feat: add PrivateDocumentStore element type, gated to GROVE_V4 - #787
Merged
Conversation
A thin wrapper over BulkAppendTree for append-only storage of fixed-size
opaque entries — the same relationship CommitmentTree has to it, minus the
Sinsemilla frontier (phase-one private documents are write-once and never
proven against later, so no anchor is needed).
The committed config {entry_size, chunk_power} is bound into the state
root:
pds_state_root = blake3("pds_state" || config_hash || bulk_state_root)
config_hash = blake3("pds_config" || entry_size_be(4) || chunk_power(1))
so the declared entry size is consensus-visible and a proof can never be
reinterpreted under a different configuration. Because the root binds the
config, the empty root is a function of the config rather than a single
constant; the config-independent inner EMPTY_BULK_APPEND_TREE_STATE_ROOT
is precomputed with a runtime-equivalence test (mirroring
EMPTY_COMMITMENT_TREE_STATE_ROOT), plus a pinned test vector for the full
composite.
The store validates every append against the committed entry size, offers
get-by-position across the buffer/chunk tiers, and exposes a
verify_entry_sizes integrity walk for verify_grovedb.
Part of #784.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
New non-Merk tree element for Platform's phase-one private documents: an
append-only store of fixed-size opaque entries whose committed config
{entry_size, chunk_power} is bound into the state root. GroveDB never
interprets a "document" — behaviorally the type is fully generic.
Discriminant allocation. Issue #784 proposed 15/143, but 15 is the
Element::NonCounted wrapper byte and 143 (= 0x80|15) is rejected as
wrapper-on-wrapper; 21-23 / 149-151 and TreeType 13-15 are taken by the
indexed trees on develop. The next free pair following the +128
convention is therefore:
- ElementType::PrivateDocumentStore = 24,
NonCountedPrivateDocumentStore = 152 (0x80|24)
- Element::PrivateDocumentStore(total_count, entry_size, chunk_power,
flags) — bincode variant index 24 (appended, wire format of every
existing variant unchanged)
- TreeType::PrivateDocumentStore(chunk_power) = 16
- GroveOp::PrivateDocumentStoreInsert { entry } — sort tag 19
Operations (grovedb/src/operations/private_document_store.rs, modeled on
the commitment-tree/bulk-append ops): size-validated append, get by
global position (buffer + chunk tiers), count; plus the
PrivateDocumentStoreInsert batch op with a preprocess pass that folds a
group of appends into one ReplaceNonMerkTreeRoot
(NonMerkTreeMeta::PrivateDocumentStore). Batch and direct appends
converge to the same root hash (tested).
Fail-closed versioning. Unlike earlier element types, a new
GroveDBOperationsPrivateDocumentStoreVersions family acts as a
capability gate: every slot is 0 on GROVE_V1..V3 — element creation
(direct and batch) and all operations return a version-mismatch error —
and 1 on GROVE_V4. Element::deserialize intentionally stays
protocol-independent per the append-only codec contract; slot values are
pinned by tests and V3 rejection is covered end to end.
Immutability. No per-entry delete or update exists, and — stricter than
the other non-Merk trees — the store's always-empty Merk rejects ALL
child-element inserts at the merk chokepoints (validate_insertable_into,
insert_reference/insert_subtree, insert_count_indexed_subtree) and in
batch execute_ops_on_path.
Empty-root binding. Insert (v0/v1), batch insert, the V1 terminal
non-Merk proof binding, and the verify_grovedb walk all derive the child
hash from empty_private_document_store_state_root(entry_size,
chunk_power) when the store is empty and from the reconstructed store
otherwise; verify_grovedb additionally runs the entry-size integrity
walk over every chunk blob and buffer entry.
Proof policy. V0 (locked wire format) rejects subqueries into the type,
like the other non-Merk trees; V1 rejects subqueries too for now —
range-read proofs are a follow-up planned at the BulkAppendTree layer so
the anchored DataCommitmentTree (#783) inherits them — while terminal
queries bind the config-carrying state root via
bind_terminal_non_merk_tree (round-trip tested for empty and populated
stores).
Costs are entry-size-parametrized: PRIVATE_DOCUMENT_STORE_COST_SIZE
(9 + 5 + 1 + 2) in merk, and average/worst-case arms for the batch op
mirroring BulkAppend plus the composite-root blake3.
No behavior change to any existing element type: the full workspace
suite (43 binaries, including all CommitmentTree tests) passes
unchanged, and clippy reports nothing in any touched file.

… bar codecov/patch reported 76.7% on the initial push. Locally-measured single-run patch coverage is now 90.5% (1004/1109 diff lines); the gap to the earlier number was part genuine and part the known under-reporting when codecov merges the three nextest coverage shards. New targeted tests, each pinned to previously-unexercised patch lines: - estimated-costs: direct average/worst-case cost tests for GroveOp::PrivateDocumentStoreInsert, including the entry-size parametrization contract (doubling the entry length grows added_bytes by exactly the difference) and the compaction-blob worst-case bound. - v0 insert arm: no registered version pairs the v0 add_element_on_transaction implementation with an enabled PDS family, so a custom version (V4 with the slot dialed to 0) drives the arm: happy path, non-empty rejection, invalid-config rejection, plus a verify_grovedb pass proving v0 and v1 bind the identical config-parametrized empty root. - merk chokepoints: a PDS-typed Merk rejects every element-insert entry point (validate_insertable_into, insert, insert_if_not_exists, insert_reference, insert_subtree, insert_count_indexed_subtree). - merk dispatch: PrivateDocumentStore arms of every ElementTreeTypeExtensions method, reconstruct_with_root_key passthrough, and all four element cost paths against PRIVATE_DOCUMENT_STORE_COST_SIZE. - batch policy: duplicate InsertIfNotExists rejection, reference-to- updated-store rejection, the apply_operations_without_batching fallback, and op metadata pins (sort tag 19, can_mutate_child_count, NonMerkTreeMeta round-trip). - V0 prover: subqueries into a store rejected under GROVE_V2's locked V0 wire format while terminal element proofs still generate. - store crate: Debug/Display, error Display variants, and wiped-storage error paths (missing chunk reads, failing integrity walk). - element crate: serde shadow round-trip, flag-accessor round-trip, Display/type_str strings. - direct v1 insert config rejection and query_item_value_or_sum tree rejection. Remaining uncovered patch lines are defensive arms that need storage faults or forged proofs to reach (verify.rs PDS lower-layer rejection, compute_non_merk_child_hash fallbacks) or are unreachable by design (the batch propagation else-if for a type whose children are rejected).

Seven findings, all addressed: 1. Serialization discriminant matrix: add the PrivateDocumentStore row (discriminant 24) and bump the expected base-variant count to 22. 2. Config validation at every ingress: an invalid committed config (entry_size 0 or chunk_power outside 1..=16) is now unrepresentable — Element::serialize, Element::deserialize, and the serde codec all reject it via the new validate_private_document_store_config helper (which looks through NonCounted). Safe to enforce at the codec level because no validly-written bytes can violate it: the checked constructors and both insert paths already enforce the same bound. new_private_document_store stays an unchecked restoration constructor (mirroring new_commitment_tree / new_bulk_append_tree) and is now documented as such. 3. Average-case hash calls: AVG_HASH_CALLS bumped 1 -> 2 for PrivateDocumentStoreInsert — a PDS append unconditionally derives the composite pds_state root on top of the bulk state root. 4. Wrong-entry-size test now asserts the grove root hash is unchanged by rejected appends, not just the count. 5. Delete test now proves non-Merk storage reclamation: after deletion the store's data namespace is raw-iterated and asserted empty, and a store recreated at the same path starts from position 0. 6. The V0 terminal proof test verifies the proof (root-hash binding + result set) instead of only generating it. 7. Batch-builder bypass: rather than re-plumbing TreeType through every *_into_batch_operations signature, a single chokepoint in Merk::apply_unchecked — the funnel every public apply variant goes through — rejects any non-empty batch aimed at a PrivateDocumentStore-typed Merk. Queued builder ops can only take effect through an apply, so this closes every builder route at once; covered by a test that queues via the builders and asserts the apply is rejected. The chokepoint exposed a pre-existing quirk in delete: the !is_empty branch reopens the PARENT merk labeled with the DELETED CHILD's tree type (see the long-standing `todo` there). For a PDS child that label tripped the guard, so PDS deletions now label the reopened parent with the parent's actual tree type; every existing type keeps the historical label byte-for-byte to avoid any behavior change on released paths.

