fix(trust): close all twelve remaining audit findings — no money write from a stale read - #305
Conversation
…tale read Four defects in permits.py, all the same shape: a spent_credits value read in one statement and written back in a later one, serialized only by SELECT ... FOR UPDATE. That lock is a silent no-op on SQLite, and nothing in this repo forbids SQLite in production -- config.py lists it and trust_mode.py has no engine guardrail -- so these were live on a supported configuration, not theoretical. reserve_budget gated on status and the cap but not on expiry. A permit past its expires_at is still status="active" until the sweeper runs, which is the steady state for every permit between its deadline and that sweep, so it kept funding work after its authority ended. The expiry is now in the statement's own predicate, matching authorize_and_reserve. reserve_budget also reported every guarded-write failure as permit_budget_exceeded. A revoked or expired permit was therefore described as out of money, which sends an operator to top up a permit that more money cannot revive. It now classifies status, then expiry, then budget. release_dispatch_budget_once decided whether it had already run by reading budget_released_at and then writing it. Two callers both observed NULL, both passed the check, and the reservation was released twice -- the permit ends up under-spent and can then exceed the cap it exists to enforce. The checkpoint is now claimed by a guarded UPDATE before any budget moves, so the database picks the single winner; the trailing ORM write of the same field is gone, since re-issuing it from a row loaded before that UPDATE is the bug in miniature. reconcile_budgets recomputed an absolute total from receipts and wrote it back unconditionally. A reservation landing between the receipt scan and that write was erased. An absolute set has no relative form, so it is now guarded on the value the pass actually observed: if the row moved, the repair is skipped and the permit is re-examined next pass rather than having a live reservation overwritten. The module comment claimed "Every spent_credits mutation is applied as a single guarded UPDATE rather than a read-modify-write." That was false -- reconcile_budgets did a plain ORM assignment. Rather than weaken the claim, the code now makes it true, and the comment states both forms the guard takes and the rule they encode. Each fix ships a regression test confirmed to fail against the unfixed source by reverting the service, not the test: - expired permit: DID NOT RAISE at all - revoked permit: reported permit_budget_exceeded, not permit_revoked - double release: both callers returned True - reconciler: clobbered a concurrent reservation of 9 back to 0 The interleaves are forced deterministically through an instrumented session rather than raced, so they cannot pass by scheduling luck. Validation: 1777 passed / 32 skipped (app + b2a_sdk); ruff and mypy 2.3.1 clean; doc references 272/242; PostgreSQL 16 -- permit concurrency 11 passed, two-process crash recovery 13 passed; trust release gate passed.

Same shape as the permit fixes in the previous commit, now in the paths that
hold actual credits. Each read a balance or counter in one statement and
wrote it back in a later one, serialized only by SELECT ... FOR UPDATE --
which is a silent no-op on SQLite, a configuration this repo permits in
production.
charge() checked wallet.balance and then, several statements later, wrote
back balance - amount computed from that read. A charge committing in the
gap is overwritten: the ledger records the debit but the balance never
reflects it, so the request was served for free and the books stop
balancing. The debit is now a single guarded UPDATE repeating
balance >= amount as its own predicate; losing that predicate is reported
exactly as failing the up-front check, because in both cases nothing moved.
reclaim_child_wallet read the child's balance, zeroed the child, and
credited the parent by the amount it had read. Two concurrent reclaims each
credited the parent in full, so the parent gained twice what the child ever
held -- credits created from nothing. The child's balance is now claimed by
a guarded UPDATE before any of it reaches the parent, and the parent is
credited relatively.
Refund credits (refund_charge and the operator repair in
refund_reconciliation) wrote absolute totals, so one of two concurrent
refunds was lost outright. That is the customer's money, not a metric.
The velocity counters accumulated by read-modify-write. Under-counting there
is not a skewed statistic: hourly_spent and daily_spent are what the spend
cap and the anomaly auto-freeze are measured against, so both controls
silently stopped firing precisely when spend was most concurrent.
The Stripe cumulative-refund clawback wrote a balance derived from an
earlier read. The cumulative arithmetic already made the event idempotent,
but the write itself could still erase a concurrent charge -- against fiat
Stripe has already returned.
refund_reconciliation also mutated permit.spent_credits directly, outside
the module whose header now guarantees every such write is guarded. That
guarantee is only as good as its weakest caller.
app/db/sql_expressions.py holds the shared clamped-decrement expression so
the safe form is defined once instead of re-derived at each call site.
Both regression tests were confirmed to fail against the unfixed source by
reverting the services, not the tests:
- conservation: balance 8.50 while the ledger showed 3.00 debited from 10
-- one charge served free
- reclaim: parent 140 instead of 100, from a child holding 40
The interleaves are forced deterministically through an instrumented
session, firing after a statement returns so the seam is identical across
the fixed and unfixed code, which issue different numbers of statements.
Each test asserts the interleave actually fired before asserting anything
else, so a harness that misses the window fails loudly instead of passing.
Validation: 1779 passed / 32 skipped (app + b2a_sdk); ruff and mypy 2.3.1
clean over 173 files; doc references 277/243; PostgreSQL 16 -- permit
concurrency 11 passed, two-process crash recovery 13 passed; trust release

