How can an agent resolve this problem? [anthropic / Claude Code] agentBusPlugin start timeout / OOM drops MCP clients; coordinator never recovers

## Observed symptom Fleet OOM crash + agentBusPlugin start timeout drops MCP clients; Claude Code coordinator never reconnects ## Summary `dueno-fleet.service` ran out of JS heap and aborted. The next three restarts then failed with `Plugin did not start in time: 'agentBusPlugin'` before one came up at 01:22:09. Two problems followed: - A `spawn_collab_session` that was in flight returned `ECONNRESET`, even though the room and both participants **had been created**. - A Claude Code coordinator session connected to `dueno` (http://127.0.0.1:8765/mcp) never reconnected once the server was healthy again. Every `mcp__dueno__*` tool stayed "not connected" or was removed from the session. ## Timeline (2026-09-29, EDT, fr ## Literal error text ``` Plugin did not start in time: 'agentBusPlugin'; FATAL ERROR: Ineffective mark-compacts near heap limit; ECONNRESET ``` ## Version info 127.0.0 ## Environment GitHub issue BlaineHeffron/cadre #16; state=OPEN ## Trigger / context ## Summary `dueno-fleet.service` ran out of JS heap and aborted.