Preliminary review — Codex only
The PrivateDocumentStore integration is broad, but five in-scope correctness issues remain. Appends can change NonCounted semantics, hashing and reads under-report consensus-critical costs, malformed committed chunks can masquerade as absent documents, and randomized batch preprocessing makes failure behavior and accumulated costs nondeterministic.
Validated blockers were found in the Codex precheck. Sonnet is deferred until a fresh Codex revalidation clears the blocker gate.

These findings are from an automated code review. Verify each finding against the current code and only fix it if needed.
In `grovedb/src/operations/private_document_store.rs`:
- [BLOCKING] grovedb/src/operations/private_document_store.rs:184-189: Appending strips the NonCounted wrapper
The typed operation accepts `NonCounted(PrivateDocumentStore)` through `element.underlying()`, but reconstructs the updated element as a bare `PrivateDocumentStore`. The first direct append therefore changes its contribution to a `CountTree` or `CountSumTree` parent from zero to one and changes the resulting consensus root. Batch preprocessing has the same defect: it loses `element.is_non_counted()`, and `ReplaceNonMerkTreeRoot` reconstructs a bare element while preserving only its flags. Both paths must record and reapply the wrapper when replacing the element.
- [BLOCKING] grovedb/src/operations/private_document_store.rs:299-302: Entry reads discard all data-storage costs
`private_document_store_get_value` returns a `CostResult`, but the private-document lookup contributes no seek or loaded-byte cost. `PrivateDocumentStore::get_value` returns a plain `Result`, while `BulkAppendTree::get_buffer_value` and `get_chunk_value` discard the `CostContext` produced by dense-tree and MMR storage reads through `.unwrap()`. As a result, an in-range read charges only for retrieving the parent element and opening the storage context, not for reading the document itself. The read stack must propagate `CostResult` values and accumulate their costs here.
- [BLOCKING] grovedb/src/operations/private_document_store.rs:398-409: Randomized HashMap iteration makes batch failure costs nondeterministic
`pds_groups` is iterated while performing cost-bearing storage reads and entry-size validation, but the standard `HashMap` randomizes iteration order. When a batch targets multiple stores and more than one group is invalid, different processes can fail on different groups after accumulating different operation costs; the returned error can also vary. Process groups in a canonical order while preserving the original insertion order within each group.
In `grovedb-private-document-store/src/store.rs`:
- [BLOCKING] grovedb-private-document-store/src/store.rs:127-130: The composite state-root hash is omitted from operation costs
`bulk_result.hash_count` already includes the Blake3 call that constructs the underlying BulkAppendTree state root. `compute_private_document_store_state_root` then performs a second Blake3 call, but that call is never added to `cost.hash_node_calls`. Direct appends and every append performed by batch preprocessing consequently under-report one hash call. The average-case estimator must also be corrected because its claim that the composite hash replaces the bulk state-root hash contradicts the actual code, which computes both.
- [BLOCKING] grovedb-private-document-store/src/store.rs:179-182: Missing in-range entries are returned as normal absence
The initial bounds check establishes that `global_position < total_count`, so the requested position must exist. A completed chunk can nevertheless deserialize successfully with fewer than `epoch_size` entries, after which `entries.get(pos_in_chunk)` returns `None`. This violates the documented contract that `None` only means out of range and masks corrupted committed storage as an absent private document. Require every completed chunk to contain exactly `epoch_size` entries before indexing it, matching the invariant already enforced by `verify_entry_sizes`.
Brings in the unified PathQuery stack (#795-#809) and the V4 batch-gate cost work (#789/#790). Conflict resolutions, all additive or relocations: - grovedb-version v1..v4: union of the IndexedAxis (develop) and PrivateDocumentStore (this branch) version-family imports; both initializers already auto-merged. - merk apply: develop refactored apply_unchecked into a delegator over the new apply_unchecked_with_old_value_observer — the PDS "no ops on a PDS Merk" chokepoint moved into that new single funnel. - proof generate (V1): kept both newly-inserted arms — this branch's PDS subquery rejection and develop's indexed-axis descent. - batch apply: kept the PDS preprocess pass ahead of develop's scan_delete_tree_ops refactor (both call sites). - PDS tests: Query literals gained the new read_mode: None field. No discriminant collisions: element 24/152, TreeType 16, and GroveOp tag 19 remain unclaimed on develop. Full workspace suite green after merge (45 binaries, zero failures).

I found five issues that should be addressed before merge: NonCounted wrapper loss, quadratic batch append behavior, an under-bounded worst-case estimator, a fail-open feature-version gate, and missing PDS hash-cost accounting.
Two review passes (thepastaclaw, and QuantumExplorer's P1/P2 pass) plus a
self-review raised 13 distinct issues. All are addressed here.
CONSENSUS
* Appending stripped the NonCounted wrapper. Both append paths unwrapped
the stored element and wrote back a bare PrivateDocumentStore, so a
NonCounted store under a CountTree became counted on its first append,
changing the parent aggregate and the root hash. The direct path now
captures and restores the wrapper; the batch path restores it in the
ReplaceNonMerkTreeRoot apply arm, which already re-reads the stored
element for its flags (no extra read, no cost change). Scoped to PDS:
CommitmentTree/Mmr/BulkAppend/Dense share the defect but are live on
V1..V3, so their fix needs its own version gate.
* check_pds_enabled was fail-open. `slot < 1` accepted 2 and above, so a
future slot meaning new semantics would silently run v1 code. Now an
exact `slot == 1`, matching every other guard in the codebase.
* Write-once was not enforced. A plain InsertOrReplace of a fresh store
over a populated one was accepted with default options, resetting the
element to empty while its chunk blobs and MMR nodes stayed behind.
Both the batch and direct paths now reject it.
COST ACCOUNTING (fees; all pre-activation, so free to correct now)
* The composite pds_state blake3 was computed but never charged.
* Opening a store derives the committed-config hash, also uncharged:
from_state now returns a CostResult and bills it.
* Reads billed nothing for fetching the document. Added
BulkAppendTree::{get_buffer_value,get_chunk_value}_with_cost (additive;
the plain accessors delegate and discard exactly as before, so released
paths are byte-identical), and threaded CostResult through
PrivateDocumentStore::get_value and the grovedb read op.
* The worst-case estimate was not an upper bound: 1091 modeled hashes
against 131,070 real ones at chunk_power 16, and a flat 64 KiB blob
against 2^16 * entry_size. Now derived from the permitted maximum. It
deliberately over-estimates smaller configs because the op carries no
config — over-estimating is the safe direction for a fee admission
bound. The average-case arm now models the dense walk instead of a flat
constant.
CORRECTNESS / PERFORMANCE
* Batch appends were O(N^2): try_insert recomputes the dense root on
every insert (~4.3 billion hashes to fill one epoch at chunk_power 16),
which append_no_state_root inherits. Added
DenseFixedSizedMerkleTree::try_insert_no_root,
BulkAppendTree::append_deferred_roots and
PrivateDocumentStore::append_many, all additive; the batch preprocess
uses append_many. A test pins byte-for-byte equivalence with a loop of
append.
* Batch preprocessing iterated a HashMap while doing cost-bearing work,
so on the failure path the accumulated cost and the surfaced error
varied by iteration order. Now a BTreeMap.
* get_value returned Ok(None) for a truncated chunk, conflating
corruption with absence. It now enforces the epoch_size invariant.
* verify_grovedb laundered entry-size violations into an opaque hash
mismatch and reported transient storage errors as corruption. The walk
is now a separate check reporting its real message.
CLEANUP
* Deleted a 227-line byte-identical copy of test_utils.rs; the harness is
shared from grovedb-bulk-append-tree behind a `test-utils` feature.
* Replaced three identical path helpers with util::subtree_path_with_key.
Two self-review findings were withdrawn on closer inspection: the batch
meta ops cannot be constructed externally (the variants are
#[non_exhaustive]), and verify_grovedb walking every entry is consistent
with it walking every Merk element everywhere else.
Full workspace suite green: 45 binaries, 2739 grovedb tests, 0 failures.