…hild wallet in SQL Closes the last of the fourteen audit findings, plus one raised by review. reconcile_stuck_records had a hole that is engine-independent -- it bites on PostgreSQL too, unlike the read-modify-write defects fixed in the previous commits. money.charge() commits in its own transaction and mark_charged() runs in a separate one, so a crash between them leaves the wallet debited while the idempotency record still reads ledger_entry_id IS NULL. That record matched neither pass: the effect-free cleanup requires operation_kind == "upstream_mcp", and the charged-but-stuck repair requires a non-NULL ledger_entry_id. So it sat forever, and because nothing counted it, needs_review stayed 0 -- money had moved and no operator was ever told. The debit is recoverable because governed charges carry operation_key = record_id. A third pass now finds these records, adopts the checkpoint the crash lost, and counts them for review so the next pass can resolve them into a real replay. Records with no committed debit are left alone: the effect-free deletion above is deliberately scoped to the one identity whose ordering makes deletion provably safe, and widening it here would be guessing. Review on #305 then caught that the child-wallet lifetime cap had the same shape as the balance: lifetime_debits + charge_amount <= max_spend was checked against an earlier read while the increment landed later, so two concurrent charges both cleared a cap only one of them fits inside. The balance guard did not carry the cap -- they are separate predicates. Both now travel with the debit, and a lost race is classified so a cap breach is still reported as a cap breach rather than as an empty balance. Documentation corrected where it described something the code does not do: - invention-inventory.md listed the debit ledger entry as the fourth member of prepare()'s atomic unit. It is not; prepare() writes no ledger entry, and its own docstring names the idempotency record, permit row, reservation, and attempt identity. The correction matters because the gap between those commits is the very window the reconciler fix closes. - complete_awi_http_governed's docstring said "Charge wallet, reserve permit budget"; the code reserves first. Anyone reasoning about crash compensation from that reading had the required rollback backwards. - PROOF_MATRIX.md said the coverage gate covers 20 test files across 18 modules (actually 24 and 22) and that CI runs "the same six tests" in postgres_permit_concurrency (actually 13 crash-consistency tests then 11 row-lock tests). Both new tests were confirmed to fail against the unfixed source by reverting the services, not the tests: - orphaned local debit: needs_review == 0, exactly the silence described - child cap: 3.00 spent against a cap of 2 Validation: 1781 passed / 32 skipped (app + b2a_sdk); ruff and mypy 2.3.1 clean over 173 files; doc references 281/243; OpenAPI parity matches; PostgreSQL 16 -- permit concurrency 11 passed, two-process crash recovery 13 passed; trust release gate passed.

#304 landed three fixes that overlap this branch: the reserve_budget expiry predicate, the once-only dispatch-budget release, and refusing SQLite as a durable-state backend in production. Resolved as follows, on the merits rather than by branch preference: release_dispatch_budget_once -- took main's version wholesale. It keeps the state pre-check that yields the precise dispatch_budget_release_state_invalid error and adds the guarded claim as the authoritative gate. That is correct and preserves error semantics; my variant folded state into the predicate, which is not clearly better, so there is no reason to churn landed code. Kept both tests: main's uses real concurrency via asyncio.gather and adds a third-call no-op assertion, mine forces the interleave deterministically so it cannot pass by scheduling luck. They prove the same property by different means and neither subsumes the other. reserve_budget -- kept this branch's classification. main's new site returns "permit_not_active" and compares expires_at bare; the three other sites in the same file (authorize_and_reserve at :515/:525 and :585/:592) return f"permit_{status}" and normalize through to_naive_utc. main's site is the outlier in its own file, and a caller should not get permit_revoked from one reservation path and permit_not_active from the other for the same condition. The bare comparison is also a naive/aware TypeError waiting for a driver that returns tz-aware timestamps. No test pins "permit_not_active", so nothing in main regresses. The reserve comment merges both explanations. Note on the SQLite guard in #304: it refuses sqlite as the *durable-state* backend, which is real and welcome, but it does not close the case this branch's findings actually turn on. STATE_BACKEND=redis with REDIS_URL set satisfies that check, leaving DATABASE_URL free to be SQLite -- and the money and permit paths run on the ORM engine, not on durable state. Neither validate_trust_mode_config nor app/db/database.py refuses a SQLite DATABASE_URL in a production-like environment. Tracked as follow-up. Validation after the merge: 1785 passed / 32 skipped (app + b2a_sdk); ruff and mypy 2.3.1 clean over 173 files; doc references resolve; OpenAPI parity matches.

