Add client disconnect handling and documentation to concurrent streaming

[justin808]

Summary

Improves error handling and documentation for concurrent component streaming (building on #2015).

Changes

1. 🚨 Client Disconnect Handling

Previously, if a client disconnected mid-stream, producer and writer tasks would continue processing unnecessarily, wasting server resources.

Added:

• IOError and Errno::EPIPE exception handling in producer tasks
• response.stream.closed? check before expensive fiber operations
• Exception handling in writer task for graceful shutdown
• Prevents wasted CPU cycles when clients disconnect

Code location: react_on_rails_pro/lib/react_on_rails_pro/concerns/stream.rb:96-109, 113-125

2. 📚 Documentation Enhancements

Added comprehensive documentation for:

• Producer-consumer pattern explanation
• Ordering guarantees:
  • Chunks from same component maintain their order
  • Chunks from different components may interleave based on timing
• Memory management strategy:
  • Limited queue provides backpressure
  • Prevents unbounded memory growth from fast producers

Code location: react_on_rails_pro/lib/react_on_rails_pro/concerns/stream.rb:50-63, 75-77

Walkthrough

Adds a producer–consumer streaming implementation using an Async::LimitedQueue to coordinate multiple producers with a single writer, adds client-disconnect logging and handling (IOError, Errno::EPIPE), and updates tests to stub closed? on mocked streams.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Concurrent streaming implementation react_on_rails_pro/lib/react_on_rails_pro/concerns/stream.rb	Adds private drain_streams_concurrently implementing a producer–consumer model with Async::LimitedQueue, backpressure, bounded memory, and ensures writer drains remaining items. Adds private log_client_disconnect(context, exception) and explicit rescue/termination on IOError / Errno::EPIPE; producers check response.stream.closed?.
Test updates react_on_rails_pro/spec/react_on_rails_pro/stream_spec.rb, react_on_rails_pro/spec/dummy/spec/helpers/react_on_rails_pro_helper_spec.rb	Stubs closed? on mocked response.stream/ActionController::Live::Buffer to return false in test setups so concurrent streaming flows exercise production code paths.

If client hops off, we close with grace,
Chunks drain gentle — no memory race,
A rabbit cheers the streaming race.

446-446: LGTM! Mock correctly supports the new closed? check.

The stub ensures the mocked stream responds to closed? with false, which is appropriate for the normal streaming flow tested in this block.

However, consider adding test cases that verify the client disconnect handling introduced in the streaming framework (when closed? returns true, or when IOError/Errno::EPIPE exceptions occur). This would provide coverage for the error-handling paths added in this PR.

Do you want me to generate example test cases for disconnect scenarios?

Code Review: PR #2026 - Client Disconnect Handling and Documentation

Overview

This PR adds client disconnect handling and comprehensive documentation to the concurrent streaming feature. Overall, this is a well-executed improvement that addresses a real resource leak issue and adds valuable documentation.

✅ Strengths

1. Addresses Real Resource Waste

The client disconnect handling prevents unnecessary processing when clients disconnect mid-stream, which is a legitimate production concern. The implementation correctly handles both IOError and Errno::EPIPE exceptions.

2. Excellent Documentation

The added comments are clear, concise, and highly valuable:

• Producer-consumer pattern explanation (lines 50-63)
• Ordering guarantees clearly stated
• Memory management strategy explained
• Inline comments mark consumer/producer tasks (lines 75-77)

This documentation will significantly help future maintainers understand the concurrent streaming architecture.

3. Minimal, Targeted Changes

The PR adds only what is necessary - no scope creep, no refactoring. This makes it easy to review and reduces risk.

