A new user-scoped table is outside all three by default, and the two
structural guards said so the moment the model landed: the wipe plan and
the backup verdict list both named it as unclassified. It now joins the
wipe list, rides the backup payload as its own spread section, and comes
back through the restore route.
The classification guards only prove a helper exists in a declared file, so
they would pass an unreferenced restore helper. The integration round trip
goes through the real admin restore route instead, with the table emptied
first so a restore that carries nothing cannot pass by leaving what was
already there.
`IntradayCumulativeProfile` shipped classified as backed up and carried by
nothing. The drain folds the per-sample rows into twenty-four running totals
and deletes the originals in the same transaction, so past the grace window
the table is the only copy of a day's curve: a restore rebuilt the account
without it, reported success, and left the same-time baseline reading "still
learning" for a fortnight.
Builder and restore sit together in one file, the way the profile and cycle
pairs do, because the restore route delegates and a grep of the route alone
lies. The section spreads into the payload rather than being copied key by
key. Two curves for the same metric and day, or a curve that is not a whole
day, throw naming the day instead of writing a row every reader drops.
The pair is proven end to end rather than at each end: the round-trip suite
builds a real payload from a populated account, serialises it, parses it back
through the real parser, drives the real restore, and asserts on the rows
written. Remove the read and it goes red.
The rail gains a same_time_baseline kind and a server builder, which is the
growth path that type documents for itself. It speaks only when today is
actually outside the typical band: a card that reports doing exactly what you
usually do teaches people to stop reading the rail. Dismissing it is keyed by
day and metric, not by the hour, so it stays dismissed instead of coming back
every sixty minutes.
The Insights grid gains a section of four tiles, one per cumulative metric,
each honestly quiet until the history accrues.
The two-trajectory chart it needs did not exist, so DeltaSparkline gains a
second mode rather than a second chart family: the comparison curve rides the
same container, the same fixed height and the same shared y-domain as a dashed
muted line behind the live one, which is the only way the two can be read
against each other.
Six locales. The wipe and backup plans learn about the new table: the profile
cannot be rebuilt once the samples are gone, so it is carried, not derived.
The classification guard proved every model has an opinion and would have
passed unchanged while a model classified as carried was read into the payload
and never written back — which is what happened to the nutrient day totals, the
custom mood tags and the custom cycle symptoms, three releases running.
Split BACKED_UP into the models with both ends and the models without, each of
the latter carrying what an account loses meanwhile, so the debt is a register
rather than a silence. The check reads declared writer and restore files rather
than grepping for a route, because the route delegates: a review that grepped
only the route concluded the cycle data was never restored and had to be
retracted. Declaring the file list caught its own first omission — measurements
are read through the pager, not directly.
Adds a round trip that builds a real payload, parses it through the wire schema
and drives the real restore, asserting on the rows written rather than on the
payload. Dropping the cycle section spread makes it fail the way production
did: the restore throws on a symptom key nothing wrote back.
The guard tested whether the argument list contained the substring "timeZone".
`timeZoneName: "short"` contains it. That option appends "GMT+1" to the output
and leaves the zone as the browser's, so a formatter written that way sailed
through while being exactly as wrong as a bare one — and looking more careful
than a bare one, which is worse.
Tightening it to a colon-terminated property then reported nine correct call
sites, because the shorthand `{ timeZone }` is what most of this tree writes.
The honest response to that would have been to allowlist all nine, which is
how a guard stops guarding. It accepts both forms now, and a test pins both
directions rather than leaving the regex to be trusted.
Two exclusion reasons in the backup plan aged inside their own release and are
corrected: push attempts now also hold the reminder dedup anchors this release
introduced, and the thumbnail's "rebuilds from the stored bytes" only holds on
the disaster-recovery path, since a portable export carries no bytes to rebuild
from.
Four things an independent read found, three of them things this release said
about itself that were not true.
A custom mood tag travelled without its label, its icon, its sort order and
its SCALE. The label is the smaller loss: the person who named a factor
"Migräne" would have got a key back. The scale is the real one — the inverse
flag marks a factor where a high value is bad, and dropping it does not lose a
label, it silently reverses the meaning of every rating already recorded
against that tag. Custom cycle symptoms lost their label the same way. Both
now carry the ciphertext verbatim, like every other encrypted column in a
disaster-recovery payload.
The plan file claimed, in the present tense, that a guard requires both a
payload reader and a restore branch for every carried model. No such guard
exists. The commit that introduced the file said so honestly; the file itself
said the opposite, and roughly 31 models have neither end. BACKED_UP means
"must be", not "is", and both the plan and its test now say that plainly. The
wrong sentence is recorded rather than quietly swapped, because it is the same
defect the file was written to prevent.
The export route still told operators that labs, allergies, illness episodes
and workouts could be exported but never restored. The restore route
re-creates all of them, and since this release nutrient day totals too. The
scope now points at the plan instead of repeating it beside the code, which is
how that sentence came to be wrong.
And the export card promised "every record you own". It does not, so it no
longer says so — six locales.
The mirror of the wipe plan, for the same reason and against a worse failure:
a list that was right when written and stops being right every time a model is
added. On the delete side that leaves data behind; here it means data does not
come back, and nothing says so until someone is restoring a backup because
something already went wrong.
The list is longer than the wipe list by sixteen models, and that gap is the
point. A wipe may lean on the database — deleting a medication cascades to its
schedules, dose changes and inventory events — but a restore has no cascade,
so every child has to be named here.
Every exclusion carries its reason in prose, and the guard enforces a length
floor on it. That floor is not pedantry: the first draft of this file said
'Same as WithingsConnection' four times, which is a pointer rather than a
reason, and a pointer silently inherits whatever the thing it points at
becomes. Writing the decision where it is made is the only way it stays
reviewable.
The guard found two things in its own author's work on the first run: a model
with no verdict at all, and a reason too thin to be one.
The restore side of the guard — that every carried model also has a restore
branch — lands with the payload work it will police.
