The graphql:: suite is 41/41 green on this head, covering the complexity and depth caps, cursor validation, pagination across owner boundaries, and the SQL-vs-Rust visibility differential. I also forced the no-rule visibility fallback permissive locally and repos_page_visibility_matches_the_shared_gate caught the leak (private and other-method exposed to an anonymous caller), so that differential is load-bearing rather than decorative. Complexity is charged in async-graphql's document validation before resolvers run, and the validator resolves variable values when charging limit-parameterized fields, so over-budget documents die early either way.
The repos hard error above 200 visible entries is the contract change #446 asks for; treating it as intended.
Findings
-
[P2] Charge each list root for the work it actually does
crates/gitlawb-node/src/graphql/query.rs:116
refUpdatesis priced50 + limit * child_complexity, butcollect_visible_ref_updatesdoes three full-table loads plus a scan floored atmax(limit, 2048)rows regardless oflimit(crates/gitlawb-node/src/api/events.rs:57-73), sorefUpdates(limit:1){id}is charged 51 while doing that fixed work. In the other direction the multiplicative formula makes the documented "Max 200" unreachable:limit:200with two selected fields already totals 450 against the 400 budget.reposPageprices the same 200-row bound additively andreposprices it flat at 50. ChargerefUpdatesa flat cost reflecting its fixed scan, or scale the collector's floor with the requested page, and make the formulas consistent enough that the documented maximums are reachable. -
[P2] Document the PostgreSQL 16 floor or drop pg_input_is_valid
crates/gitlawb-node/src/db/mod.rs:1572
pg_input_is_validexists only on PostgreSQL 16+. Compose and CI pin postgres:16, but README/CONTRIBUTING/RUN-A-NODE state no version minimum and operators supply their ownDATABASE_URL, so on PG 15 or earlier everyreposandreposPagecall errors. State the floor in the operator docs or use a version-portable validity check. -
[P2] Index the C-collation ordering or document the per-page scan bound
crates/gitlawb-node/src/db/mod.rs:1582
The page query orders and filters by(owner_key, name) COLLATE "C", butidx_repos_owner_key_name(db/mod.rs:833) is built on the default collation and cannot serve that ordering, so every page materializes and sorts the full deduped set before the keyset filter can stop it early. Add a collation-matched expression index in a new MIGRATIONS entry, or document the accepted O(total repos) per-page bound. -
[P3] Exercise all three deny arms of the reader_dids predicate
crates/gitlawb-node/src/db/mod.rs:1573
The CASE denies on invalid jsonb, on valid JSON that is not an array, and on an array containing a non-string member. The differential fixture only writesnot JSON, so the second and third arms are unpinned againstlistable_at_root. Add both shapes via raw UPDATE in the existing fixture; the expected/actual loop already checks parity. -
[P3] Single-source the page bound in messages and complexity clamps
crates/gitlawb-node/src/graphql/query.rs:88
MAX_VISIBLE_REPO_PAGE_SIZE(db/mod.rs:10) is the source of truth, but the complexity clamp and the two error strings hardcode200(query.rs:66,query.rs:76). If the bound moves, the clamp, the messages, and the meter disagree silently.
One process note, not a finding: the rustls bump duplicates #455's Cargo.lock hunk byte for byte. Whichever lands first makes the other a no-op; dropping 6fa4b26 keeps this diff to its stated purpose. CI on this head is action_required with zero jobs, which is mine to approve, not yours to clear.
Not an ask, recorded only: reposPage rejects an out-of-range limit while tasks/refUpdates clamp, and the SQL visibility predicate reimplements listable_at_root; the differential test pins the equivalence today, so a future change to the Rust gate needs a mirrored SQL change.

The delta is a single commit, 68a69f5, addressing the five findings from the last round. Verified on this head:
refUpdatesnow prices additively (100 + limit + child); the contract tests showlimit: 200reaching the resolver with one and two selected fields, and the 400 budget is still pinned red by a two-alias case.pg_input_is_validis PostgreSQL 16+; CONTRIBUTING and RUN-A-NODE now state that floor, matching the compose file and CI.- The
list_visible_repos_pagedocstring documents the accepted O(total repos) per-page sort and defers the index while migration versions 27-35 are claimed by open PRs. The claim checks out againstMIGRATIONS, the runner's version-integer dedup, and the claimed PR heads. - The differential test now exercises all three
reader_didsdeny shapes. In a scratch tree I removed each SQL arm in turn (non-string member, validity check, else-false): each removal turns the test red, so the fixtures are load-bearing. - The page bound is single-sourced through
MAX_VISIBLE_REPO_PAGE_SIZEin the clamp, the runtime error strings, and the expected-message test.
