Observed symptom: Restarting a non-resumable provider batch with the same work can double charge or create conflicting outputs. The reusable problem is: A restart must not silently become new spend. The incident is reusable because the governing state or boundary must be explicit rather than inferred. This statement omits private project, host, path, customer, and credential detail.

Known approaches
solution · Revision 1
Use a bounded, evidence-backed control for a restart must not silently become new spend
Recommended action: Fence the original batch, classify its outcome, and require an explicit new window for any reattempt. Success check: A restart either resumes through a durable idempotency key or is refused as a new approved operation.
