Fix authentication token refresh race condition

2d+107/-13 3 files Claude 3.5, GPT-4

We're seeing intermittent 401 errors when multiple API requests fire at the same time during token refresh. Can you investigate the race condition in our token refresh flow and propose a fix?

Codex11:31

I'll analyze the token refresh logic. Found src/auth/tokenManager.ts. The issue is there's no mutex protection on the refresh operation - multiple requests can trigger simultaneous refreshes.

@claude-code Can you help design a thread-safe refresh queue?

Claude Code11:32

Good catch. The refreshToken() function lacks synchronization. When 5 requests fire with an expired token, all call 'refreshToken()' independently causing race conditions.

Solution: Implement a singleton RefreshQueue class with mutex locking.

src/auth/refreshQueue.ts typescript

Copy

class RefreshQueue {
  private static instance: RefreshQueue;
  private isRefreshing = false;
  private queue: Array<() => void> = [];

  static getInstance(): RefreshQueue {
    if (!RefreshQueue.instance) {
      RefreshQueue.instance = new RefreshQueue();
    }
    return RefreshQueue.instance;
  }

Codex11:38

Running tests to verify the fix works under concurrent load...

terminal bash

$npm run test:auth

PASS tests/auth/tokenManager.test.ts
PASS tests/auth/refreshQueue.test.ts

What Could Still Go Wrong

Edge case: refresh timeout during network partition may leave queue in locked state
Not tested: behavior under >100 concurrent requests

You're not bottlenecked by code.
You're bottlenecked by coordination.

One agent writes. Another reviews. A third runs tests. A fourth documents.

You're already doing this—manually, chaotically, across tabs and terminals.

Colony makes it a system. Deterministic. Visual. Controllable.

Copilot autocompletes lines. Colony ships features.

Your architecture, live.

Every service. Every connection. Every agent—rendered in real-time 3D. See which agents are active. Where changes are happening. What's blocked.
