2f2f6e2774 fix(db): bound every statement and the #p mention scan (#8461)
## Problem

An agent `#p` + `#h` + `since` REQ (the `require_mention` subscription
in `buzz-acp`) ran for over 45 minutes on a production writer and held
`AccessShare` on every `events` partition. There were two causes:

1. **The mention side of the `#p` join was unbounded.**
`build_query_events_sql` joined `event_mentions` on `(community_id,
event_id)` only. The planner picked a nested loop whose outer side was
every mention of the pubkey, ever, and whose inner side range-scanned
the channel index from `since` on each partition. Cost ≈ total mentions
× channel rows since `since`.
2. **Nothing cancelled it.** The writer `statement_timeout` defaulted to
`0`. Only `#e` reads had a deadline (the 20s cap from #7854), and
read-replica sessions had none at all.

`pg_stat_statements` shows this shape has a multi-thousand-second max
going back months, so it is chronic and was not introduced by a recent
change.

## Change

**`#p` mention bound** (`store/event.rs`, `push_mention_join`, shared by
the page SELECT and COUNT)
- Join on the full event key, `AND e.created_at = m.event_created_at`.
Mention rows copy the event's `created_at` at insert (migration 0007
already relies on this equality), so the join can prune `events`
partitions by time.
- Repeat `since`/`until` on `m.event_created_at`, so the outer scan is a
range on the existing `idx_event_mentions_pubkey_created`. `until` is a
superset bound for the keyset cursor; the exact `(created_at, id)`
cursor test stays on `e`.
- Repeat `kinds` on `m.event_kind` when the filter has kinds. Every
production mention writer binds the event kind (`insert_mentions` in
`store/runtime/mod.rs`, and the replaceable-event path in
`store/replaceable.rs`, back to the first Postgres schema), and no
migration inserts mention rows, so this drops no rows written by the
relay. Rows imported out of band with a NULL `event_kind` would no
longer match a kinds-filtered `#p` read; a read-only production count on
2026-10-20 found 0 such rows on both production reader databases. The
pushdown makes `idx_event_mentions_pubkey_kind_created` available to the
planner for the `require_mention` kind-9 shape; its use has not been
observed (see below). An E2E fixture with a hand-set NULL `event_kind`
row confirmed the caveat: base returns 8 events, head 7.
- The feed's mentions and needs-action queries (`store/feed.rs`,
`build_mentions_query` / `build_needs_action_query`) join
`event_mentions` the same way, so each joined row probes one `events`
partition instead of all of them. Their `ORDER BY m.event_created_at ...
LIMIT` already kept them from running away; this removes the per-row
cross-partition probe.
- Observed plan (E2E at `9cb6638b1`, before the `kinds` pushdown; 60,000
historical mentions + 2,500 recent decoys, stock planner, `EXPLAIN
(ANALYZE, BUFFERS)` of the captured production SQL): the mention side is
a bounded range on `idx_event_mentions_pubkey_created` (13 rows), then a
hash join with a scan of the recent `events` partition. Base scanned
2,509 recent events and probed `event_mentions_pkey` 2,509 times. Head:
**1.1 ms / 319 shared hits**; base: **8.5 ms / 10,049 shared hits**. Not
measured against the production replica. A fresh `EXPLAIN (ANALYZE,
BUFFERS)` replay at `a7065c367`, after the pushdown, ran on a smaller
fixture where the planner chose a sequential mention scan, so it neither
confirms nor replaces these numbers.

**Reads: 20s deadline on every generic event read**
- `query_events_on` and `count_events_on` always run under the
transaction-local 20s deadline that `#e` reads used
(`fetch_with_read_deadline`, formerly `fetch_with_e_tag_deadline`). It
only tightens: shorter operator or caller caps are kept.
- Read-replica sessions get a 20s session default through
`after_connect`, using the same tighten-only SQL.
- Cost: every generic REQ history read and COUNT now pays BEGIN +
`set_config` + ROLLBACK (three extra round trips; before, only `#e`
reads did). In the local E2E the end-to-end history read was still
faster at head (median 4.1 ms vs 10.2 ms at base, 9 samples each, warm
cache), so the round trips are dominated by the bounded plan; this does
not isolate them or establish production p99. The round trips also
lengthen how long each such read holds its writer connection; that hold
time has not been measured against production pool sizing.
- A replica read cancelled at its deadline (57014) is returned, not
re-run on the writer. Usually the cancel means expensive work the writer
would only repeat. It can also mean the replica waited on a lock only it
holds (a replayed `ACCESS EXCLUSIVE` from primary DDL), when the writer
would have answered quickly; that miss is the accepted price of keeping
runaway reads off the primary. The rationale now lives once on
`DbError::is_statement_cancelled` instead of in a dozen copied comments.
The generic routed reads and `ReadSession` already did this; the eight
routed reads with their own SQL (feed mentions, needs-action and
activity; thread replies; channel window; relay membership; thread
window and its auxiliary scan) now do too. A cancelled auxiliary scan
also keeps its replica session instead of degrading it to the writer for
the rest of the request. Other replica failures (e.g. hot-standby
recovery conflicts) still fall back to the writer.
- Paths with their own tighter `SET LOCAL` (artifact 2–5s, thread window
4s, personal reads, usage 5–15s, serving lease 1.5s) are unchanged.

**Writes: every writer session is bounded**
- The default `statement_timeout` changes from `0` to 120s
(`DEFAULT_STATEMENT_TIMEOUT_MS`).
- `BUZZ_DB_STATEMENT_TIMEOUT_MS` still overrides it. `0` or any value
above 300s installs 300s (`MAX_STATEMENT_TIMEOUT_MS`), so a session can
no longer disable it, and a clamped value logs a `warn!` when the pool
is built. Only the operator-approved, fenced destruction paths below
lift it, per transaction.

**Long-running writer paths, audited**
| Path | Behavior |
|---|---|
| Migrations / schema destruction
(`with_exclusive_schema_destruction_lock`) | Unchanged: these lift lock
and statement timeouts on their own detached connection |
| Partition maintenance | Unchanged: own 5s `statement_timeout` |
| Partition audit (`buzz-admin`) | Unchanged: 30s |
| Community deletion inventory, purge and logical verification
(`inventory_schema` whole-tenant counts, `purge_postgres`
whole-community `DELETE` per table in one tx,
`verify_postgres_logically_deleted` whole-tenant `EXISTS` per table
right after the purge) | Lifted (`statement_timeout = 0`)
transaction-locally by `lift_statement_timeout`, like migrations; lock
and idle timeouts still bound them. Inventory counts each table in its
own lifted transaction, so each table's lock and snapshot are released
as soon as its count finishes, as the autocommit counts did. A cancelled
purge would retry from scratch and eventually block, so a cap here would
turn large-tenant deletion into an operator override |
| Audit appends (`buzz-audit`, audit pool inherits the writer cap) |
Waits on the audit-chain advisory lock. With `BUZZ_DB_LOCK_TIMEOUT_MS=0`
(or at least the statement cap), `statement_timeout` (57014) cancels the
wait instead of `lock_timeout` (55P03). The relay's audit worker now
retries both with the same backoff instead of dropping the entry on
57014; admission refusal stays terminal |

On HTTP routes a statement timeout already maps to the distinct
retryable 503 (`api/mod.rs`, `statement_timeout_maps_to_distinct_503`).
A cancelled REQ fails its history read instead of hanging.

## Tests
- `p_tag_query_bounds_mention_side_by_time` (unit): page and COUNT SQL
carry the `created_at` join and the `since`/`until`/`kinds` mention
bounds, and the bounds are absent when the filter has none.
- `p_tag_read_with_mention_bounds_keeps_results` (Postgres): through the
production mention insert, unbounded, `since`, window and keyset-cursor
reads return exactly the mentioned rows, and COUNT matches. Every bound
sits exactly on a mentioned row's second and the cursor page includes a
same-second sibling after the cursor id, so an off-by-one on either
mention-side bound fails it.
- `plain_read_is_cancelled_at_deadline_when_timeout_disabled` /
`count_events_cancels_at_read_deadline_when_timeout_disabled`
(Postgres): the production `#p` + `#h` + `since` shape and a plain COUNT
are cancelled at 20s with the session timeout disabled. Previously these
covered `#e` only.
- `writer_statement_timeout_is_always_bounded` (unit) and
`session_statement_timeouts_bound_writer_and_reader_sessions`
(Postgres): through `Db::new`, writer sessions install `2min` / `5min`
(for `0` and for 600s) / `45s`, and replica sessions install `20s`.
- `deletion_whole_tenant_stages_outlive_the_writer_statement_timeout`
(Postgres): on a scratch desired-state database with a 500ms writer cap,
the real `inventory_schema`, `purge_postgres` and
`verify_postgres_logically_deleted` each wait behind a held `ACCESS
EXCLUSIVE` lock on `events` for over 1s and still complete, a plain
statement is cancelled (57014), and pooled sessions still read `500ms`
afterwards. A lifted transaction reads `statement_timeout = 0`, so a
bounded lift (e.g. `'300000'`) fails it, as does removing any of the
three `lift_statement_timeout` calls.
- `mentions_query_is_tenant_scoped_and_joins_mentions_by_composite_key`
/
`needs_action_query_is_tenant_scoped_and_joins_mentions_by_composite_key`
(unit): both feed queries carry the `e.created_at = m.event_created_at`
join.
- `replica_statement_cancel_propagates_without_writer_rerun` (Postgres):
with the replica locked past its cap, each of the six routed reads above
returns 57014 instead of the writer's copy. Removing the cancel arm in
any of them fails it.
- `thread_window_statement_cancel_propagates_without_writer_rerun`
(Postgres): a thread-window read parked behind a replica lock and
cancelled (57014; the window's own 1s `lock_timeout` would otherwise
fire first) returns the cancel instead of the unlocked writer's window,
and an auxiliary scan timed out on a replica session returns 57014 and
leaves the session on the replica. Removing either guard fails it.
-
`audit_worker_retries_statement_timeout_until_original_entry_is_appended_once`
(Postgres, `buzz-relay`): the production audit worker, with
`lock_timeout` disabled and a 100ms statement cap, keeps the entry
through repeated 57014 cancels while the chain lock is held and appends
it exactly once after release. Treating only 55P03 as retryable fails
it.
- The existing writer and audit-pool GUC tests now expect `5min` for a
disabled statement timeout.

