Thanks for implementing the full store/MCP/HTTP path and for addressing the original expanded-allocation finding. I reviewed exact head 877ce784cab440521ec26181bc82b9e7651c6728 against current main@70870987f56ae662acf3cfa36fa7e9a99efa9fb3. The focused store, MCP, and server tests pass on the candidate head, and git diff --check is clean. This still needs changes before approval.
1. Rebase semantically onto current main
The synthetic merge conflicts in:
DOCS.mdinternal/mcp/mcp_test.gointernal/server/server.gointernal/server/server_test.gointernal/store/store.go
This cannot be resolved by mechanically taking either side. The implementation predates current title/content admission, observation-project immutability, UTF-8-safe truncation, truncation metadata, sync behavior, MCP project-ownership checks, and response-envelope handling. Please reimplement the feature on current main while preserving all of those contracts, especially the ownership checks in the current handleUpdate path.
2. Preserve observation validity and exact no-op semantics
The current transform can replace the complete content with "" or whitespace/private-only output and then persist an invalid observation. Validate the post-replacement, post-redaction result and roll the transaction back with the current empty-content error.
An empty or non-matching find is documented as a content no-op, but the candidate still sanitizes/truncates the existing content. Preserve the stored content byte-for-byte in those cases while retaining the explicitly designed revision and sync side effects.
The bounded writer also clips raw bytes and can split a multi-byte rune. Reuse current main's UTF-8-safe truncation semantics and add boundary coverage.
3. Bound work, not only retained output
replaceAndNormalizeObservationContent bounds the bytes retained in memory, but it continues walking every byte of every replacement for every match after the output is already truncated. Because replace is externally supplied and PATCH decoding is not bounded here, a modest request can amplify into very large CPU work.
Please add an early-stop/bounded-work design that remains correct around private-tag state, apply an appropriate request/input bound, and cover the amplification case. The existing 32-match × 256 KiB test proves the final output, not that work stops at the storage boundary.
4. Keep MCP and documentation contracts aligned
- Report replacement-driven truncation through the current MCP truncation metadata/warning path;
contentLencurrently covers direct content only. - Keep current project-resolution/ownership checks and response envelope behavior.
- Do not document
projectas a publicmem_updatefield: the public schema does not expose it, and observation project identity is immutable on current main. - Preserve the current tool counts and other documentation changes added since this branch diverged.
Required regression coverage should include replacement-to-empty rejection, exact empty/non-match content no-op, UTF-8 truncation boundaries, enrolled and unenrolled sync behavior, MCP ownership/envelope/truncation metadata, HTTP/MCP omitted/empty/null/malformed combinations, literal regex characters, overlapping matches, and bounded-work stress.
Review size
The current diff is 769 additions + 13 deletions across seven files, above the 400-line review budget, and I could not find an approved size:exception. Please make one honest split: first the current-main store contract with its behavior tests, then MCP/HTTP/docs with their transport tests. If the corrected core cannot be split safely after that pass, request an explicit maintainer size exception with the final line count rather than separating tests from the behavior they protect.

UpdateObservationParamssupports pairedfindandreplaceupdates, but the handler's field-presence guard omits both fields. A valid find/replace-only PATCH therefore returns400beforeStore.UpdateObservationruns. If an invalid pair reaches the store, its validation errors fall through to the handler's default404response instead of the appropriate400response.Suggested fix

Cover the oversized Find boundary.
This test only makes Replace exceed MaxObservationLength. Add the equivalent oversized Find case and assert the same error and no side effects. A regression that removes the Find length check would otherwise pass.

Thanks for taking this on and for working through the store, MCP, HTTP, truncation, and sync edge cases. We refined the contract on #602 and opened #1342 as a fresh current-main implementation so the shared behavior can be reviewed as one coherent slice.\n\nTo avoid maintaining two competing implementations for the same approved issue, I’m closing this PR as superseded by #1342. Your work helped surface several of the safety cases captured in the final design, especially bounded growth and truncation behavior. |
