json.JSONDecodeError inherits from ValueError. The agent loop's
non-retryable classifier at run_agent.py ~L10782 treated any
ValueError/TypeError as a local programming bug and short-circuited
retry. Without a carve-out, a transient JSONDecodeError from a
provider that returned a malformed response body, a truncated stream,
or a router-layer corruption would fail the turn immediately.
Add JSONDecodeError to the existing UnicodeEncodeError exclusion
tuple so the classified-retry logic (which already handles 429/529/
context-overflow/etc.) gets to run on bad-JSON errors.
Tests (tests/run_agent/test_jsondecodeerror_retryable.py):
- JSONDecodeError: NOT local validation
- UnicodeEncodeError: NOT local validation (existing carve-out)
- bare ValueError: IS local validation (programming bug)
- bare TypeError: IS local validation (programming bug)
- source-level assertion that run_agent.py still carries the carve-out
(guards against accidental revert)

"""Regression guard for #14782: json.JSONDecodeError must not be classified
|
|
as a local validation error by the main agent loop.
|
|
|
|
`json.JSONDecodeError` inherits from `ValueError`. The agent loop's
|
|
non-retryable classifier at run_agent.py treats `ValueError` / `TypeError`
|
|
as local programming bugs and skips retry. Without an explicit carve-out,
|
|
a transient provider hiccup (malformed response body, truncated stream,
|
|
routing-layer corruption) that surfaces as a JSONDecodeError would bypass
|
|
the retry path and fail the turn immediately.
|
|
|
|
This test mirrors the exact predicate shape used in run_agent.py so that
|
|
any future refactor of that predicate must preserve the invariant:
|
|
|
|
JSONDecodeError → NOT local validation error (retryable)
|
|
UnicodeEncodeError → NOT local validation error (surrogate path)
|
|
bare ValueError → IS local validation error (programming bug)
|
|
bare TypeError → IS local validation error (programming bug)
