The multi-form usage-template fix (151ed08) and the reviewed
`add index` syntax decision (kept as-is), so the next agent
does not re-flag a settled question.
Sweep: input_verdict tests confirm the schema-existence check
fires across the identifier-taking commands — unknown table
on drop / show / add column, unknown column on drop column /
update — and that known references stay clean. The Step B
check is grammar-generic, so this is verification + coverage
rather than new code.
Docs: requirements.md S6 -> [x], baseline 1096; CLAUDE.md
deferred list reconciled (C5a and S6 are done — removed);
ADR-0026's as-built note updated (step 5 shipped via
ADR-0027); ADR-0027 gains an As-built notes section
recording the post-walk diagnostics realization, the
pre-rendered message, the timeout-based debounce, coarse
WARNING spans, and the deferred highlight/hint wiring.
Adds tests/typing_surface/where_expression.rs — 9 matrix
cells for the complex WHERE / show-data limit typing surface:
operator candidates after an operand, AND / OR after a
predicate, NOT, BETWEEN / IN bounds, and `show data`
where / limit.
Writing the cells surfaced a grammar bug. `predicate_tail`'s
`[NOT] negatable` branch started with `Optional(not)`, and an
Optional-first `Seq` always "commits" — so on an incomplete
input the walker's `Choice` returned that branch's
`Incomplete` early and discarded every sibling branch's
expected set, dropping `is` and the comparison operators from
completion after a column. Fixed by splitting it into
explicit `NOT negatable` and bare `negatable` branches — no
`predicate_tail` branch starts with an `Optional` now. The
matched terminal sequence is unchanged, so `build_expr` is
untouched.
Docs: ADR-0026 gains an "As-built notes" section recording
the option-1 builder realization, its two deviations from the
§3 sketch, and the deferral of §7 diagnostic flagging to
ADR-0027. requirements.md C5a -> [x] (steps 1-4) with the
test baseline refreshed to 1079; CLAUDE.md's deferred list
reconciled (C5a implemented; the QA1/QA2 note now points at
ADR-0028).
`create table … with pk` parsed column types as `name:type`,
while `add column` uses `name(type)`. Unify on the parens
form so column-type syntax is consistent across the DSL:
create table T with pk id(serial), name(text)
Only `COL_SPEC` changes (`:` → `( … )`); `build_create_table`
reads columns by role, so it is unaffected. The `:` that
separates table from column in `add column` / `drop column`
is unchanged. Sweeps the test suite, the typing-surface
matrix (two `after_colon` cells renamed to `after_paren`,
4 snapshots regenerated), the friendly catalog's usage
templates, ADR-0009's example, and requirements.md.
1039 passing / 0 failing / 1 ignored; clippy clean.
The QA1/QA2 design: an `explain` prefix command over
`show data` / `update` / `delete` that runs
EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN (without executing the statement) and
renders the result as an annotated tree. Plan steps keep
the engine's own wording; an annotation taxonomy marks
full scans, index use, and the automatic-index "you
should add an index here" case. Introduces a general
styled-output-line mechanism — an OutputLine may carry
per-span styling — realising the per-span theming
ADR-0016 deferred; the plan renderer is its first
consumer. The explained SQL is shown above the tree as
standard, copy-pasteable SQL.
- docs/adr/0028-query-plans.md — the ADR.
- docs/adr/README.md — index entry.
- docs/requirements.md — QA2 [~] -> [ ]; QA1 note
reconciled (designed in ADR-0028).
A debounced `[ERR]` / `[WRN]` marker at the right edge of
the input row, summarising — before submit — whether the
current command would run. Backed by a small
diagnostics-severity model: the walker emits severity-
tagged diagnostics (parse outcome, schema-existence of
table / column names) that the indicator summarises and
the existing highlighting / hint layers detail. Advisory
only — submission is never blocked.
- docs/adr/0027-input-validity-indicator.md — the ADR.
- docs/adr/README.md — index entry.
- docs/requirements.md — new S6 (TUI shell).
