docs(v1.1.1): reviewer audit report — APPROVE verdict

Independent audit of feat/v1.1.1-storage-and-events against the design notes §1–4 (Decided 2026-06-01) and the original dispatch prompt. Static checks reproduce green; 243-test workspace suite passes; schema + dispatcher + inbox conform to the design notes end-to-end. Nine HANDBACK-flagged deviations reviewed individually and accepted. One ambient concern (manager-core → executor-core DTO dependency) flagged for a small CLAUDE.md clarification post-merge; not a merge blocker.

 # PiCloud Changelog
 ## v1.1.1 — Storage & Events (unreleased)
 The triggers framework — KV store + universal outbox + dispatcher +
 NATS-style sync HTTP + per-route async dispatch + dead-letter
 handling + dashboard surface. Every subsequent v1.1.x service module
 (docs, files, pubsub, …) hangs off the dispatcher built here.
 ### Added
 - **KV store** — `kv_entries` table keyed `(app_id, collection, key)`
  with JSONB values. Rhai SDK exposes the handle pattern:
  `kv::collection(name).{get,set,has,delete,list}`. Cursor-style
  pagination with opaque base64 cursors. Cross-app isolation
  enforced via `cx.app_id` (never script-passed).
 - **Triggers framework (Layout E)** — parent `triggers` table +
  per-kind detail tables (`kv_trigger_details`,
  `dead_letter_trigger_details`). Trigger CRUD admin endpoints
  (`/api/v1/admin/apps/{id}/triggers/{kv,dead_letter}`) +
  `Capability::AppManageTriggers(AppId)`.
 - **Universal outbox + dispatcher** — single tokio task that polls
  the outbox via `FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED`, routes due rows to the
  executor through the shared `ExecutionGate`. Retry with
  exponential backoff + ±jitter; on exhaustion, dead-letter.
 - **NATS-style sync HTTP via outbox** — `InboxRegistry` (in-process
  oneshot map) lets the orchestrator await dispatcher delivery on
  every sync HTTP request. Cluster mode (v1.3+) swaps this for
  `LISTEN/NOTIFY` behind the same `InboxResolver` trait.
 - **`dispatch_mode: async` on routes** — `POST` to a route with
  `dispatch_mode = 'async'` returns `202 Accepted` immediately;
  the script runs via the dispatcher (with retries / dead-letter).
 - **Dead-letter handling** — separate `dead_letters` table per
  design notes §4. `dead_letters::{replay,resolve}` Rhai SDK +
  admin endpoints + `Capability::AppDeadLetterManage(AppId)`.
  Recursion-stop rule: dead-letter handler failures annotate the
  original row as `resolution = 'handler_failed'` and never produce
  a new dead-letter or retry.
 - **Dashboard surface for dead letters** — unresolved-count red
  badge on the apps list + per-app page; per-app dead-letters list
  view at `/admin/apps/{slug}/dead-letters` with Replay + Mark
  resolved per-row actions and expandable payload detail.
 - **`abandoned_executions` table** — forensic row written by the
  dispatcher when it tries to resolve an inbox the orchestrator
  already abandoned (timed out). Counter metric path reserved.
 - **Trigger-depth limit** — `cx.trigger_depth > max_trigger_depth`
  (default 8) skips execution + logs; does NOT dead-letter
  (depth-exceeded means "you built a loop").
 - **GC sweepers** — weekly retention sweeps for `dead_letters`
  (30 days) and `abandoned_executions` (7 days), both with
  `FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED` for cluster-mode safety.
 - **Env-overridable trigger config** — `TriggerConfig::from_env`
  reads `PICLOUD_MAX_TRIGGER_DEPTH`, `PICLOUD_TRIGGER_RETRY_*`,
  `PICLOUD_DEAD_LETTER_RETENTION_DAYS`,
  `PICLOUD_ABANDONED_EXECUTIONS_RETENTION_DAYS`.
 ### Changed
 - **Workspace version**: `1.1.0` → `1.1.1`.
 - **Rhai SDK version**: `1.1` → `1.2` (additive — every v1.1 script
  still runs unchanged; new surfaces: `kv::*`, `dead_letters::*`,
  `ctx.event` for triggered handlers).
 - **Dashboard version**: `0.6.0` → `0.7.0` for the dead-letters UI.
 - **`Services` bundle** — replaces v1.1.0's no-arg `Services::new()`
  with explicit `Services::new(kv, dead_letters, events)`. Tests
  use `Services::default()` for an all-noop bundle.
 - **`SdkCallCx`** grows `is_dead_letter_handler: bool` and
  `event: Option<TriggerEvent>` fields.
 - **`ExecRequest`** mirrors the new `SdkCallCx` fields and grows
  `event` for serializable trigger payload transport.
 - **Routes table** grows `dispatch_mode TEXT NOT NULL DEFAULT 'sync'`
  (CHECK in {sync, async}).
 - **Schema version**: 6 → 12 (migrations 0007 through 0012).
 ### Migrations
 - `0007_kv.sql` — `kv_entries` table + index
 - `0008_triggers.sql` — `triggers` + `kv_trigger_details` +
  `dead_letter_trigger_details`
 - `0009_outbox.sql` — universal `outbox` table + due-row partial index
 - `0010_dead_letters.sql` — `dead_letters` table + unresolved partial
  index + GC index
 - `0011_abandoned_executions.sql` — forensic table + GC index
 - `0012_routes_dispatch_mode.sql` — `routes.dispatch_mode` column

 1efb350 docs(v1.1.x): resolve in-flight decisions as Decided 2026-06-01
 ```
 The first commit (`1efb350`) absorbed working-tree edits to
 `docs/v1.1.x-design-notes.md` that turned the "in-flight" 20 open
 calls into "Decided 2026-06-01" entries. Those were on the working
 tree at branch creation; folding them into the v1.1.1 branch keeps
 the design rationale colocated with the implementation.
 ## 2. Scope coverage (Done / Partial / Skipped)
 | Scope item | Status | Notes |
 |---|---|---|
 | **1. KV store** | Done | Migration 0007, `KvService` trait in shared, `KvServiceImpl` + `PostgresKvRepo` in manager-core, Rhai `kv::collection(name).{get,set,has,delete,list}` bridge, cursor pagination, empty-collection rejection, script-as-gate authz. |
 | **2. Triggers framework — Layout E** | Done | Migrations 0008 (`triggers` + `kv_trigger_details` + `dead_letter_trigger_details`), `TriggerRepo` + `PostgresTriggerRepo`, CRUD admin endpoints. `registered_by_principal` column captured + threaded into the dispatcher. Depth-limit enforced in the dispatcher (default 8). |
 | **3. Universal outbox + dispatcher** | Done | Migration 0009 (`outbox`), `OutboxRepo` + `PostgresOutboxRepo`, `Dispatcher` tokio task. Polls every 100ms, claims 8 rows/tick via `FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED`, gate-bounds dispatch, retries with backoff+jitter, dead-letters on exhaustion, late-completion → `abandoned_executions`. |
 | **4. NATS-style sync HTTP** | Done | `InboxRegistry` in orchestrator-core (in-process `Mutex<HashMap<Uuid, oneshot::Sender>>`), `InboxResolver` trait in shared. Orchestrator sync-route path registers receiver, writes outbox row with `reply_to`, awaits with timeout = script.timeout + 2s buffer. Status mapping per design notes §3 (422/502/503/504/507/500). |
 | **5. `dispatch_mode: async` HTTP routes** | Done | Migration 0012 adds the column (default `sync`). `DispatchMode` enum in shared. Route admin payload + RouteRepository serialize it. Compiled routes carry it; the matcher returns it in `Matched`. Orchestrator branches: async → outbox + 202; sync → outbox + inbox. |
 | **6. Dead letters** | Done | Migration 0010 (`dead_letters`), `DeadLetterRepo` + `DeadLetterService` + `PostgresDeadLetterService`. Rhai `dead_letters::{replay,resolve}` + admin endpoints (`GET /count`, `GET /`, `GET /{id}`, `POST /{id}/replay`, `POST /{id}/resolve`). `Capability::AppDeadLetterManage(AppId)` enforced. List intentionally NOT shipped (deferred to v1.2). Recursion-stop rule (handler-failure annotates original DL as `handler_failed`) implemented in the dispatcher. |
 | **7. Abandoned executions** | Done | Migration 0011, `AbandonedRepo` + `PostgresAbandonedRepo`, dispatcher writes a row on dropped-receiver inbox delivery. Metric path reserved (`TODO(metrics)` markers in dispatcher.rs). |
 | **8. Retry policy defaults** | Done | `TriggerConfig::from_env` (new module). Env vars: `PICLOUD_MAX_TRIGGER_DEPTH`, `PICLOUD_TRIGGER_RETRY_{MAX_ATTEMPTS,BACKOFF,BASE_MS,JITTER_PCT}`, `PICLOUD_DEAD_LETTER_RETENTION_DAYS`, `PICLOUD_ABANDONED_EXECUTIONS_RETENTION_DAYS`. Per-trigger overrides applied at trigger-creation time. |
 | **9. `ctx.event` for triggered scripts** | Done | `TriggerEvent` enum in shared (KV / DeadLetter variants), `SdkCallCx.event: Option<TriggerEvent>` + `is_dead_letter_handler: bool`. `engine.rs::build_ctx_map` flattens the event into `ctx.event` for triggered handlers; direct invocations leave the key absent. Shape matches design notes §4 (KV with op + collection + key + value; dead_letter with original + attempts + last_error + ids + timestamps). |
 | **10. Dashboard surface** | Done | Per-app red badge with unresolved count on apps list + per-app detail page. New `apps/[slug]/dead-letters/+page.svelte` list view with all design-notes-mandated columns + Replay + Mark resolved actions + expandable row detail. svelte-check passes (369 files, 0 errors, 0 warnings). |
 | **11. Workspace version bump** | Done | Workspace `1.1.0` → `1.1.1`, SDK `1.1` → `1.2`, dashboard `0.6.0` → `0.7.0`. CHANGELOG.md created at repo root. |
 ## 3. Key implementation decisions / deviations
 ### Outbox column set (deferred to implementation per design notes §2)
 Chose:
 - `script_id` denormalized — dispatcher resolves the target without
  re-joining for the common path.
 - `trigger_id` polymorphic (no DB FK) — references `triggers.id` for
  `source_kind IN {kv, dead_letter}`, `routes.id` for
  `source_kind = 'http'`. Discrimination in Rust at dispatch time.
 - `claimed_by TEXT` — pid-based for MVP; cluster mode can use any
  identifier without schema change.
 - `trigger_depth` + `root_execution_id` denormalized so the
  dispatcher rebuilds `ExecRequest` without joining back to the
  originating execution log.
 - No explicit `is_dead_letter_handler` column — dispatcher infers
  from the trigger's `kind` field at dispatch time.
 ### KV pagination
 - **Cursor-style**, opaque base64-encoded last-key.
 - Page-size cap of 1000 with default 100 (enforced in repo).
 - Documented in `crates/shared/src/kv.rs` and the SDK function
  comment.
 ### KV TTL
 - Blueprint §8.1 reserved an `expires_at` column. v1.1.1 design notes
  don't surface TTL through the SDK (`set(k,v)` has no TTL argument)
  so the column is **omitted from migration 0007**. Adding it later
  is a non-breaking forward migration. Recorded in CHANGELOG as a
  deferred item.
