Layer 1/7: storage, leases and canonicalization guards

Durable state for Guardian execution and the guards that keep canonicalization from disturbing it.

  • crates/shared: execution states, failure codes and the transaction request envelope
  • migration 2026-10-01-000001_execution_reservations: execution_reservations (one active per account, enforced by a partial unique index), execution_submissions (the no-retry boundary evidence), execution_outcomes
  • storage trait and the Postgres and filesystem backends: fenced reservation writes, the atomic boundary admission (candidate plus evidence), promotion settling the execution, queue and execution mutual exclusion
  • coordination/execution_leases.rs: per-account fenced leases
  • canonicalization: ProtectedByExecution on every destructive path for a candidate an execution owns

Review focus: atomicity of each write, fencing, and that no path can discard or re-submit a candidate past the boundary. About 2.1k of the lines are execution_reservation_tests.rs.

This layer does not compile on its own (one crate split across layers); the server builds from layer 4.

Review only

This PR is one layer of a review stack for #510. Do not merge it. #510 is the branch that is tested, qualified on devnet and merged; the top of this stack has exactly the same tree as #510.

Stack: design (#370) → 1 storage → 2 executor → 3 lifecycle → 4 API and ops → 5 Rust SDK → 6 TS SDK → 7 qualification. Each PR's base is the layer below, so the diff shows only this layer.

Review feedback is fixed on #510 and the affected layers are rebuilt from it.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

Walkthrough

The change adds shared execution and request-envelope types, account-scoped leases, and filesystem and PostgreSQL storage for execution reservations, submissions, and outcomes. It also adds proposal request-byte limits and updates canonicalization to protect candidates associated with active executions.

Changes

Guardian execution flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Shared execution and request contracts
Cargo.toml, crates/shared/Cargo.toml, crates/shared/src/execution.rs, crates/shared/src/request_envelope.rs, crates/shared/src/lib.rs, fixtures/miden-multisig-client/*
Shared types define execution states and failure codes. The transaction-request envelope records a format version, protocol line, checksum, and Base64 bytes, and validates them when decoding.
Storage contracts and durable schema
crates/server/migrations/2026-10-01-000001_execution_reservations/*, crates/server/src/schema.rs, crates/server/src/storage/mod.rs, crates/server/src/storage/execution.rs, crates/server/tests/migration_versions.rs
Storage contracts and schema add request-byte accounting, execution reservations, submission evidence, outcomes, and typed lifecycle operations. A migration test checks that version prefixes are unique.
Account-scoped execution leases
crates/server/src/coordination/*
Coordination handles now provide in-memory or PostgreSQL execution leases. The in-memory implementation checks holder, token, and expiry.
Filesystem admission and execution lifecycle
crates/server/src/storage/filesystem.rs, crates/server/src/storage/execution_reservation_tests.rs
The filesystem backend enforces proposal count and request-byte limits, persists execution records, and checks reservation ownership during admission, resolution, and promotion. Tests cover lifecycle outcomes and interrupted writes.
PostgreSQL admission and execution transactions
crates/server/src/storage/postgres.rs, crates/server/src/storage/postgres_execution.rs, crates/server/src/storage/execution_reservation_tests.rs
PostgreSQL implements request-limited proposal admission and transactional reservation, candidate admission, resolution, and settlement. Tests cover fencing, concurrent operations, and fault recovery.
Server wiring and candidate protection
crates/server/Cargo.toml, crates/server/src/metrics/storage.rs, crates/server/src/storage/encryption/decorator.rs, crates/server/src/services/delta_commit.rs, crates/server/src/jobs/canonicalization/*
Server dependencies and storage decorators include execution operations. Candidate commits report execution conflicts, and canonicalization and reconciliation handle candidates protected by active executions.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to ebec9

If the filesystem backend is interrupted at the wrong point during a promotion, the account can stay locked under an execution that never settles. New submissions for that account are then refused. Fix the recovery path before merging. A smaller validation gap lets execution evidence disagree with the stored candidate.

This rabbit checks the lease token bright,
And guards the candidate through the night.
A sealed request keeps bytes in line,
With checksum, version, protocol sign.
When promotion marks the work complete,
The rabbit thumps a happy beat.

process_full_candidate, detect when the candidate’s stored commitment matches
delta.new_commitment and resume promotion by reconstructing the target as an
AppliedState and rerunning canonicalize_verified_delta, or use an equivalent
repair path that writes the canonical delta and settles the execution.

Review comments at @crates/server/src/storage/postgres_execution.rs:
- Line 576: In admit_execution_candidate_tx, validate evidence before opening
the transaction: require evidence.account_id, evidence.candidate_nonce, and
evidence.base_commitment to match delta.account_id, delta.nonce, and
delta.prev_commitment, respectively, and reject mismatches.

#560's superseded_deltas archive is on this branch now, so the
parked-delta refusal (409 conflict_pending_delta with meta.reason
parked_delta, ACCOUNT_INADMISSIBLE at the boundary) goes. Admission moves
a retained or client-abandoned row at the candidate's nonce to the archive
(deleting it only when retention is off). If that row's transaction lands
instead of Guardian's, reconciliation resolves the execution
CANDIDATE_DISCARDED and then restores the archived row, so Guardian
catches up; commit_promoted_execution still settles only an execution
whose expected commitment is the promoted state. Both SDKs drop the
refusal's reason field, and the TLA model replaces the refusal with the
archive.

Also resume a Postgres promotion whose target a /configure re-onboarding
already wrote (#528 review): promote_candidate refused it as StaleBase on
every pass, wedging the execution that owns the candidate. The filesystem
backend already resumed.
