| description | Internal downstream skill for ctf-sandbox-orchestrator. CTF-sandbox workflow for queues, async workers, cron jobs, delayed tasks, retry behavior, worker-only config drift, and payload-to-side-effect chains. Use when the user asks to trace a queue payload, inspect async job execution, explain worker-only behavior, follow retries or dead-letter handling, or connect an enqueued item to a later file, cache, email, or privilege-bearing side effect. Use only after `$ctf-sandbox-orchestrator` has already established sandbox assumptions and routed here. |
Competition Queue Worker Drift
Use this skill only as a downstream specialization after $ctf-sandbox-orchestrator is already active and has established sandbox assumptions, node ownership, and evidence priorities. If that has not happened yet, return to $ctf-sandbox-orchestrator first.
Use this skill when the decisive effect happens after enqueue, inside a worker, or only under async runtime state that differs from the request path.
Reply in Simplified Chinese unless the user explicitly requests English.
Quick Start
- Map the async chain first: enqueue point, queue payload, worker consumer, retries, and final side effect.
- Keep request-time state separate from worker-time state.
- Record queue name, message shape, worker config, retry policy, and downstream store in one chain.
- Compare synchronous path and async path when behavior diverges.
- Reproduce the smallest enqueue-to-side-effect flow that proves the decisive async drift.
Workflow
1. Map Enqueue And Worker Identity
- Record queue names, topics, cron schedules, delayed jobs, dead-letter queues, worker processes, and consumer groups.
- Note which config, env vars, feature flags, or credentials exist only in the worker environment.
- Keep enqueue request, stored payload, and worker identity tied together.
2. Trace Worker-Only State And Retries
