Errors

WORK_DEAD_LETTERED

Runtime work exhausted its retry budget.

What failed

A work item retried until maxAttempts and moved to the dead-letter terminal state.

Why

The runtime stops retrying to avoid hot loops and preserve the last error for inspection.

What still works

Other work continues. The dead-lettered item remains inspectable and can be explicitly retried after the cause is fixed.

Fix

Inspect, fix the cause, then retry:

crux runtime inspect <workId>
crux runtime retry <workId>
