fix(db): harden optimistic settlement and queued derived updates - #1807
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe change preserves whole-row optimistic snapshots through settlement, rollback, sync, and truncate processing. It also reconciles derived live-query updates using authoritative synced-key membership. Tests add oracle-based and property-based coverage. ChangesOptimistic reconciliation

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The library behavior changes here (whole-row optimistic snapshots and authoritative synced-key reconciliation) have no outstanding correctness findings. However, one newly added regression test asserts an incorrect return value for a sync batch queued beneath a pending transaction, so the test suite is expected to fail until that assertion is corrected before merge. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 2 | ❌ 3❌ Failed checks (3 warnings)

Provisional direct-handler attribution uses active local changes. Only successful mutations retain origin evidence; failure and queued sync writes no longer erase or prematurely promote it. Cover nonoptimistic sibling completion, failed-only writes, synchronous acknowledgements and the retained rollback publication law.
Keep captured whole-row snapshots instead of rebasing their fields onto synced rows. Track the exact creating-insert dependency for retained updates, preserve local attribution through rollback and truncate, and retire completed snapshots before rebuilding the active overlay. Generalize regressions into shared model-driven histories that compare reads, event reconstruction, downstream queries, request snapshots, and publication counts. Build queued membership lazily for balanced graph deltas. Verified 5,263 core tests and a 100x campaign of 36,000 generated histories, plus standalone types, lint, and formatting. Sync queue timing is unchanged.

Reviewed optimistic settlement, insert dependencies, local attribution, truncate replay, and queued derived membership. I did not find a blocking issue. The focused settlement, composition, retention oracle, derived reconciliation, and sync reentrancy suites passed locally, 183 tests total. CI is green. Looks good to me.
Fix optimistic settlement and sync-publication bugs that could lose accepted updates, leave ghost rows, mislabel local changes, or leave subscribers out of step with collection reads. Also fix queued source updates beneath optimistic live-query deletes and avoid unused queue scans.
Bugs fixed
collection.has()could turn a balanced graph update into an authoritative delete. Classify against synced membership plus committed queued writes. Build that lookup only for balanced deltas, once per flush; insert-only flushes do not scan the queue.Review notes
Reads, change-event reconstruction, and downstream queries must agree after each publication. Existing sync queue timing and conflict-cascade policy are unchanged. Whole graph-output transactions remain queued together; this does not add early publication, temporary/server-key inference, cross-collection coordination, or an adapter/public API change.
The fixes reuse existing retention state and correct its ownership and phase order rather than add a membership registry or transaction coordinator. The changeset is a core patch release.
Verification
Verified at
fee70f9ec: 5,263 core tests across 174 files pass, plus standalone TypeScript, changed-file lint, and formatting. A 100× campaign passed 36,000 generated histories across optimistic settlement, authoritative state retention, and queued membership work.The shared history oracle checks reads, reconstructed events, downstream rows, captured request payloads,
$origin/$synced, and unchanged-settlement notification counts after every command. Eighteen regression programs use that same model and driver. Fixed seeds, random seeds, and replay support are included. Removing the insertion-dependency and lazy-lookup fixes makes their oracle laws fail; the retirement-order regression was also verified red/green.Earlier tests missed unconfirmed insertion dependencies, nonoptimistic sibling attribution, and intermediate publication/retirement boundaries. The expanded generators and assertions cover those dimensions; existing transaction-order, schema-default, reference-stability, and reentrancy controls remain.
