# Batch 11 FileStore Init Implementation Plan > **For Codex:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use `executeplan` to implement this plan task-by-task. **Goal:** Implement and verify all Batch 11 FileStore Init features/tests with real behavior parity to `server/filestore.go`, then close the batch with evidence-backed status updates. **Architecture:** Execute Batch 11 in three vertical feature groups (17, 16, 6 features), each followed by targeted test waves and strict gates. Keep implementation centered in `JetStream/FileStore` + `MessageBlock` + `FileStoreTypes`, and use backlog test classes as the only status evidence source. Every status change is chunked, logged, and tied to passing build/test output. **Tech Stack:** .NET 10, C# latest, xUnit 3, Shouldly, NSubstitute, PortTracker CLI, SQLite (`porting.db`) **Design doc:** `docs/plans/2026-02-27-batch-11-filestore-init-design.md` --- I'm using `writeplan` to create the implementation plan. ## Batch Inputs - Batch: `11` (`FileStore Init`) - Dependency: Batch `8` - Features: `39` - Tests: `123` - Go source focus: `golang/nats-server/server/filestore.go` Feature groups (max ~20 each): - Group 1 (17): `955,956,957,958,960,961,962,963,964,965,966,967,968,969,970,972,974` - Group 2 (16): `975,976,978,979,980,989,990,998,1057,1152,1153,1154,1158,1163,1164,1165` - Group 3 (6): `1200,1235,1239,1248,1261,1262` Primary test classes: - `JetStreamFileStoreTests` (116 mapped tests) - `ConcurrencyTests1` (5 mapped tests) - `ConcurrencyTests2` (2 mapped tests) --- ## MANDATORY VERIFICATION PROTOCOL > **NON-NEGOTIABLE:** every task below must follow this protocol exactly. ### Per-Feature Verification Loop (REQUIRED for every feature ID) 1. Read source intent from Go: - `dotnet run --project tools/NatsNet.PortTracker -- feature show --db porting.db` - Read exact Go span in `golang/nats-server/server/filestore.go`. 2. Write minimal C# implementation in mapped target files. 3. Build immediately: - `dotnet build dotnet/` 4. Run related tests (method/class filter) for that feature's behavior. 5. Only then include the feature in `complete/verified` candidate lists. ### Stub Detection Check (REQUIRED after each feature subgroup and test class) Run all scans below; any hit is a blocker: ```bash # Production stubs/placeholders rg -n "NotImplementedException|TODO|PLACEHOLDER|throw new NotSupportedException" \ dotnet/src/ZB.MOM.NatsNet.Server/JetStream -g '*.cs' # Empty method bodies in FileStore-related source rg -n "^\s*(public|private|internal|protected).*\)\s*\{\s*\}$" \ dotnet/src/ZB.MOM.NatsNet.Server/JetStream/FileStore.cs \ dotnet/src/ZB.MOM.NatsNet.Server/JetStream/MessageBlock.cs # Test stubs/placeholders rg -n "NotImplementedException|Assert\.True\(true\)|Assert\.Pass|// TODO|// PLACEHOLDER|ShouldBe\(true\);" \ dotnet/tests/ZB.MOM.NatsNet.Server.Tests/ImplBacklog/JetStreamFileStoreTests.Impltests.cs \ dotnet/tests/ZB.MOM.NatsNet.Server.Tests/ImplBacklog/ConcurrencyTests1.Impltests.cs \ dotnet/tests/ZB.MOM.NatsNet.Server.Tests/ImplBacklog/ConcurrencyTests2.Impltests.cs ``` ### Build Gate (REQUIRED after each feature group) `dotnet build dotnet/` must pass before moving to next group or updating status. ### Test Gate (REQUIRED before marking features `verified`) All related tests for the changed feature group must pass: ```bash dotnet test dotnet/tests/ZB.MOM.NatsNet.Server.Tests/ \ --filter "FullyQualifiedName~ZB.MOM.NatsNet.Server.Tests.ImplBacklog.JetStreamFileStoreTests" \ --verbosity normal dotnet test dotnet/tests/ZB.MOM.NatsNet.Server.Tests/ \ --filter "FullyQualifiedName~ZB.MOM.NatsNet.Server.Tests.ImplBacklog.ConcurrencyTests1" \ --verbosity normal dotnet test dotnet/tests/ZB.MOM.NatsNet.Server.Tests/ \ --filter "FullyQualifiedName~ZB.MOM.NatsNet.Server.Tests.ImplBacklog.ConcurrencyTests2" \ --verbosity normal ``` ### Status Update Protocol (REQUIRED, evidence-backed) - Max **15 IDs** per `feature batch-update` or `test batch-update` call. - Status flow: - Features: `deferred -> stub -> complete -> verified` - Tests: `deferred -> stub -> verified` (or `deferred` with explicit reason) - Save evidence output before each status update (recommended path: `/tmp/batch11-evidence/`). - Never mark `verified` without matching passing output for the exact scope. Example chunked update: ```bash /usr/local/share/dotnet/dotnet run --project tools/NatsNet.PortTracker -- \ feature batch-update --ids "955,956,957,958,960,961,962,963,964,965,966,967,968,969,970" \ --set-status complete --db porting.db --execute ``` ### Checkpoint Protocol Between Tasks (REQUIRED) After each major task (each group features+tests): 1. `dotnet build dotnet/` 2. Run the three backlog test-class gates above. 3. Commit checkpoint: - `git add dotnet/src/ZB.MOM.NatsNet.Server/JetStream dotnet/tests/ZB.MOM.NatsNet.Server.Tests/ImplBacklog porting.db` - `git commit -m "feat(batch11): complete group filestore init + tests"` Do not start the next task until checkpoint passes. --- ## ANTI-STUB GUARDRAILS (NON-NEGOTIABLE) ### Forbidden Patterns Do not introduce or leave any of the following in feature or test code: - `throw new NotImplementedException(...)` - Empty method bodies `{ }` for mapped feature methods - `// TODO` or `// PLACEHOLDER` in implemented Batch 11 methods/tests - Tests that only assert constants/string literals unrelated to production behavior - `Assert.True(true)`, `Assert.Pass()`, or equivalent always-pass constructs ### Hard Limits - Max ~20 features per task group (already fixed as 17/16/6) - Max 15 IDs per status update command - Max one feature group per verification/update cycle - Zero stub-scan hits allowed before any `complete`/`verified` updates - No deferred item may be left without a concrete reason ### If You Get Stuck 1. Stop implementation for that item. 2. Mark it `deferred` with explicit reason (infra, missing dependency, non-portable behavior, etc.). 3. Do **not** add placeholder logic or fake tests. 4. Continue with next item in the same group. Example: ```bash /usr/local/share/dotnet/dotnet run --project tools/NatsNet.PortTracker -- \ feature update --status deferred --db porting.db \ --override "blocked: requires " ``` Use the same pattern for tests. --- ### Task 1: Batch 11 Working Set and Evidence Scaffold **Files:** - Modify: `porting.db` - Create: `/tmp/batch11-evidence/` **Step 1: Confirm batch and dependency state** Run: ```bash /usr/local/share/dotnet/dotnet run --project tools/NatsNet.PortTracker -- batch show 11 --db porting.db /usr/local/share/dotnet/dotnet run --project tools/NatsNet.PortTracker -- batch list --db porting.db /usr/local/share/dotnet/dotnet run --project tools/NatsNet.PortTracker -- report summary --db porting.db ``` Expected: Batch 11 pending, depends on 8, 39 features, 123 tests. **Step 2: Start batch** Run: ```bash /usr/local/share/dotnet/dotnet run --project tools/NatsNet.PortTracker -- batch start 11 --db porting.db ``` Expected: batch marked in-progress (if dependency checks pass). **Step 3: Mark Group 1 features/tests as stub (chunked <=15 IDs)** Run chunked `feature batch-update ... --set-status stub` and `test batch-update ... --set-status stub` for Group 1 scope.
