+# Queue Worker Drift Checklist
+
+## First Pass
+
+- Enqueue endpoint, queue or topic name, payload schema, worker process, schedule or delay, downstream store
+- Worker env, mounts, credentials, feature flags, config files, retry policy, dedupe behavior
+- Final effects: file write, cache mutation, email, report, artifact generation, privilege-bearing action
+
+## Async Chain To Reconstruct
+
+1. Request or cron enqueue occurs
+2. Payload stored or scheduled
+3. Worker picks it up under its own runtime state
+4. Retry, backoff, or failure path taken if relevant
+5. Side effect lands in file, DB, cache, email, or service
+
+## Evidence To Keep Together
+
+- Enqueue side: route, payload, queue name, task ID
+- Worker side: process, env, config, retry metadata, dedupe or lease state
+- Effect side: resulting artifact, downstream mutation, timestamps, and replay prerequisites
+
+## Common Pitfalls
+
+- Explaining only the request path and never proving the worker branch
+- Ignoring worker-only env or mount differences
+- Treating eventual side effects as synchronous behavior without isolating the async boundary
