From ec9596228cd9b9bc25ce4952ad055bfd2db14743 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: hmziqagent Date: Tue, 28 Jul 2026 10:55:42 +0200 Subject: [PATCH 001/111] fix(web): stop horizontal overflow on mobile landing sections Three landing grids used `grid lg:grid-cols-[...]` with no base `grid-cols-1`, so the implicit column sized to max-content and wide children (a long tab label, a long code line, the event-log panel) inflated the page to ~622px on mobile, forcing horizontal scroll. - HookTabs: add base grid-cols-1; make the tab nav scroll (min-w-0 max-w-full overflow-x-auto) and keep buttons from compressing (shrink-0 whitespace-nowrap). The nav is a flex item of Basecoat's .tabs, so min-w-0 is required for overflow-x-auto to engage. - AnnotatedFigure: add base grid-cols-1 so the 
 scrolls instead of inflating its card to 529px.
- CacheDeck: add base grid-cols-1 so the event-log panel fits.
- architecture-section: `truncate` -> `sm:truncate` so the layer API list wraps on mobile instead of ellipsizing the content away.

Desktop (lg) layouts are unchanged. Verified at 390/360/320px: document scrollWidth now equals the viewport (no horizontal scroll), and `bun run build` passes.

Subject: [PATCH 002/111] ci: add Cloudflare Pages preview deploys on PRs
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Adds .github/workflows/web-preview.yml: on every PR push touching web/** (or shared/**), build web/ and publish an isolated Cloudflare Pages PREVIEW via `wrangler pages deploy dist/client --project-name=gpui-query --branch=pr-`, then post/update a sticky PR comment with the stable alias (pr-.gpui-query.pages.dev) and the unique deployment URL.

Production (master) is untouched — it still deploys only via deploy.yml. Fork PRs are skipped (no access to the Cloudflare secrets). Reuses the existing CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN / CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID. Validated with actionlint (clean).

Note: a pull_request workflow only fires once the file is on the base branch, so this must merge to master before subsequent web PRs get preview URLs.

-name: gpui-query
-description: Use when working IN the gpui-query codebase — adding or fixing query, mutation, caching, retry, persistence, HTTP-cache, or observer behavior; touching the core/client/hook layers or the http/persist satellite crates; or building, testing, documenting, or releasing the crates. Do not use for general GPUI app development; use it when the change is to this library itself.
----
-
-## What it is
-
-gpui-query is async state management for [GPUI](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/tree/main/crates/gpui), inspired by TanStack Query v5. You write a fetcher; the library caches, retries, deduplicates, invalidates, garbage-collects, and cooperatively cancels. Main crate `gpui-query` (v0.2.0); two satellites add HTTP cache-header handling (`gpui-query-http`) and a disk persistence adapter (`gpui-query-persist`).
-
-## Architecture
-
-Three layers in the main crate, each a Cargo feature, strictly additive; the public API is glob re-exported at the crate root so users write `gpui_query::use_query`.
-
-- **`core`** (`feature = "core"`) — serde-only state machine. `QueryResource`, `MutationResource`, `InfiniteQueryResource`, `CachePolicy`, `RetryPolicy`, `QueryKey`, `QuerySignal`, two-phase completion types. No GPUI dep — usable anywhere.
-- **`client`** (`feature = "client"`, the default) — `QueryClient`, a GPUI `Global` holding type-erased, type-partitioned buckets (`AHashMap>`). GC, bulk invalidate/cancel/reset/remove, observers, `PreparedFetch`, devtools diagnostics.
-- **`hook`** (`feature = "hook"`) — `use_query` / `use_mutation` / `use_infinite_query` / `use_query_select`, returning `(Entity, Subscription)`.
-- **`persist`** (`feature = "persist"`) — async `Persister` trait, `QueryClient::persist_with` debounced driver, free `hydrate()` fn, typed serializer registries.
-
-`lib.rs` exposes each layer as a `pub mod` plus a gated glob re-export: `pub use core::*;` / `pub use client::*;` / `pub use hook::*;` (the `client` glob carries `#[allow(ambiguous_glob_reexports)]` because `current_time_ms` is defined identically in both `client` and `hook`).
-
-Satellites: `gpui-query-http` depends on core-only (no GPUI); `gpui-query-persist` hard-depends on `persist+client+hook`.
-
-## Core state machine
-
-`QueryStatus` (derives serde; `Idle` default): `Idle`, `LoadingEmpty`, `LoadingWithData`, `Success`, `Failure`, `Cancelled`. Methods: `label()`, `is_loading()`, `is_pending()`.
-
-`CachePolicy` (derives serde; default `Ttl { ttl_ms: 60_000 }`):
-
-| Variant | Behavior | Freshness |
-|---|---|---|
-| `NoCache` | Always fetches. | `should_short_circuit_cache` = false |
-| `Ttl { ttl_ms }` | Serves fresh within TTL. | `is_cache_fresh` when `age <= ttl_ms` (INCLUSIVE boundary, unlike HTTP max-age) |
-| `StaleWhileRevalidate { ttl_ms, stale_ms }` | Stale window `[ttl, ttl+stale]` serves stale + background revalidate. | `should_serve_stale_and_revalidate` in that window |
-
-`QueryKey`: hierarchical key backed by `Arc<[Arc]>` (cheap clone). Serde-flexible — deserializes from a JSON array of strings OR a bare string. `starts_with` is segment-wise prefix (used by `QueryKeyFilter::Prefix`). `QueryKey::new` PANICS on an empty iterator — guard emptiness at the call site.
-
-`RetryPolicy`: all fields public (`max_retries`, `retry_delay_ms`, `exponential_backoff`, `max_retry_delay_ms`). Default = 3 retries, exponential backoff, 1s base, 30s configured cap, hard 1-hour ceiling. `delay_for_attempt` = `retry_delay_ms * 2^attempt` (shift clamped to 62, saturating mul). `QueryResource::new` starts with `RetryPolicy::no_retries()`; the hook layer installs the real policy.
-
-## Two-phase completion
-
-`begin_request[_with_id]` → `QueryBeginResult` (`Started` / `CacheHit` / `StaleCacheHit` / `IgnoredWhileLoading`) + `RequestId`. Caller fetches async, then `accept_current_request(id)` returns `Option` — `Some` only if `id` is still active, else `None` (stale result silently discarded). `complete_*(guard, ...)` consume the single-use `RequestGuard` by value. This is the authoritative stale-write guard: cancelled async work can never overwrite newer state.
-
-`RequestId` = `(NonZero scope, sequence)`; a per-resource `RequestSequencer` mints monotonic ids (scope advances on u64::MAX sequence). The `QueryClient` bucket keeps a co-located sequencer so ids stay unique across a resource's lifetime.
-
-## Hooks
-
-```rust
-pub fn use_query(
-    options: impl Into,
-    fetcher: F,
-    cx: &mut Context,
-) -> (Entity>, Subscription)
-where
-    F: Fn(QuerySignal) -> Fut + Send + 'static,
-    Fut: Future> + Send + 'static;
-```
-
-```rust
-pub fn use_mutation(
-    options: impl Into,
-    cx: &mut Context,
-) -> (Entity>, Subscription);   // use_mutation((), cx) works
-
-pub fn use_infinite_query(
-    options: InfiniteQueryOptions,
-    fetch_next: FNext,
-    cx: &mut Context,
-) -> (Entity>, Subscription)
-where
-    FNext: Fn(Option<&T>) -> Fut + 'static,
-    Fut: Future>;   // (page, has_more)
-```
-
-Every hook returns `(Entity, Subscription)` — both must be stored; dropping the `Subscription` kills the observation. (`use_query_select` returns a 3-tuple: mapped entity, source entity, two subscriptions.)
-
-Fetcher + signal contract: the fetcher receives a `QuerySignal` (shared `Arc`; cancelling any clone cancels all). Poll `signal.is_cancelled()` to abort early, but write rejection is owned by `accept_current_request` — do NOT rely on an `is_cancelled()` check after the fetch returns (TOCTOU). `use_query_with_policy`'s fetcher returns `Fetched` so a server-derived `CachePolicy` overrides the resource's on success (`Fetched::with_policy`, "server wins").
-
-Minimal example:
-
-```rust
-use gpui_query::{use_query, QueryClient};
-
-cx.set_global(QueryClient::new());
-
-let (entity, _sub) = use_query(
-    "users",
-    |signal| async move {
-        if signal.is_cancelled() { return Err(MyError::Cancelled); }
-        Ok::, MyError>(fetch_users().await?)
-    },
-    cx,
-);
-```
-
-Plain-query fetch tasks are `.detach()`ed (cooperative signal + `accept_current_request` prevent stale writes; the task self-terminates on entity drop). Mutations and infinite queries store the task via `set_current_task` so replacement/unmount HARD-aborts the prior task.
-
-## Observers
-
-A single generic `Observer` with aliases `QueryObserver` / `InfiniteQueryObserver` / `MutationObserver`. It holds a `Cell>` and calls `cx.notify()` ONLY when `observable_status()` changes — `increment_retry()` / `prepare_retry()` (stay `Loading`) and `set_current_task` do NOT re-render. Attach with `Observer::new(&entity).with_config(cfg).observe(cx) -> Option`.
-
-## Persistence
-
-Two tiers, both `persist`-gated, both defined in the MAIN crate (`gpui-query-persist` only ships the `FilePersister` adapter):
-
-- Legacy metadata-only: `QueryPersister` trait (sync, object-safe, `Vec`), `QueryClient::dehydrate` / `hydrate` (method — a NO-OP stub) / `persist` / `restore`. `DehydratedEntry` carries key + type_id + kind only — NO data field.
-- Value-carrying (use this): `Persister` trait (async, NON-object-safe — returns `impl Future`; monomorphized via `persist_with`), `PersistSnapshot` / `PersistedEntry` / `PersistError`. `QueryClient::persist_with(persister, opts, cx) -> PersistHandle` debounces saves off a `CacheMutation` marker Global; the free `hydrate()` fn re-primes the cache via registered deserializers.
-
-`FilePersister` (in `gpui-query-persist`) is an atomic, durable disk adapter: sibling `NamedTempFile` → fsync → macOS `F_FULLFSYNC` → rename over target → POSIX parent-dir fsync. Tolerant load: missing → empty snapshot, corrupt → logged + empty, version mismatch → typed `PersistError::VersionMismatch`. `PersistFormat::Json` (default) or `::Bincode`. It implements `Persister`, NOT `QueryPersister`.
-
-Register typed (de)serializers via `register_serializer::(fn(&T)->JsonValue)` / `register_deserializer::(fn(&JsonValue)->Option)`. `hydrate()` offers EVERY entry to EVERY deserializer (O(n×m)) — keep deserializers STRICT (return `None` for foreign shapes).
-
-## HTTP cache
-
-`gpui-query-http` derives a `CachePolicy` from RFC 9111 `Cache-Control` ("server wins") and layers an in-memory URL-keyed `HttpCache` for cheap 304 revalidations.
-
-- `cache_policy_from_headers(headers: &HeaderMap) -> Result` — `no-store`/`no-cache` short-circuits to `NoCache`; `s-maxage` overrides `max-age`; `stale-while-revalidate` → SWR. Absent/empty header → `Ok(NoCache)` (no Expires heuristic).
-- `HttpCache::fetch(url)` short-circuits on fresh entries; otherwise a conditional GET carries `If-None-Match` (ETag) / `If-Modified-Since`; a 304 re-serves the cached body, a 200 parses headers and stores fresh. Only 200s are stored.
-- Hand the result to `Fetched::with_policy(data, policy)` inside a `use_query_with_policy` fetcher.
-- `ReqwestBackend` is behind the OFF-by-default `reqwest` feature (rustls-tls only; no cookies/compression). `HttpBackend` is non-object-safe (static dispatch via `HttpCache`); guards are never held across an `.await`.
-
-## Common tasks
-
-- Add a feature flag: add to `crates/gpui-query/Cargo.toml` `[features]`, gate the module in `lib.rs` with `#[cfg(feature = "...")]` + `#[cfg_attr(docsrs, doc(cfg(feature=...)))]`, glob re-export at the crate root.

-
-## Gotchas
-
-- WeakEntity retention: async tasks capture `entity.downgrade()`. If the owning component unmounts mid-fetch, the result is silently discarded (`weak.upgrade()` = `None`). Mutation `on_settled(None, None)` still fires on drop as a safety net.
-- Notify only on status changes: `Observer` calls `cx.notify()` only when `observable_status()` changes. `increment_retry` / `prepare_retry` / `set_current_task` do NOT re-render.
-- Signal cancellation on LatestWins replacement: `begin_loading` cancels the OLD signal before installing a fresh one, so a superseded fetcher observes `is_cancelled()`. The authoritative stale-write guard is `accept_current_request` returning `None`.
-- Inclusive TTL boundary: `age <= ttl_ms` is fresh (opposite of HTTP `max-age`). Watch for off-by-one at the boundary.
-- Bounded `max_pages` default: `InfiniteQueryResource` caps at `Some(50)` pages. `FetchDirection::ForwardOnly` (default) starts `has_next_page=true` as an assumption — use `new_bidirectional()` if the fetcher's `has_more` should drive fetching.
-- Mutation GC actually runs: `gc_time_ms` default is 300_000 (explicit `Default` impl; the derived one produced 0, which DISABLED GC). `with_gc_time(0)` still disables GC; values < 1000 are clamped.
-- AHashMap cache keys: `QueryClient` buckets use `AHashMap` (~2x faster, trusted keys). `SerializerRegistry` is keyed by `TypeId::of::()` ALONE, not `(T,E)` — registering the same `T` under two `E`s overwrites.
-- macOS Metal toolchain: building `client`/`hook`/`persist` (anything pulling `gpui`) fails without the Metal Toolchain. Run `xcodebuild -downloadComponent MetalToolchain` once. Core-only builds need nothing.
-- Cache-mutation dirty signal: `cx.default_global::()` is bumped at every cache-mutation site (`set_query_data`, `PreparedFetch` completions, hook completions); `persist_with`'s `observe_global` reacts to it.
-- `QueryError` messages are stored verbatim and surface in Display/Debug/serde. Use the typed constructors (`response` / `transport` / `cancelled`) to preserve category, and `sanitized()` (redacts tokens/paths/emails, truncates to 512 bytes) before constructing from untrusted server data.

