Problem

Unpublished lite-07 replaced SUBSCRIBE_DROP with a stream count, leaving skipped sequences and failed group sends without an explicit disposition.

Approach

Restore SUBSCRIBE_DROP and remove Stream Count on lite-07. Rust and JS use range-based tail accounting, declare the end while lower groups are in flight, and report failed sends through the response stream. Add lite-07 to relay tail interop.

DROP writes backpressure new group opens. The queue retains at most failures from the tasks already in flight when the writer stalls; the existing in-flight set has no fixed group-count cap. A regression holds eight failures behind a blocked response and proves 64 later groups remain unopened until it drains. A failed-group benchmark sweeps publishers and subscribers independently and runs in Nightly.

A JS group stream that fails after its FIN, before delivery is acknowledged, is also dropped, matching Rust (Codex review). The JS end sweep also counts sent datagrams, sharing one served set with group streams as Rust does, so it no longer drops a datagram it already sent (Codex review; this predates the PR on lite-05/06).

This completes quest/m1/subscribe-drop.md, so it is deleted. The reader-visible DROP work moves to the new quest/m1/subscribe-drop-errors.md, which takes its place in the m1 README and as a blocker of lite-07 finalization.

Impact

  • Public API: remove SubscribeEnd.streams and the stream-count version helpers (Version::has_stream_count, hasStreamCount) in Rust and JS. Both MIGRATE.md files explain the update.
  • Wire: moq-lite-07-wip restores response type 0x2 and removes Stream Count from SUBSCRIBE_END. Published lite-05/06 keep their framing and existing application-specific DROP error meaning.
  • Lite-03/04 publishers continue to emit no DROP.

Alternatives

Keep one accounting mechanism. Preserve the published application-specific error field, where 0 means unavailable without an error, rather than reusing stream-reset numeric codes.

Decisions

Scope of this PR (maintainer, 2026-10-19):

  1. ✅ Split: land this PR as the lite-07 framing and accounting change, and move the reader-error work into a follow-up quest. lite-07 is unpublished, so the wire can still change after.
  2. Keep this PR open and implement the remaining behavior once the error mapping is settled.

Follow-ups

  • Readers see SUBSCRIBE_DROP (quest/m1/subscribe-drop-errors.md): a dropped or cut group ends its reader with an error across cache reclaim, cap changes, and recovery. Its first decision is whether SubscribeDrop.error stays application-specific or carries the stream-reset codes on lite-07 only (recommended: the stream-reset codes on lite-07).

Validation

  • just check: passed on the final head (Rust and JS suites, lint).
  • just test interop --all: passed on the final head, including browser lanes and all 11 finite-tail/DROP lanes (lite-05, 06, and 07-wip, Rust and Node in both directions).
  • just drafts check and quest check: passed.
  • Failed-group sweep: nine publisher/subscriber shapes, 128 groups, three repetitions; every dropped sequence verified and parsed into the Nightly report. Timings are observations, with no threshold.

Checkpoint 683b1ac preserves the settled lite-07 framing, tail accounting, failed-send reporting, bounded-by-in-flight DROP backlog, regression, and Nightly benchmark. The quest stays open for DROP error interpretation and cut/resume persistence.

Final JS net tests: 2,131 passed. The required just check reached 6,029 passing native tests, then failed the impaired transport-peer relay drill with seed 11851312523416585408; an isolated run with that seed passed, so the full gate remains unresolved. Draft/quest validation and Nightly wiring checks passed. Full cross-language interop is pending with the batch coordinator.

Next: settle the error contract, then use /quest-iterate for the remaining behavior and gates.

The lite-07 framing and accounting land here, completing subscribe-drop. The reader error contract, cut persistence, and recovery precedence move to subscribe-drop-errors, which now gates lite-07 finalization in its place.

Walkthrough

The change removes stream counts from SUBSCRIBE_END and adds SUBSCRIBE_DROP reporting for undelivered groups. JavaScript and Rust publishers send the final group boundary independently of group-stream completion and report failed deliveries. Subscribers settle tails using received groups, drop ranges, and the grace period. Tests, interoperability coverage, benchmark scripts, migration notes, and protocol documentation are updated.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 2d42a

A group reported as dropped can still reach a reader as a clean delivery in a narrow failure case. Resolve the reader-error behavior or explicitly accept this limitation before merging.

The publisher swallowed a rejected close, so a group stream that failed before delivery was acknowledged queued no SUBSCRIBE_DROP, unlike Rust.

The JS publisher's end sweep only knew about group streams, so it sent SUBSCRIBE_DROP for datagrams it had already sent and a subscriber could settle before they arrived. Groups and datagrams now share one served set, as in Rust.
