Cian Johnston e8508b2d90 fix: recover chatd from poisoned chain anchor on retry (#25097)
When OpenAI's Responses API returns `Previous response with id ... not
found` for a chained turn, classify it as a `ChainBroken` retry, clear
`previous_response_id`, exit chain mode, reload full history, and let
`chatretry` retry. Self-heals chats whose anchor was poisoned before
#25074 stopped truncated streams from being persisted as a successful
turn with a stored response id.

The new state is exposed via the existing
`coderd_chatd_stream_retries_total` counter as a
`chain_broken="true"|"false"` label. Aggregating queries (`sum`, `rate`
over `provider`/`model`/`kind`) keep working without changes; raw-series
matchers without aggregation will now see two series per `(provider,
model, kind)` where they previously saw one. The metric is internal-only
so the blast radius should be small, but if you have dashboards that
index by exact label matchers without aggregation they will need an
extra `sum` or an explicit `chain_broken` selector.

Metrics Documentation Generator

This tool generates the Prometheus metrics documentation at docs/admin/integrations/prometheus.md.

How It Works

The documentation is generated from two metrics files:

  1. metrics (static, manually maintained)
  2. generated_metrics (auto-generated, do not edit)

These files are merged and used to produce the final documentation.

metrics (static)

Contains metrics that are not directly defined in the coder source code:

  • go_*: Go runtime metrics
  • process_*: Process metrics from prometheus/client_golang
  • promhttp_*: Prometheus HTTP handler metrics
  • coder_aibridged_*: Metrics from external dependencies

Note

This file also contains edge cases where metric metadata cannot be accurately extracted by the scanner (e.g., labels determined by runtime logic). Static metrics take priority over generated metrics when both files contain the same metric name.

Edit this file to add metrics that should appear in the documentation but are not scanned from the coder codebase, or to manually override metrics where the scanner generates incorrect metadata (e.g., missing runtime-determined labels like in agent_scripts_executed_total).

generated_metrics (auto-generated)

Contains metrics extracted from the coder source code by the AST scanner (scanner/scanner.go).

Do not edit this file directly. It is regenerated by running:

make scripts/metricsdocgen/generated_metrics

Updating Metrics Documentation

To regenerate the documentation after code changes:

make docs/admin/integrations/prometheus.md

This will:

  • Run the scanner to update generated_metrics
  • Merge metrics and generated_metrics metric files
  • Update the documentation file
