fix(proxy): bind account-bound retries to dispatch owner - #1829
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughNon-account-neutral Responses payloads now remain bound to their first dispatch account across streaming, HTTP bridge, and WebSocket retries. Verified neutral fresh replays can clear ownership. Owner-unavailable and repeated authentication failures now fail closed. ChangesReplay owner fencing
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to Retry-owner cleanup may erase an independent account pin, allowing a turn-bound request to be dispatched under another account. Merge should wait until the owner sources are tracked separately and only the previous-response fence is cleared. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Summary
Bind nonportable Responses retries to their first dispatch account across HTTP streaming, HTTP bridge, and direct WebSocket paths. This closes the cross-account replay defect left after #1818 without bundling classifier or raw-error work.
