Thanks a lot for your time, and please let me know if there’s anything I can adjust to help move it forward.

Pull Request Overview

This PR fixes a timeout error that occurs after 4 hours by implementing periodic reconnections every 30 minutes and improving log resumption to avoid restarting from the beginning.

• Implements a 30-minute connection timeout with automatic reconnection
• Adds log line tracking to resume from the last processed line instead of restarting
• Introduces connection state management to control retry behavior during reconnections

The magic number 1800 should be defined as a named constant (e.g., CONNECTION_TIMEOUT_SECONDS = 1800) to improve code maintainability and make the 30-minute timeout more explicit.

Suggested change

	connection_max_time = 1800 # time in seconds
	connection_max_time = CONNECTION_TIMEOUT_SECONDS

[Copilot]

This condition will skip the first line when resuming (when last_line_number > 0). The condition should be 'current_line_number >= last_line_number' to avoid missing lines during log resumption.

Suggested change

	if current_line_number > last_line_number or last_line_number == 0:
	if current_line_number >= last_line_number:

[Copilot]

The last_line_number is being set to current_line_number inside the if block, but current_line_number is incremented after this assignment. This will cause the next reconnection to skip one line. Move this assignment after the current_line_number increment or use current_line_number + 1.

Suggested change

	last_line_number = current_line_number
	current_line_number += 1
	current_line_number += 1
	last_line_number = current_line_number
