When that process exited, the tables were destroyed. Concurrent + stream processes crashed with `badarg` inside + `decode_stream_message_for_selector/1`, killing the stream silently — no + `on_stream_error` callback fired. +- **Race condition on ETS table creation eliminated.** Application start is + serialized by the BEAM's application controller. Two processes can no longer + race to create the tables. +- **Removed all `try/catch error:badarg` guards from ETS access.** The previous + fix wrapped every ETS operation in try/catch, which silently swallowed errors + (e.g., returning compressed bytes as raw data). With the table now guaranteed + to exist for the application's lifetime, these guards are unnecessary and + were masking real errors. ETS operations are now direct calls — if the table + is gone, the process crashes loudly, which is correct behavior. + +### Added + +- **OTP application infrastructure.** `dream_http_client_app` (application + behaviour) and `dream_http_client_sup` (supervisor) provide the standard OTP + lifecycle for the module's ETS tables.

Three separate +issues combined to produce silent stream failures: + +**1. Transient table ownership** + +ETS named tables are owned by their creating process. The tables were created +lazily by `ensure_ref_mapping_table()` and `ensure_recorder_table()`, called +from short-lived processes (the caller of `start_stream()`, or the stream +process itself via `request_stream_messages()`). When the creating process +exited, the table was destroyed — taking all ref mappings with it. + +**2. Race condition on creation** + +If two processes called `ensure_ref_mapping_table()` concurrently when the +table didn't exist, both saw `undefined` from `ets:info/1`, and the second +`ets:new/2` call crashed with `badarg` (named table already exists). + +**3. Unprotected ETS access** + +Seven functions accessed the ETS table with bare `ets:lookup`/`ets:insert`/ +`ets:delete` calls — no error handling. When the table was destroyed, these +threw `badarg` inside `decode_stream_message_for_selector/1`, which runs in +the `receive` block of `gleam_erlang_ffi:select/2`. The crash killed the +stream process, but since it was spawned unlinked (`process.spawn_unlinked`), +no `on_stream_error` callback fired. The stream silently died. + +### Observed in production + +- Three independent streaming requests hung for exactly 900,001ms (the monitor + timeout), because the stream process crashed silently and no `on_stream_error` + callback fired +- Zero crash reports appeared in CloudWatch logs + +### The fix: OTP application (the Ranch pattern) + +`dream_http_client` is now a proper OTP application.
