feat(errors): add charged, next_action and operation_id to the problem details - #1208
Every error envelope now answers two questions without the prose: was I charged? and what do I do next?
GFlowError gains three RFC 9457 extension members, emitted by to_problem_details() (so CLI --json, MCP _gflow_error_dict, the worker queue and the structured log all get them from one place):
Every class in EXIT_CODE_MAP declares its own charged and next_action (a table test fails for a class that inherits instead of deciding). charged: no is used only where the class proves nothing was submitted.
Raise sites can override all three through the constructor (the FlowApiError legacy branch forwards them too).
retryable is unchanged and always agrees with next_action (retryable is true exactly for retry / retry_after). next_action is resolved against is_retryable()at emit time, so the existing per-instance flips agree as well: retryable=True reCAPTCHA sites, retryable=False agent-only and post-submit sites, and client.py's post-construction exc.retryable = False. A flip away from retry reads reconcile when the class says Flow may have billed, otherwise none.
Hand-built envelopes carry the members too: CLI unexpected_payload, MCP _masked_unexpected_dict, the worker's unknown-error branch (maybe / none), and all four gflow_auth_status error branches (charged: no, a credit-free probe).
New docs/ERRORS.md: every member, the value meanings, and every type URI with its exit code and defaults (a test fails when a type is missing or a row disagrees with the code). Linked from docs/INDEX.md, docs/MCP.md and docs/USAGE.md, and mirrored to the website with a nav entry. CHANGELOG [Unreleased] updated.
Limits
operation_id is only set on MediaDownloadError today (its media id), the one place an id already exists on the error. Other classes leave it out rather than invent one.
tests/test_problem_details_extensions.py: per-class defaults table over EXIT_CODE_MAP, retryable/next_action agreement over every GFlowError subclass x retryable in {None, True, False}, a post-construction flip, raise-site overrides, the billed vs free MediaDownloadError, CLI and MCP envelopes carrying the same members, and the docs table matching the code.
Surface assertions added to tests/worker/test_daemon.py (typed and untyped queued failures) and tests/mcp/test_auth_status_tool.py. The pinned masked envelope in tests/mcp/test_telemetry_hook.py gains the two members.

