Gate House ruled binding.pdp_digest is the binding correspondence on the GH-DEC-2026-003 path and is required there, having rejected a vocabulary mapping for the reasons we gave. It asked this engine to record the PDP digest at issue for approvals intended for that path, and to have the claim state which approvals those are rather than leaving it to the requester's memory. Schema v3 adds approvals.pdp_path. create() refuses pdp_path true without a pdp_digest, so an approval that would be unusable on the path fails at issue rather than at the protected side effect. The claim exposes binding.pdp_path, which makes it a guarantee rather than a hint: pdp_path true implies pdp_digest is non-null. Intent is declared and never inferred. A pdp_digest that happens to be present is not a declaration anybody made, so a recorded digest alone leaves pdp_path false, legacy rows migrate to false rather than being back-filled from their digests, and a successor inherits its predecessor's declaration. Approvals issued before the ruling stay usable by consumers in this engine's own vocabulary and are simply not usable on the PDP path -- the ruling's intended cost, stated as such. Schema, both published examples, a v2-to-v3 migration test asserting survivors keep their digest while declaring no path intent, and tests for refusal at issue, claim exposure, non-inference, and successor inheritance. 102 tests pass (8 new).

# Storage operations
|
|
|
|
Production uses one SQLite writer on persistent `ReadWriteOnce` storage.
|
|
Production serve disables automatic migration and refuses schema drift or an
|
|
in-memory database.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
approval-engine migrate --db /data/approvals.sqlite
|
|
approval-engine verify --db /data/approvals.sqlite
|
|
approval-engine backup --db /data/approvals.sqlite --output /backup/approval.sqlite
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Migration is repeatable and sets an explicit `PRAGMA user_version`. Backup uses
|
|
SQLite's online backup API, verifies `PRAGMA integrity_check`, writes mode 0600,
|
|
and refuses to overwrite a target.
|
|
|
|
Restore is a stopped-single-writer operation:
|
|
|
|
1. Stop the StatefulSet and confirm no approval-engine or migration process has
|
|
the PVC open.
|
|
2. Preserve the failed database and its `-wal`/`-shm` companions for analysis.
|
|
3. Copy the verified backup to a new database path with owner 10001 and mode
|
|
0600. Do not merge a backup with old WAL files.
|
|
4. Run `verify`, then `migrate` if the release schema is newer, then `verify`
|
|
again.
|
|
5. Start exactly one replica and prove approval/entry/outbox counts, readiness,
|
|
claim retrieval, and idempotent audit drain before reopening callers.
|
|
|
|
Approval mutation and outbox insertion share `BEGIN IMMEDIATE` and one commit;
|
|
a failed outbox insert rolls the mutation back. Delivery occurs afterward and
|
|
does not roll back a committed mutation.
|
|
|
|
## Schema v3 — declared PDP-path intent
|
|
|
|
`GH-DEC-2026-008` added `approvals.pdp_path` (INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 0).
|
|
Migration is the usual additive `ALTER TABLE`; run `approval-engine migrate`
|
|
before a production start, which refuses an unmigrated store.
|
|
|
|
Legacy rows default to `0`. Intent is **not** back-filled from a recorded
|
|
`pdp_digest`: an approval issued before the ruling was never declared for the
|
|
PDP path, and inferring the declaration from an incidental digest would
|
|
manufacture a statement nobody made. Such approvals stay usable by consumers in
|
|
this engine's own vocabulary and are simply not usable on the PDP path — which
|
|
is the ruling's intended cost, not a migration defect.
