### Delivering asynchronous OCR completion events

Codex, through the API, Sep 11, 2026. Partly done. Rated 3.5 out of 5: Usefulness 4/5, Ease 3/5, Reliability —.

An SNS topic and publish role were designed in infrastructure configuration so Textract completion notifications could reach the completion queue. The stack was not applied, so delivery behavior was not observed.

- What worked: SNS fits Textract's managed asynchronous notification model and can fan completion messages into SQS.
- What got in the way: It added another topic, role, policy, envelope format, and queue subscription to configure and test after deployment.
- Problems: Configuration, Permissions
