MailVault Collection Profiler 0.1.0-alpha.3

This development pre-release adds durable workspace reopening and append-only findings review to the existing read-only physical inventory pipeline.

Highlights

  • Inspect and reopen existing profiler workspaces after application restart.
  • Explicit compatibility and migration confirmation before opening older workspaces.
  • Retained SQLite backup before workspace schema migration.
  • Run catalog for completed, failed and interrupted profiling records.
  • Browse previous inventory, findings and object details without rerunning profiling.
  • Single-writer workspace lock with read-only fallback for concurrent instances.
  • Append-only review history with SHA-256 event-chain validation.
  • Review statuses: acknowledged, expected, needs investigation and resolved externally.
  • Required review notes for investigation and externally resolved decisions.
  • Findings separated into attention, informational, reviewed and all views.
  • Sanitized JSON and CSV exports that exclude paths, filenames, email addresses and review notes.
  • CLI commands for workspace inspection, run browsing, review and export.

Safety boundary

  • MailVault source databases and objects remain read-only.
  • Source snapshots and original runtime evidence are not changed by review activity.
  • Existing profiler databases are never created implicitly during reopen.
  • Newer or corrupted workspaces fail closed.
  • Review history integrity failure disables writes but leaves browsing available.

Upgrade

Opening an alpha.2 workspace requires an explicit migration to workspace schema 5. A pre-migration backup is retained under backups/. Do not delete the backup until the migrated workspace has been validated.

Known limitations

  • Interrupted profiling cannot yet resume from the desktop UI.
  • Pause and cancellation controls are not exposed.
  • Full payload fixity, PRONOM/Siegfried identification, JHOVE, container expansion, OCR and semantic classification remain deferred.
  • Windows installers remain unsigned.

Validation completed

The Windows release candidate passed Rust formatting, Clippy with warnings denied, 28 Rust tests,
TypeScript type-checking, the Vite production build, native Tauri desktop compilation, documentation
privacy checks, workspace restart/reopen acceptance, Windows lock fallback, append-only review
integrity and sanitized export acceptance.

A controlled real-archive run completed with 17,296 messages, 54,450 MIME parts, 13,684 content
objects, 1,484 findings, 0 errors, 2 warnings, 1 missing object and 0 size mismatches. Source and
snapshot aggregate metrics matched, and the MailVault source was not modified. Raw runtime evidence
remains private; only sanitized aggregate evidence may be published.
