[core] Trace fresh workflow replay phases

[NathanColosimo]

Summary

Added spans:

• workflow.vm.create_context — Node VM context creation plus sandbox globals and runtime shims.
• workflow.bundle.compile — obtains or creates cached vm.Script objects. Attribute: workflow.bundle.compile.cache_hit.
• workflow.bundle.evaluate — evaluates the compiled bundle inside the new context and retrieves the selected workflow function. This is bundle initialization, not yet the workflow invocation.
• workflow.input.hydrate — residual payload preparation plus deserializing workflow arguments into VM-local values.
• workflow.replay.execute — invokes the workflow function and runs it until completion or suspension.

Consolidate event-loading telemetry into:

• workflow.replay.load, replacing workflow.loadEvents and workflow.loadNewEvents.
• workflow.replay.load.source identifies run_started, hook_preload, events_list, or events_list_incremental.
• It includes event count, page count, and run ID.

⚠️ Flaky E2E Tests (passed on retry)

These tests failed at least once and passed on a retry. A recurring entry here is a real race worth investigating.

• addTenWorkflow (express)
• addTenWorkflow (fastify)
• cancelRun via CLI - cancelling a running workflow (nextjs-turbopack)
• cancelRun via CLI - cancelling a running workflow (nextjs-webpack)
• hookWithSleepFinalStepWorkflow - step only on final payload (nextjs-turbopack)
• hookWorkflow (tanstack-start)
• hookWorkflow (vite)

🛠 Infra Events (absorbed by the harness)

Platform anomalies the e2e harness detected and worked around (e.g. a run the queue never picked up, replaced by a fresh run). Clustered timestamps indicate a backend blip; a steady drip indicates a platform issue worth escalating.

ℹ️ Metric definitions & methodology

_{Streams: first-chunk RTT (the stream-open path, before any buffering/backpressure), CRTT percentiles, and worst delivery stall (CDV max). Cells are medians across iterations; per-run values in the artifacts. No 🔴/🟢 marks until targets attach.}

_{The collapsed STSO distribution section above buckets every step gap, split inline (same warm process — pure framework overhead) vs queue-hop (fresh process — dispatch, reinit, replay). █ = main, ┃ = this run, ░ = fill.}

_{The collapsed CRTT drill-down: per-variant RTT histograms (fixed log bins, · = empty) and mean RTT/positive-CDV profile lines over stream progress and chunk size. Histograms, avgs, and profiles merge exactly across runs; p50–p99 are percentile-of-percentiles. Per-index rows live in the artifacts.}

_{Best/P75/P90/P99 deltas compare against the most recent benchmark run on main at the time of this run. 🔻 flags a delta worse than +15%, 💚 one better than −15%.}

_{Metrics — TTFS: time to first step body (in-deployment start() → first step body) · Fan-out TTFS: fan-out time to first step (in-deployment start() → first of the parallel step bodies to complete) · Fan-out TTLS: fan-out time to last step (in-deployment start() → last of the parallel step bodies to complete, i.e. when the Promise.all resolves) · STSO: step-to-step overhead (gap between consecutive step bodies) · WO: workflow overhead (whole-run time outside step bodies, in-deployment anchored) · CRTT: chunk round-trip time (per-chunk write → read latency, one clock domain: deployment → stream backend → same deployment) · CDV: chunk delay variation / delivery jitter (inter-arrival gap minus inter-write gap per seq-adjacent pair; skew-free; the row is each run's MAX positive value, so one stall moves it)}

_{Scenarios — step: one trivial no-op step, no stream; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · stream: one streaming step; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · hook + stream: registers a hook before one step, which exits turbo mode (dispatch path) · 1020 steps: 1020 trivial sequential steps; STSO is measured between consecutive steps in the given step ranges, and WO is the whole-run overhead outside step bodies · Promise.all(100 steps): 100 trivial no-op steps started together in a single Promise.all; Fan-out TTFS is the first of them to complete and Fan-out TTLS the last, both from the in-deployment clientStart, so their gap is the spread the runtime adds across the fan-out · paced control (100/s, 60B): the control: 300 tiny (~60B) deltas metronome-paced at 100/s — zero workload structure, so it reads the transport floor and flush cadence, and disambiguates transport-wide vs workload-specific when a replay row moves · size sweep (100/s, 160B-12KB): same pacing as the control with deltas padded in rotation across seven log-spaced sizes (~160B–12KB) — rotation decouples size from stream position, so it isolates whether chunk size causes latency · replay gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t (1x): raw provider SSE cadence captured at the AI gateway boundary (gpt-5.4-nano, the most popular gateway model; per-token deltas p50 208B = the modal production chunk size), replayed exactly as measured — the typical customer's workload; its CDV is the typical customer's real delivery jitter · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (1x): a captured eve turn (gpt-5.6-sol, the most-used demanding eve model; ~2000 output tokens = production p50 turn length) replayed exactly as measured — eve's envelope protocol re-ships the cumulative message so sizes ramp 142B→13KB; the demanding outlier tenant's reality · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (2x): the same eve capture at 2x — the headroom/stress row; real fast-tier models emit the same chunk sizes at proportionally higher rate, so time compression is a faithful speed model · first chunk (pooled): every run's seq-0 RTT pooled across all stream scenarios — the first chunk precedes any workload differentiation, so pooling samples one shared stream-open path with exact percentiles}

_{Replay cadences (semantic sha256) — eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000teaf22f5946e7c61f3c65c7006d550df180cfabd4e706254a09f22aec0cfb420d · gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t6f24ac518b6b83ff1d0e85a5fe78230db192716d66a7fc6b2fe022752001d041}

_{🔴 marks a percentile over its target (within target is left unmarked). Targets (p75/p90/p99, ms) — TTFS 200/300/600}

_{All timestamps are deployment-side; runs are triggered in-deployment, so the CI runner and api.vercel.com sit outside every measured window. TTFS = start() → first step body (includes dispatch + any cold start); Fan-out TTFS/TTLS = first/last step completion of one Promise.all from the same anchor (the gap is the runtime’s fan-out spread); STSO/WO between step bodies; CRTT inside the workflow (excludes the api.vercel.com read path).}

_{Cold starts stay in the numbers (real bursty-workload latency, inflates P75+); Best is the warm floor.}

[alangenfeld]

do you have an example of what this ends up looking like?

preserve the active workflow trace across retained VM resumptions

in particular sounds like it could create hard to parse traces but theres a good chance im not interpreting it correctly

No backport to stable for 1c28eec (AI decision).

This commit adds new observability surface — five new spans (workflow.vm.create_context, workflow.bundle.compile, workflow.bundle.evaluate, workflow.input.hydrate, workflow.replay.execute), new semantic-convention attributes, and a renamed/consolidated workflow.replay.load span — which is feature work rather than a fix to broken behavior on stable. It also reshapes internal APIs (getCachedWorkflowScript now returns { script, cacheHit }, runCachedWorkflowScript removed) and renames existing spans (workflow.loadEvents/workflow.loadNewEvents), a behavior change for anyone querying those span names. The only fix-like part is describeThrownValue, which keeps span status handling safe when a non-Error value is thrown; a human could split that out and force it through via workflow_dispatch if desired.

