Part of #2274. This change is test-only: production code doesn't change, so no changeset is needed.

Problem

The timings below were measured on the original revision (c3bdbc8).

packages/db/tests/indexed-db/retirement-oracle.test.ts used vi.waitFor to wait for native IndexedDB admission. The first check runs synchronously, before fake-indexeddb has scheduled the transaction, so it fails. The next check runs after the 50 ms default interval. Measured with a wrapper around vi.waitFor:

Value
waitFor calls 2655
Passed on first check 1422
Retries 1233 (× 50 ms ≈ 62 s)
File test time 64 s (wall), 23 s CPU

The retry count stays the same with interval: 1 (1234 retries, 3.1 s). Each condition becomes true one macrotask after admission, so the time is spent sleeping, not on work. This file was the second-largest wall-time cost in the packages/db suite.

Change

  • idb-driver.ts: observeTransactions(db).until(ready) checks ready again on each native transaction creation, complete, and abort event. It resolves when ready() becomes true. Each schedule cut depends on the provider event that establishes it, following the rubric's "Treat driver timing helpers as premises". An unreachable cut rejects after one second, matching the previous vi.waitFor bound, so withHarness can release its resources. Fulfillment clears the timer; expiry removes the waiter.
  • retirement-oracle.test.ts and retirement.test.ts: replace the six vi.waitFor calls with native.until(...). Upstream feat(oracles): require every oracle test to reach a declared part #2278 moved fixed scenarios into retirement.test.ts; the merge applies their waits at the new location and retains the new when('settled') API. The oracle also adds a caller-settlement observation to the mixed-prefix matrix (see Mutant below).
  • idb-driver.test.ts: five tests cover an already established cut, admission, complete, abort, timeout, expired-waiter removal, timer cleanup, and harness cleanup.

Evidence

  • Law: Closing a connection does not change the native outcome of admitted work. A caller succeeds only after its native transaction commits, and a rejected caller cannot report a commit. Authority: the file's opening contract, and the retirement-oracle owner entry under "IndexedDB connection closure: TLA+ refinement owners" in docs/contributing/oracle-coverage.md. The paired matrix already asserts this as native commit at caller success. This PR applies the same assertion to the mixed matrix, at the same checkpoint (caller settlement).

  • Reach: The histories and grammar are unchanged. All 1,623 existing tests are preserved across the upstream split: 1,592 oracle tests and 31 fixed scenarios. The oracle still runs the same pairCells × four native outcomes and mixedCells. Premises remain explicitly asserted, including pending native work and pending callers before close. These are bounded enumerations, with no important generated property, so no createOracleReach state is introduced.

  • RED: With only the waitFor → until replacement, the mutant below survived 252 mixed cells (active + {settled, accepted, deciding, rejected}, abort: false). The parent killed those cells only because it checked active caller still pending after an accidental 50 ms quiescence. Resuming at admission removed that pause. Final state can't expose the mutant, because the write eventually commits.

  • GREEN: After merging main at 9cfa11fc7, pnpm exec vitest run --coverage.enabled=false tests/indexed-db passes 2,478 tests in 20 files. A separate final run of idb-driver.test.ts, retirement-oracle.test.ts, and retirement.test.ts passes 1,628/1,628. ESLint, Prettier, and pnpm lint:changed with the four changed test/support paths pass. The original revision also passed 1,623/1,623 in 26 runs at 2.3 s test time (5 s wall, 8 s CPU); those performance measurements predate the upstream test split and Vitest upgrade.

  • Mutant: In src/indexed-db-wrapper.ts, the wrapper's completed promise resolves before the native complete event, so callers succeed before commit. Classification: assertion failure.

    Cells killed Killed by parent, survived here
    Original parent (db476b8) 662 —
    Original PR revision (c3bdbc8) 830 0

    After the merge, the same mutant fails 827 oracle tests and 3 moved scenarios, preserving all 830 failing tests. The oracle failures include 672 mixed-prefix cases. The failures are assertions, including native commit at caller success; the temporary production mutation was removed.

  • Waiter RED/GREEN: Before the timeout fix, on merge commit a97b5d02d, pnpm exec vitest run --coverage.enabled=false tests/indexed-db/idb-driver.test.ts -t "rejects an unreachable cut" fails the deadline assertion after 1,000 ms of fake time: the waiter is still pending. It passes with the fix and also checks removal before later native events, cleared timers, and harness/global cleanup. The unbounded parent is the hostile control for this driver defect.

  • Limits: fake-indexeddb 6.2.5 on Node, on one machine (M3 Max); post-merge validation used Node 24.8.0 and Vitest 4.1.12. Browser tests were not run. The browser driver imports idb-driver.ts without using the additive until method. The one-second wait bound is a test-driver deadline, not a product timeout. These finite schedules do not establish every native interleaving.

Merge validation

Merged upstream main without rewriting the published branch. Versioned review and test evidence is recorded in ae3798b6b. Production code is identical to main.

The default pnpm lint:changed exits 1 only for an inherited removed-budget notification: seed 271828 in op-sqlite-driver-oracle.test.ts. Upstream #2278 moved that replay-configuration unit assertion into op-sqlite-driver.test.ts; the literal numRuns: 1 describes a replay option, not a removed generated campaign. This PR does not modify that package or its budgets. All oracle lint rules pass, as does the command restricted to this PR's four changed test/support files.