## After deploy, watch
-
`buzz_db_route_decision{decision="replica",reason="statement_cancelled"}`:
replica reads that now fail instead of falling back to the writer,
including the replica-only lock case above.
- `buzz_db_pool_acquire_wait_seconds` and `buzz_db_pool_waiters` on the
writer pool: every generic REQ history read and COUNT now holds its
connection for three extra round trips.

## Database checklist (`docs/database.md` § Review checklist)

This PR changes schema-dependent `buzz-db` queries (the `#p` join and
its `m.event_kind` pushdown). It does not change the schema.

- **Phase:** none. No schema change, so this is not an expand, backfill
or contract step. Nothing before or after it is required.
- **Triggers, functions, procedures, rules, foreign keys:** none added.
- **Row mutations / backfill:** no migration, and no row is mutated or
backfilled. The one data-shape dependency is mention rows with a NULL
`event_kind`: a kinds-filtered `#p` read no longer matches them (see the
`kinds` bullet under Change). Relay writers always bind `event_kind`, so
only rows imported out of band are affected. A read-only production
count on 2026-10-20 found 0 such rows on both production reader
databases.
- **Contract migration:** N/A.
- **Rule 4 locations:** none touched. No table, index or desired-state
file changes, so no parity test applies. The new bounds use the existing
`idx_event_mentions_pubkey_created` and
`idx_event_mentions_pubkey_kind_created`.
- **Deployed relay vs. new schema:** there is no new schema. The
currently deployed relay and this relay run against the same tables.
- **Lock and statement timeouts:** this PR is about them. Generic reads
get a 20s deadline, replica sessions a 20s default, and writer sessions
a 120s default capped at 300s. Community-deletion transactions lift
`statement_timeout` per transaction; migrations and schema destruction
are unchanged (see "Long-running writer paths, audited"). No index
builds and no operator prebuild step.

## What got simpler
- One read-deadline path instead of an `#e`-only branch in
`query_events_on` and `count_events_on`.
- The `#p` join SQL that was duplicated between SELECT and COUNT now
lives in one `push_mention_join`.
- The deletion tests share one scratch desired-state database helper
instead of an inline copy.
- "Is this query bounded?" now has one answer: yes, unless it runs in a
migration, schema destruction, or community-deletion transaction.

## Identified debt (not in this PR)
- `buzz-acp` re-sends the same filter after a timeout `CLOSED` (no
backoff or narrowing). With the `#p` bound the `require_mention` read
should finish well inside 20s, so this is a follow-up, not a blocker.

60de1db0b8 fix(db): admit fleet sweeps per tenant instead of in-SQL fence predicate (#8318)
## What

Removes every production call to the SQL fence predicate
`community_write_allowed()` from application SQL, so no application
mutation depends on the boolean predicate anymore. This is one
prerequisite for BUZZ-315 part B; #8322 (tolerating absent fence
objects) is a separate one. The triggers and SQL functions stay in this
PR because mixed-version pods still depend on them.

The predicate isn't inlined. It's a VOLATILE plpgsql function that takes
the deletion lock and *then* reads lifecycle state on a fresh snapshot,
and an inline expression would read state from the statement's start
snapshot. A separate earlier check would race deletion. So each sweep
now:

1. reads its candidate community IDs with a plain read, bounded the same
way the original statement was,
2. opens one `AdmittedTx` per community
(`begin_community_sweep_transaction`, a thin wrapper over
`begin_community_write_transaction` that turns an admission refusal into
"skip this tenant"; the four periodic sweeps go through
`sweep_admitted_communities`, which also owns their error handling),
3. runs the original mutation scoped to `community_id = $1` and commits.

| Site | Change |
| --- | --- |
| `runtime/push_enqueue.rs` | Deleted the redundant predicate. This
transaction already calls `guard_transaction`. |
| `store/relay_invite.rs` `reap_expired_relay_invites` | Keeps the
global expiry order and the 1,000-row ceiling. Candidates are
pre-filtered to active tenants so fenced invites can't fill the batch.
Admission is still what authorizes the write. |
| `store/workflow.rs` `prune_scheduled_workflow_fires_before` | Prunes
per admitted community and sums the row counts. |
| `store/channel.rs` `reap_expired_ephemeral_channels` | Archives per
admitted community and returns the committed rows, so the relay still
runs their system and discovery follow-ups. The candidate read has no
lifecycle pre-filter (it has no `LIMIT`, so admission alone decides). |
| `store/event.rs` `backfill_d_tags` | Backfills per admitted community
at startup. |
| `store/push.rs` `claim_due_match_batch_with_loader` | Picks the
earliest due active community, admits it, and claims under the same `FOR
UPDATE OF q SKIP LOCKED` and batch limit. It skips at most 16 tenants
that fence between the read and admission. |
| `store/push.rs` `reap_exhausted_matches` | Reaps per admitted
community. |

**Tenant failures.** The four periodic sweeps (invite reap, workflow
fire prune, channel reap, exhausted match reap) log a warning and
continue when one tenant fails. That tenant's rows are left unmodified
and stay eligible, so the next tick retries them. A tenant error doesn't
abort processing of the other tenants already in the selected candidate
page. Invite cleanup keeps its oldest-first 1,000-row selection, so if
one tenant owns that entire page and its delete keeps failing, tenants
outside the page wait. No persistent tenant-local failure for that
delete is known in the current schema, and base aborted the whole page
on any error. The returned count or rows cover the tenants that
committed. Claim, enqueue and the startup backfill still return the
error to the caller.

**Database outages.** A connection-level error (pool acquire timeout,
closed pool, socket I/O; `DbError::is_connection_unavailable`) isn't
tenant-local, so it stops the periodic sweep at that tenant instead of
moving on. Without this, an outage that began after the candidate read
cost one writer acquire timeout and one warning per remaining tenant,
and invite cleanup runs inside the usage-metrics leader tick. Rows
already committed are still returned, so reaped channels keep their
follow-ups. Remaining tenants retry next tick.

**Known limit (pre-existing, tracked separately):**
- *Claim at a locked head.* `claim_due_match_batch_with_loader` returns
`None` once an admitted tenant claims zero rows. If every due row in the
oldest active tenant is row-locked, younger tenants aren't tried on that
call. Base behaved the same way. This PR doesn't change it.

## Tests

All tests use a one-session fixture (`test_support::admission_fixture`)
with `session_replication_role = replica`, so the trigger backstop is
off and only application admission protects the fenced tenants. The
fixture shadows `community_write_allowed` with a function that raises,
in a per-call `admission_test_<uuid>` schema.

- One test per site: a quiescing tenant's rows are untouched while an
active tenant in the same sweep still progresses.
- Race tests for invite reap, channel reap and claim. These are the
sites where the candidate read already filters out fenced tenants. Each
test holds the tenant's deletion lock, waits until the sweep is blocked
in admission, fences the tenant in that transaction, and asserts its
rows are untouched. The claim test also asserts that a second active
tenant is claimed in the same call.
- `channel_reap_returns_committed_rows_after_earlier_tenant_error` and
`periodic_reaps_continue_after_tenant_error_and_retry_retained_rows`
inject a per-tenant failure. They check that later tenants commit, that
the failed tenant's rows are retained, and that the next call processes
them.
- `fleet_sweep_stops_at_first_unavailable_connection` runs the sweep
helper against a closed pool with three candidates and asserts only the
first is attempted.
`fleet_sweep_returns_committed_results_when_database_drops_mid_page`
(PostgreSQL) commits the first tenant, closes the pool, and asserts the
first tenant's result is returned and the sweep stops at the second of
three candidates.
`connection_unavailable_covers_only_pool_and_io_failures` pins the
classification; the per-tenant failure tests above confirm a
database-raised error still continues.

Falsification, each with the tests failing as expected:

| Mutation | Result |
| --- | --- |
| Original SQL restored at invite sweep, push claim, d-tag backfill |
0/3 pass (`legacy SQL fence predicate called`) |
| `guard_community_write` returns `Ok(())` after taking the lock | race
tests + channel reap test 0/4 pass |
| Per-tenant errors abort the sweep again | 0/2 pass |
| Sweep helper `continue`s instead of stopping on a connection-level
error | `fleet_sweep_stops_at_first_unavailable_connection` and
`fleet_sweep_returns_committed_results_when_database_drops_mid_page`
fail |
| Sweep helper drops already-committed results when it stops (`return
Vec::new()`) |
`fleet_sweep_returns_committed_results_when_database_drops_mid_page`
fails |
| Sweep helper removed from the source-policy chokepoint check |
`serving_table_writes_expose_syntactic_chokepoint_or_guarded_tx_routes`
fails |

The PostgreSQL tests are under `postgres_tests` modules with `#[ignore =
"requires Postgres"]`, which puts them in the `.config/nextest.toml`
PostgreSQL filter. CI evidence is under Verification.

