fix(devin): stop the header deadline from killing turns that are still generating - #4450
Conversation
…l generating
A live swe-2 turn at high effort died with
`stream disconnected before completion: cloud-direct: time-to-first-byte
timeout (60000ms)`. Three such failures were logged, all at ~60s with no
output, while a sibling call on the same account was still alive at 76s.
The upstream was healthy; we hung up on it.
The comment claimed the timer was cancelled "once any byte arrives". It was
not: the timer is cleared in the finally that runs when `await fetch`
resolves, and fetch resolves on response headers. Cognition withholds the
headers until the model emits its first token, so the 60s budget was a
generation deadline on the pre-header window. Nothing is on the wire before
headers, so "time-to-first-byte" also named a measurement a client cannot
take; the constant and the message are renamed to say what they bound.
Body silence after headers was never the problem: the per-chunk idle timer
covers it at 120s and is untouched. The header budget being the shorter of
the two made the pre-header window the tightest part of a long turn, which
is backwards. It now defaults to 300s and is overridable through
OPENCODEX_DEVIN_TTFB_MS, clamped so a stray value cannot wedge a turn.
The failure is also now classifiable. The old abort raised a bare Error, so
devinErrorClassification returned {} and src/lib/errors.ts had to guess the
status from message text. Bun rejects the fetch with its own AbortError
rather than handing back signal.reason, so attaching a typed error to
abort() would be discarded; a flag plus an explicit throw in the catch is
what actually produces a CloudChatError carrying 504. A caller cancel leaves
the flag false and re-throws unchanged.
`timeout: 0` makes our deadline the single authority on this hop, matching
src/server/responses/fetch-helpers.ts. The tradeoff is recorded in the
constant: a peer that goes silent at the TCP level without RST/FIN now hangs
for the budget instead of 60s, and this timer is the only bound left, so it
must not be removed. A peer that actually dies still rejects immediately.
Local product tests, typecheck, build and install: NOT RUN.

This changes the Devin adapter's streaming deadline and error-mapping contract, but none of the structure/ documents mapped to src/adapters/ in structure/INDEX.md are updated. Record the response-header deadline, body-idle separation, and resulting 504 classification in the mapped owners so the maintainer source of truth remains synchronized with the runtime.

Operators can now change request behavior through OPENCODEX_DEVIN_TTFB_MS, including reducing the deadline or extending it to 30 minutes, but the option and the new five-minute default appear only in source and tests. Add this setting and its accepted range/fallback semantics to the public Devin adapter documentation, keeping translated pages consistent, so users can discover and safely configure it.