Note on intermittent timeouts in this file

While measuring, the parent version of this file timed out in 2 of 7 full-file runs. Each time, one cell failed with STACK_TRACE_ERROR after about 29 s. Both runs overlapped macOS sleep (pmset -g log: 31 s clamshell sleep and 29 s idle sleep). I reproduced the failure by sending SIGSTOP to the Vitest processes for 25 s mid-run: the running cell failed with the same signature after 25,147 ms. The cause was the host, not this oracle or production. The parent was more exposed only because it runs 64 s instead of 2 s.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Tests
    • Updated IndexedDB transaction tests to wait for transaction lifecycle events instead of polling. Expanded checks to confirm that operation results align with whether native transactions complete or abort, improving coverage of transaction timing and outcomes.

The retirement oracle waited for native admission with vi.waitFor. The
condition was false on the synchronous first check and true one macrotask
later, so 1233 of 2655 waits slept the full 50ms default interval. That
made 64s of the file's 64s test time (23s CPU).

observeTransactions now exposes until(ready), which resumes at the native
admission or outcome event that makes the cut true. The file runs in 2.3s.

Resuming at admission removed an accidental 50ms quiescence before the
mixed matrix's "active caller still pending" check. A success-before-commit
mutant survived 252 mixed cells under the earlier cut alone. The mixed
matrix now records native status at caller settlement, as the paired
matrix already does, so caller success requires a native commit
regardless of when the test resumes.

Walkthrough

The IndexedDB test driver adds event-based waits for transaction admission and outcomes. Retirement tests use these waits instead of polling. Retirement-oracle tests also check native transaction status when callers settle.

Changes: Transaction synchronization

Layer / File(s) Summary
Add native transaction waiters
packages/db/tests/indexed-db/idb-driver.ts, packages/db/tests/indexed-db/idb-driver.test.ts
observeTransactions notifies waiters when transactions are recorded, complete, or abort. Its until(ready) method resolves when the condition is true and rejects after one second if it remains false. Tests cover immediate resolution, transaction events, timeout, and cleanup.
Synchronize retirement tests
packages/db/tests/indexed-db/retirement.test.ts, packages/db/tests/indexed-db/retirement-oracle.test.ts
Tests replace polling with native.until to wait for transaction admission and completion. The mixed-prefix test records native status at caller settlement and checks it against the caller result.

Full details: Description check

Explanation

The description follows the repository template. It has the Changes section, an Oracle Coverage section with law, reach, RED/GREEN, mutant, and limits evidence, a test checklist item, and a release impact section. It states the change is test-only and needs no changeset. The checklist box for local testing is not checked, but the author reports running pnpm test variants and the test suite results. The Release Impact box is also unchecked, though the author's rationale about no changeset is given in the first line. The description is thorough and mostly complete, so it meets the bar for a pass.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 0.00% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 1 functions across 4 files.

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Bound until so withHarness cleanup runs when the condition never settles.

withHarness runs its disposers, collection cleanup, Channel.drain(), and the global stub restore after await run(harness) in the function body. It registers no hooks for that path. If native.until(ready) never settles, run never settles, so the cleanup statements never execute. A Vitest timeout fails the test, but it does not resume or cancel this suspended function. The Channel stub installed by createHarness stays in place, and the Channel state is not reset.

This PR creates the hang. The previous vi.waitFor check rejected after its own timeout, so run threw, the catch recorded the failure, and cleanup ran. A bounded until that rejects its waiter restores that behavior. The rejection reaches withHarness, which runs cleanup and rethrows the primary error.

Set the bound below the suite's test timeout. The 3000 ms value fits Vitest's default 5000 ms timeout. The timer is cleared on resolve and the waiter is removed on rejection, so no stale waiter remains in the set.

Reject unreachable native cuts after the same one-second bound as the old
vi.waitFor calls. Remove expired waiters and clear fulfilled waiters' timers.
Five driver tests exercise immediate readiness, admission, complete, abort,
and an unreachable cut followed by later events and harness cleanup.

Review evidence for this commit, after merging upstream/main at 9cfa11f:

Law: Closure preserves admitted native outcomes, and caller success requires
native commit. Authority: docs/collections/indexed-db-collection.md, Connection
Lifecycle and Blocked Operations, and the retirement owner in the coverage map.
Driver failure must release resources (oracle rubric ORC-010).

Reach: The unchanged bounded matrices run in 1592 retirement oracle tests;
31 scenarios moved by upstream run in retirement.test.ts. Five new driver
tests cover the waiter's event and deadline boundaries. No generated property
or new product law is introduced, so ORC-015 does not require a reach counter.

RED: On parent a97b5d0, pnpm exec vitest run --coverage.enabled=false
tests/indexed-db/idb-driver.test.ts -t "rejects an unreachable cut" fails at
"native cut rejects at its own deadline": the waiter is still pending after
1000ms of fake time. This is an assertion failure, not a suite timeout.

GREEN: pnpm exec vitest run --coverage.enabled=false tests/indexed-db passes
2478 tests in 20 files. A final run selecting idb-driver.test.ts,
retirement-oracle.test.ts and retirement.test.ts passes all 1628 tests.
ESLint, Prettier, and pnpm lint:changed with those four changed test/support
paths pass.

Mutant: Resolving executeTransaction's completed promise before the native
complete event fails 827 oracle tests (including 672 mixed-prefix tests) and
three moved scenarios. Failures are assertions, including "native commit at
caller success", not setup failures or timeouts. The temporary production
mutation was removed; production is identical to upstream/main.

Limits: fake-indexeddb 6.2.5, Node 24.8.0 and Vitest 4.1.12. No browser run.
These finite schedules do not cover every native interleaving. The default
pnpm lint:changed also reports one inherited removed-budget notification:
seed 271828 in the OP-SQLite replay-configuration unit test. Upstream TanStack#2278
moved that fixed-value assertion into op-sqlite-driver.test.ts; it is not a
removed generated campaign. This branch does not modify that package or its
budgets. All oracle lint rules pass.
