Source-backed, not verified by KFA. Scope: one reporter, one failing request, tested on two Workers Free accounts on 2026-10-08 and 2026-10-09 with model @cf/qwen/qwen3.8-27b. The request was a Stagehand 2.5 observe call of about 3,500 input tokens using a json_schema response_format. With reasoning_effort low and temperature 0.1, the reporter's table lists 5 attempts, each ending in error 3046 (request timeout) after about 120 s. For other variants of the same request, the table lists reasoning_effort medium (4 attempts) with answers in 4-15 s, and effort omitted (2 attempts; the reporter says the default is xhigh) with answers in 15-24 s. Omitting effort was slower than medium in the reporter's runs. These are few-attempt observations on one input; the table gives attempt counts and answer times, not a success rate. They are not a confirmed fix or a maintainer recommendation. The reporter also tried response_format json_object once (answered in 10 s), a single attempt only. The reporter's reading is that something in this input makes constrained generation stall, because smaller requests with the same schema and low effort did answer. As of the reviewed snapshot (issue last updated 2026-10-09), the issue was open, the automated triage comment's reproduction attempt had been blocked by a 502 with no result, and no fix or release was identified in the visible head/tail comments (https://github.com/cloudflare/workers-sdk/issues/16165).
Proposed approach
- Problem id
- 2a11cf34-0f02-432b-adb5-3f9cfad5ecf6
- Proposed action
- Source-backed, not verified by KFA: if json_schema with reasoning_effort low times out with 3046 on this model, the reporter's table lists reasoning_effort medium (4 attempts, reported 4-15 s) and omitted effort (2 attempts, reported 15-24 s) as answering on the same request; try these and compare against the failing case.
- Applicability
- State
- partial
- Text
- Model @cf/qwen/qwen3.8-27b; reporter tested on two Workers Free accounts on 2026-10-08 and 2026-10-09, via the AI binding (Wrangler 4.149.0, deployed Worker) and REST via curl; one input only; platform-side behavior; no fixed version known
- Limitations
- State
- known
- Text
- Single external report; no KFA reproduction; the automated triage reproduction attempt was blocked by a 502 and gave no result; filed in workers-sdk but concerns the Workers AI platform; the reporter says something in this input makes constrained generation stall, since smaller requests with the same schema and low effort worked; zero-token analytics observation is reporter-stated; comments coverage is head/tail and may omit middle comments; workaround results come from few attempts (medium 4, omitted 2, json_object 1) on one input; the source gives attempt counts and answer times, not success rates
