feat: one binder per queue kind, remote job outcome, job cancel - #180
Stacked on #179 (workflows). One binder per queue kind for every storage, and job handles that learn a durable job's outcome from whichever process runs it.
worker binders (Worker, ErrWorker, ResultWorker)
BindQueue / BindPriorityQueue in-memory, unchanged
WithQueue(q) / WithPriorityQueue(pq)
- in-memory or custom only+ any storage:+ q is IAcknowledgeable -> durable: JSON jobs, storage acks+ q is ISubscribable -> worker woken on enqueue, else polled+ Add returns remote job handle- WithPersistentQueue / WithDistributedQueue (+Priority)+ Deprecated (IWorkerBinder); removed from Err/Result binders (unreleased, #179)+producers, no worker, mirror the workers (+Priority versions):+ NewQueue[T] -> ProducerQueue[T, EnqueuedJob] (Wait, WaitContext)+ NewErrQueue[T] -> ProducerQueue[T, EnqueuedErrJob] (+ Err)+ NewResultQueue[T,R]-> ProducerQueue[T, EnqueuedResultJob[R]] (+ Result)+EnqueuedJob gains WaitContext(ctx) every job handle, in-memory too-NewDistributedQueue[T] / NewDistributedPriorityQueue[T] Deprecated+wait by job ID, any process, per worker kind:+ OpenJob(s, id) -> EnqueuedJob OpenErrJob -> EnqueuedErrJob OpenResultJob[R] -> EnqueuedResultJob[R]
Remote outcome, on storage implementing new optional contract.OutcomeWatcher (redisq PR):
producer Add -> job ID (random if none), watch registered
(generated ID: before push; given ID: after push)
consumer runs job -> Acknowledge / Reject(err text)
result worker: AcknowledgeResult(json(R)) (<=64 KiB, refused -> plain Acknowledge)
storage -> PUBLISH <base>:done:<id> {id,state,error,result} (spec 1.6.0 §6.13)
producer handle -> Wait() / WaitContext(ctx) / Err() (*RemoteError) / Result(), per worker kind
no OutcomeWatcher -> ErrDetached
Purge on handle -> live handles detach
Job cancel (spec 1.7.0 §6.14):
job.Cancel() every job handle (EnqueuedJob), in-memory or shared
waiting -> never runs, outcome cancelled (ErrJobCancelled)
running -> j.Context() cancelled; ends cancelled if the worker then errors/panics,
as usual if it ignores the context
ended -> ErrJobAlreadyClosed; storage without JobCanceller -> ErrCancelUnsupported
shared storage: handle Cancel -> JobCanceller.CancelJob(id) -> mark + control msg
consumers (CancelNotifier) find the running job by (storage, id) -> Cancel
cancelled run -> CancelAcknowledgeable (outcome cancelled, never retried)
Job[T].Context(): made on first call, kept in a side map -> jobs that never call it
allocate nothing more and keep their size class
Usage:
w:=varmq.NewResultWorker(func(j varmq.Job[int]) (string, error) { ... })
q:=w.WithQueue(rq.NewQueue("thumbs")) // same call as in-memoryjob, _:=q.Add(64)
s, err:=job.Result() // across processesp:= varmq.NewResultQueue[int, string](rq.NewQueue("thumbs")) // producer processj, _:=p.Add(64)
s, err=j.Result() // NewQueue / NewErrQueue for Worker / ErrWorker jobso:=varmq.OpenResultJob[string](rq.NewQueue("thumbs"), j.ID()) // any process, by IDerr=o.WaitContext(ctx)
Files: durable_queue.go (generic durable handles, one type per order serves all three worker kinds via H/G type params), remote_job.go (remote job + group handles, OpenJob/OpenErrJob/OpenResultJob, RemoteError, ErrDetached), job.go (WaitContext on in-memory jobs, keepResult, AcknowledgeResult + fallback), worker_binder.go (detection, deprecations), contract/outcome.go (JobOutcome, OutcomeWatcher, ResultAcknowledgeable), spec/redis-storage.md 1.6.0.
Evidence
go test -race -count=1 ./... (7 packages) and contract tests pass. New durable_queue_test.go: worker / err worker / result worker on shared storage, priority group with range-until-close, result over 64 KiB, storage without AcknowledgeResult, refused result still completes, producer + OpenResultJob / OpenErrJob / OpenJob (typed result after the end, unknown job waits until ctx), in-memory WaitContext, result producers, detached storage, WaitContext timeout + Close, Purge detaches, given ID ignores old run's outcome. Run 5x under -race.
Cancel: job_cancel_test.go (waiting, running with ctx, running ignoring ctx, outside-run Context, remote running/waiting via a JobCanceller store, waiting durable job finishes cancelled in storage, cancel scoped to its storage, unsupported), 5x under -race.
Benchmarks (BenchmarkAdd, BenchmarkAddAll, all 12 cases, benchstat n=6..8): allocs/op and B/op identical to the pre-cancel base. Timing interleaved base/new on one machine: no significant change (geomean -5%, every case p>0.05 except one at -31%, noise ±17-64%).
End-to-end against real Redis 7 with the redisq PR (-race): producer result r-7, remote error negative, bound Result(), OpenResultJob on a fresh queue object after end, NewErrQueue err, AddAll 3 results / 1 failed, priority err worker, deprecated alias compiles, cancel of a running job from another handle, cancel of a waiting job (never runs).
Cancel reviews: correctness (duplicate-ID map entry, lost-cancel window, waiting durable job not acked: fixed) and security (cancel crossing queues with the same ID, cancel set growing forever: fixed).
Reviews: correctness review (group channels never closed, purged handle waits forever: fixed) and security audit (poison result loop via cjson nesting limit, stale/foreign result on reused given ID: fixed with ack fallback + watch-after-push + spec re-add rule).