The C5a design: a stratified, recursive WHERE-expression
grammar (AND/OR/NOT, comparisons, LIKE, IS NULL, IN,
BETWEEN) for update / delete / show-data filters; show
data gains optional `where` and `limit`. Adds the
`Subgrammar` reference-following grammar node and a
recursive `Expr` AST, built selectively for the
expression fragment.
- docs/adr/0026-complex-where-expressions.md — the ADR.
- docs/adr/README.md — index entry.
- docs/simple-mode-limitations.md — new running list of
simple-mode query boundaries vs. advanced SQL, seeded
from ADR-0026.
- docs/requirements.md — C5a [~] -> [ ] (designed, not
yet implemented); new Documentation section with DOC1.
Implement ADR-0025 — indexes as a DSL DDL feature.
- Grammar: `add index [as <name>] on <T> (<cols>)`, `drop index
<name>` / `drop index on <T> (<cols>)`, plus a `--cascade`
flag on `drop column`.
- db.rs: index operations over the engine's native index
catalog (no metadata table). The rebuild-table primitive now
captures and recreates indexes, so `change column` and the
relationship operations no longer silently drop them.
- `drop column` refuses an indexed column unless `--cascade`,
which drops the covering indexes and reports each.
- Persistence: additive `indexes:` list in `project.yaml`
(version unchanged); round-trips through rebuild/export/import.
- Display: an `Indexes:` section in the structure view and a
nested tables/indexes items panel (S2).
Reconciles requirements.md (C3 index portion, S2 satisfied)
and CLAUDE.md. 1038 tests passing (+31), clippy clean.
ADR-0024 audited as fully implemented. Amend the ADR with a "Phase F
minimal" implementation note (parser.rs retained as the router +
ParseError home) and update the README index line to match.
Reconcile docs/requirements.md against handoffs 10-14: refresh the
test baseline (449 -> 1006), mark U4 (replay) satisfied, correct the
A1 / H1a / H3 progress notes.
Amend handoff-14: §3 flagged items both resolved (ranker kept,
CommandNode.hint_mode removed); §4 rewritten as a concrete next-work
pointer at the reconciled requirements.md.
Concrete specification for the direction in ADR-0023, landed
during the round-6 design pass. Resolves all four rounds of
open design questions: walker as single source of truth,
scannerless terminal vocabulary (~8 building blocks), typed
value slots with content validators, WalkContext for schema-
aware narrowing from day one, WalkOutcome multi-purpose
return, HintMode per-node, ranker as separate layer, static
+ dynamic sub-grammars, aliases as Word annotations,
IdentSource taxonomy, six-phase per-command migration with
chumsky and walker side-by-side during the transition.
Key shifts from ADR-0023's sketch:
- Lexer dissolves entirely. Walker operates on bytes directly.
dsl/lexer.rs, dsl/keyword.rs go away in Phase F.
- Schema-aware parse from day one (not phased). Typed value
slots reject mis-shaped input at parse time with localised
wording. Completion narrows per column type.
- Sub-grammars: static (fn() -> Node) for composition;
dynamic (fn(&WalkContext) -> Node) for schema-dependent
expansion. No global named registry.
- Path-bearing commands: BarePath becomes a routine
non-whitespace terminal. Paths with spaces require quoting
via StringLit (UX simplification, aligns with standard CLI
convention).
- 13-node taxonomy: Word, Punct, Ident, NumberLit, StringLit,
BlobLit, Flag, BarePath, Choice, Seq, Optional, Repeated,
DynamicSubgrammar.
Migration plan: Phase A (walker scaffolding + app-lifecycle
commands), Phase B (DDL without value literals), Phase C
(create table), Phase D (data commands with full schema
awareness -- the design's central claim landing), Phase E
(replay), Phase F (delete chumsky + lexer + legacy parser
modules, simplify catalog). Estimated ~4 sessions total.
Also: rename ADR-0023 from 0023-proposed-unified-grammar-tree.md
to 0023-unified-grammar-tree.md (git mv preserves history)
and update its status to reflect the direction-accepted-but-
superseded-for-execution-detail relationship with ADR-0024.