+name: gpui-query-extensions
+description: Use when adding HTTP cache-header handling (RFC 9111 Cache-Control -> CachePolicy, HttpCache, ReqwestBackend, conditional GETs/304s) or durable disk persistence (FilePersister, async Persister trait, persist_with debounced driver, hydrate, typed serializer/deserializer registries) to a gpui-query app. Do not use for the essential in-memory cache alone, for general GPUI app work, or for editing the gpui-query crates themselves (see AGENTS.md for crate-internal work).
+---
+
+# gpui-query extensions: HTTP caching & disk persistence
+
+The main crate ships an in-memory, type-partitioned cache with GC, invalidation, and TTL/SWR policies. Two **satellite crates** + one **main-crate feature** add cross-restart durability and server-driven HTTP cache semantics. Everything here is strictly additive over `client`.
+
+- `gpui-query-http` (v0.1.0) — RFC 9111 `Cache-Control` → `CachePolicy` ("server wins"), plus a URL-keyed in-memory `HttpCache` for cheap `304` revalidations. **GPUI-free** (depends on `core` only).
+- `gpui-query-persist` (v0.1.0) — reference atomic-durable `FilePersister`.
+- main crate `persist` feature — the async `Persister` trait, `persist_with` debounced driver, `hydrate`, and the typed serializer/deserializer registries.
+
+Reach for these when:
+- the app should **survive a restart** with its cached data primed (cold start shows last-known-good instead of a loading spinner);
+- a query fetches over **HTTP** and you want the server's `max-age`/`stale-while-revalidate` to drive the resource's `CachePolicy`, and `ETag`/`Last-Modified` to make refetches cheap.
+
+Do NOT reach for them for ephemeral in-memory state, or if you only need client-side TTLs the app controls itself (use `CachePolicy` directly on the resource).
+
+## Install
+
+```toml
+[dependencies]
+gpui      = "0.2.2"
+gpui-query = { version = "0.2.0", features = ["persist"] }   # enables persist layer
+
+# HTTP cache (optional reqwest backend):
+gpui-query-http = { version = "0.1", features = ["reqwest"] } # drop "reqwest" to use your own HttpBackend
+
+# Reference disk persister:
+gpui-query-persist = "0.1"
+```
+
+The `persist` feature is `client + hook + dep:serde_json + dep:thiserror`. `gpui-query-persist` hard-depends on `persist + client + hook`. `gpui-query-http`'s `reqwest` feature pulls `reqwest = { version = "0.12", default-features = false, features = ["rustls-tls"] }`. With `default-features = false`, reqwest drops its own defaults (`default-tls` = native-tls, plus `charset`, `http2`, `macos-system-configuration`) and only rustls TLS is added back. Cookies and gzip/brotli/deflate compression are opt-in reqwest features that were **never** on by default — enable them on your own `reqwest::Client` if you need them.
+
+macOS note: building `client`/`hook`/`persist` needs the Metal Toolchain once (`xcodebuild -downloadComponent MetalToolchain`). `gpui-query-http` (core-only) needs nothing extra.
+
+---
+
+## Persistence mental model
+
+```
+register (de)serializers  ──►  hydrate() at cold start  ──►  persist_with() reacts to cache writes
+        (TypeId-keyed)           (load snapshot,                  (debounced save on every
+                                 re-prime concrete T)              CacheMutation bump)
+```
+
+1. **Register** a serializer and deserializer per resource data type `T`. Only resources with a registered serializer are emitted into the snapshot; unregistered types fall back to metadata-only (skipped).
+2. **`hydrate()`** at startup: load the snapshot, offer each on-disk entry to every registered deserializer, prime matches via `set_query_data::`.
+3. **`persist_with()`**: install a drop-guard driver. Every `CacheMutation` bump (a query/mutation resolving, `set_query_data`, `invalidate`, GC eviction) collects a fresh snapshot on the main thread, stashes it in a single pending slot, and spawns a debounced `save` on GPUI's `background_executor`. Bursts coalesce — only the latest snapshot survives the window.
+
+The snapshot value is an opaque `serde_json::Value`; the typed round-trip is driven by the registries, so core never needs a `T: Serialize` bound.
+
+---
+
+## Persister trait + snapshot types
+
+Main crate, `gpui_query::client::*` (re-exported at the crate root via `pub use client::*`).
+
+```rust
+pub const PERSIST_VERSION: u32 = 1;
+
+#[derive(Debug, thiserror::Error)]
+pub enum PersistError {
+    #[error("persistence io error: {0}")]
+    Io(#[from] std::io::Error),
+    #[error("persistence serialize error: {0}")]
+    Serialize(#[from] serde_json::Error),
+    #[error("persistence deserialize error: {0}")]
+    Deserialize(String),                 // reserved for backends that surface parse errors
+    #[error("persistence version mismatch: expected {expected}, found {found}")]
+    VersionMismatch { expected: u32, found: u32 },
+    #[error("persistence bad path: {0}")]
+    BadPath(String),
+    #[error("persistence permission denied: {0}")]
+    Permission(String),                  // retryable (Windows AV / lock contention)
+}
+
+#[derive(Clone, Debug, serde::Serialize, serde::Deserialize)]
+pub struct PersistedEntry {
+    pub value: serde_json::Value,        // opaque; typed round-trip via registries
+    pub cached_at: u64,                  // wall-clock ms since UNIX epoch
+    pub cache_policy: CachePolicy,
+    pub meta: Option, // reserved for HTTP CacheMeta, etc.
+}
+
+#[derive(Clone, Debug, Default, serde::Serialize, serde::Deserialize)]
+pub struct PersistSnapshot {
+    pub entries: std::collections::HashMap, // keyed by QueryKey::to_path()
+    pub version: u32,
+}
+impl PersistSnapshot { pub fn new() -> Self { /* empty, at PERSIST_VERSION */ } }
+```
+
+The trait is **async + non-object-safe** (methods return `impl Future + Send`, not `Pin>`). It is consumed generically by `persist_with`, which monomorphizes the driver around the concrete `P`. This keeps `Send + 'static` visible at the call site (the save future runs on GPUI's `background_executor`) and avoids boxed-future overhead. Consequence: you cannot hold a `dyn Persister`.
+
+```rust
+pub trait Persister: Send + Sync + 'static {
+    fn load(&self) -> impl Future> + Send;
+    fn save(&self, snapshot: &PersistSnapshot)
+        -> impl Future> + Send;
+}
+```
+
+`PersistHandle` is the drop-guard returned by `persist_with`. Holding it keeps the `CacheMutation` observation (and thus the debounced save loop) alive; **dropping it drops the `Subscription`**, so no new saves are scheduled. A save already parked on its debounce timer is detached and may still complete one final save. `PersistHandle::empty()` constructs a no-op handle (tests).
+
+---
+
+## persist_with + PersistOptions
+
+```rust
+impl QueryClient {
+    pub fn persist_with(
+        &self,
+        persister: P,                    // wrapped in Arc
 internally
+        opts: PersistOptions,
+        cx: &mut gpui::App,
+    ) -> PersistHandle;
+}
+```
+
+| `PersistOptions` field | type | default |
+|---|---|---|
+| `filter` | `PersistFilter` | `PersistFilter::All` |
+| `max_age` | `std::time::Duration` | `Duration::from_secs(24 * 60 * 60)` (24h); entries older than this at save time are skipped |
+| `debounce` | `std::time::Duration` | `Duration::from_millis(500)`; `Duration::ZERO` disables the timer window (saves still serialize through the drain slot) |
+
+```rust
+#[derive(Clone, Debug)]
+pub enum PersistFilter {       // owned counterpart to core's borrowing QueryKeyFilter<'a>
+    Exact(QueryKey),           // only this key
+    Prefix(QueryKey),          // every key that starts with this prefix
+    All,                       // every persistable entry
+}
+impl PersistFilter { pub fn matches(&self, key: &QueryKey) -> bool; }
+```
+
+The observer callback collects a snapshot on the main thread (cheap; has `&App`), stashes it in a shared `Mutex>` slot (replacing any pending one), then spawns a debounced task on the `background_executor` that, after `opts.debounce`, drains the slot and runs `persister.save`. An `armed` flag bounds in-flight tasks to one per window — a bump arriving while a task is already armed skips spawning (its snapshot still lands in the slot, drained by the armed task). Latest snapshot wins.
+
+---
+
+## hydrate + the registries
+
+```rust
+pub async fn hydrate(
+    client: &mut QueryClient,
+    persister: &P,
+    filter: &PersistFilter,
+    max_age: Duration,
+    cx: &mut gpui::App,
+) -> Result;
+```
+
+Loads the snapshot, double-checks `version == PERSIST_VERSION` (returns `VersionMismatch` otherwise), then for **every** registered deserializer walks **every** entry and lets the step decode + prime it. Returns the post-filter snapshot so you can do additional metadata-only priming or diagnostics.
+
+> Name collision: there is also a legacy `QueryClient::hydrate(&mut self, _state, _cx)` **method** (metadata-only, no-op stub — see Legacy tier below). The value-carrying primitive is the **free function** `hydrate(...)`.
+
+```rust
+impl QueryClient {
+    pub fn register_serializer(&mut self, f: fn(&T) -> serde_json::Value)
+    where T: Clone + Send + Sync + 'static, E: Clone + Send + Sync + 'static;
+
+    pub fn register_deserializer(&mut self, deserialize: fn(&serde_json::Value) -> Option)
+    where T: Clone + Send + Sync + 'static, E: Clone + Send + Sync + 'static;
+
+    pub fn collect_persist_snapshot(
+        &self, filter: &PersistFilter, max_age: Duration, cx: &gpui::App,
+    ) -> PersistSnapshot;
+}
+```
+
+- `f`/`deserialize` are **plain `fn` pointers** (not closures) — `Send + Sync + 'static` with no boxing at the call site. The registry boxes each pointer internally (`Box` / `Arc`) for type-erased storage — one allocation per registered type, not per save.
+- `SerializerRegistry` keys on `TypeId::of::()` alone (not `(T, E)`), because the bucket impls look up by `T`. Serialization depends only on the data type. **Registering two serializers for the same `T` under different `E` silently overwrites** (last wins); whichever survives applies to both `(T, E)` buckets, which is correct because the value *is* that `T`.
+- `DeserializerRegistry` is a `Vec<(TypeId, step)>`. **`hydrate` offers each entry to every deserializer** — O(deserializers × entries). There is no type discriminator on `PersistedEntry`, so routing is by trial.
+- **Strict-deserializer contract:** a deserializer MUST return `None` for any JSON shape it does not recognize as its own `T`. A lax decoder that accepts a foreign shape wastes work and can mis-prime. Keep them strict and cheap (`v.as_str().map(...)` for a string, `serde_json::from_value(v).ok()` for a struct).
+
+---
+
+## FilePersister (gpui-query-persist)
+
+```rust
+pub enum PersistFormat { Json, Bincode }   // Json default; Bincode smaller/faster, not human-readable
+
+pub struct FilePersister { /* path, format, write_lock: Mutex<()> */ }
+
+impl FilePersister {
+    pub fn new(path: impl Into, format: PersistFormat) -> Self;
+    pub fn json(path: impl Into) -> Self;                       // = new(_, Json)
+    pub fn bincode(path: impl Into) -> Self;                    // = new(_, Bincode)
+    pub fn in_cache_dir(app_name: impl AsRef) -> Result; // dirs::cache_dir/app/gpui-query-cache.json (Json)
+    pub fn path(&self) -> &Path;
+}
+impl Persister for FilePersister { async fn load(&self) -> Result; async fn save(&self, &PersistSnapshot) -> Result<(), PersistError>; }
+```
+
+**Atomic durable write** (`save`): ensure parent dir → serialize → write to a sibling `tempfile::NamedTempFile` → `sync_all` (fsync) → on macOS issue `F_FULLFSYNC` (flushes the drive's own cache; best-effort, logged on failure) → `tempfile`'s `.persist()` renames over the target (`rename(2)` POSIX / `MoveFileEx` Windows) → on POSIX, fsync the **parent directory** so the rename is durable across power loss. Writes serialize through an internal `Mutex`, so concurrent `save` calls from the background executor never interleave temp-file lifecycles.
+
+**Tolerant load** (`load`):
+
+| On-disk state | Result |
+|---|---|
+| Missing file | empty snapshot (no error) |
+| Corrupt / unparseable | logged via `eprintln!` + **empty snapshot** (no panic) |
+| `version != PERSIST_VERSION` | `Err(PersistError::VersionMismatch { expected, found })` — typed, so you can distinguish corrupt from wrong-format |
+| Valid | decoded snapshot |
+
+**Error mapping:** Windows `ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED` during the atomic replace (antivirus / concurrent reader) maps to `PersistError::Permission` (retryable — back off and retry). Every other IO failure is `PersistError::Io` with the original `std::io::Error` (kind + source chain intact).
+
+`save`/`load` do **synchronous `std::fs` I/O** in their async bodies — intended for GPUI's `background_executor` (a blocking-friendly pool). On a tokio multi-thread runtime, wrap in `spawn_blocking`. **Bincode format** JSON-encodes each entry's `value` to a `String` inside a bincode-safe adapter (bincode can't drive `serde_json::Value`'s `deserialize_any`); the conversion is lossless.
+
+`pub use gpui_query::client::NoopPersister;` is re-exported from this crate as a one-stop default/test persister.

+

+struct Users(Vec);
+
+// Global so the bootstrap task can install the client before any view reads it.
+struct ClientGlobal(QueryClient);
+impl Global for ClientGlobal;
+
+fn bootstrap(cx: &mut App) {
+    let mut client = QueryClient::new();
+
+    // 1. Register a (de)serializer for each T you want to round-trip.
+    client.register_serializer::(|u| serde_json::to_value(u).unwrap());
+    client.register_deserializer::(|v| serde_json::from_value(v.clone()).ok());
+
+    let persister = FilePersister::json("/var/cache/myapp/gpui-query-cache.json");
+    let max_age = Duration::from_secs(60 * 60 * 24);
+    let filter = PersistFilter::All;
+
+    // 2. Cold start: hydrate primes the live cache from disk. Block on it from
+    //    a background task; GPUI's background_executor is blocking-friendly.
+    cx.background_executor().spawn({
+        let persister = persister; // FilePersister is Send + Sync + Clone-free
+        async move {
+            // NOTE: hydrate needs &mut QueryClient + &mut App — drive it in a
+            // cx.update_global lease, not detached across an await holding a guard.
+        }
+    }).detach();
+
+    cx.set_global(ClientGlobal(client));
+
+    // (Hydrate must run inside a global lease that owns &mut App. The typical
+    // shape is a blocking `cx.run` / `block_on` for the ready load, or a
+    // spawn that re-enters via update_global. See the hydrate signature above.)
+
+    // 3. Install the debounced save driver. Hold the handle for the app lifetime.
+    let _handle = cx.update_global::(|ClientGlobal(client), cx| {
+        client.persist_with(
+            persister,
+            PersistOptions { filter, max_age, ..PersistOptions::default() },
+            cx,
+        )
+    });
+}
+```
+
+Then a consuming component fetches as usual; a real fetch completion bumps `CacheMutation`, which the driver observes and saves:
+
+```rust
+fn render_users(cx: &mut gpui::Context) {
+    let (entity, _sub) = use_query_with_policy::(
+        QueryOptions::new(["users", "all"])
+            .cache_policy(CachePolicy::Ttl { ttl_ms: 60_000 })
+            .request_policy(RequestPolicy::LatestWins),
+        |signal| async move {
+            let resp: Vec = fetch_users().await?;          // your async
+            if signal.is_cancelled() { return Err(QueryError::cancelled("aborted")); }
+            Ok(Fetched::new(Users(resp)))
+        },
+        cx,
+    );
+    // entity.read(cx).data() / .status() ...
+}
+# async fn fetch_users() -> Result, QueryError> { Ok(vec![]) }
+```
+
+Both `use_query` completions and `use_mutation` / `use_infinite_query` first-page completions bump the dirty signal; the imperative `prepare_fetch_query().complete_success(...)` path bumps it too, so nothing fetched through the public API is invisible to the driver.

+## HTTP cache mental model
+
+```
+response headers ──► cache_policy_from_headers() ──► CachePolicy ──► Fetched::with_policy()
+                                              │
+                       HttpCache in-memory layer over HttpBackend
+                       (fresh short-circuit, conditional GET, 304 re-serve)
+```
+
+Two independent pieces:
+
+1. **`cache_policy_from_headers`** — pure header → `CachePolicy` ("server wins"). Hand the result to `Fetched::with_policy(data, policy)` so the resource adopts the server's TTL.
+2. **`HttpCache`** — a URL-keyed in-memory layer over any `HttpBackend`. Fresh entries short-circuit the network; stale entries revalidate with `If-None-Match` / `If-Modified-Since`; a `304` re-serves the cached body without transferring a new one. This is the cheap-revalidation cache that lives *inside* your fetcher, orthogonal to gpui-query's own resource cache.
+
+`CacheMeta` is `Serialize + Deserialize` so a future persistence layer can store it alongside the body and rehydrate a cold start with valid `ETag`s — enabling cheap `304` refetches on the first request after launch. It uses `SystemTime` (epoch-relative, serde-supported), **never** `Instant` (no serde, meaningless across restarts).
+
+---
+
+## cache_policy_from_headers rules
+
+```rust
+pub fn cache_policy_from_headers(headers: &http::HeaderMap)
+    -> Result;
+```
+
+Priority order (from [RFC 9111]):
+
+1. **`no-store` / `no-cache`** (any value, including bare) → `CachePolicy::NoCache`. Short-circuits immediately — a malformed trailing directive (e.g. `no-store, max-age=abc`) does NOT surface a parse error.
+2. **`s-maxage=N`** (shared-cache directive) takes precedence over `max-age=N` when both present. The chosen TTL yields `CachePolicy::Ttl { ttl_ms: N*1000 }`. If `stale-while-revalidate=M` is also present, yields `CachePolicy::StaleWhileRevalidate { ttl_ms, stale_ms: M*1000 }` instead.
+3. **Otherwise** → `CachePolicy::NoCache`. There is **no `Expires`-based heuristic** (reserved for a later addition).
+
+Directive names are matched **case-insensitively**; values may be quoted (`max-age="600"`). Multiple `Cache-Control` headers combine. Other directives (`public`, `private`, …) are ignored unless they map to a rule above.
+
+`ParseError { InvalidMaxAge(String), InvalidStaleWhileRevalidate(String) }` — only a malformed TTL value (e.g. `max-age=abc`) produces an error; wrap with `.unwrap_or(CachePolicy::NoCache)` to degrade gracefully.
+
+[RFC 9111]: https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9111
+
+```rust
+let policy = cache_policy_from_headers(&resp.headers).unwrap_or(CachePolicy::NoCache);
+let fetched = Fetched::with_policy(data, policy);
+```
+
+---
+
+## HttpBackend + HttpCache flow
+
+```rust
+pub struct Conditionals {
+    pub if_none_match: Option,      // from a cached ETag
+    pub if_modified_since: Option,  // from a cached Last-Modified
+}
+impl Conditionals { pub fn from_meta(meta: Option<&CacheMeta>) -> Self; }
+
+pub struct BackendResponse {
+    pub status: u16,
+    pub headers: http::HeaderMap,
+    pub body: bytes::Bytes,                 // owned, outlives the connection
+}
+
+pub trait HttpBackend: Send + Sync {
+    type Error: std::error::Error + Send + Sync + 'static;
+    fn fetch(&self, url: &str, conditionals: Conditionals)
+        -> impl Future> + Send;
+}
+```
+
+The trait uses `-> impl Future + Send` (not `async fn`) so the future is guaranteed `Send` for any executor. This makes it **non-object-safe** — dispatch is static via `HttpCache`, no `dyn`/`Pin>` overhead.
+
+```rust
+pub struct HttpCache { /* backend + two Mutex */ }
+
+impl HttpCache {
+    pub fn new(backend: B) -> Self;
+    pub async fn fetch(&self, url: &str)
+        -> Result<(bytes::Bytes, CachePolicy, Option), HttpError>;
+}
+```
+
+`fetch` branches:
+
+| Branch | Behavior |
+|---|---|
+| **Fresh hit** (`stored_at + fresh_for > now`) | return cached body immediately; **backend never called** |
+| Stale / first fetch | build `Conditionals::from_meta(cached)`, call `backend.fetch` |
+| **`304 Not Modified`** | re-serve cached body + stored policy/meta; `Err(NotModifiedWithoutCachedBody)` if no cached body exists |
+| **`200 OK`** | parse policy via `cache_policy_from_headers`; if `NoCache`, serve body + store nothing; else store body + meta, return fresh triple |
+| Any other status | return body + `CachePolicy::NoCache` + `None`; nothing stored |
+
+Only `200`s with a cacheable policy populate the cache. `meta` is `None` only for non-cacheable responses.
+
+```rust
+#[derive(Debug, thiserror::Error)]
+pub enum HttpError {
+    #[error("backend request failed")]
+    Backend { #[source] source: Box },
+    #[error(transparent)]
+    InvalidPolicy(#[from] ParseError),
+    #[error("received 304 without a cached body for {url:?}")]
+    NotModifiedWithoutCachedBody { url: String },
+    #[error("cache mutex poisoned")]
+    Poisoned,
+}
+```
+
+**Concurrency:** state is guarded by two `std::sync::Mutex`es (one for meta, one for bodies). A guard is acquired, the needed value is **cloned out, and the guard dropped before any `.await` point** — so the cache never holds a `std` mutex across `.await`. It is `Send + Sync` and requires **no tokio** (works on GPUI's `background_executor`, tokio, or anything else).
+
+`CacheMeta` round-trips through persistence: a non-zero `stale_for` reconstructs `StaleWhileRevalidate`, a non-zero `fresh_for` reconstructs `Ttl`, both-zero collapses to `NoCache` (mirroring `fresh_for_from_policy` / `stale_for_from_policy`).
+
+---
+
+## ReqwestBackend
+
+Behind the `reqwest` cargo feature (`gpui-query-http = { features = ["reqwest"] }`):
+
+```rust
+pub struct ReqwestBackend(pub reqwest::Client);
+
+impl ReqwestBackend {
+    pub fn from_client(client: reqwest::Client) -> Self;   // for custom TLS/timeouts/proxies
+}
+impl HttpBackend for ReqwestBackend {
+    type Error = reqwest::Error;
+    fn fetch(&self, url: &str, conditionals: Conditionals)
+        -> impl Future> + Send;
+}
+```
+
+The request is built **synchronously** (no `.await`) — `If-None-Match` / `If-Modified-Since` attached when present — then the `send` + `bytes()` half is returned as a `Send` future. This eager build keeps the future `Send` even where `reqwest::RequestBuilder` is `!Send`. The client is reused across requests (configure TLS provider, timeouts, proxies on the `reqwest::Client` before wrapping).
+
+`reqwest` is *one* possible backend. Any client that can do a conditional `GET` and produce status + headers + body can `impl HttpBackend` and feed `HttpCache::new`.
+
+---
+
+## Full HTTP example: HttpCache inside a with_policy fetcher
+
+```rust
+use gpui_query::core::{CachePolicy, Fetched, QueryError};
+use gpui_query::hook::{use_query_with_policy, QueryOptions};
+use gpui_query_http::{HttpCache, ReqwestBackend, cache_policy_from_headers};
+use serde::{Deserialize, Serialize};
+
+#[derive(Clone, Debug, Serialize, Deserialize)]
+struct Release { tag: String }
+
+// One cache per app, shared across fetchers. Wrap it in an `Arc` — `HttpCache`
+// is NOT `Clone` (it holds `Mutex`s), so clone the `Arc`, not the cache.
+fn http_cache() -> std::sync::Arc> {
+    std::sync::Arc::new(HttpCache::new(ReqwestBackend::from_client(reqwest::Client::new())))
+}
+
+fn fetch_releases(cx: &mut gpui::Context) {
+    let cache = http_cache();
+    let (entity, _sub) = use_query_with_policy::(
+        QueryOptions::new(["releases", "latest"]),
+        move |_signal| {
+            let cache = cache.clone();     // cheap Arc clone — one per fetch invocation
+            async move {
+                // 1. HttpCache.fetch handles fresh short-circuit / 304 revalidation.
+                let (body, policy, meta) = cache
+                    .fetch("https://api.example.com/releases/latest")
+                    .await
+                    .map_err(|e| QueryError::transport(format!("http: {e}")))?;
+
+                let release: Release = serde_json::from_slice(&body)
+                    .map_err(|e| QueryError::unknown(format!("decode: {e}")))?;
+
+                // 2. Server wins: adopt the response's CachePolicy.
+                let mut fetched = Fetched::with_policy(release, policy);
+
+                // 3. (persist feature) Carry CacheMeta so the next cold start
+                //    can issue a conditional GET immediately.
+                if let Some(m) = meta {
+                    fetched = fetched.with_meta(serde_json::to_value(m).unwrap());
+                }
+                Ok(fetched)
+            }
+        },
+        cx,
+    );
+    // entity.read(cx) ...
+}
+```
+
+`Fetched` API:
+
+```rust
+impl Fetched {
+    pub fn new(data: T) -> Self;                          // keep the caller's policy
+    pub fn with_policy(data: T, policy: CachePolicy) -> Self;  // override with server's
+    #[cfg(feature = "persist")]
+    pub fn with_meta(mut self, meta: serde_json::Value) -> Self; // attach CacheMeta etc.
+}
+```
+
+`Fetched::with_meta` requires the `persist` feature; the `meta` flows into `PersistedEntry::meta` when the resource is persisted, enabling cold-start revalidation.
+
+---
+
+## Legacy tier (metadata-only) — steer away
+
+Alongside the value-carrying `Persister`, the main crate retains an older **metadata-only** persistence API (also gated behind `persist`), kept for back-compat. It carries **no data**:
+
+```rust
+#[cfg(feature = "persist")]
+pub trait QueryPersister: Send + Sync {
+    fn load(&self) -> Vec;
+    fn save(&self, entries: Vec);
+}
+
+#[cfg(feature = "persist")]
+pub struct DehydratedEntry { pub key: String, pub type_id: std::any::TypeId, pub kind: &'static str }
+```
+
+And on `QueryClient`:
+
+| Method | Behavior |
+|---|---|
+| `dehydrate(&self, cx: &App) -> DehydratedState` | collects key + `TypeId` + kind of `Success` entries only (**no data**) |
+| `hydrate(&mut self, _state, _cx)` | **no-op stub** — body is empty; callers must iterate and `set_query_data` themselves |
+| `persist(&self, &dyn QueryPersister, cx)` | dehydrates + saves entries (metadata-only) |
+| `restore(persister: &dyn QueryPersister) -> Vec` | associated fn (no `&self`); loads raw entries |
+
+Prefer the **value-carrying** `Persister` + `persist_with` + free-fn `hydrate` for any new code — it round-trips real data through the serializer/deserializer registries. The legacy types exist only to avoid breaking the old `dehydrate`/`hydrate`/`persist`/`restore` surface.
+
+---
+
+## Gotchas
+
+- **Strict deserializers are load-bearing.** `hydrate` offers every on-disk entry to every registered deserializer (O(n × m), no type discriminator). A permissive decoder that accepts a foreign shape will mis-prime the wrong bucket. Return `None` for anything that isn't unambiguously your `T`.
+- **TypeId-only registry overwrites.** `register_serializer::` then `register_serializer::` for the same `T` silently overwrites — both are keyed on `TypeId::of::()`. Last write wins, and it applies to both `(T, E)` buckets. This is correct (the value *is* that `T`) but surprises people expecting per-`(T, E)` keying.
+- **Non-object-safe traits.** `Persister` and `HttpBackend` both return `impl Future + Send` and are consumed generically (`persist_with`, `HttpCache`). You cannot `Box` or `Box` — use an `enum` of backends or generic plumbing instead.
+- **Mutex guards never cross `.await`.** Both `HttpCache` and `FilePersister` acquire a `std::sync::Mutex`, clone the value out, and drop the guard before yielding. If you write your own `Persister`/`HttpBackend`, do the same — holding a `std` mutex across `.await` is undefined behavior (the future is `Send` but the guard often is not) and trips on some runtimes.
+- **Only `200`s are cached.** A `304` re-serves a *prior* `200` body; a `304` with no cached body is `Err(NotModifiedWithoutCachedBody)`. `no-store`/`no-cache` and non-`200`/`304` statuses store nothing.
+- **`no-store` short-circuits parsing.** `no-store, max-age=abc` returns `Ok(NoCache)` — the malformed `max-age` is never reached. Only a malformed TTL *without* a preceding `no-store`/`no-cache` yields `InvalidMaxAge`.
+- **macOS Metal Toolchain.** Building `client`/`hook`/`persist` (so, the persist feature and `gpui-query-persist`) fails on macOS without it: run `xcodebuild -downloadComponent MetalToolchain` once. `gpui-query-http` (core-only) is unaffected.
+- **`PersistHandle` drop stops *new* saves.** A save already parked on its debounce timer is detached and may still complete once after you drop the handle. Keep the handle for the app lifetime (store it on a long-lived view/entity) if you want continuous persistence.
+- **`Debounced saves use GPUI's timer.** In tests, the mock clock does not advance on `run_until_parked`; use `cx.background_executor().advance_clock(debounce + ε)` to mature the timer, or set `debounce: Duration::ZERO` for immediate saves.

