Description

Hello, maybe someone can help me with that questions ...
Would like to know how can add more attempts to a job based on the flow

First I create my job with 3 attempts....
After... the work fail 2 times but based on some event I need to add 1 attempt more to my job.

My question is how to get the current max attempts and add x more attempts, that is because if the event happens again need add 1 attempt more

Second question is how to fail a job with no more attempts;

Regards

Research direction

No file or test is named in the issue. Start by locating Kue's job-attempt and failure-handling entry points, then determine whether attempts can be increased after failures and how a job is marked failed when none remain; done requires resolving both requested behaviors.