To override, re-run the Backport to stable workflow manually via workflow_dispatch and paste this commit SHA into the ref input:

[NathanColosimo]

Summary

Added spans:

• workflow.vm.create_context — Node VM context creation plus sandbox globals and runtime shims.
• workflow.bundle.compile — obtains or creates cached vm.Script objects. Attribute: workflow.bundle.compile.cache_hit.
• workflow.bundle.evaluate — evaluates the compiled bundle inside the new context and retrieves the selected workflow function. This is bundle initialization, not yet the workflow invocation.
• workflow.input.hydrate — residual payload preparation plus deserializing workflow arguments into VM-local values.
• workflow.replay.execute — invokes the workflow function and runs it until completion or suspension.

Consolidate event-loading telemetry into:

• workflow.replay.load, replacing workflow.loadEvents and workflow.loadNewEvents.
• workflow.replay.load.source identifies run_started, hook_preload, events_list, or events_list_incremental.
• It includes event count, page count, and run ID.

🛠 Infra Events (absorbed by the harness)

Platform anomalies the e2e harness detected and worked around (e.g. a run the queue never picked up, replaced by a fresh run). Clustered timestamps indicate a backend blip; a steady drip indicates a platform issue worth escalating.

ℹ️ Metric definitions & methodology

_{Streams: first-chunk RTT (the stream-open path, before any buffering/backpressure), CRTT percentiles, and worst delivery stall (CDV max). Cells are medians across iterations; per-run values in the artifacts. No 🔴/🟢 marks until targets attach.}

_{The collapsed STSO distribution section above buckets every step gap, split inline (same warm process — pure framework overhead) vs queue-hop (fresh process — dispatch, reinit, replay). █ = main, ┃ = this run, ░ = fill.}

_{The collapsed CRTT drill-down: per-variant RTT histograms (fixed log bins, · = empty) and mean RTT/positive-CDV profile lines over stream progress and chunk size. Histograms, avgs, and profiles merge exactly across runs; p50–p99 are percentile-of-percentiles. Per-index rows live in the artifacts.}

_{Best/P75/P90/P99 deltas compare against the most recent benchmark run on main at the time of this run. 🔻 flags a delta worse than +15%, 💚 one better than −15%.}

_{Metrics — TTFS: time to first step body (in-deployment start() → first step body) · Fan-out TTFS: fan-out time to first step (in-deployment start() → first of the parallel step bodies to complete) · Fan-out TTLS: fan-out time to last step (in-deployment start() → last of the parallel step bodies to complete, i.e. when the Promise.all resolves) · STSO: step-to-step overhead (gap between consecutive step bodies) · WO: workflow overhead (whole-run time outside step bodies, in-deployment anchored) · CRTT: chunk round-trip time (per-chunk write → read latency, one clock domain: deployment → stream backend → same deployment) · CDV: chunk delay variation / delivery jitter (inter-arrival gap minus inter-write gap per seq-adjacent pair; skew-free; the row is each run's MAX positive value, so one stall moves it)}

_{Scenarios — step: one trivial no-op step, no stream; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · stream: one streaming step; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · hook + stream: registers a hook before one step, which exits turbo mode (dispatch path) · 1020 steps: 1020 trivial sequential steps; STSO is measured between consecutive steps in the given step ranges, and WO is the whole-run overhead outside step bodies · Promise.all(100 steps): 100 trivial no-op steps started together in a single Promise.all; Fan-out TTFS is the first of them to complete and Fan-out TTLS the last, both from the in-deployment clientStart, so their gap is the spread the runtime adds across the fan-out · paced control (100/s, 60B): the control: 300 tiny (~60B) deltas metronome-paced at 100/s — zero workload structure, so it reads the transport floor and flush cadence, and disambiguates transport-wide vs workload-specific when a replay row moves · size sweep (100/s, 160B-12KB): same pacing as the control with deltas padded in rotation across seven log-spaced sizes (~160B–12KB) — rotation decouples size from stream position, so it isolates whether chunk size causes latency · replay gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t (1x): raw provider SSE cadence captured at the AI gateway boundary (gpt-5.4-nano, the most popular gateway model; per-token deltas p50 208B = the modal production chunk size), replayed exactly as measured — the typical customer's workload; its CDV is the typical customer's real delivery jitter · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (1x): a captured eve turn (gpt-5.6-sol, the most-used demanding eve model; ~2000 output tokens = production p50 turn length) replayed exactly as measured — eve's envelope protocol re-ships the cumulative message so sizes ramp 142B→13KB; the demanding outlier tenant's reality · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (2x): the same eve capture at 2x — the headroom/stress row; real fast-tier models emit the same chunk sizes at proportionally higher rate, so time compression is a faithful speed model · first chunk (pooled): every run's seq-0 RTT pooled across all stream scenarios — the first chunk precedes any workload differentiation, so pooling samples one shared stream-open path with exact percentiles}

_{Replay cadences (semantic sha256) — eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000teaf22f5946e7c61f3c65c7006d550df180cfabd4e706254a09f22aec0cfb420d · gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t6f24ac518b6b83ff1d0e85a5fe78230db192716d66a7fc6b2fe022752001d041}

_{🔴 marks a percentile over its target (within target is left unmarked). Targets (p75/p90/p99, ms) — TTFS 200/300/600}

_{All timestamps are deployment-side; runs are triggered in-deployment, so the CI runner and api.vercel.com sit outside every measured window. TTFS = start() → first step body (includes dispatch + any cold start); Fan-out TTFS/TTLS = first/last step completion of one Promise.all from the same anchor (the gap is the runtime’s fan-out spread); STSO/WO between step bodies; CRTT inside the workflow (excludes the api.vercel.com read path).}

_{Cold starts stay in the numbers (real bursty-workload latency, inflates P75+); Best is the warm floor.}

do you have an example of what this ends up looking like?

preserve the active workflow trace across retained VM resumptions

in particular sounds like it could create hard to parse traces but theres a good chance im not interpreting it correctly

No backport to stable for 1c28eec (AI decision).

This commit adds new observability surface — five new spans (workflow.vm.create_context, workflow.bundle.compile, workflow.bundle.evaluate, workflow.input.hydrate, workflow.replay.execute), new semantic-convention attributes, and a renamed/consolidated workflow.replay.load span — which is feature work rather than a fix to broken behavior on stable. It also reshapes internal APIs (getCachedWorkflowScript now returns { script, cacheHit }, runCachedWorkflowScript removed) and renames existing spans (workflow.loadEvents/workflow.loadNewEvents), a behavior change for anyone querying those span names. The only fix-like part is describeThrownValue, which keeps span status handling safe when a non-Error value is thrown; a human could split that out and force it through via workflow_dispatch if desired.

