Devin FoleyandClaude Opus 5.5 434d224c3a fix(ui): retry stale chunk reloads while a deploy settles (#19361)
## Thinking Path

> - Paperclip is the open source app people use to manage AI agents for
work.
> - The board UI loads each page as a lazy chunk. After a deploy, an
open tab can ask for a chunk from its old build.
> - #17349 added a recovery: the app reloads the page one time when a
chunk fails to load. A loop guard permits only one reload in five
minutes.
> - Staging error monitoring still reports `Failed to fetch dynamically
imported module` from builds that include #17349. The events come 1–10
seconds after page load, and 1–10 minutes after page load.
> - During a deploy, the old server and the new server can both answer
for some seconds. The reloaded page can then miss a chunk again. Also, a
second deploy can occur inside the five-minute window. In both cases the
guard stops the recovery, and the user sees the error page. One more
reload a few seconds later would recover.
> - #18518 keeps old chunks available after a deploy, but only on
deployments that enable shared UI assets. Other deployments still depend
on the reload recovery.
> - This pull request permits up to three reloads in the guard window.
The reloads wait 0 s, 2 s and 5 s, so that the deploy can settle. After
the last reload, the error page shows and reports as before.
> - The benefit is that a stale tab recovers through a normal deploy
without an error page and without error-monitoring noise. A chunk that
stays broken still shows the error after a small, fixed number of
reloads.

## Linked Issues or Issue Description

Refs #17349
Refs #18518

**What happened?**
A browser tab stayed open during a staging deploy. A lazy page chunk
failed to load with `TypeError: Failed to fetch dynamically imported
module`. The route error boundary showed "This page hit an error" and
reported the error. The release included the one-time reload from
#17349. The reload did not occur because the loop guard had already used
its single reload in the last five minutes.

**Expected behavior**
The app reloads again after a short wait while the deploy settles, and
the page loads. The error page shows only when the chunk stays broken.

**Steps to reproduce**
1. Open a board page on a deployment without shared UI assets.
2. Deploy a new build. While the old and new servers both answer, go to
a page that was not loaded yet.
3. The chunk fails, and the page reloads one time.
4. The reloaded page gets its HTML from one server and a chunk request
goes to the other server. The chunk fails again.
5. The guard stops the recovery, and the route error page shows.

## What Changed

- `ui/src/lib/chunk-load-recovery.ts`: The recovery permits up to three
reloads in the five-minute guard window. The reloads wait 0 s, 2 s and 5
s (`RELOAD_DELAYS_MS`). After the third reload, the recovery returns
`false`, and the boundary shows and reports the error as before.
- Storage stays compatible with older builds.
`paperclip:chunk-load-reload-at` still holds only the bare start time of
the window, so an older build keeps its one-reload guard during a
deploy. The retry count is in a separate key,
`paperclip:chunk-load-reload-attempts` (`<window start>:<attempts>`).
The count applies only to the matching window. A window that an older
build started counts as one reload.
- A delayed retry keeps its timer. The new
`cancelPendingChunkLoadReload()` stops a retry that has not started.
`RouteErrorBoundary` calls it when the user moves to another route, and
when the boundary unmounts. A working page is therefore not reloaded
later.
- The abandonment timer starts after the delay, so a delayed reload gets
the full 10 s before the boundary reports.
- A reload that does not leave the document (for example, the user
cancels it) is not tried again from the same document. This keeps the
behavior from #17349.
- Tests: unit tests for delayed retries, the retry limit, compatibility
with older builds, a stale retry count, and cancellation. Boundary tests
start from a delayed attempt and cancel it on navigation. The e2e spec
for a lazy CSS asset that stays broken now expects 4 page loads before
the error page.

## Verification

- `cd ui && npx vitest run src/lib/chunk-load-recovery.test.ts
src/components/RouteErrorBoundary.test.tsx
src/components/AppErrorBoundary.test.tsx`: 3 files, 32 tests pass.
- Red before the fix: with the new tests, the first PR head fails 5
tests (older-build key, cancellation, cancel on navigation). The
original `master` code fails the retry tests. With this head, all pass.
- `tsc --noEmit -p ui/tsconfig.json` shows no errors in the changed
files.
- `tests/e2e/chunk-load-recovery.spec.ts` runs in CI.
- Manual check: on a deployment without shared UI assets, open a page,
deploy, and go to a page that was not loaded. The page reloads, and it
loads after the deploy settles. If you move to another page during the
wait, the page does not reload.

## Risks

- Low risk. The change affects only the chunk-load recovery path.
- A chunk that stays broken now causes up to three reloads (about 7 s of
waits in total) before the error page shows. Before, it caused one
reload. The limit stays fixed in each five-minute window, so a reload
loop cannot occur, also when old and new builds alternate.
- A retry that the `vite:preloadError` listener starts is not tied to a
route, so navigation does not cancel it. This matches the behavior
before this change, where that reload occurred at once.
- No server, data, or contract changes.

## Model Used

- Claude Opus 5.5 (`claude-opus-5-5`) by Anthropic, used through Claude
Code with tool use (shell, file edits and GitHub connector). Standard
context window, with reasoning.