CodeRabbit + ponytail round: Close detaches live handles like Purge; RWMutex orders Add against Purge/Close; decodeOutcome decode order; ErrNoResult kept in result groups; float64 test catches precision loss. Cuts: crypto/rand.Text() for generated IDs, redundant guard, *new(H). feat: workflows, unified queue binding, remote job outcome, job cancel #179 fixes merged in.
CodeRabbit round 2 (cancel) + reviews: reflect.ValueOf(..).Comparable() (map in interface field panicked the worker); deprecated binders watch cancels; cancel reaches every live run of an ID; liveRuns counted before the store; handle that saw its outcome returns ErrJobAlreadyClosed; ids generated for JobCanceller storage; result encode failure or MarshalJSON panic fails the run (Errs, metrics). Spec 6.14: wf pop exception only for a valid tag on storage with workflows (security: crafted wf must not escape cancel); stale cancel:<id> dropped via mark check. Tests folded into job_test.go / queue_test.go. Local patch coverage ~99%.
Merge Danger
Door: two-way until contract/v0.6.0 and spec 1.6.0 release; one-way after (redisq implements them).
Blast Radius: varmq API, every storage adapter
WithQueue/WithPriorityQueue route any IAcknowledgeable storage durable: custom in-memory storage that also implements Acknowledge changes path.
On shared storage via WithQueue, only WithJobId / Item.ID dedupe (as in memory), not WithJobIdGenerator ids.
Remote Close() stops waiting, does not cancel the job. A failed job's error is text only (errors.Is/As on worker error types does not match).
Known limits: retention 0 + outcome message lost on reconnect leaves a waiter waiting (use WaitContext); every durable Add holds a watch until the job ends; the storage's cancel hook holds its worker until the storage closes; Purge/Close detach every live handle of that queue object, running jobs too.
New API in varmq (13): funcs NewQueue, NewPriorityQueue, NewErrQueue, NewErrPriorityQueue, NewResultQueue, NewResultPriorityQueue, OpenJob, OpenErrJob, OpenResultJob; generic ProducerQueue[T, J], ProducerPriorityQueue[T, J]; RemoteError, ErrDetached. Plus WaitContext on EnqueuedJob (breaks only own implementations/mocks). Cancel: Cancel() on EnqueuedJob, Context() on Job[T], ErrJobCancelled, ErrCancelUnsupported. Contract: 3 + JobCanceller, CancelNotifier, CancelAcknowledgeable, ErrJobEnded. Deprecated: 6.
Not in this PR: sqliteq outcome support (handles report ErrDetached), Def/Bind (ADR-0006), vartop.
WithQueue / WithPriorityQueue take any storage. IAcknowledgeable =
durable (JSON jobs, storage acks), ISubscribable = woken on enqueue,
else polled. Same handle types as in-memory (Queue, ErrQueue,
ResultQueue + priority); Add returns a remote job.
Remote job: storage with OutcomeWatcher (contract) reports a job's
end from any process -> Wait, Err (*RemoteError, text only), Result
(R as JSON via ResultAcknowledgeable, max 64 KiB else ErrNoResult),
AddAll groups. RemoteJob adds WaitContext, Outcome. No watcher ->
ErrDetached. Durable job without id gets a random one.
Producers: NewQueue[T] / NewPriorityQueue[T] on shared storage.
WaitJob(ctx, storage, id), DecodeResult[R].
Deprecated: IWorkerBinder With{Persistent,Distributed}{,Priority}Queue,
NewDistributed{,Priority}Queue. Removed (unreleased, #179): the 4
durable binders on IErrWorkerBinder / IResultWorkerBinder.
Spec redis-storage 1.6.0: §6.13 job outcome (<base>:done:<id>,
Acknowledge with result, record field result).
- group: channels close once every job ended (range ends, as in
memory); Drain discards until close.
- Purge on a shared-storage handle detaches its live job handles
(ErrDetached): a purged job never ends, its Wait would block.
- AcknowledgeResult refused (JSON cjson can't take, e.g. >1000
nesting): plain Acknowledge, job completes with ErrNoResult instead
of redelivery forever.
- given job ID: watch after the push. Spec 6.13: a pushing EnqueueOnce
deletes the id's old record, so a re-added id never reports the
earlier run's outcome or result.
This PR adds durable shared-storage queue handles with remote outcomes and result retrieval, context-aware job waiting and cooperative cancellation, and unified worker binding APIs for acknowledgeable storage. It also updates result-finalization handling, storage specifications, tests, and documentation.
Changes
Shared Queue Outcomes and Cancellation
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Job contracts and result acknowledgement contract/*, interface.go, job.go, group_job.go, main.go, spec/redis-storage.md
Adds outcome and cancellation contracts, context-aware job methods, and JSON result acknowledgement. Result-finalization failures now enter the worker failure path.
Adds durable FIFO and priority queues, producer constructors, and remote handles that expose waits, errors, and results. Queue operations detach live handles on purge or close.
Adds cancellation for waiting and running jobs, per-run contexts, and worker tracking for matching shared-storage cancellation notifications.
Unified worker binding and API migration worker_binder.go, distributed.go, distributed_priority.go, worker_binder_test.go, workflow_test.go, main.go, memory_inspector_test.go, CHANGELOG.md, README.md
Acknowledgeable queues now use durable wrappers through WithQueue and WithPriorityQueue. Error and result binders remove dedicated persistent and distributed binding methods, and distributed constructors and binder methods are marked deprecated.