To override, re-run the Backport to stable workflow manually via workflow_dispatch and paste this commit SHA into the ref input:

1c28eeca159f022c73912326baf78d69152db876

[NathanColosimo]

Summary

Added spans:

• workflow.vm.create_context — Node VM context creation plus sandbox globals and runtime shims.
• workflow.bundle.compile — obtains or creates cached vm.Script objects. Attribute: workflow.bundle.compile.cache_hit.
• workflow.bundle.evaluate — evaluates the compiled bundle inside the new context and retrieves the selected workflow function. This is bundle initialization, not yet the workflow invocation.
• workflow.input.hydrate — residual payload preparation plus deserializing workflow arguments into VM-local values.
• workflow.replay.execute — invokes the workflow function and runs it until completion or suspension.

Consolidate event-loading telemetry into:

• workflow.replay.load, replacing workflow.loadEvents and workflow.loadNewEvents.
• workflow.replay.load.source identifies run_started, hook_preload, events_list, or events_list_incremental.
• It includes event count, page count, and run ID.

⚠️ Flaky E2E Tests (passed on retry)

These tests failed at least once and passed on a retry. A recurring entry here is a real race worth investigating.

🛠 Infra Events (absorbed by the harness)

Platform anomalies the e2e harness detected and worked around (e.g. a run the queue never picked up, replaced by a fresh run). Clustered timestamps indicate a backend blip; a steady drip indicates a platform issue worth escalating.

_{Streams: first-chunk RTT (the stream-open path, before any buffering/backpressure), CRTT percentiles, and worst delivery stall (CDV max). Cells are medians across iterations; per-run values in the artifacts. No 🔴/🟢 marks until targets attach.}

_{The collapsed STSO distribution section above buckets every step gap, split inline (same warm process — pure framework overhead) vs queue-hop (fresh process — dispatch, reinit, replay). █ = main, ┃ = this run, ░ = fill.}

_{The collapsed CRTT drill-down: per-variant RTT histograms (fixed log bins, · = empty) and mean RTT/positive-CDV profile lines over stream progress and chunk size. Histograms, avgs, and profiles merge exactly across runs; p50–p99 are percentile-of-percentiles. Per-index rows live in the artifacts.}

_{Best/P75/P90/P99 deltas compare against the most recent benchmark run on main at the time of this run. 🔻 flags a delta worse than +15%, 💚 one better than −15%.}

_{Metrics — TTFS: time to first step body (in-deployment start() → first step body) · Fan-out TTFS: fan-out time to first step (in-deployment start() → first of the parallel step bodies to complete) · Fan-out TTLS: fan-out time to last step (in-deployment start() → last of the parallel step bodies to complete, i.e. when the Promise.all resolves) · STSO: step-to-step overhead (gap between consecutive step bodies) · WO: workflow overhead (whole-run time outside step bodies, in-deployment anchored) · CRTT: chunk round-trip time (per-chunk write → read latency, one clock domain: deployment → stream backend → same deployment) · CDV: chunk delay variation / delivery jitter (inter-arrival gap minus inter-write gap per seq-adjacent pair; skew-free; the row is each run's MAX positive value, so one stall moves it)}

_{Scenarios — step: one trivial no-op step, no stream; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · stream: one streaming step; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · hook + stream: registers a hook before one step, which exits turbo mode (dispatch path) · 1020 steps: 1020 trivial sequential steps; STSO is measured between consecutive steps in the given step ranges, and WO is the whole-run overhead outside step bodies · Promise.all(100 steps): 100 trivial no-op steps started together in a single Promise.all; Fan-out TTFS is the first of them to complete and Fan-out TTLS the last, both from the in-deployment clientStart, so their gap is the spread the runtime adds across the fan-out · paced control (100/s, 60B): the control: 300 tiny (~60B) deltas metronome-paced at 100/s — zero workload structure, so it reads the transport floor and flush cadence, and disambiguates transport-wide vs workload-specific when a replay row moves · size sweep (100/s, 160B-12KB): same pacing as the control with deltas padded in rotation across seven log-spaced sizes (~160B–12KB) — rotation decouples size from stream position, so it isolates whether chunk size causes latency · replay gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t (1x): raw provider SSE cadence captured at the AI gateway boundary (gpt-5.4-nano, the most popular gateway model; per-token deltas p50 208B = the modal production chunk size), replayed exactly as measured — the typical customer's workload; its CDV is the typical customer's real delivery jitter · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (1x): a captured eve turn (gpt-5.6-sol, the most-used demanding eve model; ~2000 output tokens = production p50 turn length) replayed exactly as measured — eve's envelope protocol re-ships the cumulative message so sizes ramp 142B→13KB; the demanding outlier tenant's reality · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (2x): the same eve capture at 2x — the headroom/stress row; real fast-tier models emit the same chunk sizes at proportionally higher rate, so time compression is a faithful speed model · first chunk (pooled): every run's seq-0 RTT pooled across all stream scenarios — the first chunk precedes any workload differentiation, so pooling samples one shared stream-open path with exact percentiles}

_{Replay cadences (semantic sha256) — eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000teaf22f5946e7c61f3c65c7006d550df180cfabd4e706254a09f22aec0cfb420d · gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t6f24ac518b6b83ff1d0e85a5fe78230db192716d66a7fc6b2fe022752001d041}

_{🔴 marks a percentile over its target (within target is left unmarked). Targets (p75/p90/p99, ms) — TTFS 200/300/600}

_{All timestamps are deployment-side; runs are triggered in-deployment, so the CI runner and api.vercel.com sit outside every measured window. TTFS = start() → first step body (includes dispatch + any cold start); Fan-out TTFS/TTLS = first/last step completion of one Promise.all from the same anchor (the gap is the runtime’s fan-out spread); STSO/WO between step bodies; CRTT inside the workflow (excludes the api.vercel.com read path).}

_{Cold starts stay in the numbers (real bursty-workload latency, inflates P75+); Best is the warm floor.}

[alangenfeld]

do you have an example of what this ends up looking like?

preserve the active workflow trace across retained VM resumptions

in particular sounds like it could create hard to parse traces but theres a good chance im not interpreting it correctly

No backport to stable for 1c28eec (AI decision).

This commit adds new observability surface — five new spans (workflow.vm.create_context, workflow.bundle.compile, workflow.bundle.evaluate, workflow.input.hydrate, workflow.replay.execute), new semantic-convention attributes, and a renamed/consolidated workflow.replay.load span — which is feature work rather than a fix to broken behavior on stable. It also reshapes internal APIs (getCachedWorkflowScript now returns { script, cacheHit }, runCachedWorkflowScript removed) and renames existing spans (workflow.loadEvents/workflow.loadNewEvents), a behavior change for anyone querying those span names. The only fix-like part is describeThrownValue, which keeps span status handling safe when a non-Error value is thrown; a human could split that out and force it through via workflow_dispatch if desired.

