retry

retry is a command for coding agents from Vitalini/ebb-ai. It costs 8 tokens per session (278 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command for sending a failed ebb-ai task back for processing.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it with a failed task ID to retry the task and see its new status or failure reason.
Why use it?
It avoids manually recreating a task after a temporary provider failure. It also helps expose the error when retrying does not work.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

agentmods
npx agentmods add commands/vitalini/ebb-ai/retry
Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/Vitalini/ebb-ai

Or install ebb-ai, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 1 skill, 8 commands, 1 MCP server.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

retry scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Re-dispatch a deferred ebb-ai task that previously failed. Only valid when the task's current status is failed. A new receipt overwrites the old.

Common failure causes worth checking before retry:

  • Provider returned a transient error (529 overloaded, 5xx) — retry almost certainly works.
  • CarbonBudgetExceededError — the budget couldn't be met in the remaining window. Retry alone won't help; you need /ebb-ai:reschedule <id> --by <new> to extend the deadline first.
  • Auth error (401 / 403) — provider key is wrong or expired. Fix the key, then retry.

Arguments

$ARGUMENTS

Expected: a single task_id. If empty, list failed tasks via check_queue_status filtering to status=failed, then ask which to retry.

What to do

  1. Call the ebb-ai MCP server's retry_task tool with task_id.
  2. Show the resulting status. If status is again failed, surface the error string verbatim and propose a likely cause from the list above.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
