Summary

First slice of #6999, which is being split into reviewable pieces. Part of #6990.

Rebuilding the request-history index ran on the serving event loop: one rebuild of a 2.34 GB ledger froze every provider for 487 s. With this change, a full rebuild of a ledger of 1 MiB or more runs on a Bun Worker, and the proxy keeps serving while it runs.

  • Worker build. rebuild-worker.ts (driven by rebuild-job.ts) creates a private <index>.rebuild-<pid>-<n> file, ingests the ledger snapshot the refresh recorded, switches the file to WAL and closes it. The serving thread then closes the old index and renames the build over it, so readers never see a partial index. Rows appended during the build are picked up as a normal tail afterwards.
  • Shared ingest. The ingest code moves unchanged from indexer.ts to ingest.ts, so the worker and the inline path write identical rows and meta. It gains an end offset (index the recorded snapshot) and a ledger identity check (a replaced ledger fails the build as stale, and the refresh restarts against the new file).
  • Readers. openRequestHistoryIndex() and the management/analytics routes wait for the build without blocking the loop. The routing-time openRequestHistoryIndexSync() never waits: it starts the build if needed and throws RequestHistoryIndexBusyError. health.ts already catches that and treats the evidence as unknown, and its 1.5 s cache TTL picks up the new index soon after the swap.
  • Lifecycle. closeRequestHistoryIndex() discards an in-flight build, rejects waiting readers with RequestHistoryIndexClosedError, and removes the build files only after the worker thread has exited. A worker also sweeps build files left by dead processes. A failed build (other than a replaced ledger) is not retried by routing-time reads for 30 s, so a persistent failure cannot spawn a worker per routing decision. If a worker cannot be spawned at all, the rebuild runs inline as before.
  • Registered as request-history-rebuild-worker in scripts/build-standalone.ts so compiled binaries embed it.

Ledgers under 1 MiB keep the existing inline rebuild. Known limits, left to later slices of #6999: the swap (close, unlink, rename) and the per-refresh quick_check still run on the serving thread, tails and checkpoints stay inline, and a close during a build surfaces as a 500 rather than a 503 at the management boundary.

Verification

  • New tests/usage/request-history-rebuild-worker.test.ts (9 tests): the worker build equals the inline build on an edge-case ledger (malformed, oversized, blank and partial lines); a timer runs during a worker rebuild and does not during the inline control; sync reads report busy and then use the swapped index; appends during the build arrive as a tail; a replaced ledger restarts the build; a close rejects readers and leaves no build files; the history endpoint waits and answers 200; dead-process build files are swept and own ones kept; a stale build fails and removes its file. Passed 3/3 consecutive runs. Removing the close-lifetime check or the ledger identity check makes the matching test fail.
  • Existing request-history-index, health-scoring, routing-analytics, route-explainability: 61 pass.
  • Layout, Lab boundary, structure SSOT, repo hygiene and file-size ratchet tests: 115 pass.
  • bun run test:changed (1,300 files via the import graph): 29,411 pass / 10 fail. Rerun alone, the failing files behave the same on unmodified dev: sibling-home-client-sync times out on both, and service, service-sqlite-home and cli-access-audio-live pass alone (load-sensitive under the parallel run). The full bun run test was not run locally because test:changed already covered most of the tree through the import graph. Full coverage is left to CI.
  • bun run typecheck, bun run structure:check, bun run privacy:scan: pass.

Checklist

  • Scope stays focused and avoids unrelated cleanup.
  • Docs or release notes were updated when needed. (docs-site routing reference, structure/dashboard-and-usage.md)
  • Security-sensitive changes were reviewed for secrets, auth, and unsafe defaults. (No auth or credential paths; privacy scan green.)

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Performance
    • Large request-history indexes now rebuild in the background, helping the proxy continue serving requests during rebuilds.
  • Behavior
    • History queries wait for an active rebuild to finish. Routing reads may report history as unavailable while a rebuild is in progress or shortly after a rebuild failure.
  • Documentation
    • Clarified how background rebuilding affects history queries and routing decisions.