The fixes are real, but the same pricing inconsistency survives on the two sibling roots this commit didn't touch, and the new invariants can drift silently in the tests.
Findings
- [P2] Charge
reposfor the full page of work it performs
crates/gitlawb-node/src/graphql/query.rs:52
reposis priced50 + child_complexitybut its resolver callslist_visible_repos_page(caller, None, MAX_VISIBLE_REPO_PAGE_SIZE + 1), the same deduped,"C"-collated sort thatreposPage(limit: 200)runs and is charged50 + 200 + child_complexityfor. An anonymous request can carry sevenreposaliases (7 x 51 = 357 <= 400; the existing mock-root test executes exactly this fan-out) and run seven corpus-wide scans while the meter records it as barely more than onereposPagecall. Price it as the full page it is. - [P3] Reprice
tasksthe way this change repricedrefUpdates
crates/gitlawb-node/src/graphql/query.rs:193
tasksstill carries the multiplicative formula, sotasks(limit: 200) { id status }costs 450 and is rejected as too complex even though the arg description advertises "Max 200" andlist_tasksis a single LIMIT-bounded query whose cost does not scale with selected fields. The contract test at mod.rs:648 still pins that rejection, so the documented maximum stays unreachable. - [P3] Derive the test boundaries from the constants, not literals
crates/gitlawb-node/src/graphql/mod.rs:414
The boundary and alias tests still send literallimit: 200while the bound moved to a constant. BumpingMAX_VISIBLE_REF_UPDATESto 300 in a scratch tree left the entire GraphQL suite green whilerefUpdates(limit: 300), the new documented maximum, prices at 401 and is rejected. The same blind spot covers the new fixed-cost base: deleting the100 +term leaves the whole GraphQL suite green, though that base is what charges a caller for the collector's fixed table loads and up to 16 keyset pages even atlimit: 1. SendMAX_*-derived limits in the contract tests and add a case that fails if the fixed base disappears. - [P3] Keep the constant name out of public schema descriptions
crates/gitlawb-node/src/graphql/query.rs:87
descstrings and doc comments render verbatim into the schema, so introspection now returns "Page size from 1 to MAX_VISIBLE_REPO_PAGE_SIZE" and "up to MAX_VISIBLE_REPO_PAGE_SIZE entries" (the generated SDL contains the identifier literally). The runtime error strings interpolate the value correctly; use the numeric bound or unnumbered wording in the descriptions. - [P3] Assert the malformed-reader fixtures actually wrote
crates/gitlawb-node/src/graphql/query.rs:513
The threereader_didsUPDATEs discardPgQueryResult. If therepo_idkeying ever misses, the rows keep the[]written by the typed setter, which denies identically on both sides of the differential, leaving the non-array and non-string arms unexercised while the suite stays green. Assertrows_affected() == 1.
One process note, not a finding: the rustls bump commit 6fa4b26 is still on this branch and duplicates the Cargo.lock hunk in open #455; whichever lands second will need a rebase on the lockfile.
Not an ask, recorded only: the docstring's "silently skipped" mechanism is right about deployment ordering, but a literal duplicate version in MIGRATIONS is also caught loudly by migration_versions_are_strictly_increasing at CI; the narrower claim does not change the guidance.

The graphql:: suite is 42/42 green on this head, and I re-ran the guard checks rather than trusting the delta: removing limit_complexity turns seven tests red and removing limit_depth turns both depth tests red, so both caps are load-bearing; dropping the non-string-member arm from the page predicate turns repos_page_visibility_matches_the_shared_gate red on the non-string-reader row, so the SQL-vs-Rust differential still bites on this head.
The five second-round asks landed: repos prices the page it scans, tasks is additive, the schema descriptions carry a number instead of the identifier, the malformed-reader UPDATEs assert they wrote, and the boundary tests derive from the constants. Two of the fixes are incomplete in the direction the findings warned about, and one sibling root still prices emitted rows instead of the work it performs.
