implement add-auto-compaction: 4MiB persist-time and 64KiB quit-time triggers, verified snapshot replacement retaining snapshot.loro.prev, batched update import on open; quit hook is App-level with Rc-shared storage (entity-scoped hooks never fire on Windows — entity dies with the window before quit observers run)

··· 199 199 length-prefixed, `fsync`'d before a write is considered acknowledged, and a 200 200 torn trailing write (a kill mid-append) is detected and simply dropped on 201 201 next open rather than treated as corruption. 202 - - There's no explicit "compact" action wired into the UI yet — the update 203 - log only shrinks if `GraphStorage::compact()` is called, which currently 204 - only happens implicitly in tests. On a long-running graph this log can grow 205 - large enough to make the next cold start noticeably slower (see 206 - "Performance notes" below) — a good Phase-8-adjacent follow-up would be an 207 - idle-time or startup-triggered auto-compact. 202 + - **The update log compacts automatically** (openspec change 203 + add-auto-compaction). Two triggers: when a persisted edit brings 204 + `updates.log` to 4 MiB, it is folded into a fresh snapshot immediately; 205 + and on graceful app quit, any log over 64 KiB is folded so the next launch 206 + loads almost purely from snapshot. Compaction never replaces the only good 207 + copy: the new snapshot is verified loadable before the swap, and the 208 + pre-compaction snapshot is retained as `snapshot.loro.prev` — a manual 209 + recovery fallback (if `snapshot.loro` ever fails to load, the error names 210 + it; note it predates the edits folded into the newer snapshot, so 211 + recovering from it loses that window). The log is also imported as a 212 + single batch on open, so even an uncompacted log replays quickly. 208 213 209 214 ## Keyboard reference 210 215

··· 102 102 `crash_safety.rs` (simulated by performing the snapshot write and skipping the 103 103 deletion, then re-opening) rather than being trusted silently. 104 104 105 - ### D5 — Quit hook via `cx.on_app_quit` 105 + ### D5 — Quit hook at the App level with `Rc`-shared storage (revised) 106 106 107 - `TrawlerApp` owns `GraphStorage` directly (`main.rs:225`). During app setup, 108 - register `cx.on_app_quit` with a weak handle to the `TrawlerApp` entity; the 109 - callback upgrades it and calls `compact_if_log_exceeds(QUIT_COMPACT_THRESHOLD_BYTES)`. 110 - If the entity is gone or compaction fails, quit proceeds regardless — quit-time 111 - compaction is an optimization, never a gate on exiting. Note GPUI quit hooks 112 - are best-effort by nature (a `SIGKILL`/power loss skips them); the size 113 - threshold in D3 is the guarantee, the quit hook is the polish. 107 + *Original decision (weak `TrawlerApp` entity handle via `Context::on_app_quit`) 108 + was invalidated by live verification on Windows:* the app quits **because** 109 + the last window closed, which drops the window's root entity — `TrawlerApp` — 110 + *before* quit observers run, and `Context::on_app_quit`'s observer silently 111 + skips a dead weak handle (`handle.update(..).ok()`). The entity-scoped hook 112 + therefore never fires on the platform trawler actually targets. 113 + 114 + Revised: `TrawlerApp.storage` becomes `Rc<GraphStorage>`, and app setup 115 + registers `gpui::App::on_app_quit` (App-scoped, not entity-scoped) with its 116 + own `Rc` clone calling 117 + `compact_if_log_exceeds(QUIT_COMPACT_THRESHOLD_BYTES)`. The hook's lifetime is 118 + the app's, independent of any window or entity. Compaction failure is 119 + swallowed — quit is never a gate. GPUI quit hooks remain best-effort by 120 + nature (a hard kill/power loss skips them); the size threshold in D3 is the 121 + guarantee, the quit hook is the polish. Verified live via dev-loop in both 122 + directions: a sub-threshold log is left untouched on quit, and a 70KB log 123 + was folded into the snapshot with `snapshot.loro.prev` retained (D7) and all 124 + content intact on relaunch. 114 125 115 126 ### D7 — Verify the new snapshot before trusting it; retain one prior snapshot 116 127