Inline comments:
In `@app/services/awi_http_governance.py`:
- Around line 240-248: Update the docstring for the permit reservation/charge
flow to remove the claim that every later failure releases the reservation;
explicitly acknowledge the ChargeCreditMismatchError branch in the relevant
method and state that it deliberately retains the reservation after the wallet
debit, consistent with its inline comment.
In `@app/services/billing_engine.py`:
- Around line 401-407: The velocity-counter reversal must use a guarded relative
WalletModel UPDATE with clamped_decrement(...) rather than
reverse_velocity_record()’s Python read-modify-write. Update
reverse_velocity_record and all six call sites, including the lost-race branch,
to be async, await each invocation, scope the update by wallet_id, and refresh
wallet afterward; add a concurrency regression test confirming an unrelated
velocity increment is preserved, without changing
VelocityMonitor._reset_if_needed().
In `@app/services/idempotency.py`:
- Around line 683-696: Update the debit lookup in the idempotency service to
require LedgerEntryModel.action equals LedgerAction.DEBIT.value and
LedgerEntryModel.amount is less than zero, alongside the existing wallet and
operation-key filters. Add the required LedgerAction import from
app.schemas.billing and Decimal import from decimal, using Decimal for the
amount comparison.
- Around line 637-681: Update reconcile_stuck_records so orphan recovery
processes stale records in bounded batches while preserving the existing
non-upstream_mcp operation predicate. Replace per-record ledger lookups with one
set-based lookup for each batch keyed by (wallet_id, operation_key), and retain
correct no-debit handling. Add tests covering the no-debit path and stale
records extending beyond a single batch.
In `@app/services/permits.py`:
- Around line 1194-1224: Update reconcile_budgets to track skipped repairs
separately when the guarded update affects zero rows, and expose that count to
operators even when no repairs succeed. Define and use a module logger via
logging.getLogger(__name__) in permits.py, update app/main.py logging as needed,
and document that skipped permits are retried on the next reconciliation pass.
In `@app/services/stripe_integration.py`:
- Around line 421-426: Update the Stripe clawback bulk UPDATE to import and use
utc_now from ..core.time for the updated_at field, alongside the existing
balance and lifetime_debits changes. Add a regression test confirming updated_at
advances after processing a refund.
In `@tests/test_mcp_dispatch_reconciliation.py`:
- Around line 1042-1044: Update the permit lookup in the test around get_permit
so its result is stored and checked for None before accessing spent_credits;
preserve the existing CREDITS assertion and match the later test’s explicit
missing-permit check.
- Around line 1089-1095: Extend the tests for release_dispatch_budget_once with
direct negative-path cases covering a missing dispatch attempt and an attempt
outside returned_error. Assert that they raise PermitError with
dispatch_attempt_not_found and dispatch_budget_release_state_invalid
respectively, while keeping the existing evidence-linkage coverage unchanged.
In `@tests/test_mcp_trust.py`:
- Around line 1415-1418: Update tests/test_mcp_trust.py lines 1415-1418 to
assert the idempotency record exists and its ledger_entry_id is NULL instead of
skipping; update tests/test_wallet_ledger_integrity.py lines 155-167 to assert
recorded debits are greater than zero before the conservation check. Use the
affected regression test functions as anchors so both tests fail when their
money-moving premises are not exercised.
Apply the same fix in `@tests/test_wallet_ledger_integrity.py` around lines 155 -
167: Covered by the second required forward-progress assertion.
In `@tests/test_permit_budget_integrity.py`:
- Around line 191-200: Update the execute interleave hook in the test so it
identifies the explicit PermitModel repair UPDATE issued by reconcile_budgets,
rather than relying on fired["executes"] == 2. Trigger _concurrent_reservation()
immediately before that UPDATE executes, preserving the existing one-time guard
and allowing unrelated receipt SELECT query changes without moving the race
seam.