## Verification

CI at head `5d37fbda` ([run
38925996275](https://github.com/block/buzz/actions/runs/38925996275)) is
green. The PostgreSQL job ([job
117062895683](https://github.com/block/buzz/actions/runs/38925996275/job/117062895683))
passed 1017/1017. That includes named PASS lines for all 30
`admission_postgres_tests`,
`fleet_sweep_returns_committed_results_when_database_drops_mid_page`,
and both writer-pool tests listed below. Unit Tests ([job
117058136482](https://github.com/block/buzz/actions/runs/38925996275/job/117058136482))
has PASS lines for
`connection_unavailable_covers_only_pool_and_io_failures` and
`fleet_sweep_stops_at_first_unavailable_connection`.

Local gates ran on a Linux cloud workstation against private PostgreSQL
16 and Redis. The tree was `735170df`, which is this head rebased on
`main` `c0ab789`, so the gates built the merge result.

| Gate | Result |
| --- | --- |
| `cargo fmt --all -- --check` | pass |
| `cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings` | pass |
| `cargo nextest run -p buzz-db --lib --tests` | 185 passed |
| `scripts/test-postgres-test-discovery.sh` | pass |
| PostgreSQL lane for buzz-db (excluding the two writer-pool tests
below) | 530 passed |
| PostgreSQL lanes for buzz-admin, buzz-audit, buzz-deletion,
buzz-push-gateway, buzz-search, buzz-workflow | all pass |
| PostgreSQL lane for buzz-relay | 413/426. The 13
`group_state_postgres_tests` fail with `PoolTimedOut` on unmodified
`main` `c0ab789` too (see below) |
| The three mutations in the falsification table above (`continue` ×2,
`return Vec::new()`) | each fails its target test |

These failures happen only on the workstation, and each one passes in
CI's PostgreSQL job at this head:
- `writer_pool_metrics_stop_after_session_timeout_setup_failure` stalls.
It's an unchanged writer-pool configuration test, and it stalled the
same way at earlier heads.
- The 13 relay `group_state_postgres_tests` fail at the same point,
`ensure community: Sqlx(PoolTimedOut)`, on unmodified `main` `c0ab789`.
This PR doesn't touch `buzz-relay`.

## What got simpler

- No application mutation calls the boolean predicate
`community_write_allowed()` anymore. Dropping the fence objects still
has other dependencies: serving-write lease acquisition calls
`assert_community_write_allowed()` (`store/deletion.rs:3068`), catalog
validation requires both functions (`store/deletion.rs:1195-1198`), and
the triggers and compatibility SQL still use them. Those belong to #8322
and part B, not this PR.
- The claim's `target` CTE is gone, and every sweep uses the same
admission-and-skip helper.
- The four periodic sweeps share one loop (`sweep_admitted_communities`)
for admission, skip, continue-on-tenant-error and stop-on-outage,
instead of four copies of it.
- The source policy treats that helper as a tenant-local chokepoint, so
`backfill_d_tags` no longer needs a reviewed exception.
- The per-tenant loops add code, because each community now gets its own
admitted transaction.

a8fe2b612c feat(db): advance an empty partition catch-all under bounded locks (#7993)
## Summary

Adds bounded, serialized advancement of an empty right-edge partition
catch-all for `events` and `delivery_log`. The repaired catalogs
currently end in an empty catch-all from 2027-01-01, and the merged
manager (#6515) only audits them. Without this change, January writes
land in the catch-all, after which only an operator can move them.

When `BUZZ_PARTITION_MANAGER_ADVANCE_ENABLED=true`, each relay keeps six
dedicated monthlies after the current month. It does this at startup and
on every audit interval by replacing the empty catch-all with canonical
monthlies and a new canonical `<table>_p_future` after the horizon. From
today's catalogs the first run creates January–March 2027 and moves the
catch-all to April 2027.

## Safety design

- **Refuse before locking.** The following return `operator_required`
without taking any table lock:
  - a populated catch-all, or one whose occupancy is unknown;
- a catch-all with child-only triggers, which the replacements would not
inherit;
  - a misaligned bound;
  - a `DEFAULT`, anomalous or pending-detach child;
  - a name collision.
- **One winner.** A schema-scoped `pg_try_advisory_xact_lock` is taken
before any DDL. Losers report `skipped_locked` and never issue DDL. The
winner re-plans from a fresh audit before taking any table lock and
checks for collisions. A runner that lost a race therefore sees the
committed layout as a no-op, not as colliding names.
- **Writer lock order.** First `ONLY` the parent is locked `ACCESS
EXCLUSIVE` under a 2 s `lock_timeout`. Then each foreign-key counterpart
(today only `communities`) is locked in OID order `SHARE ROW EXCLUSIVE
NOWAIT`, then the catch-all `NOWAIT`.
- The counterparts are read again once the parent is locked, and that
set is the one locked. Any FK DDL on or to the parent conflicts with the
parent lock, so the set can't change after that. An FK committed while
maintenance waited is therefore locked `NOWAIT` too, so attaching never
waits on it under the parent lock. The read before the lock remains as a
cheap early refusal.
- This is the order an insert takes locks (parent, then the FK check on
`communities`), so maintenance cannot deadlock with ingest. The internal
manual runbook used to lock `communities` first; it now uses this order
too.
- `SHARE ROW EXCLUSIVE` is the strongest lock the DDL takes on
`communities`; measured on PG 16 and 17, the catch-all `DROP` takes
none, as long as the catch-all's only foreign keys are those inherited
from the parent. A catch-all with its own foreign key, or one that
another table's foreign key references, is refused: once before any
lock, and again after the catch-all lock, where the check is
authoritative. Readers and other writers' `FOR KEY SHARE` checks
proceed. A concurrent `communities` writer makes the run fail fast with
`lock_timeout`.
  - A `40P01` deadlock victim is also reported as `lock_timeout`.
- Parents that are referenced by a foreign key, or that reference an
inherited table, are refused, including when such a key commits while
maintenance waits on the parent.
- **Re-plan under lock.** The catalog is re-audited under those locks.
The transaction proceeds only if the plan is unchanged.
- **Bounded.** `statement_timeout` 5 s,
`idle_in_transaction_session_timeout` 5 s, and a 10 s client deadline
per table. A deadline-abandoned connection is closed, never returned to
the pool, and the server rolls back anything uncommitted. If the
deadline fires after `COMMIT` was sent, the change may have landed; the
next audit reports the truth. The orphaned backend keeps its locks until
its in-flight statement ends, at most `statement_timeout`.
- **Verify before commit.** The changed catalog is re-audited inside the
transaction for bounds, canonical kinds, trigger parity and catch-all
emptiness, and serving safety must not regress. It also checks that
every new child has valid, ready clones of each parent index and
validated clones of each PK/unique/FK constraint.

- **Audits tolerate a concurrent advance.** Catalog rows come from the
statement snapshot, but `pg_get_expr` renders from current catalog
state. So an audit that overlaps another relay's `DROP` of a catch-all
can see a partition that no longer exists. The read-only audit detects
this (a NULL bound, or `42P01` from the emptiness probe) and retries up
to twice with a fresh snapshot.
- **Fail fast on audit probes.** If another relay's audit is probing the
catch-all's emptiness, the catch-all `NOWAIT` lock fails and the run
reports `lock_timeout`. The parent lock is then released immediately,
and the next runner or interval completes the advance.

Uncovered-month creation (`BUZZ_PARTITION_MANAGER_CREATE_ENABLED`,
default `true`) now runs through the same locked transaction, replacing
the unlocked per-month `CREATE`. That flag remains the kill switch for
all automatic partition DDL: with it off, advancement is disabled too.
With advancement disabled (the default) the periodic loop stays
read-only and startup behaves as before, apart from the locking.

A runner that planned DDL always re-audits before returning, even when a
peer did the work, so it never reports the pre-maintenance layout. A
serialized re-plan that finds only disabled work reports
`skipped_disabled`.

## Behavior changes

- The relay audit horizon and the `buzz-admin partition-audit` default
are now 6 months (`PARTITION_MANAGER_MONTHS_AHEAD`), up from 3. Until
advancement is enabled, months already covered by the catch-all make
`degraded` true. That correctly reports a runway under six months.
- New metric `buzz_partition_maintenance_runs_total{table,outcome}` with
outcomes `noop | skipped_disabled | created | advanced | skipped_locked
| operator_required | lock_timeout | deadline | error`.
`buzz_partition_create_attempts_total` keeps its per-month `created |
skipped_covered | error` labels. `error` there still means a DDL or
collision failure; `lock_timeout` and `deadline` runs add nothing to it,
and only `buzz_partition_maintenance_runs_total` records them.
- `ensure_future_partitions` (free function and `Db` method) is removed;
`maintain_partitions` is the one entry point.
- New advisory-lock label `lock_type="partition_maintenance"`.

## Rollout

Enable `BUZZ_PARTITION_MANAGER_ADVANCE_ENABLED` per environment in BPCI:
`bb-block-staging` first, then production. The staging canary proves a
real advance because the six-month horizon already extends past January.
Fallback: rerun the internal manual runbook, which uses the same
parent-first lock order as of 2026-10-05. It keeps `ACCESS EXCLUSIVE` on
the counterparts, because its detach/attach can drop FK triggers on
them.

