KQ-744 · STREAM/RETRY

Stream Retry

A stream that can fail mid-answer and pick itself back up. When the host marks it failed the tail frays — the last characters step down in opacity, five dots cascade in after them and an inline Retry control arrives on snap; nothing bounces, because a failure is not an event to celebrate. Retry is a button reached by Tab, and when the stream reopens the seam heals with a hairline that brightens and fades on a slow tween so the reader can see where the answer was joined.