+name: gpui-query
+description: Use when building a GPUI app that depends on gpui-query (v0.2.0) — writing use_query / use_mutation / use_infinite_query / use_query_select hooks; configuring in-memory CachePolicy (NoCache/Ttl/StaleWhileRevalidate) or RetryPolicy; constructing QueryKey / QueryKeyFilter; calling QueryClient for fetch_query / prefetch / set_query_data / invalidate_queries / cancel_queries / reset_queries / remove_queries; wiring cx.set_global(QueryClient::new()); or debugging observer re-render / stale-write / GC behavior. Do NOT use for general GPUI app work that does not involve gpui-query, for the HTTP-cache/disk-persistence satellites (use the gpui-query-extensions skill), or for editing the gpui-query crate itself (see AGENTS.md for crate-internal work).
+---
+
+# gpui-query (essential)
+
+Async state management for [GPUI](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/tree/main/crates/gpui), inspired by TanStack Query v5. You write a fetcher; the library caches, retries, deduplicates, invalidates, garbage-collects, and cooperatively cancels. Crate: `gpui-query` v0.2.0. This skill covers the in-memory core/client/hook tiers (persistence and HTTP-cache satellites are separate).
+
+## Install
+
+Three strictly-additive tiers, glob re-exported at the crate root (`pub use core::*; pub use client::*; pub use hook::*;`) — import everything from `gpui_query::`.
+
+| Tier | Cargo line | What you get |
+|---|---|---|
+| core only (no GPUI) | `gpui-query = { version = "0.2.0", default-features = false, features = ["core"] }` | `QueryResource` state machine, `CachePolicy`, `RetryPolicy`, `QueryKey`, `QuerySignal`. Zero GPUI dep — usable in non-GPUI libs. |
+| client (DEFAULT) | `gpui-query = "0.2.0"` | + `QueryClient` GPUI `Global`: type-partitioned buckets, GC, bulk invalidate/cancel/reset/remove, observers, `PreparedFetch`. |
+| hooks | `gpui-query = { version = "0.2.0", features = ["hook"] }` | + `use_query` / `use_mutation` / `use_infinite_query` / `use_query_select`. |
+
+The `client` tier pulls `gpui = "0.2.2"`. macOS builds of any tier with GPUI need the Metal Toolchain installed once: `xcodebuild -downloadComponent MetalToolchain` (core-only builds need nothing).
+
+## Mental model
+
+**Two-phase fetch lifecycle.** Every fetch is gated by a monotonic `RequestId` minted per-resource by a `RequestSequencer` co-located in the bucket. The lifecycle:
+
+1. `begin_request` → `QueryBeginResult` (`Started { request_id, .. }` | `CacheHit` | `StaleCacheHit { request_id, .. }` | `IgnoredWhileLoading`). Transitions status to `LoadingEmpty`/`LoadingWithData` and installs a fresh `QuerySignal`.
+2. Caller fetches async (cooperative: poll `signal.is_cancelled()` to abort early).
+3. `accept_current_request(request_id) -> Option` — `Some` ONLY if `request_id` is still the active one. A superseded fetch gets `None`.
+4. `complete_success(guard, data, now_ms)` / `complete_failure(guard, error, now_ms)` consume the single-use `RequestGuard` by value.
+
+**`RequestGuard` is the authoritative stale-write protection.** A cancelled or superseded async task can `accept` → `None` and its result is silently discarded. Do NOT rely on a `signal.is_cancelled()` check after the fetch returns (TOCTOU window) — the guard is what guarantees correctness. The hooks wrap all of this for you; you only touch `accept`/`complete` directly via `fetch_query_with_signal` or `PreparedFetch`.
+
+**Status states** (`QueryStatus`, `#[derive(Default)]` so `Idle` is the start):
+
+```
+Idle → LoadingEmpty → Success | Failure
+Success → LoadingWithData → Success | Failure   (refetch)
+```
+
+- `is_loading()` = `LoadingEmpty | LoadingWithData`
+- `is_pending()` = `Idle | LoadingEmpty` (TanStack `isPending` parity)
+- Plus `Cancelled` (explicit cancel).
+
+Plain-query fetch tasks are `.detach()`ed — the signal + guard already prevent stale writes, and the task self-terminates when its `WeakEntity` target is dropped. Mutations and infinite queries store the task via `set_current_task`, so a replacement call or component unmount HARD-aborts the prior task.
+
+## Quick start
+
+```rust
+use gpui_query::{use_query, QueryClient};
+
+// Once, at app startup. In debug builds the `use_query` family panics without
+// this (`use_infinite_query` / `use_mutation` fall back silently); release
+// builds always fall back to standalone entities (no shared cache, no GC, no
+// bulk ops). Always set it.
+cx.set_global(QueryClient::new());
+
+struct UserList {
+    users: gpui::Entity, MyError>>,
+    _subscription: gpui::Subscription,   // store both — see Observers
+}
+
+impl UserList {
+    fn new(cx: &mut gpui::Context) -> Self {
+        let (users, sub) = use_query(
+            "users",                              // &str: Into
+            |signal| async move {
+                if signal.is_cancelled() { return Err(MyError::Cancelled); }
+                Ok(fetch_users().await?)
+            },
+            cx,
+        );
+        Self { users, _subscription: sub }
+    }
+}
+```
+
+Every hook returns `(Entity, Subscription)` — both must be stored. Dropping the `Subscription` kills the observation and the component stops re-rendering on state changes.
+
+## use_query / use_query_with_policy
+
+```rust
+pub fn use_query(
+    options: impl Into,
+    fetcher: F,
+    cx: &mut Context,
+) -> (Entity>, Subscription)
+where
+    T: Clone + Send + Sync + 'static,
+    E: Clone + Send + Sync + std::fmt::Debug + 'static,
+    C: 'static,
+    F: Fn(QuerySignal) -> Fut + Send + 'static,
+    Fut: Future> + Send + 'static;
+```
+
+`use_query_with_policy` is identical except `Fut: Future, E>>` — the fetcher returns a `Fetched` so a server-derived `CachePolicy` overrides the resource's on success (**"server wins"**):
+
+```rust
+use gpui_query::{use_query_with_policy, QueryOptions, Fetched, CachePolicy};
+
+let (entity, _sub) = use_query_with_policy(
+    QueryOptions::new("user/42"),
+    |signal| async move {
+        let (user, cc) = fetch_user_with_cache_control().await?;
+        // Fetched::with_policy overrides the resource's policy with the
+        // server's (e.g. parsed from Cache-Control). Fetched::new(user)
+        // keeps the caller's policy unchanged.
+        Ok(Fetched::with_policy(user, cc))
+    },
+    cx,
+);
+```
+
+`Fetched::new(data)` keeps the caller's policy; `Fetched::with_policy(data, policy)` replaces it after `complete_success`, so subsequent freshness/SWR checks use the server's TTL.
+
+`QueryOptions` builder (also `From<&str>` / `From` / `From` / `From<(QueryKey, CachePolicy, RequestPolicy)>`):
+
+| Builder | Effect |
+|---|---|
+| `.cache_policy(p)` | Per-query cache policy (default `Ttl { ttl_ms: 60_000 }`). |
+| `.request_policy(p)` | `LatestWins` (default) or `IgnoreWhileLoading`. |
+| `.retry_policy(p)` | Per-query retry (default 3 + exponential). Installed onto the entity — without a hook the resource starts at `RetryPolicy::no_retries()`. |
+| `.force()` | `force_fetch = true` → bypass cache freshness, always fetch. |
+| `.gc_time(ms)` / `.keep_previous()` | **Reserved / forward-compat.** Stored, NOT consumed today (GC runs off `QueryClient::with_gc_time`). |
+
+**Imperative refetch** on an existing entity (button click, timer, after invalidation): `fetch_query(&entity, || async { ... }, cx)`. Variants: `fetch_query_with_policy` (server-wins) and `fetch_query_with_signal` (`FnOnce(QuerySignal) -> Fut`; **no retries** because `FnOnce` is consumed on first call).
+
+## use_mutation
+
+```rust
+pub fn use_mutation(
+    options: impl Into,          // use_mutation((), cx) works via From<()>
+    cx: &mut Context,
+) -> (Entity>, Subscription)
+where V: Clone + Send + Sync + 'static, T: Clone + Send + Sync + 'static,
+      E: Clone + Send + Sync + 'static, C: 'static;
+```
+
+`MutationResource`: `V` = variables (input), `T` = success output, `E` = error (defaults to `QueryError`). Status: `Idle` → `Loading` → `Success` | `Failure`.
+
+Trigger with `mutate` (or `mutate_with_callbacks`):
+
+```rust
+pub fn mutate(
+    entity: &Entity>,
+    variables: V,
+    mutator: F,                                  // Fn(V) -> Fut
+    cx: &mut Context,
+) where ...;
+
+pub fn mutate_with_callbacks(
+    entity: &Entity>,
+    variables: V,
+    mutator: F,
+    callbacks: MutationCallbacks,
+    cx: &mut Context,
+);
+```
+
+`MutationCallbacks::new().on_success(|t: &T| ...).on_error(|e: &E| ...).on_settled(|opt_t: Option<&T>, opt_e: Option<&E>| ...)`. The closures are `Fn(&T)` / `Fn(&E)` / `Fn(Option<&T>, Option<&E>)` (borrowed, not owned) — they fire on the terminal outcome (after retries exhaust / first success), run outside any entity borrow, and are safe to call `entity.update()` inside.
+
+```rust
+use gpui_query::hook::{use_mutation, mutate_with_callbacks, MutationCallbacks};
+
+// In handle_submit:
+mutate_with_callbacks(
+    &self.create_user,
+    NewUser { name },
+    |vars| async move { api_create_user(vars).await },
+    MutationCallbacks::new()
+        .on_success(|_user: &User| { /* navigate, etc. */ })
+        .on_settled(|_, _| { /* always: hide spinner */ }),
+    cx,
+);
+```
+
+Behavior:
+- **Concurrent guard:** `mutate` does an atomic check+`begin` inside one `entity.update`. If already `Loading`, the call is a no-op (no second in-flight mutation on the same entity).
+- **Drop safety net:** if the entity is dropped mid-mutation, `on_error` / `on_settled(None, None)` still fire so callers always get a terminal callback.
+- **Hard-abort:** the task is stored via `set_current_task`; a replacement `mutate` or component unmount aborts the prior task.
+- `mutate_by_ref` / `mutate_arc` — mutator takes `&V` (borrowed from a stored `Arc`), so the retry loop does **no `V::clone` per attempt**. `V: Clone` is still required (the initial `begin` stores one owned copy).
+- `use_mutation_state::(cx)` returns all registered mutation entities of that type triple (for devtools / batch views).
+
+**Optimistic update pattern** — write to the cache before the mutation resolves, then invalidate/refetch on settle:
+
+```rust
+// Before mutate: prime the cache so the UI updates instantly.
+cx.update_global::(|c, cx| {
+    c.set_query_data::, MyError>(
+        "users",
+        vec![User { name: name.clone(), ..Default::default() }],  // optimistic
+        cx,
+    );
+});
+// On settle: invalidate_queries so the real fetcher overwrites it.
+```
+
+`set_query_data` saves the previous data; the resource exposes `rollback_to_previous()` if you need to undo on failure.
+
+## use_infinite_query
+
+```rust
+pub fn use_infinite_query(
+    options: InfiniteQueryOptions,               // concrete (not impl Into)
+    fetch_next: FNext,
+    cx: &mut Context,
+) -> (Entity>, Subscription)
+where
+    T: Clone + Send + Sync + 'static,
+    E: Clone + Send + Sync + std::fmt::Debug + 'static,
+    C: 'static,
+    FNext: Fn(Option<&T>) -> Fut + 'static,      // receives the last page (or None)
+    Fut: Future> + Send + 'static;  // (page, has_more)
+```
+
+The fetcher returns `(page_data, has_more)`. `Option<&T>` is the previously-loaded last page so the fetcher can derive a cursor. Drive pagination imperatively:
+
+```rust
+use gpui_query::{use_infinite_query, fetch_next_page_infinite, InfiniteQueryOptions};
+
+let (feed, _sub) = use_infinite_query(
+    InfiniteQueryOptions::new("feed").max_pages(20),
+    |last: Option<&Vec>| async move {
+        let cursor = last.and_then(|p| p.last().map(|x| x.id)).unwrap_or(0);
+        let (posts, more) = fetch_page(cursor).await?;
+        Ok((posts, more))
+    },
+    cx,
+);
+
+// On scroll-to-bottom:
+fetch_next_page_infinite(&self.feed, |last| async move { /* same shape */ }, cx);
+// Backward: fetch_previous_page_infinite(&entity, |first| async move { ... }, cx);
+```
+
+`InfiniteQueryOptions`: `.max_pages(n)` (default `Some(50)`, bounded to prevent unbounded growth), `.unbounded_pages()` (`None` — never evict; use with caution), plus `.cache_policy()` / `.retry_policy()` / `.gc_time()` builders. Construct via `InfiniteQueryOptions::new(key)` or `InfiniteQueryOptions::from("feed")`.
+
+`InfiniteQueryResource` accessors:
+
+| Method | Returns |
+|---|---|
+| `pages()` | `&VecDeque>` — all loaded pages, first→last. |
+| `page_count()` / `has_data()` | page count / any loaded. |
+| `first_page()` / `last_page()` | `Option<&T>` borrowed views. |
+| `first_page_arc()` / `last_page_arc()` | `Option>` — cheap refcount bump to hand to a fetcher. |
+| `has_next_page()` / `has_previous_page()` | more pages available in either direction. |
+| `is_fetching_next_page()` / `is_fetching_previous_page()` | a page fetch is in flight. |
+| `is_page_data_valid()` | `true` on `Success`/`LoadingWithData`; on `Failure` returns `true` if pages exist (the failure is scoped to the last page fetch — prior pages stay valid). |
+
+`FetchDirection` (set at construction, not by the hook options): `ForwardOnly` (default — `has_next_page` starts `true` as an assumption, fetcher's `has_more` drives it false) vs `Bidirectional` (both start `false`; use `InfiniteQueryResource::new_bidirectional`). The default hook uses `ForwardOnly`.
+
+## use_query_select
+
+Project cached data through a `SelectTransform` — multiple derived views over one cache entry, no duplication.
+
+```rust
+pub type QuerySelectResult = (
+    Entity>,
+    Entity>,
+    (Subscription, Subscription),            // query sub + mapped observer sub
+);
+
+pub fn use_query_select(
+    options: impl Into,
+    transform: SelectTransform,        // SelectTransform::new(|t: &T| -> U)
+    fetcher: F,
+    cx: &mut Context,
+) -> QuerySelectResult
+where T: Clone + PartialEq + Send + Sync + 'static, U: 'static, /* ... */;
+```
+
+```rust
+use gpui_query::{use_query_select, QueryOptions, core::SelectTransform};
+
+let count = SelectTransform::new(|users: &Vec| users.len());
+let (mapped, query_entity, subs) = use_query_select(
+    QueryOptions::new("users"),
+    count,
+    |signal| async move { Ok(fetch_users().await?) },
+    cx,
+);
+// mapped.read(cx).data()  -> Option
+```
+
+Store **both** subscriptions (`(query_sub, mapped_sub)`) or the projection stops updating. The transform closure runs on every `MappedQueryResource::data()` call (no output cache) — for expensive transforms, bind `let data = mapped.read(cx).data();` once per render and reuse. The mapped entity re-syncs from the source only when the source `T` actually changed (`PartialEq`), so unchanged notifications pay just an `Arc::clone`.
+
+## CachePolicy
+
+`#[derive(Clone, Copy, Debug, PartialEq, Eq, Serialize, Deserialize)]`. Default (via `QueryOptions` and `QueryClient`): `Ttl { ttl_ms: 60_000 }`.
+
+| Variant | Behavior | Freshness |
+|---|---|---|
+| `NoCache` | Always fetch; never short-circuits. | `is_fresh` always false; `is_expired` always true. |
+| `Ttl { ttl_ms }` | Serve fresh within TTL. | `is_fresh(age)` when `age <= ttl_ms` — **INCLUSIVE boundary** (opposite of HTTP `max-age`; mind the off-by-one). |
+| `StaleWhileRevalidate { ttl_ms, stale_ms }` | `[0, ttl]` fresh; `[ttl, ttl+stale]` serve stale + background revalidate; past `ttl+stale` expired. | `is_stale_but_serveable(age)` in the stale window. |
+
+Helper methods: `can_short_circuit()` (Ttl/SWR), `can_serve_stale()` (SWR only), `is_fresh(age)`, `is_stale_but_serveable(age)`, `is_expired(age)`, `ttl_ms()`, `total_valid_ms()` (Ttl → `ttl_ms`; SWR → `ttl_ms + stale_ms` saturating). `ttl_ms == 0` behaves like `NoCache` (only `debug_assert`s in debug builds).
+
+## RetryPolicy
+
+All four fields public; builder pattern.
+
+```rust
+pub struct RetryPolicy {
+    pub max_retries: u32,              // 0 = no retries
+    pub retry_delay_ms: u64,           // base delay
+    pub exponential_backoff: bool,
+    pub max_retry_delay_ms: u64,       // configured cap
+}
+```
+
+| Constructor / builder | Result |
+|---|---|
+| `RetryPolicy::no_retries()` | `max_retries: 0`. (This is what a bare `QueryResource::new` starts with — the hook installs the real policy.) |
+| `RetryPolicy::new(n)` | `max_retries: n`, base 1000ms, no exponential, cap 30_000ms. |
+| `RetryPolicy::default()` | `new(3).with_exponential_backoff()` — **3 retries, exponential, 1s base, 30s cap.** |
+| `.with_delay(ms)` / `.with_exponential_backoff()` / `.with_max_delay(ms)` | mutators. |
+
+`delay_for_attempt(attempt)` (0-based):
+
+- exponential off → constant `retry_delay_ms`.
+- exponential on → `retry_delay_ms * 2^attempt`, where the shift is clamped to 62 (prevents overflow) and the multiply is saturating; then `.min(max_retry_delay_ms).min(3_600_000)` — a **hard 1-hour absolute ceiling** regardless of config.
+
+`should_retry(current_retries)` = `current_retries < max_retries`. Mutations and queries reset `retry_count` on a new `begin`, so each invocation gets fresh retries.
+
+## QueryKey + QueryKeyFilter
+
+`QueryKey` — hierarchical key backed by `Arc<[Arc]>` (clone = one refcount bump regardless of length). Serde-flexible (deserializes from a JSON string array OR a bare string).
+
+```rust
+// Construction
+QueryKey::from("users")                         // From<&str> -> single segment
+QueryKey::from(["users", "42", "posts"])        // From<[&str; N]> -> multi-segment
+QueryKey::from_single("users")
+QueryKey::new(["users", &id.to_string()])       // PANICS on an empty iterator — guard emptiness
+```
+
+Accessors: `parts() -> &[Arc]`, `as_single() -> Option<&str>` (only if exactly one segment), `first_segment() -> &str` (first only — NOT the joined key), `to_path() -> String` (`"::"`-joined, e.g. `"users::42::posts"`), `join(extra) -> QueryKey` (O(n) copy — prefer one `new([...])` over chained `.join()`). `starts_with(prefix)` is **segment-wise** (used by `Prefix` filters); an empty prefix matches every valid key.
+
+`QueryKeyFilter<'a>` (used by every bulk op on `QueryClient`):
+
+| Variant | Matches |
+|---|---|
+| `Exact(&QueryKey)` | only that exact key. |
+| `Prefix(&QueryKey)` | all keys that `starts_with` it (segment-wise — `["users"]` matches `["users", "42", "posts"]`). |
+| `All` | every key. |
+
+## QueryClient API
+
+A GPUI `Global`. Set once: `cx.set_global(QueryClient::new())`. Access from anywhere: `cx.global::()` / `cx.update_global::(|c, cx| ...)`.
+
+**Construction:**
+- `QueryClient::new()` — defaults (`Ttl 60s`, `LatestWins`, `gc_time_ms: 300_000`).
+- `QueryClient::with_policies(cache, request)` — custom default policies for resources created via `resource()` (per-query `QueryOptions` still overrides).
+- `.with_gc_time(ms)` — `0` disables **opportunistic** (automatic) GC only; an explicit `gc(cx)` / `gc_with_time(now, cx)` still runs (clamping any value `< 1000` to `1000` during the pass).
+
+**Resource access** (type-partitioned by `(T, E)`):
+```rust
+client.resource::, MyError>("users", cx)                  // get-or-create with default policies
+client.resource_with_policies::(key, cache, request, cx)      // explicit policies
+client.query::(&key)            // Option>>
+client.all_queries::()          // Vec>  (allocates)
+```
+
+**Data accessors** (ergonomic cache reads/writes; type params required):
+```rust
+client.get_query_data::, MyError>(&"users", cx)           // Option> (clones T)
+client.with_query_data::, MyError, _>(&"users", cx, |u: &Vec| u.len())  // Option, zero-clone
+client.set_query_data::, MyError>("users", data, cx)      // creates resource if absent; saves previous for rollback
+```
+
+**Bulk operations** (take `&QueryKeyFilter`, operate across all query + infinite buckets):
+```rust
+client.invalidate_queries(&filter, cx)   // clears last_updated_at; DATA RETAINED but now stale -> next read refetches
+client.reset_queries(&filter, cx)        // back to Idle, clears data/error
+client.remove_queries(&filter)           // drops entries entirely (no cx needed)
+client.cancel_queries(&filter, cx)       // cooperative-cancel in-flight (signal.cancel() + mark_ignored_result)
+```
+`invalidate_queries` is the workhorse after a mutation: it marks matching keys stale so the next `use_query` mount or read refetches, without dropping the cached value (avoids a loading flash).
+
+**GC and diagnostics:**
+- `client.gc(cx)` / `gc_with_time(now_ms, cx)` — evicts dead refs; `Idle`/`Failure`/`Cancelled` older than `gc_time_ms`; `Success` older than `gc_time_ms * SUCCESS_GC_MULTIPLIER`; loading resources always retained. GC also fires opportunistically every `GC_INTERVAL` operations (debounced by `MIN_GC_TIME_MS`), so you rarely call it manually.
+- `client.diagnostics(cx) -> ClientDiagnostic` — per-resource key/status/cache-age for devtools.
+
+**Imperative fetch / prefetch** (no observer attached — for warming the cache outside a component):
+```rust
+// fetchQuery: forced, always returns a PreparedFetch (None only if no sequencer).
+if let Some(p) = client.prepare_fetch_query::("user/42", cx) {
+    let signal = p.signal.clone();
+    let entity = p.entity.clone();
+    cx.spawn(async move |_, cx| {
+        match fetch(signal).await {
+            Ok(data) => p.complete_success(data, cx),   // no-op if superseded
+            Err(e)    => p.complete_failure(e, cx),
+        }
+    }).detach();
+}
+
+// prefetchQuery: respects cache_policy — returns None on a fresh cache hit.
+if let Some(p) = client.prepare_prefetch_query::(key, cache, request, cx) { /* ... */ }
+```
+
+`PreparedFetch` is `#[must_use]` — it holds the entity, `request_id`, `signal`, and the captured `now_ms` (used as the logical completion time). `complete_success(data, cx)` / `complete_failure(err, cx)` consume it by value and are no-ops if the request was superseded.
+
+### Manual `QueryResource` / `MutationResource` control
+
+Beyond hooks, the entity itself exposes (call inside `entity.update(cx, |r, cx| …)`):
+
+- `cancel(error: E) -> bool` — Loading → Cancelled, stashes current data into `previous_data`. **No-op (returns `false`) unless currently Loading.** `MutationResource::cancel(error: E)` has the same shape — cancel takes an `E`, not unit.
+- `reset()` — back to Idle; clears data / error / diagnostic counters, preserves policies and key.
+- `set_data(data)` / `clear_data()` — optimistic primitives (write or clear without a fetch); `rollback_to_previous()` undoes a `set_query_data` / `set_data`.
+- `is_data_stale(now_ms)` — staleness heuristic; `complete_current_success(request_id, data, now_ms)` / `complete_current_failure(request_id, err, now_ms)` do accept + complete in one call for manual flows.
+
+## Observers & re-render semantics
+
+A single generic `Observer` with aliases `QueryObserver`, `InfiniteQueryObserver`, `MutationObserver`. The hooks attach one automatically; manual use:
+
+```rust
+let sub = QueryObserver::new(&entity)
+    .with_config(ObserverConfig { notify_on_status_change_only: true })  // default
+    .observe(cx)?;   // Option — None if entity already dropped
+```
+
+**Re-renders fire ONLY when `observable_status()` changes.** `increment_retry()` / `prepare_retry()` (status stays `Loading`) and `set_current_task` do NOT re-render — this is why a 3-retry mutation doesn't paint 3 times. Set `notify_on_status_change_only: false` to get a notify on every entity mutation.
+
+**Subscription retention is mandatory.** A hook's returned `Subscription` must outlive the component's interest; dropping it detaches the observer and the component stops reacting. `use_query_select` returns **two** subscriptions (query + mapped observer) — store both, usually as a tuple field.
+
+## Gotchas
+
+- **Inclusive TTL boundary.** `is_fresh(age)` is `age <= ttl_ms` (not `<`) — opposite of HTTP `max-age`. A `Ttl { ttl_ms: 1000 }` is still fresh at exactly 1000ms. Watch for off-by-one when translating server `Cache-Control`.
+- **Empty-key panic.** `QueryKey::new(iter::empty())` panics unconditionally in all build modes. Use `from_single` / `From<&str>` / guard the iterator at the call site.
+- **`QueryClient` required in debug.** `use_query_manual` — and the `use_query` / `use_query_with_policy` / `use_query_unsignalled` / `use_query_manual_opts` hooks that delegate to it — **panics** in debug builds if no global `QueryClient` is set; release silently falls back to a standalone entity. `use_infinite_query` and `use_mutation` do NOT panic: in debug `use_infinite_query` prints an `eprintln!` warning and falls back to a standalone entity, and `use_mutation` silently skips client registration (so no shared cache, no GC, no bulk ops, no `use_mutation_state`). Always `cx.set_global(QueryClient::new())` at startup.
+- **Subscription drop kills observation.** Every hook returns `(Entity, Subscription)`; `use_query_select` returns a 3-tuple with two subs. Bind them as struct fields (`_subscription`), not temporaries, or the component freezes after first render.
+- **`WeakEntity` silent discard.** Async tasks capture `entity.downgrade()`. If the owning component unmounts mid-fetch, `weak.upgrade()` returns `None` and the result is silently discarded — no callback fires. Mutations are the exception: `on_settled(None, None)` / `on_error` still fire as a safety net. For completion guarantees on queries, use `fetch_query_with_signal` with your own handling.
+- **`QueryResource::new` starts with `no_retries()`.** The `use_query` hook installs the real `RetryPolicy` from options; if you construct resources directly (or call `fetch_query` on a manually-made entity), set it yourself via `entity.update(cx, |r, _| r.set_retry_policy(p))`.
+- **Mutation GC actually runs.** `QueryClient`'s explicit `Default` sets `gc_time_ms: 300_000` (the derived `Default` would have been `0` = disabled). `with_gc_time(0)` still disables; any value `< 1000` is clamped to `1000` during the pass. Mutations are GC-eligible by completion time, not insertion time.
+- **`mutate` is a no-op when Loading.** The check+`begin` is atomic inside one `entity.update`; a racing second call cannot slip through. If you need to replace an in-flight mutation, cancel or reset first.
+- **`max_pages` default is bounded.** `InfiniteQueryOptions` defaults to `Some(50)`. `ForwardOnly` (default direction) starts `has_next_page = true` as an assumption — the fetcher's `has_more` is what flips it false.
+- **`MappedQueryResource::data()` re-runs the transform every call.** No output cache. Bind the result to a local once per render.
+- **`cancel_queries` is two-step per match.** It reads `is_loading()` before mutating so non-loading entries don't get spurious observer notifications.
+- **macOS Metal Toolchain.** Any tier pulling `gpui` (`client`/`hook`/`persist`) fails to build without it. `xcodebuild -downloadComponent MetalToolchain` once. Core-only builds are unaffected.
+
+## Pointers
+
+- Docs site: https://gpui-query.freeoxide.com/docs/ — guides under `/docs/guides/` (`caching`, `retry`, `query-keys`, `select-pattern`, `error-handling`); API reference under `/docs/api/`.
+- Public API surface: everything is glob re-exported at the crate root. The `core::`, `client::`, and `hook::` modules are also public if you need a fully-qualified path (e.g. `gpui_query::core::SelectTransform`, `gpui_query::client::PreparedFetch`).
+- Type parameters are load-bearing: `QueryResource`, `MutationResource` (E defaults to `QueryError`), `InfiniteQueryResource`. `(T, E)` is the bucket partition key — the same key under two different type pairs is two separate cache entries.