Explanation
The title "feat: one binder per queue kind, remote job outcome, job cancel" names three of the main changes in the changeset. The changeset unifies WithQueue/WithPriorityQueue binding for IAcknowledgeable storage (the worker binders), adds remote job outcome handles (OpenJob, OpenErrJob, OpenResultJob, OutcomeWatcher, RemoteError, ErrDetached), and adds job cancellation (Cancel, Context, JobCanceller, CancelNotifier, CancelAcknowledgeable). It also adds producer-only queue constructors (NewQueue and related), which the title does not mention. The title is concise, uses a conventional commit prefix, and is specific enough for a teammate scanning history to understand the primary change.
Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description is thorough and substantive. It has a Summary with a diff-style overview, usage examples, a Files list, an Evidence section with test and benchmark results, and a Merge Danger section covering blast radius and known limits. It does not follow the repository template. The template requires a Description, a Type of Change checklist (Bug fix, New feature, Breaking change, Refactoring), a Checklist (Self-reviewed, Tests added/updated, Documentation updated), and a Related Issues section with a 'Fixes #' line. The description has none of these headings. It states that the work is stacked on #179 but has no 'Fixes #' or related issue reference. The type of change is implied by the content, which describes new features and deprecations, but the author never ticks a type. The checklist items are implied by the Evidence section, though the description does not confirm documentation updates in those terms. Because the content is complete and only the template structure is missing, the check passes on substance. The template gaps are non-critical.