Merges develop and adopts PR #813's mechanism for the new element type. #813 fixed the same class of defect for CommitmentTree — an estimated cost that could not see the tree's epoch scale — by threading the chunk power in from the tree's OWN declared layer and erroring loudly when the caller did not declare it. That is exactly the tension left open on this PR's worst-case bound: a config-blind estimate must either under-bound or grotesquely over-reserve. Rather than add a second parallel parameter, the existing one is generalized from `ct_chunk_power` to `append_tree_chunk_power`: both CommitmentTree and PrivateDocumentStore size their dense-recompute and compaction terms by 2^chunk_power, so one threaded config serves both. The layer lookup now matches `TreeType::PrivateDocumentStore(chunk_power)` alongside the commitment-tree case. The PDS average-case arm now derives its dense-walk and compaction terms from the declared epoch instead of assuming a typical store, and raises `PathNotFoundInCacheForEstimatedCosts` when the layer is undeclared, matching the CommitmentTreeInsert contract. This removes the up-to-64x over-charge the previous commit had to accept and flag for review. `entry.len()` is the committed entry size (the append path rejects any other length), so the byte terms need no separate declaration. Each entry is charged twice — once into the dense buffer, once into the chunk blob its epoch compacts into — which is what the amortized model now reflects. The worst-case arm is deliberately left as a true upper bound over the whole permitted range; that is the correct semantic there, and #813 left the worst-case path alone for the same reason. Tests: the estimate scales with the declared chunk power, an undeclared layer errors, and the entry-size parametrization assertion is corrected to the 2x amortized charge. Verification now matches CI (--all-features, against the merge with develop) rather than the branch alone with default features, which is why the previous commit passed locally and failed in CI.

Re-review at 4db7b479: the five findings from the previous pass have corresponding fixes, but six actionable issues remain—three cost/admission blockers and three correctness or estimation gaps. Focused PrivateDocumentStore, GroveDB integration, version, and write-once regression tests pass.
Ten distinct findings from CodeRabbit and QuantumExplorer, most of them consequences of the previous round's fixes. ATOMICITY / API * append_many appended valid entries before a later wrong-sized one failed, leaving the store mutated behind an error — no transaction to discard for a direct caller. Every entry is now validated before any is written, with a regression test asserting count, root and stored values are untouched. * append_many reported a sentinel position for empty input (0 on a fresh store, the previous last entry otherwise), indistinguishable from a real append. It now returns a dedicated result carrying `last_global_position: Option<u64>` and `appended`. COST ACCOUNTING * An empty append_many computed both roots but charged neither; the root hashes are now charged unconditionally and only the dense walk stays conditional. * Proof-path state-root derivation was free: compute_current_state_root discarded the dense walk's reads and hashes, and the empty branch did two uncharged blake3 calls. Added cost-bearing variants down through BulkAppendTree (additive; the plain forms delegate and discard exactly as before) and charged the empty branch explicitly. * The dense-root walk READS every filled position; the average-case arm charged one seek and zero loaded bytes, understating I/O by O(epoch). Both terms now scale with the epoch. * A preserved NonCounted wrapper adds one serialized byte that neither replacement estimator counted. Charged unconditionally in both arms — neither the op nor the declared layer records the wrapper, and over-charging one byte is harmless where omitting it is not. BOUNDS * The worst-case byte "bound" counted only the raw epoch payload, missing the 9-byte chunk header, the 37-byte MMR leaf envelope and 33 bytes per internal node — for entry_size = 1 the first compaction already exceeded it. Now included. * saturating_mul silently broke the bound for entry_size >= 65536. entry_size is capped at u16::MAX at all six creation/validation sites, which makes 2^16 * entry_size representable in the u32 added_bytes field so the bound holds for every accepted configuration. An entry larger than 64 KiB is outside this type's design envelope. ESTIMATION LOOKUP * The declared-layer lookup rebuilt the path segment as KeyInfo::KnownKey and used exact equality, but KeyInfo deliberately reports KnownKey and MaxKeySize as unequal — so a layer declared with MaxKeySize was missed and valid estimation failed with PathNotFoundInCacheForEstimatedCosts. It now matches by key bytes. This affects CommitmentTree too, since the mechanism is shared. VERIFICATION * The entry-size violation was recorded with entry().or_insert() at the same path as the child-hash mismatch, so it was silently dropped exactly when both checks failed. It now lands under a dedicated `__pds_entry_size__` sentinel child path, matching the indexed-tree integrity checks. Full --all-features workspace suite green; clippy clean under --all-features.

`compute_current_state_root_with_cost` propagated the dense-tree read cost but fell back to `get_mmr_root()`, which returns a plain `Result` and discards the MMR read's `CostContext`. That fallback is taken exactly when `last_mmr_root` is `None` — the state `from_state` leaves behind — so a REOPENED non-empty tree, which is what proof binding and the integrity walk operate on, undercharged its storage I/O. A gap in the previous commit's own cost fix. Added `BulkAppendTree::get_mmr_root_with_cost` and routed the lazy path through it; the plain `get_mmr_root` now delegates and discards exactly as before, so released callers are unchanged. Testing note: the shared in-memory harness reports `OperationCost::default()` from `get`, so storage seeks and loaded bytes are invisible to crate-level tests — only hash accounting is observable there. The billing itself is asserted against real RocksDB storage by `test_private_document_store_reopened_reads_are_billed`, which proves a terminal store proof and checks it charges seeks and loaded bytes.

These came from CodeRabbit's "outside diff range" findings, which are posted in the REVIEW BODY rather than as inline comments — so an unanswered-inline-comment sweep does not see them. Noting that here because it was the gap that let them sit. CORRECTNESS * `append_many` still computed its bulk root through the plain `compute_current_state_root`, so it re-derived hash counts from a hand-rolled model and dropped the dense walk's real storage reads. It now uses `compute_current_state_root_with_cost` and charges only the composite root on top. * The estimator accepted EITHER append-tree layer type for EITHER op, so a private document store's epoch could be estimated from a commitment tree's declaration (or vice versa) — a confident but wrong figure. The declared layer must now match the op, and a chunk power outside 1..=16 is treated as undeclared, falling through to the loud error rather than being estimated from. DOCUMENTATION THAT HAD GONE STALE * `append_many`'s doc still promised that "on a size violation the entries already appended remain" — untrue since prevalidation landed. It now states the real contract: a size violation writes nothing at all, while a mid-run storage fault is NOT rolled back and needs the caller's transaction. * The `entry_size` constraint was documented as "non-zero" in three places after the cap made it `1..=65535`. TESTS * serde and bincode both reject `entry_size = 0`, `entry_size > 65535`, and `chunk_power` of 0/17, including behind a `NonCounted` wrapper. * The empty-store delete now runs `verify_grovedb`. * Renamed a test that claimed to cover `visualize` but asserted `Display` and `type_str`. DEDUPLICATION * The four PrivateDocumentStore creation rules were written out in both direct-insert versions; the `entry_size` cap had to be applied to each copy separately, which is the drift this invites. Extracted `validate_private_document_store_creation` so a rule change lands once. * Dropped the redundant `first_seen` map in batch preprocessing — `replacements.remove` already yields each store exactly once. Full --all-features workspace suite green; clippy clean under --all-features. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Re-review of 1d2304cf. The latest commit fixed the append_many cost-propagation finding. Five cost-accounting findings remain and are documented inline below. Focused PrivateDocumentStore, GroveDB integration, and version tests pass.
… paths Every figure a caller is billed for an append now matches the work actually performed. Each of these was found by review; none was caught by a test, because the cost assertions in place were loose (`hash_node_calls > 0`), so this also pins the accounting exactly. - `compute_current_state_root_with_cost` double-charged the dense walk. `DenseFixedSizedMerkleTree::hash_node` already bills a value hash and a node hash per filled position, and those reach us through `unwrap_add_cost`; adding `count * 2` on top charged the same work twice. - `PrivateDocumentStore::append` walked the dense buffer twice per entry. `BulkAppendTree::append` computes a dense root inside the insert that nothing reads, then recomputes it for the state root, and returns a plain `Result` so the second walk's reads and hashes are discarded. `append` now runs its single entry through the deferred batch path, which walks once and bills what it walks; the two paths also stop being able to drift apart. - `MMR::get_root` billed the peak reads but not the folds. `bag_peaks` calls `MmrNode::merge` once per extra peak, so a multi-peak root performed uncharged blake3 work. Fixed in the MMR crate rather than at the call site: the live CommitmentTree reaches MMR roots only through paths that discard cost, so no released cost surface moves. - The worst-case seek bound omitted dense reads, counting only the MMR's 64 sibling reads. The dense buffer lives in storage and is read position by position by both the root walk and compaction, so at `chunk_power = 16` a single append can perform ~131k reads. The arm claims to be a genuine upper bound; at three orders of magnitude low it was not one. - Store creation never billed its two hashes. Deriving the empty root performs the config hash and the composite `pds_state` hash, neither visible to `insert_subtree`, which receives a finished array. Charged at all three creation sites (insert v0, insert v1, batch). Tests, each verified to fail without its fix: - exact per-append hash counts, derived from what is hashed rather than asserted loosely - MMR peak-bagging billed for 1, 2, 3 and 7 leaves (0, 0, 1, 2 merges) - creation billing as a difference against a `BulkAppendTree` insert, which starts from `NULL_HASH` and so performs neither hash — the gap is exactly the two under test and survives unrelated Merk cost changes Full --all-features workspace suite green (4806 tests); clippy clean.