…sal atomic Addresses CodeRabbit's review on #305. Each finding was verified against the code before acting; two were regressions of mine and are the important ones. 1. release_dispatch_budget_once lost its terminal-state check. This is a regression I introduced in the 3fca6b3 merge: resolving the conflict in favour of main's implementation dropped the "state != returned_error" pre-check that main's version actually kept, because the guard sat inside the replaced hunk. Without it, budget could be released for a prepared or dispatched attempt that then goes on to spend those credits, leaving the cap enforced against a reservation that no longer exists. Restored, with the budget_released_at fast path. Two negative-path tests added, per AGENTS.md; the non-terminal one fails DID NOT RAISE without the check. 2. reverse_velocity_record() was a read-modify-write, in the same function whose debit this branch had already converted to a guarded UPDATE. It is now one relative statement using clamped_decrement, and all six call sites await it. These counters are what the spend cap and anomaly auto-freeze are measured against, so a lost reversal over-counts spend and throttles a caller who never spent the money. 3. reserve_budget's PermitError escaped as a 500 on the AWI path. The reservation happens before the try block and PermitError is caught nowhere on that route, so an expired or revoked permit answered 500 -- telling an operator the service is broken when the permit did its job. Now mapped to 403 with the permit's own reason, closing the idempotency key first. 4. Two of my own regression tests could pass without exercising the thing they test. The crash-recovery test skipped when the record was absent or already charged, so a broken injection passed silently; it now asserts the premise. The conservation test was satisfiable by two refusals; it now asserts a debit was actually recorded first. This is the same failure mode the "interleave fired" guard was written to catch, one level up. 5. Smaller, all verified: the AWI docstring claimed every failure path releases the reservation, but ChargeCreditMismatchError deliberately retains it ("Wallet was debited: keep permit budget reserved") -- an inaccuracy I introduced while fixing a different one; the orphan-debit adoption now requires action == debit; a test dereferenced get_permit() without a None check. Not taken, with reasons stated on the PR: binding expiry to a server-side CURRENT_TIMESTAMP (dialect-dependent semantics against a naive-UTC column, and it would leave the sibling reservation path inconsistent), batching the orphan pass (bounded by the idle cutoff; an optimization, not a correctness issue), and a skipped-repair counter (observability, better as its own change). The new velocity test passes against the unfixed source as well and says so in its docstring: the only reversal branch this harness can reach refreshes the wallet first, which makes the stale read benign there. It is a forward-looking invariant guard, not a demonstration. Validation: 1788 passed / 32 skipped (app + b2a_sdk); ruff and mypy 2.3.1 clean over 173 files; doc references 279/243.

| Finding | Verdict |
|---|---|
reverse_velocity_record() is a read-modify-write |
Correct, and my miss. Same bug class, in the same function whose debit I'd already converted. Now one relative statement via clamped_decrement, six call sites awaited. |
PermitError → 500 on the AWI path |
Correct. The reservation happens before the try, and PermitError is caught nowhere on that route. Now mapped to 403 with the permit's own reason, closing the key first. |
| Tests can pass without exercising money movement | Correct, and the sharpest note in the review. The crash test skipped on a missing/charged record, so a broken injection passed silently; it now asserts the premise. The conservation test was satisfiable by two refusals; it now asserts a debit landed first. Same failure mode my "interleave fired" guard exists to catch — one level up, where I hadn't applied it. |
| AWI docstring over-claims | Correct. ChargeCreditMismatchError deliberately retains the reservation ("Wallet was debited: keep permit budget reserved"). I introduced that inaccuracy while fixing a different one. |
| Adopted entry should be constrained to a debit | Taken — cheap defence even with the unique operation key. |
get_permit() dereferenced without a None check |
Taken. |
❌ Not taken, with reasons
Server-side CURRENT_TIMESTAMP for expiry. The window you describe is real but is statement latency — sub-millisecond — and closing it this way costs more than it buys. expires_at is a naive-UTC column; SQLite's CURRENT_TIMESTAMP is second-granularity UTC text while PostgreSQL's is timestamptz rendered through the session time zone. Comparing either against a naive column introduces dialect-dependent semantics in the predicate that decides whether authority is still valid. It would also leave authorize_and_reserve — which binds now the same way — inconsistent with its sibling. If this is worth doing it should be done to both paths at once, with the dialect question settled deliberately, not as a rider on this PR.
Batching the orphan pass. The pass is already bounded by created_at < cutoff and only matches records with no response. A real optimization, not a correctness issue, and it widens an already-large PR.
Skipped-repair counter and module logger. Legitimate observability, but it's a separate concern from the integrity fixes here and belongs in its own change.
⚠️ One thing I want to flag rather than let pass
The velocity test I added passes against the unfixed source too, and its docstring says so. The only reversal branch this harness can reliably reach is the lost-race one, and that branch calls session.refresh(wallet) first — which makes the stale read benign there. The five branches that reverse without a refresh are the exposed ones, and reaching them needs a rejection I can't force on the same wallet the concurrent charge must succeed on.
So the reverse_velocity_record change is defensive hardening consistent with the rest of the PR, not a demonstrated defect. I'd rather say that than present a passing test as proof.

The orphaned local governed-call reconciler must still filter with `LedgerEntryModel.amount < 0` because compensation proof requires that money left the wallet. A positive ledger entry must not link `IdempotencyRecordModel.ledger_entry_id`.

