🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Bound the whole peer exchange with the timeout, including the error-body read.
Effect.timeout(PEER_DELIVERY_TIMEOUT) wraps only httpClient.execute(request). For any status other than 200 or 201, yield* response.text reads the body with no bound. A2ADeliveryWorker runs attemptDelivery under drainPermit, one row at a time. Take a peer that sends a 5xx status line and then stops sending the body. That peer stalls the worker, and every local agent and human delivery on this server stops with it. PeerDirectory.readPeerRoster already applies one bound to connect, body, and decode. Apply the same bound here.

@Jacksondr5, I checked 7079dcc5ff. In apps/server/src/j5/a2a/DeliveryTransport.ts, Line 434 still applies the timeout only to httpClient.execute(request). Line 436 reads response.text outside that timeout. The error-body read can still block the delivery worker, so I’ll leave this finding open.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win
Check for a replay before remote resolution runs.
send calls preResolveRemote(input.to) before sendInternal reaches replayedSend. remoteMembership can fail with A2AParticipantArchivedError, A2AParticipantNotFoundError, A2AAmbiguousParticipantError, A2APeersUnreadError, or a PeerDirectoryError.
Here is a realistic trigger. An agent retries send_message with the same client_request_id after a timeout. Meanwhile, the remote agent was archived, or the peer roster changed. The message is already durable, but the retry now returns an error. On the local path, replayedSend runs before participantMembership, so a replay always returns the original SendMessageResult. The remote path loses that guarantee.
Run the replay lookup first, and skip peer resolution when the command already committed. sendInternal still repeats the replay check inside the transaction, so passing null for remote on a replay is safe.

The outbound path reads well and the no-cache design holds up, but two gaps let a message or a peer go missing without anyone being told. I'd fix those before merging.
Fix before merge
DeliveryWorker.ts: a peer's 201 is recorded asmessage.delivered, so if injection on the receiving server fails, only the receiver's ledger alarms. The sender gets no silence notice. (inline)PeerRegistryService.tsconnections(): with the 30-day peer session TTL from #173, a peer whose session expired or was revoked is dropped outright. Its agents disappear fromlist_participantsand it isn't counted inunread_peer_count, and sends to it fail with "no longer recorded". (inline)
Should fix
SendService.tssend:preResolveRemoteruns before the idempotent replay check, so a retry of a committed send can fail instead of replaying. (inline)PeerDirectory.ts: everylist_participantscall and every non-local send fans out a live roster GET to every peer. One dead peer adds up to 5s to everything. (inline)DeliveryTransport.tsdeliverPeer: each attempt loads all peers plus every session just to.findone. (inline)SendService.tsremoteMembership: the first send to an agent on an unreadable peer fails with nothing recorded, retried, or alarmed. The "home server asleep" promise only holds for participants we've already seen. I'd narrow the doc to match. (inline)DeliveryTransport.tscorrelationIdFor: re-reads a value the claimed row already has and adds a fake "row disappeared" error path. (inline)- Test setup churn:
deliverPeer: () => Effect.die(...)about 12 times,Layer.provide(peerDirectoryNoneLayer)about 20 times, and a FetchHttpClient + PeerRegistryService mock arounddeliveryTransportLiveabout 7 times, across ~12 test files anddevDeliverySeed.ts. (inline) - The cross-server
clear_own_askwithdrawal injects a notice and starts a turn on the answerer's side, which isn't how a local withdrawal behaves. That code is in #176, so my comment is there.
Nits
DeliveryTransport.tsdeliverPeer: the trailingmapErrorturns 404/403A2ADeliveryTargetErrorinto a transport error, so permanent refusals retry until they alarm. (inline)runtimeLayer.tsprovidesFetchHttpClient.layerthree times. (inline)PEER_DELIVERY_TIMEOUTandPEER_ROSTER_TIMEOUTare exported but only used in their own files.mcp/handlers.ts: the whole localdirectory.mapgot re-indented just to.concat(remoteRows), about 40 lines of blame churn.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
When the peer's deliver route returns 201, this row gets marked message.delivered. But 201 only means the peer accepted it. If the receiving server then fails to inject into the thread, the alarm lands only on its own ledger. The sender sees delivered, keeps an open Exchange, and never gets a silence notice, which breaks "never a silent loss". I'd have the receiver send a delivery-failed notice back over the peer path when a row with origin_environment_id alarms. The alternative is rewriting AC18 so the receipt explicitly means "the peer accepted it".

