fix(ai-sandbox-cloudflare): stop exposePreview from returning stale tunnel URLs - #1200
fix(ai-sandbox-cloudflare): stop exposePreview from returning stale tunnel URLs#1200season179 wants to merge 4 commits into
Conversation
exposePreview returned sandbox.tunnels.get(port).url unchecked, so a stale cached tunnel record was re-shared as a dead URL with no error signal. Probe the port inside the sandbox first (actionable error when nothing listens), verify the tunnel URL through the edge with a propagation-aware retry window, and replace the tunnel once when the local server is healthy but the edge keeps answering 502/530. Fixes TanStack#992

ChangesPreview tunnel liveness
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The change validates preview servers and refreshes dead tunnel URLs, but concurrent calls may still invalidate replacement URLs, while mixed edge outcomes or verification failures may still destroy a tunnel without reliable stale evidence. These bounded correctness risks can leave users with unusable previews, so merge should wait for a fix or explicit owner acceptance. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

- Around line 138-142: Change the edge-fetch retry flow so exceptions recorded
in lastFailure produce a distinct unverified outcome rather than being treated
as stale-tunnel responses. Retry fetch failures, then throw an actionable error
after exhaustion without calling sandbox.tunnels.destroy(port); only destroy and
replace the tunnel when every relevant response is a non-matching 502 or 530.
Add coverage using persistent edgeFetchMock.mockRejectedValue(...) that verifies
no destruction occurs.
- Around line 88-98: Update the local probe flow around the timeout Promise and
Promise.race in the preview check to retain the timer handle and clear it in a
finally block after the race settles, covering both success and failure while
preserving the existing timeout behavior.
In `@packages/ai-sandbox-cloudflare/tests/preview-tool.test.ts`:
- Around line 3-9: Move the preview-tool unit test beside the source module at

new location while preserving the existing test behavior.

…t verify it Review feedback: a fetch exception (timeout, DNS, subrequest failure) is not evidence of a stale tunnel, so it must not trigger destroy and replace. The edge probe now reports stale only when a non-matching 502/530 response was actually observed; exception-only outcomes throw an actionable error and leave the tunnel in place. Also clear the local probe timeout timer once the race settles.

…verdict Review feedback: when the replacement tunnel's probe only saw fetch exceptions, the error claimed the tunnel never became reachable and recommended restarting the dev server. Pick the diagnosis and hint from the probe verdict: unverified reports that the edge could not be verified and suggests a plain retry; the stale message is unchanged.

…straints Drop internal shorthand from the probe-race comment, explain the stale/unverified split by the evidence rule it encodes instead of restating the return type, and note why the test mocks need mockReset rather than what the setup does.

exposePreviewreturnedsandbox.tunnels.get(port).urlwithout any check. The SDK serves that record straight from Durable Object storage on a cache hit, so once the tunnel behind it died, the tool kept re-sharing a dead URL that answers 502 at the trycloudflare edge, with no error signal for the agent (#992). This PR verifies the preview end to end before returning a URL, and replaces a stale tunnel once.Changes
containerFetchHEAD). Nothing listening now fails with an error that names the port and the fix ("start the dev server on 0.0.0.0:PORT"), instead of minting a tunnel to a dead port.docs/sandbox/cloudflare.mddocuments only that contract. The change is failure behavior: dead URLs become actionable errors or an automatic replacement.Checklist

Risk / rollback
exposePreviewcall now makes one in-container request plus at least one edge request. The happy path adds well under a second; the worst case (everything broken) is bounded at roughly 42 seconds before the tool returns an actionable error, instead of instantly returning a URL that does not work.tunnels.getbehavior; no schema, storage, or cross-package impact.Summary by CodeRabbit
