Well-localised perf fixes across 8 modules.
Lock decoupling / SQL streaming:
- AuditLog-005: SqliteAuditWriter gains dedicated read-only _readConnection
(+ _readLock) backed by WAL journal mode. GetBacklogStatsAsync,
ReadPendingAsync, ReadPendingSinceAsync, ReadForwardedAsync no longer
contend with the hot-path INSERT lock — backlog probes on a 30s timer
can't stall the writer under multi-hundred-K Pending backlog.
- SEL-022: dropped Cache=Shared from SiteEventLogger's default connection
string (single-connection logger; mode was dormant config).
Memory / streaming:
- CLI-019: bundle export streams base64 in 1 MB-aligned chunks via
Convert.TryFromBase64Chars straight into the FileStream — no more
full-bundle byte[] allocation.
- CentralUI-031: TransportImport now stages the upload to a per-session
temp file under Path.GetTempPath() (replaces in-memory byte[] field);
page implements IDisposable to delete the temp file on reset / new
upload / dispose. Per-circuit working set drops from ~100 MB to ~80 KB.
N+1 hoisting:
- Transport-008: added ITemplateEngineRepository.GetTemplatesWithChildrenAsync
bulk method; BundleImporter.PreviewAsync calls it once instead of per-
template-name. Single query with .Include(...).AsSplitQuery().
- DM-023: BuildDeployArtifactsCommandAsync's per-site loop now references
a pre-fetched GlobalArtifactSnapshot (shared scripts, external systems,
DB connections, notification lists, SMTP) instead of re-querying per site.
- MgmtSvc-023: HandleQueryDeployments unfiltered branch uses one
GetAllInstancesAsync bulk load + Dictionary<int,int?> lookup (was a
GetInstanceByIdAsync per record).
Small allocations / per-tick rebuilds:
- InboundAPI-019: AuditWriteMiddleware gates EnableBuffering() on
RequestHasBody() so GET/HEAD/DELETE/TRACE/OPTIONS and Content-Length:0
requests skip the FileBufferingReadStream allocation.
- NotifOutbox-006: ResolveAdapters dictionary now cached on
_adaptersCache (built lazily on first sweep) + actor-lifetime
_adaptersScope; ResolveAdapters no longer rebuilds per dispatch tick.
Verify-only:
- Comm-017: Confirmed _inProgressDeployments was deleted by Comm-016 in
commit ac96b83 — marked Resolved with that attribution. No code change.
Doc-correction:
- NS-022: Updated MailKitSmtpClientWrapper XML doc to spell out single-
connection / per-delivery-factory contract (option (b) — transient
client per Send — rejected because it re-handshakes TLS per email).
10+ new regression tests across 8 test projects. Build clean; affected
suites all green. README regenerated: 54 open (was 65).
Concurrency hazards, DI lifetime hygiene, and one verify-only confirmation
across 8 modules. Highlights:
Concurrency:
- CentralUI-030: SandboxConsoleCapture writes routed through WriteSynchronized
locking on the captured StringWriter — intra-script Task fan-out can no
longer corrupt the per-call buffer.
- Commons-021: ExternalCallResult.Response now backed by Lazy<dynamic?>
(ExecutionAndPublication) — no more benign double-parse race.
- CD-017: DeploymentManagerRepository.DeleteDeploymentRecordAsync now takes
an expected RowVersion and seeds entry.OriginalValues so EF emits
DELETE ... WHERE Id=@id AND RowVersion=@prior; stale RowVersion now
throws DbUpdateConcurrencyException instead of silent overwrite.
- Transport-009: AuditCorrelationContext.BundleImportId backed by
AsyncLocal<Guid?> so concurrent imports get per-logical-call isolation
(was a scoped instance shared via AuditService across runs).
DI / lifetime:
- AuditLog-003: All 3 AuditLog actor handlers switched to CreateAsyncScope
+ await using — async EF disposal no longer swallowed.
- AuditLog-007: INodeIdentityProvider resolution standardised on
GetRequiredService<>() (was mixed with GetService<>()).
- AuditLog-011: AddAuditLogHealthMetricsBridge guarded by sentinel
descriptor check — calling twice no longer double-registers the hosted
service.
Shutdown / supervision:
- SiteCallAudit-002: AkkaHostedService adds a CoordinatedShutdown
cluster-leave task (drain-site-call-audit-singleton) that issues a
bounded GracefulStop(10s) so failover waits for in-flight upserts.
Registration safety:
- NS-020: AkkaHostedService now guards NotificationForwarder S&F
registration with _notificationDeliveryHandlerRegistered + throws
InvalidOperationException on double-register to make the regression loud.
VERIFY-only closures:
- NotifOutbox-005: Confirmed already closed by CD-015 fix (ac96b83) —
NotificationOutboxRepository.InsertIfNotExistsAsync uses the same
raw-SQL IF NOT EXISTS + 2601/2627 swallow pattern; race eliminated.
5+ new regression tests (CentralUI sandbox WhenAll, ExternalCallResult
64-reader Barrier, AuditLog DI idempotency, RowVersion stale-throw,
SiteCallAudit-002 shutdown drain). Build clean; affected suites all green.
README regenerated: 65 open (was 75).
Each finding is a focused validation guard or upper bound at a trust boundary.