Re-review of 2a901395. The five findings from the prior review are fixed. Two remaining cost-accounting gaps were reproduced with targeted boundary probes and are documented inline. The affected MMR, bulk-append, PrivateDocumentStore, and GroveDB focused suites all pass.
codecov/patch failed at 81.86% against a 90% target. Rather than chase the
number, this covers the paths that were genuinely untested — the ones that
decide whether a damaged or misconfigured store is detected or silently
misread. Locally, store.rs goes 87.61% -> 95.26% (72 -> 33 uncovered lines).
Reopening under a wrong config. Building a store and reopening the same bytes
under a different declared `{entry_size, chunk_power}` is exactly what the
config-binding state root exists to stop, and it was untested. A wrong
chunk_power makes a stored chunk's length disagree with the declared epoch; a
wrong entry_size makes every entry the wrong width. Both must read as
corruption, never as a missing document, on both `get_value` and
`verify_entry_sizes`.
Claiming more than storage holds. A store whose `total_count` names chunks or
buffer slots that were never written must refuse rather than report the store
as intact.
Storage faults. `MemStorageContext` gains `fail_reads`/`fail_writes`, so the
arms that only run when the backing store errors mid-operation are reachable
at all. Reads must surface a fault instead of answering "absent" — conflating
the two on an append-only store lets an I/O error look like an empty position
— and a failed write must fail the append rather than return a state root for
bytes that were never stored. The read test reopens first: the dense tree's
write-through cache serves live buffer reads from memory, so a fault injected
on a warm handle proves nothing.
Also drops the duplicated size check in `append`: `append_many` already
validates every entry before writing any and returns the same
`InvalidEntrySize` with the same empty cost, so the second copy was only
another place to drift — and it made its own error arm unreachable. The
`last_global_position` arm becomes an `expect`, since a `None` there is a
broken postcondition in this file rather than anything a caller can produce.
Two arms are left uncovered deliberately, now documented as defensive: the
store's own "missing buffer entry" branch (the dense tree detects the shortfall
against its own count and errors first) and the batch preprocessor's
empty-path and wrong-element-type guards (unreachable given how ops are
grouped).

Two gaps left by the previous cost fixes, both found by review. Compaction was free. `append_many` merged only the root computation's cost; `append_deferred_roots` returned a plain `Result` and unwrapped away the cost contexts from the buffer write, from reading every buffered entry back during `compact_with_value`, and from the MMR push and root. A compacting append at `chunk_power = 2` therefore reported 0 seeks and 0 loaded bytes despite reading all three buffered entries. `append_deferred_roots` and a new `compact_with_value_with_cost` are now cost-bearing, and `append_many` merges what they report. The released `append_no_state_root` path keeps its exact cost shape: `compact_with_value` remains, now as a wrapper that discards the cost inside the bulk crate rather than at its call site. MMR merges were uncharged in two more places. `bag_peaks` is shared, so charging it in `get_root` alone left `gen_proof` folding right-hand peaks for free; `push` likewise merged once per collapsed peak while billing only the sibling reads it fed. Both now charge one hash per merge, matching `get_root`. No live cost surface moves: every non-test caller of `gen_proof` and `push` discards the cost context, and the live CommitmentTree reaches this code only through `compact_with_value`, whose cost is discarded by design. Tests, each verified to fail without its fix: - a compacting append bills its read-back (>= 3 x 8 bytes) and exactly 3 hashes (chunk-blob leaf, bulk root, composite root), and is strictly more expensive in loaded bytes than the buffered append that follows it - `gen_proof` bills 1 merge for three peaks and 0 for one - `push` bills 0, 1, 0, 2 merges across the first four leaves Full --all-features workspace suite green (4814 tests); clippy clean.

Re-review of 540504b0. The two findings from the prior review are fixed. Two cost-accounting regressions remain and are documented inline. Boundary probes reproduced both; the affected MMR, bulk-append, PrivateDocumentStore, and GroveDB MMR/PDS suites otherwise pass.
Two regressions from the previous commit's MMR change, both found by review. Merges were charged twice on the MmrTree paths. Once `MMR::push` began billing one hash per collapsed peak, the direct and batch `mmr_tree.rs` call sites were still adding `hash_count_for_push` — which is the eager leaf hash PLUS those same merges — and then propagating push's cost on top. Both sites now charge only the leaf hash they actually perform, leaving the merges to `push`. The reported hash count omitted peak bagging. `hash_count_for_push` covers the leaf hash and push's merges but not the folds `get_root` performs during a compaction, so once the MMR had more than one peak the counter fell below the cost. `append_deferred_roots` now derives its counter from the accumulated `OperationCost`, which is exactly this append's own hashing, so the two cannot disagree again. That derivation is deliberately scoped to the deferred path. `compact_with_value` and `append_no_state_root` keep returning the model counter, because the live CommitmentTree adds `bulk_result.hash_count` straight into its own `hash_node_calls` — changing it there would move a released cost and would need a version gate. Tests, each verified to fail without its fix: - `mmr_tree_append` over four leaves, asserted as deltas against the first append so the Merk baseline cancels: 0, +1, +1, +2, matching leaf hash + push merges + root bagging per append - `append_many` over 12 entries at chunk_power 2 (three compactions, the last leaving two peaks): the reported `hash_count` equals the billed `hash_node_calls`, on both the batch and single-append paths Full --all-features workspace suite green (4816 tests); clippy clean.

Rereviewed b7aa74f1 (the one-commit delta from 540504b0) and found no new actionable issues.
Both previously reported cost-accounting defects are resolved:
- direct and grouped MmrTree appends now charge the eager leaf hash once and let
MMR::pushbill its own merges; - deferred BulkAppend/PDS hash counts now include peak bagging and agree with the billed
hash_node_calls.
Validation completed:

-D warnings
The review worktree is clean and still matches the PR head.
The MMR cost fixes earlier in this PR changed `hash_node_calls` for `push`,
`get_root` and `gen_proof` unconditionally. That was wrong regardless of who
consumes those costs today: costs become fees, so a node replaying a
historical block has to charge what the block was admitted under. A corrected
charge has to arrive as a new version, not replace the old one in place.
Version plumbing:
- new `MmrVersions { cost: { push, get_root, gen_proof } }` in grovedb-version,
wired into `GroveVersion` alongside `merk_versions`
- GROVE_V1..V3 pin all three to 0 (the shipped accounting: bill the storage
reads a merge consumes, but not the merge); GROVE_V4 selects 1
MMR crate:
- new `cost` module with the usual `mod.rs` / `v0.rs` / `v1.rs` split. It
versions the CHARGE rather than duplicating three algorithms that differ by
one `+=`; the values returned are bit-identical either way, so copying the
bodies would only create somewhere for them to diverge.
- `push`/`get_root`/`gen_proof` keep their signatures and delegate to
`*_with_version(GroveVersion::first())`, so every caller that predates the
gate keeps its released cost by construction rather than by review. One body
each, no duplication.
- `gen_proof` dispatches the charge unconditionally rather than inside its
`bagging_track > 1` branch: the charge is zero when there is nothing to fold,
but an unknown version must still be rejected rather than slipping through
whenever a proof happens not to fold peaks.
Consumers:
- the PDS append path threads the version end to end (`append`, `append_many`,
`compute_current_state_root_with_cost`, and the bulk-append functions this PR
introduced), so V4 gets the corrected charges
- `compact_with_value` and `get_mmr_root` pin to `GroveVersion::first()`. Both
discard the cost, so the choice is unobservable — pinning states that the
released `append_no_state_root` path, and therefore CommitmentTree, must not
pick up a newer charge just because one exists.
- `mmr_tree.rs` goes back to charging `hash_count_for_push` (leaf + collapses)
paired with the unversioned `push`, which is exactly the shipped total; its
`get_root` takes the versioned entry point so only the bagging correction is
gated in. This resolves the earlier double-charge by construction: the merges
are counted once, at the call site, on every version.
CommitmentTree's public API is untouched — no crate that is live gained a
version parameter.
Tests:
- `push`, `get_root` and `gen_proof` asserted under both versions, with the
root/proof compared across versions to pin that only cost moves
- the bare entry points asserted to stay on v0
- unknown charge versions rejected for all three
- the version table itself pinned: V1..V3 at 0, V4 at 1, and
`GroveVersion::first()` on the shipped accounting

