Rust RQD can now identify and kill frames that have stopped making progress: no log write, no CPU movement, no IO, and no change in the session's process composition for longer than the configured window. This complements timeout_llu, which is a blind log-staleness timeout enforced by Cuebot and cannot tell a hung frame from one that is legitimately quiet during a long computation. Detection is opt-in per service/layer via a new stuck_detection_llu field (minutes, 0 = never inspect, proto3 default keeps old Cuebots inert) plumbed through service/show_service/layer (V48 migration), JobSpec inheritance, the dispatch queries, and RunFrame. The verdict runs inline in RQD's monitor loop using counters the /proc walk already collects (utime+stime, /proc/pid/io, (pid, starttime) session set) plus an in-process last-write timestamp on the frame logger, which works for Loki-backed frames and never stats a possibly hung filesystem. Every uncertain signal fails open, and non-Linux platforms can never flag. The kill runs on a detached task so a footer write to a hung NFS log path can never stall the monitor loop, writes a per-process evidence footer (state, wchan, syscall) to the frame log, and reports exit status 303 (EXIT_STATUS_FRAME_STUCK). Cuebot returns 303 frames to WAITING while retries remain, since hangs are usually host-local. A failed kill unfreezes stats so the next cycle retries. ServiceDialog and LayerDialog expose the new field in cuegui, with a warning when timeout_llu would fire before stuck detection can verify. Upgrade note: adding the RunFrame proto field changes the bincode layout of RQD frame snapshots, so hosts must be drained before rolling this RQD version out. Scheduler-dispatched frames send 0 (not yet plumbed through the scheduler's dispatch path).

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe change adds a configurable stuck-frame timeout across Cuebot, protobuf APIs, PostgreSQL persistence, CueGUI, Python wrappers, and RQD. RQD tracks log, CPU, I/O, and process-composition progress, records evidence, kills stuck frames, and reports retryable exit status 303. ChangesStuck-frame detection
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to The opt-in stuck-frame feature is not ready to merge because RQD currently fails to compile. It also retains unresolved cases that could terminate valid work, mishandle retries, or produce inaccurate diagnostics. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Do not report the last progress time as the last counter movement.
last_progress_at is updated for log writes, CPU changes, I/O changes, and process-composition changes. The footer renders that value as Last counter move. A log-only or composition-only change can therefore produce a false counter timestamp. Store a separate counter timestamp or rename the footer field to Last progress.

Set the footer guard after confirming that a logger exists.
spawn_running_frame adds the frame to the machine before scheduling run(recover_mode). A monitor call can therefore reach write_stuck_footer while attached_logger is None; the current swap(true, ...) then suppresses later footer writes. Move the atomic swap after the Some(logger) check.

Rust RQD can now identify and kill frames that have stopped making progress: no log write, no CPU movement, no IO, and no change in the session's process composition for longer than the configured window. This complements timeout_llu, which is a blind log-staleness timeout enforced by Cuebot and cannot tell a hung frame from one that is legitimately quiet during a long computation.
Detection is opt-in per service/layer via a new stuck_detection_llu field (minutes, 0 = never inspect, proto3 default keeps old Cuebots inert) plumbed through service/show_service/layer (V48 migration), JobSpec inheritance, the dispatch queries, and RunFrame. The verdict runs inline in RQD's monitor loop using counters the /proc walk already collects (utime+stime, /proc/pid/io, (pid, starttime) session set) plus an in-process last-write timestamp on the frame logger, which works for Loki-backed frames and never stats a possibly hung filesystem. Every uncertain signal fails open, and non-Linux platforms can never flag.
The kill runs on a detached task so a footer write to a hung NFS log path can never stall the monitor loop, writes a per-process evidence footer (state, wchan, syscall) to the frame log, and reports exit status 303 (EXIT_STATUS_FRAME_STUCK). Cuebot returns 303 frames to WAITING while retries remain, since hangs are usually host-local. A failed kill unfreezes stats so the next cycle retries.
ServiceDialog and LayerDialog expose the new field in cuegui, with a warning when timeout_llu would fire before stuck detection can verify.
Upgrade note: adding the RunFrame proto field changes the bincode layout of RQD frame snapshots, so hosts must be drained before rolling this RQD version out. Scheduler-dispatched frames send 0 (not yet plumbed through the scheduler's dispatch path).