To override, re-run the Backport to stable workflow manually via workflow_dispatch and paste this commit SHA into the ref input:

[NathanColosimo]

Summary

Added spans:

• workflow.vm.create_context — Node VM context creation plus sandbox globals and runtime shims.
• workflow.bundle.compile — obtains or creates cached vm.Script objects. Attribute: workflow.bundle.compile.cache_hit.
• workflow.bundle.evaluate — evaluates the compiled bundle inside the new context and retrieves the selected workflow function. This is bundle initialization, not yet the workflow invocation.
• workflow.input.hydrate — residual payload preparation plus deserializing workflow arguments into VM-local values.
• workflow.replay.execute — invokes the workflow function and runs it until completion or suspension.

Consolidate event-loading telemetry into:

• workflow.replay.load, replacing workflow.loadEvents and workflow.loadNewEvents.
• workflow.replay.load.source identifies run_started, hook_preload, events_list, or events_list_incremental.
• It includes event count, page count, and run ID.

🛠 Infra Events (absorbed by the harness)

Platform anomalies the e2e harness detected and worked around (e.g. a run the queue never picked up, replaced by a fresh run). Clustered timestamps indicate a backend blip; a steady drip indicates a platform issue worth escalating.

ℹ️ Metric definitions & methodology

_{Streams: first-chunk RTT (the stream-open path, before any buffering/backpressure), CRTT percentiles, and worst delivery stall (CDV max). Cells are medians across iterations; per-run values in the artifacts. No 🔴/🟢 marks until targets attach.}

_{The collapsed STSO distribution section above buckets every step gap, split inline (same warm process — pure framework overhead) vs queue-hop (fresh process — dispatch, reinit, replay). █ = main, ┃ = this run, ░ = fill.}

_{The collapsed CRTT drill-down: per-variant RTT histograms (fixed log bins, · = empty) and mean RTT/positive-CDV profile lines over stream progress and chunk size. Histograms, avgs, and profiles merge exactly across runs; p50–p99 are percentile-of-percentiles. Per-index rows live in the artifacts.}

_{Best/P75/P90/P99 deltas compare against the most recent benchmark run on main at the time of this run. 🔻 flags a delta worse than +15%, 💚 one better than −15%.}

_{Metrics — TTFS: time to first step body (in-deployment start() → first step body) · Fan-out TTFS: fan-out time to first step (in-deployment start() → first of the parallel step bodies to complete) · Fan-out TTLS: fan-out time to last step (in-deployment start() → last of the parallel step bodies to complete, i.e. when the Promise.all resolves) · STSO: step-to-step overhead (gap between consecutive step bodies) · WO: workflow overhead (whole-run time outside step bodies, in-deployment anchored) · CRTT: chunk round-trip time (per-chunk write → read latency, one clock domain: deployment → stream backend → same deployment) · CDV: chunk delay variation / delivery jitter (inter-arrival gap minus inter-write gap per seq-adjacent pair; skew-free; the row is each run's MAX positive value, so one stall moves it)}

_{Scenarios — step: one trivial no-op step, no stream; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · stream: one streaming step; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · hook + stream: registers a hook before one step, which exits turbo mode (dispatch path) · 1020 steps: 1020 trivial sequential steps; STSO is measured between consecutive steps in the given step ranges, and WO is the whole-run overhead outside step bodies · Promise.all(100 steps): 100 trivial no-op steps started together in a single Promise.all; Fan-out TTFS is the first of them to complete and Fan-out TTLS the last, both from the in-deployment clientStart, so their gap is the spread the runtime adds across the fan-out · paced control (100/s, 60B): the control: 300 tiny (~60B) deltas metronome-paced at 100/s — zero workload structure, so it reads the transport floor and flush cadence, and disambiguates transport-wide vs workload-specific when a replay row moves · size sweep (100/s, 160B-12KB): same pacing as the control with deltas padded in rotation across seven log-spaced sizes (~160B–12KB) — rotation decouples size from stream position, so it isolates whether chunk size causes latency · replay gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t (1x): raw provider SSE cadence captured at the AI gateway boundary (gpt-5.4-nano, the most popular gateway model; per-token deltas p50 208B = the modal production chunk size), replayed exactly as measured — the typical customer's workload; its CDV is the typical customer's real delivery jitter · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (1x): a captured eve turn (gpt-5.6-sol, the most-used demanding eve model; ~2000 output tokens = production p50 turn length) replayed exactly as measured — eve's envelope protocol re-ships the cumulative message so sizes ramp 142B→13KB; the demanding outlier tenant's reality · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (2x): the same eve capture at 2x — the headroom/stress row; real fast-tier models emit the same chunk sizes at proportionally higher rate, so time compression is a faithful speed model · first chunk (pooled): every run's seq-0 RTT pooled across all stream scenarios — the first chunk precedes any workload differentiation, so pooling samples one shared stream-open path with exact percentiles}

_{Replay cadences (semantic sha256) — eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000teaf22f5946e7c61f3c65c7006d550df180cfabd4e706254a09f22aec0cfb420d · gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t6f24ac518b6b83ff1d0e85a5fe78230db192716d66a7fc6b2fe022752001d041}

_{🔴 marks a percentile over its target (within target is left unmarked). Targets (p75/p90/p99, ms) — TTFS 200/300/600}

_{All timestamps are deployment-side; runs are triggered in-deployment, so the CI runner and api.vercel.com sit outside every measured window. TTFS = start() → first step body (includes dispatch + any cold start); Fan-out TTFS/TTLS = first/last step completion of one Promise.all from the same anchor (the gap is the runtime’s fan-out spread); STSO/WO between step bodies; CRTT inside the workflow (excludes the api.vercel.com read path).}

_{Cold starts stay in the numbers (real bursty-workload latency, inflates P75+); Best is the warm floor.}

[alangenfeld]

do you have an example of what this ends up looking like?

preserve the active workflow trace across retained VM resumptions

in particular sounds like it could create hard to parse traces but theres a good chance im not interpreting it correctly

No backport to stable for 1c28eec (AI decision).

This commit adds new observability surface — five new spans (workflow.vm.create_context, workflow.bundle.compile, workflow.bundle.evaluate, workflow.input.hydrate, workflow.replay.execute), new semantic-convention attributes, and a renamed/consolidated workflow.replay.load span — which is feature work rather than a fix to broken behavior on stable. It also reshapes internal APIs (getCachedWorkflowScript now returns { script, cacheHit }, runCachedWorkflowScript removed) and renames existing spans (workflow.loadEvents/workflow.loadNewEvents), a behavior change for anyone querying those span names. The only fix-like part is describeThrownValue, which keeps span status handling safe when a non-Error value is thrown; a human could split that out and force it through via workflow_dispatch if desired.

To override, re-run the Backport to stable workflow manually via workflow_dispatch and paste this commit SHA into the ref input:

[NathanColosimo]

Summary

Added spans:

• workflow.vm.create_context — Node VM context creation plus sandbox globals and runtime shims.
• workflow.bundle.compile — obtains or creates cached vm.Script objects. Attribute: workflow.bundle.compile.cache_hit.
• workflow.bundle.evaluate — evaluates the compiled bundle inside the new context and retrieves the selected workflow function. This is bundle initialization, not yet the workflow invocation.
• workflow.input.hydrate — residual payload preparation plus deserializing workflow arguments into VM-local values.
• workflow.replay.execute — invokes the workflow function and runs it until completion or suspension.