## Testing

- `cargo test -p buzz-db --lib partition`: 17 unit tests. The 10 new
ones cover:
- plans: repaired layout, policy gating, no-op, refusal states including
child-only triggers, December→January;
  - the create kill switch also stopping advancement;
  - the month cap at exactly 120;
- per-month metric outcomes for transient failures versus DDL failures;
  - the mid-audit-drop retry classifier.
- `cargo test -p buzz-db --lib partition -- --ignored` (PostgreSQL 17):
48/48 on 9 consecutive runs, including 17 new tests:
  - advance to the canonical layout, with routing and idempotent rerun;
  - replacing a canonically named catch-all in one transaction;
  - populated catch-all refused in under 1 s while the parent is locked;
  - a `communities` writer making the run fail fast and roll back;
  - a `communities` reader not blocking the advance;
- an in-flight insert's FK check, and its write to `communities`, behind
queued maintenance completing without a deadlock;
- a foreign key committed while maintenance waits on the parent, with a
writer on its new counterpart, failing fast as `lock_timeout` on that
table instead of waiting under the parent lock;
- a foreign key referencing `events`, committed while maintenance waits
on the parent, being refused under the parent lock;
- a catch-all's own foreign key, or a foreign key referencing it, being
refused before the parent lock with the key intact, and a catch-all key
committed while maintenance waits on the parent being refused after the
catch-all lock;
  - a `40P01` deadlock victim being classified as `lock_timeout`;
  - parent contention timing out without blocking the other table;
  - held advisory lock skipping with no DDL;
- concurrent runners converging, with at most a transient
`lock_timeout`;
- a stale audit after a concurrent advance being a no-op, and the losing
runner returning the committed layout;
- a re-plan that finds only disabled work reporting `skipped_disabled`;
  - an audit retrying when a listed partition is dropped mid-audit;
  - a catch-all with a child-only trigger being refused;
- client deadline abandoning the attempt and closing the session (scoped
to the test's own blocked backend);
  - catch-all name collision;
  - incoming foreign key refused.
- Mutation checks:
- restoring the old counterpart-first `ACCESS EXCLUSIVE` order fails the
reader test (`lock_timeout`) and the writer test (a ~1 s deadlock wait);
- dropping `NOWAIT` from the counterpart lock, or allowing a populated
catch-all, fails the matching tests;
- removing the parent-locked counterpart re-read fails the committed-FK
tests (the parent is held 2.06 s waiting on the new counterpart), and
ignoring its refusal fails the referencing-FK test;
- locking the counterparts `SHARE ROW EXCLUSIVE` before the parent fails
the writer test;
  - removing either catch-all foreign-key check fails its test.
- Full PostgreSQL lane: 716/718. Both failures are timing-sensitive
tests outside partition code, and each passes 3/3 when run alone:
  - `hanging_redis_peer_times_out_before_the_health_listener_binds`;
-
`readiness_check_cancellation_balances_waiter_and_inflight_connection`.
- `cargo clippy -p buzz-db -p buzz-relay -p buzz-admin --all-targets -D
warnings` and `cargo fmt --check` are clean.

9b1c4f98e2 🤖 perf: bound long-thread aux reads and make query deadlines terminal (#7854)
Long threads (over ~100 replies) time out in desktop. The aux hop that
loads reactions and other e-tag references builds its filter as one
`tags @> …` term per id, joined with `OR`. Past about 100 ids the
planner switches to walking each partition's primary key backward,
expecting to stop early. When few rows actually match, it scans the
whole community. With a dirty GIN pending list, a 188-reply thread never
finishes.

### What changes

- **Set-based e-tag reads (`buzz-db`).** The aux e-tag query now puts
the id set behind a `MATERIALIZED` CTE and matches with `ANY`. Each
e-tag read also runs under a transaction-local `statement_timeout` of 20
s.
- **Terminal timeout contract (`buzz-relay`).** When a read hits the
deadline, the client gets a terminal timeout (`CLOSED` for REQ, the
timeout error for COUNT and search), not a retryable failure.
- **Subscription lifecycle (`buzz-relay`).** The per-connection
subscription map lock is now the lifecycle lock. Claims, replacement,
client `CLOSE`, owner-checked timeout and search cleanup, revoke, and
connection teardown all change the map, the registry, topic refcounts
and terminal frames while holding it. As a result, a timed-out
subscription's `CLOSED` goes out before any replacement with the same id
can claim it, and claims made after teardown are refused.
- **Dropped terminal frame disconnects (`buzz-relay`).** If the `CLOSED`
for a retired subscription (owner-checked timeout or channel eviction)
can't be queued, the relay cancels the connection instead of leaving the
client holding a subscription that will never receive fan-out. A
client-initiated `CLOSE` ack is exempt.
- **COUNT under the same deadline (`buzz-db`).** The fast COUNT path
runs e-tag counts under the same transaction-local 20 s cap as SELECT,
so WS COUNT and HTTP `/count` produce the terminal timeout too.
- **Replica reads surface the deadline (`buzz-db`).** When a
replica-routed read is cancelled by `statement_timeout` (SQLSTATE
`57014`), the error is returned instead of re-running the query on the
writer, which would run the same slow statement. Other replica errors
still fall back to the writer.
`PLANS/REPLICA_FULL_READ_ROUTING_DESIGN.md` records the exception.
- **Deadline handling (desktop).** Only the relay's `query timed out`
counts as a query deadline. A client-side `request timed out` stays
retryable. For one-shot reads a deadline is terminal: the global query
retry (budget 1), thread-replies retry and reaction hydration don't
re-send the same slow query. Reaction ids held back by a deadline are
released when the channel is opened again, so reopening retries them
while same-channel re-renders don't. Live subscriptions, in both the
renderer and the native archive-sync socket, keep treating a deadline
`CLOSED` as transient: they back off and resubscribe with the same
filter instead of being dropped.
- **Deadline handling (mobile).** Mobile recognizes the deadline on both
transports: HTTP `503 {"error":"query timed out"}` and the WS `CLOSED`
reason.
- The root `ProviderScope` retry policy returns no retry for deadline
errors and keeps Riverpod's default backoff for everything else.
  - Background thread-summary recounts don't retry a deadline.
- Forum posts polling pauses while the last load settled on a deadline;
reopening the forum retries.
- A channel's newest-window load surfaces a deadline instead of falling
back to legacy WS history, and the channel list's batched queries return
"unavailable" on a deadline instead of fanning out to per-filter
fallbacks. An unavailable batch is not treated as empty. Known
last-message timestamps and unread state are kept, and unread catch-up
moves `lastMessageAt` forward (never backward) the same way live events
do, so a cold start with no known timestamp still gets one.
- A live subscription that gets a deadline `CLOSED` backs off and
resubscribes with the same filter. History requests still fail on it.
- Settled load failures show a Retry control, matching desktop's
thread-replies error card: a shared `LoadErrorView` on the channel
timeline, forum thread and forum posts list, and an icon button beside
the thread replies summary. While the thread query has no value, the
thread page shows the route snapshot plus live, cached and optimistic
replies, with the loading or error status still visible.
- Other re-sends (reconnect, foreground resume, live events, the unread
backstop, scroll) are not suppressed; each is bounded by the relay's 20
s statement deadline.
- **Long-thread seeder.** `just seed-long-thread [replies]` posts one
thread (default 187 replies) with some reactions to the local dev relay,
for reproducing long threads in the apps. It uses a throwaway key,
refuses non-loopback relays and ignores ambient `BUZZ_*` credentials.
Writes are paced to fit the stock relay rate limit.

**Lifecycle concurrency.** The lock serializes one connection's
subscription changes. Other connections can still be delayed by pressure
on the shared pubsub command queue, and by serial eviction loops waiting
behind a blocked connection. This PR does not claim strict isolation
between connections.

**Recovery vs. load.** Clients stop automatic retries of the same
one-shot read, but they don't remember deadlines across other triggers:
reconnect, resume, live events and the unread backstop can each send the
read again later, bounded by the 20 s statement deadline. A live
subscription that hits the deadline resubscribes with its original
filter under the existing 1–30 s backoff, and against a filter that
keeps timing out it retries at the 30 s cap indefinitely, so the worst
case is one bounded query per subscription every 30 s. `since` is
deliberately not advanced to now on resubscribe, because that would skip
events missed while the subscription was closed. Unchanged from `main`:
when mobile's channel history sync fails with cached messages available,
the cached messages are shown without the error or Retry control.


### Benchmark

Local reproduction on an isolated bench stack (not committed):
- PG16, migrations applied, one 188-reply thread plus 5M background
events in the same community.
- Each request replays the desktop thread-replies filter through the
relay, with `include_aux` on. Times are total ms for 3 runs, with a 60 s
client cap.