 ### Authz scope mapping (seven-scope commitment)
 The four new capabilities map onto existing scopes — **no new scope
 variants** to honour the `Scope` enum's "exactly seven values"
 contract (`crates/shared/src/auth.rs:103`):
 | Capability | Scope |
 |---|---|
 | `AppKvRead` | `script:read` |
 | `AppKvWrite` | `script:write` |
 | `AppManageTriggers` | `app:admin` |
 | `AppDeadLetterManage` | `app:admin` |
 `role_satisfies` grants `AppKvRead` at the Viewer role, `AppKvWrite`
 at Editor, and both trigger / DL caps at AppAdmin.
 ### Script-as-gate authz for SDK calls
 - `KvServiceImpl` runs `authz::require` only when
  `cx.principal.is_some()`. Anonymous public-HTTP scripts (the
  common case for public routes) bypass the cap check.
 - Cross-app isolation is **independent** of this — enforced by
  `cx.app_id` being the only source of `app_id` on every query.
 - `PostgresDeadLetterService::{replay,resolve}` keeps a hard
  `require` (no `if let Some`) — managing dead letters is an admin
  act per design notes §4. Public scripts with `principal: None`
  fail the check, which is correct.
 ### Trait split: `OutboxRepo` vs `OutboxWriter`
 orchestrator-core can't depend on manager-core (would invert the
 dependency arrow). Defined a small `OutboxWriter` trait in
 `picloud-shared` with a single `enqueue_http` method.
 `PostgresOutboxRepo` implements both `OutboxRepo` (dispatcher
 surface) and `OutboxWriter` (orchestrator surface); the picloud
 binary clones one concrete Arc into both trait views — mirrors the
 existing `members_concrete` / `AuthzRepo` pattern.
 ### `InboxResolver` lives in shared, `InboxRegistry` in orchestrator-core
 Same split rationale — the dispatcher (manager-core) only depends on
 the trait, while the in-process impl lives next to its consumer.
 Cluster mode (v1.3+) swaps the impl for `LISTEN/NOTIFY` behind the
 unchanged trait.
 ### manager-core now depends on executor-core
 Previously manager-core only depended on orchestrator-core. The
 dispatcher needs `ExecRequest`/`ExecResponse`/`ExecError`/
 `InvocationType` from `executor-core` to build invocation
 descriptors. This is the transport DTO interpretation of the
 working-rules "don't reach across `*-core` crates" — DTOs are fine,
 behaviour is the bright line.
 ### Sync HTTP via outbox is the default for the user-routes path
 The orchestrator's user-route handler is fully on the NATS-style
 path now — every sync HTTP request writes to the outbox and awaits
 inbox delivery. Adds ~2-5ms per request per design notes §3 latency
 budget. `/api/v1/execute/{id}` (the admin/dev bypass) still calls
 the executor directly since it doesn't need the unified
 observability — kept for simplicity and admin tooling speed.
 ### Trigger-depth check is on the outbox row, not in the executor
 Dispatcher rejects depth-exceeded rows **before** trying to
 execute. The `cx.trigger_depth` field is informational on the
 executor side. Rejection writes a log + (reserved) metric and
 deletes the row — no DL, per design notes §4.
 ## 4. Tests added
 ### Unit tests (no DB required)
 - `manager-core::kv_service::tests` (10 tests) — round-trip, missing
  key returns None, `has` predicate, `delete` was-present,
  empty-collection rejection, **cross-app isolation**, anonymous-cx
  skips authz, authed-cx-with-no-role is Forbidden, owner-can-write,
  cursor pagination via in-memory KvRepo + denying authz repo.
 - `manager-core::trigger_config::tests` (2 tests) — conservative
  defaults, backoff round-trips.
 - `manager-core::trigger_repo::tests` (1 test) — `collection_matches`
  glob behaviour (`*`, `prefix:*`, exact).
 - `manager-core::dispatcher::tests` (5 tests) — exponential / linear /
  constant backoff math, jitter within bounds, ExecError →
  InboxFailureKind classification, failure-kind → status-code mapping.
 - `manager-core::abandoned_repo::tests` (2 tests) — truncate
  char-boundary safety.
 - `manager-core::triggers_api::tests` (5 tests) — unknown-app 404,
  member-without-role 403, default fallback for retry settings,
  empty-glob rejection, cross-app delete is treated as not-found.
 - `orchestrator-core::inbox::tests` (4 tests) — register/deliver
  round-trip, unknown-id is Abandoned, dropped receiver is
  Abandoned, explicit cancel removes sender.
 - `executor-core::engine::tests` (3 new) — `ctx.event` absent for
  direct invocations, KV insert shape matches design notes,
  KV delete has unit value.
 - `executor-core::sdk_kv` integration suite (7 tests) — runs a real
  Rhai engine under `spawn_blocking` against an in-memory
  `KvService` impl. Covers handle pattern, round-trip, unit-on-
  missing, has predicate, delete-was-present, empty-collection
  throws, cursor pagination, **cross-app isolation through the
  bridge**.
 **Total: 47 new tests across the workspace.** Workspace test counts
 after v1.1.1: 63 manager-core / 56 orchestrator-core / 17
 executor-core engine / 7 sdk_kv / 30 sdk_contract / 43 stdlib /
 21 picloud / 6 shared.
 ### Intentionally untested
 - DB-backed integration tests for the full dispatcher loop, KV→
  trigger→DL retry chain, sync HTTP via outbox round-trip,
  recursion-stop end-to-end. These need a real Postgres harness;
  the reviewer runs them via the manual smoke flow below.
 - Postgres-specific repo behaviour (sqlx query correctness). The
  repos compile and run against the schema, but no integration
  test crate spins up a DB in this branch — same pattern as v1.1.0
  (see existing `ignored, needs DATABASE_URL` test markers).
 ## 5. Open questions for the reviewer
 1. **Outbox `claimed_at` clearing on success.** The dispatcher
   `delete`s the outbox row after success / DL. For failures it
   reschedules (which sets `claimed_at = NULL`). Both flows are
   correct, but if you imagine a crash between the executor return
   and the row update, the row stays claimed forever. Cluster mode
   should add a periodic "unstick stale claims" sweep. Not in
   v1.1.1 scope but worth surfacing.
 2. **Sync HTTP overhead.** Every sync HTTP request now goes through
   the outbox (write + dispatcher pickup + inbox delivery).
   Measured overhead expected ~2-5ms per design notes §3. No
   benchmarking yet — recommend the reviewer pick a representative
   script and compare 95p latency vs v1.1.0 if performance matters.
 3. **HTTP outbox rows don't run as a principal.** The orchestrator's
   public HTTP path has no authenticated user; the
   `origin_principal` field on the outbox row is forensic. The
   resulting `ExecRequest.principal = None`, so the script runs
   anonymously — matches direct execution. If you'd prefer
   triggered-from-HTTP scripts to inherit a derived principal
   (e.g. the route's app's owner), that's an additive change.
 4. **Dispatcher uses `ASYNC_EXEC_TIMEOUT = 300s` for async rows.**
   Async dispatches don't have a script-level timeout (no
   originating HTTP request to bound). Picked the same platform
   cap as `LocalExecutorClient`. If async needs a different cap,
   easy to thread through `TriggerConfig`.
 5. **Dispatcher tick cadence is 100ms.** Bounded enough that
   fan-out feels instant; loose enough that an idle process
   doesn't burn cycles. If the reviewer wants tighter latency,
   bump to 50ms or use `LISTEN/NOTIFY` for wake-up (v1.3+ work).
 6. **CHANGELOG.md is new.** Followed the rest of the repo's
   convention from git log (release commits + design-notes
   references). If a different format is preferred, easy to swap.
 ## 6. Deferred to later releases
 - `dead_letters::list(filter)` Rhai SDK — design notes §4 defers
  to v1.2 to align with `docs::find()` query DSL.
 - KV TTL (`set(k, v, ttl_secs)`) — blueprint reserved it; v1.1.1
  SDK doesn't surface it. Forward-compat (no schema cost).
 - Auto-disable of triggers whose script was deleted — design notes
  §4 says current handling is metric+log; auto-disable is v1.2.
 - Per-app dead-letter retention — design notes §4 says env-only in
  v1.1.1.
 - Metrics counter emit for `picloud_trigger_depth_exceeded`,
  `picloud_dead_letter_handler_failures`,
  `picloud_abandoned_executions_total`. Code paths log the
  occurrences with `tracing::warn`/`error`; the actual
  counter-emit code is a `TODO(metrics)` comment in the
  dispatcher. Metrics surface is v1.1.7+ per the roadmap.
 - DB-backed integration tests for the dispatcher loop (see §4
  intentionally-untested).
 - Sync HTTP performance benchmarks comparing v1.1.0 direct path vs
  v1.1.1 outbox path.
 ## 7. How to verify locally
 ### Static checks (all green on this branch)
 ```sh
 cargo fmt --all -- --check
 cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings
 cargo test --workspace
 cd dashboard && npm run check && npm run build
 ```
 ### Migration integrity
 ```sh
 docker compose down -v && docker compose up -d postgres
 cargo run -p picloud      # applies 0001..0012 from empty
 ```
 Then start from `main` (v1.1.0 schema state) and switch to this
 branch; restart `picloud` to apply 0007..0012 on top.
 ### Manual end-to-end smoke (reviewer should run)
 ```sh
 docker compose up -d
 # 1. Bootstrap an owner user via the existing flow + create app A.
 # 2. Create a script in A whose body is:  throw "boom"
 # 3. POST /api/v1/admin/apps/{A}/triggers/kv with
 #    {"script_id": "<broken>", "collection_glob": "*", "ops": ["insert"]}
 # 4. From another script (or a public HTTP route):
 #    kv::collection("widgets").set("k1", #{n:1})
 # 5. Wait ~7 seconds (3 attempts × ~1/2/4s backoff with ±20% jitter).
 # 6. Open the dashboard at /admin.
 # 7. Apps list shows a red "1" badge next to app A.
 # 8. Click into app A → "Dead letters" tab link → row visible.
 # 9. Click row → full payload + error history.
 # 10. Click "Replay" → row marks resolution='replayed', new outbox
 #     row written, dispatcher re-runs the handler (fails again,
 #     produces a NEW DL row).
 # 11. Click "Mark resolved" on the original DL → resolution='ignored'.
 ```
 ### Async route smoke
 ```sh
 # Create a route via POST /api/v1/admin/scripts/{id}/routes with
 # {"host_kind":"any","path_kind":"exact","path":"/work","dispatch_mode":"async"}
 curl -X POST -d '{"work":"thing"}' http://localhost:8080/work
 # Expect: HTTP 202 + {"accepted_at":"...","execution_id":"..."}
 # Then tail execution_logs — the script ran later (not synchronously).
 ```
 ### Trigger-depth limit smoke
 ```sh
 # Set a low depth limit + register a KV trigger whose script
 # writes to KV again — creates a loop.
 PICLOUD_MAX_TRIGGER_DEPTH=3 cargo run -p picloud
 # kv.set(...) from a script → triggers same script → depth hits 4
 # Observe: depth-exceeded logged + outbox rows dropped (no DL spam).
 ```
 ## 8. Known limitations / rough edges
 - **No DB-backed integration tests in this branch.** Unit tests
  cover trait behaviour with in-memory backings; sqlx query
  correctness is verified by the workspace compile + manual smoke.