…tention into a denial Second round of CodeRabbit review on #305. Both findings verified against the code; one is a bug I introduced in the previous commit. permit_write_contended was being stored as a terminal 403. reserve_budget raises it after retry exhaustion on a transient write conflict, and the handler I added one commit ago caught every PermitError and *completed* the idempotency record with a denial. That turns a momentary database conflict into a permanent stored answer: every retry of that key replays the 403 long after the contention cleared. It is now split -- transient contention abandons the uncharged record (so the key stays usable) and answers 503; only terminal denials complete as 403. Wallet spendability now travels with the guarded debit. The status check read a row loaded at the top of the transaction and the write happened several statements later, so a freeze committing in between was invisible and the debit went through. A freeze is the control that exists to stop spending at that moment, not at the next request. A zero-row result is classified so a freeze is reported as wallet_frozen rather than as an empty balance. Confirmed against the unfixed source by reverting the service, not the test: the frozen wallet is debited, balance_after 98.5, a real ledger entry minted. Not taken, with reasons on the PR: the daily-limit predicate (daily_spent is maintained by the velocity monitor in its own transaction and is already reversed on rejection; folding it into the debit predicate would double-count the interaction between the two and deserves its own change), and the amount < 0 filter on ledger adoption (moot -- that pass is removed here, see below). Also dropped this branch's orphaned-local-debit pass in favour of #306, which implements the same fix better: it runs *before* the stuck pass with an explicit flush, so the record resolves in the same run instead of the next, and it lets the stuck pass classify repaired vs needs_review instead of counting every adoption as review. Its test matrix is also stronger. No reason to carry two implementations of one reconciler pass into a conflict. Validation: 1788 passed / 32 skipped (app + b2a_sdk); ruff and mypy 2.3.1 clean over 173 files; doc references resolve.

#306 lands its own orphaned-local-debit pass in `IdempotencyService.reconcile_stuck_records`, running before the stuck pass with an explicit flush and classifying repaired-vs-review. That is the better implementation of the third pass this branch had carried briefly, so the merge takes it wholesale and this branch keeps none of its own. `tests/test_mcp_trust.py` conflicted only on two trailing blank lines this branch had added; resolved to main's version.
`charge_wallet`'s lost-the-race branch re-reads the wallet and reports the refusal as whichever check would have caught it. For the freeze case it reported `shortfall=charge_amount`, while the ordinary frozen path a few hundred lines above reports `shortfall=0`. A freeze blocks spending regardless of balance, so a caller told it is short by the full charge will top the wallet up and still be refused. Align the race branch with the non-race path -- same `shortfall`, `shortfall_exact`, and message -- and assert all three in the frozen-mid-charge race test, which previously only checked that no debit landed.

Learning: In `app/services/idempotency.py`, `LedgerEntryModel` has the `uq_ledger_wallet_operation_key` uniqueness constraint on `(wallet_id, operation_key)`. The orphaned local governed-call reconciler must still filter with `LedgerEntryModel.amount < 0` because compensation proof requires that money left the wallet. A positive ledger entry must not link `IdempotencyRecordModel.ledger_entry_id`.

Their `ge=0` balance hints do not enforce validation during database persistence. The database migration uses unconstrained `Numeric` columns without balance `CHECK` constraints, so chargeback handling in `app/services/stripe_integration.py` can persist negative `WalletModel.balance` and `LedgerEntryModel.balance_after` values.
…at clawback Two review findings, both verified against the code before acting. `reconcile_budgets` returns a count of *writes*. A permit whose guarded repair matched no row -- a concurrent reservation moved `spent_credits` between the receipt scan and the write -- is correctly left alone, but it was also invisible: a pass that skipped every permit and a pass that found nothing to repair both returned 0, and `app/main.py` logs only a nonzero result. A permit that never stops being skipped, the signature of a hot permit under sustained contention, surfaced nowhere. Count the skips and log them, keeping the return value a count of writes so the eight existing call sites are unaffected. The docstring now states which permits are not counted and that they are re-examined next pass. The Stripe refund clawback was the one balance-moving wallet UPDATE in this branch that did not set `updated_at`. `WalletModel.updated_at` has a default but no `onupdate`, and a Core UPDATE bypasses the ORM attribute write, so the most consequential move the wallet sees -- real fiat returned -- was the one leaving the row looking untouched. Both are covered by tests that fail against the unfixed source. The reconcile test records the service's logger rather than capturing through stdlib logging: tests/test_migrations.py runs Alembic in-process and migrations/env.py calls fileConfig, which disables every logger created before it, so handler- and caplog-based capture depends on test order. Production runs migrations in a separate process (scripts/docker_entrypoint.sh), so the operator log is live there.

