Summary:Implementations herein relate to information describing one or more internal states of a technical system. Implementations herein are provided for characterizing reliability of various different third party servers, at least when reporting third party device statuses, as well as adapting protocols for device ecosystems affected by such reliability. Latency can affect accuracy of device states represented by assistant devices. Certain servers can be characterized as especially delayed when reporting an updated device state in response to a user request, and, as a result, the third party server can be correlated to a metric that characterizes the relative latency of the third party server. When the metric fails to satisfy a particular threshold, a server and/or client associated with the "ecosystem" of third party devices can affirmatively operate to retrieve device state updates, rather than passively await updates from a corresponding third party server.