Producer for ResultWorker jobs: Add's job has Result() (RemoteResultJob),
same call as a bound ResultQueue's job, no Outcome + DecodeResult step.
NewQueue's job already has Wait/Err, so no NewErrQueue.
OpenJob[R](storage, id) gives the same handle Add returns for a job ID
from any process: WaitContext, Err, Result. Raw JobOutcome no longer
reaches user code; NewResultQueue covers typed results. All unreleased.
Wait by job ID mirrors the producers: OpenJob -> EnqueuedJob,
OpenErrJob -> EnqueuedErrJob, OpenResultJob[R] -> EnqueuedResultJob[R].
No dummy [any] type param, Err without Result.

Use a precision-sensitive result in this test.
Both 1<<53 and 1<<54 are exactly representable as float64. A float64 round-trip can pass this assertion while corrupting nearby integers. Use an input that makes the worker return a non-representable integer.

handle-level `Wait`, `Err`, and `Result` calls and group waits can complete
after shutdown; preserve the existing close and watch-stop behavior.

- EnqueuedJob.Cancel(): job not started never runs (ErrJobCancelled);
running job gets its Context cancelled, ends cancelled if it then
errors or panics, as usual if it finishes anyway.
- Job[T].Context(): made on first call, kept in a side map (runs), so
jobs that never call it allocate nothing more and stay in their size
class (BenchmarkAdd allocs/op, B/op unchanged).
- Shared storage: remote handle Cancel -> JobCanceller.CancelJob;
workers bound to a CancelNotifier track running jobs by ID and cancel
on request; cancelled run -> CancelAcknowledgeable (outcome
cancelled, never retried). No canceller: ErrCancelUnsupported.
- Contract: JobCanceller, CancelNotifier, CancelAcknowledgeable,
ErrJobEnded. Spec redis-storage 1.7.0 §6.14.
- running map: CompareAndDelete, so a job with a reused or redelivered
ID never drops another's entry.
- track before startProcessing: a cancel request landing in between
finds the job queued and closes it.
- Cancel of a job not started on shared storage or a workflow store
finishes it cancelled there (AcknowledgeCancelled / workflow end),
so the item is not redelivered and the workflow moves on.
- doc: a Cancel after the job's function returned leaves its outcome.
- cancel request scoped to its storage: running map keyed by (storage,
job ID), only jobs from shared storage tracked; a cancel on queue A
never stops queue B's or an in-memory job with the same ID.
- spec 6.14: <base>:cancelled is a ZSET, score = expiry per member
(24 h), pruned on cancel and in the sweep; the key-wide PEXPIRE
refreshed on every add let random IDs grow it forever. Apps must
authorize and rate-limit untrusted cancel-by-ID callers.
A worker with no cancel watch and no live job contexts pays two atomic
loads per job, no calls. AddAll interleaved vs pre-cancel base: no
significant change (geomean -5%, allocs and B/op identical).