#6990)

Split from #6999. A full rebuild of a ledger of at least 1 MiB runs on a
Bun Worker that writes a private build file; the serving thread swaps it
in once complete. Async readers wait without blocking the event loop; the
routing-time sync entry throws RequestHistoryIndexBusyError, which health
scoring already reads as unknown evidence. Ingest moves to ingest.ts so
the worker and the inline path share it.

📝 Walkthrough

For request-history ledgers at least 1 MiB, index rebuilds now run in a worker thread using a private SQLite build file. The indexer coordinates synchronous and asynchronous readers, handles close and failure cases, and retains an inline fallback. The change also extracts ingestion logic and adds tests and documentation.

Changes: Request-history index rebuild

Layer / File(s) Summary
Ledger ingestion and private index construction
src/routing/history/ingest.ts, src/routing/history/build-file.ts
Adds bounded JSONL ingestion with source identity checks, and creates private SQLite index files from a ledger revision. Build-file cleanup also removes side files and abandoned builds.
Worker protocol and lifecycle
src/routing/history/rebuild-protocol.ts, src/routing/history/rebuild-worker.ts, src/routing/history/rebuild-job.ts, scripts/build-standalone.ts
Adds the worker message protocol and worker job lifecycle. The worker builds the private index and returns the row count; the standalone build includes the worker entry.
Indexer rebuild coordination
src/routing/history/indexer.ts
Uses the worker for eligible ledger rebuilds, installs completed build files, and falls back to inline rebuilding when needed. Synchronous reads report busy during a worker rebuild; asynchronous opens wait, subject to a build limit. Closing the index invalidates in-flight builds.
Regression coverage and documented behavior
tests/usage/request-history-rebuild-worker.test.ts, docs-site/src/content/docs/reference/configuration/routing.md, structure/dashboard-and-usage.md, structure/INDEX.md, structure/manifest.json
Adds coverage for rebuild results, reader behavior, ledger changes, close handling, and cleanup. Updates documentation and source mappings to describe the worker rebuild flow.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to be935

A worker failure can leave request history unavailable for large ledgers. Add an inline recovery path for asynchronous readers before merging, while keeping routing-time reads nonblocking.

Maintainer integration into dev under the MAINTAINERS.md dev-bypass policy (non-UI change, no release).

Exact-head evidence for 95140a1830906c4f9b44ac19df774d70ac64a75d: 23 required Ubuntu checks pass (test shards 1–4, gates, structure gate, docker smoke, storage policy, api usage, npm-global, keyring, docs site build, hygiene, enforce-target, CodeRabbit). The 7 skipped jobs are macOS/Windows, which run only on release lines by policy. Both Codex findings (async wait limit, structure source map) and the CodeRabbit finding (inline fallback after a worker failure) are fixed with regression tests; CodeRabbit confirmed its fix. No outstanding maintainer objections; no auth, credential or workflow paths touched.

… colliding (#7089)

* fix(usage): keep usage-ledger file ids exact so Windows NTFS ids stop colliding

UsageLogRevision carried dev and ino as JS Numbers. NTFS file ids put a
sequence number in their high bits and routinely exceed 2^53, so two
different ledger files could round to the same Number and pass every
identity check: the history indexer, the ingest tail guard, the cooperative
ledger scanner and ledger retention would all treat a replaced ledger as the
recorded one. This is what made the stale-ledger build case fail on Windows
CI (#7070).

Read dev/ino through bigint fstat (exactFileIdentity) and carry them as
exact decimal strings end to end, including the schema_meta source identity,
following the Aside profile precedent in #3842. Indexes written by an older
build stored rounded values and rebuild once on mismatch.

The stale-ledger test goes back to perturbing ino, now exactly, and asserts
the revision matches bigint stats.

* docs(usage): describe exact ledger file identity and index rebuilds

* test(usage): cover colliding NTFS ids and legacy metadata reuse
