📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe change adds a configurable retry script with exponential backoff. GitHub Actions jobs and the Docker builder use it for Go module, tool installation, and license commands. ChangesRetry integration
Priority: ⬇️ Low — Defer this CI retry wrapper because it is a narrow reliability improvement for transient Go dependency failures and does not change product code. Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The retry wrapper can hang indefinitely with invalid configuration and can misexecute commands whose arguments contain spaces or shell syntax. Its default backoff also differs from the stated behavior, so the helper should be corrected before it is adopted across CI and Docker builds. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

shellcheck reported issue in this script: SC2016:info:1:46: Expressions don't expand in single quotes, use double quotes for that [shellcheck]

Fixed by resolving GOROOT eagerly into a variable before calling retry.sh, instead of deferring the $(go env GOROOT) expansion inside a single-quoted string. No more actionlint/shellcheck findings on this file.

Reject invalid retry limits before entering the loop.
With RETRY_MAX_ATTEMPTS=0 or a negative value, the termination test can never succeed, so the wrapper retries forever. A non-numeric value also keeps the test failing. Validate RETRY_MAX_ATTEMPTS as a positive integer and RETRY_SLEEP_SECONDS as a non-negative integer before the first attempt.

Align the default delay with the retry policy.
The PR objective states a five-second backoff. The default is 2 seconds, so the actual delays are 2 seconds and 4 seconds. Set the default to 5 seconds if exponential backoff is intended, or update the objective to describe the current schedule.

Of the 33
Checksruns triggered bymerge_groupin the last 14 days (32 completed, 1 in flight):go mod/module-proxy network error (this PR's fix)(One run hit both issues in the same run, so the two failure-cause rows don't sum to 11.)
In other words, over this window a PR sitting in the merge queue had roughly a 1-in-3.5 chance of getting bounced, and better than 4-in-5 of those bounces (9/11) were this exact network flake rather than anything wrong with the change itself. PR #3089 alone was bounced 3 separate times by 3 different, unrelated jobs — a strong flake signature, since a real bug would fail the same job deterministically.

go mod/module-proxy network flakes fixed by this PR):integration tests,image build,Cucumber BDD Tests,go (service)all failed on the samesum.golang.orgreset (PR feat(core): Make audit logger types extensible #3089, attempt 1 of 3)image buildfailed again on a different module (PR feat(core): Make audit logger types extensible #3089, attempt 2 of 3)license check,benchmark tests,go (examples)failed (PR feat(core): Make audit logger types extensible #3089, attempt 3 of 3)image build+Protocol Buffer Lint and Gencode Up-to-date check(PR chore(sdk): extract integrityAlgorithmString, createPolicyBinding, signAssertions #3934)platform-xtest(PR fix(sdk): map ReadAt plaintext offsets from cumulative segment sizes #3933)go (sdk)+Protocol Buffer Lint and Gencode Up-to-date check(PR feat(authz): wrap streaming/bidi handlers in Connect authN/authz interceptors #3867)integration tests+go (lib/fixtures)(PR fix(ers): fix direct entitlements silently dropped on token-identifier decisions #3908)This PR addresses the remaining category: no step in any of these jobs retried on a transient module-proxy/sumdb error, so a single Google-side blip anywhere would bounce the whole merge-queue entry.
Fix: add
.github/scripts/retry.sh, a small dependency-free POSIX-sh retry wrapper (no new third-party GitHub Action), and call it from plainrun:blocks at every remaining Go-module network call site. By default it retries up to 5 times with exponential backoff (2s, 4s, 8s, 16s between attempts), so it will keep retrying a transient failure for about 30 seconds before giving up and failing the job for real:gojob:go mod download/go mod verify(per matrix leg)integrationjob:go mod download/go mod verify/grpcurlinstallbenchmarkjob:go mod download/go mod verifygo get/go installlineslicensejob: the threego-licenses checkinvocationsDockerfile'sgo mod download/go mod verify(shared by theimageandtests-bddDocker builds)Ticket: DSPX-4639
