1.1 KiB

Here's a recommendation for the scenario:

  • Outcome/State: The original message was sent, but its delivery status is unknown due to a lost response. The local operation ID is gone, and the server's deduplication scope is device-specific.

  • Preserved Information: Only the immutable message payload remains locally. The original operation identity and any server-side acceptance evidence are lost to the client.

  • Recovery Action and Rejected Alternative: The product's suggestion to generate a fresh ID and retry is problematic. This risks sending a duplicate message if the original was accepted. Instead, the user should be prompted to manually reconcile the message. This could involve presenting the message to the user and asking if they want to resend it, acknowledging potential duplication.

  • Missing Contract or Clarification: The server's lookup support and retention for operation IDs are critical. Without these, the client cannot determine if the original message was processed. A contract for server-side reconciliation or query by payload content would be beneficial.