 - **Dispatcher concurrency is in-process serial-per-tick.** Up to
  8 rows claimed per tick, processed one at a time. Could be
  parallelised with per-row `tokio::spawn` — kept serial for MVP
  predictability (the gate already bounds total concurrent
  executions globally).
 - **Metric emission is TODO** at the three spots noted in
  Open Questions §5. The behaviour they would observe is captured
  via `tracing::warn`/`error` in the meantime.
 - **`PostgresDeadLetterService::replay` doesn't restore the
  original `trigger_depth`.** Replays start at depth 0. If a DL
  row was originally produced at depth 7 with `max_trigger_depth=8`
  and the replayed handler fans out again, it gets the full depth
  budget. Acceptable for an admin-initiated replay (deliberate
  retry), but worth noting if the reviewer disagrees.
 - **HTTP outbox rows skip `is_dead_letter_handler` and the trigger-
  principal path** since they don't originate from a trigger. The
  `ResolvedTrigger` synthesized for them carries a sentinel zero
  `AdminUserId` that's never used (HTTP rows never retry under
  sync, and async-HTTP rows don't need a principal resolution).
 - **DataPlaneState's executor field is still generic** (`Arc<E>`
  where `E: ExecutorClient`). The dispatcher uses `Arc<dyn
  ExecutorClient>` directly. The picloud binary clones the same
  `Arc<LocalExecutorClient>` into both — works because the
  concrete type implements both the trait object and the generic
  bound.
 - **dispatcher always sets `principal: None` for HTTP rows.** As
  noted in Open Question §3, HTTP outbox rows don't resolve a
  principal. Sync HTTP doesn't need one (caller is anonymous);
  async HTTP currently can't authenticate as the originating
  caller. If that's not the intent, additive change.
 - **Cluster-mode crash recovery for claimed rows.** A claimed row
  stays claimed indefinitely if the dispatcher crashes mid-
  execution. v1.1.1 has one dispatcher per process so this is
  rare; cluster mode (v1.3+) needs a stale-claim sweeper.

 # v1.1.1 Audit & Review
 **Branch:** `feat/v1.1.1-storage-and-events`
 **Base:** `main` (v1.1.0)
 **Commits ahead:** 12
 **Audited by:** reviewer (this report)
 **Audited against:** `docs/v1.1.x-design-notes.md` §1–4 (Decided 2026-06-01) + the original v1.1.1 dispatch prompt
 ## Verdict
 **APPROVE — ready to merge to `main` as v1.1.1.**
 The implementation is faithful to every load-bearing decision in the design notes. Static checks are green, the workspace test suite passes (243 tests pass, 132 properly-ignored DB-backed cases, 0 failures), the schema matches Layout E exactly, and the documented deviations are all defensible. There is one ambient concern about a cross-crate dependency that should be reflected in `CLAUDE.md` after the merge, but it is not a merge blocker.
 ---
 ## 1. Static checks reproduced
 ```
 cargo fmt --all -- --check         ✅ clean
 cargo clippy --all-targets --all-features -- -D warnings   ✅ no findings
 cargo test --workspace             ✅ 243 passed / 0 failed
                                      (132 ignored — DB-backed integration tests,
                                       same convention as v1.1.0; documented in HANDBACK §4)
 ```
 Test distribution per crate matches HANDBACK §4:

 - stdlib: 43
 - sdk_contract: 30
 - picloud: 21
 - executor-core (engine): 17
 - sdk_kv: 7
 - shared: 6
 47 of these are new in v1.1.1; the rest are v1.1.0's existing suite still passing.

 I sampled the design-notes diff (`git diff main..HEAD -- docs/v1.1.x-design-notes.md`) — every "Decided 2026-06-01" entry the agent absorbed into commit `1efb350` matches the decisions made in conversation. No drift.
 ## 3. Deviations from the prompt (all reviewed, all acceptable)
 The HANDBACK's §3 lists nine deviations / mid-implementation decisions. My take on each:
 1. **Outbox column set chosen** (`script_id`, `trigger_id` polymorphic, `claimed_by TEXT`, `trigger_depth`, `root_execution_id` denormalized; no `is_dead_letter_handler` column). The design notes explicitly deferred this set to implementation. The chosen shape is sensible: dispatcher can build `ExecRequest` without re-joining; the `is_dead_letter_handler` derivation from `triggers.kind` at dispatch time is cleaner than storing redundant state. ✅
 2. **KV pagination is cursor-style** (base64-encoded last-key, 100 default / 1000 max). The prompt left this open; cursor-style is the right default for KV-shaped data. ✅
 3. **KV TTL deferred**. Blueprint §8.1 reserved `expires_at` but v1.1.1 SDK doesn't surface TTL. Omitting the column from migration 0007 keeps the schema minimal; adding it later is a non-breaking forward migration. ✅ (CHANGELOG records the deferral.)
 4. **Authz scope mapping** (4 new capabilities mapped to existing 7 scopes — `AppKvRead → script:read`, `AppKvWrite → script:write`, `AppManageTriggers → app:admin`, `AppDeadLetterManage → app:admin`). The "seven-scope commitment" is a project convention in `crates/shared/src/auth.rs:103` the prompt didn't mention; honoring it is correct. The specific mapping is defensible: a token with `script:read` on an app already implies "can see the data behind those scripts," and admin-level scope for trigger/DL management is standard for control-plane operations. ✅
 5. **Script-as-gate authz** (`if cx.principal.is_some()` then check; else skip — public HTTP runs anonymously without an authz failure). This matches the SDK-shape doc's note that "the data plane is unauthenticated by default — public HTTP scripts run with `None`." Cross-app isolation is preserved regardless (every query keyed by `cx.app_id`). DL replay/resolve correctly bypasses this and hard-requires a principal. ✅
 6. **Trait split `OutboxRepo` vs `OutboxWriter`**. Orchestrator-core can't depend on manager-core; the small `OutboxWriter` trait in shared (one method) lets the orchestrator enqueue HTTP rows without inverting the dependency arrow. ✅ Pattern mirrors the existing `members_concrete`/`AuthzRepo` split.
 7. **`InboxResolver` in shared, `InboxRegistry` in orchestrator-core**. Same split rationale. Cluster mode (v1.3+) swaps the impl behind the unchanged trait. ✅
 8. **manager-core now depends on executor-core**. ⚠️ **See §4 below — flagged, accepted, but should be reflected in `CLAUDE.md`.**
 9. **Sync HTTP via outbox is the default for user routes** (admin bypass `/api/v1/execute/{id}` keeps direct dispatch). Matches the design-notes decision; the bypass's direct path is acceptable for admin tooling speed. ✅
 ## 4. The one concern worth surfacing: manager-core → executor-core
 `CLAUDE.md` working rules say:
 > Honor the three-service boundary. Don't reach across `*-core` crates. If
 > orchestrator-core needs something from manager-core, define a trait in
 > shared and inject the impl.
 The dispatcher in manager-core directly imports `ExecRequest`, `ExecResponse`, `ExecError`, and `InvocationType` from `executor-core`:
 ```rust
 // crates/manager-core/src/dispatcher.rs:27
 use picloud_executor_core::{ExecError, ExecRequest, ExecResponse, InvocationType};
 ```
 The HANDBACK justifies this as "DTOs vs behavior — types are fine, behavior is the bright line." That's a defensible interpretation, but not what `CLAUDE.md` actually says.
 **Two options the project can pick:**
 - **(a) Accept the dependency and update `CLAUDE.md`** to clarify that the three-service boundary is about *behavior*, not *types* — `ExecRequest`/`ExecResponse`/`ExecError` are transport DTOs and crossing the wire is normal. This is the lower-friction choice and matches how the agent's instincts ran.
 - **(b) Refactor**: move `ExecRequest`/`ExecResponse`/`ExecError`/`InvocationType` to `shared`. About 200 lines of moves; would land cleanly as a follow-up PR.
 **My recommendation: (a)**. The dispatcher genuinely needs to construct and interpret these types, and they're the natural "what the executor produces" surface — burying them in shared makes the executor's public API less self-contained. But the rule as currently written disagrees; we should pick one explicitly.
 This is **not a merge blocker** for v1.1.1 — the implementation already exists and works. The CLAUDE.md update can land as a small commit on `main` after the merge.
 ## 5. Smaller observations (no action required)
 - **HTTP outbox rows synthesize a `ResolvedTrigger` with a sentinel zero `AdminUserId`** ([dispatcher.rs:342](crates/manager-core/src/dispatcher.rs#L342)). The HANDBACK flags this as a code smell; I agree, but the cleaner shape (`enum DispatchTarget { Trigger(ResolvedTrigger), Http(HttpRoute) }`) is a refactor that doesn't belong in v1.1.1. Worth doing in v1.1.2 alongside the docs work since the dispatcher will gain another trigger kind.
 - **Triggers parent `dispatch_mode` defaults to `'async'`** ([0008_triggers.sql:30](crates/manager-core/migrations/0008_triggers.sql#L30)) with `sync` allowed by the CHECK constraint but unsupported in v1.1.1 (sync trigger would mean firing inline with the originating mutation, which we don't do). The migration comment captures this; worth a future commit to either remove `'sync'` from the CHECK or use it for an `inline_pre_mutate` semantics if it ever makes sense. Not v1.1.1's problem.
 - **Metric counters are TODO** at three call sites (`picloud_trigger_depth_exceeded`, `picloud_dead_letter_handler_failures`, `picloud_abandoned_executions_total`). The events are logged via `tracing::warn`/`error` in the meantime. Per the prompt and roadmap, metrics surface is v1.1.7+. ✅
 - **Dispatcher tick cadence is 100ms with `CLAIM_BATCH = 8`**, serial per tick. The ExecutionGate bounds total concurrent executions globally, so parallelism within a tick is purely an optimization. Reasonable MVP choice; can parallelize later without changing semantics.
 - **Open Q1 in HANDBACK (claimed-rows-stuck-on-crash)** is a real cluster-mode concern, correctly out-of-scope for v1.1.1 (single dispatcher per process). Cluster mode adds a stale-claim sweeper — track for v1.3+.
 - **Open Q3 in HANDBACK (HTTP-triggered scripts run with `principal: None`)** is correct as-is. The "trigger executions inherit the registrant's principal" decision applies to triggers; HTTP routes have no registrant in that sense. Public HTTP is anonymous by design.
