Marc-André Bombeck 5e66ebaa54 fix(jobs): let the retention purges finish, and let them fail loudly
The nightly tombstone purge asked for `deleted_at IS NOT NULL AND deleted_at
< cutoff` and the audit-log purge asked for `created_at < cutoff`. Neither
predicate had an index behind it: every deleted_at index in the schema is
partial on IS NULL, the live-rows predicate, and every audit_logs index leads
with user_id or action. Both purges planned a sequential scan and then paid
index maintenance per removed row, in one unbounded statement, on a
connection carrying statement_timeout=60000. Past a certain backlog the
statement aborts, the transaction rolls back, nothing is purged, and the next
night runs the identical statement against the same rows. The mechanism that
gives deletion a horizon could not close on the instances that needed it.

Migration 0277 adds the indexes the predicates ask for; the three tombstone
ones are partial on IS NOT NULL, so on a healthy instance they cover only the
tombstones and shrink as the purge drains. The purges now walk the backlog in
batches of 5 000 by primary key, capped at 200 000 rows a run.

Both handlers used to swallow every error into a wide-event warning and
return, so pg-boss recorded a successful job either way: a purge failing
every night looked exactly like a purge with nothing to do. They now rethrow,
and a run that stops at the cap records that a backlog remains.

prisma/

The database layer. HealthLog runs PostgreSQL 16 via Prisma 7. This directory holds the single schema file and the forward-only migration history; the generated client is emitted elsewhere.

Contents

  • schema.prisma — 61 models, one file. cuid() primary keys, snake_case columns via @map(...), encrypted columns mostly suffixed *Encrypted (search the file; there are 24 encrypted column references). The generator client block emits to ../src/generated/prisma (imported as @/generated/prisma).
  • migrations/ — numbered, forward-only SQL migrations (0001_… upward). migration_lock.toml pins the provider to postgresql.

Migration workflow

# author a migration from a schema edit
pnpm dlx prisma migrate dev --name <short_snake_case_name>

# regenerate the client after any schema change
pnpm dlx prisma generate

Number a new migration with the next free prefix. The production entrypoint runs prisma migrate deploy on boot, so every migration must apply cleanly forward — there is no down-migration path. Always include the migration file in the same change as the schema edit.

Conventions

  • Encryption is fail-closed: *Encrypted columns are written through @/lib/crypto (AES-256-GCM, versioned key ids); never store plaintext in an encrypted column. Key rotation is scripts/rotate-encryption-key.ts + docs/ops/encryption-key-rotation.md.
  • The generated client under src/generated/prisma is build output — do not edit it.
  • Schema-touching changes that affect the API surface must regenerate docs/api/openapi.yaml (see ../CLAUDE.md).
