Summary

Closes swamp-club#254. Post-merge follow-up to PR #1310 (W2 — lifecycle services).

Adds integration/lifecycle_concurrent_stress_test.ts that mirrors the swamp-club#234 race-regression pattern at integration/data_delete_test.ts. 50 iterations × 4 concurrent CLI subprocesses (extension pull @stress/alpha, pull @stress/beta, rm @stress/alpha, update) verify the W2 services' per-extension-atomicity claim under cross-process contention.

Five invariants per iteration:

  • (i) Catalog ↔ lockfile bijection: every Indexed _extension_catalog.db row for @stress/* matches a lockfile entry by name+version, and vice versa.
  • (ii) No DuplicateTypeError leakage across distinct fixture types (@stress/alpha-model vs @stress/beta-model). Fixtures deliberately declare distinct type ids — sharing them would surface a real cross-extension collision on every concurrent install of alpha+beta and the test would mis-categorise it as benign.
  • (ii') No lockfile-retry-budget exhaustion (Could not acquire lock on upstream_extensions.json) or SQLite-busy contention (SQLITE_BUSY, database is locked). These are real failures, not benign race outcomes.
  • (iii) extensions/models/upstream_extensions.json is well-formed JSON after every iteration.
  • (iv) No orphan files under .swamp/pulled-extensions/@stress/... — every file is referenced by some lockfile entry's files[]. Empty leftover directories are tolerated; extension rm only prunes the deepest empty directory, matching integration/extension_rm_test.ts's file-level absence assertion.

The harness ships a co-located Deno.serve fixture registry implementing the four ExtensionApiClient endpoints the install path requires (/{name}, /{name}/latest, /{name}@{version}/download, /checksum) so the test runs offline and deterministically. Inline comments at each fake endpoint reference the corresponding extension_api_client.ts callsite so future API drift fails this test loudly rather than silently shipping bad production code.

design/extension.md "Crash-state recovery" section gains one paragraph pinning this test as the load-bearing concurrency-claim verification, with inline swamp-club#254 and test-path references.

Test Plan

  • deno check clean
  • deno lint clean
  • deno fmt --check clean
  • New stress test runs 3× back-to-back green: 2m58s, 2m57s, 2m57s
  • Full suite (deno run test) green: 5527 passed / 0 failed / 28 ignored (3m15s)
  • deno run compile builds binary
  • Wall-clock cost: 2m57s for 50 iterations × 4 children. data_delete_test.ts is 1m39s for 50 × 2 children — ~1.78× ratio, expected scaling.

Notes for reviewers

  • Both load-bearing constants (RACE_ITERATIONS = 50, CONCURRENCY_PER_ITERATION = 4) are pinned with code-comments referencing swamp-club#254 — please don't shrink them silently.
  • N=50 is mirrored from data_delete_test.ts (where it was calibrated against an evidence-base) but this test verifies the absence of a race in code claimed safe — there's no calibration point. The header comment is honest about this; CI's natural soak across the merge train is the longer-tail coverage.

…ervices (swamp-club#254)

Adds integration/lifecycle_concurrent_stress_test.ts mirroring the
swamp-club#234 race-regression pattern at integration/data_delete_test.ts.
50 iterations × 4 concurrent CLI subprocesses (extension pull alpha,
pull beta, rm alpha, update) verify the W2 services'
per-extension-atomicity claim under cross-process contention. Five
invariants per iteration: catalog↔lockfile bijection (Indexed rows
match lockfile entries by name+version), no DuplicateTypeError leakage
across distinct fixture types (@stress/alpha-model vs
@stress/beta-model), no lockfile-retry-budget exhaustion or SQLite-busy
contention as benign outcomes, lockfile JSON well-formedness, and no
orphan files under .swamp/pulled-extensions/@stress/...

The harness ships a co-located Deno.serve fixture registry implementing
the four ExtensionApiClient endpoints the install path requires
(/{name}, /{name}/latest, /{name}@{version}/download, /checksum) so
the test runs offline and deterministically. Fixture extensions
deliberately declare distinct model type identifiers — sharing them
would surface a real cross-extension DuplicateTypeError on every
concurrent install of alpha+beta and the test would mis-categorise it
as benign.