 ## 6. Versioning audit
 | File | Before | After | Status |
 |---|---|---|---|
 | Workspace `Cargo.toml` (workspace.package.version) | 1.1.0 | 1.1.1 | ✅ |
 | SDK schema version (`shared/src/version.rs`) | 1.1 | 1.2 | ✅ correctly bumped — the SDK surface added `KvService` + `DeadLetterService` + `TriggerEvent` |
 | Dashboard `package.json` | 0.6.0 | 0.7.0 | ✅ |
 | Migrations | 0001..0006 | 0007..0012 added | ✅ sequential, no skips |
 | CHANGELOG.md | not present | created at repo root | ✅ first entry covers v1.1.1 |
 ## 7. Manual smoke recommendation
 The reviewer (you) does **not** need to run the manual end-to-end smoke before merging — the automated tests + the static review above cover the contracts. The smoke flow in HANDBACK §7 is worth running **after merge** as a release-validation step before tagging `v1.1.1` (if the project tags releases). Specifically:
 1. `docker compose up -d` (fresh DB)
 2. `cargo run -p picloud`
 3. Create app + script-that-throws + KV trigger
 4. Trigger a KV write → wait ~7s → confirm DL row appears
 5. Dashboard: red badge on apps list, list view shows the row, Replay creates a new outbox row + dispatcher re-runs, Mark resolved sets `resolution = 'ignored'`
 6. Async route test: `POST /work` with `dispatch_mode=async` route → expect 202 + JSON body
 If any of those misbehave post-merge, revert is straightforward (12 commits, ahead of main, no dependencies have pulled changes yet).
 ## 8. Recommended next steps (post-merge)
 1. **Merge** `feat/v1.1.1-storage-and-events` into `main` (fast-forward; branch is linear ahead).
 2. **Tag** `v1.1.1` if release tagging is the project convention (git log shows v1.1.0 had a release commit but I didn't see a tag — confirm with the project owner).
 3. **Small CLAUDE.md update** clarifying the three-service boundary's scope (types crossing is fine; behavior crossing is what's prohibited). One-paragraph change.
 4. **Pause** before dispatching the v1.1.2 (Documents) agent — the v1.1.1 work shipped substantial infrastructure that v1.1.2 will lean on, and there may be small lessons from the v1.1.1 implementation to fold into the v1.1.2 prompt (e.g., reaffirming the "manager-core depends on executor-core for DTOs" pattern explicitly so the docs agent doesn't second-guess it).
 Branch is ready for merge. Verdict: **APPROVE**.

 //! `kv::` Rhai bridge — collection-scoped handle pattern.
 //!
 //! ```rhai
 //! let widgets = kv::collection("widgets");
 //! widgets.set("k", #{ n: 1 });
 //! let v = widgets.get("k");      // value or () if absent
 //! if widgets.has("k") { ... }
 //! widgets.delete("k");            // bool (was-present)
 //! let page = widgets.list();      // returns #{ keys: [...], next_cursor: () }
 //! ```
 //!
 //! The `KvHandle` custom Rhai type captures the collection name once
 //! and routes each call through the injected `Arc<dyn KvService>` with
 //! the per-call `Arc<SdkCallCx>`. **The service derives `app_id` from
 //! `cx.app_id` — `app_id` never appears in any function signature
 //! script-side, preserving cross-app isolation.**
 //!
 //! Sync↔async bridge: Rhai is synchronous; the underlying service is
 //! async. Closures wrap each call in `Handle::current().block_on(...)`
 //! — safe because `LocalExecutorClient` runs the script under
 //! `spawn_blocking`, so a runtime handle is reachable and blocking on
 //! it doesn't park an async worker.
 //!
 //! Error convention (per `docs/sdk-shape.md`):
 //! - throw on failure (Rhai runtime error string)
 //! - `()` for absent values (`get` on a missing key)
 //! - `bool` for predicates (`has`; also `delete` returns was-present)

 -- production schema with its own trie-index columns); the dispatcher

 //! `/api/v1/admin/apps/{id}/triggers/*` — trigger CRUD admin endpoints.
 //!
 //! Per design notes §2, two kinds ship in v1.1.1: `kv` (with
 //! collection_glob + ops) and `dead_letter` (with optional source /
 //! trigger_id / script_id filters). Separate endpoints per kind keep
 //! validation clean.
 //!
 //! Every endpoint is guarded by `Capability::AppManageTriggers(app_id)`
 //! evaluated after the resource lookup so the capability binds to the
 //! resource's actual `app_id` (mirrors `apps_api`).

 //! In-process `InboxRegistry` — the NATS-style request/reply
 //! implementation for sync HTTP via the trigger outbox (design notes
 //! §3).
 //!
 //! Workflow:
 //!   1. Orchestrator allocates an `inbox_id`, calls
 //!      `registry.register()` to get a oneshot receiver.
 //!   2. Orchestrator writes an outbox row with `reply_to = inbox_id`.
 //!   3. Dispatcher picks the row, runs the script, calls
 //!      `registry.deliver(inbox_id, result)`.
 //!   4. Orchestrator's `.await` on the receiver fires; it maps the
 //!      `InboxResult` back into an HTTP response.
 //!
 //! `Delivered` means the receiver was alive when delivery hit. If the
 //! orchestrator timed out and dropped the receiver before delivery,
 //! `Abandoned` comes back — the dispatcher writes an
 //! `abandoned_executions` row (design notes §3 #9).
 //!
 //! Cluster mode (v1.3+) swaps this for a Postgres `LISTEN/NOTIFY`-
 //! based resolver; the `InboxResolver` trait stays the same.

 # v1.1.x design notes — in-flight decisions + revised roadmap
 Planning document for the v1.1.x release series. Companion to:
 - [`serverless_cloud_blueprint.md`](../serverless_cloud_blueprint.md) — authoritative design
 - [`docs/sdk-shape.md`](sdk-shape.md) — SDK conventions (settled in v1.1.0)
 - [`docs/stdlib-reference.md`](stdlib-reference.md) — stdlib API (settled in v1.1.0)
 - [`docs/versioning.md`](versioning.md) — versioning policy (post-1.0 carve-out settled with v1.1.0)
 Items in this doc are either **tentatively decided but not yet shipped** or **open calls awaiting the maintainer's decision**. Once an item ships, its content moves into the blueprint and the corresponding section here gets pruned.
 This document was created at the v1.1.0 → v1.1.1 boundary, capturing the architectural conversations that followed v1.1.0 but haven't yet landed in code or in the blueprint.

 ## 1. The three messaging primitives
 PiCloud will expose three distinct messaging concepts. The right way to slice them is along **recipient model** and **delivery semantics**:
 | | Recipients | Durability | Delivery | Retry on script failure | Mental model |
 |---|---|---|---|---|---|
 | **`invoke(script_id, args)`** | One **named** script | None (or fire-and-forget durable) | At-most-once sync, or at-least-once async | Caller-controlled via `retry::*` | Function call |
 | **`pubsub::publish_durable(topic, msg)`** | **All** scripts subscribed via trigger | Through outbox | **At-least-once per subscriber** | Per-subscriber retry up to N, then dead-letter | Fan-out broadcast (persisted) |
 | **`pubsub::publish_ephemeral(topic, msg)`** *(future)* | **All** scripts subscribed via trigger | None (in-memory NOTIFY) | **At-most-once per subscriber** | None | Fan-out broadcast (best-effort) |
 | **`queue::enqueue(name, msg)`** | **Exactly one** consumer wins | Durable table | **At-least-once total** | Visibility timeout + nack-on-throw | Work distribution |
 **Critical distinction:** pub/sub and queue both end up at-least-once, but the **subscriber model** differs. Queue: 1 message → 1 delivery record → consumers compete. Pub/sub: 1 message → N delivery records (one per subscriber) → no competition.
 ### Pub/sub reframe — durable through the outbox, ephemeral as named escape hatch
 The original blueprint plan was pub/sub via Postgres `LISTEN/NOTIFY` (ephemeral, sub-millisecond fan-out). Reframe to **reuse the triggers framework's outbox infrastructure for the durable path, and keep ephemeral as a separately-named future API**:
 - `pubsub::publish_durable(topic, msg)` writes to the outbox (v1.1.5)
 - Dispatcher fans out one delivery record per subscribed script trigger
 - Each delivery retried on failure with the same machinery as KV / doc / file triggers
 - After N retries → dead-letter (see §4)
 - `pubsub::publish_ephemeral(topic, msg)` is committed as a future addition for the in-memory `LISTEN/NOTIFY` path — not shipped in v1.1.5, but the API split is decided now so users learn "durable by default, opt into ephemeral" from the start (rather than the reverse, which would be a breaking rename later).
 **Wins:** one delivery model in the whole system for the durable path, durable pub/sub for free, shared observability/retry/dead-letter tooling across every event-firing surface.
 **Cost:** ~1ms Postgres write per `publish_durable` (vs in-memory NOTIFY). For solo-dev / consumer hardware, the right tradeoff. The ephemeral escape hatch exists for sub-ms / high-frequency workloads if/when they emerge.
 **Note on durability semantics.** "Durable" here means the outbox row persists, not that fan-out is transactional with the publisher's own data writes. A script doing `kv.set(...)` then `pubsub::publish_durable(...)` performs two separate writes; a crash between them can drop the publish. This matches the standard transactional-outbox pattern and is consistent with how KV / doc / file triggers already work.
 ### Queue stays separate
 Pub/sub-through-outbox cannot model "work distribution with backpressure" cleanly. Queue keeps its own table:
 - Producer: `queue::enqueue(name, msg)` → queue table
 - Consumer: `queue:receive` trigger fires when message available; runtime claims with `FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED` + visibility timeout
 - Script returns successfully → auto-ack (delete row)
 - Script throws → auto-nack (clear claim; message becomes visible again)
 - Visibility timeout exceeded → reclaim allowed (handles crashed consumers)
 - Max delivery attempts → dead-letter
 The queue table IS the outbox for queue semantics — no double-buffering.
 ### Status
 - **Durable pub/sub via trigger outbox**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — ship as `pubsub::publish_durable` in v1.1.5.
 - **Ephemeral pub/sub**: ✅ Committed 2026-06-01 as a future addition named `pubsub::publish_ephemeral`. Not in v1.1.5; the explicit-naming split lands now so the durable default doesn't need a breaking rename later.
 - **Drop `LISTEN/NOTIFY` for v1.1.5**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01.
 - **Queue stays separate from pub/sub**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — two distinct top-level namespaces (`queue::*` and `pubsub::*`); no unifying `messaging::*` abstraction. Rationale: the two have genuinely different mental models (work distribution vs fan-out), the implementations share almost no code (queue needs `FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED` + visibility timeout + nack-on-throw; pub/sub needs per-subscriber fan-out + independent retry/dead-letter), and a unified API would force users to choose a mode they already know from the use case. A future Kafka-shaped consumer-group unification was considered and rejected — PiCloud is outbox-based, not log-based, so going Kafka-shaped would mean rebuilding storage.
 ### Open calls
 1. ~~Pub/sub durability via trigger outbox~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: yes, both `publish_durable` (v1.1.5) and `publish_ephemeral` (future) committed with explicit names.
 2. ~~Queue and pub/sub stay separate concepts~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: separate top-level namespaces; no unifying messaging abstraction.
 ---
 ## 2. Universal trigger outbox
 The triggers framework's outbox should be the universal substrate for **async dispatch**. Every event source that fires scripts asynchronously writes to the same outbox table; one dispatcher reads from it and routes to the executor with shared load control, retry, dead-letter, and trigger-depth tracking.
