feat(net)!: lite-07 Range IDs, SUBSCRIBE_STARTED, and range fills - #7872
Range IDs. Each lite-07 Range takes an implicit Range ID. SUBSCRIBE_UPDATE edits the live Ranges (Remove Count Range IDs, then the Ranges to add) instead of restating them, using the encoding from moq-dev/moq#7207. The live Ranges stay non-empty and fit in one SUBSCRIBE, or the publisher closes the session with PROTOCOL_VIOLATION. Rust (lite::LiveRanges, lite::RangeEdit) and JS (LiveRanges) resolve each edit in the publisher's request loop, so updates sent before the reply starts compose.
SUBSCRIBE_STARTED (type 0x4). SUBSCRIBE_OK answers the SUBSCRIBE's Ranges. SUBSCRIBE_STARTED reports where each Range an update adds starts, once it resolves, or with no start once the track ends. Both subscribers owe an added Range's groups from it, and their tails wait for it.
A Range resolves once. An update that keeps a Range live does not count its relative anchors back from a newer latest group, so a start the subscriber was told never moves.
Range fill through the subscription (Rust). A lite-07 copy asks for a fill of more than one group as ranges on its upstream subscription, beside the demand's. When no demand is open it uses a fills-only bounded SUBSCRIBE. This ports the earlier WIP commit b7f573d as lite/subscriber/fills.rs.
Only the demand's ranges set the floor and the live state.
A subscription carrying only fills sets neither, and canceling it does not idle the copy.
If the demand leaves while fills are out, the subscription keeps the demand's ranges until the fills are answered.
A fill is judged against the subscription that asked for it: SUBSCRIBE_DROP, or a SUBSCRIBE_OK / SUBSCRIBE_STARTED start past its range.
A run stays on the wire until its streams finish reading.
Recovery. A group the subscription dropped as OLD under the live budget, or one it already delivered that the copy has since evicted, is asked for once on a SUBSCRIBE of its own with no max delay. The copy doesn't record that OLD drop on the track meanwhile.
JS names SUBSCRIBE_FINISH.SubscribeEnd is now SubscribeFinish, with response key finish. The JS subscriber's covered-FIN path (#parkCovered, #demandCovered, the short reopen loop) is deleted, since no lite-07 publisher triggers it.
Draft. Covers Range IDs, the edit encoding, SUBSCRIBE_STARTED, the fill rule, the recovery rule, and lite-07 changelog bullets.
Choices made without asking
SUBSCRIBE_STARTED is type 0x4. SUBSCRIBE_SKIP keeps 0x3 (moq-dev/moq#7670 is approved). The quest had decided 0x3 before SKIP took it.
SUBSCRIBE_OK answers the SUBSCRIBE's Ranges. Its count is always the SUBSCRIBE's Range Count, with 0 for one an update retired. Every Range an update adds, even one added before SUBSCRIBE_OK, gets SUBSCRIBE_STARTED. The plan said OK answers "the Ranges live when it is sent", but a subscriber can't tell which in-flight updates the publisher applied first.
A Range resolves once. The publisher pins a persisting Range's resolved relative anchors when an update arrives.
One group keeps FETCH on lite-07. Only fills of more than one group ride the subscription. This follows decision 3 on moq-dev/moq#7675 ("FETCH ... for a single group (or slice within a single group). SUBSCRIBE is for multiple groups"). A fill from partway through a group, up to a frame within one, or a time lookup also keeps FETCH.
As a result, fetch_fanout still counts FETCH streams, and the rejoin cache-expiry tests keep their prompt NotFound.
Recovery also covers delivered-then-evicted history. A publisher never sends a group twice on one subscription, so history the live subscription already delivered (and the cache has since evicted) can't come back on it. Without this, a reader reaching back would hang.
Recovery asks for a whole run. It recovers the contiguous run of dropped groups on one SUBSCRIBE, which is the one-group SUBSCRIBE when the run is one group.
On lite-07, a second SUBSCRIBE_OK is a PROTOCOL_VIOLATION. So is a SUBSCRIBE_STARTED for an unassigned, initial, or already-reported Range ID.
widened_max_age::a_tightened_start_leaves_history_fillable_by_an_intermediate_reader can no longer watch a FETCH, because the history now rides the subscription. It now checks that the reader gets the history below the start and that nothing was fetched.