Review
Two independent reviews (code-review and ponytail-review) were addressed in 55c299cc. Each behaviour change got a failing test first (28 red for the expected reasons, then green).
Fixed
Failed asset write after generation.storage.write_asset_async's ConfigurationError now reads maybe / reconcile. The asset is in the Flow project.
Chain errors after billed links. Any GFlowError raised after at least one completed link now reads yes / reconcile / retryable: false, whatever its class.
video extend --output render failure. A render that fails after billed segments reads yes / reconcile, and its hint points at the free re-render, gflow scene create --output.
ChainPartialError. It reads yes only when it carries completed links; otherwise maybe.
MediaAttributionError. The default is now maybe, not yes.
Hand-built envelopes. All of these now carry charged / next_action / retryable through one helper, errors.outcome_members, so retryable cannot disagree with next_action:
MCP: _bad_param (all call sites), no-profile, no-default-profile, missing profile directory, the masked unexpected error, and the gflow_auth_status branches
the task_payload fallback and the cancel-before-run record
the worker's unknown-error branch, indeterminate-outcome and daemon-recovery
One test walks the builders.
Missing URIs in docs/ERRORS.md. It now lists the nine hand-built URIs. The doc tests compare every row (exit, charged, next_action) with what the code emits.
Result-shaped failures. I added the fields rather than narrowing the doc. video t2v/i2v/r2v failures, both video extend paths and the partial video chain document now carry charged / next_action. No follow-up issue was needed.
Sites that submitted nothing. These now read no: the migrated extend editor guard (none), the /about landing (reauth), and both balance-read FlowAppErrors (the /about one reads reauth).
retry with charged: maybe.
The labs video poll timeout after submit now reads reconcile, with the media id as operation_id.
The scene-render poll timeout reads charged: no.
docs/ERRORS.md now says exactly what retry with maybe means: every known post-submit site is overridden to reconcile, so a retry that reaches the caller comes from a site gflow treats as before the submit.
Silent inheritance. Every GFlowError subclass now declares its own defaults, and the test covers all subclasses, not just the mapped ones. ProfileLockedError reads wait; BatchPartialError and BatchIntegrityError read no / reconcile.
A test that could not fail. A new test checks that each class's declared next_action agrees with RETRYABLE_ERRORS. The resolver cannot hide a bad declaration from it.
Constructors that reject the overrides. I corrected the doc instead of widening seven constructors: those classes have the attribute set after construction, which is what the chain and extend fixes do.
retry_after.RateLimitError emits a retry_after member when it has one and next_action is retry_after. Doc row added.
docs/MCP.md. The paragraph no longer splits the "Everything else is terminal" sentence. The website mirror is regenerated.
Not done
No dedicated tests for two of the overrides. The two balance-read overrides (chore(deps): bump astral-sh/setup-uv from 3 to 7 #9) are a one-keyword change on each raise and have no test of their own; driving credits offline needs a fake page plus an RPC reply. The scene-render poll timeout also has no dedicated test.
Open question, not done as instructed: should RETRYABLE_ERRORS, the class next_action and the instance retryable collapse into one source? Today the declaration test and the emit-time resolver keep them consistent.
CI status
Known failure, fixed by the separate tz PR:tests/test_telemetry_notice.py::test_consent_region_from_iana_timezone[Atlantic/Faeroe-False]. Ubuntu 24.04's tzdata 2026e moved legacy links into tzdata-legacy. The same failure appears on a develop-identical docs PR (docs(roadmap): replace the v0.9–v0.11 roadmap with current themes #1207). It is the only failing test.
SonarCloud: zero new issues and zero hotspots. The S3358 smell is fixed in 30907c0f. new_coverage reads 0% only because the test jobs failed on the tz test and uploaded no coverage. Locally, coverage is 93%.
E2E scope
This change touches no Flow surface. It adds members to the error envelopes and changes no transport, selector or request, so there is no e2e test to run.
Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
CLI JSON errors, MCP tool failures, and queued-task errors now report whether a charge was made, may have been made, or was not made, along with a recommended next action. An operation ID is included when available.
Partial video-generation failures provide clearer billing and reconciliation details, with rerender guidance when applicable.
Rate-limit errors include a retry delay when one is available.
Documentation
Added an error-envelope reference covering response fields, recovery actions, error types, and exit codes, linked from the usage and MCP guides.
…m details
Every error envelope (CLI --json, MCP results, worker queue) now says whether
Flow may have billed the failed operation and what a caller should do next.
Each class in EXIT_CODE_MAP declares its own defaults; raise sites may
override them. next_action is reconciled with is_retryable at emit time, so
the two never disagree, including after a post-construction retryable flip.
A non-retryable MediaDownloadError (a billed clip, #941) reads charged: yes,
next_action: reconcile, with its media id as operation_id.
docs/ERRORS.md lists every type URI, its exit code and these defaults; a
test keeps the table in step with the code.

Walkthrough
The change adds charged, next_action, and optional operation_id fields to error representations across CLI, MCP, and worker paths. It defines defaults and overrides, updates video and task failure handling, adds regression tests, and documents the envelope.
Changes: Standardized error outcomes
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Define and resolve error outcomes src/gflow_cli/errors.py, tests/test_problem_details_extensions.py
Error classes gain charge and next-action defaults. Problem-details output resolves those fields against retryability and includes an operation ID or rate-limit delay when applicable. Tests check defaults, overrides, serialization, and documented error rows.
Propagate outcomes through video and CLI operations src/gflow_cli/api/*, src/gflow_cli/chain.py, src/gflow_cli/cli_video.py, src/gflow_cli/json_output.py, src/gflow_cli/storage.py, tests/api/*, tests/cli/*, tests/test_charged_surfaces.py
API, chain, video, and storage paths add outcome metadata for timeouts, partial completion, and failed results. Regression tests check the generated errors and JSON fields.
Add outcomes to MCP and worker errors src/gflow_cli/mcp/*, src/gflow_cli/worker/*, tests/mcp/*, tests/worker/*
MCP and worker error payloads add outcome metadata for authentication, task cancellation and recovery, failed video generation, and unexpected failures. Tests check the response fields.
The changelog and documentation describe the envelope fields, defaults, error types, and CLI, MCP, and worker cases. The website navigation adds an Error envelope entry.

