Three fetch initiators (search debounce, paging, push/coalesce reload) could
each have a LoadDataAsync flight in flight at once; completion order was not
call order, so a slow, stale flight could resolve after a newer one and
clobber the grid the operator was already looking at. Add a monotonic
_requestGeneration counter, bumped at fetch start and checked at apply —
last-write-wins by generation, not by whichever await resolves first.
Separately, the filter-debounce timer wrote `_currentPage = 1` directly on
its raw System.Threading.Timer callback thread — a Blazor threading
violation, since component state may only be mutated on the renderer's
sync context — and that write was not covered by the generation guard at
all. LoadDataAsync now takes a resetToFirstPage flag, resolves the target
page into a local, and applies it only behind the same generation check as
every other piece of state, via a new DispatchFilterReloadAsync that
marshals through InvokeAsync like the existing push-reload path.
Tests (DeploymentsRequestGenerationTests, bUnit): a delayed stale flight
arriving after a newer one does not overwrite the grid; a stale
filter-debounce flight does not reset the page after a newer navigation.
Both driven deterministically via TaskCompletionSource-backed repository
stubs. Verified to fail against the unfixed code (swapped via
`git show HEAD:<path>`, not `git stash` — repo-wide and unsafe across the
parallel worktree wave).
The Deployment Status page client-materialized the whole deployment list. It read
EVERY DeploymentRecord — an insert-only table, one row per deploy attempt for the
retention window — plus EVERY Instance, then site-scoped, sorted, counted the four
status tiles and sliced a 25-row page in the Blazor circuit's memory. That ran on
first render AND on every IDeploymentStatusNotifier push, so the cost scaled with
the age of the system rather than the size of the page.
All four jobs move into SQL:
- `IDeploymentManagerRepository.QueryDeploymentListPageAsync(filter, page, size)`
returns one page of `DeploymentListRow` — DeploymentRecord INNER JOINed to
Instance, so the instance display name and site travel with the rows that need
them — plus the total count of the filtered set. The join is exact: the FK is
Restrict and DeleteInstanceAsync removes the records first, so no orphan exists.
- `GetDeploymentStatusCountsAsync(filter)` returns the tile counts from ONE grouped
aggregation, deliberately ignoring the filter's Status: the tiles are the status
BREAKDOWN of the filtered set, so honouring it would zero three of four tiles the
moment an operator clicked one.
- Site scoping runs in the query as `SiteIdScope` resolved through the record's
instance (DeploymentRecord has no SiteId of its own). An EMPTY grant stays a real
filter matching nothing, never "unconstrained".
- The now-callerless whole-table `GetAllDeploymentRecordsAsync` is deleted.
OFFSET paging, not the Audit Log's keyset cursor, and deliberately so: this page's
pager is numbered and jump-to-any-page, so it needs a page count, which only a total
can give it — a keyset cursor can express neither, and the total is required for the
tiles regardless. The deep-offset cost that pushes high-volume tables to keyset is
bounded here by the terminal-record retention purge, unlike the 365-day AuditLog.
This mirrors the Notification Outbox, offset-paged for the same reason. Ordering is
DeployedAt DESC, Id DESC — the Id tie-break is load-bearing, because DeployedAt ties
on rapid redeploys and an unstable sort key makes offset paging repeat or drop rows.
UI: the four status tiles become the status filter (click to apply, click again to
clear, aria-pressed, phrasing-only content so a <button> stays valid), plus a
free-text search matched DB-side against instance name, deployment id, revision hash
and initiating user. Search is TRAILING-edge debounced at 500ms — the same Timer +
lock + _disposed idiom as the existing leading-edge push coalescer, minus the leading
edge, because a search box must not query on the first keystroke. A filter change
resets to page 1; a page past the end falls back to the last real page. Bootstrap
only, existing PagerWindow pager retained.
The WP2.4 push coalescing is unchanged and still earns its keep: server paging shrank
what a reload costs, not how many arrive — it now bounds database round-trips rather
than table scans.
Tests: 19 new SQLite repository tests (paging slice + total, tie-break stability
across pages, page/size clamping, past-the-end, the joined projection, every filter
dimension incl. the empty-scope security case, and the grouped counts' status-blind
contract); 15 new bUnit page tests (page-1 request, server total drives the pager,
Next re-queries, tiles show server counts not page counts, tile filter + toggle,
system-wide vs site-scoped scope push, debounce collapses a keystroke burst to one
query, clear-filters, dispose with an armed timer). The two existing Deployments
suites re-point their reload assertions at the new query.
Doc: Component-CentralUI.md Deployment section — the "no server-side paging" known
residual is replaced by the shipped design.
Applies the family-wide admin-UI cleanup playbook to the Central UI so the
Blazor surfaces stop diverging from the shared kit: buttons are grouped rather
than individually sized, long cell values are contained instead of widening
tables, and hard-coded colours give way to theme tokens.
The headline fix is that MainLayout passed Accent="#2f5fd0" to ThemeShell,
which the kit emits as an inline style on the shell root. Being a descendant of
<html>, it beat the [data-bs-theme="dark"] override for the entire app, so the
dark accent had never rendered. Declaring --accent in site.css :root instead
lets both schemes resolve; light is unchanged because the value already matched
the kit's light default.
Theme pins to 0.4.1, which upstreams the local .btn sizing block verbatim, so
that block is deleted here rather than duplicated. Verified byte-identical
before removal; the repo now declares no --bs-btn-* anywhere.
NOT purely cosmetic, contrary to the sweep's stated scope: four detail-modal
surfaces (NotificationReport, ConfigurationAuditLog, ParkedMessages,
SiteCallsReport) were additionally refactored from holding the selected record
to holding its id and re-resolving from the current page each render, with the
resolve doubling as the visibility gate. A background refresh that drops the
row now closes the modal instead of showing a stale snapshot. This is a
behaviour change and is called out rather than buried: a full-suite run turned
up one intermittent CentralUI failure, CloseButton_DismissesModal, whose stack
(GetRequiredEventBindingEntry during DispatchEventAsync) indicates the handler
was disposed between render and click — a window the previous field-held record
made structurally impossible. Treat the modal lifecycle here as unreviewed.
Build 0/0; suite green apart from that one intermittent failure.