A compacting append reported `hash_count_for_push` — the chunk-blob leaf hash
plus one per peak the MMR push collapses — and omitted the peak bagging the
compaction's own `get_root` performs. `CommitmentTree` adds that figure
straight into its `hash_node_calls`, so the shielded pool has been
under-charged one hash per multi-peak compaction since mainnet activation.
Measured before changing anything, per compaction at chunk_power 2:
chunks_after=0 model=1 actual=1
chunks_after=1 model=2 actual=2
chunks_after=3 model=1 actual=2 <- under-charged
chunks_after=4 model=3 actual=3
chunks_after=7 model=1 actual=2 <- under-charged
The gap appears exactly when the MMR has multiple peaks to fold. This is a
live fee, so the correction lands as a version rather than in place:
`bulk_append_tree_versions.cost.compaction_hash_count`, 0 for GROVE_V1..V3 and
1 for GROVE_V4.
The v1 term is derived from the MMR shape via a new
`hash_count_for_root_bagging(mmr_size)` rather than read back out of the
accumulated `OperationCost`. Reading the cost would have made this gate depend
on the MMR crate's own `get_root` charge being enabled for the same version —
true today only because both flip at V4. Deriving it keeps the two gates
independent.
As with the MMR gate, the existing entry points keep their signatures and
delegate to `GroveVersion::first()`, so callers that predate the gate keep the
released figure by construction: `BulkAppendTree::{append, append_no_state_root}`
and `CommitmentTree::{append, append_raw, append_many_raw}` are unchanged for
external callers, each gaining a `*_with_version` sibling. GroveDB's own
commitment-tree and bulk-append operations call the versioned ones, so V4
charges the corrected figure.
Tests:
- a 20-append run at chunk_power 2 under V3 vs V4: identical state roots and
the same number of compactions, v1 never cheaper, and strictly dearer on at
least one multi-peak compaction; GROVE_V1 and GROVE_V3 agree exactly
- a compacting append rejects an unknown charge version
- the version table pinned: V1..V3 at 0, V4 at 1, `first()` on the shipped
figure

`mmr_size_after_push` was initialized to the pre-push size and then unconditionally overwritten inside the MMR block, so the initializer was never read. Declared without one instead; the single assignment after the push is what the bagging term must be computed from. Caught by CI, not locally: the lint job runs `cargo clippy --workspace --all-features -- -D warnings`, which promotes this to an error, while my check counted only lines already starting with "error". Verified against every gate the lint and formatting jobs actually run. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
… methods Collapses the delegating pairs on CommitmentTree (`append`, `append_raw`, `append_many_raw`) and BulkAppendTree (`append`, `append_no_state_root`) into single methods that take `&GroveVersion`. The pairs existed to keep external call sites compiling unchanged, with the bare form pinned to `GroveVersion::first()`. That is a worse default than it looks: a caller gets the shipped cost accounting by omission rather than by decision, and the version a fee is computed under is exactly the thing a caller should have to state. One method that takes the version makes the choice explicit at every site. BulkAppendTree is collapsed alongside CommitmentTree because CommitmentTree calls straight into it — leaving a pinned bare form one layer down would have reintroduced the same implicit default underneath the explicit API. Call sites updated: the grovedb commitment-tree and bulk-append operations already had a version in scope; tests and the seeding bench now pass one explicitly. The MMR crate keeps its `push`/`get_root`/`gen_proof` pairs for now — those bare forms are reached from a dozen internal and bench call sites that have no version to hand, so collapsing them is a larger change than this one.

…proof
Collapses the last delegating pairs. `MMR::{push, get_root, gen_proof}` now
each take `&GroveVersion`; no `*_with_version` sibling remains anywhere in the
workspace.
The pinned bare forms were a bad default for the same reason as the
CommitmentTree ones: a caller got the shipped hash accounting by omission
rather than by decision. Every call site now states the version it is costing
under — including the tests and benches, which pass one explicitly.
Removing the bare forms broke an invariant that was being held implicitly, and
a test caught it. `mmr_tree.rs` charges the eager leaf hash itself and then
calls `push`; that split is version-dependent, because `push` bills its own
merges from v1 on. With no bare form left, the call site was charging
`hash_count_for_push` (leaf + collapses) while `push` also charged the
collapses — the exact double-count this PR fixed earlier, reintroduced.
The split is now explicit rather than implied by which entry point was picked:
`push_call_site_hashes(leaf_count, grove_version)` returns what the caller
still owes — `hash_count_for_push` under v0, just the leaf hash under v1 — so
`call_site + push == 1 + merges` holds under both, and an MmrTree push costs
the same either way. The test that caught the regression pins those totals.
Also drops two now-meaningless assertions that the bare entry points stayed on
v0; there are no bare entry points.
`grovedb`'s verify walk gained the version it needed: `compute_non_merk_child_hash`
takes `&GroveVersion`, threaded from `verify_merk_and_submerks_in_transaction`,
which already had one.
Full CI gate set green: clippy -D warnings, check --all-targets, the verify
feature build, fmt --check, and the --all-features suite (4822 tests).

`validate_private_document_store_creation` takes `total_count` to reject an
element that CLAIMS entries it has no data for. That guard had no test, so
this adds one — and verifies it is load-bearing rather than assuming it.
With the check removed, the direct insert returns `Ok(())` and commits the
element: `Element::PrivateDocumentStore` is a public variant with public
fields, so `total_count` need not come from
`Element::empty_private_document_store`, and one can also arrive by
deserialization. The committed count would then have no backing chunks or
buffer entries — the state root is derived as if empty, so the tree still
verifies as intact while reads of the claimed positions fail.
The test asserts both the direct and batch paths refuse it and that no element
is left at the key. It mirrors the guard the generic tree insert already has
("a tree should be empty at the moment of insertion when not using batches").
Full CI gate set green (4823 tests).

…atch (#814) develop's #787 added `GroveOp::PrivateDocumentStoreInsert`, which `can_mutate_indexed_secondary_row` did not cover. The match is exhaustive on purpose, so the new variant was a compile error in the PR merge commit — exactly the signal it exists to produce. The op is rewritten into `ReplaceNonMerkTreeRoot` by `preprocess_private_document_store_ops` before the level executor runs, so the arm is unreachable in the current pipeline. It answers `true`, matching what the op becomes, which keeps it correct if that preprocessing is ever reordered or removed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

