+# Task 4: Add Error Handling & Reconnection
+
+**Task ID**: TASK-004
+**Story**: [STORY-001](sprint_1_story_1.md)
+**Sprint**: [Sprint 1](sprint_1.md)
+**Estimated Hours**: 3h
+**Assignee**: Frontend Developer 1
+**Priority**: P0
+**Status**: Not Started
+
+---
+
+## Task Description
+
+Implement robust error handling, automatic reconnection logic with exponential backoff, and UI indicators for connection status.
+
+---
+
+## Objectives
+
+1. Add comprehensive error handling for connection failures
+2. Implement retry logic with exponential backoff
+3. Create connection status UI indicator component
+4. Add error boundary for SignalR failures
+5. Log errors for debugging
+
+---
+
+## Implementation
+
+### Step 1: Enhanced Reconnection Logic (1h)
+
+Already implemented in Task 1, but verify:
+
+```typescript
+// In SignalRService.ts - verify this exists
+.withAutomaticReconnect([1000, 2000, 4000, 8000, 16000])
+```
+
+Add manual reconnection:
+
+```typescript
+async reconnect(accessToken: string, tenantId: string): Promise<void> {
+  const maxRetries = 5;
+  let retryCount = 0;
+
+  while (retryCount < maxRetries) {
+    try {
+      await this.connect(accessToken, tenantId);
+      return;
+    } catch (error) {
+      retryCount++;
+      const delay = Math.min(1000 * Math.pow(2, retryCount), 16000);
+      signalRLogger.warn(`Reconnection attempt ${retryCount} failed. Retrying in ${delay}ms`);
+      await new Promise(resolve => setTimeout(resolve, delay));
+    }
+  }
+
+  signalRLogger.error('Max reconnection attempts reached');
+  this.updateStatus(ConnectionStatus.Failed);
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+### Step 2: Connection Status Indicator Component (1h)
+
+**File**: `src/components/SignalRStatus.tsx`
+
+```typescript
+import React from 'react';
+import { useSignalRContext } from '../services/signalr/SignalRContext';
+import { ConnectionStatus } from '../services/signalr/types';
+
+export const SignalRStatusIndicator: React.FC = () => {
+  const { connectionStatus, isConnected } = useSignalRContext();
+
+  const getStatusColor = () => {
+    switch (connectionStatus) {
+      case ConnectionStatus.Connected:
+        return 'bg-green-500';
+      case ConnectionStatus.Connecting:
+      case ConnectionStatus.Reconnecting:
+        return 'bg-yellow-500';
+      case ConnectionStatus.Disconnected:
+      case ConnectionStatus.Failed:
+        return 'bg-red-500';
+      default:
+        return 'bg-gray-500';
+    }
+  };
+
+  const getStatusText = () => {
+    switch (connectionStatus) {
+      case ConnectionStatus.Connected:
+        return 'Online';
+      case ConnectionStatus.Connecting:
+        return 'Connecting...';
+      case ConnectionStatus.Reconnecting:
+        return 'Reconnecting...';
+      case ConnectionStatus.Disconnected:
+        return 'Offline';
+      case ConnectionStatus.Failed:
+        return 'Connection Failed';
+      default:
+        return 'Unknown';
+    }
+  };
+
+  // Only show when not connected
+  if (isConnected) {
+    return null;
+  }
+
+  return (
+    <div className="fixed top-4 right-4 flex items-center gap-2 px-4 py-2 bg-white shadow-lg rounded-lg border">
+      <span className={`w-3 h-3 rounded-full ${getStatusColor()} animate-pulse`}></span>
+      <span className="text-sm font-medium text-gray-700">{getStatusText()}</span>
+    </div>
+  );
+};
+```
+
+---
+
+### Step 3: Error Boundary (30 min)
+
+**File**: `src/components/SignalRErrorBoundary.tsx`
+
+```typescript
+import React, { Component, ErrorInfo, ReactNode } from 'react';
+
+interface Props {
+  children: ReactNode;
+}
+
+interface State {
+  hasError: boolean;
+  error: Error | null;
+}
+
+export class SignalRErrorBoundary extends Component<Props, State> {
+  constructor(props: Props) {
+    super(props);
+    this.state = { hasError: false, error: null };
+  }
+
+  static getDerivedStateFromError(error: Error): State {
+    return { hasError: true, error };
+  }
+
+  componentDidCatch(error: Error, errorInfo: ErrorInfo) {
+    console.error('SignalR Error Boundary caught error:', error, errorInfo);
+  }
+
+  render() {
+    if (this.state.hasError) {
+      return (
+        <div className="p-4 bg-red-50 border border-red-200 rounded">
+          <h2 className="text-red-800 font-semibold">Real-time connection error</h2>
+          <p className="text-red-600 text-sm mt-2">
+            The application is still functional, but real-time updates are unavailable.
+            Please refresh the page to reconnect.
+          </p>
+        </div>
+      );
+    }
+
+    return this.props.children;
+  }
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+### Step 4: Integration (30 min)
+
+Update `src/App.tsx`:
+
+```typescript
+import { SignalRErrorBoundary } from './components/SignalRErrorBoundary';
+import { SignalRStatusIndicator } from './components/SignalRStatus';
+
+function App() {
+  return (
+    <AuthProvider>
+      <SignalRErrorBoundary>
+        <SignalRProvider>
+          <SignalRStatusIndicator />
+          {/* Your app components */}
+        </SignalRProvider>
+      </SignalRErrorBoundary>
+    </AuthProvider>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] Automatic reconnection works after network drop (tested)
+- [ ] Exponential backoff delays correct (1s, 2s, 4s, 8s, 16s)
+- [ ] Connection status indicator visible when offline
+- [ ] Error boundary catches SignalR errors
+- [ ] User sees friendly error messages (not stack traces)
+- [ ] All errors logged to console for debugging
+
+---
+
+## Testing Checklist
+
+### Manual Tests
+- [ ] Disconnect WiFi → see "Reconnecting..." indicator
+- [ ] Reconnect WiFi → see "Online" (indicator disappears)
+- [ ] Stop backend server → see "Connection Failed"
+- [ ] Invalid token → error boundary shows message
+
+### Automated Tests
+```typescript
+test('should retry connection 5 times before failing', async () => {
+  // Mock failed connections
+  // Verify 5 retry attempts
+  // Verify final status is Failed
+});
+
+test('should display connection status indicator when offline', () => {
+  render(<SignalRStatusIndicator />);
+  // Verify indicator visible
+});
+```
+
+---
+
+## Deliverables
+
+1. Enhanced reconnection logic in SignalRService
+2. SignalRStatusIndicator component
+3. SignalRErrorBoundary component
+4. Integration with App.tsx
+5. Manual and automated tests passing