A time start resolves once too. Both publishers pin a live Range's start to the group it resolved to whenever that resolution names a group (relative or time, group 0 included), and pin a settled relative or time end. A start reaching back to the oldest group held stays as it was, since an absolute start would turn it into a floor the subscriber never named. The window's Resolved carries floored for this (rs/moq-net/src/model/subscription/window.rs, js/net/src/window.ts).
Fills are told from demand by Range ID.LiveRanges::edit_keyed keeps a live range's Range ID only for a wanted range of the same owner, so a fill asking for exactly a demand range's bounds takes a range of its own and keeps its Range ID while it stays held. A fill's ID is kept until SUBSCRIBE_START even once an update retires the fill, so its start never sets where the live feed is served from.
A fill refused short of a genuine miss records nothing (maintainer, 2026-11-04; see Decisions). Only a SUBSCRIBE_DROP naming groups not found, or groups past SUBSCRIBE_FINISH, are recorded as dropped (Fill::drop_groups). Everything else answers only the fills owing the groups now (Fill::refuse_groups), so a later reader or a lowered start asks again:
a range's own start skip, which also stands only while that range is live;
a stale (Old) drop after one recovery;
history already recovered once;
a recovery cut short.
A recovery's publisher is held to the same protocol as the subscription's. A second SUBSCRIBE_OK or SUBSCRIBE_FINISH, a SUBSCRIBE_STARTED (a recovery never adds a range), a FIN before either side finished, or malformed bytes close the session with PROTOCOL_VIOLATION. A reset refuses what is left with the reset's own error. A track the publisher finished ends only once no recovery is outstanding.
Impact
Wire: unpublished lite-07 only. The SUBSCRIBE_UPDATE layout changes, and SUBSCRIBE_STARTED (0x4) is new. A lite-07 copy asks for multi-group fills with SUBSCRIBE instead of FETCH.
Public API: none. Rust lite is private, and js/net/src/lite is internal.
Validation
On 10e2fe2bef. The JS runs are from 10611bf3a7: the commits since touch no js/net file, being a conflict-free merge of origin/main and a Rust-only fix. Later commits add only conflict-free merges of origin/main, which touch neither moq-net nor js/net, and the quest edit for decision 3.
cargo nextest run -p moq-net --all-features: 3446 passed.
js/net: bun run check (tsc) and bun test (2936 pass); biome clean.
just test relay-fill (a JS relay between Rust peers, lite-05/06/07): passed.
cargo clippy -p moq-net --tests --all-features and quest check clean.
New tests:
fills::a_skipped_start_is_never_a_loss: a skipped prefix leaves the groups for a later reader to re-request and receive, and a genuine miss stays dropped. It fails with the skip answered through drop_groups.
lite07_an_added_time_start_keeps_its_start (Rust): group 4, group 0, and an unfloored start.
lite-07 keeps an added time start that resolved to group 0 (JS): fails with the old group-0 exemption.
range_fill::a_recovery_outlives_the_track_finishing: fails without the recovery gate.
Earlier rounds ran just check origin/main, just drafts check, and just test interop --all. They were not re-run on this head.
Decisions
Answered by the maintainer on 2026-11-04 (1 and 2 first, then 3 and 4):
Design checkpoint (review round 4), 2026-11-04:
✅ Continue: fix the open finding, then start a fresh session with quest review --new.
Rethink the approach.
Merge as is.
Drop the PR.
The start-skip finding, 2026-11-04:
✅ A start skip is never a permanent loss. Re-requesting once a later update lowers the start is expected. Cache only a genuine NotFound (the group doesn't exist), never an ephemeral error (Old, Lagged, Evicted, a cancel). A range's own start skip is the subscriber's choice, so it is ephemeral. drop_groups stays for real SUBSCRIBE_DROPs.
Keep drop_groups, treating a range start as proof the source lost the groups.
Applied in 483305c550 as choice 12. Paths this PR touches that cached an ephemeral verdict, all now refuse_groups: the start skip; a second stale drop, which went through Fill::reject_groups(Old) and recorded a drop when the fill's budget bound everyone; and history recovered once, which recorded NotFound. Two main-branch paths that also cache Old are left alone (decision 4).
JS multi-group fills through the subscription, 2026-11-04:
✅ Follow-up: land this PR for Rust, and name the JS port (subscription ranges, recovery, skips) in lite07-fetch.md with the reason. JS copies started filling only in moq-dev/moq#7845, after this PR was scoped, and their one-group FETCHes break no wire rule. Done in a4109aff33.
Port JS subscription fills into this PR.