This filter drops any peer that has no live local session. With the 30-day session TTL from #173, an expired or revoked peer simply vanishes. PeerDirectory leaves its agents out of list_participants and doesn't count it in unread_peer_count, which breaks "never omitted silently". Outbound to it then fails with the misleading "no longer recorded on this server" (DeliveryTransport.ts:416). I'd return registered peers whose session is gone as unread, with a reason like "session expired", rather than filtering them out.

preResolveRemote runs before sendInternal's replay check. Say a send to a remote agent commits, then the agent is archived or the peer is removed, and the caller retries with the same client_request_id. The retry gets A2AParticipantArchivedError/NotFound instead of the original result. Every replay also pays for a network roster read. I'd check replayedSend(messageIdFor(input.commandId), sender) before resolving remotely, and add a test for "send committed, peer removed, same command id retried".

Every list_participants call and every send to a non-local id does a live roster GET against every peer. With a 5s timeout and concurrency 4, one dead peer adds up to 5s even to a send aimed at a healthy peer. For a send to a known remote id, I'd try recordedRoute first and only fan out when it misses. Or keep a short-lived last-good roster per peer, so a slow peer only costs its own lookups.

The same setup is repeated across about 12 test files and here: deliverPeer: () => Effect.die(...) about 12 times, Layer.provide(peerDirectoryNoneLayer) about 20 times, and FetchHttpClient + a PeerRegistryService mock around deliveryTransportLive about 7 times.

Nit: this trailing mapError also wraps the 404/403 A2ADeliveryTargetError above in A2ADeliveryTransportError. A permanent refusal then retries until it alarms instead of failing fast. I'd only map the HTTP/timeout errors, or use catchTag so A2ADeliveryTargetError passes through.

Agents could receive from a peer but nothing could send to one: receiver resolution stopped at the local Squadron tables and the transport only knew how to inject into a local thread. Adds the outbound side. A PeerDirectory reads every peer's roster live through the peer registry; when a receiver no local Squadron homes is an agent on exactly one readable peer, the send service records that peer on the message.sent payload and the delivery row (migration 16), leaving the participant id the agent named untouched. The worker hands such rows to a new deliverPeer branch on the transport, which posts to the peer's deliver route with the peer's credential, the correlation id, and the ask's intent; the peer's acknowledgement is the delivery receipt, and a refusal or an unreachable peer flows into the existing retry and alarm path. Two peers carrying one id is refused as ambiguous, and a receiver found nowhere while some peer could not be read is refused naming those peers. list_participants merges peer-homed agents beside local ones with their Squadron and no server field, and reports unread peers. The send service resolves through the directory only when one is provided, so every existing composition keeps resolving locally; the A2A runtime layer provides it in production alongside the registry, the inbound service, and the transport's peer side.

… to servers Addresses the Astra review of the outbound path: - Remote receiver resolution ran inside the writer permit and the SQLite transaction, so a slow or simultaneous peer blocked every other send. The network half now runs before the transaction, after the sender's own standing is checked, and the transaction re-checks local facts. - A send to a known remote agent whose peer is asleep was refused before any ledger row existed. The ledger already holds the route (the ask that reached the agent or the ask it sent here), so that route is used when the peer cannot be read, and the send is recorded and retried as the definition's asleep-server scenario asks. A never-seen participant on an unread peer is still refused. - Machine senders no longer resolve receivers through peers; the ruling excludes them. - Agent-facing output names no server: list_participants reports an unread peer count, and the unread-peers error carries a count, not labels or transport reasons. - PeerDirectory is an explicit dependency of the send service; test compositions provide the empty directory. - connections() hands the transport only peers whose issued session is still live, so revoking the peer's session in Settings → Connections ends outbound delivery as well as inbound. - The roster read's timeout covers the whole read, not just the connect.