Consolidate event-loading telemetry into:

• workflow.replay.load, replacing workflow.loadEvents and workflow.loadNewEvents.
• workflow.replay.load.source identifies run_started, hook_preload, events_list, or events_list_incremental.
• It includes event count, page count, and run ID.

🛠 Infra Events (absorbed by the harness)

Platform anomalies the e2e harness detected and worked around (e.g. a run the queue never picked up, replaced by a fresh run). Clustered timestamps indicate a backend blip; a steady drip indicates a platform issue worth escalating.

ℹ️ Metric definitions & methodology

_{Streams: first-chunk RTT (the stream-open path, before any buffering/backpressure), CRTT percentiles, and worst delivery stall (CDV max). Cells are medians across iterations; per-run values in the artifacts. No 🔴/🟢 marks until targets attach.}

_{The collapsed STSO distribution section above buckets every step gap, split inline (same warm process — pure framework overhead) vs queue-hop (fresh process — dispatch, reinit, replay). █ = main, ┃ = this run, ░ = fill.}

_{The collapsed CRTT drill-down: per-variant RTT histograms (fixed log bins, · = empty) and mean RTT/positive-CDV profile lines over stream progress and chunk size. Histograms, avgs, and profiles merge exactly across runs; p50–p99 are percentile-of-percentiles. Per-index rows live in the artifacts.}

_{Best/P75/P90/P99 deltas compare against the most recent benchmark run on main at the time of this run. 🔻 flags a delta worse than +15%, 💚 one better than −15%.}

_{Metrics — TTFS: time to first step body (in-deployment start() → first step body) · Fan-out TTFS: fan-out time to first step (in-deployment start() → first of the parallel step bodies to complete) · Fan-out TTLS: fan-out time to last step (in-deployment start() → last of the parallel step bodies to complete, i.e. when the Promise.all resolves) · STSO: step-to-step overhead (gap between consecutive step bodies) · WO: workflow overhead (whole-run time outside step bodies, in-deployment anchored) · CRTT: chunk round-trip time (per-chunk write → read latency, one clock domain: deployment → stream backend → same deployment) · CDV: chunk delay variation / delivery jitter (inter-arrival gap minus inter-write gap per seq-adjacent pair; skew-free; the row is each run's MAX positive value, so one stall moves it)}

_{Scenarios — step: one trivial no-op step, no stream; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · stream: one streaming step; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · hook + stream: registers a hook before one step, which exits turbo mode (dispatch path) · 1020 steps: 1020 trivial sequential steps; STSO is measured between consecutive steps in the given step ranges, and WO is the whole-run overhead outside step bodies · Promise.all(100 steps): 100 trivial no-op steps started together in a single Promise.all; Fan-out TTFS is the first of them to complete and Fan-out TTLS the last, both from the in-deployment clientStart, so their gap is the spread the runtime adds across the fan-out · paced control (100/s, 60B): the control: 300 tiny (~60B) deltas metronome-paced at 100/s — zero workload structure, so it reads the transport floor and flush cadence, and disambiguates transport-wide vs workload-specific when a replay row moves · size sweep (100/s, 160B-12KB): same pacing as the control with deltas padded in rotation across seven log-spaced sizes (~160B–12KB) — rotation decouples size from stream position, so it isolates whether chunk size causes latency · replay gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t (1x): raw provider SSE cadence captured at the AI gateway boundary (gpt-5.4-nano, the most popular gateway model; per-token deltas p50 208B = the modal production chunk size), replayed exactly as measured — the typical customer's workload; its CDV is the typical customer's real delivery jitter · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (1x): a captured eve turn (gpt-5.6-sol, the most-used demanding eve model; ~2000 output tokens = production p50 turn length) replayed exactly as measured — eve's envelope protocol re-ships the cumulative message so sizes ramp 142B→13KB; the demanding outlier tenant's reality · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (2x): the same eve capture at 2x — the headroom/stress row; real fast-tier models emit the same chunk sizes at proportionally higher rate, so time compression is a faithful speed model · first chunk (pooled): every run's seq-0 RTT pooled across all stream scenarios — the first chunk precedes any workload differentiation, so pooling samples one shared stream-open path with exact percentiles}

_{Replay cadences (semantic sha256) — eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000teaf22f5946e7c61f3c65c7006d550df180cfabd4e706254a09f22aec0cfb420d · gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t6f24ac518b6b83ff1d0e85a5fe78230db192716d66a7fc6b2fe022752001d041}

_{🔴 marks a percentile over its target (within target is left unmarked). Targets (p75/p90/p99, ms) — TTFS 200/300/600}

_{All timestamps are deployment-side; runs are triggered in-deployment, so the CI runner and api.vercel.com sit outside every measured window. TTFS = start() → first step body (includes dispatch + any cold start); Fan-out TTFS/TTLS = first/last step completion of one Promise.all from the same anchor (the gap is the runtime’s fan-out spread); STSO/WO between step bodies; CRTT inside the workflow (excludes the api.vercel.com read path).}

_{Cold starts stay in the numbers (real bursty-workload latency, inflates P75+); Best is the warm floor.}

[alangenfeld]

do you have an example of what this ends up looking like?

preserve the active workflow trace across retained VM resumptions

in particular sounds like it could create hard to parse traces but theres a good chance im not interpreting it correctly

No backport to stable for 1c28eec (AI decision).

This commit adds new observability surface — five new spans (workflow.vm.create_context, workflow.bundle.compile, workflow.bundle.evaluate, workflow.input.hydrate, workflow.replay.execute), new semantic-convention attributes, and a renamed/consolidated workflow.replay.load span — which is feature work rather than a fix to broken behavior on stable. It also reshapes internal APIs (getCachedWorkflowScript now returns { script, cacheHit }, runCachedWorkflowScript removed) and renames existing spans (workflow.loadEvents/workflow.loadNewEvents), a behavior change for anyone querying those span names. The only fix-like part is describeThrownValue, which keeps span status handling safe when a non-Error value is thrown; a human could split that out and force it through via workflow_dispatch if desired.

To override, re-run the Backport to stable workflow manually via workflow_dispatch and paste this commit SHA into the ref input:

[NathanColosimo]

Summary

Added spans:

• workflow.vm.create_context — Node VM context creation plus sandbox globals and runtime shims.
• workflow.bundle.compile — obtains or creates cached vm.Script objects. Attribute: workflow.bundle.compile.cache_hit.
• workflow.bundle.evaluate — evaluates the compiled bundle inside the new context and retrieves the selected workflow function. This is bundle initialization, not yet the workflow invocation.
• workflow.input.hydrate — residual payload preparation plus deserializing workflow arguments into VM-local values.
• workflow.replay.execute — invokes the workflow function and runs it until completion or suspension.

