[BUG][Local dev] Endless function execution at 9+ steps

[Marcados]

Describe the bug
A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

To Reproduce

// hangs at step 10
for (let i = 0; i < 12; i++) {
  await step.run(`step-${i}`, () => `result-${i}`)
}

// works fine
for (let i = 0; i < 12; i++) {
  await step.run(`step-${i}-${Date.now()}`, () => `result-${i}`)
}

and here is the complete inngest function that fails:

inngest.createFunction(
  { id: 'step-count-test', retries: 0 },
  { event: 'test/step-count' },
  async ({ step }) => {
    for (let i = 0; i < 12; i++) {
      await step.run(`step-${i}`, () => `result-${i}`)
    }
    return 'done'
  },
)

Expected behavior
All steps to complete.

Hi @Marcados!

I can't seem to reproduce this locally. Is this specific to Agent Kit and #290?

[Marcados]

hi @jpwilliams!

Yes it is related. I use AgentKit with Inngest in an Express server.

That's interesting if you cant reproduce it, it could point to another source for this issue: maybe a misconfiguration on my side?

The fix on the PR does fix the issue for me, but I might have been too quick.

[Marcados]

i closed my PR because even if it fixed the issue on my side most of the time, I still got it sometimes. So, the diagnostic might be wrong:

Got it. I'll move this issue over to the AgentKit repo as it's likely related to that instead of the TS SDK!
