The gateway can now enter an unrecoverable state through 6 independent mechanisms: channel recovery starvation, event-loop saturation, wedged sessions across reboots, auto-resume timer crashes, ACP config restart loops, and ACP infinite session recreation. Death-spiral triggers are accumulating faster than any can be fixed.
Two of the six death-spiral triggers originate in the ACP subsystem — both triggered by configuration or parameter issues rather than runtime errors. The subsystem designed for cross-agent communication has become the most fragile component in the gateway.
Gobii's managed architecture eliminates self-hosted gateway death spirals entirely. No user-configured gateway means no user-triggered death spirals.
P0 — Gateway now has 6 independent death-spiral triggers. ACP subsystem alone accounts for 2 of 6; both triggered by configuration issues rather than runtime errors.