The two main-branch paths that cache Old (the live subscription's SUBSCRIBE_DROP recording every error, and lite/IETF FETCH's Fill::reject), 2026-11-04:
✅ Out of scope here. Errors should be cached for a bounded time, which means telling permanent errors from retryable ones; a new m1 quest is being planned for that. This PR's own three paths (decision 2) stay fixed.
Change them in this PR.
Review
mechanical fix by codex / Codex: Merged base and removed obsolete prerequisite to deleted lite.md; passed quest check, git diff --check, cargo fmt --all --check, cargo build --locked -p moq-net, cargo test --locked -p moq-net (local Nix library paths), bun biome check --error-on-warnings ., bun run --cwd js/net build, bun run --cwd js/net check, bun run --cwd js/net test. (head 23a690e)
Codex gpt-6.1-sol (medium) via quest review --new, session 01a1a89b, after the design checkpoint:
Round 1 (eb27b0e532):
Fixed in 10611bf3a7: a time start resolved to group 0 still re-resolved (the earlier exemption assumed group 0 couldn't move).
JS multi-group fills: settled as a follow-up by decision 3.
Round 2 (10611bf3a7): one finding, the JS fills scope. My refutation cited lite07-fetch.md's plan, which this PR itself wrote, and the reviewer rejected it under AGENTS.md.
Round 3 (10e2fe2bef): covered the retired-fill fix below. Its only finding was the JS fills scope again, which the maintainer settled as out of scope (decision 3, 2026-11-04): the port is named in lite07-fetch.md. No finding is open.
a4109aff33, which only edits lite07-fetch.md and its epic link to record decision 3, and a conflict-free merge of origin/main skip review: no code changed since round 3.
Earlier session 01a1a758, rounds 1–4, closed at the design checkpoint:
Round 4 (e3b0663bb8): one finding, fixed in 483305c550 per decision 2.
Round 3 (9d0504e743): no findings.
Round 1 (20413b77e6):
Fixed: draining cleanup and Recovery::end walked every sequence of a run. They now visit only what the cache holds or the tail accounted for.
Fixed: the recovered set outlived the fill that asked. A group is now recovered once for the fills owing it now.
Fixed: a recovery outlived its withdrawn fills.
Round 2 (81fc76954f):
Fixed: a recovery kept for a stalled stream after every reader left. It is now released once nobody reads the track.
A CodeRabbit thread on 47044111da (a fill retired before SUBSCRIBE_START set the live feed's start) is fixed in 10e2fe2bef, then replied to and resolved.
Bot threads on 9d0504e743, all replied to and resolved:
Fixed:
the JS STARTED and START indexing race;
finishing with a recovery out;
pinning time starts and ends;
the O(n²) Range ID lookups;
telling fills from demand by Range ID;
scoping start skips to their range;
keeping a recovery's reset error;
recovery protocol violations.
Declined, with evidence in each thread:
SUBSCRIBE_STARTED moving the track's feed start;
the route-gap fallback in servingResolved;
fills-only on demand leaving;
a cap on recoveries.
Suggested follow-ups
Main-branch paths that cache Old, covered by the planned m1 quest for bounded error caching that tells permanent errors from retryable ones (decision 4):
the live subscription's SUBSCRIBE_DROP, which records every error on the track (track::Producer::drop_groups);
lite and IETF FETCH's Fill::reject, which records Old as dropped when the publisher's max age binds.
JS multi-group fills through the subscription: now named in lite07-fetch.md (decision 3).
A None start reaches back to the oldest group, which the draft resolves to
group 0, so the JS publisher now reports it instead of leaving it unresolved.
