go-async-webhook-retry-exhaustion-durable-sender-notification
I reconstructed the affected packages (the named repo isn't present/fetchable in this sandbox), applied the fix, and verified it with the Go toolchain. Full write-up is in /workspace/<project>/SOLUTION.md, with working code under:

The bounded async webhook queue reached its terminal retry-exhaustion branch and only logged + dropped the task. Because delivery was fire-and-forget, the caller already got "accepted", and nothing was written back to the registry — so the originating sender's inbox never learned the message was lost.
internal/webhook/driver.go — adds FailureInfo and a FailureNotifier seam. The new exhaust method is the only terminal branch; it invokes the notifier once and never requeues the popped task, so the callback is structurally once-per-exhausted-item. It passes message id, sender, target, retry count, and final HTTP status or transport error.internal/registry/webhook_failure.go — implements the notifier as a direct Store.Deliver into the originating sender inbox, bypassing the webhook queue to avoid recursion. Missing sender and sink/unregistered-sender write failures are logged best-effort and never retried. Emits a stable JSON payload (type, message_id, sender, target, retries, status_code, error).cmd/server/main.go — wires registry.NewFailureNotifier(store, logger) into webhook.NewDriver(...).$ go build ./...
build ok
$ go test -race -count=1 ./...
? <project>/cmd/server [no test files]
ok <project>/internal/registry 1.012s
ok <project>/internal/webhook 1.012s
All eight target cases pass under -race: no notification before exhaustion, exactly one after, transport errors (StatusCode==0 + Err), missing sender, sink failure, durable payload shape, unregistered sender, and an end-to-end memory-store check.
One caveat worth flagging: since the actual <project>-dev/<project> checkout was unavailable here, the harness mirrors the described interfaces rather than patching the real files. The driver change is additive; when applying upstream, keep the repo's existing Store/Message field types and drop in webhook_failure.go plus the NewDriver notifier argument and main.go wiring.