🔍 Issues & Recommendations

1. Missing Test Coverage (HIGH PRIORITY)

The PR claims "No functional changes" but it does add functional error handling. The existing tests in stream_spec.rb do not cover:

• ❌ Client disconnection scenarios
• ❌ IOError / Errno::EPIPE handling
• ❌ Verification that tasks stop when response.stream.closed? is true
• ❌ Resource cleanup after disconnect

Recommendation: Add test cases for disconnect scenarios to verify the error handling works correctly and tasks stop gracefully.

2. Race Condition Risk (MEDIUM PRIORITY)

The check at line 98 has a potential TOCTOU (time-of-check-time-of-use) race. The stream could close between the check and the enqueue operation. However, the rescue IOError, Errno::EPIPE at line 106 handles this. Consider adding a comment explaining this safety mechanism.

3. Inconsistent Error Handling Return Values (LOW PRIORITY)

• Producer rescue block: returns via break (line 108)
• Writer rescue block: returns nil (line 124)

The asymmetry is minor but potentially confusing. Consider using consistent returns for clarity.

4. Missing Logging (LOW PRIORITY)

When clients disconnect, there is no visibility into this event. For production debugging, it would be helpful to add debug-level logging when disconnect exceptions are caught.

5. closed? Method Availability Not Verified (MEDIUM PRIORITY)

The code assumes response.stream.closed? exists and works correctly. This should be verified or documented with the Rails version requirement.

🔒 Security Considerations

✅ No security concerns identified. The exception handling prevents potential denial-of-service via resource exhaustion when many clients disconnect.

⚡ Performance Considerations

✅ Positive impact: The closed? check prevents expensive fiber operations when the client is gone.

📋 Code Quality

• ✅ Follows Ruby style conventions
• ✅ RuboCop compliant (per PR description)
• ✅ Clear variable names
• ✅ Appropriate use of guard clauses
• ⚠️ Missing test coverage for new functionality

🎯 Summary & Verdict

Recommendation: Approve with minor changes

This PR makes valuable improvements to resource management and documentation. The implementation is sound, though testing could be stronger.

Required before merge:

1. Add test coverage for client disconnect scenarios (HIGH)

Nice to have:

2. Add explanatory comment about TOCTOU race condition (MEDIUM)
3. Verify closed? method availability (MEDIUM)
4. Make error handling returns consistent (LOW)
5. Add debug logging for disconnect events (LOW)

Questions for author:

1. What Rails/ActionController version is required for response.stream.closed??
2. Have you tested this with actual client disconnects in development?
3. Should we emit metrics/logs when clients disconnect for monitoring?

---

Overall Assessment: This is solid work that improves the robustness of the streaming feature. With test coverage added, this will be production-ready.

Great job on the clear documentation! 📚

[claude]

Code Review

I've reviewed PR #2026 and have the following feedback:

✅ Strengths

1. Well-documented changes: The inline documentation clearly explains the producer-consumer pattern, ordering guarantees, and memory management strategy. This is excellent for maintainability.

2. Appropriate error handling: The addition of IOError and Errno::EPIPE exception handling for client disconnects is the correct approach for HTTP streaming scenarios.

3. Resource optimization: Adding the response.stream.closed? check before expensive fiber operations is a good performance optimization that prevents wasted CPU cycles.

4. Clean code structure: The changes maintain the existing code structure and don't introduce unnecessary complexity.

5. Proper error placement: Handling exceptions in both producer and writer tasks ensures robust cleanup from both sides of the pattern.

🔍 Potential Issues & Suggestions

1. Missing test coverage for disconnect scenarios (Priority: High)

The PR adds error handling for client disconnects, but I don't see any tests verifying this behavior. Consider adding tests like:

it "stops producing when client disconnects" do
  queues, controller, stream = setup_stream_test
  
  # Simulate client disconnect
  allow(stream).to receive(:closed?).and_return(true)
  
  run_stream(controller) do |_parent|
    queues[0].enqueue("Chunk1")
    queues[0].close
    sleep 0.1
  end
  
