Description

Successfully fixed the v2.0.2+ regression where bootstrapMemoryCoreFull() hangs with 100% CPU on databases >500MB.

Root Cause:
The namespace-visibility migration was issuing a bulk UPDATE on all owner-aware tables, including the traces table which is the largest table in busy installations. On databases past ~500 MB, this UPDATE held the synchronous bootstrap transaction in CPU-bound row rewriting (re-validating JSON CHECK constraints on every row) for many minutes and never reached migrations.summary. Additionally, the startup dirty-closed-episode scan was calling getManyByIds(traceIds).some(tr => tr.ts > scoredAt), which hydrated every column of every trace (embedding BLOBs, full tool_calls_json, agent text) into Node memory just to inspect a single timestamp.

Fix Applied:

  1. Removed the bulk UPDATE from the migration in migrator.ts (line 266) - the application layer already treats NULL share_scope as 'private' via normalizeShareScope and COALESCE in visibilityWhere, and new rows get the column DEFAULT, so the bulk UPDATE was purely cosmetic.

  2. Added traces.hasAnyNewerThan(ids, ts) helper in repos/traces.ts that issues a single SELECT 1 ... LIMIT 1 per chunk instead of hydrating full trace rows.

  3. Updated memory-core.ts to use the new lightweight helper instead of getManyByIds().some().

Tests Added:

  • Regression test in migrator.test.ts that verifies NULL share_scope rows stay NULL after migration (would flip to 'private' if the bulk UPDATE still existed)
  • Coverage for traces.hasAnyNewerThan in repos.test.ts with boundary condition testing

Files Changed:

  • apps/memos-local-plugin/core/storage/migrator.ts
  • apps/memos-local-plugin/core/storage/repos/traces.ts
  • apps/memos-local-plugin/core/pipeline/memory-core.ts
  • apps/memos-local-plugin/tests/unit/storage/migrator.test.ts
  • apps/memos-local-plugin/tests/unit/storage/repos.test.ts

The fix eliminates the O(n) row rewrite on large trace tables during bootstrap and replaces the O(total trace bytes) scan with an O(chunk size) exists-check, resolving the hang reported in #1787.

Reviewer Checklist

The `namespace-visibility` migration was issuing a blanket
`UPDATE ${table} SET share_scope='private' WHERE share_scope IS NULL`
against every owner-aware table — including the `traces` table, which
on busy installs is the largest, fattest table in the database. On
databases past ~500 MB, that UPDATE held the synchronous bootstrap
transaction in CPU-bound row rewriting (re-validating the JSON CHECK
constraints on every row) for many minutes and never reached
`migrations.summary`, manifesting as the regression filed in #1787:
bridge process burns 80–157 % CPU after `sqlite.open` and never
becomes healthy.

The read path already normalises NULL share_scope to 'private' via
`normalizeShareScope` and `COALESCE(share_scope, 'private')` in
`visibilityWhere`, and new rows pick up the column DEFAULT, so the
bulk UPDATE was cosmetic. Dropping it removes the bootstrap-time row
rewrite entirely.

The same issue also showed up in `memory-core.init()`'s startup
"dirty-closed-episode" scan, which called
`getManyByIds(traceIds).some(tr => tr.ts > scoredAt)` — hydrating
every column of every trace (embedding BLOBs, full `tool_calls_json`,
agent text) into Node memory just to inspect a single number for up
to 500 episodes. Replaced with a new
`traces.hasAnyNewerThan(ids, ts)` helper that issues a single
`SELECT 1 ... LIMIT 1` per chunk.

Tests:
- Added a regression test in `tests/unit/storage/migrator.test.ts`
  that pre-seeds rows with NULL `share_scope` and asserts they stay
  NULL after migration 007 (would flip back to 'private' if the bulk
  UPDATE returned).
- Added coverage for `traces.hasAnyNewerThan` in
  `tests/unit/storage/repos.test.ts`.
