Validates AKIS session tracker handles high-volume edge cases: deep nesting (depth 26+), rapid context switching, interrupt storms, corruption recovery, and state preservation across 200+ random operations. Based on test findings, implements 4 key improvements to enhance production resilience.

Test Coverage

Edge Case Suite (test-session-resilience.js)

  • Session lifecycle: start → phases → complete
  • Nested sessions with automatic parent tracking
  • Interrupt handling and auto-resume
  • Corruption recovery via backup files
  • Concurrent session management
  • 37 assertions, 100% pass rate

Stress Test Suite (stress-test-sessions.js)

  • Randomized operations: start, phase transitions, interrupts, resume, complete
  • Validates parent references, depth consistency, orphan detection
  • Configurable volume (50-200+ ops), seeded random for reproducibility
  • Tested depths 0-26 with 0% error rate

Advanced Scenarios (scenario-test-sessions.js)

  • Rapid context switching (30 switches in 1.5s)
  • Interrupt storms (cascading 6-deep)
  • Non-linear resumption
  • Massive parallel sessions (50+ simultaneous)
  • Stack-based parent assignment validation

AKIS Improvements Implemented

Based on resilience testing insights, implemented 4 production-ready improvements:

1. Hard Depth Limit

  • Configurable max nesting depth via AKIS_MAX_DEPTH env var (default: 10)
  • Prevents runaway nesting discovered in stress tests (depth 26+)
  • Throws error when limit exceeded

2. Validation on Load

  • Automatic corruption detection with structure validation
  • Auto-recovery from .backup file on corruption
  • Graceful fallback to empty state

3. Stale Session Cleanup

  • New archive-stale CLI command
  • Archives sessions inactive >N hours (default: 1hr)
  • Prevents memory bloat from forgotten sessions

4. Health Check API

  • New health CLI command for integrity validation
  • Checks: orphaned sessions, depth consistency, stale sessions
  • Returns comprehensive status report
# Use new features
export AKIS_MAX_DEPTH=5
node .github/scripts/session-tracker.js health
node .github/scripts/session-tracker.js archive-stale 2

See .github/AKIS_IMPROVEMENTS.md for full details including 6 additional proposed enhancements.

Key Findings

Stack-based parent assignment: New sessions use most recent active session as parent, not current session after resume. By design for interrupt stacking.

// After resume, parent is last active (session-2), not current (session-1)
start("session-1")  // depth 0, active
start("session-2")  // depth 1, parent=session-1, active
resume(session-1)   // current=session-1, but session-2 still active
start("interrupt")  // parent=session-2 (last active), depth 2

Corruption recovery: Atomic writes + .backup files enable 100% recovery from corrupted state files.

Performance validated:

  • 30 context switches in 1.5s
  • 50 sessions created in 2.4s
  • 200 operations with 0% error rate

Original prompt

using latest commit and akis improvements please make high volume of edge case simulations focusing on session resislince ( we induced session pracking ad automatic recovery from nested session s and interrupts etc ) agen should be able to handle multiple random tasks and context switches ald resume where interupted

@copilot suggest improvements over akis ( be terse in edits )

Implemented 4 key improvements based on testing insights:

  1. Hard depth limit (AKIS_MAX_DEPTH=10) - prevents runaway nesting
  2. Validation on load - auto-recovery from corruption
  3. Stale cleanup - archive-stale command for sessions >1hr
  4. Health check - health command validates integrity
node .github/scripts/session-tracker.js health
node .github/scripts/session-tracker.js archive-stale 2

Plus 6 proposed improvements in .github/AKIS_IMPROVEMENTS.md (action compression, resume by name, metrics, etc).
