From 29f23e3715c89596cc177085eab054a9dabb17e8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: kami Date: Mon, 20 Jul 2026 03:05:41 +0400 Subject: [PATCH] Add durable delivery outbox: Begin-before-send, Complete-after, unknown on crash MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Closes the audit finding: a crash between 'sink accepted it' and 'we recorded that' caused duplicate sends on the next tick with no trace. BeginDeliveryAttempt now runs before Send, CompleteDeliveryAttempt after — a stale 'pending' row found at startup reconciles to 'unknown' (never silently resent, never silently dropped, same rule as the Hexis execution engine's timeout handling). Wired into DispatchNudge, DispatchReminder, and RepeatUnacked; ReconcileStaleDeliveryAttempts runs once at mavend startup before the tick loop resumes. 9 new dispatcher tests cover begin-before-send ordering, failed-send completion, the reminder path, and begin-failure not blocking send. Vikunja #270.
