Go Review Jobs: Handling Long Document Extraction and Timeouts Without False Completion

The article explains how to run bounded review jobs that turn long documents into JSON while keeping an explicit incomplete state after a timeout. It argues that a parseable response does not prove a review finished, so deadlines, token budgets, and evidence coverage should be tracked separately. Failures such as local deadlines, transport errors, context-budget rejections, and validation problems are recorded in distinct categories because each calls for a different fix. The author advises against blind retries, since a timed-out request may still have run remotely, and recommends deduplicating published findings by review revision and finding identity. Chunking should follow source boundaries and fit the selected provider's tokenizer limits, with file paths and line numbers kept outside the model's output.