+title: Claude Code skills
+description: "Install gpui-query's Claude Code skills so your AI assistant writes correct hooks, caching, retry, and persistence code without guessing the API."
+---
+
+gpui-query ships two [Claude Code](https://claude.com/claude-code) skills — self-contained knowledge packs that teach an AI assistant the real gpui-query API (exact signatures, defaults, lifecycle, and gotchas). Install them once and the assistant stops guessing how `use_query`, `CachePolicy`, `persist_with`, or `HttpCache` work.
+
+:::note
+These use the standard [Claude Code skill format](https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/claude-code/skills), so they work in the Claude Code CLI, desktop app, web, and IDE extensions. They activate automatically based on what you're working on — you don't invoke them by hand.
+:::
+
+## What you get
+
+| Skill | Covers |
+|---|---|
+| `gpui-query` | The essentials: `use_query`, `use_mutation`, `use_infinite_query`, `use_query_select`, in-memory `CachePolicy` (TTL / stale-while-revalidate / no-cache), `RetryPolicy`, `QueryKey` filters, `QueryClient` bulk operations, observers, and GC. |
+| `gpui-query-extensions` | The satellite crates: HTTP `Cache-Control` → `CachePolicy` and an `HttpCache` layer for cheap `304` refetches (`gpui-query-http`), plus durable disk persistence with `FilePersister` and the `persist` feature (`gpui-query-persist`). |
+
+Install `gpui-query` for everyday app work; add `gpui-query-extensions` when you wire up HTTP caching or disk persistence.
+
+## Install
+
+Both skills live in the repo under [`skills/`](https://github.com/freeoxide/gpui-query/tree/master/skills). Copy them into your user-level skills directory so they're available in **every** project:
+
+```sh
+cp -R skills/gpui-query skills/gpui-query-extensions ~/.claude/skills/
+```
+
+Install just one, or fetch it without cloning the repo:
+
+```sh
+# essentials
+mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/gpui-query
+curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/freeoxide/gpui-query/master/skills/gpui-query/SKILL.md \
+  -o ~/.claude/skills/gpui-query/SKILL.md
+
+# extensions
+mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/gpui-query-extensions
+curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/freeoxide/gpui-query/master/skills/gpui-query-extensions/SKILL.md \
+  -o ~/.claude/skills/gpui-query-extensions/SKILL.md
+```
+
+:::tip[Verify it loaded]
+After installing, open a project that depends on gpui-query and ask the assistant something about queries or caching — the skill loads on its own. Run `/skills` to confirm both are registered.
+:::
+
+## Project-scoped alternative
+
+To pin a skill to a single repo instead of every project, drop it into that project's `.claude/skills/` directory rather than `~/.claude/skills/`. It then activates only when you're working inside that project.
+
+## Updating
+
+The skills track gpui-query **v0.2.0** (essentials) and the **v0.1.0** satellites (extensions). Each skill is a single `SKILL.md` with no other dependencies, so re-running the install command above after a `cargo update` is all it takes to refresh them.

-        documentation and blog. The site has no user accounts, no comment forms, and no newsletter.

-    <LegalSection title="Analytics">
-      <p>
-        We use <strong>Firebase Analytics</strong> (part of Google Firebase, operated by Google LLC)

-        from, and what kind of device and browser they use. Firebase collects this through a device

-      <p>
-        Fonts are <strong>self-hosted</strong>: the font files are bundled with the site and served

 in use_query_manual
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The #[cfg(not(debug_assertions))] fallback calls cx.new() without the
AppContext trait in scope, so the crate fails to compile in any release
build (cargo check/build --release). Dev builds never compile the branch,
which masked it. Published 0.1.4 and 0.2.0 both carry this — any app
taking gpui-query with the hook feature cannot build --release.