…#814) (#817) * feat: canonical reference rows for indexed-tree secondaries (#814) Replaces the placeholder indexed-secondary row representation with canonical one-hop references back to the primary entry, before indexed trees ship. Every axis now stores the same element family: ReferenceWithSumItem(SiblingReference(primary_key), Some(1), axis_payload_sum) written as a COMBINED reference so the row's committed value hash is combine_hash(H(reference bytes), primary_node_value_hash). Key decisions (per the issue's converged review): - All three axes stay on the dual-aggregate ProvableCountProvableSumTree. A single-aggregate count secondary would reopen the #809 finding-C proof-relabeling forgery, and a plain Reference folds to (1, 0) in a PCPS tree, silently zeroing the #806 band Total. The count axis therefore carries count_value_as_sum(count) as its payload sum. - Rows bind the IMMEDIATE primary node's committed value hash, not a terminal. That keeps the invariant local and mirror-maintainable. This is dedicated indexed-tree behaviour selected explicitly at each call site — ordinary user references keep their terminal contract and diagnostics, and nothing infers the rule from max_reference_hop == 1. - The secondary has no SubtreePath, so reference resolution for rows is purpose-built machinery keyed on the primary's logical path, not the generic path-keyed follow_reference. Write path: - Mirrors track the primary node's value hash alongside (count, sum), so a value-only update — and equally a deep mutation that only moves a child subtree root — refreshes every configured axis. This is the intended write amplification. - Capture widened from can_mutate_child_count to a new can_mutate_indexed_secondary_row: the non-Merk append ops leave (count, sum) alone but rewrite the entry's commitment. The direct MMR append also mirrors its entry, which the propagation walk cannot see because that mutation lands at the start path. Proof path: - Axis proofs resolve rows and emit reference-aware nodes carrying the referenced primary value. The verifier authenticates the canonical reference metadata by reconstructing the expected row bytes from the secondary-key suffix and the node's aggregates and checking them against the committed reference hash — so a row's target, hop budget and carried sum are checked, not assumed. - New Node::KVRefValueHashCountSumWithTargetChildHash carries a layered target's child commitment. Tree-shaped primaries are the NORMAL case under a count-indexed tree, and the existing ref node family cannot express their combined hash. - The count-offset gap is closed rather than bypassed, on both the indexed-axis path and the generic one: the short-circuit now runs a reference post-pass before encoding, and the prover/verifier rejections are replaced by resolution plus authentication. Integrity verification compares the exact canonical row, the reference target against the key suffix, and the row's committed hash against the primary node's current one, with distinct sentinels for non-canonical shape, wrong target, wrong payload sum and stale commitment. Costs: rows are sized from the real canonical row (they scale with the primary key they reference), and the combined-reference write charges its extra hash. Full workspace test suite passes. * feat: authenticate canonical axis rows and resolve them in proofs (#814) Completes the proof and verification half of the reference-row change. **Axis proofs authenticate the canonical row, rather than assuming it.** A verifier never sees a row's reference bytes — only its committed reference hash — so previously it would have been trusting that a committed reference points at the key encoded in the row it sits in. It no longer has to: from the AUTHENTICATED primary value the verifier re-derives the (count, sum) the mirror would have seen, rebuilds both the secondary key and the canonical row those aggregates imply, and compares them against what the proof committed. One comparison covers the ordering prefix, the primary-key suffix, the reference path, the one-hop budget and the carried payload sum. A row filed under `…‖a` whose reference points at `b` cannot verify. Notably this needs no new wire field: everything it uses is already bound to the secondary root. Chain checks now run before row decoding, so a relabeled envelope is still reported as "not for the requested axis" rather than as the downstream row symptom. **Corruption coverage** for each way a row can be wrong, each with its own sentinel: legacy placeholder payload, plain Reference, non-sibling reference, wrong hop budget, wrong target, wrong payload sum, stale commitment. Plus the two write paths that must refresh a row without any aggregate moving (value-only update, deep mutation under a tree entry), a proof-level mis-targeted-row test, and a guard that ordinary user reference chains still resolve to their terminal. **Docs** updated to describe the reference-backed system: the book's secondary-row layout and proof walkthrough, the stale `resolve_values` design text (resolution is now normal read behaviour), the two count-offset comments that claimed a reference post-pass already existed, and the hop=1 well-formed-user contract, which now says explicitly that it governs ordinary references while indexed rows use the immediate-node rule through their own path. Deferred, deliberately: surfacing the resolved Element through the public read and result types (issue #814 Phase 3). The proof authenticates the value today and then drops it, because threading it out is ~500 call sites of pure API churn across 20 test files with no security content — better as its own reviewable change. The authentication itself was not deferrable and is here. Full workspace suite passes (43 targets); clippy warnings one below the pre-change baseline. * fix: refresh canonical rows on every direct non-Merk append (#814) The MMR fix generalised: all four direct non-Merk append APIs (MMR, commitment, bulk-append, dense) share a shape where the updated element is written straight into the primary Merk and propagation starts only afterwards, so the propagation walk — which mirrors entries it discovers as it climbs — never sees the entry that actually moved. That was genuinely a no-op under aggregate-only rows: a non-Merk child contributes a constant count of 1, so an append moved nothing the row was keyed or valued on. Under canonical rows it is not, because the append rewrites the entry's non-Merk root and therefore its commitment. Bulk-append and dense were each leaving one stale row behind. Extracts the per-entry mirror into `capture_indexed_entry_state` + `mirror_indexed_entry_and_seed` rather than repeating it four times, and covers all four APIs in one test — each as its own case, since each has its own copy of the write-then-propagate sequence. * feat: resolved values in indexed reads, via path-proof-free target chains (#814) Ports the genuinely better parts of the alternative implementation in PR #816 while keeping this PR's proof-size property, and drops the merk wire-format change that #816 avoided. **Phase 3 is no longer deferred.** Every non-aggregate indexed read now returns `IndexedAxisEntry { ordering_value, primary_key, value }`, so a top-k result carries values rather than pointers — no follow-up `db.get` per row, and no extra inclusion proof per row for a verified read. A reference-shaped primary resolves to its TERMINAL, exactly as `db.get` on that key would, while the row stays BOUND to the immediate primary node so the mirror's invariant remains local. I previously judged this migration infeasible at ~500 call sites. #816 showed the way with a `PartialEq<(T, Vec<u8>)>` shim; the real cost was ~25 compile errors. The shim is documented as ignoring `value` — it answers "is this row in the right place", not "does it carry the right value" — and `key_pair()` is there for callers that genuinely only rank. Assertions that should check resolved values now do so explicitly, including one that previously could not tell a stale row from a fresh one at a fixed avg sort key. **Target chains replace the proof node variant.** Each returned row carries a chain of `(bytes, IndexedTargetCommitment)` entries — the immediate primary, then any reference hops to the terminal. The commitment enum (`Simple` / `Layered` / `IndexedSingle` / `IndexedMulti` / `Reference`) is #816's idea and it is the right one: it covers every target shape, including the nested indexed trees this PR previously refused with `NotSupported`. Unlike #816, a chain carries NO per-row path proofs. It authenticates itself from the row's own committed hash: each entry's commitment is rebuilt from its bytes plus the next entry's, and the head's is what the row binds. That is the same trust model shipped `KVRefValueHash*` proofs already use — they bind a reference's committed target hash to the returned value without separately proving the target's path inclusion — so a chain is neither weaker nor stronger than reading the same reference through an ordinary proof. Measured on a 32-entry PCIT with tree-shaped children, marginal proof cost per returned row is 83 bytes. Re-proving each primary from the grove root instead costs ~618 bytes/row and makes a k=16 proof 5.5x larger. A regression test pins the per-row figure. Because chains carry the layered commitment, the new merk `Node` variant this PR added is no longer needed: `grovedb-query` encoding, `proofs/tree.rs`, the merk verifiers and the chunk/branch matches are all reverted to develop. The proof wire change is now confined to the unshipped indexed-axis envelope. Full workspace suite passes (43 targets, 2736 grovedb tests); clippy three warnings below the pre-change baseline. * fix: correct reference-chain semantics; adopt #816's API and lint hygiene (#814) Codex's review of #816 vs #817 identified two real correctness defects in this branch's target chains. Both are confirmed, reproduced by new tests, and fixed. It also flagged three hygiene items worth adopting. **Defect 1 — multi-hop chains folded the wrong hash.** A GroveDB reference commits its TERMINAL's value hash, not the next hop's: `follow_reference_get_value_hash` recurses past every intermediate reference before the hash reaches `PutCombinedReference` (batch/mod.rs:2176). The chain fold composed hop-by-hop, which happens to agree at one hop and diverges at two, so the existing one-hop test could not catch it. A two-hop primary failed verification with a spurious "bound to a different primary commitment". The chain is now at most TWO entries — head, and the terminal when the head is a reference. Intermediate hops are not carried at all, because nothing binds them: the head commits the terminal directly, so carrying the middle would hand a verifier bytes it cannot check. **Defect 2 — relative references resolved against the wrong path.** `SiblingReference` appends its key to the path it is given, so that path must be the entry's PARENT. Both the chain builder and the direct-read resolver passed parent‖key, one segment too deep, sending resolution underneath the entry itself. An `UpstreamRootHeightReference` masks this (it truncates to the first N segments and lands in the same place), which is why the existing test passed. A sibling-reference primary failed at prove time with "parent exists but is not a tree". Both now have dedicated tests asserting direct and proved reads agree. **Adopted from #816:** - **Removed the `PartialEq<(T, Vec<u8>)>` shim.** Codex is right that an equality impl silently ignoring `value` lets an assertion keep passing while resolution returns the wrong element. Replaced with an explicit `IndexedAxisEntrySliceExt::key_pairs()` projection, so each call site says which half it compares — and ranking-only callers get a real API instead of a comparison trick. 107 assertions migrated. - **`primary_unreachable_node` / `secondary_unreachable_node` sentinels.** A raw-iterated node the AVL cannot reach is corruption with its own name; silently skipping its commitment check made an operator guess. - **`cargo clippy -D warnings` clean** on grovedb and grovedb-merk. Also removed `CountOffsetReturnedItem::reference_element_hash`, which the chain redesign left set but never read. Full workspace suite passes (43 targets, 2739 grovedb tests). Per-row marginal proof cost unchanged at 83 bytes. * refactor: refresh indexed rows inside the propagation walk (#814) Adopts #816's factoring — the per-entry row refresh moves into the propagation loop, so a typed write path opts in with one call instead of ~20 lines of deferred-seed plumbing. Net −79 lines while adding a call site. The fiddly part was never the mirror; it was the deferred per-axis root state. Single-axis variants seed one slot and PCPSIT another, and seeding the wrong one leaves state set for an iteration with no indexed element to apply it to. That belongs in the one place already managing it. **This caught a fifth write path I had missed.** `replace_subtree_root` rewrites an entry in place and then propagates, exactly like the four non-Merk appends, so it left the canonical row bound to a commitment that no longer existed. #816 covers it; I did not. That is the factoring argument demonstrated rather than asserted: with the refresh inside the walk a new caller is one line and cannot forget, whereas per-call-site plumbing makes every new site opt-in and missable — which is how I missed this one. **Kept the old-state capture rather than refreshing in place.