Executes the two claims D12 rests on (#2187 comment). Both hold.

D12 proposes making the drive state artifact a SQLite file rather than the JSON D1 chose. I argued it there from measurements, but the load-bearing part was unexecuted: can a browser ATTACH a second database at all? This branch answers that, and turns up three things that were not the question.

tool/drive_state_prototype.sh
vm/ffi web/wasm (Chrome)
tests 13 pass 14 pass
SQLite 3.45.1 3.45.1
20,000 rows → artifact 3,194,880 B 3,162,112 B
build 37 ms 460 ms
import 45 ms 461 ms

Case 1, the producer. ATTACH an empty database, build the frozen schema, copy one drive's rows through an explicit column projection, DETACH, read the bytes back. On web the attached database is a real, separate VFS entry — the test asserts its first sixteen bytes are SQLite format 3.

Case 2, the consumer. Place received bytes, ATTACH, refuse anything that is not the exact agreed shape, merge with INSERT INTO main.x SELECT … FROM artifact.x. The read gate refuses all six cases it is given — a view, a trigger, an extra table, a disagreeing entity count, a foreign drive id, an unimplemented version — and the test asserts the target is still empty after each refusal.

No row becomes a Dart object in either direction. That is the property D12 is buying.

Three findings that were not the question

The app's web database is not a WASM VFS. lib/models/database/web.dart opens WebDatabase.withStorage(...) — drift's deprecated sql.js backend, which is what web/sql-wasm.wasm and web/index.html:332 are for. So "Drift's WASM VFS" in my D12 write-up describes something this app does not run. Adopting D12 means migrating the web database layer to drift/wasm.dart first, and that cost is not in the proposal. It should be costed before D12 is accepted — though the backend in use is deprecated, so the work is worth doing either way. The prototype therefore drives package:sqlite3 directly, not Drift.

web/sqlite3.wasm is dead weight, and broken anyway. It and web/worker.js are referenced by nothing — not index.html, not lib/. The wasm also cannot load under the resolved sqlite3: 2.4.2:

LinkError: WebAssembly.instantiate(): Import #0 "dart" "fs_delete":
function import requires a callable

Wrong ABI; the matching build is 697,758 bytes against the vendored 1,348,108. Removing both files is an easy separate cleanup worth ~1.3 MB in the deployed build.

secure_delete differs by platform, and the browser is the unsafe one. D12 argues the artifact must be built up rather than torn down, because DROP TABLE leaves dropped bytes on the freelist. Measured, that is true only when secure_delete is off:

build PRAGMA secure_delete tear-down result
vm/ffi (macOS) 2 (fast) secret not recoverable
web/wasm 0 (off) secret recoverable in the file

I stated that claim unconditionally in the D12 comment and should not have. The correction narrows it and strengthens the conclusion: the platform where it holds is the browser, which is where the producer runs, and the safety of tear-down turns out to be a property of whichever SQLite the client links rather than of our code. That is not an acceptable thing to stand between a user's wallet ciphertext and a permanent public upload. The suite asserts the leak under an explicit PRAGMA secure_delete = 0 on both platforms and prints each default rather than depending on it.

What this does not prove

  • Nothing about Drift. Direct package:sqlite3; no WasmDatabase, and it never touches the sql.js backend the app runs on web today.
  • Nothing about OPFS. The browser run uses InMemoryFileSystem, so the artifact is in memory. Bounded producer memory for a very large drive is exactly what an OPFS VFS would buy, and it is untested here.
  • No memory measurement. A browser test cannot take one. "No row becomes a Dart object" is a property of the code, readable in artifact_pipeline.dart, not a measurement.
  • Not comparable to PE-9205: Implement the drive state artifact #2188's 4 s / 9 s. 20,000 synthetic rows of one table against 41,767 files across seven sections, different columns. These timings show the pipeline is not pathological, not that it is 20× faster.
  • No encryption, signature, gzip or upload, and artifactProjection is an illustrative column subset, not D2's real seven sections.

Scope

Nothing imports application code and nothing is wired into the app. flutter test picks up the VM half; the browser half needs the script, because flutter test --platform chrome serves only the compiled test bundle and not the package's own files, so sqlite3.wasm has to be fetched and served with CORS. sqlite3 is added as a dev dependency for the same reason.

This is a prototype for a decision, not a feature. If D12 is rejected, it should be deleted; if D12 is accepted, artifact_pipeline.dart is the shape the real thing takes.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added a prototype for creating and importing drive-state artifacts across VM and browser platforms.
    • Excludes sensitive profile and key data from exported artifacts.
    • Validates artifact integrity, schema, version, drive identity, and entity counts before importing.
    • Falls back to standard synchronization when artifacts are rejected.
  • Tests

    • Added cross-platform coverage for artifact persistence, large datasets, secure deletion, and invalid artifacts.
  • Documentation

    • Documented prototype findings, benchmarks, platform behavior, and known limitations.

D12 proposes making the drive state artifact a SQLite file instead of the
JSON D1 chose. It rests on two claims nobody had executed: that a producer can
ATTACH an empty database, build it, and read its bytes back out, and that a
consumer can ATTACH a received file and merge it with INSERT INTO ... SELECT.

Both hold, on the VM and in Chrome, running the identical SQL. 20,000 rows
build in 460 ms and import in 461 ms in a browser, and no row becomes a Dart
object in either direction. The read gate refuses all six cases it is given —
a view, a trigger, an extra table, a bad entity count, a foreign drive id and
an unimplemented version — before anything is written.

