CapyBench.HTTP.discard_body/5Breaks S3βS7 on Any Chunked Response (2/7 Stages Passed)- Immediate VM Crash on Real HTTP/HTTPS Targets Running
./cb http://rizafahmi.comor./cb https://rizafahmi.comcrashes on the very first response with ** (FunctionClauseError) no function clause matching inCapyBench.HTTP.discard_body/5, causing S3, S4, S5, S6, and S7 to fail manual evaluation. - Dead '
:to_close' Clause vs. 'nil' Return Value (Lines 67β68) Inlib/capy_bench/http.ex, content_length/1 usesEnum.find_value/2to parse theContent-Lengthheader and returns nil whenever the header is absent (such asTransfer-Encoding: chunkedresponses). However, discard_body/5 only defines two clauses: defpdiscard_body(transport, socket, _buffer, :to_close = _length, deadline)(line 171, which is unreachable dead code because nothing ever returns:to_close) and defpdiscard_body(transport, socket, buffer, length, deadline)whenis_integer(length)(line 185). - Masked by Synthetic TestServer Fixtures: Because
TestServer.send_response/4intest/support/test_server.exunconditionally injects 'content-length: #{byte_size(body)}\r\n' into every test responseβand the agent wrote zero tests for chunked or close-delimited responsesβall local HTTP tests passed without ever exercising non-Content-Lengthresponses.
- Immediate VM Crash on Real HTTP/HTTPS Targets Running
9 Concurrency-Limit Halts Added 153.0m of Manual 'continue' Wait Time (93m Active vs. 246m Wall-Clock)
- Why Wall-Clock Was 245.6m (10:29β14:34) While Active Time Was Only 92.6m Across 301 JSONL entries, 9 requests failed with TerminalStreamChunkError: model concurrency limit exceeded (lines 14, 16, 87, 99, 144, 184, 197, 240, 276). Because ZCode stops the loop on stream errors instead of retrying with backoff, the session sat idle waiting for manual 'continue' input for a total of 9,179.6s (152.99 minutes).
- Exact Breakdown of the 9 Pause Gaps: L014βL015 (6.2s), L016βL017 (6.6s), L087βL088 (13.15m / 789.0s at 10:55β11:08), L099βL100 (132.10m / 7,926.3s at 11:11:25β13:23:32 when the halted session went unnoticed for over 2 hours), L144βL145 (11.9s), L184βL185 (4.51m / 270.4s at 13:43β13:47), L197βL198 (8.5s), L240βL241 (2.59m / 155.5s at 14:00β14:02), and L276βL277 (5.4s).
- Active Time Split (92.63m Total): Excluding the 9 manual 'continue' pauses, active execution took 92.63 minutes (5,557.7s)βsplit between 59.79 minutes (64.5%) in LLM inference across 292 successful calls and 32.84 minutes (35.5%) in local tool execution.
- Cache Expiry Impact ($0.39 Extra Cost): The 132.1m pause at L100 expired the upstream prefix cache (dropping
cacheReadTokensfrom 94,080 to 16,896 and re-billing 77,750 tokens as uncached input), and two later upstream cache evictions at L203 (119,969 uncached tokens) and L261 (145,452 uncached tokens) lowered the overall cache hit rate to 98.44%.
Omitting 'def application' in
mix.exsTriggered a 60-Turn Custom Compiler & ':wrong_password' PEM Rabbit Hole (S3)- Missing extra_applications Declaration: The agent never added def application do [extra_applications: [
:logger,:ssl,:public_key]] end tomix.exs. Because Mix prunes unreferenced OTP applications from the code path, Elixir 1.20's type checker emitted undefined-module warnings for:ssland:public_key. - 44 Turns Building Mix.Tasks.Compile.LoadOtpModules (Lines 82β125) Instead of adding extra_applications to
mix.exs, the agent spent 44 turns writing a custom Mix compiler task insidemix.exsthat scans:code.root_dir()/lib for 'ssl-' and 'public_key-' directories and injects their ebin paths via:code.add_path/1. - 38 Turns Debugging a Phantom '
:wrong_password' TLS Key Error (Lines 149β188) When running HTTPS tests,:ssl.listen/2failed with {:options, {:keyfile, {...,:wrong_password}}} on unencrypted OpenSSL test keys. Because:asn1was also missing from the pruned code path,:public_key.pem_entry_decode/1crashed with an internal undef error that OTP's:sslcaught and misreported as:wrong_password. After 38 turns testing openssl genrsa and pkey -traditional, the agent discovered:asn1was unloaded at line 181 and added 'asn1-' to @otp_prefixes inmix.exs(line 187).

No Credo or 'mix check': Substituted '
mix format' + 'mix compile --warnings-as-errors' DespitePLAN.mdRule- No Static Linter Installed: Even though
PLAN.mdline 128β129 explicitly states 'Formatting and compilation do not substitute for linting', the agent left deps: [] empty inmix.exsand never installed Credo or defined a mix check alias. - README Lint Section (Line 52): In S1, the agent documented '
mix format--check-formatted' and 'mix compile --warnings-as-errors' under 'Lint (formatting check and strict compilation)' inREADME.mdand reported lint as passing in its release verification notes.

Flaky 'Started: 50' Integration Assertion Causes 36/37 Test Result Under Scheduling Drift
- Cumulative Sleep Drift Across 49 Pacing Gaps In
CapyBench.Runner.loop/5(lib/capy_bench/runner.ex:67β69), the runner sleepsProcess.sleep(state.last_dispatch + 100 - now)between dispatches over a 5,000 ms window. Whenever OS/BEAM timer oversleep + dispatch overhead averages >= 2.04 ms across 49 gaps (49 * 102.05 ms > 5,000 ms), the 50th iteration hits now >= deadline and the run finishes with Started: 49 instead of Started: 50. - Observed in the Agent's Own Release Verification (Line 295) When the agent ran
./cbagainst its local HTTPS server at line 295, it got Started: 49 and HTTP responses: 49 (200: 49) (which it even recorded inPLAN.mdline 135), yet it left assert out =~ "Started: 50" hardcoded intest/capy_bench/cli_http_test.exs(lines 16, 29) andtest/capy_bench/cli_loop_test.exs(line 14), causing 1 of 37 tests to fail when re-run.
