Durable queue pause. q.Pause() stops every worker, in every process, taking jobs from the queue until q.Resume(). Flag lives in storage, so it outlives restarts. Worker.Pause unchanged (per worker, in memory). A worker takes a job only when worker running AND queue not paused.
q.Pause() -> storage.Pause() # flag stored; idempotent, first time kept
worker loop
source.Len() -> 0 while Paused() # scheduler hint, O(1)
storage.Dequeue -> refuses while paused # the real gate; a refusal is not an error
batch tail -> parks at next job # held: out of pending, Wait returns
q.Resume() -> storage.Resume()
OnPauseChange(false) -> poke credit source, notifyToPullNextJobs # every bound worker
CI fix: a Pause and a Resume both between Len and Dequeue made the refusal look like a failure (TestQueuePauseRace). Storage now counts its pause refusals (optional PauseRefusals() uint64 on a QueuePauser, in-memory and redisq implement it); an empty dequeue with an unmoved count is a real failure and still reports ErrFailedToDequeue. TestPauseGateNeverMisreports keeps the queue full so every empty dequeue is a refusal.
Perf:pending() scanned every parked batch under parkMx per dispatch: quadratic drain after any Worker Pause/Stop (1000 batches: 8.8 ms). Now it scans only while a parked batch may be held (parkHeld, set by park and the pause hook): 5.5 us -> 5 ns per call. Stamp.Hold is a pool.Holder taken at bind.
Fix: a held batch of storage that can pause without a hook stayed counted as pending, and Wait hung (TestPendingUnhookedHeld).
Unpaused hot paths measured: no significant change (Dequeue micro, Add, drain at 1/8/24 workers).
Merge Danger
Door: two-way in code; one-way once contract/v0.4.0 is tagged.
Blast Radius: queue handles, REST API
Code implementing IExternalBaseQueue (mocks) must add Pause, Resume, IsPaused.
GET /queues entries gain "paused": false; strict JSON comparers see a new field.
PATCH /queues/{id}/actions/pause has no auth, like the worker routes, but its effect is fleet-wide and durable: protect Handler.

Walkthrough
Queue handles and in-memory queues gain pause controls. Paused queues stop handing out jobs while continuing to accept additions. Sources and workers account for paused queues, and the HTTP API and storage contracts expose pause operations and status.
Adds optional pause interfaces, an in-memory pause state, and dequeue refusal for FIFO and priority queues. Tests check idempotent pause and resume, timestamps, refusal counts, and notifications.
Queue handles and pause statistics queue.go, distributed.go, distributed_priority.go, contract/contract.go, memory_inspector.go
Queue handles delegate pause operations to supported storage. Distributed handles expose the controls, and queue statistics report pause state and timestamp.
Sources report zero readiness while paused and classify pause-related empty dequeues as not ready. Resume hooks poke sources and notify workers; removing a source cancels its hook.
Paused batches and worker accounting worker_park.go, worker_pool.go, worker_test.go, queue_test.go
Workers park unstarted jobs from paused queues, exclude held jobs from pending counts, and select unheld batches for processing. Tests cover pause/resume, shared storage, batch tails, and concurrent operations.
HTTP actions and storage contracts mux.go, mux_test.go, spec/openapi.yaml, spec/redis-storage.md, CHANGELOG.md
Adds HTTP pause and resume actions with documented status codes and pause metadata. Updates the OpenAPI and Redis storage contracts and the changelog.

Durable queue pause is mostly in place. Before merging, fix the invalid OpenAPI YAML, which blocks documentation and client generation, and the lost wake-up when a queue resumes during binding. The remaining open items are narrow race and reporting edge cases that can follow shortly after.