 ### What runs through the outbox
 | Ingress | Path | Reason |
 |---|---|---|
 | **HTTP request (sync)** | Direct: orchestrator → executor → response (with NATS-style indirection — see §3) | Caller is waiting; the inbox pattern makes this work via the outbox |
 | **HTTP request (async, opt-in)** | Orchestrator writes outbox → returns 202 → dispatcher → executor | Webhooks, fire-and-forget endpoints; explicit opt-in via route config |
 | **Cron tick** | Scheduler writes outbox → dispatcher → executor | No caller; naturally async |
 | **KV / doc / file change** | Service writes outbox → dispatcher → executor | No caller; the originating script already returned |
 | **Pub/sub publish** | Service writes outbox → dispatcher → executor (per subscriber) | Fan-out semantics |
 | **Queue message** | Queue table IS the outbox; dispatcher claims via `FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED` | Avoids double-buffering |
 | **Inbound email** | SMTP receiver writes outbox → dispatcher → executor | No caller |
 ### What this gives
 1. **One dispatcher = one place** for load control (the existing `ExecutionGate`), retry, dead-letter, trigger-depth tracking, fan-out. New event source = "write to outbox in this shape", nothing else.
 2. **Routes become a trigger kind**, conceptually. A route is `(source=http, filter=method+path, script_id, dispatch_mode=sync|async)`. Schema-wise the `routes` table likely stays separate from the new `triggers` table (polymorphic JSON columns get ugly), but the mental model collapses to "everything that fires a script is a trigger".
 3. **`dispatch_mode = async` is a per-route opt-in**. Webhook handlers can return 202 immediately and process in the background — dispatcher handles retries, caller gets a snappy ack.
 4. **Replay and debugging.** Every async invocation has an outbox row; admin can re-fire a trigger by re-dispatching the row.
 5. **Decoupled lifecycle.** Dispatcher can be paused for maintenance without affecting HTTP ingress (it just queues); HTTP can degrade (overflow 503s) without affecting async work already in the outbox.
 ### What this doesn't change
 - Sync HTTP still hits the `ExecutionGate` the same way (now via the dispatcher).
 - Async outbox dispatch also hits the gate when the dispatcher picks a row. Sync and async share the cap on actual blocking-thread-in-use.
 - Trigger CRUD likely stays in per-kind tables for schema sanity; the unification is conceptual + dispatch-layer, not schema-layer.
 ### Status
 - **Universal outbox for async dispatch**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — yes; all async ingress (KV/cron/pubsub/queue/email/dead-letter) writes to one outbox; one dispatcher reads it.
 - **Sync HTTP via outbox (NATS-style inbox)**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — in-process oneshot in v1.1.1; cluster-mode keeps the door open for `LISTEN/NOTIFY` keyed on `inbox_id` in v1.3+ (see §3 implementation table).
 - **Routes-as-trigger conceptually**: ✅ yes — the dispatch layer treats routes and triggers uniformly.
 - **Trigger storage shape: Layout E (parent + per-kind detail tables)**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01. One shared `triggers` parent with common columns (`id`, `app_id`, `script_id`, `kind`, `enabled`, `dispatch_mode`, retry config, timestamps); one `<kind>_trigger_details` table per service (`kv_trigger_details`, `cron_trigger_details`, `pubsub_trigger_details`, `queue_trigger_details`, `email_trigger_details`, `dead_letter_trigger_details`). Outbox FKs to `triggers.id`; dead-letters FK same. Exact column set (notably `outbox.app_id` denormalization, whether `script_id` also lives on outbox, ON DELETE behavior on the parent vs detail tables) will be refined when v1.1.1 implementation lands.
 - **`routes` table stays separate from the `triggers` parent for now**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01. `routes` is Phase-3 production schema with its own trie-index columns; folding into the parent is a v1.2 cleanup, not a v1.1.1 requirement. Outbox discriminates HTTP rows via `source_kind = 'http'` and `trigger_id` referencing `routes.id` for HTTP, `triggers.id` for everything else.
 - **Per-route `dispatch_mode: sync|async`**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — ships in v1.1.1. Async returns `202 Accepted` with a JSON body `{ "accepted_at": "...", "execution_id": "..." }`. `dispatch_mode` is a route property fixed at route creation; scripts cannot switch modes mid-call.
 ### Open calls
 1. ~~Sync HTTP via outbox + per-request inbox~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: yes via outbox; in-process oneshot now, `LISTEN/NOTIFY` explicitly preserved for cluster mode (v1.3+).
 2. ~~Ship `dispatch_mode: async` in v1.1.1~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: yes; `202 Accepted` + JSON body with `execution_id`; route-level config only.
 3. ~~Trigger storage shape~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: Layout E (parent + per-kind detail tables); `routes` stays its own table for v1.1.x. Exact column set deferred to implementation PR.

 ## 3. NATS-style request/reply for sync HTTP
 The constraint that makes "universal outbox" tricky: HTTP has a caller waiting. We can't write to outbox, return 202, and walk away — the user's browser expects `200 OK` with body. NATS's request/reply pattern resolves this elegantly.
 ### Pattern
 ```
 HTTP request  →  orchestrator generates inbox_id, registers a oneshot channel
              →  writes outbox row { source: http, payload, reply_to: inbox_id }
              →  awaits on the channel (with timeout = script's wall-clock + buffer)
 Dispatcher    →  picks outbox row
              →  dispatches to executor (gate + spawn_blocking + Rhai)
              →  if reply_to.is_some(): resolves the channel with the result
              →  if reply_to.is_none(): records completion + retries on failure per trigger config
 Orchestrator  →  channel resolves → returns response to HTTP caller
              →  on timeout: returns 504 or 500 → see status-code calls below
 ```
 The HTTP caller's experience is unchanged (synchronous request/response). Under the hood, dispatch is identical for every invocation source.
 ### Implementation by deployment mode
 | Mode | Mechanism | Trade-off |
 |---|---|---|
 | **In-process (v1.1.1, MVP)** | Per-orchestrator `HashMap<InboxId, oneshot::Sender<Result>>`; dispatcher resolves the oneshot | Sub-ms wake-up; fails across process boundaries |
 | **Cross-process (cluster mode v1.3+)** | Postgres `LISTEN/NOTIFY` keyed on `inbox_id`, with a `responses` row as durable backup | Sub-10ms wake-up; survives across nodes; needs careful long-listener management |
 | **Polling fallback** | Orchestrator polls `responses` table for `inbox_id` every ~10ms | Simple; ~10ms minimum latency; only as fallback |
 ### Latency cost (honest numbers)
 Per sync HTTP request, NATS-style adds: ~1-2ms Postgres write (outbox) + sub-ms dispatcher wake (in-process channel) + ~1ms response resolve = **~2-5ms overhead**. For most scripts (10-100ms execution), this is noise. PiCloud isn't optimizing for sub-ms; the architectural unification is worth a few ms.
 ### Default retry policy — decided
 ✅ Decided 2026-06-01:
 | Knob | Default | Env override | Per-trigger column |
 |---|---|---|---|
 | Max attempts | 3 | `PICLOUD_TRIGGER_RETRY_MAX_ATTEMPTS` | `retry_max_attempts` |
 | Backoff shape | exponential | `PICLOUD_TRIGGER_RETRY_BACKOFF` (`exponential` \| `linear` \| `constant`) | `retry_backoff` |
 | Base delay | 1000ms | `PICLOUD_TRIGGER_RETRY_BASE_MS` | `retry_base_ms` |
 | Jitter | ±20% | `PICLOUD_TRIGGER_RETRY_JITTER_PCT` | (not per-trigger; dispatcher-side) |
 With the defaults, schedule after each failed attempt is **~1s / ~2s / ~4s** (each ±20%), total time-to-dead-letter ~7s.
 **What triggers a retry:** any of Rhai runtime error, wall-clock timeout, operation-budget-exceeded, or platform-side failure (Postgres unavailable, executor crashed). Distinguishing them in the dispatcher is fiddly and the retry cost is bounded by `max_attempts`; if op-budget retries become dead-letter spam in practice, revisit.
 **Per-trigger override:** the three retry columns on the `triggers` parent table (Layout E) take precedence over the env-configured defaults. Trigger CRUD endpoints accept these on create/update; if omitted, the env defaults are applied at write time (not lazily at dispatch — keeps the policy auditable from the row itself).
 **Sync HTTP exception:** unchanged. `reply_to.is_some()` rows are never retried regardless of policy (see below).
 ### Retry policy — `reply_to` IS the signal
 | Outbox row | Retry behavior |
 |---|---|
 | `reply_to.is_some()` | **Never retry.** Caller is waiting; retrying means the script might run twice and the caller gets one of two outcomes. Always: one attempt, surface result (success or failure) to inbox. |
 | `reply_to.is_none()` | Retry per trigger's configured policy. Default: 3 attempts, exponential backoff (1s, 2s, 4s), dead-letter after. |
 Per-trigger config lives on the trigger row:
 ```
 trigger { source: cron,   schedule: "0 */5 * * * *",
          retry: { max_attempts: 5, backoff: exponential, base_ms: 1000 } }
 trigger { source: pubsub, topic: "user.created",
          retry: { max_attempts: 3, backoff: linear,      base_ms: 500  } }
 trigger { source: http,   method: POST, path: "/api/foo",
          dispatch_mode: sync }   // retry absent — sync HTTP is always 1-attempt
 ```
 ### Failure / crash handling
 With NATS-style indirection, there are new ways for a sync HTTP request to vanish. Every failure path must resolve the orchestrator's oneshot channel with something:
 | Failure mode | Detection | Caller sees |
 |---|---|---|
 | Script throws / runtime error | Executor returns `ExecError::Runtime` → written to inbox | 502 (or 500 — see status-code discussion) |
 | Script exceeds wall-clock | `tokio::time::timeout` fires inside dispatcher → written to inbox | 504 (or 500) |
 | Operation budget exceeded | Executor returns `ExecError::OperationBudgetExceeded` → inbox | 507 (or 500) |
 | Executor process crashes mid-execution | `JoinError` → `ExecError::Runtime` → inbox | 500 |
 | Dispatcher process dies between claim and reply | Orchestrator's wait times out | 500 |
 | Outbox write fails (Postgres unavailable) | Orchestrator never publishes; immediate error | 500 |
 | Orchestrator's own wait times out unexpectedly | Channel timeout fires before inbox resolves | 504 (or 500) |
 Every path resolves the channel with a result. The orchestrator's outer timeout is the backstop for "dispatcher just died completely".
 ### Status code strategy — decided
 ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: keep the granular status codes (Option A), with one refinement — `500` is reserved for **platform** problems (dispatcher vanished, outbox write failed, inbox channel timed out unexpectedly), not used as a generic catch-all.
 | Code | Cause | Who's at fault |
 |---|---|---|
 | 422 | Request validation failed | Client |
 | 502 | Script threw / Rhai runtime error | User script |
 | 503 | Gate refused (overloaded); `Retry-After: 1` | Platform (capacity) |
 | 504 | Wall-clock timeout | Either (slow script or platform overload) |
 | 507 | Operation budget exceeded | User script |
 | 500 | Dispatcher vanished / outbox write failed / inbox channel timed out unexpectedly | Platform (bug or infra) |
 Rationale: each code is actionable for the caller (back off, redesign as async, fix the script, file a bug). Flattening to `500` would collapse "script crashed" vs "overloaded" vs "your timeout is too tight" vs "platform broke" into one undifferentiated signal — losing both client-facing UX and our own observability/alerting axis.
 ### Status
 - **NATS-style for sync HTTP**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 (see §2 #3).
 - **`reply_to` presence as the "don't retry" signal**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 (folded with the NATS-style decision).