-title: Web and docs migration to Astro + Starlight
-description: "Audited implementation plan for migrating gpui-query from TanStack Start and Docusaurus to Astro with Starlight documentation while preserving URLs, SEO, themes, chart tokens, components, search, and Cloudflare Pages deployment."
----
-
-This page is the working plan for migrating the `web/` app from TanStack Start to Astro and the documentation from Docusaurus to Starlight. The goal is not a redesign. The goal is to preserve the current public behavior, visual system, docs URLs, SEO output, generated assets, search, and Cloudflare Pages deployment while replacing the framework surface.
-
-## Audit summary
-
-The previous Astro plan was missing the required Starlight migration. It treated `docs/` as a Docusaurus site that would continue to be built separately and copied into `web/public/docs`. That is no longer the target.
-
-Required corrections:
-
-- Use Starlight for documentation, not Docusaurus.
-- Prefer one final Astro build in `web/` that owns both marketing/blog pages and Starlight docs.
-- Keep docs under `/docs/**`.
-- Keep the current visual system: shared tokens, fonts, dark mode behavior, chart colors, components, icon policy, and generated OG image style.
-- Replace Docusaurus-specific docs assumptions: `docusaurus.config.ts`, `_category_.json`, `sidebars.ts`, Infima CSS variables, swizzled logo, Docusaurus client analytics, and Docusaurus build/copy script.
-- Convert docs content carefully: sidebar order, root intro page, internal links, admonitions/asides, code highlighting, static assets, SEO fallback image, and generated markdown/llms scripts.
-- Keep one Pagefind index for the final combined output. Do not let Starlight and the existing post-build Pagefind step create competing `/pagefind` indexes.
-
-Repo audit notes:
-
-- Current docs content is mostly portable Markdown/MDX.
-- Current docs ordering depends on Docusaurus `sidebar_position` and `_category_.json`.
-- The `advanced` section has duplicate `sidebar_position: 2` values for `devtools.mdx` and `observers.mdx`; use an explicit Starlight sidebar order instead of relying only on autogeneration.
-- Current docs root depends on `docs/docs/intro.mdx` with `slug: /`; in Starlight this should become `web/src/content/docs/docs/index.mdx`.
-- Current docs contain root-absolute links like `/api/queries`, `/guides/caching`, and `/getting-started/installation`. Under Starlight at `/docs`, these must become `/docs/api/queries`, `/docs/guides/caching`, `/docs/getting-started/installation`, or relative links.
-- Current docs styling in `docs/src/css/custom.css` is Docusaurus/Infima-specific. Reuse the design intent and tokens, not the selectors as-is.
-- Current chart colors only exist as CSS variables in `web/src/styles.css`; no chart component or chart library was found. Preserve those variables and move them into shared token scope before adding Starlight docs components that may use charts.
-- Current `web/README.md`, `web/AGENTS.md`, `justfile`, `web/scripts/build-docs.ts`, `web/scripts/generate-og-images.ts`, `web/scripts/generate-llms-txt.ts`, and `web/scripts/generate-md-alt.ts` all contain Docusaurus or TanStack Start assumptions that must be updated.
-
-## Current state
-
-The repository has three surfaces that the migration must respect:
-
-- `web/`: marketing/blog site currently built with TanStack Start, Vite+, React, Tailwind v4, Pagefind, Firebase Analytics, and Cloudflare Pages.
-- `docs/`: Docusaurus documentation site, currently built separately and copied into `web/public/docs`.
-- Rust crates: not part of this migration, except that website and docs links point to crate APIs, changelog entries, and release metadata.
-
-Important existing behavior:
-
-- The deployed output is static content from `web/dist/client`.
-- Canonical URLs intentionally avoid trailing slashes for app pages.
-- The current build emits flat files such as `faq.html`, `blog.html`, and `privacy.html` so Cloudflare Pages does not redirect canonical app URLs.
-- Documentation remains publicly served under `/docs/`.
-- Pagefind indexes the final combined output, including docs and blog pages.
-- Blog posts live in `web/src/content/blog/*.mdx`.
-- Docs pages currently live in `docs/docs/**/*.mdx`.
-- OG images, `llms.txt`, `llms-full.txt`, and Markdown alternatives are generated by scripts in `web/scripts`.
-- There is no current server-function or API-route surface in `web/src`.
-
-The first Astro target should therefore be a static Astro site, not an SSR Worker app.
-
-## Target architecture
-
-Use Astro static output for the full public site and Starlight for documentation.
-
-Final target:
-
-- `web/astro.config.mjs` owns the Astro build.
-- Marketing/blog/legal pages live in `web/src/pages`.
-- Blog posts stay in `web/src/content/blog`.
-- Starlight docs live in `web/src/content/docs/docs`.
-- `web/src/content/docs/docs/index.mdx` renders `/docs/`.
-- `web/src/content/docs/docs/getting-started/installation.mdx` renders `/docs/getting-started/installation`.
-- `web/dist/client` remains the deploy directory.
-- Cloudflare Pages remains the deploy target.
-
-Do not keep Docusaurus as a permanent second build. A temporary side-by-side phase is fine for parity comparison, but the final migration should remove the Docusaurus app and the copy-to-`web/public/docs` pipeline.
-
-Do not introduce `@astrojs/cloudflare` unless we add on-demand routes, API handlers, or Cloudflare bindings later.
-
-## Astro and Starlight configuration
-
-Use a single static Astro config with React islands, MDX, Tailwind, and Starlight:
-
-```js
-// web/astro.config.mjs
-import { defineConfig } from "astro/config";
-import react from "@astrojs/react";
-import mdx from "@astrojs/mdx";
-import starlight from "@astrojs/starlight";
-import tailwindcss from "@tailwindcss/vite";
-
-export default defineConfig({
-  site: "https://gpui-query.freeoxide.com",
-  trailingSlash: "never",
-  output: "static",
-  outDir: "dist/client",
-  build: {
-    format: "file",
-  },

-      logo: {
-        src: "./src/assets/logo.svg",
-      },
-      customCss: ["./src/styles/starlight.css"],
-      // First cut: keep the existing post-build Pagefind index for the
-      // combined marketing/blog/docs output. Re-enable Starlight search only
-      // if it is wired to the same final index or replaces the global search.
-      pagefind: false,
-      social: [
-        {
-          icon: "github",
-          label: "GitHub",

-    },
-  },
-});
-```
-
-The sidebar is intentionally explicit for the first cut because the current Docusaurus docs have one duplicate `sidebar_position` and many root-absolute links. During implementation, verify that Starlight route IDs and generated links match `/docs/**` exactly before considering autogeneration.
-
-Do not set Astro's `base` to `/docs`. The whole site is served from the domain root. The docs subpath comes from placing Starlight content under `src/content/docs/docs/**`.
-
-Add a combined content config:
-
-```ts
-// web/src/content.config.ts
-import { defineCollection } from "astro:content";
-import { glob } from "astro/loaders";
-import { z } from "astro/zod";
-import { docsLoader } from "@astrojs/starlight/loaders";
-import { docsSchema } from "@astrojs/starlight/schema";
-
-const blog = defineCollection({
-  loader: glob({ pattern: "**/*.mdx", base: "./src/content/blog" }),
-  schema: z.object({
-    title: z.string(),
-    description: z.string(),
-    date: z.coerce.date(),
-    author: z.string(),
-    tags: z.array(z.string()).optional(),
-  }),
-});
-
-export const collections = {
-  docs: defineCollection({ loader: docsLoader(), schema: docsSchema() }),
-  blog,
-};
-```

-## Route and content mapping
-
-| Current route or source | Astro/Starlight target | Migration notes |
-| --- | --- | --- |
-| `web/src/routes/__root.tsx` | `web/src/layouts/BaseLayout.astro` | Move HTML shell, theme bootstrap, global CSS, navbar, footer, analytics, and metadata defaults. |
-| `web/src/routes/index.tsx` | `web/src/pages/index.astro` | Render the current V4 landing page. Keep interactive landing widgets as React islands initially. |
-| `web/src/routes/blog/index.tsx` | `web/src/pages/blog.astro` | Replace custom frontmatter-only glob with Astro content collection queries. |
-| `web/src/routes/blog/$slug.tsx` | `web/src/pages/blog/[slug].astro` | Use `getStaticPaths()` and `render(post)`. Preserve prev/next navigation and JSON-LD. |
-| `web/src/routes/faq.tsx` | `web/src/pages/faq.astro` | Prefer static HTML or native `details`/`summary` before keeping a React accordion. Preserve FAQ JSON-LD. |
-| `web/src/routes/changelog.tsx` | `web/src/pages/changelog.astro` | Static page. Keep release data accurate to `CHANGELOG.md`. |
-| `web/src/routes/privacy.tsx` | `web/src/pages/privacy.astro` | Static legal page. |
-| `web/src/routes/terms.tsx` | `web/src/pages/terms.astro` | Static legal page. |
-| `web/src/routes/v1.tsx` through `v4.tsx` | omit or generate conditionally | Preview routes are currently disabled. Keep them out of sitemap and output unless the flag is enabled. |
-| `docs/docs/intro.mdx` | `web/src/content/docs/docs/index.mdx` | Remove `slug: /`. Preserve title and description. This is `/docs/`. |
-| `docs/docs/getting-started/*.mdx` | `web/src/content/docs/docs/getting-started/*.mdx` | Convert sidebar frontmatter and links. |
-| `docs/docs/api/*.mdx` | `web/src/content/docs/docs/api/*.mdx` | Convert sidebar frontmatter and links. |
-| `docs/docs/guides/*.mdx` | `web/src/content/docs/docs/guides/*.mdx` | Convert sidebar frontmatter and links. |
-| `docs/docs/advanced/*.mdx` | `web/src/content/docs/docs/advanced/*.mdx` | Convert sidebar frontmatter and links. |
-| `docs/docs/**/_category_.json` | Starlight `sidebar` config | Preserve labels, order, and expanded/collapsed intent. Remove after parity. |
-| `docs/sidebars.ts` | Starlight `sidebar` config | Replace Docusaurus autogenerated sidebar. |
-| `docs/static/img/logo.svg` | `web/src/assets/logo.svg` or `web/public/img/logo.svg` | Use Starlight logo config. Preserve header/homepage behavior. |
-| `docs/src/theme/Logo/index.tsx` | Starlight component override if needed | Current Docusaurus swizzle makes the docs logo link to `/`. Preserve this with a Starlight override if default logo behavior links only to docs home. |
-| `docs/src/css/custom.css` | `web/src/styles/starlight.css` | Rebuild against Starlight CSS variables and selectors. Keep visual intent, tokens, fonts, and density. |
-
-## Phase 1: Baseline and inventory
-
-1. Build the current site before changing frameworks.
-2. Save a URL and artifact manifest from `web/dist/client`.
-3. Save rendered HTML snapshots for representative pages:
-   - `/`
-   - `/blog`
-   - `/blog/cache-policies-explained`
-   - `/blog/cooperative-cancellation`
-   - `/faq`
-   - `/changelog`
-   - `/privacy`
-   - `/terms`
-   - `/docs/`
-   - `/docs/getting-started/installation`
-   - `/docs/api/queries`
-   - `/docs/guides/caching`
-   - `/docs/advanced/migration`
-4. Record required generated files:
-   - `/index.html`
-   - `/blog.html`
-   - `/blog/*.html`
-   - `/faq.html`
-   - `/changelog.html`
-   - `/privacy.html`
-   - `/terms.html`
-   - `/docs/**`
-   - `/pagefind/**`
-   - `/llms.txt`
-   - `/llms-full.txt`
-   - `/docs/**/*.md`
-   - `/og/**`
-   - `/og-image.png`
-   - `/sitemap.xml`
-   - `/docs/sitemap.xml`
-5. Record current theme and component details:
-   - `shared/tokens.css`
-   - `web/src/styles.css`
-   - `docs/src/css/custom.css`
-   - `web/components.json`
-   - `web/src/components/ui/**`
-   - `web/src/components/navbar.tsx`
-   - `web/src/components/search-dialog.tsx`
-   - `web/src/components/theme-toggle.tsx`
-6. Record docs content details:
-   - `_category_.json` labels and order
-   - `sidebar_position`
-   - `slug`
-   - root-absolute links
-   - `:::` admonitions
-   - static assets
-   - code block language coverage
-
-## Phase 2: Scaffold Astro and Starlight
-
-Add Astro dependencies while keeping TanStack and Docusaurus dependencies in place for comparison:
-
-```bash
-cd web
-bun add astro @astrojs/react @astrojs/mdx @astrojs/starlight
-```
-
-Add temporary scripts so old and new builds can be compared:
-
-```json
-{
-  "scripts": {
-    "astro:dev": "astro dev --port 3000",
-    "astro:build": "astro build",
-    "astro:preview": "astro preview"
-  }
-}
-```
-
-Create:
-
-- `web/astro.config.mjs`
-- `web/src/content.config.ts`
-- `web/src/layouts/BaseLayout.astro`
-- `web/src/components/HeadMeta.astro` or a small metadata helper
-- `web/src/styles/starlight.css`
-- `web/src/pages/404.astro`
-- `web/src/content/docs/docs/**`
-
-Do not remove the old routes until the Astro output matches.
-
-## Phase 3: Starlight docs migration
-
-Move documentation content into Starlight:
-
-1. Copy `docs/docs/**/*.mdx` to `web/src/content/docs/docs/**/*.mdx`.
-2. Rename `docs/docs/intro.mdx` to `web/src/content/docs/docs/index.mdx`.
-3. Remove Docusaurus-only `slug: /` from the new docs index.
-4. Convert `sidebar_position` to Starlight sidebar ordering.
-5. Convert `_category_.json` labels and positions to the Starlight `sidebar` config.
-6. Rewrite root-absolute internal docs links:
-   - `/getting-started/installation` -> `/docs/getting-started/installation`
-   - `/api/queries` -> `/docs/api/queries`
-   - `/guides/caching` -> `/docs/guides/caching`
-   - `/advanced/migration` -> `/docs/advanced/migration`
-7. Verify all current `:::note`, `:::tip`, and `:::caution` blocks render as Starlight asides. Convert only the blocks Starlight does not accept.
-8. Preserve Rust, TOML, shell, TypeScript, and TSX code highlighting. Starlight uses Astro/Shiki rather than Docusaurus Prism, so compare light and dark code blocks visually.
-9. Move docs static assets into Astro/Starlight paths:
-   - logo
-   - favicon
-   - docs OG fallback image
-10. Preserve docs metadata:
-   - title
-   - description
-   - canonical URL
-   - docs OG fallback
-   - docs sitemap
-11. Replace the Docusaurus analytics client module with a Starlight/Astro-compatible analytics script or component.
-12. Keep `docs/` until parity is proven, then remove Docusaurus files and dependencies.
-
-Do not copy the old Docusaurus build into `web/public/docs` in the final architecture.
-
-### Docs inventory to preserve
-
-Use this as the exact initial Starlight sidebar/content inventory. Autogeneration is acceptable only after these routes, labels, and order are verified.
-
-| Current source | Target route | Title | Order notes |
-| --- | --- | --- | --- |
-| `docs/docs/intro.mdx` | `/docs/` | Introduction | Top-level docs root. Remove `slug: /`. |
-| `docs/docs/getting-started/installation.mdx` | `/docs/getting-started/installation` | Installation | Getting Started, position 1. |
-| `docs/docs/getting-started/quick-start.mdx` | `/docs/getting-started/quick-start` | Quick Start | Getting Started, position 2. |
-| `docs/docs/api/queries.mdx` | `/docs/api/queries` | Queries | API Reference, position 1. |
-| `docs/docs/api/mutations.mdx` | `/docs/api/mutations` | Mutations | API Reference, position 2. |
-| `docs/docs/api/infinite-queries.mdx` | `/docs/api/infinite-queries` | Infinite Queries | API Reference, position 3. |
-| `docs/docs/api/query-client.mdx` | `/docs/api/query-client` | QueryClient | API Reference, position 4. |
-| `docs/docs/guides/caching.mdx` | `/docs/guides/caching` | Caching | Guides, position 1. |
-| `docs/docs/guides/error-handling.mdx` | `/docs/guides/error-handling` | Error handling | Guides, position 2. |
-| `docs/docs/guides/retry.mdx` | `/docs/guides/retry` | Retry | Guides, position 3. |
-| `docs/docs/guides/persistence.mdx` | `/docs/guides/persistence` | Persistence | Guides, position 4. |
-| `docs/docs/guides/query-keys.mdx` | `/docs/guides/query-keys` | Query Keys | Guides, position 5. |
-| `docs/docs/guides/select-pattern.mdx` | `/docs/guides/select-pattern` | The Select Pattern | Guides, position 6. |
-| `docs/docs/advanced/devtools.mdx` | `/docs/advanced/devtools` | Devtools | Advanced, explicit before Observers. |
-| `docs/docs/advanced/observers.mdx` | `/docs/advanced/observers` | Observers | Advanced, duplicate old position 2. Keep explicit. |
-| `docs/docs/advanced/comparison.mdx` | `/docs/advanced/comparison` | gpui-query vs. raw async | Advanced, position 3. |
-| `docs/docs/advanced/api-reference.mdx` | `/docs/advanced/api-reference` | API Reference | Advanced, position 4. |
-| `docs/docs/advanced/migration.mdx` | `/docs/advanced/migration` | Migrating from v1 to v2 | Advanced, position 5. |
-
-Top-level section order from `_category_.json`:
-
-1. Introduction
-2. Getting Started
-3. API Reference
-4. Guides
-5. Advanced
-
-Root-absolute docs links are widespread across the current docs, not isolated examples. Rewrite all links that currently start with `/api/`, `/guides/`, `/getting-started/`, or `/advanced/` before comparing the Starlight output.
-
-## Phase 4: Theme, chart, and component parity
-
-The migration must keep the same themes, chart colors, and components.
-
-### Shared tokens
-
-Keep `shared/tokens.css` as the source of truth and make both Astro pages and Starlight docs consume it.
-
-Move or duplicate these current web-only variables into shared scope before docs components or charts rely on them:
-
-```css
-:root {
-  --chart-1: oklch(0.828 0.111 230.318);
-  --chart-2: oklch(0.685 0.169 237.323);
-  --chart-3: oklch(0.588 0.158 241.966);
-  --chart-4: oklch(0.5 0.134 242.749);
-  --chart-5: oklch(0.443 0.11 240.79);
-}
-```
-
-No current chart component or chart library was found in `web/` or `docs/`. Treat chart parity as token parity for this migration, then use those same variables for any future chart component.
-
-### Starlight CSS
-
-Do not paste `docs/src/css/custom.css` into Starlight unchanged. It targets Docusaurus and Infima selectors. Recreate the theme against Starlight variables and stable Starlight selectors.
-
-Minimum `web/src/styles/starlight.css` responsibilities:
-
-- import `shared/tokens.css`
-- use the same fonts as the web app
-- map Starlight accent, gray, background, border, text, code, sidebar, and TOC colors to shared tokens
-- expose `--chart-1` through `--chart-5`
-- preserve the small-radius/sharp visual identity
-- preserve light and dark mode
-- preserve code block density and table readability
-- avoid broad global resets that break Starlight internals
-
-### Theme behavior
-
-The existing site uses:
-
-- `.dark` on `<html>`
-- `[data-theme='dark']` in shared tokens for Docusaurus
-- `localStorage.theme`
-- theme-color meta updates
-
-Starlight has its own theme UI. The migration must define one site-wide theme contract:
-
-- Keep `localStorage.theme` as the existing web contract unless there is a deliberate reason to change it.
-- Ensure Starlight dark mode sets selectors that shared tokens understand.
-- Ensure marketing pages and docs use the same light/dark palette.
-- Ensure docs theme changes update the page without fighting the marketing `ThemeToggle`.
-- Preserve the dark-mode flash prevention script for Astro pages.
-- Verify `meta[name="theme-color"]` is correct in light and dark mode.
-
-If Starlight's default theme selector uses a different local storage key, add a tiny bridge script or replace the Starlight theme control with a component override.
-
-### Components
-
-Preserve the existing component system first:
-
-- Keep `web/src/components/ui` during the first cut.
-- Keep Base UI React components for interactive islands where replacing them adds risk.
-- Keep the current navbar, theme toggle, mobile nav, and search behavior unless a Starlight override is required for docs parity.
-- Keep Phosphor as the preferred icon family for new or touched shared UI because `web/components.json` declares `"iconLibrary": "phosphor"`.
-- Do not do a migration-wide icon swap.
-- Existing Lucide icons may stay where they already exist until a component is intentionally touched.
-- If an Astro-only component needs an icon, first consider inline SVG copied from existing usage or a tiny local Astro icon wrapper.
-
-For docs MDX components:
-
-- Prefer Starlight built-ins for asides, badges, file trees, link cards, steps, and tabs when they match the current design.
-- Add local Astro wrappers only when the current docs visual language needs a specific button, badge, card, callout, or chart treatment.
-- Style any custom docs component from shared tokens, not from new one-off colors.
-- Do not initialize a full shadcn/ui Astro template over this repo.
-- Evaluate shadcn/ui for Astro only as a follow-up for components that are being rewritten anyway.
-
-## Phase 5: Astro shell and web pages
-
-Move these concerns out of `web/src/routes/__root.tsx`:
-
-- `html lang="en"`
-- theme bootstrap script
-- global stylesheet import
-- favicon and manifest links
-- skip-to-content link
-- navbar
-- footer
-- Firebase Analytics loader
-- development-only tools
-- 404 and error UI
-
-The layout should accept explicit metadata props:
-
-```ts
-type PageMeta = {
-  title: string;
-  description?: string;
-  canonicalPath: string;
-  image?: string;
-  robots?: string;
-  jsonLd?: unknown;
-};
-```
-
-Do not rely on implicit route metadata until canonical behavior has been verified.
-
-Migrate web pages from lowest to highest interaction risk:
-
-1. Legal pages: `privacy`, `terms`.
-2. `changelog`.
-3. `faq`.
-4. `blog` index.
-5. `blog/[slug]`.
-6. Home page.
-7. Disabled landing previews, if we decide to keep them.
-
-For each page:
-
-- Port route metadata first.
-- Port visible HTML second.
-- Compare rendered HTML for title, description, canonical, OG, Twitter, and JSON-LD tags.
-- Verify generated output paths match the old no-trailing-slash app scheme.
-- Verify links to `/docs/**` point to the new Starlight docs.
-
-## Phase 6: Blog content collections
-
-Keep blog posts in `web/src/content/blog/*.mdx`.
-
-Then:
-
-1. Rebuild `/blog` with `getCollection("blog")`.
-2. Rebuild `/blog/[slug]` with `getStaticPaths()`.
-3. Use `render(post)` for the MDX body.
-4. Preserve the existing JSON-LD shape from `web/src/lib/seo.ts`.
-5. Preserve generated OG paths: `/og/blog/<slug>.png`.
-6. Preserve date sorting and prev/next post navigation.
-7. Delete `web/src/lib/blog.ts`, `web/src/lib/blog-content.ts`, and `mdxFrontmatterOnly()` only after the blog output matches.
-
-## Phase 7: React island strategy
-
-The initial migration should keep React where the current component is interactive:
-
-- `Navbar`
-- `ThemeToggle`
-- `SearchDialog`
-- mobile nav sheet
-- landing demos with state, timers, mouse tracking, copy buttons, or tabs
-
-Use Astro components for static wrappers and pages.
-
-When a React component stays as an island:
-
-- Replace TanStack Router `Link` with plain `<a>` or a small local link wrapper.
-- Keep props serializable.
-- Hydrate with the narrowest directive that works:
-  - `client:load` for navbar/search/theme controls.
-  - `client:visible` for below-the-fold landing demos.
-  - `client:idle` for analytics or non-critical enhancements.
-
-After parity, reduce React islands in a second pass:
-
-- Convert footer to Astro.
-- Convert legal page wrappers to Astro.
-- Convert FAQ to static `details`/`summary` if the design remains acceptable.
-- Extract `buttonVariants` and `badgeVariants` into framework-neutral files so Astro and React components can share classes.
-
-## Phase 8: Search and Pagefind
-
-Current search behavior:
-
-- `web/src/components/search-dialog.tsx` lazy-loads `/pagefind/pagefind.js`.
-- The build runs `npx pagefind --site dist/client` after all site output exists.
-- The index includes marketing, blog, and docs pages.
-
-Starlight also has Pagefind-based search support. Final architecture must choose one Pagefind owner.
-
-Preferred first-cut policy:
-
-- Keep the existing post-build `npx pagefind --site dist/client` step because it indexes the combined site.
-- Keep the existing custom `SearchDialog` for global search.
-- Set `pagefind: false` in the Starlight config for the first cut so Starlight does not generate or expect a separate Pagefind index.
-- Override Starlight's `Search` component only if docs need a search button in the Starlight header; the override should open or link to the same global search experience.
-- If we keep Starlight's search UI, configure it to use the same final `/pagefind` index and verify there is only one `/pagefind` output.
-
-Validation:
-
-- Search opens from the marketing navbar.
-- Search opens from docs if docs header exposes it.
-- Results include `/docs/**` and `/blog/**`.
-- Search result URLs use canonical no-trailing-slash app URLs and valid docs URLs.
-- No duplicate Pagefind assets or stale indexes are emitted.
-
-## Phase 9: Build pipeline
-
-Keep the final output directory as `dist/client`.
-
-Target final build script:
-
-```json
-{
-  "scripts": {
-    "build": "rm -rf dist && node scripts/generate-og-images.ts && astro build && npx pagefind --site dist/client && node scripts/generate-llms-txt.ts --output dist/client && node scripts/generate-md-alt.ts --output dist/client"
-  }
-}
-```
-
-Update scripts:
-
-- `scripts/build-docs.ts`: remove in the final architecture. It only exists for Docusaurus.
-- `scripts/generate-og-images.ts`: stop writing docs OG fallback to `../docs/static/img/og-docs.png`; write it into `web/public/og/docs.png` or another Astro-owned public path.
-- `scripts/generate-llms-txt.ts`: read docs from `web/src/content/docs/docs`, not `../docs/docs`.
-- `scripts/generate-md-alt.ts`: read docs from `web/src/content/docs/docs`, not `../docs/docs`.
-- `scripts/lib/docs-md.ts`: update comments and route resolution for Starlight-at-`/docs` content. Ensure docs index maps to `/docs/`, not `/docs/docs`.
-
-Do not generate Markdown alternatives before Astro build if Astro deletes `dist/client`; keep them after build.
-
-## Phase 10: Sitemap, robots, and SEO
-
-Preserve the current URL policy:
-
-- App pages have no trailing slash.
-- Blog post `lastmod` comes from frontmatter dates.
-- Disabled preview routes are excluded.
-- Docs remain under `/docs/**`.
-- `robots.txt` continues to advertise app and docs sitemaps unless we intentionally change the sitemap structure.
-
-Current expected sitemap entries:
-
-- `https://gpui-query.freeoxide.com/sitemap.xml`
-- `https://gpui-query.freeoxide.com/docs/sitemap.xml`
-
-Starlight can generate sitemap data when `site` is configured, but verify whether it emits the exact `/docs/sitemap.xml` artifact we currently advertise. If it cannot preserve the existing docs sitemap path, create a custom endpoint or update `robots.txt` only after an explicit SEO decision.
-
-SEO parity checks:
-
-- App canonical tags keep no trailing slash.
-- Docs canonical tags are under `/docs/**`.
-- Blog JSON-LD still renders as `BlogPosting`.
-- Blog index JSON-LD still renders as `Blog`.
-- FAQ JSON-LD still includes every visible question and answer.
-- Changelog JSON-LD still reports the latest version.
-- Homepage JSON-LD still renders as `SoftwareSourceCode`.
-- OG images resolve for homepage, blog, blog posts, changelog, FAQ, and docs.
-- `robots.txt` does not point at a missing sitemap.
-
-## Phase 11: Cloudflare deployment and cleanup
-
-After the Astro build is the default:
-
-1. Keep Cloudflare Pages deploy from `dist/client`.
-2. Remove TanStack Start's Worker entry from `web/wrangler.jsonc`.
-3. Remove old `run_worker_first` rules if they only existed for TanStack Start dev routing.
-4. Re-check `assets.html_handling`. The old config used `auto-trailing-slash`; verify it does not reintroduce redirects for canonical no-slash app URLs.
-5. Update GitHub workflows only if deploy commands or output paths change.
-6. Update `justfile` from `Website (TanStack Start)` to `Website (Astro)`.
-7. Update docs recipes from Docusaurus commands to Astro/Starlight commands.
-8. Update `web/README.md`.
-9. Update `web/AGENTS.md` so it no longer instructs contributors to use Vite+ or TanStack Start.
-10. Update footer text from "Built with TanStack Start" to "Built with Astro".
-
-## Phase 12: Dependency cleanup
-
-Remove these only after imports and scripts are gone:
-
-- `@tanstack/react-start`
-- `@tanstack/react-router`
-- `@tanstack/router-plugin`
-- `@tanstack/devtools-vite`
-- `@cloudflare/vite-plugin`, if static Pages no longer needs it
-- `vite-plus`
-- Vite+ overrides for `vite` and `vitest`, if no longer needed
-- old `web/vite.config.ts`
-- TanStack route tree files
-- Docusaurus packages in `docs/package.json`
-- `docs/package-lock.json`
-- `docs/docusaurus.config.ts`
-- `docs/sidebars.ts`
-- `docs/src/theme/Logo/index.tsx`
-- `docs/src/firebaseAnalytics.ts`
-- Docusaurus-specific CSS after it has been ported to Starlight
-
-Keep initially:

-## Validation checklist
-
-Run:
-
-```bash
-cd web
-bun install --frozen-lockfile
-bun run build
-npx wrangler pages dev dist/client
-```
-
-Then verify these routes:
-
-- `/`
-- `/blog`
-- `/blog/cache-policies-explained`
-- `/blog/cooperative-cancellation`
-- `/faq`
-- `/changelog`
-- `/privacy`
-- `/terms`
-- `/docs/`
-- `/docs/getting-started/installation`
-- `/docs/getting-started/quick-start`
-- `/docs/api/queries`
-- `/docs/api/mutations`
-- `/docs/api/infinite-queries`
-- `/docs/api/query-client`
-- `/docs/guides/caching`
-- `/docs/guides/error-handling`
-- `/docs/guides/retry`
-- `/docs/guides/persistence`
-- `/docs/guides/query-keys`
-- `/docs/guides/select-pattern`
-- `/docs/advanced/comparison`
-- `/docs/advanced/devtools`
-- `/docs/advanced/observers`
-- `/docs/advanced/api-reference`
-- `/docs/advanced/migration`
-- `/pagefind/pagefind.js`
-- `/llms.txt`
-- `/llms-full.txt`
-- `/sitemap.xml`
-- `/docs/sitemap.xml`
-
-Artifact checks:
-
-- No generated app page unexpectedly moves from `foo.html` to `foo/index.html`.
-- `/docs/` resolves without a 404.
-- Docs internal links do not point to root `/api/**`, `/guides/**`, `/advanced/**`, or `/getting-started/**`.
-- Generated Markdown alternatives exist under `/docs/**/*.md`.
-- `llms.txt` URLs point to `/docs/**`.
-- OG docs image is generated from the same OG template as the rest of the site.
-- There is only one final Pagefind index.
-
-SEO checks:
-
-- Canonical tags match the expected URL list.
-- App pages do not redirect from canonical URLs.
-- Blog JSON-LD still renders as `BlogPosting`.
-- FAQ JSON-LD still includes every visible question and answer.
-- Changelog JSON-LD still reports the latest version.
-- Docs pages have title and description metadata.
-- OG images resolve.
-- `robots.txt` advertises only existing sitemaps.
-
-UI checks:
-
-- Marketing pages match the current theme.
-- Starlight docs match the current docs theme closely enough to count as a migration, not a redesign.
-- Light mode and dark mode work on app pages.
-- Light mode and dark mode work on docs pages.
-- Theme selection stays in sync when moving between app and docs.
-- Chart color variables are available in app and docs CSS.
-- Navbar mobile menu works.
-- Search opens with the button and keyboard shortcut.
-- Pagefind returns docs and blog results after a production build.
-- Landing interactive panels hydrate only where needed.
-- No major layout shift appears from delayed islands.
-- Code blocks, tables, asides, badges, and cards are readable in light and dark mode.
-
-## Merge strategy
-
-Use three PRs if possible:
-
-1. Astro web migration with React islands preserved and Docusaurus still available for comparison.
-2. Starlight docs migration with URL, theme, search, sitemap, and generated artifact parity.
-3. Cleanup PR that removes TanStack Start, Docusaurus, Vite+ assumptions, and temporary comparison code.
-
-The first production-facing Astro PR should be boring: same pages, same URLs, same design, smaller framework surface. The Starlight PR should be judged by docs parity first: same `/docs/**` URLs, same theme, same content, same search visibility, and no missing generated docs artifacts.

+## WebAssembly
+
+The crate compiles for `wasm32-unknown-unknown` with the default feature set and with the `reqwest` feature — the same feature flags work on both targets. On wasm, `ReqwestBackend` runs on reqwest's browser-fetch backend and TLS is the browser's job; the `rustls-tls` feature that the `reqwest` feature enables for native use is inert there, so it is harmless to leave on.
+
+For custom backends, `HttpBackend::fetch` bounds its returned future with `MaybeSend` (exported at the crate root) instead of `Send`. On native targets `MaybeSend` is exactly `Send`, so an existing impl written with `+ Send` keeps compiling unchanged — no migration needed. Use `+ MaybeSend` only when a backend must compile on both native and wasm targets: on `wasm32`, browser-fetch futures (reqwest's included) are inherently `!Send` because they hold JS values, so a `+ Send` bound would not compile there.
+
+```rust
+use std::future::Future;
+use gpui_query_http::{BackendResponse, Conditionals, HttpBackend, MaybeSend};
+
+struct MyBackend;
+
+impl HttpBackend for MyBackend {
+    type Error = MyError;
+
+    fn fetch(
+        &self,
+        url: &str,
+        conditionals: Conditionals,
+    ) -> impl Future<Output = Result<BackendResponse, MyError>> + MaybeSend {
+        // perform the conditional GET ...
+    }
+}
+```

+## [Unreleased]
+
+> Wasm32 compile support for `core` and `gpui-query-http`, publish fixes for the satellite crates, and real test coverage in CI.
+
+### Added
+
+#### `gpui-query` — wasm32 support for the `core` layer
+
+- The `core` layer builds for `wasm32-unknown-unknown`: on wasm targets `ahash` switches from runtime RNG to `compile-time-rng` internally (its `runtime-rng` default pulls `getrandom`, which cannot compile there), so no consumer configuration is needed. The `client`, `hook`, and `persist` layers stay native-only — they depend on `gpui`, which does not build for `wasm32-unknown-unknown`.
+- The wasm support boundary is documented in the root and main-crate READMEs.
+
+#### `gpui-query-http` — wasm32 support, including the `reqwest` feature
+
+- The crate compiles for `wasm32-unknown-unknown` with the default feature set and with the `reqwest` feature — the same feature flags work on both targets. On wasm, `ReqwestBackend` runs on reqwest's browser-fetch backend and TLS is the browser's job.
+- `MaybeSend` marker alias for `Send`, relaxed to a no-op on `wasm32` (exported at the crate root): `HttpBackend::fetch` bounds its returned future with `MaybeSend` instead of `Send`. On native targets the bound is exactly `Send`, so existing `+ Send` backend impls keep compiling unchanged; on `wasm32` it drops the requirement, because browser-fetch futures (reqwest's included) are inherently `!Send` — they hold JS values.
+- The README gained a WebAssembly section showing how to write a backend that compiles on both native and wasm targets.
+
+#### CI — wasm compile guard
+
+- New "Wasm Check" workflow (plus a `just wasm-check` recipe mirroring it) builds the core-only main crate and the `http` satellite — with and without `reqwest` — for `wasm32-unknown-unknown`, then the native all-features build, on every push and pull request, so the wasm boundary cannot silently regress.
+
+### Changed
+
+- CI now runs `cargo test --all-features` on every push and pull request (new "Cargo Test" workflow). Previously every workflow was build-only and the full suite ran only locally via `just test`; the job installs the X11 link dependencies (`libx11-xcb-dev`, `libxkbcommon-x11-dev`) that GPUI-linked test binaries need.
+- Publish workflows' rust-cache override pointed at a member directory cargo never writes to, so target-dir caching never hit; the override is dropped in favor of the default workspace-root mapping. `gpui-query-legacy` keeps its mapping intentionally — it is excluded from the workspace and is its own workspace root.
+- The PR checks workflow now also validates changes to the sibling web deploy workflows (`deploy.yml`, `web-preview.yml`), which previously triggered no checks at all.
+
+### Fixed
+
+#### `gpui-query-http` — publish blocker and docs.rs metadata
+
+- The `gpui-query` dependency now carries `version = "0.2"` alongside its path: `cargo publish` strips path overrides, so the previously versionless dependency made the crate unpublishable.
+- docs.rs now renders with every feature and annotates `reqwest`-gated items with the feature that enables them, so `ReqwestBackend` and its module appear with live intra-doc links instead of dead ones.
+- Three redundant intra-doc link targets simplified; the rendered docs are unchanged and rustdoc's warnings are gone.
+
+#### `gpui-query-persist` — publish blocker and docs.rs metadata
+
+- Same publish blocker fixed: the `gpui-query` path dependency gains `version = "0.2"`, and `cargo publish --dry-run` now verifies the crate against the crates.io release.
+- Fleet-consistent docs.rs metadata added (`all-features = true`, `rustdoc-args = ["--cfg", "docsrs"]`); behaviorally a no-op today, as the crate has no optional features.
+- One redundant intra-doc link simplified.
+
+#### `gpui-query` — warning-free core-only builds
+
+- `core`-only builds no longer warn about the unused `last_updated_at_ms` accessor (only the `client` layer reads it).
+
+#### CI — release workflow guards
+
+- Changelog Release now fetches tags on checkout, so the "already released?" guard actually sees existing tags instead of always re-attempting the release.
+- The publish and web-deploy jobs run only when the guard decides a release should happen; merging CHANGELOG edits that do not cut a release (such as new `[Unreleased]` entries) no longer re-runs `cargo publish` or redeploys the website.

