Summary

What changed

File Change
validator/main.py Retry loop in _run_evaluation_run(): on inference error threshold, reset counter and retry just this run (up to 2 retries). Only marks as platform error (3050) after exhausting retries.
inference_gateway/error_hash_map.py Added reset_inference_errors() method to clear error count before retry
inference_gateway/main.py Added POST /api/reset-inference-errors endpoint
tests/test_inference_error_tracking.py Added tests for reset behavior

How it works

Agent runs problem X → hits 5 inference errors → threshold exceeded
  → Validator resets error counter
  → Validator retries ONLY problem X (not the whole evaluation)
  → If retry also fails → one more retry
  → If all 3 attempts fail → mark as platform error (3050)
Meanwhile, problems Y and Z continue running normally

Test plan

  • Verify ErrorHashMap.reset_inference_errors() clears the count
  • Verify reset doesn't affect other runs
  • Verify retry loop retries on threshold exceeded
  • Verify platform error raised after max retries exhausted
  • Run python3 -m pytest tests/test_inference_error_tracking.py -v

…ailing entire evaluation

Based on ridgesai#332 by @statxc which detects platform-side inference errors.

Changes the behavior so that when an evaluation run hits the inference error
threshold, only that specific run is retried (up to 2 times) instead of
marking the entire evaluation as failed.

Flow:
1. Agent finishes → validator checks /api/usage for inference errors
2. If errors >= threshold and retries remaining:
   - Reset error counter via POST /api/reset-inference-errors
   - Re-run only this specific problem (not the whole evaluation)
3. If errors >= threshold and retries exhausted:
   - Mark as PLATFORM_TOO_MANY_INFERENCE_ERRORS (3050)

New additions on top of ridgesai#332:
- ErrorHashMap.reset_inference_errors() method
- POST /api/reset-inference-errors gateway endpoint
- Retry loop in _run_evaluation_run() with MAX_SINGLE_RUN_RETRIES=2
- Tests for reset behavior

@ibraheem-abe This implements the change you requested in #332 — retrying only the specific run instead of restarting the entire evaluation. Would appreciate your review when you get a chance. Thanks!

- Fix test_reset_endpoint_allows_new_inferences_after_threshold to verify
  reset via usage endpoint instead of calling inference (avoids mock issues)
- Mark TestValidatorRetryLogic as skip when NETUID not set (requires full env)
- Move validator imports inside test to avoid import-time config failures
- 24 pass, 1 skipped (validator retry test needs full environment)