prior cancellation mark and outcome atomically before the re-added job can be

Review comments at @job_cancel.go:
- Line 280: Update watchCancels so non-comparable storage values received
through WithQueue still register their notification handler and remote Cancel
reaches the running job’s Context. Track storage using a comparable identity
that preserves correct matching for the same queue, without rejecting valid
queue implementations.
- Around line 63-67: Synchronize `runs` publication and run cleanup with the
`liveRuns` update so cleanup cannot decrement the counter before a newly
published run is counted, allowing another finished run to be skipped and
retained. Use a shared synchronization mechanism across both this `LoadOrStore`
path and the corresponding cleanup path, preserving the existing duplicate-run
behavior.
- Around line 128-133: Update the cancellation path after `j.transition(closed,
waitingOnly)` so a failed `j.finishCancelled()` acknowledgement is retried
rather than leaving the closed job skipped without recording cancellation.
Preserve the existing behavior when the acknowledgement succeeds, and use the
established retry mechanism for this acknowledgement.
- Line 263: Update the delivery tracking around w.running.Store(k, j) so
redeliveries for the same key do not replace references to earlier live
deliveries. Retain every live delivery for the key and ensure a cancel request
reaches all of them; remove deliveries from tracking when they are no longer
live.
- Line 259: Check the storage values’ runtime comparability in the job-tracking
path before tracking a job or registering its cancellation callback; type
comparability alone does not cover interfaces holding maps or slices. Update the
checks for q and s to validate their values, while preserving the existing nil,
ID, and storage-type checks.
- Line 284: Manage the lifetime of the cancellation watch registered through
cn.OnCancel so discarding a worker releases its callback and no longer retains
the worker. Preserve cancellation delivery for running jobs and ensure restarted
workers can register an active watch again, using the existing watch lifecycle
mechanism rather than assuming an unsupported unsubscribe API.
- Line 228: Update the cancellation flow in gj.cancel so queued group members
report ErrJobCancelled through the member’s response before the group counter is
released, ensuring Errs() and Results() record the cancellation.
Review comments at @job.go:
- Around line 573-577: Update the cancellation handling around
CancelAcknowledgeable so a cancelled running job without that interface does not
produce a RemoteError where ErrJobCancelled is expected; establish a fallback
that preserves the cancellation outcome, or document the interface requirement
and the fallback behavior for storage that lacks it.
Review comments at @README.md:
- Around line 160-164: Update the README example to use the worker created by
varmq.NewErrWorker: initialize q with w.WithQueue(rq.NewQueue("imgs")) before
adding the job, ensuring the submitted job is processed by the resize worker.
- Around line 164-166: Update the README example to obtain the submitted job’s
ID from the result of Add using job.ID(), then pass that ID to OpenErrJob before
calling Cancel; do not use an unrelated or undefined ID.
- Line 167: Update the cancellation outcome example around job.Err() to state
that checking for varmq.ErrJobCancelled requires an adapter that implements
OutcomeWatcher; document that a nonempty-ID job may instead return ErrDetached
when the adapter lacks that capability, and show ErrDetached as a separate
outcome.
- Line 157: Update the README cancellation guidance around Job.Cancel to state
that shared storage must implement JobCanceller for queued-job cancellation;
otherwise cancellation returns ErrCancelUnsupported and the job may still run.
Show callers checking and handling the error returned by Job.Cancel, while
preserving the existing explanation of cancellation for running jobs.
Review comments at @remote_job.go:
- Line 106: Update the cancellation flow before c.CancelJob(j.id) to reject
cancellation when the handle has already observed a completed outcome,
preventing a reused ID from targeting a new job. Preserve cancellation by ID for
detached handles that have not observed an outcome.
Review comments at @spec/redis-storage.md:
- Line 396: The Pop cancellation-drop path does not transition a dropped
workflow task, leaving its workflow pending. Specify and apply the established
workflow cancellation transition atomically with dropping the envelope,
including any dependent-task or compensation pushes required by existing
workflow rules; preserve the existing cancellation record, retention, and

result with items remaining triggers another pop immediately instead of waiting
for a wake-up. Preserve the 1,000-item per-script cap and retry only while the
result indicates items remain.
- Line 395: Update the CancelJob contract and the watchCancels behavior so
cancellation notifications are bound to a specific job execution, not only its
reusable job ID. Establish how the execution identity is carried through
cancellation requests and notifications, and require the watcher to ignore
notifications for a different execution while preserving current cancellation
behavior for a matching execution.

cancellation arrived during this window, rather than discarding the request.