Explanation
The PR meets #1201’s other coding requirements [#1201]: it adds the outcome members and class defaults, resolves next_action against retryability, updates MCP envelopes, documents the error types, and adds tests. However, #1201 also requires preserving Flow’s own error in detail on the migrated status-record path. generation_record() in src/gflow_cli/api/transports/batchexecute.py decodes the record but does not preserve a Flow error in detail; the PR description confirms this work remains undone.

Review follow-up for #1201:
- Billed paths no longer read charged: no. A failed asset write, any chain
error after a completed link, and an extend render failure after billed
segments read reconcile; ChainPartialError reads yes only with completed
links; MediaAttributionError defaults to maybe.
- Sites that provably submitted nothing read no (the extend editor guard,
the /about landing as reauth, both balance reads); the labs poll timeout
after submit reads reconcile with the media id.
- Every GFlowError subclass declares its own defaults (ProfileLockedError
is wait, the batch errors reconcile), and class defaults must agree with
RETRYABLE_ERRORS.
- Hand-built MCP and worker envelopes, the task fallback and the
cancel-before-run record carry charged, next_action and retryable through
one helper; result-shaped --json failures carry charged and next_action.
- RateLimitError emits retry_after; docs/ERRORS.md lists the hand-built
URIs and tests compare its rows to what the code emits; the MCP.md
paragraph no longer splits a sentence.

Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.
Explicit retryable can contradict next_action in the stored state.
If a raise site passes both retryable=True and a non-retry next_action (or the reverse), the constructor stores both. resolved_next_action() repairs the output at emit time, so the envelopes agree. The repair rewrites the explicit next_action in silence. A site such as read_credits passes next_action="reauth" with retryable=False, which is consistent. A future inconsistent call would lose its action without any signal.
Consider asserting or logging the conflict in __init__. This is optional because the emit-time reconciliation already protects the contract.

errors.py 182-190, "explicit retryable can contradict next_action in the stored state": declined. The emitted envelope cannot disagree: resolved_next_action() reconciles the two at emit time, and the tests check that over every class with retryable set to None, True and False, and after a post-construction flip. No raise site passes a conflicting pair today. An assert in __init__ would turn that mistake into a crash on an error path, which loses the original error. A log line would add noise for a state the output already corrects.
Pre-merge "Docstring Coverage": not acted on. It is advisory. The new public helpers (outcome_members, resolved_next_action) have docstrings, and the remaining misses are private test helpers.
… every queue record
Defects found reviewing the stacked #1214, all in #1201 code:
- video extend: a run that spent credits reads charged: yes even when no
segment finished, and carries the submitted segment's media id as
operation_id (run_extend_chain stamps it on a failed poll).
- video extend --output: the whole render step after billed segments is
covered (scene read-back, concat inputs, render), and its hint is a
runnable `gflow scene create --project <id> <clip refs> --output <path>`.
- worker: a video Flow reports failed reads maybe/reconcile with its media
id, the same as CLI video_result.
- labs t2v/i2v poll: the post-submit deadline raises TransportTimeoutError
(maybe/reconcile, media id) instead of a builtin TimeoutError that
surfaced as an unclassified error.
- video chain: an untyped error after billed links is wrapped in
ChainPartialError, which lists completed_media_ids; a typed one carries
the last completed link as operation_id.
- queue: a cancel before submit reads `none` at any pre-submit phase; the
cancelled, indeterminate and daemon-recovery records carry a type URI and
no invented HTTP status.
…e is fixable
CodeRabbit follow-ups on bf242f7:
- chain: a later link's error keeps its own operation_id (an in-flight
poll timeout names the link being generated); only an error with none
gets the last completed link's id.
- storage: write_asset_async takes charged/next_action (default
maybe/reconcile for an asset Flow made); concatenate_scene passes
no/fix_input, since a scene render spends nothing.
- labs poll docstring names the TransportTimeoutError it now raises.
…ne database
Ubuntu 24.04's tzdata 2026e moves backward links (Atlantic/Faeroe, Portugal,
Eire, Iceland, Poland) into tzdata-legacy, which the CI runners do not install.
ZoneInfo then refuses the alias, consent_region() fails closed, and the
Atlantic/Faeroe row (expected False) went red on every PR, develop included;
the three legacy rows expecting True passed for the wrong reason.
The mapping test now stubs the zone lookup, so every row checks the
name-to-region mapping on any machine. A separate test pins the fail-closed
behaviour for an alias the installed zone database cannot load.
(cherry picked from commit 9f356c9)
CI note: this branch now carries a cherry-pick (-x) of #1215's test-only commit 9f356c9d. CI on every PR, develop included, was failing on test_consent_region_from_iana_timezone[Atlantic/Faeroe-False], because Ubuntu 24.04's tzdata 2026e moved legacy zone links into tzdata-legacy. That failure also left SonarCloud's new-code coverage at 0%. The commit is identical to #1215's, so git drops it as a duplicate when #1215 merges first.
Use a documented error class for a Flow-failed video.
GFlowError is the base class. It has problem_type = "about:blank" and title = "Error". The persisted queue envelope for a Flow-failed video therefore gets type: about:blank.
docs/ERRORS.md documents no row for about:blank, and test_errors_doc_lists_every_type_uri skips it. A consumer that branches on type cannot tell this failure from other untyped errors.
FlowApiError has a documented type (…/errors/api-error) and exit code. It accepts the same next_action and operation_id overrides.