…ents Eleven of the twelve findings closed by #305 were live for one reason: `SELECT ... FOR UPDATE` is a silent no-op on SQLite, and nothing in this repository refused SQLite in production. The guarded UPDATEs fixed the paths; this refuses the configuration that made the old ones exploitable. #304 added a SQLite refusal, but it guards `STATE_BACKEND` -- the key/value durable-state store -- and the money and permit paths write through the ORM engine `DATABASE_URL` builds, not through that store. The gap between the two is reachable and not exotic: `STATE_BACKEND=redis` with a `REDIS_URL` satisfies the state check completely while `DATABASE_URL` stays SQLite. `_resolve_backend`'s `auto` branch reaches the same posture without anyone choosing it, since it falls through to redis when `DATABASE_URL` is not a Postgres DSN. `validate_trust_mode_config` -- whose stated job is refusing unsafe deploy postures -- now also refuses: - a SQLite `DATABASE_URL`, file and in-memory spellings alike. The in-memory ones are not a lesser case: they lose the ledger on restart as well as dropping the locks. - an empty `DATABASE_URL`. Wallets, permits, receipts and the ledger are relational; without one `get_engine()` returns `None` and the trust plane has nowhere durable to record what it authorized. Refusing SQLite while permitting *nothing* would not be a coherent guard. `is_sqlite_url` is new and deliberately not `sqlite_path_from_url`: that helper answers "is there a durable file here?" and returns "" for in-memory URLs, which is the opposite of what a safety check needs. The production-posture fixture gains the `DATABASE_URL` a real production deployment has, so it now models a complete posture rather than one that happened to omit the database. Local development is unaffected and a test pins that: SQLite stays accepted outside production-like environments, which is what this suite itself runs on.
#305 converted six wallet and permit paths from read-modify-write to guarded UPDATEs but only landed regression tests for some of them. These are the four that went in on reasoning alone. Each was confirmed to fail against the read-modify-write it replaced, by reverting the service and not the test. - `refund_charge`'s credit: a charge committing between the wallet read and the credit write erases the refund. The duplicate-refund guards inside the method do not cover it -- the two operations are a refund and a charge, not two refunds. - `refund_reconciliation._apply_refund`: same shape, and it is the repair path for a charge whose tool call never delivered, running as a background sweep exactly when other charges are in flight. - the operator refund's permit release: a reservation landing mid-retry was overwritten, leaving the permit under-counting its own spend -- the state that lets it be spent past its cap. - the Stripe fiat clawback: a spend landing mid-clawback was erased, against money Stripe has already returned. The permit-release seam took two attempts and the first one is the cautionary tale. Fired after the second visible statement, the test passed against the *unfixed* service: the permit row is loaded with `session.get`, which bypasses the instrumented `execute` wrapper, so firing too early meant the service re-read the permit *after* the reservation landed and no race occurred. `state["fired"]` was true the whole time -- the guard every test here carries proves the hook ran, not that it ran in the window. The seam now sits on the first visible statement after the load, and the revert check is what caught it. `_exact_amount` reads `LedgerEntry.amount_exact` rather than the float `amount`: balances are Decimal, so comparing against the float is a TypeError, and coercing it would put rounding into exactly the arithmetic these tests exist to check. The two module docstrings claiming nothing forbids SQLite in production are corrected -- the previous commit makes that false. They now say why these tests still run on SQLite anyway: the missing lock is what makes the defect observable, and a boot guard does not reach the local and staging databases people do real work against.
Correcting something I got wrong on #305. I dismissed this finding there on the grounds that `tests/conftest.py` hardcodes a SQLite `DATABASE_URL`, making any other engine unreachable. It does not -- the line is `os.environ.setdefault`, so exporting `DATABASE_URL` before pytest points the whole suite at another engine. The concern was live, not theoretical, and the reason I gave for dismissing it was false. Every test that forces a second writer into an open transaction depends on the row lock being a no-op. Against a real one the second writer waits on a transaction that cannot commit until the second writer returns, so the run hangs -- no failure, no output, just a stalled job. These are skipped rather than adapted because their subject is what happens when nothing serializes the writers, and that is not a state PostgreSQL can be put into. A version that took the lock would be a different test proving a different thing, and its passing would say nothing about the defect these exist to catch. The guard covers `test_wallet_ledger_integrity` (module-wide -- every test there interleaves) and the four individual interleaving tests in `test_permit_budget_integrity`, `test_refund_reconciliation` and `test_stripe_integration`. Verified both ways: 8 passed under the default SQLite URL, 8 skipped with `DATABASE_URL` pointed at PostgreSQL.