GIN pending-list state is controlled with `VACUUM` (clean) or by
refilling the pending list (dirty), and recorded per partition with
`pgstatginindex`. Dirty runs held 402 pending pages on every partition's
tags index at the start and end of each matrix. Clean runs held 0–1
pages (relay startup writes).

| build | GIN pending state | limit 10 | 50 | 100 | 200 (188 ids) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| `main` | clean | 26 / 16 / 13 | 56 / 51 / 52 | 92 / 93 / 95 | 662 /
639 / 641 |
| `main` | dirty | 315 / 298 / 327 | 22141 / 15888 / 16769 | 28992 /
27819 / 28080 | timeout ×3 (>60 s) |
| this PR | clean | 35 / 21 / 14 | 57 / 49 / 48 | 82 / 80 / 75 | 153 /
150 / 135 |
| this PR | dirty | 290 / 254 / 251 | 1257 / 1204 / 1206 | 2432 / 2378 /
2382 | 4333 / 4706 / 5104 |

Baseline `origin/main` `b37e47721`; this PR at `5f2650f5f`, whose e-tag
read builders are identical to the current head. At head `1ad81d868`
against `origin/main` `15d44dcce`, limit 200 measured 145–179 ms clean
(`main` 683–715) and 4.41–4.51 s dirty (`main` timeout ×3).

Every completed cell returns the same signed event set: 209 events, 187
replies at limit 200. With `include_aux` off, every cell is ≤66 ms. The
thread-window loader (`select_aux`) is unchanged from `main`, and its
timings and captured plans match `main`'s.

Actual aux-hop statements captured from each relay binary with
`auto_explain` (analyze + buffers), execution ms:

| build | clean, 100 ids | clean, 188 ids | dirty, 100 ids | dirty, 188
ids |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| `main` (N-way `OR`) | 40 | 298 | 28785 | 62892 |
| this PR (`MATERIALIZED` fence + `ANY`) | 23 | 45 | 1992 | 3539 |

**What the fence changes**
- On `main`, the planner combines `ORDER BY created_at … LIMIT` with an
overestimated match count and walks each partition's primary key
backward, expecting to stop early. With few real matches it scans the
whole community: the dirty 188-id statement touches ~4.9M shared buffers
on `main` vs ~0.6M with the fence.
- The fence prevents that early-stop plan. Across the measured cases
(1–188 ids, both pending states), the planner used the GIN tags index.
The fence doesn't force GIN in general; a broad enough filter could
still get a different plan.

**Tradeoff:** the fence materializes every match before sorting. In this
bench small limits stayed within run-to-run noise of `main`. A single
hot id (5,000 reactions, limit 100) measured 30–34 ms unfenced vs 35 ms
fenced.

**Deadline:** each e-tag read (SELECT and COUNT) runs under a
transaction-local `statement_timeout` of 20 s. It only tightens: a
shorter operator timeout (`BUZZ_DB_STATEMENT_TIMEOUT_MS`) is kept. It's
a per-statement limit, not a per-request one, so a request that runs
several pages or hops can take longer than 20 s in total. The benchmark
does not force the deadline.

5a349db91c feat(relay): add opt-in newest-first thread windows (#7823)
## Summary

Add an opt-in, newest-first thread window to the authenticated HTTP
query path.

A filter with `thread_window: true` returns:

- reply rows ordered by `(created_at DESC, id ASC)` with an exact
composite cursor;
- optional bounded reactions, edits, deletions, and delete-of-aux
closure;
- one relay-signed `kind:39007` bounds event bound to the normalized
host, authenticated reader, channel, root, request cursor, kinds, depth,
limit, and aux choice.

Filters without the flag keep the existing oldest-first thread behavior.
Channel windows and `kind:39006` are unchanged. No client opts into this
mode in this PR.

### Why extend NIP-CW

NIP-CW already defines relay-computed, cursor-paged conversation views
over extended NIP-01 filters. Thread windows use the same protocol
ideas: ordinary signed rows, composite keyset pagination, optional aux
closure, and relay-signed bounds. Adding a thread mode keeps those
related wire contracts together instead of creating a second NIP with
duplicated terminology and compatibility rules.

Extending a draft, optional NIP with an additive mode is normal protocol
evolution. Existing fields and meanings are not reinterpreted:

- `top_level: true` remains channel mode;
- `kind:39006` remains channel-window bounds;
- `thread_window: true` selects the new mode;
- `kind:39007` has a distinct identity and root/request binding;
- extension-unaware clients never send the selector;
- legacy thread queries remain unchanged.

NIP-CW documents only the wire contract and relay semantics. Database
plans, replica internals, and rollout procedures remain implementation
concerns.

### Why thread windows use independent modules

The implementation deliberately keeps `thread_window.rs` separate in
`buzz-core`, `buzz-db`, and `buzz-relay` rather than adding branches
throughout the existing channel-window path.

The modes share pagination concepts, but their invariants differ:

- channel mode selects top-level rows; thread mode requires one root and
depths `1..=depth_limit`;
- thread mode accepts only conversation row kinds and rejects
unknown/conflicting fields;
- thread bounds bind the root and authenticated reader because
cross-channel aux visibility can differ by reader;
- thread aux includes the root and requires complete two-hop closure;
- thread mode refreshes writer authorization before selection and before
signing;
- historical cursor pages may use a proved replica transaction, but
fallback must restart both aux hops on the writer;
- legacy thread traversal is oldest-first and must not inherit
descending cursor semantics.

Forcing these rules into channel-window code would create a mode flag
across parsing, SQL predicates, bounds construction, authorization,
replica fallback, and tests. That abstraction would not remove
complexity. It would distribute it. Separate modules keep each contract
local and leave the established channel and legacy paths untouched.

### Technical design

- Strict request parsing normalizes UUIDs, event IDs, kinds, defaults,
and cursors before computing the response binding.
- SQL applies community, root, channel, depth, kind, deletion, and
cursor predicates before `limit + 1`.
- Ordered metadata scanning plus exact event-key lookup avoids the
stale-statistics plan that previously exceeded the four-second SQL
budget on a 10k-reply thread.
- Aux work is bounded by target batches, query count, raw candidate
count, response bytes, SQL timeouts, and one shared HTTP deadline.
- Fresh authorization-set comparison catches both grants and revocations
during closure. The relay returns retryable `503` rather than signing an
incomplete page.
- Replica failure permanently degrades the request to the writer and
restarts closure from its original targets without resetting budgets.
- Migration `0049_thread_window_index.sql` adds the mixed-direction
index used by newest-first scans. It validates a prebuilt index and
bounds startup lock/build time.

### Tradeoffs

- The stale-statistics-safe plan is intentionally less clever. Measured
warm 100k deep-cursor execution increased from roughly 0.30 ms to 4.80
ms, plus about 8 ms planning, in exchange for avoiding a reproduced
multi-second timeout after rapid 10k-thread insertion.
- Bounds are authoritative only for the served page. There is no
cross-page snapshot guarantee, and replica insertion coverage does not
imply latest edit/deletion/aux visibility.
- Strict parsing rejects unsupported constraints instead of silently
serving a different row set.
- Required aux closure fails closed. The relay does not omit aux and
sign plausible-but-incomplete bounds.
- This PR ships relay capability only. Client rendering, retry UX,
live-history overlap, and compatibility fallback remain separate work.

### Related issue

No existing issue found. This work follows the thread-loading design and
review discussion.

### Testing

- `cargo test -p buzz-core`: 258 unit tests and 2 doctests passed.
- `cargo check --workspace --all-targets`: passed at the rebased
implementation head.
- `cargo test -p buzz-db`: 131 non-PostgreSQL tests passed; 275
infrastructure tests were ignored as declared.
- Focused PostgreSQL migration/runtime regressions: 3/3 passed against
an isolated PostgreSQL container, including both corrected
migration-ledger tests.
- `cargo fmt --all --check`: passed.
- Pre-rebase feature validation passed 398/398 PostgreSQL tests,
signed-wire multi-tenant/auth/pagination/aux/revocation probes, clean
Compose boot/reboot, and full core tests.
- Independent HA validation exercised three relay pods and a physical
PostgreSQL standby on the same runtime logic before the final
documentation-only cleanup.
- Independent final-delta review confirmed exactly two changed files,
byte-identical executable migration SQL after comments/diagnostic
normalization, matching prebuild/catalog/recovery instructions, and `git
diff --check`; no runtime receipts were relabeled to the new SHA.
- The pre-push hook ran repository checks but its Rust unit lane exited
100 without exposing an individual failed test in the captured
multiplexed output. The independently run affected-package checks above
passed; current-head repository CI remains required.

Known unrelated baseline behavior remains: the mesh-demo echo test can
return 504, and same-second archive → unarchive can deduplicate its
membership notification. Neither path is changed here.

Wes
6a86531ac9 feat(relay): add atomic complete read-state snapshots (#7572)
Opened by Brain on behalf of Wes (GitHub: wesbillman).

## Summary

Add an opt-in, host-scoped completeness primitive for NIP-RS read-state
clients. Ordinary query arrays and WebSocket behavior remain unchanged.

- Advertise a version-1 `read_state_snapshot` capability in NIP-11 only
when the request resolves a community.
- Accept exactly one self-author kind-30078 snapshot filter on
authenticated `POST /query`, after the existing admission, replay and
membership gates.
- Read all retained, nondeleted self-author kind-30078 coordinates from
the writer at one SQL-statement MVCC cut—including unrelated application
coordinates and events without a read-state tag.
- Return a complete versioned envelope bound to community, signer and a
content-identity hash. Reject malformed contracts,
reconstruction/signature/storage failures and whole-request overflow;
never return a truncated complete response.
- Bound snapshots at 4,096 events and 8 MiB of compact encoded
event-array bytes, advertised as `max_event_array_bytes`; envelope
metadata is additional. Retain the separate stored-payload preflight
budget.

## Safety and scope

This is point-in-time enumeration, **not** a live freshness guarantee,
cursor, CAS token, cross-relay transaction, or unread total. NIP-RS now
explicitly requires fresh complete enumeration from every write relay
before each override action, canonical publication, carry-forward or
deletion. It does not enable synchronized manual-unread overrides in any
client. No schema migration or deployment is included.

## Validation

Executed against the source committed as
`1fd5a5e0c0d893c1259386885517c0c44ae7630f`:

- Four real-router/PostgreSQL snapshot cases: beyond-page-cap
enumeration and overflow; corruption/storage failure; production
payload-bound NIP-98, Redis replay guard and membership enforcement;
host discovery/scope/strict request shape.
- Two database cases: replacement during preflight preserves a single
statement cut; encoded-byte overflow and writer-not-replica routing. The
cluster-wide probe uses the required `cluster_global_` serialization
prefix.
- Production-call-site mutations killed for dispatch, strict filter
validation, discovery tenant, snapshot tenant, encoded-byte guard,
membership enforcement and replay enforcement; isolated mutation tree
restored.
- Both affected crates pass all-target Clippy; formatting, differential
file-size and repository PostgreSQL test-discovery checks pass.
- Normal pre-push gates pass without bypass: branch skew, push-head
scope, file size, Rust unit lanes and desktop Tauri checks.
- Independent read-only review by Pinky found no remaining relay blocker
at this commit. The execution/mutation results above were run by Brain,
not duplicated by the reviewer.

Hosted CI and maintainer review remain separate gates. No production
traffic or deployment was used for these fixture tests.

## Review repair (2026-09-21)

Carl updated this existing branch to
`2f9c9b11266c24947412cf28cefae4e96e7167b7`, merging main
`5079c770fe30bb3d8204822ce6c2431eacac6d4b` without rewriting published
history.

- Resolved the DB export conflict, preserving both snapshot and
storage-accounting exports.
- Addressed the blocking review using its accepted alternative: rename
`max_bytes` to `max_event_array_bytes` and explicitly document that
success-envelope metadata is outside the array budget. No auth, query,
runtime-limit, or client-behavior redesign.
- Added a PostgreSQL/router regression proving discovery, exact
8,388,608-byte array success with a larger envelope, and one-byte-over
rejection (413, no partial complete response).

Exact-head validation: all seven snapshot PostgreSQL/router tests passed
in an isolated local database; both affected crates passed all-target
Clippy; mandatory pre-commit/pre-push gates passed without bypass (Rust
unit lanes, Tauri default/mesh Clippy and tests, differential file size,
branch-skew/ref checks). Reverting only the descriptor rename made the
new regression fail before the final commit. Independent bounded
source-delta review by Mordecai found no blockers; execution was Carl's.

A broader `cargo test -p buzz-db -p buzz-relay --all-targets` run on the
merged candidate passed 131 DB tests and 1,057 relay tests, then
encountered the same unrelated
`mesh_demo::demo_join_forwarded_arm_round_trips_echo` 504 recorded in
the prior review. Full repository `just ci` / `just test` were not rerun
locally; hosted CI remains a separate gate. No deployment or production
traffic was exercised.

86b9142a09 refactor(relay): NIP-98 admin auth with Operator/Moderator roles and NIP-11 discovery (#3777)
Adds authenticated, role-based moderation to the relay admin API. On
`main` the admin API is read-only and gated only by `Host`/`Origin`
matching; this branch adds NIP-98 authentication, a two-tier
Operator/Moderator principal model, mutation and staffing endpoints, and
NIP-11 auto-discovery so clients never type the admin URL by hand.

## Authentication (`BUZZ_ADMIN_AUTH`)

`BUZZ_ADMIN_AUTH` accepts `nip98` or `disabled`. Leaving it unset
defaults to `nip98` (fail-secure). Configuration fails closed: any other
value aborts startup, while a lingering `BUZZ_ADMIN_TOKEN` is ignored
with a startup warning — token (bearer) authentication is not supported.
`Host`/`Origin` matching is retained in every mode as defense-in-depth.

- **`nip98`** (default) — per-request signed NIP-98 (kind 27235) events,
resolved to an Operator or Moderator principal with per-person
attribution and individual revocability. Read-write per resolved
principal.
- **`disabled`** — no credential; relies entirely on network-layer
controls (reverse proxy, VPN, firewall) and logs a `WARN` on every boot.
Always read-only: `authorize()` resolves no principal, so mutation and
staffing routes always `403`.

## Roles

Buzz has two independent authority axes after this change.
**Relay-level** roles (new here) are deployment-global: they act across
every community on the relay, through the admin API. **Community-level**
roles (pre-existing, unchanged by this PR) are tenant-scoped: they act
inside one community, through signed Nostr moderation commands.

### Relay level (new)

| Role | Description |
|---|---|
| **Operator** | Full control of the deployment's moderation surface:
read all reports, feedback, and attachments across every community;
resolve reports with enforcement (`delete`/`kick`/`ban`/`timeout`) or
decisions (`dismiss`/`escalate`); reopen and cancel; update feedback
status; and manage the Operator/Moderator roster via the staffing
endpoints. |
| **Moderator** | Day-to-day triage: everything an Operator can do
except staffing — cannot view or change the roster. |

How a pubkey acquires a relay role (resolution order; config always
outranks DB):

1. Listed in `RELAY_OPERATOR_PUBKEYS` → **Operator** (source `config`)
2. Equals `RELAY_OWNER_PUBKEY` while `RELAY_OPERATOR_PUBKEYS` is empty →
**Operator** (source `owner_fallback`, a break-glass grant for
self-hosters that deactivates once any operator is configured)
3. Row in the `relay_operators` table → **Operator** or **Moderator**
(source `db`, managed via the staffing endpoints)
4. No match → `403`

### Community level (pre-existing, unchanged)

| Role | Description |
|---|---|
| **Owner** (community) | Full authority within their community: every
moderation action (delete, kick, ban/unban, timeout/untimeout, resolve
reports, view queue) plus member, role, and invite management. No guard
rails. |
| **Admin** (community) | Same community-wide moderation capabilities as
owner, except an admin cannot ban or time out the owner or a fellow
admin — only the owner may action an admin. Manages members and invites;
only the owner grants the admin role. |
| **Member** (community) | Standard participant; no moderation
capability. |
| **Owner / Admin** (channel) | Channel-local authority only: delete
messages and kick users within their own channel. |
| **Member / Guest / Bot** (channel) | No moderation authority. |

There is no community-level Moderator tier in v1; relay-level Moderator
is the only role by that name.

## Escalation scoping

The operator report queue is an escalation backstop, not the community's
day-to-day triage surface (per `VISION_MODERATION`, the severe class is
the platform's to review rather than the community's). Two rules enforce
that:

- **Escalated-by-default listing.** `GET /reports` with no `status`
parameter returns only `escalated` reports. An explicit
`status=<open|resolved|dismissed|escalated>` filter is always honored as
given, and full visibility across every status stays available for
platform-safety and legal review via `scope=all` (which lists reports
regardless of status). `scope` accepts only `all` and is ignored when an
explicit `status` is present.
- **Auto-escalated `illegal` reports.** Member reports whose category is
`illegal` are ingested with `status=escalated` rather than `open`, so
the severe class reaches the operator backstop without waiting for a
community admin to forward it. Every other category still lands `open`.
Auto-escalation only sets the queue status — it records no moderator
decision and stamps no resolver, so an auto-escalated report is
indistinguishable downstream from an admin-escalated one: the reopen
route returns it to `open` on the same terms, keyed only on status,
never on how the report became escalated.

## Principal resolution and NIP-98 admission

`resolve_admin_principal()` returns `AdminPrincipal { pubkey, role,
source }` per the resolution order above; `None` never falls through as
a role. Admission is ordered so the replay guard is a privilege, not a
public surface: signature/URL/method/payload-hash verification first,
roster check second, and only then is the deployment-scoped replay id
atomically consumed — a validly-signing but unrostered key never
allocates a replay slot. Redis failure fails closed.

## Report resolution, recovery, and enforcement provenance

`POST /reports/{id}/resolve` is a crash-safe enforcement state machine:
decision-only outcomes (`dismiss`/`escalate`) are a single
CAS-plus-audit transaction; enforcement
(`delete`/`kick`/`ban`/`timeout`) claims the report
(`open`→`processing`), runs the durable mutation, then finalizes — a
re-drive resumes at the step marker and converges to exactly-one
enforcement, fenced by a lease and an outbox claim token.

Person-directed enforcement on an `event`-kind report derives its target
from the stored event's author (server-owned truth, never the reporter's
`p` tag) via a single `derive_enforcement_target` shared by the HTTP
driver and the recovery worker. If the reported event was purged before
its author could be read, person-directed actions are rejected pre-claim
and the report stays `open`; `delete` needs only the event id and is
exempt.

`GET /reports/{id}` and the resolve response carry an `activeAction`
field surfacing the enforcement that actually executed — a report
dismissed after a reopen still reports the ban that ran. `POST
/reports/{id}/reopen` returns a terminal report to `open` (idempotent on
`requestId`). `POST /reports/{id}/cancel` is the sole recovery path for
a pre-mutation `failed` action, attributed via
`relay_admin_actions.cancelled_by`.

## Feedback

`GET /feedback` and `/feedback/{id}` survive a tenant purge: provenance
columns are severed to `NULL` rather than cascade-deleted, and the
attachment path fails closed to `404` on a severed row. `PATCH
/feedback/{id}` updates lifecycle `status`
(`new`/`reviewed`/`archived`).