Highlights:
- Commons-015: EncryptionMetadata ctor now validates Algorithm (AES-256-GCM
only), Kdf (PBKDF2-SHA256 only), Iterations ([100k, 10M]), non-null Salt/IV.
- Transport-004: new BundleUnlockRateLimiter (sliding-window, per-key,
singleton) wired into BundleImporter.LoadAsync; over-budget callers see
BundleUnlockRateLimitedException. Per-bundle 3-strike + per-window cap.
- ESG-022: ExternalSystemClient.InvokeHttpAsync allow-lists the documented
GET/POST/PUT/PATCH/DELETE set (case-insensitive); unknown verbs throw.
- SEL-015: SiteEventLogger queue now bounded (10k cap, DropOldest); dropped
events fault their Task and increment FailedWriteCount so the drop is
observable instead of an unbounded memory growth.
- SEL-017: EventLogQueryService clamps caller-supplied PageSize to a new
MaxQueryPageSize cap (default 500) so int.MaxValue can't OOM the host.
- SEL-020: LogEventAsync rejects severities outside {Info, Warning, Error}
(matches SQLite BINARY-collation query filter).
- InboundAPI-020: ContentType "json" check now case-insensitive
(application/JSON no longer slips through as not-json).
- InboundAPI-024: _knownBadMethods capped at 1000 entries (drops new entries
once full); per-request DB lookup remains the correctness path.
- SR-025: HandleSetStaticAttribute validates the attribute name against the
deployed config; unknown names now return Success=false instead of
leaking orphan override rows into the SQLite store.
- TE-021: MoveTemplateAsync runs the sibling-name-collision check at the
destination, mirroring TemplateFolderService.MoveFolderAsync.
- TE-022: LockEnforcer's once-locked-stays-locked rule now also covers
LockedInDerived (was previously only IsLocked).
New regression tests across 8 test projects (EncryptionMetadata, rate
limiter, ESG client allow-list, SEL bounded channel / PageSize clamp /
severity validation, InboundAPI ContentType + bad-methods cap, SiteRT
unknown-attribute, TemplateEngine MoveTemplate + LockedInDerived).
Build clean; affected suites all green. README regenerated: 93 open (was 104).
Note: a separate manual re-run was needed for the SiteEventLogging hunk
because its initial subagent's source edits never landed on disk despite
reporting success (file-collision-style failure mode).
Transport-001: template Overwrite now diff-and-merges the bundle's
Attributes / Alarms / Scripts onto the target template via three private
helpers (SyncTemplateAttributesAsync / SyncTemplateAlarmsAsync /
SyncTemplateScriptsAsync). Each helper emits one audit row per detected
add / update / delete and feeds the post-merge state into the existing
ResolveAlarmScriptLinks and ResolveCompositionEdges passes.
Transport-002: external-system Overwrite now syncs the Methods collection
via a parallel SyncExternalSystemMethodsAsync helper mirroring the T-001
shape, with ExternalSystemMethodAdded / Updated / Deleted audit rows.
Both fixes are covered by new integration tests in BundleImporterApplyTests.
README regenerated — open findings dropped from 146 to 136; all 10 open
High findings are now closed (0 Critical, 0 High, 46 Medium, 90 Low
remaining).
T-003: move the unlock lockout server-side. The 3-strike counter used to
live in the Razor page only — a second tab / CLI caller could re-upload
the same bytes and grind PBKDF2 indefinitely. The counter now lives in
IBundleSessionStore, keyed by ContentHash, so retries against identical
bundle bytes are throttled regardless of client. BundleLockedException
surfaces the new typed error path.
T-005: bind the manifest's non-derivative fields into AES-GCM AAD. A
SHA-256 of the manifest (with ContentHash + Encryption normalised to
sentinels) is now passed to AesGcm.Encrypt / .Decrypt, so a tampered
SourceEnvironment / ExportedBy / CreatedAtUtc on a stolen bundle yields
an authentication-tag mismatch instead of slipping past the Step-4
typo-resistant confirmation gate.
T-006: cap zip entry count, decompressed length, and compression ratio
in LoadAsync's envelope validator BEFORE any payload is decompressed,
using ZipArchiveEntry.Length / .CompressedLength. New TransportOptions
fields default to 4 entries / 200 MB / 50x ratio.
T-007: clear decrypted plaintext on the ApplyAsync failure path and zero
the buffer on success before removing the session, so a 100 MB
DecryptedContent doesn't sit in memory for the 30-min TTL after a failed
apply. A BundleSessionEvictionService BackgroundService now also drives
EvictExpired periodically so abandoned sessions clear without needing a
fresh Get() call to trigger lazy eviction.
Also resolves NO-010 — the misleading "writer never throws" XML doc was
the same code+comment my prior NO-004 await-the-writer fix already
rewrote.
Re-applies the full 10-category checklist to every src/ project — including
first-time reviews of the four newer components (AuditLog, NotificationOutbox,
SiteCallAudit, Transport) — so the code-reviews/ index reflects today's
codebase rather than the 2026-05-16 baseline. 172 new Open findings (0
Critical, 18 High, 62 Medium, 92 Low); 481 findings total across 23 modules.
regen-readme.py now derives each module's Last reviewed + Commit from its
findings.md header instead of hard-coding 2026-05-16 / 9c60592, so future
single-module re-reviews show their own date in the Module Status table.