… behind (#310) Production-like environments now refuse a SQLite or empty DATABASE_URL at boot — the configuration that made #305's eleven row-lock findings live. Separate control from #304's STATE_BACKEND guard: that one governs the key/value store, this one the ORM engine the money paths write through. Four guarded writes from #305 gained the regression tests they shipped without (refund credit, reconciled refund, operator permit release, Stripe clawback), each proven by reverting the service. Velocity reversal now decrements each counter under the period marker it was recorded against. Six defects fixed, found by negative-path tests and review: - unknown wallet on /v1/billing/charge answered 500; now 404 - non-finite units reached ledger arithmetic; negative units inverted the debit into a credit (100 -> 110, logged as a debit); both refused at the engine - dry-run session endpoints confirmed another tenant's session exists and echoed its owning wallet id; inaccessible and unknown sessions now answer an identical 404 - revert_session reported "No changes made to real wallet" after a concurrent commit had charged it (100 -> 96); end_session now claims via _claim_session so exactly one of end/commit/revert wins - simulate_charge's write-back could resurrect a claimed session (Redis: recreated with all charges, committable twice; memory: KeyError as 500); the write is now conditional - commit/revert answered 200 with success:false when the session was gone; now 404, keyed on the empty wallet_id so an insufficient-funds commit keeps its 200 SDK bumped to 0.5.0 (source) with latest_release_tag distinguishing the published python-sdk-v0.4.0. 1857 passed / 31 skipped on the merged tree; ruff, mypy, doc refs, OpenAPI parity, trust release + coverage gates clean; PostgreSQL suites green. Every regression test confirmed failing against its unfixed source, including the concurrency proofs driven through a fake Redis client that yields inside every call.

The transfer's destination credit discarded the helper's result. The source debit is already applied in the same transaction, so a credit matching zero rows left transfer reporting success with the credits removed from the source and never added to the destination. Only wallet_id guards that write, so a miss means the row is gone; the transfer now aborts. The proofs asserted pytest.raises(Exception), which would accept an AttributeError from the injection wrapper or a driver fault as a refusal. They now name the concrete class -- InsufficientFundsError for the funds refusals, ValueError for the frozen-parent refusal -- and keep the message check as a secondary assertion. The PostgreSQL conservation tests likewise assert that every non-success is the expected refusal, so a pool timeout or a deadlock can no longer produce the right split for the wrong reason. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01FsXYfTHDLiFNQ24R5JPN7H * fix(wallets): report a vanished credit destination instead of failing to refresh _apply_balance_delta refreshed the wallet before inspecting rowcount. When the guarded UPDATE matched no row because the row was gone, the refresh raised InvalidRequestError ("Could not refresh instance") and that reached the caller in place of the miss the helper exists to report -- so a transfer to a deleted destination surfaced an opaque SQLAlchemy error rather than WalletNotFoundError. The rowcount is now inspected first. A matched row is refreshed as before; a miss still refreshes, so the caller's error message is built from committed values, but tolerates the row being absent. No money was ever at risk here: the exception aborted the transaction and the already-applied debit rolled back with it. The defect was the diagnosis, not the accounting, which is why the new test asserts both the exception type and that the source balance is untouched. Confirmed to fail against the unfixed helper with the exact InvalidRequestError. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01FsXYfTHDLiFNQ24R5JPN7H * fix(wallets): treat a zero lifetime cap as a cap; refuse non-positive budgets Two input-shape defects on the debits this PR guards, both found in review. A stored max_spend of Decimal("0") was read two different ways inside the same function. The guarded UPDATE compares lifetime_debits against the column, so a zero cap correctly refused the debit. The Python checks around it used truthiness, so zero read as "no cap configured": the pre-check waved the debit through, and the failure path skipped the cap branch and reported an empty balance instead. The result was a wallet holding 400 credits refusing a 10-credit delegation with "Insufficient funds: 400.00000000 < 10". All four checks (delegation and transfer, pre-check and failure path) now test `is not None`, so both halves agree with the SQL. Non-positive budget_credits is now refused before either provisioning debit. The guard a negative budget would meet is `balance >= budget_credits`, which it satisfies trivially, so the debit ran as a credit: the sponsor or parent gained and the new wallet opened holding a negative balance. A child in that state cannot be unwound by a later reclaim, which only credits back a positive reclaim_amount. Both request schemas already require gt=0, so this was never reachable over HTTP -- but the service must not corrupt state when called directly, and the two methods being hardened here are exactly the ones that would. All four new tests are confirmed to fail against the unfixed source: the two zero-cap cases report insufficient funds on a funded wallet, and the non-positive cases do not raise at all. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com> Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01FsXYfTHDLiFNQ24R5JPN7H * fix(wallets): allow a zero provisioning budget; only negative is refused The previous commit refused budget_credits <= 0. That was wrong, and CI caught it: tests/test_permit_postgres_concurrency.py seeds a destination wallet with budget_credits=0 and the guard rejected it. Zero is a legal, documented input. SelfProvisionRequest.budget_credits is declared ge=0 (app/routers/dev_keys.py:64), so a zero-budget self-provision is a supported request that opens an empty wallet for later top-up. Refusing it raised after the caller's sponsor wallet had already been committed -- answering 500 and leaving an orphaned sponsor behind. The hazard was only ever the negative case: the guard balance >= budget is trivially satisfied by a negative amount, so the debit runs as a credit. Zero debits nothing and opens an empty wallet, which is exactly what the caller asked for. Both guards now refuse only budget_credits < 0. Adds a test that a zero budget opens an empty wallet and leaves the sponsor balance untouched, so the self-provision contract is pinned rather than implied. Verified against a live PostgreSQL 16 this time, not just SQLite: both jobs that gate this PR pass locally -- test_permit_postgres_concurrency.py (14) and test_mcp_postgres_multiprocess.py (13). The regression reached CI because the previous run only exercised SQLite, where those files skip.