Consolidate event-loading telemetry into:

• workflow.replay.load, replacing workflow.loadEvents and workflow.loadNewEvents.
• workflow.replay.load.source identifies run_started, hook_preload, events_list, or events_list_incremental.
• It includes event count, page count, and run ID.

⚠️ Flaky E2E Tests (passed on retry)

These tests failed at least once and passed on a retry. A recurring entry here is a real race worth investigating.

• addTenWorkflow (express)
• addTenWorkflow (fastify)
• cancelRun via CLI - cancelling a running workflow (nextjs-turbopack)
• cancelRun via CLI - cancelling a running workflow (nextjs-webpack)
• hookWithSleepFinalStepWorkflow - step only on final payload (nextjs-turbopack)
• hookWorkflow (tanstack-start)
• hookWorkflow (vite)

🛠 Infra Events (absorbed by the harness)

Platform anomalies the e2e harness detected and worked around (e.g. a run the queue never picked up, replaced by a fresh run). Clustered timestamps indicate a backend blip; a steady drip indicates a platform issue worth escalating.

ℹ️ Metric definitions & methodology

_{Streams: first-chunk RTT (the stream-open path, before any buffering/backpressure), CRTT percentiles, and worst delivery stall (CDV max). Cells are medians across iterations; per-run values in the artifacts. No 🔴/🟢 marks until targets attach.}

_{The collapsed STSO distribution section above buckets every step gap, split inline (same warm process — pure framework overhead) vs queue-hop (fresh process — dispatch, reinit, replay). █ = main, ┃ = this run, ░ = fill.}

_{The collapsed CRTT drill-down: per-variant RTT histograms (fixed log bins, · = empty) and mean RTT/positive-CDV profile lines over stream progress and chunk size. Histograms, avgs, and profiles merge exactly across runs; p50–p99 are percentile-of-percentiles. Per-index rows live in the artifacts.}

_{Best/P75/P90/P99 deltas compare against the most recent benchmark run on main at the time of this run. 🔻 flags a delta worse than +15%, 💚 one better than −15%.}

_{Metrics — TTFS: time to first step body (in-deployment start() → first step body) · Fan-out TTFS: fan-out time to first step (in-deployment start() → first of the parallel step bodies to complete) · Fan-out TTLS: fan-out time to last step (in-deployment start() → last of the parallel step bodies to complete, i.e. when the Promise.all resolves) · STSO: step-to-step overhead (gap between consecutive step bodies) · WO: workflow overhead (whole-run time outside step bodies, in-deployment anchored) · CRTT: chunk round-trip time (per-chunk write → read latency, one clock domain: deployment → stream backend → same deployment) · CDV: chunk delay variation / delivery jitter (inter-arrival gap minus inter-write gap per seq-adjacent pair; skew-free; the row is each run's MAX positive value, so one stall moves it)}

_{Scenarios — step: one trivial no-op step, no stream; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · stream: one streaming step; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · hook + stream: registers a hook before one step, which exits turbo mode (dispatch path) · 1020 steps: 1020 trivial sequential steps; STSO is measured between consecutive steps in the given step ranges, and WO is the whole-run overhead outside step bodies · Promise.all(100 steps): 100 trivial no-op steps started together in a single Promise.all; Fan-out TTFS is the first of them to complete and Fan-out TTLS the last, both from the in-deployment clientStart, so their gap is the spread the runtime adds across the fan-out · paced control (100/s, 60B): the control: 300 tiny (~60B) deltas metronome-paced at 100/s — zero workload structure, so it reads the transport floor and flush cadence, and disambiguates transport-wide vs workload-specific when a replay row moves · size sweep (100/s, 160B-12KB): same pacing as the control with deltas padded in rotation across seven log-spaced sizes (~160B–12KB) — rotation decouples size from stream position, so it isolates whether chunk size causes latency · replay gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t (1x): raw provider SSE cadence captured at the AI gateway boundary (gpt-5.4-nano, the most popular gateway model; per-token deltas p50 208B = the modal production chunk size), replayed exactly as measured — the typical customer's workload; its CDV is the typical customer's real delivery jitter · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (1x): a captured eve turn (gpt-5.6-sol, the most-used demanding eve model; ~2000 output tokens = production p50 turn length) replayed exactly as measured — eve's envelope protocol re-ships the cumulative message so sizes ramp 142B→13KB; the demanding outlier tenant's reality · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (2x): the same eve capture at 2x — the headroom/stress row; real fast-tier models emit the same chunk sizes at proportionally higher rate, so time compression is a faithful speed model · first chunk (pooled): every run's seq-0 RTT pooled across all stream scenarios — the first chunk precedes any workload differentiation, so pooling samples one shared stream-open path with exact percentiles}

_{Replay cadences (semantic sha256) — eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000teaf22f5946e7c61f3c65c7006d550df180cfabd4e706254a09f22aec0cfb420d · gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t6f24ac518b6b83ff1d0e85a5fe78230db192716d66a7fc6b2fe022752001d041}

_{🔴 marks a percentile over its target (within target is left unmarked). Targets (p75/p90/p99, ms) — TTFS 200/300/600}

_{All timestamps are deployment-side; runs are triggered in-deployment, so the CI runner and api.vercel.com sit outside every measured window. TTFS = start() → first step body (includes dispatch + any cold start); Fan-out TTFS/TTLS = first/last step completion of one Promise.all from the same anchor (the gap is the runtime’s fan-out spread); STSO/WO between step bodies; CRTT inside the workflow (excludes the api.vercel.com read path).}

_{Cold starts stay in the numbers (real bursty-workload latency, inflates P75+); Best is the warm floor.}

[alangenfeld]

do you have an example of what this ends up looking like?

preserve the active workflow trace across retained VM resumptions

in particular sounds like it could create hard to parse traces but theres a good chance im not interpreting it correctly

No backport to stable for 1c28eec (AI decision).

This commit adds new observability surface — five new spans (workflow.vm.create_context, workflow.bundle.compile, workflow.bundle.evaluate, workflow.input.hydrate, workflow.replay.execute), new semantic-convention attributes, and a renamed/consolidated workflow.replay.load span — which is feature work rather than a fix to broken behavior on stable. It also reshapes internal APIs (getCachedWorkflowScript now returns { script, cacheHit }, runCachedWorkflowScript removed) and renames existing spans (workflow.loadEvents/workflow.loadNewEvents), a behavior change for anyone querying those span names. The only fix-like part is describeThrownValue, which keeps span status handling safe when a non-Error value is thrown; a human could split that out and force it through via workflow_dispatch if desired.

