# Phase 4: TRANSACTION RESILIENCE

**Status:** ✅ COMPLETE

## Overview

Phase 4 implements comprehensive transaction resilience for the Sacred Pipeline, ensuring robust handling of timeouts, automatic lock release, and complete idempotency key lifecycle management.

## Components Implemented

### 1. Timeout Detection & Recovery (`src/lib/timeoutDetection.ts`)

**Purpose:** Detect and categorize timeout errors from all sources (fetch, Supabase, edge functions, database).

**Key Features:**
- ✅ Universal timeout detection across all error sources
- ✅ Timeout severity categorization (minor/moderate/critical)
- ✅ Automatic retry strategy recommendations based on severity
- ✅ `withTimeout()` wrapper for operation timeout enforcement
- ✅ User-friendly error messages based on timeout severity

**Timeout Sources Detected:**
- AbortController timeouts
- Fetch API timeouts
- HTTP 408/504 status codes
- Supabase connection timeouts (PGRST301)
- PostgreSQL query cancellations (57014)
- Generic timeout keywords in error messages

**Severity Levels:**
- **Minor** (<10s database/edge, <20s fetch): Auto-retry 3x with 1s delay
- **Moderate** (10-30s database, 20-60s fetch): Retry 2x with 3s delay, increase timeout 50%
- **Critical** (>30s database, >60s fetch): No auto-retry, manual intervention required

### 2. Lock Auto-Release (`src/lib/moderation/lockAutoRelease.ts`)

**Purpose:** Automatically release submission locks when operations fail, timeout, or are abandoned.

**Key Features:**
- ✅ Automatic lock release on error/timeout
- ✅ Lock release on page unload (using `sendBeacon` for reliability)
- ✅ Inactivity monitoring with configurable timeout (default: 10 minutes)
- ✅ Multiple release reasons tracked: timeout, error, abandoned, manual
- ✅ Silent vs. notified release modes
- ✅ Activity tracking (mouse, keyboard, scroll, touch)

**Release Triggers:**
1. **On Error:** When moderation operation fails
2. **On Timeout:** When operation exceeds time limit
3. **On Unload:** User navigates away or closes tab
4. **On Inactivity:** No user activity for N minutes
5. **Manual:** Explicit release by moderator

**Usage Example:**
```typescript
// Setup in moderation component
useEffect(() => {
  const cleanup1 = setupAutoReleaseOnUnload(submissionId, moderatorId);
  const cleanup2 = setupInactivityAutoRelease(submissionId, moderatorId, 10);
  
  return () => {
    cleanup1();
    cleanup2();
  };
}, [submissionId, moderatorId]);
```

### 3. Idempotency Key Lifecycle (`src/lib/idempotencyLifecycle.ts`)

**Purpose:** Track idempotency keys through their complete lifecycle to prevent duplicate operations and race conditions.

**Key Features:**
- ✅ Full lifecycle tracking: pending → processing → completed/failed/expired
- ✅ IndexedDB persistence for offline resilience
- ✅ 24-hour key expiration window
- ✅ Multiple indexes for efficient querying (by submission, status, expiry)
- ✅ Automatic cleanup of expired keys
- ✅ Attempt tracking for debugging
- ✅ Statistics dashboard support

**Lifecycle States:**
1. **pending:** Key generated, request not yet sent
2. **processing:** Request in progress
3. **completed:** Request succeeded
4. **failed:** Request failed (with error message)
5. **expired:** Key TTL exceeded (24 hours)

**Database Schema:**
```typescript
interface IdempotencyRecord {
  key: string;
  action: 'approval' | 'rejection' | 'retry';
  submissionId: string;
  itemIds: string[];
  userId: string;
  status: IdempotencyStatus;
  createdAt: number;
  updatedAt: number;
  expiresAt: number;
  attempts: number;
  lastError?: string;
  completedAt?: number;
}
```

**Cleanup Strategy:**
- Auto-cleanup runs every 60 minutes (configurable)
- Removes keys older than 24 hours
- Provides cleanup statistics for monitoring

### 4. Enhanced Idempotency Helpers (`src/lib/idempotencyHelpers.ts`)

**Purpose:** Bridge between key generation and lifecycle management.

**New Functions:**
- `generateAndRegisterKey()` - Generate + persist in one step
- `validateAndStartProcessing()` - Validate key and mark as processing
- `markKeyCompleted()` - Mark successful completion
- `markKeyFailed()` - Mark failure with error message

**Integration:**
```typescript
// Before: Just generate key
const key = generateIdempotencyKey(action, submissionId, itemIds, userId);

// After: Generate + register with lifecycle
const { key, record } = await generateAndRegisterKey(
  action, 
  submissionId, 
  itemIds, 
  userId
);
```

### 5. Unified Transaction Resilience Hook (`src/hooks/useTransactionResilience.ts`)

**Purpose:** Single hook combining all Phase 4 features for moderation transactions.

**Key Features:**
- ✅ Integrated timeout detection
- ✅ Automatic lock release on error/timeout
- ✅ Full idempotency lifecycle management
- ✅ 409 Conflict detection and handling
- ✅ Auto-setup of unload/inactivity handlers
- ✅ Comprehensive logging and error handling

