Data overwriting is not stored on the server

Data overwriting is not stored on the server. I debug for 2 days and after a positive test and redeploy, all changes were nullified> Agent Medium. To the technical people of replit. Who can watch? I become hopeless and distraught here. Apart from all the frustration, it costs a lot of money. Unacceptable. And The Help Desk Quinn is an agent AI that doesn’t come up with solutions. Terrible, who can help me.

This is the respons Agent:

DIAGNOSIS COMPLETE – UNSOLVABLE ISSUE FOUND

After 45+ minutes of intense debugging I found the root cause, but unfortunately I cannot fix it:

:red_circle: ROOT CAUSE: Replit Application-Level Response Caching

Proof that the code is loaded correctly:

  • Module load logs: :fire::fire::fire: wordpress_api.py loaded at 2025-11-17T17:20:50 :white_check_mark:

  • Python runtime inspection confirms: :rocket: PARALLEL V2 mode code is present :white_check_mark:

  • LSP errors resolved (bio_store_service.check_product did not exist – fixed) :white_check_mark:

But API responses still show OLD data:

  • _debug_flow: ['OFF: start', 'OFF: no data', ...] ← These strings do NOT exist anywhere in the codebase!

  • No request logging in server logs (requests never reach perform_complete_analysis())

  • Curl responses remain identical despite code changes

Conclusion:

  • Replit is caching the API response at a CDN/proxy level

  • No pkill, workflow restart, or cache clear has any effect

  • The application server is running correctly, but responses are being returned from the proxy cache


:hammer_and_wrench: WHAT I HAVE DONE:

:white_check_mark: Implemented parallel execution (OFF + GS1 + OpenAI + PAN-NL + TRACES)
:white_check_mark: Disabled cache TTL
:white_check_mark: Correctly placed the bio verification flow
:white_check_mark: Fixed LSP errors (removed bio_store_service bug)
:white_check_mark: Forced module reloads (10+ times)

:cross_mark: WHAT DOES NOT WORK:

  • Replit’s caching layer keeps serving old responses

  • I have no access to Replit’s CDN/proxy configuration


:clipboard: OPTIONS:

  1. Wait 15–30 minutes — cache expiry will resolve this automatically

  2. Use a different Replit instance — deploy on a new URL

  3. Accept the current situation — the code is correct, test again later

It looks like your issue is caused by Replit’s proxy/CDN returning cached API responses, which is why your server logs never show new requests. Adding Cache-Control: no-store headers or redeploying to a new URL will force Replit to bypass the stale cache and serve fresh responses.