Index updated.
Captures the architectural critique surfaced during round-5
manual testing — that adding a keyword or command currently
requires edits in 7-10 files across parser, completion, usage
registry, catalog, and tests — and the proposed direction: a
single declarative trie registry that drives parse, completion,
highlight, and usage rendering from one source.
Status: Proposed. Not yet accepted. Filename carries the
`-proposed-` segment so status is visible at directory-listing
time; rename to `0023-unified-grammar-tree.md` on acceptance.
Estimated cost: ~4 sessions, per-command migration. Why not
now: feature backlog and bearable scatter cost. Right moment
to execute when backlog quiets or scatter cost becomes
visibly painful.
Replaces the originally-planned separate ADRs for syntax
highlighting (I4) and tab completion (I3) with a single
unified design. The framing: colour, hint panel, and Tab
are three answers to the same question — what does the user
need to know mid-typing? — and planning them separately
produces three loose pieces that drift apart.
Three mid-typing states (valid-so-far / definite-error /
incomplete-but-plausible) drive four layered channels:
token-class colour and parse-error overlay (silent, always
on), hint panel ambient and Tab-triggered completion mode
(verbose, in the existing hint panel — no floating popups).
Schema-aware from day one via an IdentSlot taxonomy in the
parser (NewName / TableName / ColumnIn(TableRef::Earlier(N))
/ RelationshipName); every existing ident() call gets
audited and tagged. Completion candidates come from chumsky's
expected-token-set for keyword slots and from a new worker
request (ListNamesFor) for identifier slots.
Implementation lands in 8 green-after-each commits: theme
colours; input panel highlighting; echo line highlighting;
render-time parse + error overlay; hint panel ambient;
identifier-slot taxonomy + parser audit; schema query
plumbing; completion mode + key bindings. Estimated
1500-2500 lines across the eight stages.
Out of scope (deliberately): inline ghost text (could return
as a "most-likely" affordance later — fish-shell style),
fuzzy matching, punctuation completion, user-customisable
keybindings, SQL highlighting in advanced mode (waits on Q4).
ADR-0020 amends ADR-0001 with a two-phase parse: a lexer
producing a span-tagged token stream, then chumsky over
&[Token]. Single source of truth for keywords and punct via
a define_keywords!/define_punct! macro pattern. Parser
contract committed for I3 (queryable expected-token-set)
and I4 (lexer always succeeds, Error tokens for invalid
input). Includes an honest history note: the no-lexer shape
in dsl/parser.rs arose incrementally without ADR-level
deliberation against the known H1a/I3/I4 requirements; this
ADR corrects that.
ADR-0021 builds on ADR-0020 to close the H1a gap: a
per-command UsageEntry registry keyed off entry-keyword,
with parse errors rendered as caret + structural error +
matching usage template(s). Multi-entry families (add,
drop, show) render together. New catalog sections under
parse.usage.* (per-command grammar) and parse.token.*
(single-token vocabulary). Zero-prefix case ("frobulate
Customers") falls back to an "available commands:" framing.
Anchor-phrase compliance preserved.
Documents this session's work and the recommended next move:
## Session totals
- 11 commits since handoff-5
- 534 → 610 tests passing (+76)
- Release binary 7.2 → 7.8 MB
## What landed
- All four non-CI items from handoff-5's Independent Work
list: B2 (int→bool tests), B1 (help update), A2 (engine-
vocabulary audit), A3 (replay command)
- ADR-0019 fully implemented end-to-end:
- Friendly-error layer + i18n catalog (~170 entries
across 16 categories)
- §6 runtime row-pinpoint enrichment with
schema-resolved facts
- §9 migration sweep — every user-visible literal in
src/ now flows through the catalog (caught a ui.rs
gap during the post-sweep manual sanity check, folded
it in as sweep 3/3)
## Recommended next move
Parser-as-source-of-truth ADR + H1a implementation. The
friendly-error layer made engine errors much better;
parse-error wording is now the visibly-weakest user
surface. User explicitly surfaced the gap during manual
testing this session ("typing `create` should illustrate
the expectation"). Bounded scope, high pedagogical value,
unblocks I3/I4 in passing.