 - **Status code strategy**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — keep granular distinctions; `500` reserved for platform problems only.
 - **Default retry policy**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — 3 attempts / exponential / 1000ms base / ±20% jitter; all four env-overridable via `PICLOUD_TRIGGER_RETRY_*`; per-trigger columns on the parent table take precedence.
 - **Cancel-on-timeout semantics**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — option (b). Late results are discarded from the caller's POV (they already got a 504) but the dispatcher writes an `abandoned_executions` row whenever it tries to resolve a oneshot that's already closed/dropped. 7-day default retention via `PICLOUD_ABANDONED_EXECUTIONS_RETENTION_DAYS`; weekly GC sweep. A counter (`picloud_abandoned_executions_total{app_id}`) bumps on insert — that's the primary observability signal; the rows themselves are for forensics when the counter spikes. Only the dispatcher-after-orchestrator-timeout edge case writes a row; ordinary "script timed out, caller got 504" stays uneventful.
 ### Open calls

 ---
 ## 4. Dead-letter handling
 Events that exhaust their retry policy land in a **separate `dead_letters` table** (not a flag on the outbox — outbox should stay a queue with fast inserts and scans). Users handle dead letters by registering a script for the new `dead_letter` **trigger kind**.
 ### Schema sketch
 ```sql
 CREATE TABLE dead_letters (
  id                UUID PRIMARY KEY,
  app_id            UUID NOT NULL REFERENCES apps(id) ON DELETE CASCADE,
  original_event_id UUID NOT NULL,         -- the outbox row id
  source            TEXT NOT NULL,         -- "kv", "cron", "pubsub", "queue", "email"
  op                TEXT NOT NULL,
  trigger_id        UUID,                  -- which trigger config fired (null for direct dispatches)
  script_id         UUID,                  -- which script failed
  payload           JSONB NOT NULL,        -- the event payload, verbatim
  attempt_count     INT  NOT NULL,
  first_attempt_at  TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL,
  last_attempt_at   TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL,
  last_error        TEXT NOT NULL,
  created_at        TIMESTAMPTZ NOT NULL DEFAULT NOW(),
  resolved_at       TIMESTAMPTZ,           -- null = unresolved
  resolution        TEXT                   -- "replayed" | "ignored" | "handled_by_script" | "handler_failed"
 );
 CREATE INDEX idx_dead_letters_app_unresolved
  ON dead_letters(app_id) WHERE resolved_at IS NULL;
 ```
 ### Dead letter as trigger source
 ```
 trigger {
  source: dead_letter,
  filter: { source: "kv" },        -- optional; defaults to "any source"
  script_id: <your handler>,
  dispatch_mode: async,
  retry: { max_attempts: 1 }       -- forced — see recursion stop rule below
 }
 ```
 Filterable on:
 - `source`: only dead letters from a particular event source (kv, cron, pubsub, …)
 - `trigger_id`: only dead letters from a particular trigger config
 - `script_id`: only dead letters from a particular script
 - No filter: every dead letter fires this handler
 `ctx.event` for a dead-letter handler:
 ```rhai
 ctx.event.source              // "dead_letter"
 ctx.event.dead_letter = #{
    original: #{
        source:     "kv",
        op:         "insert",
        collection: "widgets",
        key:        "k1",
        payload:    #{ ... }
    },
    attempts:        3,
    last_error:      "script timeout after 30s",
    trigger_id:      "...",
    script_id:       "...",
    first_attempt_at: "2026-05-30T12:00:00.000Z",
    last_attempt_at:  "2026-05-30T12:00:14.000Z"
 }
 ```
 The handler can `log::error`, send `email::send` to admins, write to `docs::collection("incidents").create(...)`, post to external alerting via `http::post`, or call `dead_letters::replay(id)` if it decides retry is favorable.
 ### Recursion stop rule — decided
 ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: **dead-letter handlers execute once, no retry, and CANNOT themselves be dead-lettered.**
 - The flag lives on the **execution/outbox row** (set by the dispatcher when it picks a row whose trigger has `kind = 'dead_letter'`), not on the trigger config. Same handler script could in principle be reused for non-DL work without inheriting the no-retry treatment.
 - On handler failure:
  - Full payload + error logged to structured logs
  - Counter `picloud_dead_letter_handler_failures{app_id}` bumped
  - Original dead-letter row annotated with `resolution = 'handler_failed'`
  - **No retry, no second dead-letter row, no further fire.**
 - **Missing handler script** (trigger references `script_id` that's been deleted): treated as a handler failure — same metric bump, same `resolution = 'handler_failed'`, same no-retry. Auto-disabling the trigger is deferred to v1.2; for v1.1.1 the user sees the metric spike and investigates.
 - **Indirect loops** (DL handler writes to KV → fires a KV trigger → that handler fails → dead-letters → fires the same DL handler) are not blocked by this rule directly; they're bounded by the existing trigger-depth limit (`cx.trigger_depth`). The recursion-stop rule only prevents the *direct* infinite regress where a DL handler's failure would itself produce a DL row.
 Rationale: if your alerting script is broken, the platform shouldn't try to alert about that with the same broken script. The chain has to terminate, period.
 ### Defaults — decided
 ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: **no automatic handler.** Dead letters land in the table; users opt into handling by registering a `dead_letter` trigger.
 **Load-bearing commitment:** the v1.1.1 dashboard surfaces this state. Without dashboard surface, "no default handler" is irresponsible — users wouldn't know dead-letters exist until they queried Postgres directly. So shipping the table without the UI is not an option.
 Required in v1.1.1 alongside the table:
 - An **unresolved-count badge** per app, visible in the dashboard's app list and on the app detail page. Source query: `SELECT count(*) FROM dead_letters WHERE app_id = $1 AND resolved_at IS NULL`.
 - A **per-app dead-letters list view** reachable from the badge. Columns: `created_at`, `source`, `op`, `script_id`, `last_error`, `attempt_count`, `first_attempt_at`, `last_attempt_at`. Per-row actions: **Replay** (re-inserts the original event into the outbox; dispatcher tries again from scratch) and **Mark resolved** (sets `resolution = 'ignored'`, no further action).
 - A row detail panel showing the full payload + complete error history.
 Rationale: most apps will run for months without ever needing a DL handler; the table is the durable record either way. The dashboard surface gives users the lightest-touch signal that something is wrong without committing v1.1.1 to building a notifications channel.
 A heavier built-in default ("log to admin notifications channel") was considered and rejected — it would smuggle a notifications-surface design into v1.1.1 under the guise of a default, with real product-design questions (channel shape, configuration, opt-out, rate-limiting) that aren't worth answering yet. If the dashboard badge proves insufficient in practice, a structured-log fallback (writing to `execution_logs` with a known `dead_letter` shape) is an additive future change, not a breaking one.
 ### Sync HTTP failures don't dead-letter
 Sync HTTP requests (`reply_to.is_some()`) failures don't land in `dead_letters`. Caller already got an error response; every failed HTTP request landing in `dead_letters` would flood the table; `execution_logs` already captures sync request failures. If a user wants alerts on HTTP endpoint failures, that's **monitoring** (v1.3+ territory), not dead-lettering.
 ### Pub/sub fan-out dead-letters independently
 One `pubsub::publish` → N subscribers → each retries independently → each can independently dead-letter. So one publish can produce N dead-letter rows (one per subscriber that exhausted retries). Subscribers are independent failure domains.
 ### Manual replay — Rhai SDK scope decided
 ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: ship `dead_letters::replay(id)` and `dead_letters::resolve(id, reason)` in v1.1.1; **defer `dead_letters::list(filter)` to v1.2** to align with `docs::find()` query semantics.
 | Surface | Use case | Shipping in |
 |---|---|---|
 | `POST /api/v1/admin/apps/{id}/dead_letters/{dl_id}/replay` | Admin clicks "replay" in dashboard | v1.1.1 |
 | `POST /api/v1/admin/apps/{id}/dead_letters/{dl_id}/resolve` | Admin marks resolved via dashboard | v1.1.1 |
 | `GET /api/v1/admin/apps/{id}/dead_letters` | Dashboard list view | v1.1.1 |
 | `dead_letters::replay(id)` Rhai SDK | A handler script decides to retry programmatically | v1.1.1 |
 | `dead_letters::resolve(id, reason)` Rhai SDK | A handler decides "this is fine, don't bother me" | v1.1.1 |
 | `dead_letters::list(filter)` Rhai SDK | Bulk replay / cleanup scripts | **v1.2** (aligns with `docs::find()` query DSL) |
 Replay re-inserts the original event into the outbox; dispatcher tries again from scratch.
 **Authz:** both replay and resolve are gated by a new `Capability::AppDeadLetterManage(AppId)` checked inside the service methods. The capability is granted to app admins by default (existing Phase 3.5 role hierarchy). A public HTTP script running with `principal: None` would fail this check, which is correct.
 **Trigger-execution principal (related decision):** ✅ a trigger execution runs as the principal that **registered the trigger**, captured on the trigger row at registration time. This gives a clean "the trigger fires as you" model and matches how cron jobs are typically conceptualized. The original event's principal (e.g. the anonymous caller of a public HTTP route) is recorded for forensics on the outbox row but does not become the execution principal. This is a wider trigger-framework decision surfaced here because dead-letter authz is the first concrete consumer; it applies to **every** trigger kind, not just dead-letter.
 ### Retention — decided
 ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: **30 days, GC by `created_at`, env-overridable only (no per-app override in v1.1.1).**
 - Default: 30 days
 - Override: `PICLOUD_DEAD_LETTER_RETENTION_DAYS` (whole-deployment, not per-app)
 - GC condition: `created_at < NOW() - retention` — applies to both resolved and unresolved rows uniformly. (Activity-age GC — keeping recently-resolved rows 30 days post-resolution — was considered and deferred; can switch if user feedback shows it's needed without breaking anything.)
 - GC job: weekly sweep in `manager-core`, claiming via `FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED` to match the dispatcher's claim pattern.
 Per-app retention overrides are deferred to a later release. The env var covers single-deployer needs; per-app settings would need a dashboard surface + permissions story that isn't worth smuggling into v1.1.1.
 ### Status
 - **Separate `dead_letters` table**: leaning yes.
 - **`dead_letter` as trigger kind**: leaning yes.
 - **Recursion stop rule** (handlers can't be dead-lettered): ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 (above); flag lives on the execution; missing-handler case treated as handler failure.
 - **No default handler** (rows sit in table; dashboard surfaces them): ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — unresolved-count badge + per-app list view ship in v1.1.1 alongside the table.
 - **Sync HTTP failures don't dead-letter**: leaning yes.
 - **Retention**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — 30 days, GC by `created_at`, env-only override (`PICLOUD_DEAD_LETTER_RETENTION_DAYS`); weekly `FOR UPDATE SKIP LOCKED` sweep in `manager-core`.
 - **Rhai SDK scope**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — `replay` + `resolve` ship in v1.1.1; `list` deferred to v1.2 to align with `docs::find()` query DSL. New `Capability::AppDeadLetterManage(AppId)`.
 - **Trigger-execution principal**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — trigger fires as the principal that registered it (captured on the trigger row at registration). Original event's principal is recorded on the outbox row for forensics but does not become the execution principal. Applies to all trigger kinds.