** #816's in-loop refresh passes the same aggregates on both sides, which only rewrites the row at its existing key. That is sound for the non-Merk appends, whose aggregates provably cannot change, but not for `replace_subtree_root`: its element is CALLER-SUPPLIED, so its aggregates — and therefore the row's sort key — can differ from what was there, and an in-place refresh would strand the old row at the old key. Callers capture pre-rewrite state with `capture_indexed_entry_state` (one line) and the walk applies a full old → new transition. The new test states a count the subtree's contents do not support, which moves the sort key. It asserts the row MOVED and that no indexed-row sentinel appears — while deliberately tolerating the child's own aggregate mismatch, which is the hash-vs-state correctness this unsafe API hands to the caller. Reverting the fix makes it fail with the row stranded at the old count, so it tests what it claims to. Default suite: 43 targets, 2739 grovedb tests. With `unsafe-dump-load`: 2742. `clippy -D warnings` passes on both feature sets. Per-row proof cost unchanged at 83 bytes. * fix: keep the verify-only build compiling (#814) CI's `cargo clippy --workspace --all-features -- -D warnings` was failing on four unresolved imports, and the cause was worse than a lint: this branch broke `--no-default-features --features verify` outright. That is the light-client build — no storage, no transactions — so a verify-only consumer could not compile the crate at all. Two things were reaching into `minimal`-gated code from modules that must survive without it: - `target_chain.rs` was entirely unconditional, but BUILDING a chain reads storage. Split it: the builder moves behind `minimal`, while `shape_commitment` / `authenticate_target_chain` stay unconditional. Authenticating a chain is pure arithmetic over bytes the proof already carries, which is exactly what a light client needs. - The axis verifier rebuilds the canonical row a proof claims, so it needs the row definition — which lived in the `minimal`-gated write path. Moved the pure helpers (`axis_row_reference`, `axis_payload_sum`, `make_axis_secondary_key`, `axis_sort_key_len`, `count_value_as_sum`, `INDEXED_SECONDARY_MAX_HOP`) into a new verify-available `indexed_axis::canonical_row`, re-exported from `indexed_tree` so every existing write-path caller is unchanged. The placement matters for the property, not just the build: a light client rebuilds the row from the SAME definition the mirror wrote with, which is what makes the check meaningful rather than a restatement of whatever the prover sent. `clippy --workspace --all-features -- -D warnings` passes; the verify-only build has zero errors; 2739 grovedb tests pass. * fix: address CodeRabbit review — read consistency, cost sizing, hop bound (#814) Seven valid findings from the review. Several others referenced code this branch has since deleted (`reference_resolution.rs`) or reverted (the merk `Node` variant), so they no longer apply. **Corruption was being read as absence, in three places.** All three built `Option<IndexedEntryState>` with `value_hash.map(...)`, collapsing "the entry does not exist" and "the entry exists but its node is unreachable from the committed root" into the same `None`. On the new side that hands the mirror `None` and DELETES a live row; on the old side it skips the delete of a row that moved. Both now fail loudly, matching what the propagation path already did for the identical condition. **Indexed reads used two snapshots.** `resolve_axis_entries` built its own `TxRef`, so with `transaction: None` the primary resolution ran under a different snapshot than the secondary scan that produced the rows. A commit in between could pair a stale row with a newer primary value, or report a primary the row still names as corrupted. It now takes the caller's transaction and passes it to `follow_reference` too. **The secondary layer was described as `AllItems`.** Its rows are `ReferenceWithSumItem`, and the two variants carry different element overheads (+3 vs +15), so every row was under-charged by 12 bytes. `added_bytes` is the one dimension a storage-fee reservation must never come in under. **A reference in a `ProvableCountSumTree` hard-errored.** That host is eligible for count-offset pagination but commits only the count into its node hash, so its feature type is `ProvableCountedSummedMerkNode` — which the post-pass did not match. It now takes the count-only node, the same variant `emit_returned_node` picks for that host's directly-valued rows. Mutation-checked: reverting the arm makes the new test fail with the original error. **The chain builder allowed one hop more than `follow_reference`.** `0..=MAX_REFERENCE_HOPS` let the prover build a chain `db.get` would refuse. Now `0..`. Also: the paginated verify path now runs the layer binding before row decoding, matching the range path, so both name the same defect for the same forgery; `assert_only_issue` asserts row-sentinel exclusivity (scoped to `__cidx_*`, since damaging a row legitimately moves the element's H1-A binding too); the commitment-tree append — the one non-Merk append live on mainnet — is now covered alongside the other three; and the book's verified-result type is corrected to `AxisEntries`. 43 targets, 2740 grovedb tests (2743 with `unsafe-dump-load`). `clippy --workspace --all-features -- -D warnings` passes; verify-only build clean. * fix: drop a dead binding left by the paginated verify reorder (#814) `cargo clippy --workspace --all-features -- -D warnings` — the exact CI command — caught it; my earlier per-crate --lib runs did not. * fix: gate a test-only trait import behind the feature that uses it (#814) `IndexedAxisEntrySliceExt` was imported at module scope but only used by the `unsafe-dump-load`-gated test, so a default-feature `--all-targets` build saw an unused import. Moved into the gated test body. CI's lint (`--workspace --all-features`, no `--all-targets`) did not cover this; CodeRabbit's `--tests` run did. * test: adversarial coverage for the resolved-target chain (#814) An indexed-axis proof hands the verifier the primary value a row points at WITHOUT a per-row inclusion proof. That saving rests on one narrow claim — the row's committed hash is bound into the secondary root, and the chain reconstructs that hash from its own bytes, so no substitution survives. The claim was argued in comments and demonstrated only by the honest path; now it is attacked directly. Twelve tests take an honest proof, decode the envelope, change exactly one thing about a chain, re-encode, and require refusal: - the resolved primary value, and the TERMINAL a reference resolves to (the attacks the design exists to stop); - the reference head itself; - a layered commitment downgraded to `Simple`, and a tampered layered child root (the element bytes stay honest, so only the fold can catch these); - a directly-valued head promoted to `Reference` with an attacker terminal appended; - a reference head with its terminal stripped, an over-long chain, an empty chain, a chain-count mismatch; - two rows' chains SWAPPED — both chains well-formed, both values genuinely in the tree, so only the per-row binding catches it. Mutation-checked so the suite is known to be discriminating rather than incidentally green: disabling the commitment comparison in `authenticate_axis_row` fails 7 of the 12, including every value substitution across all commitment shapes. The other 5 are shape guards that fire earlier, which is the intended ordering. This is the evidence for the design choice the two competing implementations disagree on. It does not settle whether per-hop path proofs buy something else — they do attest a target's current location — but it does show the returned value is unforgeable without them. 2752 grovedb tests; `clippy --workspace --all-features -- -D warnings` passes. * fix: carry the count for ProvableCountSumTree references in V1 proofs (#814) A `ProvableCountSumTree` hashes via `node_hash_with_count` — only PCPS binds the sum in — so its references need the COUNT exactly as a `ProvableCountTree`'s do. The V1 reference dispatch matched only `ProvableCountedMerkNode`, so a reference in such a tree downgraded to the aggregateless `KVRefValueHash` and the host's node hash could not be reconstructed. The proof verified nowhere. Reproduced on develop with identical hashes, so this is pre-existing and not introduced by the indexed-tree work. It surfaced because I fixed the same defect in the count-offset dispatch last round and the ordinary path was left inconsistent with it. Mutation-checked: reverting the arm reproduces the original "V1 mismatch in lower layer hash". **V0 has the identical defect and is deliberately untouched.** V0 is shipped, consensus-frozen wire format; changing what it emits is a different kind of decision from fixing a bug, and it wants its own review rather than riding along in this PR. Nothing is lost by waiting: no valid proof exists for this shape under V0 today either, so the case is unreachable through a verifying client on both envelopes. Recorded in the new test's doc comment so the asymmetry is visible rather than implied. 2753 grovedb tests; `clippy --workspace --all-features -- -D warnings` passes. * fix: cover PrivateDocumentStoreInsert in the indexed-row exhaustive match (#814) develop's #787 added `GroveOp::PrivateDocumentStoreInsert`, which `can_mutate_indexed_secondary_row` did not cover. The match is exhaustive on purpose, so the new variant was a compile error in the PR merge commit — exactly the signal it exists to produce. The op is rewritten into `ReplaceNonMerkTreeRoot` by `preprocess_private_document_store_ops` before the level executor runs, so the arm is unreachable in the current pipeline. It answers `true`, matching what the op becomes, which keeps it correct if that preprocessing is ever reordered or removed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * test: cover the multi-axis nested primary and two chain-shape guards (#814) Three paths the patch left untested, all reachable and worth testing on their own merit rather than for the metric: - A nested PCPSIT primary entry. A multi-axis indexed tree folds an axes DIGEST into its commitment where a single-axis one folds a bare secondary root, so it is a distinct commitment shape; a chain that rebuilt it as single-axis would not reproduce the row's hash. - A directly-valued head carrying a terminal, and a terminal that is itself a reference. These are the two chain-shape guards the existing tamper cases did not reach — the mirrors of the head-promotion and stripped-terminal cases already covered. The two new tamper cases assert on the specific rejection message, so they prove the intended guard fired rather than any guard. Adds `assert_rejected_because` for that. Also renames `mis_targeted` to `mistargeted` in an existing case: the typos hook scans the whole file once it is touched, and flagged it. Not covered, deliberately: the `KVRefValueHashCount{,Sum}` arms of the count-offset verifier. The count-offset prover emits `KVValueHashFeatureType` for reference rows (emit.rs:598), so those arms are defensive against proofs the honest prover cannot produce. The end-to-end reference-resolution behaviour they guard is already covered by `count_offset_resolves_reference_entries_to_their_target` and its count-sum sibling. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix: guard unconsumed deferred_axes, not just deferred_secondary (#814) `deferred_secondary` and `deferred_axes` are set mutually exclusively by the same code path — single-axis (PCIT/PSIT) sets the former, PCPSIT the latter — and both are consumed by the same loop. The end-of-walk guard checked only `deferred_secondary`, so a walk that reached the root with per-axis state still staged returned Ok(()) instead of failing. That is the identical corruption the existing check catches, undetected for PCPSIT alone. Kept as a separate check with its own message so a report says WHICH half was stranded. The new test mirrors the single-axis one and is mutation-checked: disabling the guard makes it fail. Reported by CodeRabbit. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * fix: charge the mirror's bracketing primary reads in average-case estimates (#814) The batch mirror brackets the primary apply with a pre- and a post-state read of each touched entry (read_entry_aggregates, pre and post), each a Merk::get plus a Merk::get_value_hash on the primary node — the node's STORED hash is what the row must bind, and for tree- or reference-shaped entries it is a combined hash that cannot be recomputed from the element bytes. Those four node fetches per touched key were not charged, so the estimate was not a categorical superset of the write path on the seek_count / storage_loaded_bytes axes (in practice it stayed over because merk-open charges dominate, but by accident, not construction). Charged at the caller's per-key loop rather than inside average_case_indexed_secondary_mirror: the reads are per-KEY while that function is per-axis additive — one capture feeds every axis's rewrite — and the standalone mirror-cost coverage tests pin that additivity. Worst-case is untouched on purpose: its indexed gap is broader and already documented as a KNOWN GAP (WorstCaseLayerInformation cannot even identify an indexed primary). Also adds the spec §8 write-amplification fixtures: a value-only update (same count, same sum, different bytes) on PCIT and on a three-axis PCPSIT, each asserting the estimate does not come in under actual on seeks, loaded bytes, added bytes, combined written bytes, and hash calls. These are the estimated-vs-actual cases most tempted to assume "aggregates unchanged ⇒ no secondary write". Write bytes are asserted as added+replaced combined because the estimator models the row rewrite as delete+insert while the real apply replaces in place — the split differs by construction, the total must not. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * test: RefreshReference swallow case, direct-vs-batch append equality, wrapper boundary (#814) Three review follow-ups, each pinning a case the suite asserted only adjacently: - A batch RefreshReference on a reference-shaped primary whose aggregates do NOT move — the "old_entry == new_entry swallow" the issue's §3 names. The refresh re-binds the primary's combined hash to the terminal's new value while (count, sum) stays put, so an aggregate-only mirror comparison would strand a stale row. RefreshReference reaches the mirror through its own op arm, so the Replace-based value-only tests did not cover it. Also asserts the intermediate state: an external terminal update alone must NOT stale the row — that locality is the point of the immediate-binding rule. - Each non-Merk append (MMR, bulk, commitment, dense) produces the IDENTICAL grove through the direct API and the batch op. The two entry points are separate implementations of the same mutation — the direct APIs refresh the row inside the propagation walk, the batch path through the mirror — so root-hash equality is the cheapest guard that they stay in sync. - A NonCounted-wrapped child is REJECTED by an indexed primary, on both write doors. This pins a boundary rather than a behaviour: direct and proved reads build their returned value differently, so a wrapper that could live in a primary would need its own read-equivalence coverage (a divergence of exactly this shape exists in the competing #816). No such coverage is needed BECAUSE the merk layer refuses wrappers in Provable* count trees; if that guard is ever relaxed, this test fails and says what to add. Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> * docs: give the book's verify examples the real signatures (#814) The three verify_indexed_count_* examples in the count-indexed-tree chapter predate the final API and dropped arguments — top_k's example omitted `descending` and `grove_version`, and both query examples omitted `expected_limit` and `grove_version`. Copying either would not compile. Now byte-matched to the shipped signatures, with the limit bound positionally the same way the prover was called.