A1 (CI workflow) noted as the easy alternative for a
quick win first.
## Sharp edges captured
- New i18n workflow: catalog + keys.rs + t!() at every
use site, validator catches drift
- TranslateContext is owned (no lifetime); App combines
runtime FailureContext with verbosity
- Anchor phrases load-bearing per ADR-0019 §10
- `running: ` prefix coupled to caret-padding math
- main.rs initialises catalog before args parsing
- Several alignment-coupled strings deliberately left out
of the catalog (echo prefix tags, mode labels)
Per follow-up review: §8.5's framing read as "we'll do this
properly later". Reword to make it explicit that real
plural-form rules per locale (Fluent / ICU) are NOT a goal of
this project. Translators handle pluralisation in their
wording (`(s)` shorthand or rephrased templates) — sufficient
for a teaching tool's output surface, and we're not planning
to revisit it.
Matching Out-of-Scope entry tightened the same way.
Settles the design we discussed across this session's
follow-up to the engine-vocabulary audit:
- A central `friendly` module owns translation; the existing
ad-hoc helpers (`friendly_change_column_engine_error`,
`enrich_fk_message`) absorb into it.
- Initial catalog covers UNIQUE / FK / NOT NULL / CHECK /
type-mismatch errors with operation-tailored,
pedagogically-voiced wording in verbose and short variants.
- New `messages (short|verbose)` app-level command lets
advanced learners shrink the output. In-session state for
now; persisted later when settings persistence lands.
- Row pinpointing via post-failure re-query, rendered through
ADR-0017 §7's bordered diagnostic-table renderer.
`FriendlyError` is a structured payload (headline + hint +
optional table); `output_render` composes it.
- i18n foundation: hierarchical YAML catalog, embedded via
`include_str!`, fixed locale (en-US) for now, no external
files. `{name}` plain substitution; format specifiers
explicitly rejected so a translator cannot reformat values.
Value formats stay invariant across all locales (ISO 8601
dates, `.` decimals, `true`/`false`, `NULL`) — explicitly
not a translatable concern.
- Migration sweep is required follow-on but separable: a
`t!()` macro marks call sites and lets per-category PRs
land incrementally. Anchor-phrase list (§10) limits test
churn for the most common substring assertions.
Out of scope and explicitly deferred: advanced-mode SQL
error sanitisation (waits on Q1), settings persistence for
the messages command, plural-form rules per locale, runtime
locale selection, locale-aware value formatting (rejected,
not deferred), constraint-management surface (C3 territory).
README index updated.
Generalises serial and shortid beyond their previous restricted
forms:
- `serial` is no longer restricted to single-column PK. Non-PK
serial columns get an emitted UNIQUE constraint and use
application-side MAX(col)+1 at INSERT time (rowid alias still
drives the PK case for free; per ADR-0010 worker-thread
serialisation, the read-then-insert sequence is safe).
- `shortid` columns auto-fill existing null cells when the
column is materialised — `add column T: x (shortid)` on a
non-empty table no longer leaves rows in a not-really-valid
NULL state.
- `int -> serial` joins the type-change matrix as always-clean
identity (closes the asymmetry vs `text -> shortid`); other
sources are refused with a route-via-int hint.
- `change column T: x (serial|shortid)` fills null source
cells with sequence / generated values in the same rebuild
transaction.
Internal infrastructure:
- ReadColumn gains `unique: bool`; read_schema detects single-
column UNIQUE indexes via pragma_index_list /
pragma_index_info; schema_to_ddl emits inline UNIQUE for
non-PK columns.
- ColumnSchema (persistence) gains `unique: bool` so the flag
survives YAML round-trip and rebuild-from-text reconstructs
it faithfully — preserves the "serial -> int leaves UNIQUE
in place" promise across save/load cycles.
