## Summary
1 improvement, 1 bug fix.
## Improvements
- Fail attempts on uncaught exceptions instead of hanging to
`MAX_DURATION_EXCEEDED`. A Node `EventEmitter` (e.g. `node-redis`)
emitting `"error"` with no `.on("error", ...)` listener escalates to
`uncaughtException`, which the worker previously reported but did not
act on — runs drifted to maxDuration with empty attempts. They now fail
fast with the original error and status `FAILED`, and respect the task's
normal retry policy. You should still attach `.on("error", ...)`
listeners to long-lived clients to handle errors gracefully.
([#3529](https://github.com/triggerdotdev/trigger.dev/pull/3529))
## Bug fixes
- Fix dev workers spinning at 100% CPU after the parent CLI disconnects.
Orphaned `trigger-dev-run-worker` (and indexer) processes were caught in
an `uncaughtException` feedback loop: a periodic IPC send via
`process.send` would throw `ERR_IPC_CHANNEL_CLOSED` once the parent
closed the channel, which re-entered the same handler that itself called
`process.send`, scheduled via `setImmediate` and amplified by
source-map-support's `prepareStackTrace`. Fixed by (1) silently dropping
packets in `ZodIpcConnection` when the channel is disconnected, (2)
adding a `process.on("disconnect", ...)` handler in dev workers so they
exit cleanly when the CLI closes the IPC channel, and (3) wrapping all
`uncaughtException`-path `process.send` calls in a `safeSend` guard that
checks `process.connected` and swallows synchronous throws.

Server Changes
This directory tracks changes to server-only components (webapp, supervisor, coordinator, etc.) that are not captured by changesets. Changesets only track published npm packages — server changes would otherwise go undocumented.
When to add a file
Server-only PRs: If your PR only changes apps/webapp/, apps/supervisor/, apps/coordinator/, or other server components (and does NOT change anything in packages/), add a .server-changes/ file.
Mixed PRs (both packages and server): Just add a changeset as usual. No .server-changes/ file needed — the changeset covers it.
Package-only PRs: Just add a changeset as usual.
File format
Create a markdown file with a descriptive name:
.server-changes/fix-batch-queue-stalls.md
With this format:
---
area: webapp
type: fix
---
Speed up batch queue processing by removing stalls and fixing retry race
Fields
- area (required):
webapp|supervisor|coordinator|kubernetes-provider|docker-provider - type (required):

Description
The body text (below the frontmatter) is a one-line description of the change. Keep it concise — it will appear in release notes.
Lifecycle
- Engineer adds a
.server-changes/file in their PR - Files accumulate on
mainas PRs merge - The changeset release PR includes these in its summary
- After the release merges, CI cleans up the consumed files
