Conversation
…0s LLM-sized worker default Every StateKV method (get/set/update/delete/list) issues a plain sdk.trigger() call with no explicit timeoutMs, so it silently inherited the worker's global invocationTimeoutMs (180000ms, src/index.ts) — a ceiling sized for LLM-backed functions like mem::graph-extract's provider.compress() call, which legitimately needs that much slack for slow local models. A KV round-trip is a local file-backed read/write and should never take anywhere near that long under healthy conditions. Functions that issue many sequential KV calls per invocation have no way to tell "one of my KV calls is stuck" apart from "the LLM is just being slow" — both silently consume the same 180s budget. mem::graph-extract makes up to 19 sequential kv.get/kv.set calls per invocation with zero per-call protection; when the underlying file_based state adapter stalls on even one of them (observed repeatedly over several days, see rohitg00#1127), the whole invocation hangs silently until the outer 180s ceiling kills it from the outside, with an error that names the function ("Invocation timeout after 180000ms: mem::graph-extract") but gives no indication the actual stall was in a KV call. The same stall was also observed independently crashing an unrelated state::get call, since a wedged file-based adapter blocks any caller, not just graph-extract's. iii-sdk's TriggerRequest already supports a per-call timeoutMs override — this just wires it through StateKV with a 10s ceiling, comfortably above any healthy KV round-trip and far below the 180s LLM-sized default, so a stuck KV call now fails fast and attributably (naming the function_id + scope/key) instead of silently blocking the entire invocation. Fixes rohitg00#1127.

Assert timeoutMs === 10_000 exactly rather than the looser ">0 and <180s" check, so a future change to KV_TIMEOUT_MS shows up as a deliberate diff in this test instead of passing silently as long as it stays somewhere under the old ceiling.

Production data point for the 180s default, if it is useful. On a self-hosted instance (0.9.28, Breakdown: 102 × Two things that make it worse than the bare timeout, both visible in that code path:
It is reached as To be explicit about what this is not: I am not claiming these caused the outage that surrounded them. 10s reads right for a local file-backed adapter. Worth considering whether it should be an env override rather than a constant, since a network-backed state adapter would want more headroom. |
The 10s KV_TIMEOUT_MS was a hardcoded constant sized for the file_based adapter. A network-backed state adapter would legitimately want more headroom, so make it an env override with a strict-digits parse (matching the openai.ts precedent) that falls back to the 10s default on anything malformed.

@dmazhukov — appreciate you posting this, especially with the per-caller breakdown and the lock-pinning detail. That's a clean independent confirmation of exactly the failure mode this PR targets, and the 18x-faster lock release under the fix is a good number to have on record. Pushed

…t max iii-sdk forwards timeoutMs straight into setTimeout with no clamping, so any value above 2_147_483_647 silently becomes a ~1ms timeout instead of erroring or falling back — the strict-digits parse alone didn't catch this since an overflowing value still passes as a valid positive integer.

Summary
Fixes #1127.
Every
StateKVmethod (get/set/update/delete/list) issues a plainsdk.trigger()call with no explicittimeoutMs, so it silently inherits the worker's globalinvocationTimeoutMs(180000ms, set insrc/index.ts) — a ceiling sized for LLM-backed functions likemem::graph-extract'sprovider.compress()call, which legitimately needs that much slack for slow local models.A KV round-trip is a local file-backed read/write and should never take anywhere near that long under healthy conditions. Functions that issue many sequential KV calls per invocation have no way to distinguish "one of my KV calls is stuck" from "the LLM is just being slow" — both silently consume the same 180s budget.
mem::graph-extractmakes up to 19 sequentialkv.get/kv.setcalls per invocation with zero per-call protection. When the underlyingfile_basedstate adapter stalls on even one of them (observed repeatedly over ~7 days on my machine — see #1127 for the full incident writeup), the whole invocation hangs silently until the outer 180s ceiling kills it from the outside, with an error that names the function ("Invocation timeout after 180000ms: mem::graph-extract") but gives no indication the actual stall was in a KV call, not the LLM call. The same underlying stall was independently observed crashing an unrelatedstate::getcall, since a wedged file-based adapter blocks any caller, not justgraph-extract's.Fix
iii-sdk'sTriggerRequestalready supports a per-calltimeoutMsoverride (node_modules/iii-sdk/dist/index.d.mts) — this PR just wires it throughStateKVwith a 10s ceiling: comfortably above any healthy KV round-trip, far below the 180s LLM-sized default. A stuck KV call now fails fast and attributably (naming thefunction_id+scope/key) instead of silently blocking the entire invocation for up to 3 minutes.I deliberately scoped this to
StateKVitself rather than patchinggraph.tsalone, sinceStateKVis shared by nearly every function in the codebase (governance,branch-aware,evict,migrate,snapshot,cascade,consolidation-pipeline,frontier, etc.) — all of them share the exact same unguarded pattern and would benefit from the same protection, not just the one function where the symptom happened to surface first.What this doesn't fix
This does not explain why the file-based KV adapter stalls in the first place (contention? a stuck lock? something else in
iii-sdk/the engine itself) — that's outside this package's source and I don't have visibility into it. This PR makes a stall fail fast and loud instead of silent and slow; it doesn't prevent the stall from happening. I've noted this distinction in #1127.Testing
test/kv.test.ts(new file — no prior direct unit test existed forStateKV): asserts every method passes atimeoutMsstrictly less than the 180s worker default, that a rejection propagates to the caller, and thatfunction_id/payloadare still forwarded correctly alongside the new field.src/state/kv.ts(viagit stash) and passes with the fix — confirms it actually exercises the change.npx vitest run→ 1444 passed / 7 failed (pre-existing, confirmed present on unmodified upstreammaintoo — see note below), our 3 new tests included in the pass count.npx tsc --noEmit: no errors in the changed file (src/state/kv.ts); pre-existing unrelated errors elsewhere in the repo are untouched by this diff.Note on the 7 pre-existing test failures (unrelated to this change)
test/fetch-timeout.test.ts(6 tests) andtest/context-slots.test.ts(1 test) fail identically on a clean checkout ofupstream/mainwith no changes applied — confirmed viagit stash+env -i(clean shell env). Root cause looks likesrc/config.ts'sENV_FILE/DATA_DIRresolving to the literal~/.agentmemory/.envon whatever machine runs the tests (not a repo-relative fixture path), so these tests pick up real, machine-specific config values (e.g. a realAGENTMEMORY_LLM_TIMEOUT_MSoverride) instead of a clean test fixture. Flagging in case it's useful, but didn't want to scope-creep this PR into fixing it.Summary by CodeRabbit