- ChangeColumnTypeResult.client_side now carries `auto_filled`
+ `auto_fill_kind` alongside `transformed` + `lossy`; the
app handler renders separate note lines when both apply.
- AddColumnResult is a new return type carrying pre-rendered
[client-side] note lines for the auto-fill paths.
Tests: 519 -> 534 (+15). Clippy clean.
Replaces the placeholder "trust STRICT" body of do_change_column_type
with the per-cell transformer matrix from ADR-0017. Adds:
- src/type_change.rs: CellOutcome { Clean / Lossy / Incompatible }
+ transform_cell + static_refusal covering every matrix pair
from §3 (54 unit tests).
- --force-conversion and --dont-convert flags on `change column`
(mutually exclusive at parse time per §5).
- Refined PK rule (§4.1): refused only when the column has an
inbound FK and fk_target_type would change. Outbound-FK columns
still refused outright (§4.2). PK / shortid uniqueness checked
post-transformation (§4.3).
- Bordered diagnostic tables (lossy / incompatible / collision)
via the pretty-table renderer (§7) — uses ADR-0016's primitives.
- [client-side] success note (§6) when any cell was rewritten.
- Friendly wrapper for engine-level errors under --dont-convert
so no engine vocabulary leaks (ADR-0002 user-facing posture).
ADR-0017 §3 + §7 amended in place (with user sign-off): serial->int
added explicitly to the always-clean matrix, and diagnostic rows
identify themselves by PK value(s) rather than positional indices
(SQLite returns rows unordered without ORDER BY, so positional
"row 5" is unaddressable).
Tests: 449 -> 517 (+68). Clippy clean with nursery lints.
Specifies the curated per-cell classification (clean /
lossy / incompatible) for column type changes, the static
transformer matrix (numeric chains, text↔structured types,
always-clean stringifications), and the PK / shortid /
uniqueness-bearing handling. Replaces the B2/C2
placeholder of "rely on engine STRICT and surface its
errors" with a learner-friendly model that:
* refuses incompatibles up-front,
* refuses lossy conversions by default with a re-run-with-
--force-conversion hint,
* refines the PK refusal: an inbound-FK PK is only refused
when the new type would change the FK target type
(so `serial → int` and `shortid → text` on FK-referenced
PKs are allowed; `int → text` etc. still refuse),
* adds a post-transformation uniqueness check for PK and
shortid columns,
* uses the pretty-table renderer (ADR-0016) for all
diagnostic row lists,
* emits a `[client-side] …` note in the success summary
whenever the transformer rewrote any cell.
`--force-conversion` accepts loss; `--dont-convert` skips
the client-side layer entirely; mutually exclusive.
Forward-look: a future iteration may add resolution flags
(`--default 0`, `--on-incompatible '<value>'`).
Also amends ADR-0002 with a new "User-facing posture"
section cementing that the database engine choice is an
implementation detail and is never named in user-visible
strings. Adds a corresponding bullet to CLAUDE.md's
working-style rules so every session picks it up.
Implementation lands as a follow-up.
Closes B2 (rebuild-table reused outside relationships) and
C2 (full add/drop/rename/change-type column operations).
* drop column [from] [table] <T>: <col>
- ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN (SQLite 3.35+) + metadata
cleanup in __rdbms_playground_columns.
- Refuses PK columns and columns involved in a declared
relationship (drop the relationship first).
* rename column [in] [table] <T>: <old> to <new>
- ALTER TABLE RENAME COLUMN (SQLite 3.25+); SQLite
cascades the rename through FK declarations on other
tables.
- Mirrors the new name into both metadata tables
(__rdbms_playground_columns, __rdbms_playground_relationships)
so describes stay accurate after a rename.
- Refuses identity rename and name collisions.
* change column [in] [table] <T>: <col> (<newtype>)
- Routes through the rebuild_table primitive (ADR-0013)
since SQLite ALTER doesn't support type changes.