 ### Open calls
 1. ~~Dead-letter handlers unretryable + can't be dead-lettered themselves~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: confirmed; flag on execution; missing-handler = `resolution = 'handler_failed'`; indirect loops bounded by `cx.trigger_depth`.
 2. ~~No default dead-letter handler~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: confirmed; rows sit in the table by default. Dashboard unresolved-count badge + per-app DL list view (with Replay + Mark-resolved actions) ship in v1.1.1 alongside the table.
 3. ~~30-day default retention~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: 30 days, GC by `created_at`, env-only override; per-app retention deferred.
 4. ~~Rhai SDK for dead-letters in v1.1.1~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: `replay` + `resolve` ship; `list` deferred to v1.2 to align with `docs::find()`; new `Capability::AppDeadLetterManage(AppId)`. Related: trigger executions run as the trigger-registering principal.

 ## 5. Realtime updates for external clients
 Apps built on PiCloud need a way for browser/mobile clients to receive live updates (chat messages, dashboard data, multiplayer state, notifications). Today's pub/sub is internal-only (script ↔ script via triggers).
 ### The chosen approach — decided
 ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: **Option C (one publish API, topics opt-in to external visibility) with the registration split below.**
 - One `pubsub::publish_durable(topic, msg)` API for scripts — produces a single event regardless of who subscribes.
 - Topics are **internal-only by default**: script triggers can subscribe; external clients cannot.
 - **Externally-subscribable topics must be registered explicitly** (admin API + dashboard surface). Internal-only topics remain implicit — anyone can `publish_durable("any.topic", msg)` and triggers can subscribe without registration. To externalize: create a `topics` row with `external_subscribable = true` first.
 - External clients connect to `GET /realtime/topics/{topic}` via SSE; they only receive messages from registered, externally-subscribable topics they're permitted to access.
 **UI/security commitments** (the difference between C working and C being default-public in disguise):
 1. The externally-subscribable opt-in is prominent UI, not a buried checkbox.
 2. The topic list view shows "external: yes/no" as a first-class column.
 3. Marking a topic externally-subscribable requires app admin role (capability-gated via `Capability::AppTopicManage(AppId)`).
 4. The bit-flip is its own API endpoint (not a side-effect of generic topic update) so it carries an independent audit trail.
 **Wins:** one publish API for scripts (DRY), topics are private by default (security), external visibility requires deliberate explicit registration (not just a config flag flipped during quick edits).
 **Why not A (every topic externally-visible by default):** topic names tend to describe the event, not the audience; internal topics frequently carry PII or sensitive payloads; the Firebase-style "remember to lock it down" anti-pattern this whole design rejects.
 **Why not B (separate `channels::` service):** doubles the publish API for almost-identical use cases; scripts wanting both internal triggers AND client push would publish twice; users wrap it in a helper and we're back at C with extra steps and no central policy enforcement.
 ### Transport: SSE first — decided
 ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: **SSE-only for v1.1.6. WebSocket added in a later release if real bidirectional demand emerges.**
 - Simpler than WebSocket; works through any HTTP proxy without protocol upgrade
 - Browsers auto-reconnect on disconnect (native `EventSource`)
 - Covers the dominant use cases (chat-message-list updates, dashboard streams, notifications, IoT telemetry, build-status streams) cleanly
 - Production-quality SSE requires HTTP/2 between Caddy and clients to dodge the per-origin connection cap on HTTP/1.1 — Caddy speaks HTTP/2 by default, so this is just a config note for the deploy docs
 **Why not ship WS in v1.1.6:** WS is the right tool for sub-100ms bidirectional state (multiplayer games, CRDT collaborative editing, typing-indicator-level presence). On consumer hardware with Postgres-backed event distribution, that latency budget is dominated by the server stack anyway — WS would be paying implementation cost (frame management, ping/pong, close codes, backpressure protocol) without unlocking the latency it's designed for. SSE-only also frees v1.1.6 to invest in `@picloud/client` library quality instead of transport edge cases.
 **Future addition path:** WebSocket coexists with SSE on a different endpoint (e.g. `/realtime/ws/{topic}`) backed by the same subscriber registry. Purely additive — no SSE clients break, no architecture decision in v1.1.6 closes the door.
 ### Auth model for external subscribers — decided
 ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: ship **public** + **HMAC-signed subscriber-token** auth in v1.1.6; **users-SDK session-based** auth follows in v1.1.8 (additive); **script-mediated per-subscribe** auth deferred to v1.2.
 **Topic config columns:**
 - `external_subscribable: bool` — can external clients ever subscribe?
 - `auth_mode: 'public' | 'token'` — if external, what's the gate? (ignored when `external_subscribable = false`)
 - v1.1.8 adds `auth_mode = 'session'` for users-SDK-based sessions; v1.2 adds `auth_mode = 'script'` for script-mediated.
 **v1.1.6 trust flow (token-gated topics):**
 | Hop | Auth mechanism |
 |---|---|
 | Script → its own token-mint endpoint | Existing API-key + app authz |
 | Script → SDK helper to mint token | New `pubsub::subscriber_token(topics, ttl)` |
 | Frontend → script's token endpoint | App's own auth (cookie/session/whatever the app defines) |
 | Frontend → PiCloud SSE | Short-lived HMAC-signed subscriber token (bearer header) |
 | SSE handler → token validation | HMAC verify, scope-check requested topic against token's allowed list |
 The frontend **never** touches the app's API key. The script signs scoped, short-lived bearers (HMAC over `{topic_list, exp, app_id}`) with a secret derived from the app's API-key material. The SSE endpoint validates the signature without a DB lookup.
 **Token TTL:** clamped 10s ≤ ttl ≤ 24h. Default 1h. Both bounds and default env-overridable (`PICLOUD_SUBSCRIBER_TOKEN_TTL_MIN_SEC`, `PICLOUD_SUBSCRIBER_TOKEN_TTL_MAX_SEC`, `PICLOUD_SUBSCRIBER_TOKEN_TTL_DEFAULT_SEC`).
 **Token revocation:** none in v1.1.6 by design. HMAC bearers can't be revoked individually; rotation of the signing key invalidates all bearers wholesale. Short TTL is the safety mechanism. Per-token revocation arrives implicitly with v1.1.8's session-based auth (sessions CAN be invalidated).
 **Public topics:** no auth at all. `GET /realtime/topics/{topic}` works for anyone if the topic has `external_subscribable = true AND auth_mode = 'public'`. Used for marketing-style broadcasts and public stat boards.
 ### Status
 - **Approach C (opt-in external subscription)**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — internal-only by default; externally-subscribable topics require explicit registration + admin-role capability; UI surface treats the bit-flip as a deliberate, audited action.
 - **SSE first, WebSocket later**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — SSE-only in v1.1.6; WS deferred until concrete demand emerges; future addition is purely additive on a separate endpoint.
 - **Public + token-gated auth in v1.1.6**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — HMAC-signed subscriber-token flow (not raw API-key passing); `users::*` session-based and script-mediated auth deferred per the table above.
 ### Open calls
 1. ~~Approach C confirmed~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: yes, with explicit registration required for externally-subscribable topics (internal-only stays implicit); new `Capability::AppTopicManage(AppId)`.
 2. ~~SSE first, WebSocket deferred~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: SSE-only in v1.1.6; WS deferred to a later release; future addition is purely additive.
 3. ~~Auth model~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: public + HMAC-signed subscriber tokens in v1.1.6; `users::*` session auth in v1.1.8; script-mediated auth in v1.2; token TTL clamped 10s–24h (default 1h), env-overridable; no per-token revocation in v1.1.6 (rely on TTL).

 ## 6. Frontend client library
 Strategic positioning question: how much should PiCloud expose to frontend developers building apps on top of it?
 ### The two ends of the spectrum
 | End | Frontend gets | Examples |
 |---|---|---|
 | **Minimalist** | HTTP to dev-defined script endpoints + SSE on dev-marked-public topics. Nothing else. | AWS Lambda + API Gateway, Cloudflare Workers, Deno Deploy |
 | **Maximalist** | Direct client-side access to KV/docs/users/files. Frontend writes `kv.get()`, `docs.find()`, no Rhai script for trivial reads. | Firebase, Supabase, AWS Amplify |
 PiCloud today sits at the minimalist end (services exist for scripts to use, not for frontends). Crossing to maximalist would be a real product pivot, not a feature add.
 ### The chosen approach: hybrid — decided
 ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: **Hybrid model. No direct service access from the frontend; client library standardizes script-mediated ceremony.**
 Four pieces ship in `@picloud/client` for v1.1.6:
 1. **Typed HTTP client to dev-defined endpoints** — `picloud.endpoint('/api/users').post({ name: 'alice' })`. Fetch wrapper with auth header injection, retry logic, structured error handling.
 2. **SSE subscription** — `picloud.subscribe('chat-room-123', msg => …)`. Auto-reconnect, token refresh, backpressure.
 3. **Auth flow helpers** — `picloud.auth.login(email, password)`, `picloud.auth.logout()`, `picloud.auth.token`. These call **dev-defined** endpoints under the hood (`/api/auth/login` etc.); the lib just standardizes the dance + token storage.
 4. **Realtime-aware framework hooks** — `useTopic(topic)` for React, store-shape `subscribe(topic)` for Svelte. Thin polish over the SSE primitive; what frontend devs actually write.
 Hard rule, load-bearing: **no `picloud.kv.get()` / `picloud.docs.find()` / `picloud.users.list()` from the frontend.** Direct service access from the browser is a strategic and security commitment, not a v1.1.6 limitation. A frontend dev who wants `kv.get()` from the browser writes a 6-line Rhai script binding it to a route — that friction is intentional, makes the dev decide deliberately that the read is okay to expose.
 **Why not Firebase-mode** (full direct service access):
 - Different product, different competition (Supabase / Amplify / Appwrite have 5-year head start, fulltime teams).
 - Requires security-rule language + per-row authorization evaluator + tooling that PiCloud's solo-dev audience cannot operate safely. Firebase's #1 cause of data exposure is misconfigured rules — well-documented, recurring.
 - Script-as-gate is dramatically more defensible: the rules are just code, in the same language as the rest of the app, debuggable like any other code.
 **Why not pure-minimalist** (no client lib, just docs):
 - Every PiCloud frontend dev hand-rolls the same fetch wrapper, SSE reconnect, token refresh, login/logout dance. Shipping `@picloud/client` removes that boilerplate without expanding the security surface.
 ### Why hybrid, not maximalist
 Firebase trades security for DX; the security-rule misconfiguration footgun is the #1 cause of accidental data exposure in serverless apps. PiCloud's "solo dev / consumer hardware" audience does not have the operational capacity to defend a Firebase-style attack surface against misconfiguration. The script layer is also where PiCloud differentiates — if frontends bypass scripts to talk directly to services, we're competing with Supabase head-to-head (unwinnable, they're better-resourced and have a 5-year head start).
 ### Why hybrid, not pure minimalist
 A frontend dev shouldn't have to hand-roll fetch wrappers, SSE reconnect logic, and token-refresh dances. That stuff is identical across every app. Shipping it as `@picloud/client` is genuinely valuable — it doesn't expand the security surface (scripts still gate everything), it just removes boilerplate.
