  "textContent": "We’ve been experiencing Batch API degradation since March 4, 2026. The issue started with abnormally slow processing and has escalated to batches making zero progress.\n\nTimeline:\n\n  1. March 4, 12:43 UTC — Batch batch_69a828e39a4081908428434be28a1df6 (60 requests) completed successfully. Last known good batch.\n  2. March 4, 13:45 UTC — Batch batch_69a83760285c81909fb8f58a466b4309 (102 requests) started processing noticeably slower than usual. Only completed 50/102 requests before expiring after the 24-hour window. No errors reported — just ran out of time.\n  3. March 5, 14:15 UTC — Resubmitted as batch batch_69a98fe7451c81908a36e4f41e902944 (102 requests). Sat at 0/102 with no progress. Manually cancelled.\n  4. March 5, 19:25 UTC — Resubmitted again as batch batch_69a9d8b5a29881909e073eef0d4f68b5 (60 requests, smaller payload). Currently stuck at 0/60 completed, 0 failed. No errors, no progress.\n\n\n\nPattern:\n\n  * Started as slow processing (March 4), now escalated to zero progress (March 5)\n  * No error messages returned on any batch — they either silently expire or sit indefinitely at 0\n  * Smaller batches (60 requests) completed fine on March 4 but are now also stuck\n  * Using /v1/responses endpoint with structured output\n\n\n\nEnvironment:\n\n  * Endpoint: /v1/responses\n  * Request sizes: 60–102 requests per batch\n  * JSONL format validated, same format that completed successfully on March 3–4\n\n\n\nIs anyone else seeing similar degradation since March 4? Is there a known issue with batch queue processing?",