··· 1 1 ## 1. Core policy (trawler-core) 2 2 3 - - [ ] 1.1 Add `AUTO_COMPACT_THRESHOLD_BYTES` (4 MiB) and `QUIT_COMPACT_THRESHOLD_BYTES` (64 KiB) as documented named constants in `storage.rs` 4 - - [ ] 1.2 Implement `GraphStorage::compact_if_log_exceeds(min_bytes: u64) -> io::Result<bool>` — no-op returning `Ok(false)` when `updates.log` is absent or below `min_bytes`, otherwise delegate to `compact()` and return `Ok(true)` 5 - - [ ] 1.3 Call `compact_if_log_exceeds(AUTO_COMPACT_THRESHOLD_BYTES)` from `persist_update` after the successful append + fsync; report a compaction error on stderr and still return `Ok` (design D2) 6 - - [ ] 1.4 Unit tests in `storage.rs`: below-threshold no-op (snapshot untouched, log intact); at-threshold compaction (log gone, reopen yields identical state, no updates replayed); compaction triggered through `persist_update` with a tiny explicit threshold 3 + - [x] 1.1 Add `AUTO_COMPACT_THRESHOLD_BYTES` (4 MiB) and `QUIT_COMPACT_THRESHOLD_BYTES` (64 KiB) as documented named constants in `storage.rs` 4 + - [x] 1.2 Implement `GraphStorage::compact_if_log_exceeds(min_bytes: u64) -> io::Result<bool>` — no-op returning `Ok(false)` when `updates.log` is absent or below `min_bytes`, otherwise delegate to `compact()` and return `Ok(true)` 5 + - [x] 1.3 Call `compact_if_log_exceeds(AUTO_COMPACT_THRESHOLD_BYTES)` from `persist_update` after the successful append + fsync; report a compaction error on stderr and still return `Ok` (design D2) 6 + - [x] 1.4 Unit tests: below-threshold no-op (snapshot untouched, log intact); at-threshold compaction (log gone, reopen yields identical state, no updates replayed); the exact threshold call `persist_update` makes, at the boundary, with a real log 7 7 8 8 ## 2. Snapshot verification and retention (trawler-core, design D7) 9 9 10 - - [ ] 2.1 Rework `compact()`/`write_snapshot` to the D7 sequence: export to `.tmp` + fsync → verify (import tmp bytes into a scratch `LoroDoc`; on failure abort, leaving old snapshot + full log untouched) → copy `snapshot.loro` to `snapshot.loro.prev` + fsync → atomic rename tmp over `snapshot.loro` → delete `updates.log` 11 - - [ ] 2.2 Make `open()` on an undecodable `snapshot.loro` return an error that names `snapshot.loro.prev` when it exists (no silent fallback) 12 - - [ ] 2.3 Tests: verification-failure abort (corrupt tmp bytes → compact errors, old snapshot + log intact and loadable); `.prev` exists and equals the pre-compaction snapshot after a successful compact; open error mentions the fallback when the current snapshot is corrupted 10 + - [x] 2.1 Rework `compact()` to the D7 sequence: export to `.tmp` + fsync → verify (import bytes into a scratch `LoroDoc`; on failure abort, leaving old snapshot + full log untouched) → copy `snapshot.loro` to `snapshot.loro.prev` + fsync (writable handle — Windows `FlushFileBuffers` needs write access) → atomic rename tmp over `snapshot.loro` → delete `updates.log`. Implemented via `compact_with_verifier` (injectable verification seam for tests) 11 + - [x] 2.2 Make `open()` on an undecodable `snapshot.loro` return an error that names `snapshot.loro.prev` when it exists (no silent fallback) 12 + - [x] 2.3 Tests: verification-failure abort (forced failing verifier → compact errors, old snapshot + log byte-identical and loadable, no `.prev`/`.tmp` left); `.prev` equals the pre-compaction snapshot after a successful compact; open error names the fallback when the current snapshot is corrupted; garbage bytes fail `verify_snapshot_bytes` 13 13 14 14 ## 3. Batched import on open (trawler-core, design D8) 15 15 16 - - [ ] 3.1 Replace the per-blob `doc.import(blob)` loop in `GraphStorage::open` with one batched import of all `updates.log` blobs (verify the exact loro 1.13 batch entry point, e.g. `import_batch`) 17 - - [ ] 3.2 Test: create a graph, persist many small updates (one per edit), reopen, assert state identical to incremental opens; add an `#[ignore]`d timing comparison (per-blob vs batched at a few thousand blobs) alongside the existing expensive tests 16 + - [x] 3.1 Replace the per-blob `doc.import(blob)` loop in `GraphStorage::open` with one `import_batch` of all `updates.log` blobs 17 + - [x] 3.2 Test: 50 per-edit blobs reopen with identical content; `#[ignore]`d timing comparison (2000 blobs, per-blob vs batched, asserts state identity, reports speedup) 18 18 19 19 ## 4. Crash-safety interleaving (trawler-core) 20 20 21 - - [ ] 4.1 Add a `crash_safety.rs` test for the kill-between-rename-and-delete window: persist edits, complete the snapshot replacement without removing `updates.log` (simulate via the D7 steps or by restoring the log file after compaction), reopen, assert identical state 22 - - [ ] 4.2 Extend the test to run a subsequent compaction over the stale log and assert it removes the log and state is unchanged 21 + - [x] 4.1 `crash_safety.rs` test for the kill-between-rename-and-delete window: compact, restore the pre-compaction log (the exact on-disk state that kill leaves), reopen, assert identical state incl. derived index 22 + - [x] 4.2 Same test runs a subsequent compaction over the stale log and asserts it removes the log with state unchanged 23 23 24 24 ## 5. Quit hook (trawler app) 25 25 26 - - [ ] 5.1 Register `cx.on_app_quit` during app setup with a weak `TrawlerApp` entity handle; on quit, upgrade and call `compact_if_log_exceeds(QUIT_COMPACT_THRESHOLD_BYTES)`, ignoring failure so quit is never blocked 27 - - [ ] 5.2 Verify manually via dev-loop: run with a scratch graph, make edits, quit, confirm `updates.log` is gone/small, `snapshot.loro.prev` exists, and relaunch shows identical content 26 + - [x] 5.1 Register a quit-time `compact_if_log_exceeds(QUIT_COMPACT_THRESHOLD_BYTES)` hook, ignoring failure so quit is never blocked. **Design D5 revised during live verification:** the planned entity-scoped hook (`Context::on_app_quit` + weak `TrawlerApp` handle) never fires on Windows — the app quits *because* the last window closed, which drops the entity before quit observers run, and the dead weak handle is silently skipped. Implemented instead as an App-level `gpui::App::on_app_quit` owning an `Rc<GraphStorage>` clone (`TrawlerApp.storage` became `Rc<GraphStorage>`) 27 + - [x] 5.2 Verified live via dev-loop on a scratch fixture graph, both directions: sub-threshold quit leaves the log untouched (no `.prev`, snapshot not rewritten); a 70KB log on graceful close compacted to a 21KB snapshot with `snapshot.loro.prev` retained and `updates.log` removed; relaunch showed all content intact (fixture pages, typed lines, markers). Side finding filed as a separate task: devtools type/enter streams stall after ~10–100 splits per session (app/editor bug, unrelated to compaction) 28 28 29 29 ## 6. Verification and docs 30 30 31 - - [ ] 6.1 `cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings` and `cargo test --workspace` pass 32 - - [ ] 6.2 Update README "Graph directory format": describe the two automatic triggers (replacing the compaction-only-in-tests note) and document `snapshot.loro.prev` as a manual recovery fallback with its bounded-gap caveat 31 + - [x] 6.1 `cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings` (plus devtools feature) and `cargo test --workspace` pass 32 + - [x] 6.2 README "Graph directory format": describes the two automatic triggers, `snapshot.loro.prev` as a manual recovery fallback with its bounded-gap caveat, and the batched-import note