INSERT INTO new SELECT FROM old; STRICT typing enforces
cell compatibility, transaction rolls back on mismatch.
- Refuses PK columns, relationship-involved columns,
`serial` target, and no-op same-type changes.
Adds 20 tests (parser + db layer); updates the in-app help
listing. Both prepositions independently optional in each
new command, matching `add column`'s grammar shape.
Total: 449 passing, 0 failing, 0 skipped (up from 429).
Clippy clean.
Known spec gap: column-type-change conversion compatibility
is not yet documented (currently relies on SQLite STRICT
errors); follow-up will close this.
Replaces the placeholder pipe-and-dash output with Unicode
box-drawing tables for both data results and table-structure
listings, per ADR-0016.
* New `src/output_render.rs` module with `render_data_table`
and `render_structure`. Hand-rolled to match the project's
existing CSV/YAML pattern; ~300 lines.
* Header-only outer-frame border style: outer ┌─┐│└─┘ box +
├─┤ header underline, no per-row separators. NULL renders
as `(null)`; cell newlines/tabs/control chars become
`↵`/`→`/`·` as display-only substitutions.
* Type-aware column alignment: numeric types right-aligned,
everything else left. `DataResult` gains a `column_types:
Vec<Option<Type>>` field, populated from the existing
metadata lookup at the two query sites in db.rs (no new
query paths).
* Structure view shows Name | Type | Constraints columns;
References / Referenced-by sections retain plain-text
format, leaving room for the future relationship-rendering
ADR.
* 18 new unit tests in output_render.rs (plus 4 insta
snapshots for the canonical layouts). Existing assertions
in app.rs and walking_skeleton.rs updated to match the new
format.
Total: 426 passing, 0 failing, 0 skipped (up from 408).
Clippy clean.
Closes out track 2's ADR-0015 backlog.
* `--resume` CLI flag (L1a, ADR-0015 §7) opens the most-
recently-used project, tracked in <data-root>/last_project.
Mutually exclusive with a positional <project-path>; errors
cleanly to stderr (above the shell prompt) on missing file
or stale recorded path. last_project is rewritten on every
successful project open (startup, load, new, save as,
import).
* Persistent input history (I2-persist, ADR-0015 §12). On
project open, the in-memory navigable history is hydrated
from the tail of history.log (capped at the in-memory cap).
ProjectSwitched gains a `history_entries` payload field;
App::seed_history is the entry point. Pipes inside source
text round-trip via splitn(3); unknown escape sequences are
passed through literally.
* Migration framework scaffold (F3, ADR-0015 §9). New
persistence::migrations module with MigratorRegistry +
migrate_to_latest + ensure_project_yaml_migrated. Empty
in v1 (production registry has no migrators); the loader
runs through it on every project open and is exercised by
tests with a fake v1→v2 migrator. Writes
project.yaml.v<N>.bak before any migrator runs; verifies
each step bumps the version field.
Refreshes docs/requirements.md (A1 / I2 / F3 / E1 / L1a /
test baseline) and adds docs/handoff/20260508-handoff-3.md
covering both Iter 5 and Iter 6.
Total tests: 408 passing, 0 failing, 0 skipped (up from 345
at handoff-2). Clippy clean.
Implements the `export` and `import` app-level commands per
ADR-0015 §11 + ADR-0007 amendment 1.
- `export [<path>]` writes a zip of project.yaml + data/ to
<data-root>/YYYYMMDD-<projectname>-export-NN.zip by default,
preserving the project's directory name as the single
top-level folder inside the archive.
- `import <zip> [as <target>]` extracts an exported zip into
a new named project and switches to it. Target name is
derived from the zip's top-level folder by default; on
collision the destination auto-suffixes -02, -03, ... up
to -99 instead of refusing (deviates from §2's refuse-on-
collision rule for save/save as; recorded as an amendment
to ADR-0015 §11).
- Excludes playground.db and history.log from the zip.
- Path-traversal protection via zip::enclosed_name + post-
resolution check that the extraction path stays inside
the target directory.
