+# ADR-001: Resilient Redis Connection with Idempotent Command Retry
+
+**Date:** 2026-02-25
+**Status:** Accepted
+**Authors:** Sebastian Marcet
+
+## Context
+
+Production runs on a managed Valkey (Redis-compatible) instance on DigitalOcean over TLS. Transient connection failures — network hiccups, TLS renegotiation, server maintenance — cause `Predis\Connection\ConnectionException` errors that propagate up through the application and fail business-critical operations.
+
+The immediate trigger was audit log job dispatch (`EmitAuditLogJob`) failing during Doctrine's `onFlush` event inside `MemberService::synchronizeGroups`. The Redis write failure bubbled up through the Doctrine `UnitOfWork::commit()` and caused the entire member synchronization transaction to fail. Audit logging is non-critical and should never break business operations.
+
+Beyond audit logging, any Redis operation (cache reads/writes, session access, rate limiting) is vulnerable to the same transient failures.
+
+## Decision
+
+### 1. Resilient Redis Connection Layer
+
+Introduce a custom Redis driver (`predis_resilient`) that automatically retries **idempotent** commands on `ConnectionException`, with disconnect/reconnect between attempts and exponential backoff.
+
+**Architecture:**
+
+- `ResilientPredisConnection` extends Laravel's `PredisConnection`, overrides `command()` to catch `ConnectionException` and retry only idempotent commands
+- `ResilientPredisConnector` extends `PredisConnector`, calls `parent::connect()` to reuse all config/TLS/option handling, then wraps the `Predis\Client` in `ResilientPredisConnection`
+- `RedisResilienceServiceProvider` registers the driver via `RedisManager::extend('predis_resilient', ...)`
+- Activated by setting `REDIS_CLIENT=predis_resilient` in `.env` — zero behavior change without this flag
+
+**Retry behavior:**
+
+| Command type | On ConnectionException | Rationale |
+|---|---|---|
+| Idempotent (GET, SET, DEL, HSET, EXPIRE, ...) | Disconnect, reconnect, retry up to N times with exponential backoff | Executing twice produces the same result |
+| Non-idempotent (INCR, LPUSH, RPUSH, EVAL, ...) | Rethrow immediately | Command may have executed before the read-side failed; retrying could duplicate data |
+
+**Configuration** (per-connection in `config/database.php`):
+
+| Parameter | Env var | Default | Description |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `retry_limit` | `REDIS_RETRY_LIMIT` | 2 | Max retry attempts (0 disables retries) |
+| `retry_delay` | `REDIS_RETRY_DELAY` | 50 | Base delay in ms (doubles each attempt: 50, 100, 200) |
+
+### 2. Job Dispatch Fallback for Audit Logging
+
+Separately, `AuditLogOtlpStrategy` was updated to dispatch `EmitAuditLogJob` via `JobDispatcher::withSyncFallback()` instead of `EmitAuditLogJob::dispatch()`. This catches Redis failures at the job dispatch level and runs the audit log emission synchronously as a fallback — preventing audit logging from ever failing the parent business transaction.
+
+## Consequences
+
+### Positive
+
+- Transient Redis failures on idempotent commands (cache GET/SET, session reads, key expiry) are automatically recovered without application-level error handling
+- Non-idempotent commands (queue pushes, counters, list operations) are never retried, preventing data duplication
+- Opt-in activation via env var — no risk to existing deployments
+- Per-connection retry configuration allows tuning (e.g., more retries for cache, fewer for workers)
+- Audit log failures can no longer crash business transactions
+
+### Negative
+
+- Retry adds latency on failure (up to ~350ms with defaults: 50 + 100 + 200ms backoff)
+- `usleep()` in the retry loop blocks the PHP process during backoff — acceptable for 2-3 retries but would need async handling at higher retry counts
+- The idempotent command list is manually maintained and must be updated if new Redis commands are used
+
+### Neutral
+
+- Queue push operations (`EVAL` with Lua scripts) are NOT retried by the resilient connection — they remain protected by `JobDispatcher::withSyncFallback` / `withDbFallback` at the application layer
+- The `predis_resilient` driver shares the same Predis `Client` configuration as `predis` — no TLS, auth, or timeout differences
+
+## Alternatives Considered
+
+1. **Predis built-in retry** — Predis does not offer connection retry on command failure (only on initial connect via `aggregate` connections). Rejected.
+
+2. **Retry all commands** — Would risk duplicating non-idempotent operations (double LPUSH, double INCR) when the failure occurs after the command was sent but before the response was read. Rejected.
+
+3. **Catch-and-ignore at every call site** — Would require wrapping every Redis call in try/catch throughout the codebase. Not maintainable. Rejected.
+
+4. **Switch to phpredis extension** — phpredis has built-in retry support, but would require changing the entire Redis integration layer and testing all connection configurations. Disproportionate effort for the problem at hand. Not pursued.
