Automatic recovery from stream and network failures
Turns no longer hang on a stalled response stream: an idle watchdog warns after 60 seconds of silence and cancels at 300, while throttling, 5xx errors, and connection drops are retried automatically with backoff. Streaming responses also get a 60-minute timeout by default, so long responses are no longer cut off. Tune all of it with the api.streamIdleSoftTimeout , api.streamIdleHardTimeout , and api.timeout settings. Learn more ->