An empty range reports no start, matching the Rust publisher.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
A range like Relative(0) to Absolute(2) is empty only once its start
resolves past its end. Window::resolved keeps such a span, so SUBSCRIBE_OK
reported a start for it. Window::starts now drops it for both plain and
route-following readers.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Bounds::new widened a range like (3,5) to (3,5) to all of group 3, so
SUBSCRIBE_OK reported a start for it and its empty frame part narrowed group
3 for any other range covering it. It now maps to an empty model range.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Each Range Start now names where that range's delivery starts, raised past
the groups the publisher skipped or expired, so the lowest is the old Group
and the field is redundant. Earlier versions keep Group, carried as the one
range's start.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…rt counts
A covered FIN counted a relative or time range from the lowest start of any
range, so disjoint ranges owed the gap between them. The JS subscriber now
rejects a lite-07 SUBSCRIBE_START whose count isn't the one range it sends.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The earlier attempt's covered-FIN fixes are superseded by main's explicit
end (#7675), so the merge takes main's tree.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
Each lite-07 range takes an implicit Range ID, and SUBSCRIBE_UPDATE edits
the live ranges instead of restating them. SUBSCRIBE_OK answers the
SUBSCRIBE's ranges, and SUBSCRIBE_STARTED (type 0x3) reports where each
range an update adds starts. A range resolves once: an update that keeps
it live never counts its relative anchors back from a newer group.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…IBE_FINISH by name
The JS codec, publisher, and subscriber carry lite-07 Range IDs: updates edit
the live ranges, SUBSCRIBE_OK answers the SUBSCRIBE's ranges, and
SUBSCRIBE_STARTED reports where each range an update adds starts. The JS
names SUBSCRIBE_FINISH as Rust and the draft do, and its subscriber drops the
covered-FIN reopen, which no lite-07 publisher triggers.

Lite-07 ranges
feat(net)!: lite-07 Range IDs and SUBSCRIBE_STARTED
Nov 4, 2026
A lite-07 copy asks for a fill of more than one group as ranges on its upstream
subscription, beside the demand's, or on a fills-only bounded SUBSCRIBE when no
demand is open. One group, or a slice of one, keeps FETCH. The demand's budget
caps every range, and a group it drops as stale, or one the subscription
already delivered and the cache has since evicted, is asked again once on a
SUBSCRIBE of its own with no max delay. SUBSCRIBE_OK answers only the
SUBSCRIBE's ranges in both publishers.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
…he fills owing it
A draining run looks only at the groups the cache holds, and a recovery's end
at the runs its tail accounted for, so neither costs a wide run's width. A
group is recovered once for the fills owing it now, so a later request may
recover it again, and a recovery no held fill owes is cancelled once none of
its streams is still being read, so it never keeps a copy nobody reads.

Reviewed changes
Made a fill refused short of a genuine miss ephemeral: fills.rs now carries Refusal { err, lost }, answering start skips, second stale drops, already-recovered history and cut-short recoveries through Fill::refuse_groups, while only a publisher-named NotFound (SUBSCRIBE_DROP or past SUBSCRIBE_FINISH) still calls drop_groups.
Pinned a time start that resolved to group 0: Resolved carries floored, and both publishers pin a relative or time start only when it names a group, leaving a start that reaches back to the oldest group unpinned.
Added fills::a_skipped_start_is_never_a_loss and the Rust time_start_across_an_update helper (group 4, group 0, and before-oldest cases), plus the matching JS group-0 test and the floored expectations in the window tests.
Merged origin/main twice; the deltas touch neither the new fill logic nor the pin logic.
The lost flag matches the maintainer's rule that only genuine NotFound is permanent, and the floored condition mirrors the window's start() in both languages.
…eed's start
A fill's Range ID is kept until SUBSCRIBE_START arrives, so a fill an update
retired before it is still told apart from the demand's ranges, and its
start never lowers where the live feed is served from.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The prior skipped-prefix P2 is fixed: start skips now use request-local refuse_groups, while genuine publisher NotFound remains a recorded loss. The later-reader regression covers that distinction. The latest retired-fill-ID fix also keeps those ranges from setting the live feed's start.
[P2] Preserve the unfloored state through routed readers — publisher.rs:4877–4878. A routed subscriber obtains this resolution through resume::Reader::resolve, which reconstructs every time start as Absolute(start), losing floored=false. For example, with oldest held group 5 starting at 5 s, a time start at 0.1 s resolves unfloored to 0. The resume layer reports it as floored, so the new condition pins it to Absolute(0) when a later update retains the range. That lowers the serving cursor to zero and makes the window request missing groups [0,5), which the unfloored time range deliberately did not request. Preserve the unfloored distinction through resume resolution, and exercise this case through a routed subscriber; the new publisher test uses a direct producer and cannot catch it.
Direction: the refusal fix addresses the earlier issue; complete the routed propagation of the new time-start distinction. The separately recorded JS scope decision remains for the maintainer.
Verification: GitHub-only static review of substantive changes and affected fill, recovery, window, publisher and routed-reader paths, accounting for base merges. No tests, scheduling reproduction or interop were run.