A retry of a committed send resolved the receiver across peers again and could fail instead of replaying; every send to a known remote id fanned out to every peer's roster, so one dead peer taxed them all; a peer whose session here was revoked or expired vanished from the directory instead of being reported; the transport re-read the correlation id and loaded every peer per attempt; and the directory read the shared roster route that #174 closed to peers. - `send` replays before it resolves; remote resolution runs only for a new command. - A participant this server has exchanged messages with keeps its recorded route; only an unknown id fans out. - `connections()` lists every recorded peer with its inbound session status, and the directory reports a peer without a live session as unread with the reason, without reading it. `connection(environmentId)` serves one delivery attempt. - The worker hands the transport the correlation id it already holds. - The directory reads the peer roster route and decodes its agent-only shape. - One HTTP client object serves the three peer layers; the timeouts are module-private. - The inbound reply test asserts what this layer does: a reply to a peer's ask resolves through the recorded route and closes the Exchange here.

message.cancelledafter the peer has accepted the delivery.For a peer-homed receiver,
cancelDeliveryalways returns"cancelled"and does not ask the peer.attemptDeliverycallscancelDeliveryaftertransport.deliverPeersucceeds wheneverdeliveryUnavailable(row)returns true. For a peer-homed row withenvelope_channel = 'peer',deliveryUnavailable(row)checks the local sender's membership. The sender can be archived during the HTTP call, which can last up to 15 seconds. Archiving does not takedrainPermit, so this can happen while an attempt runs. The ledger then recordsmessage.cancelledwith the reason "accepted queue work was withdrawn", but the peer has already written its received row and delivers the message. For local agents,cancelAgentchecks whether the work was already delivered. Peer rows have no such check.After a successful
deliverPeer, the transport already accepted the delivery. Recordmessage.deliveredin that case. Themessage.deliveredprojection already ignores rows that are alreadycancelled, so this change is safe.🐛 Proposed fix in `attemptDelivery`

Testing:
scripts/j5/pr-env.sh <pr> --peer(#255) serves this PR's build as two peered servers, Local and Remote. Rebased ontoj5/mainon 2026-09-24 after the upstream sync and Crews landed; peer migrations are now 018–020 and the FORK.md case is 40. A test state directory that ran the pre-rebase stack recorded the peers table under migration 14, so rerunpr-env.shwith--freshfor such environments.Builds cross-device AC6, AC16, AC17, AC18, and AC20 for replies; agent-tools AC17.
Problem
Agents could receive from a peer but nothing could send to one.
What this adds
PeerDirectory. Reads every recorded peer's roster live with the peer's credential (concurrency 4, 5 s timeout). Peers are few and a live read is never stale; a peer that does not answer is reported as unread, never guessed at. ExposeslistAgentsandresolveAgent, plus anoneLayerfor compositions without peering.A2APeersUnreadErrornaming those peers; an archived remote agent is the existing archived refusal.message.sentgains an optionalreceiverEnvironmentId, projected into a newreceiver_environment_idcolumn (migration 16). The agent still names only a participant id.deliverPeerposts to the peer's deliver route with the peer's credential, the correlation id read from the delivery row, and the ask's intent read from the Exchange. A 2xx is the receipt. A 403 or 404 becomes a target error and anything else a transport error, so both flow into the worker's existing retry, backoff, and alarm path. The live transport now requires the registry and an HTTP client.deliverPeerand skips the local received-row write, because the peer writes its own. A remote party is exempt from the local-membership check, and cancelling a remote delivery needs no local queue lookup.list_participants. Peer-homed agents appear beside local ones with their Squadron, the roster's display name, and no server field. The result gainsunread_peer_count; no peer is named to an agent.FetchHttpClientandServerEnvironment.identityLayer, andEnvironmentAuthfrom the server) and shares it with the transport, the directory, and the peer routes; the route aggregate no longer provisions its own.PeerDirectoryis an explicit dependency of the send service; test compositions provide the empty directory. Remote resolution runs before the ledger transaction, and a known remote agent on an asleep peer is resolved from the route the ledger already recorded.The round trip
PeerRoundTrip.test.tsstands up two servers, each with its own database, ledger, send service, inbound service, and worker, and wires each transport'sdeliverPeerto the other's inbound door. Work asks Home by participant id; Work's ledger records the remote receiver; Home records its own received row and opens the Exchange; Home's agent replies as an ordinary same-Squadron reply; the reply crosses back and closes Work's Exchange. A second case shows an unreachable peer becoming a retry on the sender with no received row anywhere.Not in this PR
Silence notices and lifecycle closures for a remote waiter still address the local Squadron and would be cancelled by the membership check; that return path is stack 4. The Settings → Connections introduction flow is stack 5.