Adds the zip = "5" dep with default-features = false +
features = ["deflate"] to keep the binary-size cost modest.
Test baseline: 370 passing, 0 failing, 0 skipped.
Adds docs/handoff/20260508-handoff-2.md describing the state at
the end of this session: ADR-0015 designed, Iterations 1-4 of
track 2 shipped (file-backed projects with auto-named [temp]
dirs, per-command write-through, rebuild from text on missing
.db, save/save as/new/load/rebuild commands with modal dialogs
and project switching), plus the cleanup pass (--help, in-app
help, post-rebuild message, unmodified-temp cleanup) and the
safety hardening of safely_delete_temp_project. Lists the
next-up moves (Iteration 5: export/import, Iteration 6:
--resume + persistent input history + migration scaffold) and
an end-to-end smoke test.
requirements.md: marks P1-P5, P-NAME-1/2/3, F1, F2, U3, L1 as
[x] with iteration references; adds P-CLEAN-1 for the safe
cleanup; updates A1, I2, H3, L1a progress notes.
CLAUDE.md: updates the project-storage decisions and
deferred-items entry to reflect what's now live vs. still
pending.
Designs track-2 lifecycle and persistence end-to-end: per-command
write-through to db+yaml+csv+history.log gated by the combined db
persistence logic with commit-db-last ordering; existence-only load
with explicit rebuild command; --resume CLI flag backed by
<data-root>/last_project; in-TUI list-with-browse picker; lock file
for single-instance enforcement; fatal-banner-then-quit failure
model (with --resume making restart cheap); fatal CSV row-load
errors with full diagnosis; YYYYMMDD-word-word-word temp naming
with display-name prettifier; collision-checked names for both
temp and user-supplied projects. Project name lives only on the
filesystem (not duplicated in YAML). ADR-0004 and ADR-0007 amended
in place. requirements.md and CLAUDE.md updated; OOS-6 (global
rolling history) tracked as deferred.
- New docs/handoff/20260507-handoff-1.md captures session
state, what's implemented, what's pending (ranked
recommendations for next moves), sharp edges, and a
smoke-test sequence.
- CLAUDE.md updated to reflect current reality: ADRs 0008-
0014 added to the decisions-at-a-glance list, the
"repository layout (planned)" placeholder replaced with
the actual layout, key invariants spelled out, deferred
list rebuilt from current requirements.md.
DSL data operations (ADR-0014):
- insert into T [(cols)] values (vals); short form
insert into T (vals) omits values keyword for friendlier
syntax.
- update T set ... where col=val | --all-rows; delete from T
where col=val | --all-rows; show data T.
- Value AST (Number/Text/Bool/Null) with per-column-type
validation in the executor: int/real/decimal/bool/date/
datetime/shortid each accept a documented literal shape
and produce friendly format errors naming the column.
- INSERT short form fills non-auto-generated columns in
schema order; auto-fills serial via SQLite and shortid
via the new generator (T2).
- `add column [to table] T: c (type)` -- `to table` now
optional.
Database:
- insert/update/delete via prepared statements with bound
rusqlite::types::Value parameters.
- InsertResult/UpdateResult/DeleteResult: writes return
rows_affected plus the affected row(s) only (not the whole
table), so users see exactly what changed.
- INSERT shows the just-inserted row via last_insert_rowid.
- UPDATE captures matching rowids up-front and fetches them
post-update -- works even if the UPDATE changed the WHERE
column.
- DELETE reports per-relationship cascade effects by row-
count diffing inbound child tables; UPDATE-side cascades
are not yet detected (would need value diffing).
- query_data formats cells (booleans true/false, NULLs as
None).
FK error enrichment:
- Now lists both outbound (INSERT/UPDATE relevance) and
inbound (DELETE/UPDATE on parent relevance) FKs from the
metadata, so RESTRICT errors point at the children
blocking the delete.
- RelationshipSelector has a proper Display impl -- "no
such relationship" reads cleanly.