Findings
-
[P2] Charge reposPage for the corpus scan every page performs
crates/gitlawb-node/src/graphql/query.rs:83
reposPageprices50 + limit + child, butlist_visible_repos_pagesorts the full deduped set underCOLLATE "C"at every limit (its docstring documents the accepted O(total repos) bound), soreposPage(limit: 1)costs 53 while doing the same workreposnow charges 251 for. Seven anonymous limit:1 aliases total 371 and fit the budget, each running the scanrepospermits once. Price the scan, not the emitted rows, the wayreposdoes.refUpdatescarries the same shape in smaller form: its collector floor (max(limit, 2048)) makes a limit:1 alias cost 102 for the same walk a limit:200 alias runs, so decide whether that floor belongs in the base rather than the limit term. -
[P3] Pin the pricing terms the suite cannot see
crates/gitlawb-node/src/graphql/query.rs:55
On this head I reverted the newreposprice to50 + child_complexityand removed therefUpdatesformula clamp (limit as usize); the wholegraphql::suite stayed green at 42/42.ref_updates_fixed_base_is_chargedpins only the refUpdates base. Add a case that fails when therepospage price reverts (tworepos { name }aliases cost 502 at the new price, 102 at the old), and arefUpdates(limit: >MAX)case that must reach the resolver clamped rather than be rejected, mirroringtasks_limit_ceiling_clamped_to_200. -
[P3] Single-source the bounds the schema and tests still hardcode
crates/gitlawb-node/src/graphql/query.rs:201
The tasks bound is a bare200in the complexity formula, the resolver clamp, and the arg description; the four desc strings now print200where the bound lives inMAX_VISIBLE_REPO_PAGE_SIZE/MAX_VISIBLE_REF_UPDATES; andproduction_list_cost_scales_with_the_same_alias_countplus thetasks(limit: 200)sites still send literals, so the constant-derived conversion stopped halfway. Give tasks the same named bound the other roots have, use unnumbered wording in the desc strings, and finish deriving the remaining test limits. -
[P3] Document the complexity and depth budgets where a client can find them
crates/gitlawb-node/src/graphql/mod.rs:19
docs/graphql-pagination.mdsays a complexity budget applies but never states 400, and nothing documents the depth cap at 14; the rejection messages carry no number and no extensions code. A client that hits either cap cannot discover the limit it exceeded. Put the budgets (and that they apply per document) in the doc or in the error extensions.
One process note, not a finding: the rustls bump (6fa4b26) still duplicates the Cargo.lock hunk in open #455, so whichever lands second will need a rebase on the lockfile; and d5f7ec8's subject dropped the conventional-commit prefix CONTRIBUTING.md requires, worth rewording on the next push.
Not an ask, recorded only: /graphql has no per-caller rate brake, so the new budget is per document rather than per client; that is pre-existing surface, but it bounds what this change alone can promise.

Re-submission of the closed #408 (GraphQL cost bounds). Same review note as the closed round: the alias/depth bounds need mutation-sensitive tests proving the cost actually caps (the closed round was closed unmerged during the review shuffle), and it should land together with #466 since the two share the collector.

The graphql:: suite is 45/45 green on this head, and I re-ran the guard checks rather than trusting the delta: removing limit_complexity turns nine tests red, removing limit_depth turns both depth tests red, reverting the reposPage price to row-based turns seven_repos_page_aliases_exceed_the_budget red, and dropping the non-string-reader arm still turns the visibility differential red. All four third-round asks landed: reposPage prices the scan it runs regardless of limit, the pricing tests now bite on revert, tasks is single-sourced through MAX_VISIBLE_TASK_PAGE_SIZE, and both budgets are documented.
One boundary case in the cursor path survives, plus a few calibration asks.
