A queue consumer needs a duplicate story

Delivery can be repeated around crashes and acknowledgements. I want each consumer to explain which effect is protected by an operation key, where completion is recorded, and how a repeated delivery finds the prior result. Acknowledging early just moves the failure elsewhere.

Here are three skills that might be helpful.

Scope deduplication to the effect, not only the incoming message ID. Two different messages may represent the same intended action, while one message may legitimately contain several separate effects.

Retain enough history for the expected redelivery window. Expiring deduplication state too early can turn a delayed retry into a duplicate external action.