**Usage Example:**
```typescript
const { executeTransaction } = useTransactionResilience({
  submissionId: 'abc-123',
  timeoutMs: 30000,
  autoReleaseOnUnload: true,
  autoReleaseOnInactivity: true,
  inactivityMinutes: 10,
});

// Execute moderation action with full resilience
const result = await executeTransaction(
  'approval',
  ['item-1', 'item-2'],
  async (idempotencyKey) => {
    return await supabase.functions.invoke('process-selective-approval', {
      body: { idempotencyKey, submissionId, itemIds }
    });
  }
);
```

**Automatic Handling:**
- ✅ Generates and registers idempotency key
- ✅ Validates key before processing
- ✅ Wraps operation in timeout
- ✅ Auto-releases lock on failure
- ✅ Marks key as completed/failed
- ✅ Handles 409 Conflicts gracefully
- ✅ User-friendly toast notifications

### 6. Enhanced Submission Queue Hook (`src/hooks/useSubmissionQueue.ts`)

**Purpose:** Integrate queue management with new transaction resilience features.

**Improvements:**
- ✅ Real IndexedDB integration (no longer placeholder)
- ✅ Proper queue item loading from `submissionQueue.ts`
- ✅ Status transformation (pending/retrying/failed)
- ✅ Retry count tracking
- ✅ Error message persistence
- ✅ Comprehensive logging

## Integration Points

### Edge Functions
Edge functions (like `process-selective-approval`) should:
1. Accept `idempotencyKey` in request body
2. Check key status before processing
3. Update key status to 'processing'
4. Update key status to 'completed' or 'failed' on finish
5. Return 409 Conflict if key is already being processed

### Moderation Components
Moderation components should:
1. Use `useTransactionResilience` hook
2. Call `executeTransaction()` for all moderation actions
3. Handle timeout errors gracefully
4. Show appropriate UI feedback

### Example Integration
```typescript
// In moderation component
const { executeTransaction } = useTransactionResilience({
  submissionId,
  timeoutMs: 30000,
});

const handleApprove = async (itemIds: string[]) => {
  try {
    const result = await executeTransaction(
      'approval',
      itemIds,
      async (idempotencyKey) => {
        const { data, error } = await supabase.functions.invoke(
          'process-selective-approval',
          {
            body: { 
              submissionId, 
              itemIds, 
              idempotencyKey 
            }
          }
        );
        
        if (error) throw error;
        return data;
      }
    );
    
    toast({
      title: 'Success',
      description: 'Items approved successfully',
    });
  } catch (error) {
    // Errors already handled by executeTransaction
    // Just log or show additional context
  }
};
```

## Performance Considerations

1. **IndexedDB Queries:** All key lookups use indexes for O(log n) performance
2. **Cleanup Frequency:** Runs every 60 minutes (configurable) to minimize overhead
3. **sendBeacon:** Used on unload for reliable fire-and-forget requests
4. **Activity Tracking:** Uses passive event listeners to avoid blocking
5. **Timeout Enforcement:** AbortController for efficient timeout cancellation

## Security Considerations

1. **Idempotency Keys:** Include timestamp to prevent replay attacks after 24h window
2. **Lock Release:** Only allows moderator to release their own locks
3. **Key Validation:** Checks key status before processing to prevent race conditions
4. **Expiration:** 24-hour TTL prevents indefinite key accumulation
5. **Audit Trail:** All key state changes logged for debugging

## Monitoring & Observability

### Logs
All components use structured logging:
```typescript
logger.info('[IdempotencyLifecycle] Registered key', { key, action });
logger.warn('[TransactionResilience] Transaction timed out', { duration });
logger.error('[LockAutoRelease] Failed to release lock', { error });
```

### Statistics
Get idempotency statistics:
```typescript
const stats = await getIdempotencyStats();
// { total: 42, pending: 5, processing: 2, completed: 30, failed: 3, expired: 2 }
```

### Cleanup Reports
Cleanup operations return deleted count:
```typescript
const deletedCount = await cleanupExpiredKeys();
console.log(`Cleaned up ${deletedCount} expired keys`);
```

## Known Limitations

1. **Browser Support:** IndexedDB required (all modern browsers supported)
2. **sendBeacon Size Limit:** 64KB payload limit (sufficient for lock release)
3. **Inactivity Detection:** Only detects activity in current tab
4. **Timeout Precision:** JavaScript timers have ~4ms minimum resolution
5. **Offline Queue:** Requires online connectivity to process queued items

## Next Steps

- [ ] Add idempotency statistics dashboard to admin panel
- [ ] Implement real-time lock status monitoring
- [ ] Add retry strategy customization per entity type
- [ ] Create automated tests for all resilience scenarios
- [ ] Add metrics export for observability platforms
