520 errors through the responses API

Thanks for the advice. We have moved some of these agents to use the background functionality - this seems to have this. What is interesting, we have been logging request / response times and the time between start and failure seems to vary. Some will run for 120 seconds and fail, some will run for 200 - 300 seconds and fail. I also saw a failure with an agent that ran for only 80 seconds.