To override, re-run the Backport to stable workflow manually via workflow_dispatch and paste this commit SHA into the ref input:

1c28eeca159f022c73912326baf78d69152db876

[NathanColosimo]

Summary

Added spans:

• workflow.vm.create_context — Node VM context creation plus sandbox globals and runtime shims.
• workflow.bundle.compile — obtains or creates cached vm.Script objects. Attribute: workflow.bundle.compile.cache_hit.
• workflow.bundle.evaluate — evaluates the compiled bundle inside the new context and retrieves the selected workflow function. This is bundle initialization, not yet the workflow invocation.
• workflow.input.hydrate — residual payload preparation plus deserializing workflow arguments into VM-local values.
• workflow.replay.execute — invokes the workflow function and runs it until completion or suspension.

Consolidate event-loading telemetry into:

• workflow.replay.load, replacing workflow.loadEvents and workflow.loadNewEvents.
• workflow.replay.load.source identifies run_started, hook_preload, events_list, or events_list_incremental.
• It includes event count, page count, and run ID.

🛠 Infra Events (absorbed by the harness)

Platform anomalies the e2e harness detected and worked around (e.g. a run the queue never picked up, replaced by a fresh run). Clustered timestamps indicate a backend blip; a steady drip indicates a platform issue worth escalating.

ℹ️ Metric definitions & methodology

_{Streams: first-chunk RTT (the stream-open path, before any buffering/backpressure), CRTT percentiles, and worst delivery stall (CDV max). Cells are medians across iterations; per-run values in the artifacts. No 🔴/🟢 marks until targets attach.}

_{The collapsed STSO distribution section above buckets every step gap, split inline (same warm process — pure framework overhead) vs queue-hop (fresh process — dispatch, reinit, replay). █ = main, ┃ = this run, ░ = fill.}

_{The collapsed CRTT drill-down: per-variant RTT histograms (fixed log bins, · = empty) and mean RTT/positive-CDV profile lines over stream progress and chunk size. Histograms, avgs, and profiles merge exactly across runs; p50–p99 are percentile-of-percentiles. Per-index rows live in the artifacts.}

_{Best/P75/P90/P99 deltas compare against the most recent benchmark run on main at the time of this run. 🔻 flags a delta worse than +15%, 💚 one better than −15%.}

_{Metrics — TTFS: time to first step body (in-deployment start() → first step body) · Fan-out TTFS: fan-out time to first step (in-deployment start() → first of the parallel step bodies to complete) · Fan-out TTLS: fan-out time to last step (in-deployment start() → last of the parallel step bodies to complete, i.e. when the Promise.all resolves) · STSO: step-to-step overhead (gap between consecutive step bodies) · WO: workflow overhead (whole-run time outside step bodies, in-deployment anchored) · CRTT: chunk round-trip time (per-chunk write → read latency, one clock domain: deployment → stream backend → same deployment) · CDV: chunk delay variation / delivery jitter (inter-arrival gap minus inter-write gap per seq-adjacent pair; skew-free; the row is each run's MAX positive value, so one stall moves it)}

_{Scenarios — step: one trivial no-op step, no stream; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · stream: one streaming step; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · hook + stream: registers a hook before one step, which exits turbo mode (dispatch path) · 1020 steps: 1020 trivial sequential steps; STSO is measured between consecutive steps in the given step ranges, and WO is the whole-run overhead outside step bodies · Promise.all(100 steps): 100 trivial no-op steps started together in a single Promise.all; Fan-out TTFS is the first of them to complete and Fan-out TTLS the last, both from the in-deployment clientStart, so their gap is the spread the runtime adds across the fan-out · paced control (100/s, 60B): the control: 300 tiny (~60B) deltas metronome-paced at 100/s — zero workload structure, so it reads the transport floor and flush cadence, and disambiguates transport-wide vs workload-specific when a replay row moves · size sweep (100/s, 160B-12KB): same pacing as the control with deltas padded in rotation across seven log-spaced sizes (~160B–12KB) — rotation decouples size from stream position, so it isolates whether chunk size causes latency · replay gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t (1x): raw provider SSE cadence captured at the AI gateway boundary (gpt-5.4-nano, the most popular gateway model; per-token deltas p50 208B = the modal production chunk size), replayed exactly as measured — the typical customer's workload; its CDV is the typical customer's real delivery jitter · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (1x): a captured eve turn (gpt-5.6-sol, the most-used demanding eve model; ~2000 output tokens = production p50 turn length) replayed exactly as measured — eve's envelope protocol re-ships the cumulative message so sizes ramp 142B→13KB; the demanding outlier tenant's reality · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (2x): the same eve capture at 2x — the headroom/stress row; real fast-tier models emit the same chunk sizes at proportionally higher rate, so time compression is a faithful speed model · first chunk (pooled): every run's seq-0 RTT pooled across all stream scenarios — the first chunk precedes any workload differentiation, so pooling samples one shared stream-open path with exact percentiles}

_{Replay cadences (semantic sha256) — eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000teaf22f5946e7c61f3c65c7006d550df180cfabd4e706254a09f22aec0cfb420d · gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t6f24ac518b6b83ff1d0e85a5fe78230db192716d66a7fc6b2fe022752001d041}

_{🔴 marks a percentile over its target (within target is left unmarked). Targets (p75/p90/p99, ms) — TTFS 200/300/600}

_{All timestamps are deployment-side; runs are triggered in-deployment, so the CI runner and api.vercel.com sit outside every measured window. TTFS = start() → first step body (includes dispatch + any cold start); Fan-out TTFS/TTLS = first/last step completion of one Promise.all from the same anchor (the gap is the runtime’s fan-out spread); STSO/WO between step bodies; CRTT inside the workflow (excludes the api.vercel.com read path).}

_{Cold starts stay in the numbers (real bursty-workload latency, inflates P75+); Best is the warm floor.}

do you have an example of what this ends up looking like?

preserve the active workflow trace across retained VM resumptions

in particular sounds like it could create hard to parse traces but theres a good chance im not interpreting it correctly

No backport to stable for 1c28eec (AI decision).

This commit adds new observability surface — five new spans (workflow.vm.create_context, workflow.bundle.compile, workflow.bundle.evaluate, workflow.input.hydrate, workflow.replay.execute), new semantic-convention attributes, and a renamed/consolidated workflow.replay.load span — which is feature work rather than a fix to broken behavior on stable. It also reshapes internal APIs (getCachedWorkflowScript now returns { script, cacheHit }, runCachedWorkflowScript removed) and renames existing spans (workflow.loadEvents/workflow.loadNewEvents), a behavior change for anyone querying those span names. The only fix-like part is describeThrownValue, which keeps span status handling safe when a non-Error value is thrown; a human could split that out and force it through via workflow_dispatch if desired.

To override, re-run the Backport to stable workflow manually via workflow_dispatch and paste this commit SHA into the ref input:

1c28eeca159f022c73912326baf78d69152db876

[NathanColosimo]

Summary

Added spans:

• workflow.vm.create_context — Node VM context creation plus sandbox globals and runtime shims.
• workflow.bundle.compile — obtains or creates cached vm.Script objects. Attribute: workflow.bundle.compile.cache_hit.
• workflow.bundle.evaluate — evaluates the compiled bundle inside the new context and retrieves the selected workflow function. This is bundle initialization, not yet the workflow invocation.
• workflow.input.hydrate — residual payload preparation plus deserializing workflow arguments into VM-local values.
• workflow.replay.execute — invokes the workflow function and runs it until completion or suspension.