Three things turned up that were not the question:

- The app's web database is not a WASM VFS. lib/models/database/web.dart opens
  drift's deprecated sql.js backend, so adopting D12 means migrating to
  drift/wasm.dart first. That cost is not in the proposal.
- web/sqlite3.wasm is referenced by nothing and cannot load under the resolved
  sqlite3 2.4.2 anyway — wrong ABI, LinkError on "fs_delete". It and
  web/worker.js are about 1.3 MB of dead weight in the deployed build.
- secure_delete defaults to 0 on wasm and 2 on macOS, so the claim that
  tear-down leaks key material is true on the browser and false on the VM.
  D12 stated it unconditionally; the finding narrows the claim and strengthens
  the conclusion, since the browser is where the producer runs.

Nothing here imports application code or is wired into the app. sqlite3 is
added as a dev dependency because the prototype drives it directly rather than
through Drift.

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to c6111

This PR adds a test-only SQLite artifact producer and importer, so it does not currently affect users or production data. Before this design is reused in production, row ownership, repeated-import behavior, and reliable version-matched browser test assets should be addressed; the change is otherwise mergeable with explicit follow-up.

SQLite official documentation INSERT OR REPLACE behavior conflict constraint ordinary INSERT when no constraint

💡 Result:

In SQLite, the behavior of INSERT OR REPLACE is identical to an ordinary INSERT when there are no constraint conflicts [1][2][3]. When no constraints are violated, the statement simply inserts the new row as expected [3]. The REPLACE keyword (or the INSERT OR REPLACE clause) is a conflict resolution algorithm that only activates if a constraint violation occurs [1][4][3]. Its specific behaviors are as follows: 1. When a UNIQUE or PRIMARY KEY constraint violation occurs: The pre-existing row that caused the violation is deleted, and the new row is then inserted [4][3]. 2. When a NOT NULL constraint violation occurs: SQLite attempts to replace the NULL value with the column's default value [4]. If no default value is defined, it reverts to the default ABORT algorithm, causing the statement to roll back and halt [4]. 3. When a CHECK or FOREIGN KEY constraint violation occurs: It acts like the default ABORT algorithm, meaning the entire statement is rolled back [4]. Because REPLACE deletes rows to resolve conflicts, it may trigger delete triggers (if recursive triggers are enabled) [4]. Notably, it does not invoke update hooks for the rows it deletes, nor does it increment the database change counter for those deletions [4]. If your goal is to handle specific uniqueness conflicts without the broad deletion behavior of REPLACE, SQLite recommends using the UPSERT clause (ON CONFLICT) [5][6][7]. UPSERT allows you to perform an UPDATE or a no-op when a specific uniqueness constraint is violated, rather than unconditionally deleting and replacing the existing record [5][6].

Citations:


Add identity constraints to the target fixture.

importArtifact uses INSERT OR REPLACE, which behaves as a normal INSERT when no uniqueness conflict exists. Without constraints, repeated imports can duplicate rows. Add the production identities (drives.id and (fileId, driveId, dateCreated)) and test importing the same artifact twice without increasing either table count.

Make the WASM cache version-aware and atomic.

Line 30 accepts any non-empty cached file. A failed curl can leave partial bytes at $WASM. A later sqlite3 version change also reuses the old bytes. The browser test can then fail or run against a WASM build that does not match pubspec.lock.

🔥 via Firebase Hosting GitHub Action 🌎

Sign: a224ebaee2f0939e7665e7630e7d3d6cd7d0f8b0

D12's bounded-memory claim depends on OPFS, and drift picks its storage tier at
runtime from browser feature detection. WasmDatabase.probe() reports the choice
but is Dart inside main.dart.js, so it cannot be called from a console on a
deployed build.

tool/drift_storage_probe.js reproduces the same decision in plain JavaScript —
the same checks drift makes, in the same worker scopes — so it can be pasted
into DevTools on any origin. storage_probe_smoke_test.dart runs it in Chrome so
the snippet is known to work rather than assumed to; on a non-isolated page it
reports sharedIndexedDb, and Chrome does not reach opfsShared, which matches
drift's own note about crbug/1088481.

This matters because production deploys to two origins. Firebase Hosting takes
response headers; the Arweave deployment via ar-io-deploy does not, and
opfsLocks needs cross-origin isolation. The IndexedDB tiers hold the whole
database in RAM — IndexedDbFileSystem wraps an InMemoryFileSystem — so on an
origin that cannot reach OPFS, D12 gets no bounded-memory benefit at all.

Merges PE-9205-drive-state-impl and swaps only the payload. Its uploader,
discovery, sync composition, observability, UI and config flags are reused
unchanged — they deal in bytes and tags, so the container was never their
business, and rewriting them would have thrown away work two reviews had
already hardened.

The producer now builds a SQLite database with ATTACH + INSERT ... SELECT
instead of jsonEncode. Two lines in the creation service, plus a platform
sink: ATTACH needs a path, and native and web disagree about what a path is.

Web is not supported yet and says so rather than failing halfway. The web
database is drift's sql.js backend, whose SqlJsDatabase.export() returns
`main` — there is no way to read an attached database's bytes back out, and
drift surfaces no filesystem. The sqlite3 WASM path does have one, which is
what makes both directions work in #2196, and reaching it means moving off
drift/web.dart. Native and the CLI work today.

Known state: the read side still parses JSON, so this half does not yet
round-trip. Four of the creation-service tests fail with FormatException
because they utf8.decode the payload to assert its shape — they assert the
container, and are rewritten with the importer.
