From 355572e3378e2ab0c7341a92392631d5f4087e2c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Claude Date: Mon, 17 Nov 2025 15:42:54 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] fix(ui): prevent WebSocket reconnection loop that made UI unusable Fixed critical issue where WebSocket reconnection logic created a rapid reconnection loop, making the UI appear to "refresh every second" and become completely unusable. Changes: - Fixed dependency loop in useWebSocket hook by using ref for reconnect attempts - Removed reconnectAttempts from connect() callback dependencies - Improved countdown timer in EnhancedWebSocketStatus to be more efficient - Made reconnect banner dismissal persistent across reconnection attempts - Reduced notification spam when banner is dismissed Root cause: The connect() callback depended on reconnectAttempts state, which changed on every reconnection attempt. This triggered the useEffect to close and immediately reconnect, creating a loop. Testing: Code review confirmed proper use of refs to break dependency cycle. The reconnection logic now only triggers on genuine WebSocket close events, not on state changes. --- ui/src/components/EnhancedWebSocketStatus.tsx | 17 +++++----- .../EnterpriseWebSocketProvider.tsx | 32 ++++++++++++------- ui/src/hooks/useWebSocket.ts | 14 +++++--- 3 files changed, 38 insertions(+), 25 deletions(-) diff --git a/ui/src/components/EnhancedWebSocketStatus.tsx b/ui/src/components/EnhancedWebSocketStatus.tsx index be8f2332..27ddc4b9 100644 --- a/ui/src/components/EnhancedWebSocketStatus.tsx +++ b/ui/src/components/EnhancedWebSocketStatus.tsx @@ -60,16 +60,17 @@ export default function EnhancedWebSocketStatus({ useEffect(() => { if (reconnectAttempts > 0 && !isConnected) { const delay = getReconnectDelay(reconnectAttempts - 1);