The worker raised the GFlowError base class, so the queue envelope read
type about:blank, which docs/ERRORS.md does not list. FlowApiError keeps
exit 1 and charged: maybe, and the next_action/operation_id overrides
are unchanged. Raised by CodeRabbit on #1208.
CodeRabbit nitpick (review 5850945241, src/gflow_cli/worker/daemon.py:444-449, "Use a documented error class for a Flow-failed video"):
Verified, fixed in 0b16e0e: the finding holds. The worker raised the GFlowError base class, so the persisted queue envelope read type: about:blank and title: Error, and docs/ERRORS.md has no row for that type. It now raises FlowApiError, documented as https://gflow-cli.dev/errors/api-error with exit 1 and charged: maybe (docs/ERRORS.md:123). The exit code and charged are therefore unchanged, and next_action: reconcile and operation_id are still passed explicitly. The CLI path returns a result-shaped --json with no type and exits 1, so the two surfaces still agree on everything they share.
Test first: test_a_flow_failed_video_reads_like_the_cli now also asserts (type, exit_code) == (api-error, 1). It failed for the expected reason (('about:blank', 1)) and now passes. tests/worker and tests/test_errors.py pass (132), and all ten gates are green. No e2e: this changes the label on a local queue record and does not touch a Flow surface.
FlowApiError's default remediation says to retry, next to charged: maybe
and next_action: reconcile, which invites a second billed submit. The
raise site now says to check the project on Flow first.
Follow-up to my reply on the FlowApiError change: it did change more than type. FlowApiError's default remediation ("…then retry the API call") would have sat next to charged: maybe / next_action: reconcile, inviting a second billed submit. Fixed in 9f549d7: the raise site now passes its own hint ("Flow took this job and then reported it failed, so it may have charged for it. Check the project on Flow before running it again."), and test_a_flow_failed_video_reads_like_the_cli asserts the hint does not say retry. The test failed against the previous commit and passes now. title also changed, from Error to Flow API error.

CodeRabbit on #1208: ERRORS.md promises the media id as operation_id for a
video Flow reported failed, on the CLI as on the worker queue, but the CLI's
VideoResult payload left it out. USAGE.md also described every --json failure
as a problem-details object; the failed-video result is result-shaped.

Reconcile retryable poll failures after submission
If a status poll exhausts retries on a 429 or 5xx response, the returned error still advises retrying. The non-JSON CLI prints that advice even though the segment was submitted and billed. Set the error’s billing status and action for the submitted segment, and replace the retry hint with reconciliation guidance.

Qualify the retryable defaults.
A video poll timeout after submission now emits retryable: false and next_action: "reconcile". The blanket claim that timeouts are retryable can lead callers to repeat a potentially billed submission. State that these are defaults and callers must read the emitted value. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

For a resumed extend, the hint omits the earlier clips and appends parenthesized prose to the command. Even after replacing <path>, a shell rejects that command. Put the instruction outside the command and explain how to include the earlier clips and their trims.

If a later segment’s poll fails and rendering also fails, the hint includes that segment’s workflow ID. If the segment later finishes, scene create can include it in the recovered video even though it was not reported as completed.