Findings
-
[P2] Keep emitted cursors inside the bound
parse_repo_cursoraccepts
crates/gitlawb-node/src/graphql/query.rs:30
repo_cursoremitsbase64(JSON(owner_did, name))(query.rs:121) but parse rejects anything over 4096 bytes, and reponameis unbounded on every write path:create_repoandfork_repocheck charset only,upsert_mirror_repobinds peer-supplied names verbatim. I drove it end to end in a scratch test: a public repo nameda+ 3100bs emits an endCursor of 4167 bytes on a mid-list page,hasNextPageis true, and the nextreposPagecall returnsinvalid repository cursor. One long-named visible repo dead-ends pagination for every caller past that row. A cursor the server emits must always parse back; the clean fix is bounding repo-name length at the create/fork/mirror write paths, though any shape that makes emit and accept agree works. -
[P3] State the numbers and the remedy that actually works in the pagination doc
docs/graphql-pagination.md:71
"A smaller page or fewer aliases" cannot help areposPagedocument: its price is50 + MAX_VISIBLE_REPO_PAGE_SIZE + childregardless oflimit, so over-budget queries need fewer aliases or child fields, not a smaller page. The open thread on line 25 is also right that the doc never states the page-size maximum is 200; say it. -
[P3] Mark the
reposoverflow as breaking for release-please
crates/gitlawb-node/src/graphql/query.rs:71
reposnow returns an error where it returned the full list. It is the contract change #446 asks for and it is priced correctly, but the commit is plainfix(...)underbump-minor-pre-major, so this lands in a patch release with no breaking marker; the project convention isfix(node)!:(see open #464). A!on the merge title or aBREAKING CHANGEfooter keeps the version honest. -
[P3] Pin the two guard arms the suite still cannot see
crates/gitlawb-node/src/graphql/query.rs:143
refUpdates(limit: -1)is accepted-and-clamped only because the0inlimit.clamp(0, ...)holds; there is no negative-limit test the waytaskshas one.parse_repo_cursor's wrong-shape-JSON arm (valid base64, valid JSON, not a string pair) is never exercised either, and the invalid-inputs loop assertsmessage == limit_error || message == cursor_errorper query, so a misattributed message stays green.
One process note, not a finding: the rustls bump still duplicates #455's Cargo.lock hunk, so whichever lands second takes the lockfile rebase; and this diff shares the #[cfg(unix)] test-helper region in api/repos.rs/repo_store.rs with open #285, so a merge-order rebase may be needed there.
Not an ask, recorded only: /graphql has no per-caller rate brake, so these budgets bound work per document as the doc states; and the suggestion of a startup-time server_version_num check is optional defense-in-depth, since the documented floor was the agreed route.
The reposPage cursor embeds base64(JSON(owner_did, name)) while parse_repo_cursor rejects cursors over 4096 bytes, but repo names were unbounded on every write path. A single long-named visible repo made the server emit an endCursor it then rejected as "invalid repository cursor", dead-ending pagination for every caller past that row. Bound names to MAX_REPO_NAME_LEN (100 bytes) at the create_repo and fork_repo handlers via a shared validate_repo_name helper (bad charset is still a 400), and reject overlong peer-supplied names in Db::upsert_mirror_repo (the sync caller already drops the error and skips the mirror). Also in this round: - docs/graphql-pagination.md states the 200 page-size maximum and corrects the over-budget remedy: a smaller limit does not reduce the reposPage or repos price, which is charged at the full MAX_VISIBLE_REPO_PAGE_SIZE scan regardless of limit. - Tests pin refUpdates(limit: -1) clamping to zero rows, the parse_repo_cursor wrong-shape-JSON arm with its exact "invalid repository cursor" message, the longest-admissible-name cursor round-trip, and the mirror write-path rejection. BREAKING CHANGE: the GraphQL `repos` field now returns an error instead of the full list when more than MAX_VISIBLE_REPO_PAGE_SIZE (200) repositories are visible; larger lists must use `reposPage` with `limit`/`after`. Repository names are additionally limited to 100 bytes at creation, fork, and mirror-registration time.

The graphql:: suite is 49/49 green on this head, and I re-ran the guard checks rather than trusting the delta: removing limit_complexity turns nine tests red, limit_depth turns both depth tests red, and reverting reposPage to row pricing still turns seven_repos_page_aliases_exceed_the_budget red. On the new code: cutting the length bound, the charset arm, or the upsert_mirror_repo bail each turns its own test red, and a cursor built from the longest admissible name round-trips far under the 4096-byte parse cap. All four asks from the last round landed: names are bounded at create, fork, and mirror insert; the doc states the 200 maximum and the remedy that actually works; the commit carries !; and the wrong-shape-JSON and negative-limit arms are now pinned.