## Staffing and probe

`GET/PUT/DELETE /operators/{pubkey}` are Operator-only; mutating a
config-backed pubkey returns `409 Conflict`. `GET /operators` returns
the union of config and DB principals with per-entry `source`. `GET
/probe` reports auth mode, role, source, `canAct`, and `canStaff` for
the desktop console.

## NIP-11 auto-discovery

The NIP-11 relay-information document gains an optional `admin_api`
field carrying the canonical admin origin (`scheme://host[:port]`, no
path), present iff `BUZZ_ADMIN_HOST` is set and omitted otherwise. The
scheme follows the same loopback rule as NIP-98 `u`-tag verification via
a shared `scheme_for_host` helper, so the advertised origin and the
origin the relay verifies against can never diverge.

## Operator API origin decoupling

`RELAY_OPERATOR_API_ORIGIN` is no longer required at boot when
`RELAY_OPERATOR_PUBKEYS` is set — it is used only by the
community-provisioning endpoints, which fail closed at request time
(with a boot-time `WARN`) until it is set. The admin console needs no
origin.

## Admin-web adaptation

The standalone `admin-web` dashboard signs each request as a NIP-98
event via a NIP-07 browser extension, discovers the auth mode with a
single unauthenticated probe (`200` → `disabled`, anything else →
`nip98`, fail-secure), and carries no token entry surface. Playwright
coverage exercises the NIP-98 and CSP paths.

## Security hardening

Three findings from security review are folded in:

- **Append-only roster audit.** `PUT`/`DELETE /operators/{pubkey}`
mutate the deployment-wide root of trust, but the upsert overwrites
`role`/`added_by` in place and the delete removes the only row — so a
grant→revoke sequence left no trace of who was ever granted or by whom.
Each mutation now writes an `relay_operator_audit` row (actor, target,
`grant`/`revoke`, pre-image `prev_role`, `new_role`, timestamp) inside
the same transaction as the mutation. A per-target transaction-scoped
advisory lock serializes concurrent mutations of the same pubkey before
the pre-image read, so the recorded `prev_role` is always the true
predecessor even under a concurrent-grant race. Chronology is keyed on a
`BIGINT GENERATED ALWAYS AS IDENTITY` `seq` column, not the wall clock:
the serializing lock guarantees insertion order and `seq` captures it,
so ordered reads (`ORDER BY seq`) follow the true privilege chain even
across a backward NTP step that a `clock_timestamp()` ordering would
invert. `created_at` (`clock_timestamp()`) is retained as informational
occurrence time only. Append-only by construction — no `UPDATE`/`DELETE`
path and no API surface. A no-op delete writes nothing.
- **`expirationSecs` overflow.** The timeout path built `Utc::now() +
Duration::seconds(secs as i64)` from an attacker-controlled `u64`:
`i64::MAX` panicked the handler, and a wrapped-negative magnitude minted
a *past* expiry that still passed validation. `compute_timeout_until`
now rejects zero, rejects magnitudes above a documented
`MAX_TIMEOUT_SECS` (365 days), and uses checked
`try_seconds`/`checked_add_signed` so no input can panic or produce a
past expiry — over-cap, zero, `i64::MAX`, and wrapping-negative inputs
all return a clean `4xx`.
- **Uppercase-hex config-backed bypass.** Config pubkeys are lowercased
at parse, but the `409` immutability check raw-string-compared the path
param while `decode_hex_pubkey` accepted uppercase — so `PUT
/operators/{UPPERCASE}` skipped the guard and wrote a shadow row for the
same 32 bytes. The validated param is now canonicalized (lowercased)
before the `409` check, DB write, `DELETE`, and response body.

## Migrations

- `0035_relay_operators.sql` — `relay_operators` roster table
(deployment-global), `actor_authority` on `moderation_actions`,
`processing` status plus `active_action_id` on `moderation_reports`,
`status` on `product_feedback`.
- `0036_relay_admin_actions.sql` — enforcement-action table with a
`request_id` idempotency key, a `step_marker` for crash recovery, and a
`cancelled_by` attribution column.
- `0037_relay_admin_action_lease.sql` — lease fencing for the action
worker.
- `0038_relay_admin_outbox_claim_token.sql` — fenced claim token on the
outbox worker.
- `0039_relay_operator_audit.sql` — append-only `relay_operator_audit`
trail for roster mutations (see Security hardening).

`docs/admin/README.md` documents the full principal model, NIP-98 event
requirements, capabilities by role, the startup error matrix, and the
discovery field.

## Production blast radius

A relay without `BUZZ_ADMIN_HOST` is completely unaffected — the admin
surface stays disabled and `BUZZ_ADMIN_AUTH` is ignored; a lingering
`BUZZ_ADMIN_TOKEN` logs a startup warning and must be removed. Where
`BUZZ_ADMIN_HOST` **is** set, unset `BUZZ_ADMIN_AUTH` defaults to
`nip98` (per-person signed auth); `BUZZ_ADMIN_AUTH=disabled` reproduces
`main`'s prior `Host`/`Origin`-only gating but is read-only (mutation
routes `403`). The five migrations add tables and columns without
touching existing data.

8a2c9af2db feat(deletion): add durable whole-community deletion (#4425)
## Summary

Adds a durable, operator-controlled V1 for deleting an entire Buzz
community without deleting another tenant's data.

The workflow is exposed through `buzz-admin deletions`:

- `sweep` records independent fleet storage-taxonomy observations
- `submit`, `list`, `inspect`, and `approve` manage a deletion request
- `unblock` resumes a fail-closed request after an operator records
remediation identity and reason
- `run` and `drain` execute bounded work

Requests advance through a PostgreSQL-backed state machine and stop at
`retention_pending` after logical deletion has been independently
verified across PostgreSQL, object storage, and Redis.

This PR ships the engine and CLI, not a continuously running worker or
Kubernetes packaging. For V1, a cluster/VM administrator invokes
`/usr/local/bin/buzz-admin` from the existing relay image, for example
with `kubectl exec` or an equivalent container/VM exec path.

## What whole-community V1 removes

For the target community, V1 removes:

- rows from the allowlisted community-scoped PostgreSQL catalog,
including members, profiles, authored events and bodies, DMs, reactions,
mentions, memberships, tokens, workflows, moderation, audit, feedback,
and rate-limit state
- media sidecars and upload-attribution records under
`_meta/<community>/` and `_uploads/<community>/`
- Git repository pointers under `repos/<community>/`
- Redis keys under `buzz:<community>:*`

The community row survives as a permanent tombstone, and deletion
control-plane records remain as evidence of the request, approval,
execution, and result.

## Safety model

Deletion is not a broad `DELETE CASCADE` followed by optimistic cleanup.
The destructive boundaries are durable and fail closed.

### 1. Inventory and approval

- `submit` resolves the target and freezes the schema plus summary-only
storage inventory.
- Approval is bound to the exact request, community, and frozen
inventory digest.
- Unsupported manifest versions, malformed keys inside the target's
owned prefixes, live scoped-table/write-fence coverage drift,
frozen-inventory mismatch, and approval mismatch block execution rather
than guessing. Migration and catalog revision numbers are not
authorization gates; the executor validates the live safety shape
instead.
- Storage inventory is server-side prefix scoped to exactly:
  - `_meta/<community>/`
  - `_uploads/<community>/`
  - `repos/<community>/`
- The deletion path never lists the whole shared bucket and has no
arbitrary per-community object cap. Its listing work is proportional to
the target community's bindings, not total fleet storage.
- Fleet-wide taxonomy sweeps remain independent observability. They
report unknown writer shapes but do not gate deletion submission,
fencing, or destructive progress. Maintainers must add deletion taxonomy
coverage whenever a new community-owned object-key class is introduced;
writer-coverage tests bind the current media and Git writers to that
contract.

### 2. Quiesce, fence, and destructive freeze

- Writes continue through submission, inventory, and approval. They stop
when execution moves the target into `quiescing` and then establishes
the durable fence.
- Already-admitted external effects finish under heartbeated
serving-write leases; the exact admitted lease may renew while the
community is quiescing, but new lease acquisition is rejected. The
executor drains admitted leases before destructive work.
- Invite minting after quiescing begins fails as typed `AccessDenied`
(HTTP 503 at the relay boundary) before an invite can be persisted.
- Database triggers enforce the community write fence across the
complete catalog of community-scoped tables. Startup/readiness and
destructive execution validate that catalog so a newly added but
unfenced table cannot silently escape.
- **Named isolation assumption — fresh write snapshot.** Every writer
transaction that can reach a community-fenced relation must use
PostgreSQL `READ COMMITTED`; each guarded write therefore observes a
statement snapshot no older than acquisition of the community deletion
lock. `REPEATABLE READ` and `SERIALIZABLE` can retain a pre-fence
snapshot and are unsupported for writers. The writer pool refuses
non-`READ COMMITTED` sessions at connection setup, and both SQL fence
functions reject an explicit per-transaction isolation override with
SQLSTATE `25000`. Configuration-delivered bad isolation can surface
through SQLx as a pool-acquire timeout because every `after_connect`
attempt is rejected; the precise `community writes require READ
COMMITTED isolation` reason remains observable when the SQL guard is
reached. Read-only replica transactions are outside this assumption.
- Holding the shared advisory lock until the guarded write executes is a
separate liveness condition: under `READ COMMITTED`, releasing it early
does not permit resurrection because the trigger rechecks the fence, but
it can turn a fleet sweep into a statement-wide SQLSTATE `55000` abort.
- After the fence closes writers, storage is re-enumerated into chunked
side-table rows. Per-prefix counts and digests bind those concrete keys
to the destructive manifest.
- Manifest chunk insertion, update, and deletion are protected after
freeze. This closes the race where an unbound key could otherwise appear
after the manifest was committed.

