validateAddParams() treated '' as falsy and rejected it with "Missing
required field 'data'" — so a legitimate empty file's first write always
failed. Only null/undefined data (with no vector either) is genuinely
absent; '' is real content. Fixed the check, plus the identical bug in
validateUpdateParams() (truncating a file to empty via overwrite hit the
same falsy check) and in update()/transact()'s update planner, where a
plain `Boolean(params.data)`/truthy check on the resolved vector would have
silently skipped both the deferred-embed marker and the eager re-embed for
an emptied value — a stale vector with no path to ever correct itself.
Verified end-to-end: vfs.writeFile('/empty.txt', '') now succeeds,
readFile() returns '', the file lists, and stat() reports size 0; the
existing "should reject empty string as data" tests (unit + integration)
asserted the old buggy behavior and are updated to assert the fixed
contract instead.
Seven micro-budget tests were calibrated on one fast desktop and failed on
other honest iron with zero functional failures (bisect-proven pre-existing;
David-waived for 10.1/10.2 with this recalibration filed as the cure). Every
budget is now at least 3x the worst measurement observed across three
machines, each with a comment naming its calibration basis; the find-unified
micro-comparison of two sub-millisecond timings becomes a ratio assertion
(absolute equality of microsecond pairs can never be stable). The
inference-bound trim-history correctness test gets a timeout covering its
slowest observed run (174s) — its assertions are exact and untouched.
These remain order-of-magnitude guards; real perf enforcement lives in the
dedicated perf lanes with iron-specific budgets, per the gate-speed standard.
Known non-test artifact, documented not hidden: on slow-inference machines a
minutes-long awaited-embed loop can trip vitest's worker-RPC 60s tolerance
('Timeout calling onTaskUpdate') — all tests pass, vitest exits 1 on the
unhandled orchestration error. The CI lanes on faster iron exit clean; if a
lane ever trips it, the test moves to deterministic embeddings (its
assertions are size-bookkeeping, not embedding quality).
Shutdown/close/flush now properly flushes all 4 components in parallel:
metadataIndex, graphIndex, HNSW dirty nodes, and storage counts. Previously
only counts were flushed, causing native provider data loss on restart.
Also:
- Wire roaring, msgpack, entityIdMapper provider consumption from plugins
- Fix allOf filter O(n²) intersection → O(n) Set-based
- Fix ne/exists negation filter to use Set-based exclusion
- Add setMsgpackImplementation() swap in SSTable for native msgpack
- Add setRoaringImplementation() swap for native CRoaring bitmaps
- Add getAllIntIds() to EntityIdMapper for bitmap operations
- Remove TypeAwareHNSWIndex from default index creation path
- Export memory detection utilities from internals
- Clean up 26 permanently-skipped dead tests
- Implement self-configuring validation that adapts to system resources
- Add validation for all CRUD operations (add, update, delete, find, relate)
- Auto-configure limits based on available memory (1GB = 10K limit, 8GB = 80K)
- Monitor and auto-tune performance based on query response times
- Fix multiple type filtering with proper anyOf structure
- Enhance type safety by requiring NounType/VerbType enums
- Fix tests to validate correct behavior (no fake implementations)
- Add comprehensive VALIDATION.md documentation
- Update API_REFERENCE.md with validation rules and examples
- Clarify metadata update behavior (null keeps existing, {} clears)
BREAKING CHANGE: getFieldsForType() now requires NounType enum instead of string
