Description

Instead of writing to the main file, we should create a backup, write to it and then copy it over.

First steps

  1. Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
  2. Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
  3. Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
  4. Open a pull request that references the issue number.

Research direction

Start by locating the queue's main file-writing path in the repository and trace how the current file is updated. Implementing the requested backup-and-replace flow should be considered done when writes no longer modify the main file directly and the queue remains readable afterward.