  # Verify production stopped gracefully
  expect(stream).not_to have_received(:write)
end

it "handles IOError in producer task" do
  queues, controller, stream = setup_stream_test
  
  run_stream(controller) do |_parent|
    allow(stream).to receive(:closed?).and_raise(IOError)
    
    queues[0].enqueue("Chunk1")
    queues[0].close
    sleep 0.1
  end
  
  # Should not raise - error should be caught
end

it "handles EPIPE in writer task" do
  queues, controller, stream = setup_stream_test
  
  allow(stream).to receive(:write).and_raise(Errno::EPIPE)
  
  run_stream(controller) do |_parent|
    queues[0].enqueue("Chunk1")
    queues[0].close
    sleep 0.1
  end
  
  # Should not raise - error should be caught
end

Location: react_on_rails_pro/spec/react_on_rails_pro/stream_spec.rb:374-489

2. Redundant error handling (Priority: Low)

The code checks both response.stream.closed? AND catches IOError/Errno::EPIPE. While defense in depth is good, consider:

• response.stream.closed? should prevent most writes to closed streams
• However, race conditions could still occur (stream closes between check and write)
• The exception handling acts as a safety net

This is actually fine as-is, but you might add a comment explaining why both are needed:

# Check if client disconnected before expensive operations
# Note: Stream could close between this check and fiber.resume,
# so we also catch IOError/EPIPE below as a safety net
break if response.stream.closed?

Location: stream.rb:97-98

3. Consider logging disconnect events (Priority: Medium)

For debugging and monitoring, it might be helpful to log when client disconnects occur:

rescue IOError, Errno::EPIPE => e
  # Client disconnected - stop producing
  Rails.logger.debug("Client disconnected during component streaming: #{e.class}")
  break

This would help diagnose issues in production where clients frequently disconnect.

Location: stream.rb:106-109

4. Error handling in writer could be more specific (Priority: Low)

The writer task catches exceptions but returns nil. Consider whether you want to:

• Log the error for debugging
• Re-raise certain unexpected errors
• Distinguish between expected (client disconnect) vs unexpected errors

Current code is safe but possibly too silent:

rescue IOError, Errno::EPIPE => e
  # Client disconnected - stop writing
  Rails.logger.debug("Client disconnected, stopping writer task: #{e.class}")
  nil
rescue StandardError => e
  # Unexpected error - log and re-raise
  Rails.logger.error("Unexpected error in writer task: #{e.class} - #{e.message}")
  raise

Location: stream.rb:122-125

5. Initial template write has no error handling (Priority: Low)

The response.stream.write(template_string) on line 39 doesn't have error handling. If a client disconnects before initial write, it could raise an exception. Consider:

begin
  response.stream.write(template_string)
rescue IOError, Errno::EPIPE
  # Client disconnected before streaming started
  return
end

Location: stream.rb:39

🎯 Best Practices

✅ Follows Ruby style conventions
✅ Maintains backward compatibility
✅ Documentation is comprehensive
✅ No security concerns identified
✅ Performance improvement (early exit on disconnect)

📊 Performance Considerations

The response.stream.closed? check is a good optimization. However, note that:

• This check happens on every loop iteration
• For high-frequency streaming, this could add minor overhead
• The benefit (avoiding fiber.resume on closed streams) likely outweighs the cost
• Consider measuring in production if you suspect issues

🔐 Security Considerations

No security concerns identified. The error handling properly isolates client-side issues (disconnects) from server-side state.

📝 Overall Assessment

This is a solid PR that improves error handling and documentation. The main gap is missing test coverage for the new error handling paths. I recommend adding tests for:

1. Client disconnect scenarios (stream.closed? returns true)
2. IOError handling in producer tasks
3. Errno::EPIPE handling in writer task

The code changes themselves are sound and follow Ruby best practices.

---

Recommendation: Approve with suggestion to add tests for the new error handling paths before merging.

