Follow-up to #135. Record version history now respects deletion, like the rest of the index:

  • Record deleted → its stored versions are deleted, replacing the tombstone added in Opt-in record version history (recordHistory query) #135. The purge runs on every delete delivery, so a failed purge is retried when Tap redelivers. It also runs for collections that are no longer tracked, so history recorded earlier is never stranded.
  • Account deleted, deactivated or taken down → PurgeActorData deletes the account's versions in the same transaction as its records and actor row.
  • Migration 016 adds record_version(did) for the account purge.

Found during the production smoke test of #136: after a throwaway test account was torn down, its records were purged but its history rows would have stayed publicly queryable through recordHistory.

Verified: golangci-lint (0 issues), go test -race ./... on SQLite and PostgreSQL 17, and integration tests. New tests: account purge removes only that account's history; a delete purges history even after tracking stops; the handler covers create → resync → update → delete → redelivered delete; and 016 up/down.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Record history is now removed when a record is deleted or its account is deleted, deactivated, or taken down—including when its collection is no longer being tracked.
  • Documentation
    • Clarified that version history contains record creation and update entries, not deletion entries.

Deleting a record now removes its stored versions (instead of adding a
tombstone), and PurgeActorData removes an account's versions together with
its records, so deleted, deactivated or taken-down accounts leave no
queryable past versions. The purge runs on every delete delivery and even
for collections no longer tracked, so history recorded earlier is never
stranded. Migration 016 indexes record_version(did) for account purges.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Record deletes and account purges now remove stored version history instead of creating delete entries. Tap handling purges history even when a collection is no longer tracked. A new database index supports account-level history deletion.

The repository accepts create and update versions, deletes history by URI, and removes history during account purges. PostgreSQL and SQLite migration 016 add and remove the DID index. Documentation and tests reflect the updated deletion behavior.
Tap delete processing

The Tap handler purges URI history after a delete, even when the collection is no longer tracked. Startup wires the history repository with an empty matcher. Tests cover delete purges, tracking changes, and the default configuration.

Record and account deletion now purge version history, but upgrades from builds that already ran the history table can keep stale delete entries and history for accounts that were purged before this change. On PostgreSQL, building the new index can also briefly block history writes during a rolling deploy. Plan a cleanup and a safe index-build path before merging, or explicitly accept them.

- Line 2: Update migration 016’s index build to avoid blocking live writes: use
PostgreSQL’s concurrent index creation and ensure the migration runner executes
it outside a transaction. If the runner cannot do that, arrange an explicit
write pause instead.

In `@internal/tap/handler.go`:
- Around line 147-150: Wrap the current-record deletion via DeleteReturning and
the history cleanup via h.versions.DeleteByURI in the same transaction,
committing only when both succeed and rolling back on either failure. Preserve
the existing error propagation so a repeated delete still attempts to clean up
history when the record is already absent.

Addresses review on #137:
- RecordsRepository.Delete, DeleteReturning and DeleteByDID now delete the
  record's record_version rows in the same transaction as the record, so no
  query ever sees history for a deleted record and every delete path
  (Tap, legacy Jetstream, backfill resets) inherits it. The handler-level
  purge and RecordVersionsRepository.DeleteByURI are gone.
- Migration 016 (renamed record_version_honor_deletes) removes what 015-era
  builds stored: delete tombstones, versions before a tombstone, and history
  of records that no longer exist (including purged accounts), then adds the
  did index.

Same as #137's follow-up: Records.Delete / DeleteByDID / PurgeActorData
delete record_version rows in the same transaction (covering Tap and legacy
Jetstream deletes), and migration 016 removes history the 015-era build kept
for deleted records and purged accounts before adding the did index.

Addressed in the latest commits: history is now deleted inside RecordsRepository.Delete/DeleteReturning/DeleteByDID/PurgeActorData, in the same transaction as the record, which covers Tap and legacy Jetstream deletes. Migration 016 now removes what 015-era builds left behind (tombstones, versions before a tombstone, and history of records that no longer exist, including purged accounts), verified on SQLite (test) and PostgreSQL (manual fixture).
