Roo Code Task Context (Optional)

No Roo Code task context for this PR

Description

This PR implements a persistent telemetry queue system that stores failed telemetry events locally and retries them when the connection to Roo Code Cloud is restored. This ensures no telemetry data is lost during network outages or API downtime.

Key Implementation Details:

  • TelemetryQueueManager: Singleton class with persistent storage using VSCode's global state API, priority queue for error events, exponential backoff retry logic
  • ConnectionMonitor: Real-time connection monitoring with 30-second health checks
  • Smart Integration: Automatic queuing of failed events, batch processing for efficiency, feature flag for safe rollout
  • User Feedback: Connection status shown in account view with offline warning

Review Fixes Applied:
During internal review, the following critical issues were identified and fixed:

  • Replaced all console.error statements with proper logging service
  • Added proper error handling and recovery in CloudService
  • Fixed type safety issues and memory leaks
  • Added performance optimizations with debouncing
  • Added security validation for queue loading

Test Procedure

Automated Tests:

  • 43 comprehensive unit tests covering all new functionality
  • All tests passing in both cloud and src packages

Manual Testing Steps:

  1. Enable the feature flag: "telemetryQueueEnabled": true (default)
  2. Simulate offline scenario:
    • Disconnect network or block API requests
    • Perform actions that generate telemetry
    • Check that events are queued (visible in logs)
  3. Restore connection:
    • Reconnect network
    • Verify queued events are sent automatically
    • Check connection status updates in UI
  4. Test persistence:
    • Queue some events while offline
    • Restart VSCode
    • Verify events are still queued and sent when online

  • Contribution Guidelines: I have read and agree to the Contributor Guidelines.

Screenshots / Videos

No UI changes in this PR (only connection status indicator in account view)

Documentation Updates

  • No documentation updates are required.
  • Yes, documentation updates are required. The following should be documented:
    • New telemetryQueueEnabled feature flag
    • Connection status indicator behavior
    • Offline telemetry handling

Additional Notes

Performance Considerations:

  • Queue processing is debounced to prevent excessive operations
  • Batch processing limits to 50 events at a time
  • Maximum queue size of 1000 events with automatic cleanup

Future Enhancements:

  • Make queue configuration parameters adjustable via settings
  • Add translations for connection status messages in other languages
  • Add metrics for queue usage and success rates

Known Limitations:

  • Queue parameters are currently hardcoded (will be made configurable in follow-up PR)
  • Only English translations added (other languages pending)

Consider using AbortController to handle cleanup of the timeout more robustly, especially since this is in an async context where the instance might be disposed before the timeout executes.

Suggested change
this.processQueueDebounceTimer = setTimeout(() => {
if (this.processQueueAbortController) {
this.processQueueAbortController.abort();
}
this.processQueueAbortController = new AbortController();
const signal = this.processQueueAbortController.signal;
this.processQueueDebounceTimer = setTimeout(() => {
if (signal.aborted) {
return;
}

The timeout value of 5000ms is hardcoded. Consider making this configurable or storing it as a class constant for better maintainability.

Suggested change
const timeoutId = setTimeout(() => controller.abort(), 5000) // 5 second timeout
const timeoutId = setTimeout(() => controller.abort(), this.defaultTimeoutMs) // 5 second timeout

The queue validation multiplies maxQueueSize by 2 without bounds checking. Consider adding an absolute maximum limit to prevent potential memory exhaustion attacks through corrupted storage.

The debounce timer is declared in a closure but not properly cleaned up on dispose. This could lead to memory leaks if the service is disposed while a timer is pending.

Critical: Memory leak - The connectionRestoredDebounceTimer declared on line 113 is not cleaned up in the dispose() method. This could cause memory leaks if the service is disposed while a timer is pending.

Consider adding cleanup in the dispose method:

Suggested change
if (this.connectionMonitor) {
if (this.connectionMonitor) {
this.connectionMonitor.dispose();
}
// Clean up any pending debounce timer
if (connectionRestoredDebounceTimer) {
clearTimeout(connectionRestoredDebounceTimer);
}

clearTimeout(this.processQueueDebounceTimer)

The previous suggestion about using AbortController for more robust timeout handling hasn't been addressed. The current implementation could have issues if the instance is disposed before the timeout executes. Would you consider implementing the AbortController pattern for better cleanup?

The timeout value is still hardcoded as 5000ms. Consider making this configurable by adding a class constant:

Suggested change
const timeoutId = setTimeout(() => controller.abort(), 5000) // 5 second timeout
private readonly defaultTimeoutMs = 5000
const timeoutId = setTimeout(() => controller.abort(), this.defaultTimeoutMs)

Security concern: The queue validation multiplies maxQueueSize by 2 without bounds checking. This could lead to memory exhaustion if the stored queue is corrupted. Consider adding an absolute maximum:

Suggested change
if (storedQueue.length > this.maxQueueSize * 2) {
private static readonly ABSOLUTE_MAX_QUEUE_SIZE = 5000;
// ...
const effectiveMaxSize = Math.min(this.maxQueueSize * 2, TelemetryQueueManager.ABSOLUTE_MAX_QUEUE_SIZE);
if (storedQueue.length > effectiveMaxSize) {

crypto.randomUUID() may not be available in all environments. Consider adding a fallback:

id: crypto.randomUUID(),
id: typeof crypto !== 'undefined' && crypto.randomUUID ? crypto.randomUUID() : `fallback-${Date.now()}-${Math.random().toString(36).substr(2, 9)}`,

Error handling could be improved in processBatchedEvents. Currently, if one event fails validation, it continues but if fetch fails for one event, it could affect the entire batch. Consider wrapping individual event processing in try-catch to ensure one bad event doesn't stop the entire batch.

The dynamic import for ContextProxy could fail. Consider adding more robust error handling:

try {
const { ContextProxy } = await import("../../../src/core/config/ContextProxy")
isQueueEnabled = ContextProxy.instance.getValue("telemetryQueueEnabled") ?? true
} catch (error) {
// Default to enabled if we can't access settings

Typographical error: In the offlineWarning message, the word “s'encularan” appears to be a misspelling. It likely should be “s'encolaran” to correctly convey that telemetry events will be queued when the connection is restored.

Suggested change
"offlineWarning": "Ara mateix estàs sense connexió. Els esdeveniments de telemetria s'encularan i s'enviaran quan es restableixi la connexió."