[claude]

Code Review - PR #2026

Summary

This PR adds important client disconnect handling and comprehensive documentation to the concurrent streaming feature introduced in #2015. The changes are well-focused and improve both robustness and maintainability.

---

✅ Strengths

1. Excellent Resource Management

The addition of disconnect detection prevents wasted CPU cycles when clients drop connections:

• Checking response.stream.closed? before expensive fiber operations (line 97)
• Catching IOError and Errno::EPIPE exceptions (lines 106, 122)
• Graceful cleanup in both producer and writer tasks

2. Outstanding Documentation

The new comments provide critical understanding of the system:

• Producer-consumer pattern explanation (lines 50-63)
• Ordering guarantees - crucial for developers to understand (lines 55-57)
• Memory management strategy - explains backpressure mechanism (lines 59-63)

This documentation transforms complex concurrent code into maintainable code.

3. Minimal Surface Area

• Only 25 additions, 0 deletions
• No behavioral changes to happy path
• Purely defensive improvements

---

🔍 Code Quality Assessment

Exception Handling ✅

The exception handling is correct and follows best practices:

• IOError: Raised when stream operations fail (e.g., client disconnect)
• Errno::EPIPE: "Broken pipe" - writing to closed connection
• Proper placement in both producer loop and writer task

Performance Considerations ✅

The response.stream.closed? check (line 97) is optimally placed:

• Before fiber.resume (expensive operation)
• Inside the loop (checked on each iteration)
• Early exit prevents queueing chunks that will never be written

Thread Safety ✅

The implementation correctly handles concurrency:

• Exception in one producer doesn't affect others
• ensure block (line 69) guarantees queue closure
• Writer drains remaining chunks even after producer failure

---

💡 Suggestions for Consideration

1. Logging for Production Debugging (Optional)

Consider adding logging when clients disconnect:

rescue IOError, Errno::EPIPE => e
  Rails.logger.debug { "Client disconnected during streaming: #{e.class}" }
  break

Rationale: In production, knowing how often clients disconnect mid-stream helps with:

• Performance tuning of concurrent_component_streaming_buffer_size
• Understanding user behavior patterns
• Debugging potential issues

Counter-argument: Adds noise to logs if disconnects are frequent and expected. Could be behind a feature flag.

2. Test Coverage for Disconnect Scenarios (Nice-to-have)

The existing test suite in stream_spec.rb is comprehensive for the happy path. Consider adding a test for client disconnect:

it "stops producing when client disconnects" do
  queues, controller, stream = setup_stream_test
  
  allow(stream).to receive(:closed?).and_return(false, false, true)
  
  run_stream(controller) do |_parent|
    queues[0].enqueue("Chunk1")
    queues[0].enqueue("Chunk2")
    queues[0].enqueue("Chunk3")  # Should not be processed
    queues[0].close
    sleep 0.1
  end
  
  # Should have stopped before processing all chunks
  expect(stream).to have_received(:write).at_most(2).times
end

Note: Testing the exception path might be harder and potentially not worth the complexity.

3. Documentation Enhancement (Minor)

The comment on line 97 could be slightly more specific:

# Check if client disconnected before expensive fiber.resume operation

This makes it clearer why we check at this specific point.

---

🔒 Security Assessment

No security concerns identified.

• Exception handling doesn't leak sensitive information
• No changes to authentication/authorization
• Proper cleanup prevents resource exhaustion from abandoned connections

---

📊 Performance Impact

Positive impact:

• ✅ Prevents wasted CPU on disconnected clients
• ✅ Frees memory from queued chunks earlier
• ✅ Minimal overhead (closed? check is O(1))

Negligible cost:

• The closed? check adds ~1-2 nanoseconds per loop iteration
• Far cheaper than the fiber.resume it potentially avoids

---

✅ Best Practices Compliance

Per CLAUDE.md guidelines:

• ✅ RuboCop: PR description confirms all checks pass
• ✅ Code formatting: No formatting changes needed
• ✅ Documentation: Excellent inline documentation added
• ✅ Dependencies: Builds on merged Concurrently drain streaming fibers #2015
• ✅ Changelog: Not required (internal implementation detail, not user-facing API change)

---

🎯 Recommendation

APPROVE with optional enhancements

This PR is production-ready as-is. The suggested improvements are truly optional and wouldn't block merging:

1. Core changes: Excellent - proper error handling with clear documentation
2. Risk level: Very low - defensive code that only activates on errors
3. Testing: Existing tests cover the happy path; disconnect scenarios are edge cases
4. Documentation: Outstanding - transforms maintainability

The disconnect handling is particularly important for production environments where clients may:

• Navigate away mid-load
• Experience network issues
• Close tabs/browsers

Great work! This is exactly the kind of defensive programming that makes production systems robust. 🚀

📝 Minor Notes

• Line 100: The underscore prefix in _idx_from_queue correctly indicates unused variable
• The pattern matches Rails conventions for ActionController::Live
• Comments follow Ruby documentation standards

Summary

This PR adds client disconnect handling and documentation for concurrent component streaming. The changes are well-focused and improve resource management when clients disconnect mid-stream.

---

✅ Strengths

1. Excellent Documentation: The added inline comments clearly explain the producer-consumer pattern, ordering guarantees, and memory management strategy. This makes the code much more maintainable.

2. Proper Resource Management: The client disconnect handling prevents wasted CPU cycles when clients abort connections. This is a real-world optimization that matters at scale.

3. Non-Invasive Changes: Adding error handling without changing the core logic minimizes risk of regressions.

4. Appropriate Exception Handling: Catching IOError and Errno::EPIPE is the correct approach for detecting client disconnects in Ruby streaming contexts.

5. Test Coverage Update: The spec update (closed? mock) ensures existing tests work with the new disconnect check.

---

🔍 Code Quality Observations

Good Practices

• Early exit pattern (break if response.stream.closed?) is efficient
• Consistent error handling in both producer and consumer tasks
• Debug-level logging is appropriate (not polluting logs with expected disconnects)
• Conditional logging respects the logging_on_server configuration

---

🤔 Potential Concerns & Questions

1. Race Condition in closed? Check (Minor)

Location: stream.rb:98

# Check if client disconnected before expensive operations
break if response.stream.closed?

chunk = fiber.resume  # Could client disconnect between check and resume?

Analysis: There's a potential TOCTOU (time-of-check-time-of-use) race where the client could disconnect between the closed? check and fiber.resume. However, this is acceptable because:

• The rescue block below catches any IOError/Errno::EPIPE from the resume
• The check is an optimization to avoid unnecessary work, not a safety requirement
• The race window is extremely small

Recommendation: This is fine as-is, but consider adding a comment explaining why the race is acceptable.

2. Queue Close Timing (Informational)

Location: stream.rb:87

When a producer task encounters a disconnect exception, it breaks out of the loop. The ensure block then closes the queue.

Question: If producer task 1 hits IOError and breaks, while producer task 2 is still actively producing chunks, could there be any ordering issues?

Looking at the code flow:

• All producer tasks must complete (tasks.each(&:wait)) before queue.close
• So even if one producer exits early due to disconnect, we wait for all producers before closing
• This is correct behavior ✅

3. Consumer Exception Handling (Minor Enhancement Opportunity)

Location: stream.rb:123-125

The consumer rescues IOError and Errno::EPIPE, logs them, but doesn't re-raise or signal anything. This means:

• The consumer task completes normally (no exception propagated)
• The ensure block in drain_streams_concurrently still runs normally
• The queue still closes properly

Observation: This is correct behavior - when the client disconnects, we want graceful shutdown, not exception propagation. The current implementation handles this well. ✅

4. Testing Gap (Enhancement Opportunity)

Location: stream_spec.rb:391

The spec update adds closed? mock returning false, which is good for existing tests. However:

Missing test coverage:

• No test for the case where closed? returns true
• No test simulating IOError or Errno::EPIPE during streaming
• No test verifying logging behavior on disconnect

Recommendation: Consider adding integration tests for disconnect scenarios:

it "stops producing when client disconnects" do
  queues, controller, stream = setup_stream_test
  allow(stream).to receive(:closed?).and_return(false, false, true)
  
  # Test that producer exits gracefully
end

it "logs disconnect at debug level" do
  # Test log_client_disconnect behavior
end

This would ensure the disconnect handling actually works in practice.

---

🔒 Security Considerations

No security concerns identified. The changes:

• Don't introduce new attack surfaces
• Handle exceptions safely without exposing internals
• Use appropriate logging levels (debug, not error)
• Don't leak sensitive information in logs

---

⚡ Performance Considerations

Positive impact:

• ✅ Prevents wasted CPU cycles from processing components for disconnected clients
• ✅ Prevents memory accumulation in the queue from disconnected consumers
• ✅ The closed? check is O(1) and negligible overhead

No performance regressions identified.

---

📋 Recommendations

1. Add test coverage for disconnect scenarios (see section 4 above) - Priority: Medium

2. Consider adding a comment explaining the TOCTOU race condition is acceptable - Priority: Low

3. Verify RuboCop compliance (as mentioned in PR description) - Priority: High

   • Run: bundle exec rubocop react_on_rails_pro/lib/react_on_rails_pro/concerns/stream.rb

4. Consider documenting the disconnect behavior in user-facing docs if relevant - Priority: Low

---

✅ Final Assessment

Approval Status: ✅ Approved with minor suggestions

This is a solid PR that improves the production readiness of the streaming feature. The code quality is high, documentation is excellent, and the changes are well-thought-out. The missing test coverage is the only notable gap, but it doesn't block merging since:

• The logic is straightforward
• The existing tests still pass
• The error handling follows Ruby best practices
• This can be addressed in a follow-up PR

Excellent work! 🎉

391-391: Necessary stub for closed? checks, but consider testing disconnect scenarios.

The stub correctly returns false to support the new response.stream.closed? checks in the production code. This allows existing tests to continue working under normal (non-disconnect) conditions.

However, the PR adds significant disconnect handling logic, but no tests verify this behavior. Consider adding tests that:

• Mock closed? returning true to verify producers stop gracefully
• Simulate IOError/Errno::EPIPE exceptions to verify rescue blocks
• Verify logging occurs when disconnects are detected

Would you like me to generate example test cases for disconnect scenarios?

50-63: Excellent documentation of the concurrent streaming model.

The documentation clearly explains the producer-consumer pattern, ordering guarantees, and memory management strategy. This will help maintainers understand the concurrency model and backpressure mechanism.

---

123-127: Correct disconnect handling for the writer task.

The exception handling properly detects client disconnects during write operations. Exiting immediately without draining the remaining queue is the right choice—there's no point continuing to process chunks when the client is gone.

---

129-135: Clean logging implementation with appropriate level.

The debug level is suitable for client disconnects, which are expected events rather than errors. The context parameter helps distinguish between producer and consumer disconnects during troubleshooting.

---

96-109: Good disconnect detection—queue properly unblocks on close.

The combination of response.stream.closed? checks and exception handling provides effective disconnect detection. The closed? check at line 98 optimizes by avoiding expensive fiber operations when the client is gone.

The original concern about producers blocking on queue.enqueue when the queue is full during writer disconnect is mitigated by the library design: when Async::LimitedQueue is closed, any tasks blocked waiting to enqueue are unblocked. The ensure block calls queue.close, which will unblock any producer stuck on enqueue, so producers won't remain blocked indefinitely.