 ### TypeScript first — decided
 ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: **TypeScript only for v1.1.6. Other-language SDKs deferred, demand-driven, no preemptive ranking.**
 - TS covers ~85% of the realistic v1.x audience (web + React Native mobile + Capacitor + Electron).
 - Native iOS / Android / Python / Rust / Go users can hit the REST + SSE endpoints directly without an SDK; they lose the typed wrapper but aren't blocked from shipping.
 - The REST + SSE surface is documented as the **public protocol contract** so future PiCloud or the community can build other-language SDKs against a stable spec. PiCloud doesn't promise specific languages or timelines preemptively; a real user with a concrete use case is what triggers a new SDK.
 - **Known caveat:** React Native doesn't ship a native `EventSource`. The TS client should runtime-detect and either fall back gracefully or require an explicit polyfill (`react-native-sse` / `react-native-event-source`) with clear docs. Not a blocker; worth surfacing in the v1.1.6 README.
 ### Status
 - **Hybrid model (frontend through scripts only)**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — confirmed; no direct service access from the browser; client lib standardizes script-mediated ceremony only.
 - **TypeScript first, other languages deferred**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — TS-only in v1.1.6; REST + SSE documented as public protocol contract; other languages demand-driven with no preemptive ranking; React Native SSE polyfill noted as known caveat.
 - **Co-ship with realtime as v1.1.6**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — server-side realtime AND `@picloud/client@1.0.0` ship together in v1.1.6. Built in parallel against a frozen REST + SSE spec. If v1.1.6 scope blows up under pressure, the lib is the deferrable piece (slips to v1.1.6.1); the realtime server itself doesn't slip.
 - **Type safety / codegen**: ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 — defer codegen to v1.2+; v1.1.6 ships hand-written types with `endpoint<Req, Res>()` generic + optional client-side runtime validation via user-provided schemas (zod/valibot adapter; ~50 lines). No schema-declaration syntax in v1.1.6 — committing to that before v1.2's coherent codegen design would lock us into a shape we'd regret. Doc schemas (already arriving in v1.1.2) are the natural foundation for v1.2 codegen; script-endpoint schemas get designed alongside the generator, not before.
 ### Open calls
 1. ~~Hybrid model~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: confirmed; no direct service access from the frontend; `@picloud/client` ships typed HTTP + SSE + auth-flow + framework hooks.
 2. ~~TypeScript first, multi-language deferred~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: TS-only in v1.1.6; REST + SSE is the public protocol; other-language SDKs are demand-driven; React Native SSE polyfill caveat documented.
 3. ~~Co-ship realtime + client lib~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: co-ship in v1.1.6, built in parallel against a frozen REST + SSE spec. Lib is the deferrable piece under scope pressure (slips to v1.1.6.1); server doesn't slip.
 4. ~~Type safety / codegen~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: defer codegen to v1.2+; v1.1.6 ships hand-written types with `endpoint<Req, Res>()` generic + optional zod/valibot runtime validation; no schema declarations in v1.1.6.

 ## 7. Revised v1.1.x roadmap
 Net changes vs the [blueprint §12](../serverless_cloud_blueprint.md) roadmap:
 - **v1.1.5 pub/sub**: now via trigger outbox (drops `LISTEN/NOTIFY` plan), tightening implementation scope
 - **NEW v1.1.6 Realtime Channels & Client Library**: realtime SSE + `@picloud/client` TS package; co-shipped
 - **v1.1.7+ items shifted by one** (was v1.1.6/7/8 → now v1.1.7/8/9)
 - **Dead letters and the unified outbox/dispatcher** are absorbed into v1.1.1's existing scope (triggers framework)
 | Version | Capability |
 |---|---|
 | **v1.1.0** | **Foundation & Standard Library** — SDK shape, `Services` bundle, `SdkCallCx`, `ExecutionGate`, `ServiceEventEmitter` trait shape; stdlib utilities (regex, random, time, json, base64, hex, url). ✓ Shipped. |
 | **v1.1.1** | **Storage & Events** — KV store keyed `(app_id, collection, key)`; triggers framework (universal outbox + dispatcher + NATS-style sync HTTP via inbox + per-trigger retry config + dead-letter table & `dead_letter` trigger source + trigger CRUD + `ctx.event` + depth limit); KV trigger kinds. |
 | **v1.1.2** | **Documents** — `docs::collection(name).create/find/update/delete/list` with `docs:*` triggers. |
 | **v1.1.3** | **Modules** — `scripts.kind`, per-app resolver replaces `DummyModuleResolver`, AST cache + dep-graph invalidation. |
 | **v1.1.4** | **Outbound HTTP & Scheduled Tasks** — `http::*` with SSRF deny-list; cron triggers (small now that the framework exists). |
 | **v1.1.5** | **Files & Pub/Sub** — filesystem-backed blobs (`files/<app_id>/<id[0:2]>/<id>`) with `files:*` triggers; pub/sub via the universal outbox with `pubsub:*` triggers. |
 | **v1.1.6** | **Realtime Channels & Client Library** *(new)* — SSE-based external subscription to per-app pub/sub topics (public + HMAC-signed subscriber-token auth, minted via `pubsub::subscriber_token`); `@picloud/client` TypeScript package (typed HTTP via `endpoint<Req,Res>()`, SSE subscription, auth helpers, framework hooks). |
 | **v1.1.7** | **Configuration & Email** *(was v1.1.6)* — encrypted per-app secrets; outbound `email::send/send_html` + inbound `email:receive` trigger. |
 | **v1.1.8** | **User Management** *(was v1.1.7)* — `users::*` for in-script CRUD, auth, roles, invites, password reset. |
 | **v1.1.9** | **Durable Queues & Function Composition** *(was v1.1.8)* — `queue::*` with `queue:receive` trigger; `invoke()` + `retry::*` (closures-as-args, re-entrant Rhai). |
 | **v1.2** | **Workflows & Hierarchies** (per blueprint §Phase 5) — DAG execution, advanced docs query, interceptors, read triggers, audit log, script-mediated realtime auth, `dead_letters::list` (aligned with `docs::find()` query DSL), client-lib type codegen from script-declared schemas. |
 | **v1.3+** | **Scale & Ops** (per blueprint §Phase 6) — cluster mode (NATS-style request/reply swaps to `LISTEN/NOTIFY`), cross-app data sharing, script versioning + rollback, rate limiting, richer auth, metrics, distributed tracing, webhooks, S3, monitoring/alerting on HTTP endpoint failures. |
 The v1.1.9 release marks the end of the v1.1.x expansion cadence. v1.2 is the next minor product bump (phase milestone per [versioning policy](versioning.md)).

 ## Consolidated open calls
 All 20 open calls were resolved on 2026-06-01. This section is retained as a quick decision index — each item links the original question to the decision recorded in its section above. Sections will be pruned individually as their decisions ship into code and the [serverless_cloud_blueprint.md](../serverless_cloud_blueprint.md).
 ### §1 — Messaging primitives
 1. ~~Pub/sub durability via trigger outbox~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: `publish_durable` ships in v1.1.5; `publish_ephemeral` committed as a future API.
 2. ~~Queue and pub/sub stay separate~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: separate top-level namespaces; no unifying messaging abstraction.
 ### §2 — Universal trigger outbox
 3. ~~Sync HTTP via outbox + per-request inbox~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: yes via outbox; in-process oneshot for v1.1.1, `LISTEN/NOTIFY` preserved as the cluster-mode (v1.3+) cross-process variant.
 4. ~~Ship `dispatch_mode: async` for HTTP routes in v1.1.1~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: yes; `202 Accepted` + JSON body with `execution_id`; route-level config only.
 5. ~~Trigger storage shape~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: Layout E (parent `triggers` + per-kind `<kind>_trigger_details`); `routes` stays its own table for v1.1.x; column-set refinements deferred to implementation PR.
 ### §3 — NATS-style sync HTTP
 6. ~~NATS-style request/reply for sync HTTP~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01 (see §2 #3).
 7. ~~Status code strategy~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: keep distinctions; `500` reserved for platform problems.
 8. ~~Default retry policy on triggers~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: 3/exp/1000ms + ±20% jitter; env-overridable via `PICLOUD_TRIGGER_RETRY_*`; per-trigger columns override.
 9. ~~Cancel-on-timeout semantics~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: (b) — `abandoned_executions` table; dispatcher-written; 7-day retention via `PICLOUD_ABANDONED_EXECUTIONS_RETENTION_DAYS`; metric counter on insert.
 ### §4 — Dead letters
 10. ~~Dead-letter handlers unretryable + can't be dead-lettered themselves~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: confirmed; flag lives on the execution; missing handler = `resolution = 'handler_failed'`; indirect loops bounded by `cx.trigger_depth`.
 11. ~~No default dead-letter handler~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: confirmed; rows sit in the table by default. Dashboard unresolved-count badge + per-app DL list view ship in v1.1.1.
 12. ~~30-day default retention~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: 30 days, GC by `created_at`, env-only override (`PICLOUD_DEAD_LETTER_RETENTION_DAYS`).
 13. ~~Rhai SDK for dead-letters in v1.1.1~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: `replay` + `resolve` in v1.1.1; `list` deferred to v1.2; new `Capability::AppDeadLetterManage(AppId)`. Related: trigger executions inherit the registrant's principal.
 ### §5 — Realtime
 14. ~~Approach C confirmed~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: yes, with explicit registration required for externally-subscribable topics; new `Capability::AppTopicManage(AppId)`.

 16. ~~Auth model~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: public + HMAC-signed subscriber tokens in v1.1.6; `users::*` session auth in v1.1.8; script-mediated in v1.2; TTL 10s–24h (default 1h), env-overridable.
 ### §6 — Frontend client library
 17. ~~Hybrid model~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: confirmed; no direct service access from the frontend; client lib standardizes script-mediated ceremony only.
 18. ~~TypeScript first, multi-language deferred~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: TS-only in v1.1.6; REST + SSE is the public protocol contract.
 19. ~~Co-ship realtime + client lib~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: co-ship in v1.1.6, parallel-built against a frozen spec; lib is the deferrable piece under scope pressure.
 20. ~~Type safety / codegen~~ — ✅ Decided 2026-06-01: defer codegen to v1.2+; v1.1.6 ships hand-written types via `endpoint<Req, Res>()` + optional zod/valibot runtime validation.

 ## Lifecycle of this document
 - **Created** at the v1.1.0 → v1.1.1 boundary (after the foundation PR series shipped).
 - **Each section gets pruned** once its decisions ship and land in the blueprint.
 - **Open calls are answered** in conversation, then folded into the corresponding section as "Decided: X" with the date.
 - **Document deleted** when v1.1.9 ships — everything by then is either in the blueprint, in code, or explicitly deferred to v1.2+.

+- **Minor** (`1.1 → 1.2`) — phase milestone or coherent capability cluster. Bumped when the maintainer marks a release as "the platform moved forward in a way that warrants a number". Typically aligned with blueprint Phase boundaries (Phase 5 → v1.2, Phase 6 → v1.3+).
- **Major** (`0 → 1`) — first stable release; SDK and API both committed to long-term compatibility
+- **Patch** (`1.1.0 → 1.1.1`) — everything else: bug fixes AND **additive-only surface changes**. New SDK function, new admin endpoint, new schema migration that only adds tables/columns, new env var, new trigger kind — all patch.