Failed pre-merge checks:
- Linked Issues check:
Implement preservation of Flow’s own error in `detail` on the migrated
status-record path, and add a regression test for that path.
- Docstring Coverage:
Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage
threshold.

…recovery command
CodeRabbit on #1208:
- run_extend_chain: a poll failure that outlasts its retries (429/5xx) kept
RateLimitError's charged=no / retry_after on a segment Flow already took;
it now reads maybe / reconcile with a hint that does not say retry.
- The free re-render hint names the run's --profile, renders only confirmed
segments (not one whose poll failed), and keeps the resumed-scene
instruction outside the command so the command runs as written.
- USAGE.md: the retryable classes are defaults; read the emitted value.
CodeRabbit outside-diff findings (review 5852403882, on 6e18238c). I verified all five against the code and fixed them in 99f33e7:
src/gflow_cli/api/extend_chain.py:184-185, "Reconcile retryable poll failures after submission": Verified, fixed. A 429/5xx that outlasted the poll retries kept RateLimitError's charged: no / retry_after on a segment Flow had already taken. When the error resolves to a retry action, it now reads maybe / reconcile with retryable: false, and its hint no longer says retry. The new test test_a_retryable_poll_failure_after_submit_says_reconcile failed before the change.
website/docs/USAGE.md:1983-1984, "Qualify the retryable defaults": Verified, fixed in docs/USAGE.md (mirror regenerated). The WAF/rate-limit/network/timeout list now reads as the default. The doc cites a video poll that times out after the submit (false / reconcile) to show why callers must read the emitted value.
src/gflow_cli/cli_video.py:1136-1148, "Make the resumed recovery command usable": Verified, fixed. The resumed-scene instruction is now a separate sentence after the command, so the command runs as written. Test: test_a_resumed_rerender_keeps_the_instruction_out_of_the_command.
src/gflow_cli/cli_video.py:1136-1140, "Preserve the profile in the recovery command": Verified, fixed. _free_rerender_hint takes the run's resolved profile and emits --profile.
src/gflow_cli/cli_video.py:2224-2231, "Keep unconfirmed segments out of the recovery command": Verified, fixed. Submitted segments are kept as a media id -> workflow id map. The command is built from the source clip plus only the segments in completed_media_ids. test_the_free_rerender_names_only_confirmed_segments_and_the_profile failed before the change, because the command named the unconfirmed wf-seg-2.

Summary
Every error envelope now answers two questions without the prose: was I charged? and what do I do next?
GFlowErrorgains three RFC 9457 extension members, emitted byto_problem_details()(so CLI--json, MCP_gflow_error_dict, the worker queue and the structured log all get them from one place):charged:no|maybe|yesnext_action:retry|retry_after|wait|reauth|fix_input|reconcile|noneoperation_id: emitted only when setEXIT_CODE_MAPdeclares its ownchargedandnext_action(a table test fails for a class that inherits instead of deciding).charged: nois used only where the class proves nothing was submitted.FlowApiErrorlegacy branch forwards them too).retryableis unchanged and always agrees withnext_action(retryableis true exactly forretry/retry_after).next_actionis resolved againstis_retryable()at emit time, so the existing per-instance flips agree as well:retryable=TruereCAPTCHA sites,retryable=Falseagent-only and post-submit sites, andclient.py's post-constructionexc.retryable = False. A flip away from retry readsreconcilewhen the class says Flow may have billed, otherwisenone.MediaDownloadError(every such site is a finished, billed clip, MediaDownloadError: decide its retry flag and whether an HTTP-error signed URL should raise it (from #898) #941) readscharged: yes,next_action: reconcile, with the media id asoperation_id. The free recovery read (gflow data download/gflow_download_media) keepsno/retry.unexpected_payload, MCP_masked_unexpected_dict, the worker's unknown-error branch (maybe/none), and all fourgflow_auth_statuserror branches (charged: no, a credit-free probe).docs/ERRORS.md: every member, the value meanings, and everytypeURI with its exit code and defaults (a test fails when atypeis missing or a row disagrees with the code).

This change touches no Flow surface. It adds members to the error envelopes and changes no transport, selector or request, so there is no e2e test to run.