Review comments at @contract/contract.go:
- Around line 45-46: Ensure queue inspectors that also implement QueuePauser
populate Paused and PausedAt in the QueueStats they return, including after a
successful pause. Update the relevant QueueInspector implementation, such as
inspectedQueue, so its reported pause state reflects the queue’s actual state
rather than default zero values.
Review comments at @internal/queues/pause.go:
- Around line 65-73: Update the callback dispatch in notify and its coordination
with cancel so no callback can begin after cancel returns, while callbacks can
still cancel their own subscriptions without deadlocking. Preserve the existing
hook-copying and Pause/Resume behavior; establish synchronization that safely
handles both concurrent cancellation and self-cancellation.
- Around line 64-73: Serialize callback notifications from Pause and Resume so
overlapping state changes cannot deliver stale callbacks after newer ones.
Update the notification flow around p.Paused and the hook snapshot to ensure the
last delivered notification reflects the queue’s final state, while avoiding
callback execution under p.mu.
Review comments at @internal/queues/priority.go:
- Around line 142-145: Synchronize Pause with item removal in the priority and
FIFO queue Dequeue paths: ensure the paused-state check and removal are
coordinated so that once Pause returns, no in-progress dequeue can hand out an
item. Preserve existing dequeue behavior when unpaused and use a synchronization
approach compatible with each queue’s existing locking.
Review comments at @memory_inspector.go:
- Around line 87-89: Update the queue-stats logic to use QueuePauser.Paused() as
the authority for Paused, rather than inferring it from PausedAt(). Only report
a PausedAt timestamp when it is valid for that authoritative paused state, so
queue-list and successful pause responses consistently reflect custom queues
that override Paused().
Review comments at @source.go:
- Around line 54-58: Update emptyErr and the dequeue flow that calls it so the
refusal reason is captured when dequeue is refused and carried forward, rather
than inferred from the queue’s later state via queuePaused. Preserve
ErrFailedToDequeue for genuine storage failures and report errNoReadySource when
the dequeue was refused because the queue was paused.
- Around line 442-443: Update the source-binding flow using w.addSource and
w.onResume so each source is published before the worker is notified; ensure
this ordering applies to ordinary and credit sources while preserving the
existing notification behavior.
Review comments at @spec/openapi.yaml:
- Line 202: Quote the description in the 501 response so the colon in the
`varmq: storage` text is parsed as part of the string and the OpenAPI document
remains valid YAML.
Review comments at @spec/redis-storage.md:
- Around line 267-269: Update the consumer requirements so periodic `EXISTS
<base>:paused` reconciliation is mandatory and, within one second, updates the
cached pause state and wakes the consumer when it changes. Retain the required
check before the first pop and the control subscription behavior.

Wake the worker after publishing every source.
If a queue resumes during binding, the worker can consume the resume signal before addSource publishes the source. Its queued jobs can then remain unprocessed until another wake. Notify the worker after publishing ordinary sources as well as credit sources.

Update the source-binding flow using w.addSource and w.onResume so each source
is published before the worker is notified; ensure this ordering applies to
ordinary and credit sources while preserving the existing notification behavior.

A consumer SHOULD subscribe to `<base>:control` and update its own view of the pause on each message. Pub/sub can lose a message, so a consumer SHOULD also read `EXISTS <base>:paused` at least once a second, and before its first pop.
The key decides; messages are hints. A consumer MUST ignore a `<base>:control` message it does not know, and MUST NOT use the `<ms>` of a `paused:` message for anything but display. A pop checks the key itself (section 6.2), so a lost or forged message costs at most one empty pop or one second of waiting.

Require bounded pause-state reconciliation.
If a consumer misses resumed and relies only on the control subscription, its paused cache can stop pops indefinitely. The pop-time key check cannot repair that cache. Require reconciliation that updates the cache and wakes the consumer within the stated bound.