Add a durable priority-order test.
This test checks outcomes but not execution order, so it would pass if AddAll forwarded every priority as zero. Use AddAll to enqueue jobs in a different order from their priorities before letting a single worker run. Then assert their execution order.

Review comments at @CHANGELOG.md:
- Line 36: Update the OutcomeWatcher contract in the Remote job outcome
changelog entry to require storage to atomically invalidate any prior outcome
when enqueueing a job with a reused ID, so the new handle cannot observe the
previous job’s result or error.
- Line 36: Update decodeOutcome so decoding results into any or nested
map[string]any does not silently round large numbers; preserve their exact
numeric value, including for integers above float64’s exact range, while
retaining typed decoding for concrete R types.
- Line 15: Update the WithJobIdGenerator contract to require globally unique
generated IDs for outcome-tracked storage, including acknowledgeable storage
used with WithQueue or WithPriorityQueue, even when that storage does not
deduplicate. Preserve the existing distinction between generated IDs and
explicit IDs used for deduplication.
- Line 15: Update the shared-storage detection used by WithQueue and
WithPriorityQueue so implementing IAcknowledgeable alone does not force custom
in-memory storage onto the JSON serialization path; preserve its existing
in-memory job handling. Keep JSON serialization for durable storage and document
that durable jobs must satisfy the JSON requirements needed to preserve their
data.
Review comments at @durable_queue_test.go:
- Around line 123-124: Ensure each watch registration has a stable identity so
unsubscribing a completed handle removes or clears only its own watch, not a
later registration reusing the same job ID or index. Update the watch
registration and unsubscribe logic around s.watches, and add a regression test
covering ID reuse with clearOnPush where closing the old handle leaves the new
waiter callback intact.
Review comments at @durable_queue.go:
- Around line 65-69: Update the ID-generation condition in the Add flow to
generate an ID when storage implements either OutcomeWatcher or JobCanceller and
the job has no ID, so cancellation-capable storage can return a working
cancellation handle.
Review comments at @job.go:
- Line 750: Update the durable-result encoding around json.Marshal(rj.data) to
recover panics from MarshalJSON and route them through the existing
encoding-failure path, completing the job without a result just as for other
encoding errors.
- Around line 588-589: Update the acknowledgement fallback around
AcknowledgeResult so a temporary failure does not acknowledge the job or discard
ref.ext.result; retain the result for retry. Distinguish transient failures from
permanent result rejection using the existing error classification, and preserve
the current fallback behavior only for permanent rejection.
Review comments at @README.md:
- Line 134: Update the README description of WithQueue and WithPriorityQueue to
qualify restart survival: clarify that jobs survive restarts only when the
storage backend is persistent, rather than implying that IAcknowledgeable alone
guarantees durability.
- Around line 159-169: Update the shared-storage cancellation section around
Job.Cancel to document that the backend must provide JobCanceller or Cancel
returns ErrCancelUnsupported and the job may still run. State that cancelling a
running job also requires notification support, and reporting ErrJobCancelled
requires outcome watching and cancellation-outcome support; otherwise Err may
return ErrDetached or *RemoteError. Update the example to check and handle
Cancel errors.

