 - The shared `inference` WorkerBus pool's `maxWorkers` capped at 2 (was 4) — each replica
   independently loads its own transformers.js pipeline with no cross-replica cache sharing, so 4
   concurrent workers under a burst could mean 4x the model memory footprint.
+- **Vercel auto-deploy paused mid-term** after 2 consecutive preview-deployment failures with only a
+  generic "Deployment has failed" message and no reproducing local failure — GitHub Pages and
+  Cloudflare Pages remain live and unaffected while the platform-side cause is investigated.
 
 ### Fixed

   `tsgo` typecheck. Root-caused by reproducing Vercel's *exact* build command
   (`pnpm run build:edge`, which differs from the plain `pnpm run build` used for an earlier,
   misleading local repro attempt) and fixed by adding the missing function.
+- **A reused `AbortSignal` leaked one `'abort'` listener per call** in `duckdbClient.ts`'s `send()`
+  — `{once: true}` only self-removes once the signal actually fires, so a caller reusing one signal
+  across many non-aborted queries (a common hook/thunk pattern) accumulated listeners for the
+  signal's whole lifetime. Fixed with an explicit `finally`-block `removeEventListener`.
+- **`ensureDuckDbPool()`/`ensureInferencePool()` could reject instead of degrading gracefully** —
+  their pool re-registration helpers awaited a lazy import and called `registerPool()` without a
+  catch, so a re-registration failure after the bus was already live broke the documented "returns
+  null only if init failed" contract. Both now log the failure and return the live bus instead of
+  propagating the rejection.