reconciliation is mandatory and, within one second, updates the cached pause

q.Pause() stops every worker in every process taking jobs from the
queue until q.Resume(). Flag lives in storage, so it outlives a
restart; Worker.Pause stays per worker, in memory. A worker takes a job
only when neither is paused.
- New optional QueuePauser (Pause, Resume, Paused) and PauseNotifier
(OnPauseChange); ErrPauseUnsupported otherwise. Storage's own dequeue
is the gate; source Len and the credit hint read Paused as a hint.
- In-memory Queue/PriorityQueue implement both. Pause state sits in
Queue's padding and in heapQueue, so size classes stay (144, 64).
- Resume wakes every bound worker through a weakly held hook; unbind
cancels it.
- Batch tail: the rest of a batch taken before the Pause parks and waits
for the Resume, outside the worker's pending, so Wait returns.
- Queue handles (and distributed handles) gain Pause, Resume, IsPaused.
- REST: PATCH /queues/{id}/actions/{pause|resume}; QueueStats gains
paused, paused_at (openapi 1.2.0, contract v0.4.0).
- Spec redis-storage.md 1.3.0: <base>:paused, <base>:control, pop rule,
Pause/Resume scripts.
BREAKING CHANGE: IExternalBaseQueue gains Pause, Resume, IsPaused;
code implementing queue handle interfaces itself must add them.
- A dequeue refused by a pause (Pause between Len and Dequeue, or a
stale cache) is "nothing to do", not ErrFailedToDequeue: no call to
the error handler.
- QueuePauser contract: storage turns Paused false itself after a
Resume from any process; the worker stops asking while it is true.
- pending reads unheld parked jobs under one lock: never negative.
- Pause hooks of collected workers cancel themselves on the next
Pause/Resume; hooks get the state as of the call, so the last call
is the final state under racing Pause/Resume.
- Docs: Handler godoc and openapi warn the queue route pauses every
consumer process and outlives restarts; spec: control messages are
hints, unknown ones ignored, non-integer :paused has no paused_at;
held batch tail counts as processing.
Pause and Resume can both land between Len and Dequeue (CI caught it
in TestQueuePauseRace): the refusal is for a pause that already ended,
so emptyErr can't check Paused. Any empty dequeue of a QueuePauser is
"nothing to do".
Tests for what codecov flagged: Stamp.Held, unpark skipping held
batches, distributed handles' Pause/Resume/IsPaused, the credit path
(no pop while paused, Resume pokes), and the hook of a collected
worker cancelling itself.
pending runs per dispatch and per finished batch; scanning every parked
batch under parkMx made draining parked jobs quadratic after any
Worker Pause or Stop (1000 batches: 5.5 us per call, 8.8 ms per drain).
parkHeld is set by park (a held batch, or a pausable queue with no
hook) and by a queue's pause hook; unheld clears it before scanning.
pending with 1000 parked batches: 5.5 us -> 5 ns.
Stamp.Hold is a pool.Holder taken at bind, read through the sole
queueSource: no interface conversion per batch, and the pauser()
methods on other sources and managers are gone.
…iles
- A dequeue that comes back empty is "nothing to do" only for a pause:
paused now, or the storage's PauseEpoch moved since before the
dequeue (a Pause and Resume both between Len and Dequeue). In-memory
queues bump it before each Pause and Resume changes the state. Any
other empty dequeue reports ErrFailedToDequeue again, for pausable
storage too (review: e14b2fe silenced real dequeue failures).
- unheld keeps parkHeld while a parked batch's queue can pause with no
hook: its later pause has nothing else to set it, and Wait hung.
- Pause tests move into queue_test, source_test, worker_test, mux_test
and internal/queues/queue_test; no pause_test files.
Epoch bumps in Pause and Resume left a window: both bumps before the
dequeue read the count, the two state writes around the Dequeue, and
the refusal looked like a failure (4 in 1000 TestQueuePauseRace runs).
Now each Dequeue refused for a pause counts itself (PauseRefusals), so
an empty dequeue with an unmoved count was not refused. Optional for
any QueuePauser, documented there; without it a refusal racing a
Resume may reach the error handler. TestPauseGateNeverMisreports keeps
the queue full so every empty dequeue is a refusal.
- bind wakes the loop for every source: a Resume between onResume and
addSource woke it before the source was there, and pre-filled storage
got no wake.
- In-memory hooks: one notify at a time, so calls arrive in order; a
hook cancelled before its turn is skipped.
- memQueue reports Paused from the storage's Paused, PausedAt only
while paused.
- openapi: quote the 501 description (': ' broke the YAML scalar).
- redis-storage.md 6.8: re-reading :paused once a second is a MUST for a
consumer that caches the pause, and a change wakes it.
- contract: a pausable QueueInspector reports Paused and PausedAt.
- Resume test asserts each worker's hook heard it.