Review comments at @contract/cancel.go:
- Around line 18-23: Update the cancellation contract comment around CancelJob
to remove the claim that the pre-run check ends a waiting workflow task; clarify
that the check uses workflow state rather than the job’s cancellation mark,
while preserving the distinction between Workflow.Cancel for waiting tasks and
CancelNotifier for running tasks.
Review comments at @durable_queue.go:
- Around line 34-38: Update the worker binding flow so cancellation watching is
enabled before `w.bind` activates the source, including in the deprecated
binders. Keep the existing subscription setup and ensure jobs cannot start
before `watchCancels` is active.
- Around line 134-135: Update Purge so removing jobs from shared storage
notifies every affected watcher, including producer handles owned by other
queues; do not rely only on the current queue’s d.detachLive cleanup. Preserve
the existing storage-close behavior while ensuring handles for purged jobs
cannot remain waiting indefinitely.
Review comments at @job_cancel.go:
- Line 298: Update the cancellation notification flow around `w.running` so each
notification is tied to the specific job execution, not just the reusable job
ID. Ensure delayed callbacks cannot cancel a later execution with the same ID,
and preserve retry behavior when a job returns an error rather than allowing
storage to finalize it as cancelled.
- Around line 132-137: Update the `finishCancelled` path after
`j.transition(closed, waitingOnly)` so a failed cancellation acknowledgement is
retained for retry and reported through the worker’s existing error mechanism.
Do not discard `ackErr` or treat the job as fully acknowledged until the retry
path can complete it.
- Line 321: Update the OnCancel registration that calls w.cancelRunning so its
registration is released when the worker is discarded, preventing long-lived
storage from retaining obsolete workers or accumulating callbacks. Preserve
cancellation for restarted workers by ensuring the active worker has a valid
registration after restart, using the cancellation notifier’s supported
registration lifecycle.
- Around line 232-235: Update the group-member cancellation paths that call
gj.cancel to send ErrJobCancelled through gj.sendError before releasing each
member, so group Errs() and Results() report cancellations. Preserve the
existing release and response-closing behavior.
Review comments at @README.md:
- Line 155: Update the generated-ID statement in the README and CHANGELOG.md to
qualify that the default generator assigns a random ID only when storage
implements OutcomeWatcher or JobCanceller; otherwise, callers who need an ID
must supply one.
Review comments at @remote_job.go:
- Around line 121-126: Update the documentation for remoteJob.Close to clarify
that closing a shared-storage job stops waiting but does not cancel it, so it
may still run; distinguish this from EnqueuedJob.Close, where a queued job is
skipped, and refer readers to Cancel to request cancellation when supported.
Review comments at @spec/redis-storage.md:
- Line 396: Update the Pop contract so a capped pop that leaves items signals
the caller to retry immediately, even when it returns no items. Ensure the
subscribed batch source distinguishes this signal from temporarily unavailable
work and does not discard the remaining-item count; preserve the 1,000-item cap
and existing behavior when no items remain.
- Around line 396-397: Update the Running job cancellation flow around
`cancel:<id>` and `:cancelled` so a redelivery finishing cannot invalidate a
cancellation request that an already-active delivery still needs to observe.
Track cancellation validity across active deliveries, and retire it only when it
is safe for all of them; preserve the stale-notification safeguard for a reused
job ID.
Review comments at @worker_pool.go:
- Around line 143-145: Update the public documentation for Cancel in job.go,
remote_job.go, and README.md to state that a shared job dequeued but not yet
tracked by a worker may still run after a cancellation request, and its context
is cancelled only if the request reaches it. Preserve the distinct in-memory
cancellation guarantees and existing outcome descriptions.

Needs the redisq release that implements `redis-storage.md` 1.7.0 (`WatchOutcome`, `AcknowledgeResult`, `CancelJob`). Older redisq, v1.5.1 included, lacks `Reject` and does not compile with this varmq (its queue does not satisfy `IPersistentQueue`).
On a bound handle, `Wait`, `Err` and `Result` work as with in-memory queues when the storage reports outcomes (`OutcomeWatcher`, redisq); a failed job's `Err` is a `*varmq.RemoteError` (text only), a result over 64 KiB is dropped (`ErrNoResult`). Storage without it (sqliteq, custom) gives `ErrDetached`. A job added without an id gets a random one, so its outcome can be matched.