Findings
-
[P3] Assert each rejection's own message in the invalid-inputs loop
crates/gitlawb-node/src/graphql/query.rs:760
Still open from the last round's third ask: the loop acceptslimit_msg || cursor_msgfor every query, so a misattributed message is invisible. I verified by mutation: making thelimitarm return "invalid repository cursor" leaves the test green. Assert the expected message per input. -
[P3] Exercise the name bound through the handlers, not only the function
crates/gitlawb-node/src/api/repos.rs:258
repo_name_validation_rejects_bad_charset_and_overlong_namescoversvalidate_repo_namein isolation, but deleting both call sites (here andfork_repo) leaves the suite green: 287/287 over the repos, graphql, api::repos, and db:: test filters. One test driving create or fork with an overlong name through the handler pins the wiring. -
[P3] Keep the two
validate_repo_namerules visibly distinct
crates/gitlawb-node/src/api/repos.rs:224
The new function shares a name with the stricter disk-side validator atgit/repo_store.rs:624and differs in both directions: it admits names the store rejects (empty, leading-, non-ASCII alphanumeric) and rejects.that the store allows. Today a store-rejected name makescreate_repofail atrepo_store.initafter the proof is spent, and on fork produces a listed repo whose Tigris upload is silently skipped (release_after_writewarns and returns). That divergence predates this change and #412 already owns the fork half, so this is not a behavior ask: say so on the new function, and tie the store's literal100toMAX_REPO_NAME_LEN(or name the bound it actually serves) so the two do not drift apart.
One process note, not a finding: this diff rewrites the fork name-validation block that open #412 also touches, so whichever lands second takes a small rebase; the rustls bump still duplicates #455's Cargo.lock hunk too.
Not an ask, recorded only: the bound is forward-looking, so a repo row written before it with a name over 100 bytes still emits a cursor that cannot re-parse; and the per-page O(total repos) dedup scan behind reposPage is real but already documented on list_visible_repos_page, with the C-collation index deliberately deferred while migration versions 27-35 are claimed by open work.
…essages - Assert each rejection's own message in the reposPage invalid-inputs loop: the loop no longer accepts either message for every query, so a misattributed message (limit arm returning the cursor message) goes red. - Pin the create/fork name-bound wiring through the handler: new test drives create_repo with an overlong name via test_state_lazy and asserts the 400; deleting the validate_repo_name call site would proceed to the lazy DB pool and fail with a connection error instead. - Document the API-side vs disk-side validate_repo_name divergence on the new function, and tie the store's literal 100 to MAX_REPO_NAME_LEN so the two validators cannot drift apart on length.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
The graphql:: suite is green on this head, and I re-ran the guard checks rather than trusting the delta: removing limit_complexity turns nine tests red, limit_depth turns both depth tests red, and reverting reposPage to row pricing still turns seven_repos_page_aliases_exceed_the_budget red. On the delta itself: cutting the length bound, the charset arm, or the upsert_mirror_repo bail each turns its own test red; deleting the create_repo call site turns the new handler test red; and the misattributed-message mutation that stayed green last round (the limit arm returning "invalid repository cursor") now fails the per-input assertion. cargo fmt --all -- --check and cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings are clean.
All three asks from the last round landed: the invalid-inputs loop asserts each query's own message, the handler-level test pins the create-path wiring, and the docstring's divergence claims check out against both validators, with the store's literal now shared through MAX_REPO_NAME_LEN.
One process note, not a finding: the Cargo.lock rustls bump still duplicates #455's hunk, and this diff still shares the fork name-validation block with #412, so whichever lands second takes the rebase.
Not an ask, recorded only: fork_repo's validate_repo_name call site is still unpinned (I deleted it and the suite stayed green across the api::repos, graphql, and db filters), and the docstring's "fails later at repo_store.init" net does not cover fork, which never calls init. If that call is ever lost, a bad fork_name reaches repo_disk_path verbatim. The last round's ask allowed one pin and #412 owns the fork half, so the pin belongs there.
Also recorded, not an ask: a mirror row with no canonical twin and no visibility rules is is_public by construction and lists to anonymous callers on reposPage, exactly as repos already does on main; I seeded one and watched both fields return it. Mirror admission is quarantine-flagged, and the dedup_cte full-corpus sort per page stays the documented, deliberately deferred trade-off on list_visible_repos_page.

Summary
Anonymous GraphQL documents can repeat DB-backed root fields through aliases, multiplying unpaginated database reads without a request-level work budget. This change rejects overly complex or deeply nested documents during validation, before resolvers start.