Consolidate event-loading telemetry into:

• workflow.replay.load, replacing workflow.loadEvents and workflow.loadNewEvents.
• workflow.replay.load.source identifies run_started, hook_preload, events_list, or events_list_incremental.
• It includes event count, page count, and run ID.

⚠️ Flaky E2E Tests (passed on retry)

These tests failed at least once and passed on a retry. A recurring entry here is a real race worth investigating.

• addTenWorkflow (express)
• addTenWorkflow (fastify)
• cancelRun via CLI - cancelling a running workflow (nextjs-turbopack)
• cancelRun via CLI - cancelling a running workflow (nextjs-webpack)
• hookWithSleepFinalStepWorkflow - step only on final payload (nextjs-turbopack)
• hookWorkflow (tanstack-start)
• hookWorkflow (vite)

🛠 Infra Events (absorbed by the harness)

Platform anomalies the e2e harness detected and worked around (e.g. a run the queue never picked up, replaced by a fresh run). Clustered timestamps indicate a backend blip; a steady drip indicates a platform issue worth escalating.

ℹ️ Metric definitions & methodology

_{Streams: first-chunk RTT (the stream-open path, before any buffering/backpressure), CRTT percentiles, and worst delivery stall (CDV max). Cells are medians across iterations; per-run values in the artifacts. No 🔴/🟢 marks until targets attach.}

_{The collapsed STSO distribution section above buckets every step gap, split inline (same warm process — pure framework overhead) vs queue-hop (fresh process — dispatch, reinit, replay). █ = main, ┃ = this run, ░ = fill.}

_{The collapsed CRTT drill-down: per-variant RTT histograms (fixed log bins, · = empty) and mean RTT/positive-CDV profile lines over stream progress and chunk size. Histograms, avgs, and profiles merge exactly across runs; p50–p99 are percentile-of-percentiles. Per-index rows live in the artifacts.}

_{Best/P75/P90/P99 deltas compare against the most recent benchmark run on main at the time of this run. 🔻 flags a delta worse than +15%, 💚 one better than −15%.}

_{Metrics — TTFS: time to first step body (in-deployment start() → first step body) · Fan-out TTFS: fan-out time to first step (in-deployment start() → first of the parallel step bodies to complete) · Fan-out TTLS: fan-out time to last step (in-deployment start() → last of the parallel step bodies to complete, i.e. when the Promise.all resolves) · STSO: step-to-step overhead (gap between consecutive step bodies) · WO: workflow overhead (whole-run time outside step bodies, in-deployment anchored) · CRTT: chunk round-trip time (per-chunk write → read latency, one clock domain: deployment → stream backend → same deployment) · CDV: chunk delay variation / delivery jitter (inter-arrival gap minus inter-write gap per seq-adjacent pair; skew-free; the row is each run's MAX positive value, so one stall moves it)}

_{Scenarios — step: one trivial no-op step, no stream; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · stream: one streaming step; no hooks, so the run stays in turbo mode (in-process fast path) · hook + stream: registers a hook before one step, which exits turbo mode (dispatch path) · 1020 steps: 1020 trivial sequential steps; STSO is measured between consecutive steps in the given step ranges, and WO is the whole-run overhead outside step bodies · Promise.all(100 steps): 100 trivial no-op steps started together in a single Promise.all; Fan-out TTFS is the first of them to complete and Fan-out TTLS the last, both from the in-deployment clientStart, so their gap is the spread the runtime adds across the fan-out · paced control (100/s, 60B): the control: 300 tiny (~60B) deltas metronome-paced at 100/s — zero workload structure, so it reads the transport floor and flush cadence, and disambiguates transport-wide vs workload-specific when a replay row moves · size sweep (100/s, 160B-12KB): same pacing as the control with deltas padded in rotation across seven log-spaced sizes (~160B–12KB) — rotation decouples size from stream position, so it isolates whether chunk size causes latency · replay gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t (1x): raw provider SSE cadence captured at the AI gateway boundary (gpt-5.4-nano, the most popular gateway model; per-token deltas p50 208B = the modal production chunk size), replayed exactly as measured — the typical customer's workload; its CDV is the typical customer's real delivery jitter · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (1x): a captured eve turn (gpt-5.6-sol, the most-used demanding eve model; ~2000 output tokens = production p50 turn length) replayed exactly as measured — eve's envelope protocol re-ships the cumulative message so sizes ramp 142B→13KB; the demanding outlier tenant's reality · replay eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000t (2x): the same eve capture at 2x — the headroom/stress row; real fast-tier models emit the same chunk sizes at proportionally higher rate, so time compression is a faithful speed model · first chunk (pooled): every run's seq-0 RTT pooled across all stream scenarios — the first chunk precedes any workload differentiation, so pooling samples one shared stream-open path with exact percentiles}

_{Replay cadences (semantic sha256) — eve-gpt-5.6-sol-2000teaf22f5946e7c61f3c65c7006d550df180cfabd4e706254a09f22aec0cfb420d · gateway-gpt-5.4-nano-2000t6f24ac518b6b83ff1d0e85a5fe78230db192716d66a7fc6b2fe022752001d041}

_{🔴 marks a percentile over its target (within target is left unmarked). Targets (p75/p90/p99, ms) — TTFS 200/300/600}

_{All timestamps are deployment-side; runs are triggered in-deployment, so the CI runner and api.vercel.com sit outside every measured window. TTFS = start() → first step body (includes dispatch + any cold start); Fan-out TTFS/TTLS = first/last step completion of one Promise.all from the same anchor (the gap is the runtime’s fan-out spread); STSO/WO between step bodies; CRTT inside the workflow (excludes the api.vercel.com read path).}

_{Cold starts stay in the numbers (real bursty-workload latency, inflates P75+); Best is the warm floor.}

do you have an example of what this ends up looking like?

preserve the active workflow trace across retained VM resumptions

in particular sounds like it could create hard to parse traces but theres a good chance im not interpreting it correctly

No backport to stable for 1c28eec (AI decision).

This commit adds new observability surface — five new spans (workflow.vm.create_context, workflow.bundle.compile, workflow.bundle.evaluate, workflow.input.hydrate, workflow.replay.execute), new semantic-convention attributes, and a renamed/consolidated workflow.replay.load span — which is feature work rather than a fix to broken behavior on stable. It also reshapes internal APIs (getCachedWorkflowScript now returns { script, cacheHit }, runCachedWorkflowScript removed) and renames existing spans (workflow.loadEvents/workflow.loadNewEvents), a behavior change for anyone querying those span names. The only fix-like part is describeThrownValue, which keeps span status handling safe when a non-Error value is thrown; a human could split that out and force it through via workflow_dispatch if desired.

To override, re-run the Backport to stable workflow manually via workflow_dispatch and paste this commit SHA into the ref input:
