perf(tape): index-range reads, shared domain primitives - #2233
Merged
Conversation
`getMessageRecords` folded every message, tool and anchor row of the session and parsed each tool payload up to three times, although its output only depends on message rows and `message/retracted` events. It now reads those rows alone through `getEffectiveMessageInputRows`; `getViewManifestSourceMaps` filters with the same predicate. Both effective-input reads were written as `WHERE kind IN (...)`, which SQLite answers by walking the whole session on the primary key; under SQLCipher that decrypts every page the session touches. They now merge one index range per kind (`UNION ALL ... ORDER BY entry_id`), so only the pages holding the requested rows are read. On a 10k-entry encrypted session with the 64 MiB cache: effective-view inputs 215 -> 115 ms cold, message-only inputs 68 ms cold / 1.8 ms warm against 4.3 ms before. The fold keeps one parsed candidate per tool row (identity, rank, stored orderSeq) instead of re-parsing `payload_json`/`meta_json` in the rank comparison and again in the orderSeq projection; the projection now re-serialises only when a compaction shift moved the message. `tapeEntriesToEffectiveMessageRecords` had no callers. Real-SQLite tests assert both reads match their JS predicates and the table mock; a fold test pins that messageRecords are derived from message and retraction rows alone.
Ten files each declared their own SHA-256 hex pattern under five names, four carried identical `deepFreeze` and string-compare bodies and two an identical `utf8Length`. They now import them from `domain/primitives`. The comparator is renamed `compareUtf16`: it orders by UTF-16 code unit (what `<` does on strings), not by code point as the old name claimed, and persisted canonical orderings depend on exactly that behaviour. `TAPE_IDENTITY_PATTERN` keeps its name as an alias of the shared pattern. `hasExactKeys`/`isPlainRecord` stay per-file: the three versions differ (optional keys, prototype check) and merging them would change validation. Pure deduplication; no regex, ordering or freezing behaviour changes.
Four Tape files each had their own UUID regex and they disagreed: the Execution Journal accepted any version nibble, the contract and tool-surface validators required versions 1-8, and only two of them normalised letter case. A Run ID that one writer accepted could therefore be rejected by another reader of the same fact. `domain/primitives` now owns one `CANONICAL_UUID_PATTERN` (versions 1-8, lower case) and a `canonicalUuid` normaliser. Input validators (`requireUuid`, `requireExecutionRunId`) normalise through it and keep accepting any letter case; validators of stored values (`isUuid`, `readCanonicalTapeIncarnationId`) test the canonical pattern directly and stay strict, so no stored form is loosened. The Journal is the one site whose behaviour changes: it now rejects a runId with a version nibble outside 1-8. Every runtime runId comes from `randomUUID()`, so existing facts still parse; a test pins the rejection and the upper-case -> canonical idempotency.
The mock-contract parity seed had one revision per message, a retraction event without a `messageId` (so nothing was actually retracted) and tool rows in a shape the effective view never recognises, leaving the replacement, retraction and tool-join rules compared only on trivial input. A second seed writes one assistant message three times: a sent revision that is retracted, a sent revision at a shifted orderSeq that supersedes it, and a pending revision that must not. Its tool rows use the production payload shape with `toolCall` as an object for one call and as legacy JSON text for the other, so the SQL and JS views are compared on the join, the orderSeq rewrite and both encodings. Absolute assertions on the window contents and the search hits keep the parity from passing on two empty results.
The JS predicates and the SQL range builder each carried their own copy of which kinds an effective-state reader selects, kept equal only by a "must stay in sync" comment and a real-SQLite test. The range builder also accepted any `DeepChatTapeEntryKind`, so passing `event` would have merged the retraction range with itself and returned those rows twice. `EFFECTIVE_VIEW_INPUT_KINDS` and `EFFECTIVE_MESSAGE_INPUT_KINDS` now live in the domain, typed as `EffectiveInputKind`, which excludes `event` (selected by name via `message/retracted`) and `context` (skipped by the fold). Both the predicates and the store queries are built from them, so the two sides cannot drift and the ranges are disjoint by construction. No query text or predicate result changes.
Once the parity fixture really retracted `m2`, the `effectiveContextRetracted` read compared an empty window against an empty window and no longer said anything about retraction. It now also anchors on the preceding assistant message and asserts, on the SQLite store, that the window after it holds the two anchors and neither the retracted message nor its retraction event.
The range-merge query returned a `{ sql, params }` pair so that one
session id could be bound once per `UNION ALL` branch; SQLite already
binds a named parameter everywhere it appears, so the query is now a
plain SQL string with `$session` and the interface, the params closure
and the "one `?` per range" invariant are gone.
The fold's tool branch went through `readEffectiveToolCandidate`, a
one-caller helper that also had to carry the Map key inside the
candidate; the message branch next to it was already written inline,
and the tool branch now reads the same way.
`TAPE_IDENTITY_PATTERN` had become a bare alias of `SHA256_HEX_PATTERN`
with a single reader, which now uses the shared pattern directly.
No SQL semantics, fold output or validation results change.

