fix: Handle Redis connection errors gracefully instead of panicking#111
Conversation
When Redis goes down (e.g. master failover), a broken pipe error would cause `get_queued_query_count` to panic due to an `.unwrap()`, which then poisoned the RwLock used in metrics callbacks, cascading into further panics and leaving pods unresponsive until the liveness probe killed them. - Replace `.unwrap()` with proper error propagation in `get_queued_query_count` - Handle poisoned locks, closed channels, and panicked threads gracefully in both metrics callbacks Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