Re-reviewed the delta since the prior pullfrog review at 47044111d (one commit, rs/moq-net/src/lite/subscriber.rs):
Retired fill no longer sets the live feed's start.SubStream::edit now defers pruning fill_ids while !started, so a fill an update retired before SUBSCRIBE_START keeps its Range ID; the START loop's new None if active.fill_ids.contains(&id) arm ignores that start instead of folding it into served, and fill_ids is pruned to live IDs once START is applied. This fixes the CodeRabbit thread on 47044111d.
Regression coverage.a_lite07_fill_is_known_by_its_range_id now retires a fill before START, asserts its ID is still treated as a fill's, then asserts it is forgotten after START.
The new arm can only catch retired fills (fills are always absolute, so fill_range still handles live ones), and fill_ids is populated only on lite-07, so pre-07 retired-demand handling is unchanged.
No new actionable findings in the documentation-only follow-up. The plan now explicitly records the maintainer's decision to move JS subscription fills, recovery and skips into lite07-fetch.md. That settles the earlier JS scope question; the base merge only retires an unrelated quest.
The prior routed time-start P2 remains open: resume.rs:1095–1115 still turns every Time start into Absolute(start), losing floored=false before publisher.rs:4877–4878 pins a retained range. A before-oldest time start can therefore become an absolute-zero history request after an update. Preserve that distinction through routed resolution and cover it through a routed subscriber, as detailed in the previous review.
Direction: the scope clarification is consistent with the recorded decision; the separate routed-resolution fix is still needed.
Verification: GitHub-only, base-aware review of the two changed plan files and recheck of the unchanged P2 paths. No tests, interop or quest context execution.

Preserve unfloored time starts in the routed reader.
When the serving copy resolves a time start before every held group, it returns Resolved { start: 0, floored: false }. Reader::resolve converts that start to Anchor::Absolute(0), which Window::new treats as floored. A later Lite-07 update can then pin the live time range to group 0 and request history outside the original range.
Represent an unfloored resolved time start as Anchor::Relative(u64::MAX). This preserves floored: false without leaving the routed reader's time anchor unresolved.
Suggested fix
start: match range.start {
// The farthest offset reaches back to the oldest group, which names no floor.
Anchor::Relative(back) if back != u64::MAX => Anchor::Absolute(start),
- Anchor::Time(_) => Anchor::Absolute(start),+ Anchor::Time(_) if resolved.floored => Anchor::Absolute(start),+ Anchor::Time(_) => Anchor::Relative(u64::MAX),
start => start,

Scope the "recovered once" refusal to the fills that owe it now.
These lines insert Refusal::passing(StreamError::NotFound) into refused for a group that was recovered once and then evicted again. The comment on line 220 and the comment on lines 301-303 say a later request may recover the group again. The current code does not do that:
Only forget_refused clears refused, so this entry lasts for the life of the subscription.
The pruning block on lines 308-314 clears recovered for runs no fill owes. It does not touch refused.
Suppose a later fill asks for the same group. The checks on lines 219 and 225 find the old entry and skip recovery. Line 285 then refuses the fill at once with Error::NotFound.
The result is that every later reader of that evicted group is refused until the upstream subscription restarts. This is the opposite of what the comments promise.
Do not use refused here. refused should keep only explicit SUBSCRIBE_DROP results and completed-recovery refusals, which are terminal by design. Store this refusal in a separate scoped map, as skipped does. Clear an entry when owed no longer overlaps it, in the same step that prunes recovered. Also add a test: recover a group, evict it again, withdraw the fill, push a new fill for the same group, and check that a new Recovery starts.

In the fill recovery flow, track recovered-and-evicted ranges separately from
terminal refusals so they block only fills that currently owe those ranges.
Update the refusal lookup to consult this scoped tracking, and prune it
alongside recovered using the ranges still owed. Add a test that recovers and
evicts a group, withdraws its fill, then confirms a new fill for that group
starts a new Recovery.

Resolves the overlap with lite-07 Range IDs (#7872) and the stream-open
line (#7894):
- SUBSCRIBE_UPDATE carries `Update` after the Range edit (Remove Count,
Range IDs, Ranges), before Wanted Group, in Rust, JS and the draft.
- SUBSCRIBE_SKIP keeps 0x3 beside SUBSCRIBE_STARTED at 0x4.
- The Rust subscriber's OLD drop records a stale run except for groups a
range fill asked for, which main's recovery asks for again; every drop
and skip also answers the fills owing it.
- The JS covered-FIN reopen loop and its tests go, as main deleted them.
- Tests written against unlimited history now ask for it explicitly,
since authored tracks default to a zero max age.