- **Key.** `<base>:cancelled`, ZSET: member a Job ID with a cancel request, score the time the request expires (ms), 24 h after it was made. A member whose score is past is absent. Purge deletes the key.
- **CancelJob.** Input: Job ID. One script: if `HGET <base>:jobs <id>` is a record with `state` `completed`, `failed` or `cancelled`, report "ended" and change nothing. Else `ZREMRANGEBYSCORE <base>:cancelled -inf <now>`, `ZADD <base>:cancelled <now + 86400000> <id>`, `PEXPIRE <base>:cancelled 86400000` (a backstop only), `PUBLISH <base>:control cancel:<id>`; report "requested". Storage cannot tell a waiting job from an unknown ID, so an application that lets untrusted callers cancel by ID MUST authorize and rate-limit them. A workflow item is not dropped at pop (Pop, below): a waiting workflow task or undo is cancelled with Cancel a workflow (6.11); CancelJob still reaches a running one through the message.
- **Pop.** Every pop (one item or a batch, FIFO or priority), after the pause gate: when `EXISTS <base>:cancelled` is 1, for each item it would hand out, read the envelope `id` (`pcall(cjson.decode)`; an unparsable item is handed out). On a storage that implements workflows (sections 6.9 to 6.12), an item whose workflow fields are valid (section 3) and whose `id` is `wf:<wf>:<task>`, or `wf:<wf>:<task>:undo` for `undo` true, is handed out and its mark stays: pop cannot apply the workflow's end (6.10), so dropping it would leave the workflow running for good, and the pre-run check (6.12) ends it. Any other item, including one with invalid workflow fields or any item on a storage without workflows, is checked as a plain job, so a crafted `wf` field cannot escape a cancel. Else, if `ZSCORE <base>:cancelled <id>` is above now: do not hand it out; `ZREM` it; `ZREM <base>:completed <id>` and `HDEL <base>:attempts <id>`, as a finish does; write a record with `state` `cancelled` (fields as section 4, no `started_at`, `errors` absent), indexed in `<base>:failed` under failed retention; `PUBLISH <base>:done:<id>` with outcome `{"id":<id>,"state":"cancelled","error":"cancelled"}`; count it neither completed nor failed; go on with the next item. One script MUST drop at most 1000 items; at that cap it returns what it has (maybe nothing), reports items left, and does not join `<base>:idle`, so the caller pops again. Retention trims once per script, after the drops. When the set is absent a pop does no more than before.

Signal a retry after a capped pop.
When a subscribed batch source drops 1,000 cancelled jobs before a live job, the empty result makes the source discard the remaining count. The live job can then remain unprocessed indefinitely. Make capped pops signal an immediate retry separately from temporarily unavailable work.

Review comment at @spec/redis-storage.md at line 396:
Update the Pop contract so a capped pop that leaves items signals the caller to
retry immediately, even when it returns no items. Ensure the subscribed batch
source distinguishes this signal from temporarily unavailable work and does not
discard the remaining-item count; preserve the 1,000-item cap and existing
behavior when no items remain.

- **Running job.** A consumer that gets `cancel:<id>` on `<base>:control` SHOULD first check that `ZSCORE <base>:cancelled <id>` is above now (the storage, before it calls its cancel hooks): a finish or a re-add already removed the mark, so a stale message (late, for an earlier run of a reused ID) is dropped. This narrows the window, it does not close it. A consumer that runs job `<id>` SHOULD then stop it (in Go: cancel its context). A message with no consumer listening is lost; the mark still drops the job if it is requeued. A job that then ends because of it is finished with **Acknowledge cancelled**: as Reject (6.4), counted `failed` in `:stats`, but the record `state` is `cancelled`, the outcome `state` is `cancelled` with `error` the reason, never requeued, and `ZREM <base>:cancelled <id>`. A job that ends in another way is finished as usual and also `ZREM`s the id.

Preserve cancellation for all active deliveries.
When a visibility timeout causes two consumers to run the same job, the redelivery can finish and remove the cancellation mark before the original consumer checks its notification. The original consumer then continues despite watching its context. Track cancellation validity without discarding requests needed by active deliveries.

Update the Running job cancellation flow around `cancel:<id>` and `:cancelled`
so a redelivery finishing cannot invalidate a cancellation request that an
already-active delivery still needs to observe. Track cancellation validity
across active deliveries, and retire it only when it is safe for all of them;
preserve the stale-notification safeguard for a reused job ID.

A cancellation received after dequeue but before tracking can be missed. The job can still run with an uncancelled context. The public descriptions currently promise otherwise.