Code Review - PR #2026: Client Disconnect Handling and Documentation

Overall Assessment

This is a well-crafted PR that adds important production-ready error handling to the concurrent streaming feature. The changes are focused, well-documented, and follow best practices.

Strengths

1. Excellent Documentation - The producer-consumer pattern is clearly explained with ordering guarantees and memory management details

2. Proper Error Handling - Catches the correct exceptions (IOError, Errno::EPIPE) for client disconnects with graceful degradation

3. Performance Optimization - response.stream.closed? check prevents wasted CPU cycles before expensive fiber operations

4. Code Quality - Follows Ruby best practices and Rails conventions

Observations and Suggestions

1. Test Coverage Gap (Important)

The PR adds closed? mock to the test setup but doesn't include tests for the new error handling paths. Consider adding tests that verify:

• Client disconnect during production (closed? returns true)
• IOError/EPIPE exception handling in both producer and consumer
• Logging behavior when logging_on_server is enabled

2. Logging Enhancement

The log_client_disconnect method logs at debug level appropriately. Consider including which fiber/component was affected to make debugging easier when multiple components are streaming.

3. Edge Case - Queue Cleanup

When a producer exits early due to client disconnect, the ensure block handles queue cleanup correctly. Worth verifying that Async::LimitedQueue handles partial producer failures gracefully.

4. Documentation Enhancement

Consider adding exception handling details to the main docstring to document that client disconnects are handled gracefully.

Security and Performance

• No security concerns - error handling doesn't expose sensitive information
• Performance improvement - prevents wasted resources on disconnected clients
• Memory safety - no new memory leaks introduced
• Thread safety - Async library handles concurrency correctly

Recommendation

APPROVE with suggested test additions.

The code changes are solid and production-ready. The main gap is test coverage for the new error handling paths. Once tests are added for disconnect scenarios, this is ready to merge.

Great work on improving the production-readiness of the concurrent streaming feature!

@claude fix the failing rspec tests, seems that you just need to mock the closed? method

✅ Fixed failing RSpec tests

Tasks:

• Read CLAUDE.md for repository guidelines
• Identify which RSpec tests are failing
• Examine current test setup and mocking
• Add closed? method mocks to failing tests
• Commit and push changes

Summary:

Fixed 9 failing tests in react_on_rails_pro/spec/helpers/react_on_rails_pro_helper_spec.rb by adding the closed? method stub to mocked streams.

Root Cause: The production code at stream.rb:98 now checks response.stream.closed? for client disconnect detection (added in this PR), but the test mocks didn't support this method.

Solution: Added allow(mocked_stream).to receive(:closed?).and_return(false) to two test setup blocks:

1. Line 446: stream_view_containing_react_components test setup
2. Line 536: cached_stream_react_component test setup

This matches the approach already used in stream_spec.rb:391 and ensures all tests that use mocked streams support the new disconnect detection feature.

[justin808]

Closing this PR because it was based on code that has since been significantly refactored.

Why This PR Should Be Closed

Test Failures

This PR introduces 9 test failures, all caused by the same issue:

#<InstanceDouble(ActionController::Live::Buffer) (anonymous)> received unexpected message :closed? with (no args)

The code calls response.stream.closed? at line 98, but the test mocks don't stub this method.

Timeline Issue

• PR Concurrently drain streaming fibers #2015 (Concurrently drain streaming fibers) was merged to master 87 minutes before these commits
• That PR completely rewrote the streaming architecture with a producer-consumer pattern
• This branch was created before Concurrently drain streaming fibers #2015 was merged, so it's based on outdated code
• The changes here were applied on top of code that no longer exists in master

Path Forward

If client disconnect handling is still needed:

1. Create a fresh branch from current master
2. Apply the disconnect handling logic to the new concurrent streaming architecture
3. Update all test mocks to stub the closed? method
4. Ensure all tests pass locally before pushing

The concurrent streaming work from #2015 is working well on master. Any additional improvements should build on that foundation.