Documents the test as the load-bearing concurrency-claim verification
in design/extension.md under "Crash-state recovery", with inline
swamp-club#254 and test-path references.

Verified: 3× back-to-back local green (2m58s, 2m57s, 2m57s) and full
test suite green (5527 passed, 0 failed).

…dows CI

Windows CI surfaced invariant (iv) firing spuriously: the lockfile
records `files[]` with native backslash separators on Windows, while
the on-disk walker emitted forward slashes, so set comparison missed
matches. Normalise both sides to forward slashes via a new
`toForwardSlash` helper before comparison, per CLAUDE.md's path-
portability rule. Lockfile-to-FS direction (which uses `join` +
`Deno.stat`) was already separator-agnostic and is unchanged.

Windows CI iteration 36 surfaced the W2 documented "Install partially
applied — files extracted but the catalog write failed (database is
locked)" recovery path under 4-way concurrency. Per
design/extension.md "Crash-state recovery", this is the intended
behavior: SQLite ROLLBACK rolls the catalog back, FS+lockfile are not
auto-rolled-back, and the next pull/update's diff-save reconciles.

Updates to invariants:

- Drop "SQLITE_BUSY" / "database is locked" from REAL_FAILURE_PATTERNS.
  Lockfile-retry exhaustion stays a real failure (the budget exists to
  absorb expected contention; exhausting it means real damage).
- Invariant (i) tolerates the documented "lockfile entry without
  catalog row" transient: when a child this iteration emitted
  "Install partially applied", skip the lockfile→catalog direction
  for the contended @stress/* names. The catalog→lockfile direction
  stays strict — an unmatched catalog row would be a real rollback
  bug.
- After the loop, run a sequential `extension update` reconcile pass
  and assert the bijection invariants strictly with no tolerated
  transients. This pins the eventual-consistency contract.

Updates the header comment to reflect the now-tolerated SQLite
contention path.

Code Review

Well-written cross-process concurrency stress test. The code is thorough, well-documented, and follows project conventions consistently.

Blocking Issues

None.

DDD Assessment

The test correctly exercises the W2 lifecycle domain services (InstallExtensionService / RemoveExtensionService / UpgradeExtensionService) through the CLI subprocess boundary rather than bypassing domain services directly. Invariant verification reads from the infrastructure layer (ExtensionCatalogStore, lockfile, filesystem) — appropriate for a test asserting cross-layer aggregate consistency. No domain logic violations or anti-patterns.

Conventions Verified

  • License header: Present ✓
  • No any types: Uses as unknown as X for two Deno type-bridge casts, no raw any
  • No fire-and-forget promises: All promises awaited ✓
  • @std/path for path ops: Uses dirname, fromFileUrl, join throughout ✓
  • Windows compatibility: toForwardSlash normalizer for path comparisons, .catch(() => {}) on temp dir cleanup ✓
  • Import boundary: No libswamp imports — imports from src/infrastructure/ directly, consistent with all other integration tests ✓
  • Test naming: Descriptive name with issue reference ✓
  • deno fmt/deno lint/deno check: PR states all clean ✓

Suggestions

  1. The two as unknown as BufferSource / as unknown as BodyInit double-casts (lines 220, 346) are slightly inelegant but pragmatic for Deno's type system gaps — not worth changing.

  2. The ~50-line file header comment is long but justified here: the calibration note honestly disclaiming N=50's statistical power, and the architecture note explaining why SQLITE_BUSY is tolerated, are both genuinely valuable for future maintainers of a test this nuanced.

  3. The design doc addition at design/extension.md:1010-1019 sits naturally in the "Crash-state recovery" section and pins the test as the load-bearing verification — good traceability.

Clean PR. The five invariants are well-defined, the fixture registry is minimal but complete, and the Windows/cross-platform handling is thorough.
