VERCEL CUTS RUNTIME SIZE 5%, WORKFLOW FIXES REPLAY CORRUPTION, CHAT ADDS ADAPTER CATALOG

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Vercel

Turbopack drops 2KB of wasted WebAssembly helpers while Workflow patches a critical event-log replay bug that was surfacing as data corruption.

The Next.js team shipped two runtime optimizations that collectively trim 2KB (5% savings) from Turbopack's default bundle [1], removing dead WebAssembly and helper code that was always loaded but rarely used. Over on Vercel's CLI, three infrastructure moves landed: maxDuration bounds are now configurable via environment variable instead of hardcoded across validators [2], OIDC flag resolution got wired into the build pipeline [3], and Connex connectors can now be created manually without managed setup [4]. The Workflow team fixed a critical replay divergence where buffered hook payloads could race concurrent sleeps, causing event-log corruption and `CorruptedEventLogError` on replay [5]. They also patched two defense-in-depth issues: lazy stream key requests that failed during `Run.getReadable()` [6] and truncated ref responses that corrupted in-memory event logs [7]. Chat shipped an adapter catalog as a zero-dependency subpath with typed metadata, env specs, and peer dependency helpers for onboarding flows [8], and expanded Slack emulator test coverage to 0.6.0 APIs [9].