What this adds
A new non-Merk tree element for Platform's phase-one private documents: an append-only store of fixed-size opaque entries whose committed config
{entry_size, chunk_power}is bound into the state root. GroveDB never interprets a "document" — behaviorally the type is fully generic.grovedb-private-document-store— thin wrapper overBulkAppendTree(the CommitmentTree relationship, minus the Sinsemilla frontier): size-validated append, get-by-position across buffer/chunk tiers, entry-size integrity walk, and the config-binding rootblake3("pds_state" || blake3("pds_config" || entry_size_be || chunk_power) || bulk_state_root). The config-independent innerEMPTY_BULK_APPEND_TREE_STATE_ROOTis precomputed with a runtime-equivalence test (mirroringEMPTY_COMMITMENT_TREE_STATE_ROOT), plus a pinned composite vector; since the root binds the config, the full empty root is a function of the config.grovedb/src/operations/private_document_store.rs, modeled on the commitment-tree/bulk-append ops):private_document_store_insert/_get_value/_count, plus thePrivateDocumentStoreInsertbatch op with a preprocess pass folding grouped appends into oneReplaceNonMerkTreeRoot(NonMerkTreeMeta::PrivateDocumentStore). Batch and direct appends converge to the same root hash (tested).PRIVATE_DOCUMENT_STORE_COST_SIZE(9 + 5 + 1 + 2) in merk, average/worst-case arms for the batch op mirroringBulkAppendplus the composite-root blake3.Discriminant allocation (differs from the issue text)
Issue #784 proposed 15/143, but byte 15 is the
Element::NonCountedwrapper discriminant and 143 (=0x80|15) is rejected as wrapper-on-wrapper; 21–23/149–151 and TreeType 13–15 are taken by the indexed trees on develop. The next genuinely free pair under the +128 convention:ElementType::PrivateDocumentStore/NonCountedPrivateDocumentStore0x80|24)Element::PrivateDocumentStore(total_count, entry_size, chunk_power, flags)TreeType::PrivateDocumentStore(chunk_power)GroveOp::PrivateDocumentStoreInsert { entry }Fail-closed versioning
A new
GroveDBOperationsPrivateDocumentStoreVersionsfamily acts as a capability gate (a first for this codebase): every slot is 0 on GROVE_V1..V3 — element creation (direct and batch) and all operations return a version-mismatch error — and 1 on GROVE_V4.Element::deserializeintentionally stays protocol-independent per the append-only codec contract. Slot values are pinned by tests and V3 rejection is covered end to end.Immutability
No per-entry delete or update exists, and — stricter than the other non-Merk trees — the store's always-empty Merk rejects all child-element inserts at the merk chokepoints (
validate_insertable_into,insert_reference/insert_subtree/insert_count_indexed_subtree) and in batchexecute_ops_on_path.Proof policy
V0 (locked wire format) rejects subqueries into the type, like the other non-Merk trees; V1 rejects subqueries too for now — range-read proofs are the follow-up planned at the
BulkAppendTreelayer so the anchoredDataCommitmentTree(#783) inherits them — while terminal queries bind the config-carrying state root viabind_terminal_non_merk_tree(round-trip tested for empty and populated stores, empty case using the config-parametrized empty root).Verification
cargo fmt --allclean; clippy reports nothing in any touched file.minimal,verify-only, and crate no-default feature builds check clean.Left for follow-ups per scope: range-read proofs (item 4), benches (9), grovedbg (10), and the replication/state-sync gap the issue notes the type inherits.