spent_creditsmutation is applied as a single guarded UPDATE." That was false —reconcile_budgetsdid a plain ORM assignment. Rather than weaken the claim, the code now makes it true.A skipped repair is no longer silent.
reconcile_budgetsreturns a count of writes, so a pass that skipped every permit and a pass that found nothing to repair returned the same0; skips are now counted and logged, and the docstring states that a skipped permit is left as found and re-examined next pass.2 — Wallet and ledger money moves (

updated_atuntouched.WalletModel.updated_athas a default but noonupdate, and a CoreUPDATEbypasses the ORM attribute write — so the most consequential move the wallet sees was the one leaving the row looking untouched. It now sets the timestamp like every other balance-moving wallet write.3 — The delegated cap, and the freeze that arrives mid-charge (
2e1c11b,55f03d4,5525051)Raised by review on this PR: the child-wallet cap
lifetime_debits + charge_amount <= max_spendhad the same shape as the balance, and my balance guard did not carry it — they are separate predicates. Both now travel with the debit, and a lost race is classified so a cap breach is still reported as a cap breach.The same reasoning applies to a freeze. A wallet frozen between the status check and the write was still debited; the freeze predicate now travels with the debit too. When that guard is what rejects the write, the refusal reports
wallet_frozenwith zero shortfall — matching the ordinary frozen path, because a freeze blocks spending regardless of balance, and a caller told it is short by the full charge would top the wallet up and be refused again.permit_write_contendedis no longer stored as a denial. It means the guarded write lost to contention and exhausted its retries — nothing reserved, nothing charged — so the idempotency key is released and the caller gets a retryable 503, instead of a 403 frozen into the record for every future replay of that key.The orphaned local debit — deferred to #306, not authored here
An earlier commit on this branch carried a third reconciler pass for the crash window between
money.charge()andmark_charged(). #306 landed a better implementation of the same idea — it runs before the stuck pass with an explicit flush, and classifies repaired-versus-review — so this branch dropped its own and takes #306's wholesale via the merge at684c103. Credit for that fix belongs to #306. It appears in this diff only because the merge brings it in against an older base.Documentation corrected where it described something the code does not do
invention-inventory.mdlisted the debit ledger entry as the fourth member ofprepare()'s atomic unit. It is not —prepare()writes no ledger entry, and its own docstring names the idempotency record, permit row, reservation, and attempt identity.complete_awi_http_governed's docstring said "Charge wallet, reserve permit budget"; the code reserves first, and one path —ChargeCreditMismatchError, where the wallet is already debited — deliberately retains the reservation. Both are now stated. Anyone reasoning about crash compensation from the old reading had the required rollback backwards.PROOF_MATRIX.mdsaid the coverage gate covers 20 test files across 18 modules (actually 24 and 22) and that CI runs "the same six tests" inpostgres_permit_concurrency(actually 13 crash-consistency tests then 11 row-lock tests).Type of Change
Validation
Every regression test was confirmed to fail against the unfixed source — by reverting the services, not the tests:
permit_budget_exceeded, notpermit_revokedTrue9back to0updated_atAn extra test asserts a genuine cap breach still denies with
permit_budget_exceeded, so the added predicates cannot swallow the reason they sit in front of; it passes against both versions by design.The interleaves are forced deterministically through an instrumented session, fired after a statement returns so the seam is identical across fixed and unfixed code, which issue different numbers of statements. Each asserts the interleave actually fired before asserting anything else, so a harness that misses the window fails loudly instead of passing quietly. That guard earned its keep twice: an early draft of the conservation test passed against unfixed source because the hook never landed in the window, and the assertion caught it.

No migration, no API surface change.Stated plainly: on PostgreSQL the row locks already prevented most of these, so those fixes change nothing there. They matter on SQLite, which this repository permits in production. The exceptions — genuinely engine-independent — are the
refund_reconciliationpermit write, theupdated_atgap, the contention-as-denial bug, and the doc corrections.Not in this PR
Five findings were verified and deliberately deferred; the reasoning for each is in this comment. In short: the velocity increment surviving an unexpected debit failure and the missing period marker on reversal are both pre-existing and unchanged in exposure by this branch; effective wallet expiry cannot join the guarded
UPDATEwithout a recursive CTE or a denormalised column; the PostgreSQL guard for the interleaving tests guards a statetests/conftest.pymakes unreachable today; and the/v1/billing/chargenegative paths belong intests/test_billing.py, which this PR does not touch. All are carried to the hardening follow-up.