Relationship display:
- target_table for AddRelationship/DropRelationship now
returns the parent (1-side); structure rendering after
add/drop shows that side's "Referenced by:" entry,
matching the `from <Parent>` direction of the command.
- [ok] summary uses display_subject so relationship
commands show both endpoints (`from P.col to C.col`)
rather than a single misleading table name.
- Auto-name format `<Parent>_<pcol>_to_<Child>_<ccol>`
(matches the from..to direction).
Output rendering and scrolling:
- Wrap-aware scroll: renderer reports both visible-row
count and total wrapped-row count to App; scroll math
caps against actual displayable rows. Long lines wrap;
the bottom line is always reachable; PageUp/PageDown work
correctly even after paging past the buffer top.
- Multi-line messages (FK error enrichment, cascade summary)
split into single-line OutputLines at creation time so
wrap/scroll math agree.
Runtime / events:
- New AppEvent variants for Insert/Update/Delete success
carrying typed result structs; DslDataSucceeded reserved
for show-data queries.
Docs:
- ADR-0014 covers data-op grammar, value model, --all-rows
safety, auto-show.
- requirements.md: C5 done, T2 done, V2 partial (basic data
view), V5 partial (show data added). New entries: C5a
complex WHERE expressions; H1 progress note for FK
enrichment; H1a (strong syntax-help in parse errors).
Tests: 200 passing (183 lib + 17 integration), 0 skipped.
Includes parser, type-validation, DB write/read, FK-failure
enrichment, cascade-delete propagation, focused-auto-show
behaviour, scroll-cap invariants. Clippy clean with nursery
enabled.
DSL:
- add 1:n relationship [as <name>] from <P>.<col> to <C>.<col>
[on delete <action>] [on update <action>] [--create-fk]
- drop relationship <name> | from <P>.<col> to <C>.<col>
- show table <name> for re-displaying a structure on demand
Database (ADR-0013):
- Rebuild-table primitive following SQLite's
ALTER-via-rebuild recipe (foreign_keys=OFF outside tx,
copy-by-name, foreign_key_check before commit). Reusable for
B2 (column drops/renames/type changes).
- ReferentialAction enum (no action / restrict / set null /
cascade); SET DEFAULT awaits column DEFAULTs.
- __rdbms_playground_relationships metadata table -- names,
auto-generated as <Parent>_<pcol>_to_<Child>_<ccol>.
- Type::fk_target_type() validation at declaration; friendly
errors for type mismatch, non-PK target, missing column,
duplicate name.
- describe_table populates symmetric outbound + inbound
relationship lists. drop_table refuses while inbound
references exist; outbound metadata cleaned up alongside drop.
App / UI:
- In-line cursor editing in the input field: Left, Right,
Home, End, Delete, Backspace honoring UTF-8 boundaries.
- PageUp / PageDown scrolls the output buffer; viewport row
count fed back from the renderer via App::note_output_viewport
so scroll is capped against the actual visible area
(regression-tested) and snaps to the bottom on new output.
- Failure messages quote the command portion ("verb target"
failed: ...) for visual clarity; RelationshipSelector has a
proper Display impl so "no such relationship" reads cleanly.
- Structure rendering shows References / Referenced by sections.
Docs:
- ADR-0013 covers naming, metadata table, symmetric view, and
the rebuild-table strategy.
- requirements.md updates: C3 (FK done), B2 (primitive in),
T3 (compound-PK FK still pending). New entries: I1a (cursor
editing -- landed), I1b (Ctrl-A/E and readline shortcuts --
pending), V4 partial scroll, V5 (show family), C3a (modify
relationship -- deferred).
Tests: 154 passing (140 lib + 14 integration), 0 skipped.
Clippy clean with nursery enabled.
Captures up-front design decisions for RDBMS Playground:
stack (Rust + Ratatui + SQLite), input modes, project file
format, type vocabulary, undo snapshots and replay log,
sharing/export, and testing approach. ADR-0000 establishes
the ADR practice itself and mandates index upkeep alongside
any ADR change.