The test upper-cased `22222222-2222-4222-8222-222222222222`, which contains no letters, so the "upper-case input is stored in canonical form and replays idempotently" assertions only ever compared a value with itself. It now uses a UUID with hex letters, asserts the two spellings differ, and checks both the stored `data.runId` and the provenance key against the lower-case form. Disabling the lower-casing in `canonicalUuid` now fails the test.

Review: perf(tape): index-range reads, shared domain primitives
Reviewed at 3303fee2c0 (8 commits, 28 files, +530/−209) against merge-base 68f39684d in an isolated read-only worktree. Static review plus independent reproduction of the load-bearing claims.
Independently verified
- Query-plan claims reproduce. Ran
EXPLAIN QUERY PLANfor old vs. new SQL against the real DDL (PRIMARY KEY (session_id, entry_id),idx_..._session_kind, partialidx_..._event_name) with the bundledbetter-sqlite3-multiple-ciphers(SQLite 3.53.0):- Old: a single
SEARCH ... sqlite_autoindex (session_id=?)— the documented whole-session PK walk. - New: per-kind
SEARCH ... (session_id=? AND kind=?)ranges plus the retraction arm on the partialevent_nameindex, merged viaMERGE (UNION ALL)with noUSE TEMP B-TREE FOR ORDER BY.
- Old: a single
- Row-for-row equality. Old vs. new SQL compared on randomized sessions (3 sessions, 685 rows across all 8 kinds, random event names): identical rows in identical
entry_idorder; the message-only set exactly equals the JS predicate's selection. - The narrowing is sound. Traced the whole fold in
buildEffectiveTapeView:messageRecords/messageEntriesderive frommessageCandidates(message rows) +retractedMessageIds(retraction events) only —shouldReplaceMessageconsults the record andentry_idalone, and tool candidates/anchors cannot influence them. FeedinggetEffectiveMessageInputRowstherefore produces identical output; the newtapeFactsinvariant test pins exactly this for bothincludePendingvalues. isEffectiveMessageInputRow≡ the old inline filter inviewReplayService, so the replay read is unchanged.- Consolidation is behavior-identical everywhere except the one documented site. Compared every migrated pattern char-by-char: the
common.ts/executionContract.ts/toolSurfaceFacts.tsUUID patterns already were the 1–8 canonical form; the SHA-256 patterns differ only in flags;compareCodePoints→compareUtf16is a pure rename with an identical body (the old name was the misnomer);deepFreeze/utf8Lengthbodies unchanged. - No dangling references.
TAPE_IDENTITY_PATTERNandtapeEntriesToEffectiveMessageRecordshave zero remaining references; all four mock stores implement the new port method;reconcilerService/factPersistencecorrectly keepgetEffectiveViewInputRows(they need tool rows). - Tool-fold rework preserves semantics.
shouldReplaceToolRowwith precomputed ranks makes the same decisions (rank, thenentry_id); each tool payload is parsed once and re-serialized only when a compaction shift moved the message.
Behavior change (acknowledged, acceptable)
The Journal now rejects runIds whose UUID version nibble is outside 1–8. Well-reasoned in the PR body: every runtime runId is randomUUID() v4, and a hypothetical stored bad row lands in classifyExecutionJournalRows's try/catch as malformed_fact (parked) rather than blocking harness construction. Pinned by the new test, which also verifies upper-case → canonical idempotency with a genuinely case-differing Run ID.
Notes (non-blocking)
- The second mock-contract seed also fixes a real pre-existing seed bug: the old
message/retractedevent inseedConversationcarried nomessageId, so the retraction it was meant to exercise was a no-op. Good catch making that observable through the window assertions. - Leaving the
compareCodePointscopies inagent/deepchat/runtimeuntouched is the right call — importingtape/domainprimitives across that boundary would be worse than the duplication. - Test additions are proportionate: one invariant test guarding the core claim, one pin for the behavior change, SQL↔JS↔mock parity on a non-trivial seed, and mechanical mock additions. No padding.
No blocking findings. Approving.

