#7008 Support immediate GC cleanup when MaxTTL &lt;= 0 Issue created by pingsutw Summary Currently, the TaskAction garbage collector validates that
MaxTTL > 0
when GC is enabled (
Interval > 0
). Setting
MaxTTL
to
0
or a negative value returns an error. We could instead treat
MaxTTL <= 0
as "delete terminal TaskActions immediately" (i.e., on the next GC cycle). This would be useful for environments where operators want to aggressively clean up completed TaskActions without waiting. Proposed behavior | MaxTTL value | Behavior | | ------------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------- | | > 0 | Delete terminal TaskActions older than MaxTTL (current behavior) | | <= 0 | Delete all terminal TaskActions immediately on each GC cycle | Context Raised during PR #6994 review. Current code defensively rejects
MaxTTL <= 0
to prevent accidental deletion of all terminal TaskActions. Considerations • Need clear documentation so operators understand
MaxTTL: 0
means immediate deletion • Consider whether a named sentinel (e.g.,
maxTTL: immediate
) would be clearer than relying on
0
