[cr-test] sandbox-store: detach snapshot storage before pruning a tombstone so one row can't stall retention - #1532
The tombstone-retention prune hard-deletes deleted sandbox rows. That cascades to snapshots, and the foreign key from snapshot_storage_locations to snapshots is ON DELETE RESTRICT. The census tombstone (the marked_deleted step of prune_census_absent_sandboxes in crates/libs/sandbox/store/src/ingest.rs) leaves a row's snapshots and their attached locations in place.
Example: a sandbox tombstoned by a node census with one ready snapshot and one attached location stays deleted for 7 days, then becomes a prune candidate next to an ordinary tombstone. The prune statement fails with 23503 snapshot_storage_locations_snapshot_id_fkey, and the whole retention transaction rolls back: node, template and sandbox prunes alike, ordinary tombstone included. Every later tick fails on the same row, so retention stalls.
With this change, tombstone::prune_deleted_sandboxes detaches the candidates' storage locations (snapshot_id = NULL, orphaned_at = NOW()) in the same statement before the delete. delete::delete_with_dependents and delete_published_absent_stopped already do this. The snapshot-storage sweeper then reclaims the objects after its grace period.
Skipping such rows instead would keep them forever: the sweeper only reaps rows that are already detached, and snapshot retention keeps each sandbox's newest snapshot. Candidate selection, ordering, the batch limit and the returned ids are unchanged. The candidate CTE is marked MATERIALIZED because two sub-statements read it.
Validation
New test tombstone_retention::tests::store_prunes_deleted_sandbox_with_attached_storage_location_in_same_batch. On main it fails with 23503 and both tombstones remain. Here it passes: both rows are pruned and the location is detached and stamped.
Changed test expectations: none. The new test is the only test change.
cargo arch against main's baseline and architecture: 0 required findings, sandbox_writes unchanged.
Kind, fresh cluster from this head (SPACE_KIND_TELEMETRY_MODE=otel, CI's admin-token and cold-receipt directories), bring-up in 8m10s. Staged one aged tombstone with a snapshot and attached location, plus one ordinary aged tombstone. The next retention tick logged deleted_sandboxes_deleted: 2, and the location was left detached and stamped for the sweeper.
scripts/tests/smoke-kind-typed.sh all: ECW 91/91, native 42/42 passed in 65m50s. The console scenarios are withheld as in CI.
Not validated: the defect end to end on main's images, the sweeper reaping a staged location on Kind (grace period), and the Direct-substrate lane.
Severity and risk
Severity: medium. One such row stops all tombstone retention until someone intervenes by hand. No user-facing data is lost.
Risk: the prune now hands a tombstone's snapshot objects to the sweeper. Those objects can't be reached once the row is pruned, because the snapshot rows cascade away. No schema change. Rollback: revert the commit. Locations already detached stay valid sweeper input.
Rollout
During a rolling update, a controller on the old version that holds the retention lease keeps failing on such rows until a new-version leader takes over. Nothing else interacts between versions.
AI assistance: Claude Code investigated the defect and drafted the fix, the regression test and this description.

Why: Expired sandbox snapshots now have their storage detached for later cleanup. This retention change warrants verification before merging.
Commit: c5686632c4ff.
Walkthrough
Pruning expired deleted sandboxes now detaches their snapshot-storage locations and marks them orphaned in the deletion statement. A database test checks the update for eligible sandboxes and confirms that locations remain attached for a recent deleted sandbox and an aged sandbox in the stopped lifecycle.

observed — crates (service) was modified; 2 changed files map to changed impact.
Before / after behavior
observed — Modified behavior in crates/libs/cluster/controller/server/src/tombstone_retention/tests.rs: The test imports now include LocalArtifactId and publish_ready_disk_artifact.
observed — Modified behavior in crates/libs/cluster/controller/server/src/tombstone_retention/tests.rs: Adds a database test covering pruning expired deleted sandboxes alongside attached snapshot-storage locations. It checks that both eligible sandboxes are deleted, the attached location is detached and marked orphaned, and locations for a recent deleted sandbox and an aged stopped sandbox remain attached and unstamped.
observed — Modified behavior in crates/libs/sandbox/store/src/tombstone.rs: The documentation now describes detaching snapshot storage locations and marking them orphaned during pruning, and explains that census pruning leaves them attached while snapshot retention does not necessarily remove every snapshot.
observed — Modified behavior in crates/libs/sandbox/store/src/tombstone.rs: The candidate CTE is now declared MATERIALIZED; the function’s selection criteria and signature are unchanged.

Explanation
The pull request fixes application behavior under crates/. Its Validation section names tombstone_retention::tests::store_prunes_deleted_sandbox_with_attached_storage_location_in_same_batch and states that it fails without the fix and passes with it. The diff adds that regression test and the detachment logic it exercises.
Full details: Weakened Safeguards Are Justified
Explanation
The diff does not weaken a test, assertion, lint, CI check, or repository guard. It changes only two Rust source files, adds a regression test with assertions, and replaces the prune query CTE while preserving candidate selection and deletion behavior. No skip, allowlist, baseline, optional-dependency setting, lint change, or CI-step removal is present.

No public-safety violation found. The diff contains only code, tests, and synthetic s3://snapshots/... fixture values. The title and description contain no credentials, private keys, internal URLs, personal paths, production data, or undisclosed security vulnerability details.
Full details: Title check
Explanation
The title uses the bracketed tag "[cr-test]" as a prefix, which is not part of the required area format. It then uses "sandbox-store:" as the area prefix, which is a lowercase area followed by a colon and matches the required pattern. The summary after the colon starts with the lowercase word "detach", and it describes the main change: detaching snapshot storage before pruning a tombstone so retention is not stalled. The title does not end with a period and has no ticket ID or link. The main failure is the extra "[cr-test]" tag, which the requirement does not allow. The title is also 108 characters long.
Resolution
Remove the "[cr-test] " prefix so the title starts with "sandbox-store: ". Result: "sandbox-store: detach snapshot storage before pruning a tombstone so one row can't stall retention".