Record the dependency edges this branch moved: contextOccupancyCoordinator now imports tape/ports/capabilities instead of the concrete facade, and effectiveView no longer imports executionJournal (the exclusion list is derived from reservedNamespaces). The remaining drift (six more main files, twelve more edges, the shared routes digest) predates this branch: the baselines were last generated at f3a53f6 and dev has merged ThinkInAIXYZ#2229 and ThinkInAIXYZ#2233 since.

Summary
Two Tape read paths did more work than their output needed.
getMessageRecords, which runs before every provider request, read and folded every message, tool and anchor row of the session and parsed each tool payload up to three times, although its result depends only on message rows andmessage/retractedevents. And both effective-input queries were written asWHERE kind IN (...), which SQLite answers by walking the whole session on the primary key; under SQLCipher that decrypts every page the session touches. Alongside,tape/domaincarried ten copies of the same SHA-256 pattern, four copies ofdeepFreezeand a string comparator, and four UUID regexes that disagreed with each other.No schema, fact name, provenance key, hash format or IPC change. Existing Tapes read identically.
What changed
Effective-input reads walk index ranges instead of the session.
getEffectiveViewInputRowsand the newgetEffectiveMessageInputRowsmerge one range per kind (UNION ALL ... ORDER BY entry_id, no sort), so only the pages holding the requested rows are read. Measured on a 10k-entry encrypted session with the 64 MiB cache:getMessageRecordsinputs, coldgetMessageRecordsinputs, warmgetMessageRecordsreads only what decides it. It now reads message rows and retraction events alone;getViewManifestSourceMapsfilters with the same predicate. One pair of constants (EFFECTIVE_VIEW_INPUT_KINDS,EFFECTIVE_MESSAGE_INPUT_KINDS) drives both the JS predicates and the SQL, typed soeventcannot be listed and duplicate the retraction range.The fold parses each tool row once. Identity, rank and the stored
orderSeqare read together; the rank comparison no longer re-parsesmeta_json, and the orderSeq projection re-serialises only when a compaction shift moved the message.tape/domain/primitives.ts.SHA256_HEX_PATTERN,deepFreeze,utf8Lengthand the string comparator now live in one module. The comparator is renamedcompareUtf16: it orders by UTF-16 code unit (what<does), not by code point as the old name said, and persisted canonical orderings depend on that comparison.hasExactKeysandisPlainRecordstay per-file because the three versions differ (optional keys, prototype check).UUID identities validate the same way everywhere. The Execution Journal accepted any version nibble, the contract and tool-surface validators required 1-8, and only two of the four sites normalised case. One

Real-SQLite tests assert both reads match their JS predicates and the table mock. The mock-contract parity gets a second seed: one assistant message written three times (sent, retracted, sent again at a shifted orderSeq, then pending) with production-shaped tool rows in both the object and the legacy JSON-text
toolCallencoding. Replacement, retraction, the tool join and the orderSeq rewrite are now compared between the SQL and JS views on non-trivial input, and absolute assertions keep the parity from passing on two empty results. A fold test pins thatmessageRecordsare derived from message and retraction rows alone.Compatibility

Every runtimerunIdhas come fromrandomUUID()(v4) since the Journal was introduced, so no stored fact is affected, and the read path lands in thetry/catchofclassifyExecutionJournalRows(malformed_fact, parked), so even a hypothetical bad row would not block harness construction.