### 3. Checkpointed destruction

- Target-owned object bindings are deleted from the frozen destructive
manifest in bounded batches with durable progress.
- The concrete key list lives in chunked side-table rows rather than one
request-row JSON value. It supports large communities, resumable
execution, and terminal cleanup.
- Missing objects are accepted as idempotent crash-window outcomes;
malformed ownership, changed evidence, and unexplained target-prefix
drift fail closed.
- PostgreSQL purging remains scoped by `community_id`, including the
guarded NIP-RS hard-delete path discovered with real Desktop kind
`30078` read-state data.
- Redis cleanup explicitly scans and `UNLINK`s only
`buzz:<community_id>:*`. Natural expiry is insufficient because some
keys, including tunnel generation counters used as fencing state, are
deliberately persistent.

### 4. Independent verification

- PostgreSQL logical absence is checked after purge.
- The three target-owned storage prefixes are freshly inventoried again
and must be empty.
- Redis requires two complete empty namespace scans.
- Only after all three stores pass does the request advance through
`logically_verified` to `retention_pending`.

## What V1 deliberately does not erase

### Shared content-addressed storage

Per-community deletion removes bindings, metadata, attribution records,
and Git pointers. It does **not** physically delete fleet-shared CAS
bytes that another community may still reference:

- media blobs and thumbnails
- Git manifests, packs, and indexes (`manifests/`, `packs/`, and `idx/`)

Safe reclamation requires a separate fleet-wide reachability and
retention GC. Unknown keys elsewhere in the shared bucket do not block
one community's deletion; malformed or unrecognized keys inside that
community's three owned prefixes still fail closed.

### External retained copies

The online logical-deletion proof does not erase object
versions/replicas, database backups/WAL, CDN copies, provider retention
copies, or observability exports. Those require their own retention and
purge controls.

### Member-only erasure

This PR erases a whole community. It does not implement the different
operation "erase one npub while preserving the community."

Removing membership or accepting NIP-09 is not member erasure. A
member-only workflow would need to find and selectively remove or redact
authored event content and pubkeys, profile data, DMs, reactions,
mentions, memberships/roles, tokens, workflows/subscriptions, upload
attribution, moderation/audit history, repository attribution, and
identity embedded in tags or JSON. It would also need explicit rules for
ownership transfer, surviving replies and thread metadata, audit-chain
integrity, immutable Git history, and shared-CAS reachability. That
requires a pubkey-level fence and selective graph rewrite; it is a
separate deletion product, not a safe extension of this whole-tenant
worker.

## In scope

- migration `0029_community_deletion.sql`: requests, approvals, leases,
manifest chunks, checkpoints, tombstones, and the universal write-fence
catalog
- durable executor leases, generations, heartbeats, retry/block state,
and resumable stage transitions
- operator-driven `sweep`, `submit`, `list`, `inspect`, `approve`,
`unblock`, `run`, and `drain` commands
- serving-path fences for database writes and external effects across
event ingest, media, Git, workflow, push, invites, mesh/tunnel, and
related paths
- target-prefix-only storage inventory, summary manifests, post-fence
destructive chunks, and bounded batch deletion
- exact community Redis namespace purge and two-pass absence
verification
- cross-community isolation, crash/resume, manifest-integrity,
writer-taxonomy, and schema/migration regressions
- desired-state `schema/schema.sql` support without requiring a SQLx
migration ledger

## Deferred / not covered

- dedicated Helm/chart worker Deployment, service account, secrets,
probes, resources, and network policy
- autonomous `buzz-admin deletions worker` poll loop and worker-only
health server
- least-privilege separation among migration, relay-serving, and
destructive execution roles
- fleet-wide shared-CAS physical GC
- backup/provider/CDN/observability retention completion
- member-only erasure
- provider-native conditional-delete improvements
- a general force-continue escape hatch; permanent safety failures
remain fail closed unless an operator remediates the cause and records
an audited `unblock`

The removed continuous-worker implementation remains deferred; no remote
follow-up branch is claimed by this PR.

## Validation

### Current PR head and repository state

Current pushed head: `359d8402ee15f049768f54156f67b953c7a7e2ed`, rebased
onto `cc9a2f783375e51a6e8d1f2f9d01d5f7e22813d1` (`origin/main` at push
time). The complete PR diff is now 47 files, 9,834 additions, and 517
deletions.

The bespoke source-scanner stack was removed to keep this PR scoped to
community deletion. Tyler/team requested the underlying fenced-write
safety behavior, not `ast-grep`,
`crates/buzz-db/tests/community_fenced_writes.rs`, its 27 fixtures, or
the new `scripts/lints/community_*.yml` rules. Those scanner-specific
files, dependencies, Hermit links, and runner wiring are absent from the
current tree. The production database write fence, startup/destructive
live-catalog validation, and deletion behavior remain.

Source validation on this exact SHA passed:

- `cargo fmt --all -- --check`
- `bash -n scripts/run-tests.sh`
- `cargo nextest run -p buzz-db --all-targets`: 102 passed, 173 skipped,
0 failed
- `cargo nextest run -p buzz-deletion --all-targets`: 10 passed, 9
skipped, 0 failed
- `cargo nextest run -p buzz-admin --all-targets`: 1 passed, 0 failed
- affected-package/all-target Clippy with warnings denied
- lockfile consistency
- Helm 3.16.4 lint and all 44 chart unit tests
- Helm region controls using that fixture: default
`BUZZ_S3_REGION=us-east-1`, explicit `eu-west-2` override, and
blank-region schema rejection

The prior Kubernetes battery below was run against
`928992237358a3294621ac0280830b77155abc04`. It remains useful evidence
for the patch-equivalent production deletion implementation, but it is
**not** claimed as exact-SHA evidence for current head
`359d8402ee15f049768f54156f67b953c7a7e2ed`; the current cleanup removes
only scanner/test/tooling infrastructure. CI restarted for the new head
after the rebase and is pending. Human review remains
`CHANGES_REQUESTED`.

### Prior-head live Kubernetes deletion and safety gates

The full program used one immutable image, real PostgreSQL, Redis,
MinIO, and a three-relay Kubernetes release:

- source: `928992237358a3294621ac0280830b77155abc04` (**prior head**)
- image: `buzz-e2e:sha-928992237358`
- immutable image digest:
`sha256:a1a204f4618ac22d9e210be5e5290645a15d79831ae30b0e44379357c8e4a895`
- evidence root:
`/tmp/buzz-e2e/20260807T033025Z-928992237358-full-gates/`
- evidence-manifest digest:
`82875c5bc9bea7370b796a7aef3457b3a1c8306c84c59e0f7388bbb5ad30e865`

Passed gates at that prior head:

- **Chart/operator region:** default `us-east-1`, explicit nondefault
propagation, blank-region schema rejection, live in-pod environment, and
an in-pod taxonomy sweep over 18 objects with zero unknown.
- **Fenced writers and lifecycle:** open-write/fence ordering;
100-attempt anti-starvation; invite, push matcher, and exhausted-reaper
bystander isolation; non-`READ-COMMITTED` rejection; manifest/tombstone
contracts; eight-failure stage block and audited `unblock`.
- **Destructive lifecycle:** submit → approve → run →
`retention_pending`; PostgreSQL tombstone and Redis/S3 verification
true; zero retries/errors; terminal reruns rejected with exit 5.
- **Fresh 10,001-object crash boundary:** exactly two chunks (10,000 +
1). The executor deleted chunk 0 from MinIO while its PostgreSQL stamp
was row-lock-blocked, was killed with `SIGKILL`, left one object and
both stamps absent, then resumed the same request under generation 2 to
zero objects and terminal state.
- **Independent dead-owner recovery:** a dedicated executor claimed
generation 1, blocked before effects, and was killed through containerd
with `SIGKILL` (no TERM cleanup). The request remained owned and
unreclaimable before lease expiry; a successor claimed generation 2
after 60 seconds and completed with two attempts and zero retries.
- **Three-pod socket isolation:** ordinary NIP-42 and joined
huddle-audio target witnesses on every replica received exact `1008 /
community deleted`; healthy-tenant witnesses on those pods remained
live; deleted-host reconnect returned HTTP 404.
- **Health/provenance:** all replicas independently returned ready and
retained the exact image digest before/after destructive runs and an
audio-enabled rolling restart; PostgreSQL, Redis, and MinIO were healthy
at close.

Instrument corrections were retained as evidence rather than counted as
product failures: a foreground PostgreSQL forward caused an initial
`PoolTimedOut`; Kubernetes pod deletion exercised graceful TERM rather
than dead-owner recovery; shell-background socket witnesses died with
their parent; and the first image build hit the corporate TLS proxy.
Detached forwarding/witnesses, containerd `SIGKILL`, and the configured
internal CA/Artifactory mirror produced the discriminating runs without
weakening product security.

### Prior-head cleanup

For the prior-head Kubernetes run, the Helm release was removed,
namespace absence was verified, run-owned Screen sessions were absent,
and that source worktree remained clean. The evidence manifest was
independently recomputed and every indexed artifact passed `shasum -a