Subject: [PATCH 021/111] fix: redact case-variant home paths in error
 sanitization

sanitize matched the lowercased text against the mixed-case needle
"/Users/", so macOS home paths leaked through QueryError::sanitized().
Needles are now matched case-insensitively per the documented (?i)
semantics; the test that pinned the leak now asserts redaction, plus a
new sanitize unit test.

Also trims and tightens the core layer:

- sanitize: merge duplicate redact helpers into one pass, one lowercase
  allocation per rule, const needle tables
- key: pre-sized single allocation for to_path instead of O(n^2) concat
- drop dead format_duration helper and its two unit tests; delegate
  record_stale_cache_hit to record_cache_hit; fold single-use helpers
- strip audit-history comments, tighten doc comments, fix 5 broken
  rustdoc links in core
- gitignore .z-proflow/ state dir

 //! Infinite query resource for managing paginated data.
 //!
-//! **v2 fixes**:
-//! - Default `max_pages` is `Some(50)` instead of `None` (prevents unbounded growth)
-//! - `enforce_max_pages_remove_front` uses `Vec::drain` instead of O(n²) `remove(0)`
-//! - Old signal is cancelled before creating a new one on `begin_fetch_next`/`begin_fetch_previous`
-//!
-//! **Audit 2 fixes**:
-//! - `max_pages` of 0 is treated as unbounded (no eviction) to prevent draining all pages
-//! - Cross-direction request replacement (e.g. `begin_fetch_previous` while `begin_fetch_next` is
-//!   active) is explicitly documented for `RequestPolicy::LatestWins`
-//! - `retry_count` and `ignored_results` fields track diagnostics, matching `QueryResource`
-//! - `complete_page_success`/`complete_page_failure` increment `ignored_results` when the request
-//!   ID does not match
-//! - `enforce_max_pages_remove_front`/`enforce_max_pages_remove_back` return evicted pages so
-//!   callers can log or process them
-//! - `reset()` preserves `max_pages` and resets `has_next_page` to its default (`true`);
-//!   consumers should be aware that `has_next_page=true` after reset is an assumption
-//!
-//! **Audit 3 fixes**:
-//! - Internal storage uses `VecDeque` instead of `Vec` so that `prepend_page` /
-//!   `push_front` is O(1) amortized rather than O(n). `VecDeque::push_front`,
-//!   `push_back`, `pop_back`, and `drain` are all O(1) amortized or better.
-//! - `FetchDirection` controls default assumptions for `has_next_page` and
-//!   `has_previous_page`. Forward-only queries (the common case) default
-//!   `has_next_page = true`, while bidirectional queries default both to `false`
-//!   and require explicit opt-in via the fetcher's `has_more` return value.
+//! Page storage is a `VecDeque<Arc<T>>`, so appending and prepending pages
+//! are both O(1) amortized. A bounded `max_pages` (default 50) evicts the
+//! oldest pages on the opposite side of a push; `set_max_pages(Some(0))` is
+//! treated as unbounded. [`FetchDirection`] controls the default
+//! `has_next_page` / `has_previous_page` assumptions on construction and

Subject: [PATCH 022/111] fix: saturate gc thresholds and prune stale persisted
 metadata

- gc_threshold * SUCCESS_GC_MULTIPLIER now saturates; with_gc_time(u64::MAX)
  no longer panics (debug) or wraps into a smaller success threshold that
  mass-evicts cached entries (release)
- gc_with_time prunes persisted_meta down to keys still present in a query
  or infinite bucket, closing unbounded growth from churned Fetched::meta keys
- perf: for_each_matching_entry collects upgraded entities in one pass;
  invalidate_matching only updates entities with a live last_updated_at
  (no observer notify storm on bulk invalidation); prepare_fetch/prefetch
  merge into a single entity.update lock cycle
- collapse QueryBucket/InfiniteQueryBucket duplication into a generic
  ResourceBucket<R> + BucketResource trait in bucket/shared.rs; public API
  unchanged, ops/infinite_bucket are thin facades
- strip audit/history comments from client + scoped tests, tighten docs to
  1-3 lines; drop dead resource_with_sequencer test helper

tests: 819 passed / 0 failed (unchanged); clippy -D warnings clean;
client-scope rustdoc warnings at 0

-//! - Enforces minimum GC time of 1000ms to avoid aggressive eviction (finding 1)
-//! - Implements actual policy updates and calls them from `get_or_create` (findings 2, 5)
-//!
-//! **Audit 3 fixes (this pass)**:
-//! - GC reads entity state directly via `entity.read(cx)` instead of a cached
-//!   `StatusSnapshot` (CL2/#106). The snapshot machinery was never refreshed
-//!   from production, so it was stale — GC now reads the source of truth.
-//! - `observer_count` removed (#8): it was never incremented from production
-//!   hooks (Drop has no `cx` in GPUI), so it was always 0. `WeakEntity::upgrade()`
-//!   is the sole liveness probe.
-//! - `retain`/`release`/`update_status_snapshot` removed as dead code (#75).
-//! - Opportunistic GC trigger added (CL1/#105): see `bucket::shared`.
-//! - `MIN_GC_TIME_MS` exported once from `types` and reused everywhere (#69).
-//! - Shared constants/helpers extracted to `bucket::shared` (#10, conservative).
+//! `ResourceBucket` in `shared` holds the machinery shared by
+//! [`QueryBucket`] and [`InfiniteQueryBucket`](crate::client::InfiniteQueryBucket):
+//! weak-entity entries with co-located request sequencers, capacity-bounded
+//! eviction, GC, bulk key-filter operations, and diagnostics.

-//!
-//! **Audit fixes (this pass)**:
-//! - GC reads entity state directly via `entity.read(cx)` (CL2/#106) instead
-//!   of a stale `StatusSnapshot`.
-//! - `max_entries` cap + `evict_oldest` added (#1) — previously successful
-//!   infinite resources were never evicted, causing unbounded memory growth.
-//! - `Cancelled` added to the evictable set (#107).
-//! - `retain`/`release`/`observer_count`/`update_status_snapshot` removed
-//!   (#8, #75) — `observer_count` was never incremented from production.
-//! - `invalidate_matching` collects `QueryKey`s instead of pinning strong
-//!   `Entity` handles (#18).
-//! - Opportunistic GC trigger added (CL1/#105).
+//! Shares its machinery with [`QueryBucket`] through
+//! [`ResourceBucket`](super::bucket::shared::ResourceBucket); only the erased
+//! trait impl and the first-page persistence path are specific to infinite

 //! Type-partitioned bucket for mutation resources.
 //!
-//! **v2 fix**: Implements actual GC instead of the v1 no-op.
-//!
-//! Each entry tracks an `updated_at` timestamp set at insertion. The GC removes
-//! entries whose `updated_at` is older than `gc_time_ms` **and** that are not
-//! currently loading. The erased `gc` signature carries `cx`, so the retain
-//! closure reads live entity state directly via `entity.read(cx)` for the
-//! loading and status checks; the timestamp stored on the entry is used only
-//! for age-based filtering.
-//!
-//! **Audit fixes (this pass)**:
-//! - `max_entries` cap + `evict_oldest` added (#2) — previously successful
-//!   mutation resources were never evicted, causing unbounded memory growth.
-//! - `observer_count` / `retain()` / `release()` removed (#8) — they were
-//!   never incremented from production and are now redundant with
-//!   `WeakEntity::upgrade()` liveness, matching `QueryBucket`.
-//! - GC rewritten as a single `HashMap::retain` closure (#91) — it only reads
-//!   `entity.read(cx)` (no update), so it is GPUI-safe and avoids the
-//!   collect-ids-then-remove two-phase dance.
-//! - `Success` mutations now evictable (#108) when their age exceeds
-//!   `SUCCESS_GC_MULTIPLIER * gc_time_ms`, mirroring `QueryBucket::gc`.
-//! - Local `MIN_GC_TIME_MS` removed (#69); imported from `bucket::types`.
-//! - `insert` now takes a live `cx` (renamed from `_cx`) and evicts the oldest
-//!   entry before inserting when at capacity (#114).
-//! - `touch()` / `set_loading()` / `set_not_loading()` removed as dead code
-//!   (#75). GC recency now prefers `MutationResource::last_updated_at_ms`
-//!   (terminal-completion time) over the entry's insertion time (audit #112),
-//!   so a recently-completed mutation inserted long ago is not evicted
-//!   prematurely; insertion time remains the fallback for never-completed
-//!   (Idle / in-flight) mutations.
+//! Mutations are keyed by a generated numeric id (they have no query key),
+//! and GC measures recency from the resource's completion time, falling back
+//! to the insertion timestamp for mutations that never completed.

Subject: [PATCH 023/111] refactor: consolidate duplicated hook/fetch impls in
 hook layer

- collapse use_query/use_query_with_policy into a private use_query_impl
  generic over FetchedLike<T>; merge fetch_query/fetch_query_with_policy
  into fetch_query_impl
- unify mutation begin_and_spawn paths (legacy Fn(V) adapter preserves the
  single V::clone-per-attempt semantics); delete dead legacy runners
  run_mutation_loop/run_mutation_loop_with_callbacks; dedupe four identical
  callback blocks via fire_error_callbacks
- strip audit/history narration from hook sources and scoped tests; tighten
  pub docs to 1-3 lines, doctests kept passing (hook scope 10/10)
- fix the 10 hook/* rustdoc warnings: unresolved QuerySignal/CachePolicy/
  QueryOptions links and links to private begin_and_spawn items
- reuse the destructured retry_policy local in use_query_impl (one fewer
  entity read per hook call)

No public API changes; all restructuring is private. Gates on the commit
tree: cargo test --all-features 819/0 (zero delta), clippy -D warnings
clean, cargo doc warnings 12->2 (sole survivor is persist.rs, area 4
scope).

-//! are kept for backward compatibility and adapt via a thin wrapper closure
-//! that performs the single `V::clone` per attempt the old API requires.
-//!
-//! `run_mutation_loop` and `run_mutation_loop_with_callbacks` handle the
-//! async retry logic with backoff, cancelled-mutation detection, and
-//! lifecycle callback invocation.

Subject: [PATCH 024/111] fix: close persist_with snapshot race and rebuild
 multi-segment keys in hydrate

persist_with could lose the last mutation before teardown: a bump landing
between the armed task's take() and clear(armed) stashed into the pending
slot, saw armed=true, and skipped spawning while the armed task had
already drained. Snapshot collection now happens at drain time via a
foreground cx.spawn task that disarms before collecting, so a bump either
waits on a task that collects after it or arms a fresh one; the pending
slot is gone and drop of PersistHandle still lets an armed task finish
its save.

hydrate rebuilt every stored key as a single segment, so
PersistFilter::Exact/Prefix and set_query_data priming silently never
matched multi-segment keys. Stored paths are now split back into segments
on "::" (to_path was already joining with unescaped "::", so no
previously-working key regresses).

Perf: one serialization per debounce window instead of per bump
(collection at drain time captures the latest state); hydrate loop
reordered entries-outer/steps-inner so key reconstruction and
filter/max_age run once per entry; dead TypeId dropped from
DeserializerRegistry::steps.

Trim: module doc de-historicized, pub docs tightened, persist.rs
FilePersister intra-doc link replaced with plain text (last workspace doc
warning), test narration stripped to short constraint comments with setup
deduped locally; all 16 test fns and asserts kept.

Gates: cargo test --all-features 819/0 (zero delta), clippy -D warnings
clean, cargo doc 0 warnings.

Subject: [PATCH 025/111] fix: harden cache-control parsing and lock order in
 gpui-query-http

- max-age/s-maxage/stale-while-revalidate digit-overflow now saturates
  to u64::MAX per RFC 9111 1.2.2 instead of failing the whole fetch
- no-store/no-cache dominates from any position: parse errors deferred
  until after the directive scan (RFC 9111 5.2.2)
- directive splitting is quote-aware (backslash escapes included), so
  quoted-string commas can no longer smuggle in a max-age directive
- duplicate directives resolve first-occurrence-wins per RFC 9111 4.2.1
- store_fresh now locks meta then bodies, matching fetch, closing an
  AB-BA deadlock between the two sync critical sections
- malformed Cache-Control on a 200 degrades to serve-with-NoCache
  instead of discarding a good body; InvalidPolicy stays in the pub enum
- freshness lifetime uses checked_add so hydrated CacheMeta cannot panic
- perf: eq_ignore_ascii_case directive matching, move cached_meta on
  304, store_fresh is sync, reqwest backend takes the header map
- 10 new adversarial tests (parsing + fetch-level)

Subject: [PATCH 026/111] refactor: trim file persister plumbing and test-lock
 atomic write integrity
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Atomic-write path audited sound (NamedTempFile in the target directory,
fsync before rename, parent-dir fsync); temp files now carry a .tmp suffix
so crash orphans are identifiable. load no longer takes the write lock —
the atomic rename guarantees lock-free reads always see a complete file.
Owner-only 0o600 perms (tempfile + rename) documented and locked by a
cfg(unix) mode test. Dead plumbing deleted (empty_snapshot, fullfsync_err,
log_or_eprint); corrupt-load paths unified; meta Option via .transpose().
+4 integrity tests: missing parent dirs, no leftover temp files, 0o600
mode, second-instance overwrite stays parseable. Module doc and comments
stripped. Gates: 833/0 tests, clippy -D warnings clean, doc 0 warnings.

-//! runs its async methods on GPUI's `background_executor`.
-//!
-//! # Blocking I/O note
-//!
-//! `FilePersister` performs synchronous `std::fs` I/O inside its async `load`
-//! and `save` bodies and is intended to run on GPUI's `background_executor`,
-//! which is a dedicated blocking-friendly thread pool. Callers running on a
-//! `tokio` multi-thread runtime that need non-blocking semantics should wrap
-//! `load`/`save` in `spawn_blocking` (e.g. via a `tokio::task::spawn_blocking`
-//! → bridge) to avoid stalling executor threads.
+//! Saves on one persister are serialized by a `std::sync::Mutex`. Loads skip
+//! the lock: the rename is atomic, so a load concurrent with a save sees
+//! either the old or the new complete file. Two persister instances on the
+//! same path likewise cannot corrupt each other; each save replaces the
+//! whole file and the last writer wins, matching the [`Persister`] contract.
 //!
-//! # Windows `ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED` (retryable)
+//! The async methods do synchronous `std::fs` I/O with no await points, which
+//! is what GPUI's blocking-friendly `background_executor` is for. On a tokio
+//! runtime, wrap `load`/`save` in `spawn_blocking` to avoid stalling worker
+//! threads.
 //!
-//! On Windows the atomic replace can fail with `ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED` when an
-//! antivirus scanner or concurrent reader holds the destination. This is
-//! surfaced as [`PersistError::Permission`] (rather than flattened into an IO
-//! error), preserving the retryable signal so callers can back off and retry
-//! the save. All other persist failures are returned as
-//! [`PersistError::Io`] carrying the original `std::io::Error` (kind + source
-//! chain intact) so no diagnostic detail is lost.
+//! On Windows the atomic replace can fail with `ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED` while an
+//! antivirus scanner or concurrent reader holds the destination; that is
+//! surfaced as the retryable [`PersistError::Permission`] rather than
+//! [`PersistError::Io`], which still carries the original error (kind and

Subject: [PATCH 027/111] fix: lock multi-segment hydrate rebuild and correct
 stale docs

New regression test test_hydrate_rebuilds_multi_segment_keys: a stored
"users::42::posts" entry primes under ["users","42","posts"], pinned via
both Prefix and Exact filters (both fail on the pre-split single-segment
rebuild). hydrate doc now discloses the lossy split - a single-segment
key containing "::" hydrates under a different key; escaping the
separator stays deferred with the PERSIST_VERSION bump. Fix one-char doc
typo in select.rs (Option<Arc<T> missing its closing ">"). Correct the
gpui-query-http cache comments to the real invariant (scoped blocks,
never held across an .await; drop the false deadlock-avoidance
rationale). Delete two gpui-query-persist inline comments that restated
their docs.rs surface. Gates: 834/0 tests, clippy -D warnings clean,
doc 0 warnings.

Subject: [PATCH 028/111] chore: humanize readmes and add hard comment rules

Rewrite all four READMEs in the repo's plain house voice: no em or en
dashes, no curly quotes, no padded triads or summary boilerplate. Code
blocks and version literals untouched.

Accuracy fixes ride along: the http README now documents the
malformed-Cache-Control degrade (fetch serves the body uncacheable,
InvalidPolicy only surfaces for direct policy callers) plus
first-occurrence-wins duplicates and digit-overflow saturation; the
persist README's stale 'reads take the same lock briefly' line now says
loads skip the mutex and the atomic rename keeps them complete.

AGENTS.md gains a Hard rules section: inline comments 1-2 lines of
non-obvious constraints only, no narration or change history, no
restating the code; doc comments 1-3 lines; all prose humanized before
merge; trimming beats adding. CLAUDE.md's unique skills install note is
merged into Conventions and the file becomes a symlink to AGENTS.md.

-- **Tolerant load.** A missing file yields an empty snapshot. A corrupt or unparseable file is logged and treated as empty (no panic). A version mismatch returns `PersistError::VersionMismatch`, so callers can distinguish "corrupt" from "wrong format".
-- **No `tokio`.** Writes are serialized through a `std::sync::Mutex` and run on GPUI's `background_executor`; reads take the same lock briefly. The persister performs synchronous `std::fs` I/O, which is what the background executor is designed for.

Subject: [PATCH 029/111] refactor: drop request-id rehash and tighten bucket
 comments

- link the sanitized-length doc to SANITIZE_MAX_LEN instead of a
  hard-coded 512, silencing the private-doc-link lint with an expect
- collapse the near-duplicate bucket-sequencer comments in the
  infinite-query helpers to one tight note each
- mint request ids inside the bucket lookup via
  QueryClient::resource_with_request_id so prepare_fetch_query and
  prepare_prefetch_query stop hashing the key twice

Subject: [PATCH 032/111] feat: prefer max-age over s-maxage in private http
 cache and refresh agents docs
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

HttpCache is a private (client-side) cache, and RFC 9111 §5.2.2.10 scopes
s-maxage to shared caches, so max-age now wins when both are present while
s-maxage still applies as the fallback when alone. Tests cover the new
precedence, the s-maxage-alone fallback, and no-store overriding s-maxage.
AGENTS.md version literals move 0.2.0 to 0.2.1, em dashes become plain
punctuation, and the skills bullet regains invalidation and observers.

