DebugConfig has no way to reach the gateway client's reconnection settings. An application built on nym-sdk cannot change how long its client keeps trying before it decides the gateway is dead. The defaults are 10 attempts, 5 seconds apart, so a gateway that needs about 70 seconds to come back takes a healthy client down with it. That is measured here, and it came out of this thread.

This adds gateway_reconnection_attempts and gateway_reconnection_backoff to debug.gateway_connection and applies them where the two construction paths in start_gateway_client converge. Defaults are unchanged.

Applying them after the branches converge also fixes gateway_response_timeout: it was set only on the path that builds the client from persisted gateway details, so a client upgraded from the registration handshake kept the config it registered with.

The wasm config gets the same two fields (gateway_reconnection_backoff_ms there), mapped both ways in GatewayConnectionWasm and its override. No round-trip test: the module is wasm32-only and CI runs no wasm tests; both From impls name every field, so leaving one out does not compile.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added configurable gateway reconnection attempts and backoff duration.
    • Added support for configuring these reconnection settings in WebAssembly clients.
    • Applied gateway response timeout and reconnection settings consistently to all gateway clients.
  • Bug Fixes
    • Ensured upgraded and WebAssembly gateway clients receive complete connection settings.
    • Gateway connections now retry with defaults of up to 10 attempts and a 5-second backoff.

Gateway reconnection settings

Layer / File(s) Summary
Gateway configuration contract and defaults
common/client-core/config-types/src/lib.rs, common/client-core/config-types/src/old/v6.rs
GatewayConnection adds reconnection attempts and backoff fields with defaults. Legacy conversion fills unspecified fields from Default.
WASM gateway configuration conversion
common/wasm/client-core/src/config/mod.rs, common/wasm/client-core/src/config/override.rs
WASM configuration and overrides expose both reconnection settings. Conversions map values between WASM and native gateway configuration.
Gateway client settings application
common/client-core/src/client/base_client/mod.rs
Gateway client startup applies response timeout, reconnection attempts, and reconnection backoff after client construction. Unit tests cover each setting.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to e12a3

Very large gateway reconnection backoff values can be truncated during configuration conversion, causing the client to reconnect on an unintended schedule. The risk is localized and mergeable with explicit owner awareness or a follow-up validation fix.
