Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the MessageGatewayService receive-messages retry path and the logged websocket close 1006/unexpected EOF error. Determine what causes the retry limit to be reached on ECS hosts and what evidence distinguishes an agent problem from an infrastructure or connection problem. Done means the cause and an actionable resolution are documented or the behavior is corrected and verified against the reported failure.