Finishes Lite-07 ranges and deletes its quest file.
Summary
Remove CountRange IDs, then the Ranges to add) instead of restating them, using the encoding from moq-dev/moq#7207. The live Ranges stay non-empty and fit in one SUBSCRIBE, or the publisher closes the session with PROTOCOL_VIOLATION. Rust (lite::LiveRanges,lite::RangeEdit) and JS (LiveRanges) resolve each edit in the publisher's request loop, so updates sent before the reply starts compose.lite/subscriber/fills.rs.SubscribeEndis nowSubscribeFinish, with response keyfinish. The JS subscriber's covered-FIN path (#parkCovered,#demandCovered, theshortreopen loop) is deleted, since no lite-07 publisher triggers it.Choices made without asking
SUBSCRIBE_STARTED is type 0x4. SUBSCRIBE_SKIP keeps 0x3 (moq-dev/moq#7670 is approved). The quest had decided 0x3 before SKIP took it.
SUBSCRIBE_OK answers the SUBSCRIBE's Ranges. Its count is always the SUBSCRIBE's
Range Count, with 0 for one an update retired. Every Range an update adds, even one added before SUBSCRIBE_OK, gets SUBSCRIBE_STARTED. The plan said OK answers "the Ranges live when it is sent", but a subscriber can't tell which in-flight updates the publisher applied first.A Range resolves once. The publisher pins a persisting Range's resolved relative anchors when an update arrives.
One group keeps FETCH on lite-07. Only fills of more than one group ride the subscription. This follows decision 3 on moq-dev/moq#7675 ("FETCH ... for a single group (or slice within a single group). SUBSCRIBE is for multiple groups"). A fill from partway through a group, up to a frame within one, or a time lookup also keeps FETCH.
fetch_fanoutstill counts FETCH streams, and therejoincache-expiry tests keep their prompt NotFound.Recovery also covers delivered-then-evicted history. A publisher never sends a group twice on one subscription, so history the live subscription already delivered (and the cache has since evicted) can't come back on it. Without this, a reader reaching back would hang.
Recovery asks for a whole run. It recovers the contiguous run of dropped groups on one SUBSCRIBE, which is the one-group SUBSCRIBE when the run is one group.
Fill budget. The upstream subscription keeps the live demand's budget, so the live cap never loosens (decision 2 on feat(net)!: lite-07 SUBSCRIBE_FINISH keeps the Subscribe Stream open (lite-07 ranges, part 1) #7675). A fills-only subscription uses the fills' most tolerant budget.
On lite-07, a second SUBSCRIBE_OK is a PROTOCOL_VIOLATION. So is a SUBSCRIBE_STARTED for an unassigned, initial, or already-reported Range ID.
widened_max_age::a_tightened_start_leaves_history_fillable_by_an_intermediate_readercan no longer watch a FETCH, because the history now rides the subscription. It now checks that the reader gets the history below the start and that nothing was fetched.A time start resolves once too. Both publishers pin a live Range's start to the group it resolved to whenever that resolution names a group (relative or time, group 0 included), and pin a settled relative or time end. A start reaching back to the oldest group held stays as it was, since an absolute start would turn it into a floor the subscriber never named. The window's
Resolvedcarriesflooredfor this (rs/moq-net/src/model/subscription/window.rs,js/net/src/window.ts).Fills are told from demand by Range ID.
LiveRanges::edit_keyedkeeps a live range's Range ID only for a wanted range of the same owner, so a fill asking for exactly a demand range's bounds takes a range of its own and keeps its Range ID while it stays held. A fill's ID is kept until SUBSCRIBE_START even once an update retires the fill, so its start never sets where the live feed is served from.A fill refused short of a genuine miss records nothing (maintainer, 2026-11-04; see Decisions). Only a SUBSCRIBE_DROP naming groups not found, or groups past SUBSCRIBE_FINISH, are recorded as dropped (
Fill::drop_groups). Everything else answers only the fills owing the groups now (Fill::refuse_groups), so a later reader or a lowered start asks again:Old) drop after one recovery;A recovery's publisher is held to the same protocol as the subscription's. A second SUBSCRIBE_OK or SUBSCRIBE_FINISH, a SUBSCRIBE_STARTED (a recovery never adds a range), a FIN before either side finished, or malformed bytes close the session with PROTOCOL_VIOLATION. A reset refuses what is left with the reset's own error. A track the publisher finished ends only once no recovery is outstanding.