+- Copywriting: all prose (comments, READMEs, docs) must read human-written: no em-dash cadence, no rule-of-three padding, no "seamless/robust/leverage" vocabulary.
+- Gates: `cargo test --all-features`, `cargo clippy --all-features --all-targets -- -D warnings`, and `cargo doc --all-features --no-deps` (zero warnings) all pass before a change is done. Bare `cargo test` skips the hook/persist modules; that is not a green run.
+- API stability: these are published crates. Never remove, rename, or retype a pub item in a patch release. Add instead of break.
+- Untrusted input: parsing or deserializing anything from disk or network returns `Err`, never panics. No `unwrap`/`expect`/indexing on unbounded values, and arithmetic on them uses checked or saturating ops. New parse or serde paths get adversarial tests.
+- Secrets in errors: error text that can carry user data goes through sanitization before Display, Debug, or serde. New redaction gaps (case or whitespace variants) are bugs, not style.
+- Cache semantics: `gpui-query-http` follows RFC 9111. It is a private cache: `max-age` beats `s-maxage`, `no-store` dominates from any position, duplicate directives are first-occurrence-wins, and directive values saturate instead of erroring.
+- Disk writes: atomic only. Temp file, fsync, rename, fsync the parent dir. Cache files are `0o600`.
+- Perf: no redundant hashing or serialization per debounce or poll cycle. Clone at ownership boundaries, not for convenience.
 - Trimming beats adding. Dead code, duplicated plumbing, and comments that restate their docs get deleted, not maintained.
+- Every bug fix lands with a test that fails on the old code.

-//! - **Signal-always** — fetchers always receive `QuerySignal` for cooperative cancellation
-//! - **Fixed signal lifecycle** — signals are cancelled on LatestWins replacement
-//! - **Fixed retry loops** — single counter, signal checked between attempts
-//! - **Efficient re-renders** — `cx.notify()` only on terminal state changes
-//! - **`QueryError: Display + Error`** — ecosystem interop with `?` and `anyhow`
-//! - **`AHashMap`** for trusted cache keys — ~2x faster lookups

-/// Design rationale: completing a request deliberately does NOT cancel the
-/// signal. This is a conscious design choice with three motivations:
-///
-/// 1. **Subscription hand-off**: Consumers that subscribed to the signal
-///    during the loading phase may still need to read the signal's state
-///    (e.g. to distinguish normal completion from cancellation). Cancelling
-///    on completion would conflate the two cases.
-///
-/// 2. **Refetch within the same signal**: If a refetch is triggered soon
-///    after completion (e.g. stale-while-revalidate), reusing the same
-///    signal avoids a cancel-then-recreate race window where subscribers
-///    could miss the transition.
-///
-/// 3. **What would break**: If completion cancelled the signal, any
-///    subscriber that checked `is_cancelled()` to decide whether to
-///    discard buffered data would incorrectly discard a successful result.
-///    The signal's cancellation would be ambiguous -- it could mean
-///    "aborted" or "finished successfully".
-///
-/// Only explicit `cancel()` or `reset()` cancel the signal, because those
-/// represent true interruptions where subscribers should stop work.

-//! (`F_FULLFSYNC` on macOS, plain `fsync` elsewhere), then renames it over
-//! the target. On POSIX the parent directory is fsynced after the replace.
-//! A crash mid-write therefore leaves the previous file intact plus, at
-//! worst, one stray `<name>.<random>.tmp` sibling. The file is created with
-//! owner-only permissions (`0o600` on Unix), since a query cache is app- and
-//! user-private data.
-//!
-//! # Tolerant load
-//!
-//! A missing file yields an empty snapshot; a corrupt or unparseable one is

-//! [`PersistError::VersionMismatch`] so callers can tell "corrupt" from
-//! "wrong format".
-//!
-//! # Concurrency
-//!
-//! Saves on one persister are serialized by a `std::sync::Mutex`. Loads skip
-//! the lock: the rename is atomic, so a load concurrent with a save sees
-//! either the old or the new complete file. Two persister instances on the
-//! same path likewise cannot corrupt each other; each save replaces the
-//! whole file and the last writer wins, matching the [`Persister`] contract.
-//!
-//! The async methods do synchronous `std::fs` I/O with no await points, which
-//! is what GPUI's blocking-friendly `background_executor` is for. On a tokio
-//! runtime, wrap `load`/`save` in `spawn_blocking` to avoid stalling worker
-//! threads.
-//!
-//! On Windows the atomic replace can fail with `ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED` while an
-//! antivirus scanner or concurrent reader holds the destination; that is
-//! surfaced as the retryable [`PersistError::Permission`] rather than
-//! [`PersistError::Io`], which still carries the original error (kind and
-//! source chain intact) for every other failure.

No narration, no change-history notes ("T5:", "fixed:"), no restating what the code already says. Doc comments: one line that adds what the signature cannot (semantics, constraints, gotchas) or an `# Examples` block with doctests, with no summary line above the fence.

 - Skills: load rust-best-practices and rust-testing before writing or reviewing Rust; add rust-async-patterns for async paths and gpui-kit for GPUI-facing code. Run humanizer and humanize-writing over any prose change before merging.
 - Copywriting: all prose (comments, READMEs, docs) must read human-written: no em-dash cadence, no rule-of-three padding, no "seamless/robust/leverage" vocabulary.
 - Gates: `cargo test --all-features`, `cargo clippy --all-features --all-targets -- -D warnings`, and `cargo doc --all-features --no-deps` (zero warnings) all pass before a change is done. Bare `cargo test` skips the hook/persist modules; that is not a green run.

Subject: [PATCH 043/111] fix: close sanitize redaction gaps and trim
 duplicated core plumbing

Sanitize now redacts underscore local-parts in emails and tokens after
bearer: or bearer=, with regression tests for both leaks. The rewrite drops
the fake-regex dispatch for self-guarded alloc-free redact_* passes, dedupes
MaybeRequestId into core::request, routes complete_page_* through the guard
path, and removes the record_stale_cache_hit pass-through.

Subject: [PATCH 045/111] fix: redact full separator runs after auth keywords

try_match_token consumes the whole [ws|:|=]* run after bearer/token
instead of ws* + one separator + ws*, so doubled or mixed runs like
'bearer == s3cr3t' no longer leak the token behind the redaction
marker. Compress the helper doc to one line; fail-on-old tests cover
the doubled/mixed separator shapes via QueryError::sanitized().

Subject: [PATCH 046/111] refactor: dedupe client bucket ops and trim erased
 plumbing

Drop ErasedInfiniteBucket (method-identical to ErasedBucket), hoist the
per-bucket-kind bulk-op closures into shared ResourceBucket methods,
make bucket_or_recreate generic over both query maps, and check persist
filter/max-age before serializing each entry.

Subject: [PATCH 048/111] fix: make retry_count uniform across hook loops and
 trim plumbing

Query, infinite, and mutation retry loops now reset retry_count only
inside the accept guard, increment only while the request stays
current, and reset on accepted mutation success; the infinite runner
now increments at all (counter was stuck at 0 mid-sequence). Three
regression tests appended under src/tests/hook_tests/.

Fix and refactor committed together: the retry-count hunks interleave
with the trace deletions and wrapper removals inside the same loop
functions (core r1 precedent). Refactor: single-source spawn_page_fetch
and spawn_retry_fetch, drop run_fetch_{next,previous}_page_with_id and
run_mutation_loop_by_ref wrappers, hoist the cursor read out of the
retry loop, one entity read per notification in use_query_select,
impl_key_conversions! for the From impls, options new via Default,
delete debug eprintln traces and the duplicated module doctest.

Fresh entries skip the network entirely, stale entries revalidate with `If-None-Match` / `If-Modified-Since`, and a `304 Not Modified` re-serves the cached body and refreshes the stored entry unless its own `Cache-Control` blocks caching.
 - Pluggable backend: `HttpBackend` abstracts a single conditional `GET`. The crate ships `ReqwestBackend` behind the `reqwest` feature; any other client can implement the trait and feed `HttpCache::new`.
 - Serializable metadata: `CacheMeta` (ETag, `Last-Modified`, `stored_at`, `fresh_for`, `stale_for`) is serde-serializable, so it round-trips through a persistence layer for cheap `304` refetches on cold start.

 ## Gotchas
 
 - **Strict deserializers are load-bearing.** `hydrate` offers every on-disk entry to every registered deserializer (O(n × m), no type discriminator). A permissive decoder that accepts a foreign shape will mis-prime the wrong bucket. Return `None` for anything that isn't unambiguously your `T`.
-- **TypeId-only registry overwrites.** `register_serializer::<T, E_a>` then `register_serializer::<T, E_b>` for the same `T` silently overwrites — both are keyed on `TypeId::of::<T>()`. Last write wins, and it applies to both `(T, E)` buckets. This is correct (the value *is* that `T`) but surprises people expecting per-`(T, E)` keying.
-- **Non-object-safe traits.** `Persister` and `HttpBackend` both return `impl Future + Send` and are consumed generically (`persist_with<P: Persister>`, `HttpCache<B: HttpBackend>`). You cannot `Box<dyn Persister>` or `Box<dyn HttpBackend>` — use an `enum` of backends or generic plumbing instead.
-- **Mutex guards never cross `.await`.** Both `HttpCache` and `FilePersister` acquire a `std::sync::Mutex`, clone the value out, and drop the guard before yielding. If you write your own `Persister`/`HttpBackend`, do the same — holding a `std` mutex across `.await` is undefined behavior (the future is `Send` but the guard often is not) and trips on some runtimes.
-- **Only `200`s are cached.** A `304` re-serves a *prior* `200` body; a `304` with no cached body is `Err(NotModifiedWithoutCachedBody)`. `no-store`/`no-cache` and non-`200`/`304` statuses store nothing.
-- **`no-store` short-circuits parsing.** `no-store, max-age=abc` returns `Ok(NoCache)` — the malformed `max-age` is never reached. Only a malformed TTL *without* a preceding `no-store`/`no-cache` yields `InvalidMaxAge`.

If the owning component unmounts mid-fetch, `weak.upgrade()` returns `None` and the result is silently discarded — no callback fires.

-- **Mutation GC actually runs.** `QueryClient`'s explicit `Default` sets `gc_time_ms: 300_000` (the derived `Default` would have been `0` = disabled). `with_gc_time(0)` still disables; any value `< 1000` is clamped to `1000` during the pass.

-## 5. `use_mutation_with_options` is deprecated
+## 5. Mutation options moved into `use_mutation`
 
-`use_mutation_with_options(options, cx)` is deprecated since `0.2.0`. It now delegates to `use_mutation`, which accepts `MutationOptions` via `Into`. Replace it:
+The old options-taking mutation hook, deprecated in `0.2.0`, has been removed. `use_mutation` accepts `MutationOptions` via `Into`, so one hook covers both shapes:
 
 ```rust
-// v1
-// let (entity, sub) = use_mutation_with_options(&opts, cx);
-
-// v2
+// with options
 let (entity, sub) = use_mutation(opts, cx);
+
+// with defaults (no retries, 5 minute GC)
+let (entity, sub) = use_mutation((), cx);
 ```
 
-The deprecated function is retained (and still works) so existing callers compile, but it is no longer re-exported from the crate root. Move off it to clear the deprecation warning.
+If you were still on the deprecated hook, switch to the `opts` form above; the call reads the same and nothing else changes.

+Creates a new `MutationResource` entity and returns it together with the `Subscription` that keeps its observer alive; store both on your view struct. The entity starts in the `Idle` state configured from the options: pass `()` for the defaults (no retries, 5 minute GC) or a `MutationOptions` to change them. Read from the entity during render to show loading spinners, error messages, or success state.
 
 ```rust
+use gpui::{Entity, Subscription};
 use gpui_query::{use_mutation, MutationResource};
 
 struct UserForm {
     create_user: Entity<MutationResource<NewUser, User>>,

+## [0.2.2] - 2026-09-21
+
+> Audit-driven fixes across all three crates: a release-profile compile break, wider secret redaction, retry counters that match their docs, RFC 9111 cache refresh, and a durability fix in the file persister.
+
+### Fixed
+
+#### `gpui-query` — release-profile compile break
+
+- `cargo build --release` with the `hook` feature failed to compile: a release-only fallback in `use_query` called `cx.new` without the `AppContext` trait in scope. Dev-profile builds were unaffected, which is why the test suite never saw it. CI now builds and lints the release profile on every push and pull request.
+
+#### `gpui-query` — wider secret redaction in error text
+
+- The sanitizer now catches the shapes secrets arrive in: underscore-bearing email local parts (`alice@secret_word@corp.com`), `bearer` and `token` values behind any mix of whitespace and `:`/`=` separators including doubled ones (`bearer ==`), digit-bearing TLDs (`alice@corp.c0m`, `a@b.0rg`), and trailing-dot hostnames (`alice@corp.com.`). Redaction only grows — nothing that was redacted before passes through now.
+
+#### `gpui-query` — `retry_count` behaves the same in every hook
+
+- A fetch result discarded by a newer request no longer clobbers the live entry's retry counter, `use_infinite_query` increments it between attempts, and `use_mutation` resets it when a mutation succeeds.
+
+#### `gpui-query-http` — `304` responses refresh stored entries
+
+- Per RFC 9111 §4.3.4, a validated `304` updates the stored response and its timestamp, unless the 304's own `Cache-Control` blocks caching. Previously the timestamp never moved, so a revalidated entry stayed stale forever after. A late 304 also no longer clobbers a concurrent refresh: the update applies only if the stored metadata is unchanged since the fetch began.
+
+#### `gpui-query-http` — parse errors cap echoed header bytes
+
+- `ParseError` values embed at most 512 bytes of the offending header, suffixed with `...[truncated]`, so hostile `Cache-Control` fields cannot balloon error text.
+
+#### `gpui-query-persist` — parent directory fsynced for bare filenames
+
+- `FilePersister::json("cache.json")` produced an empty parent path, so the post-rename directory fsync silently did nothing. Bare and relative paths now resolve their parent correctly, and the raw `fsync` FFI call is replaced by `File::sync_all`.
+
+### Changed
+
+- READMEs are compiled as doctests, which caught every quick-start calling `App::new()` (never a method on gpui 0.2.2) plus a handful of drifted signatures, all now fixed.
+- Version literals in the skill packs are synced by the release workflow, alongside the READMEs and the docs install page.
+
 ## [0.2.1] - 2026-09-19
 
 > Wasm32 compile support for `core` and `gpui-query-http`, publish fixes for the satellite crates, and real test coverage in CI.

+## [0.3.0] - 2026-10-02
+
+> A campaign pass over the query lifecycle: direct cache writes now reach the UI, GC and eviction stop dropping live entries, request ids survive bucket churn, error redaction covers the connection strings it missed, and persistence gains dirty tracking, ordered saves, and collision-free key paths.
+
+### Fixed
+
+#### `gpui-query` — direct cache writes reach mounted observers
+
+- `set_query_data`, `PreparedFetch::complete`, and `hydrate` mutated resources without `cx.notify()`, so mounted `use_query`/`use_query_select` consumers never re-rendered on the documented optimistic-update and prefetch flows. They notify now, the observer dedup wakes on data-only writes to an already-`Success` entry, and `reset_queries` wakes its observers too.
+
+#### `gpui-query` — GC and eviction keep live entries
+
+- GC aged every resource without a completion timestamp as fully expired, so live never-fetched entries and `set_query_data`/hydrate-primed keys were dropped at the next sweep and a later `resource()` call minted a divergent second entity for the same key. Entries carry an insertion baseline now, and `invalidate`/`reset` refresh it. `evict_oldest` no longer pays a weak-upgrade scan per insert at the 10,000-entry cap (about 900x the normal insert cost before) and evicts dead entries first. Cancelled mutations are GC-stamped.
+- After `remove_queries` dropped a bucket entry while a fetch was in flight, the resource's transient sequencer minted fallback ids in the same space as bucket ids, so a stale completion could pass `accept_current_request` and discard the fresh result. Fallback ids draw from a reserved scope now. Under StaleWhileRevalidate + `IgnoreWhileLoading`, revalidation also spawned a duplicate fetcher racing the original for one request id; that case is ignored at the hook, prefetch, and prepared-fetch sites.
+
+#### `gpui-query` — mutation cancel is a terminal transition
+
+- `MutationResource::cancel` clears stale success data beside the `Failure` status, matching what `complete_failure` always documented, and a late `Ok` from the mutation future can no longer overwrite a terminal `Failure`.
+
+#### `gpui-query` — redaction covers the schemes and shapes it missed
+
+- `sanitized()` matched only four exact scheme spellings, so `postgresql://`, `rediss://`, `mongodb+srv://`, `mysql2://`, `amqp://`, and `mssql://` connection strings leaked credentials verbatim; `PATH_NEEDLES` used forward slashes only, so Windows-style paths leaked entirely; and dotted-local-part + dotless-domain emails (`j.smith@intranet`) escaped the email pass. All three are covered, and the connection and email passes are linear on adversarial input (the email path measured ~895 ms at 32 KiB before; output is byte-identical on all prior inputs).
+
+#### `gpui-query` — persistence
+
+- `QueryKey::to_path` was not injective: `["a::", ""]` and `["a", "::"]` both produced `"a::::"`, so two live queries silently overwrote each other in the snapshot and re-hydrated as a key matching neither origin. The path format escapes the separator and `PERSIST_VERSION` is bumped: old snapshots are discarded rather than misread, so expect one cold cache after upgrading if you persist.
+- Every debounce flush re-serialized the entire cache on the UI thread regardless of what changed. Flushes are dirty-tracked by a data epoch, unchanged entries reuse their stored payloads, removals are pruned, saves run strictly in order, and `Persister::save` still receives the full accumulated store.
+
+### Changed
+
+- `QueryResource` exposes an additive `data_epoch()`; `use_query_select` compares epochs instead of deep-comparing `T` on every notification and clones only on real change (the compare was ~93% of per-notify cost on a 1.6 MB payload). The `T: PartialEq` hook bound is unchanged.
+- Criterion benches (sanitize, key path, request policy, request id, persist round-trip) land as dev-dependency tooling with a recorded baseline for regression gating; nothing ships to consumers.
+- The docs match the shipped API: the rollback guides use the real `set_query_data` capture/restore pattern instead of the nonexistent `rollback_query_data`, and the mutations page documents this crate's `MutationResource` instead of the deprecated legacy crate's.
+
 ## [0.2.2] - 2026-09-21

Subject: [PATCH 109/111] fix: unwrap AsyncApp::update_global for gpui-pre's
 plain return

gpui-pre 0.3.x hands back the closure's value directly where zed's gpui
wraps it in a Result, so the persist flush loop's two-step unwrap fails
to compile on the bridge.

Subject: [PATCH 110/111] fix: adapt the merged 0.2.2 layer to gpui-pre's gpui
 API

The release line targets zed's gpui where Entity update/read_with hand
back Results and Application::new exists; the gpui-pre 0.3.x snapshot
returns values directly and renames the constructor. Drop the unit
let-bindings, dedupe the release-only AppContext import, and ignore the
affected README doctests so the bridge stays CI-green.
