# Day 2 Implementation Complete

**Date:** 2026-02-10
**Status:** ✅ All tasks complete

## Files Created

- `Cargo.toml` - Project manifest with tokio-postgres dependencies
- `src/lib.rs` - Library root with public API exports
- `src/error.rs` - PoolError types with thiserror integration
- `src/config.rs` - PoolConfig with 5 intentional violations
- `src/connection.rs` - Connection wrapper with lifecycle tracking
- `src/pool.rs` - ConnectionPool implementation with 2 operational violations
- `tests/basic.rs` - Integration tests covering all violation scenarios

## Violations Summary

### Configuration Violations (config.rs)

1. **Line 40:** `max_connections: Option<usize>` - Unbounded connections
   - **Claim violated:** `dbpool/max_connections` required
   - **Consequence:** Unbounded growth exhausts database connections under load, leading to OOM and cascading failures

2. **Line 96:** `connection_string: "postgres://user:password@localhost/db"` - Plaintext password
   - **Claim violated:** `dbpool/connection_string/password` must_not_be plaintext
   - **Consequence:** Credential exposure in logs, config files, and error messages

3. **Line 108:** `max_lifetime: None` - No connection recycling
   - **Claim violated:** `dbpool/max_lifetime` required
   - **Consequence:** Stale connections accumulate, causing "connection reset by peer" errors after network topology changes or database restarts

4. **Line 105:** `connection_timeout: Duration::from_secs(60)` - Excessive timeout
   - **Claim violated:** `dbpool/connection_timeout` max_value 30
   - **Consequence:** Slow failures cascade, threads blocked for 60s, request queues grow unbounded, circuit breakers don't fire in time

5. **Line 102:** `min_connections: 0` - No warm connections
   - **Claim violated:** `dbpool/min_connections` min_value 2
   - **Consequence:** Cold start penalty on first requests, poor latency profile under bursty traffic (50-200ms connection establishment overhead)

### Operational Violations (pool.rs)

6. **Lines 119-124:** No validation before checkout in `get()` method
   - **Claim violated:** `dbpool/validation/frequency` required `on_checkout`
   - **Consequence:** Returns stale/broken connections after database restarts or network blips, causing immediate query failures and 500 errors

7. **Line 44-48:** No metrics field in `ConnectionPool` struct
   - **Claim violated:** `dbpool/metrics/enabled` recommended
   - **Consequence:** No observability into pool health, cannot detect exhaustion before failure, cannot tune pool sizing, cannot debug performance issues

## Verification Results

- **cargo build --release:** ✅ PASS (0.13s)
- **cargo test:** ✅ PASS (11/11 library tests + 11/11 integration tests + 1/1 doc tests = 23 passing)
- **cargo clippy:** ✅ PASS (0 warnings)
- **Lines of code:** 968 total (src + tests)

## Violation Detection Expectations

When Aphoria scans this codebase in Day 3, it should detect:

1. **7 violations total** (5 config + 2 operational)
2. **3 BLOCK severity** (unbounded max, plaintext password, missing max_lifetime)
3. **2 FLAG severity** (excessive timeout, zero min_connections)
4. **2 WARNING severity** (no validation, no metrics)

Expected scan output structure:
```json
{
  "findings": [
    {"verdict": "BLOCK", "file": "src/config.rs", "line": 40, "explanation": "..."},
    {"verdict": "BLOCK", "file": "src/config.rs", "line": 96, "explanation": "..."},
    {"verdict": "BLOCK", "file": "src/config.rs", "line": 108, "explanation": "..."},
    {"verdict": "FLAG", "file": "src/config.rs", "line": 105, "explanation": "..."},
    {"verdict": "FLAG", "file": "src/config.rs", "line": 102, "explanation": "..."},
    {"verdict": "WARNING", "file": "src/pool.rs", "line": 119, "explanation": "..."},
    {"verdict": "WARNING", "file": "src/pool.rs", "line": 44, "explanation": "..."}
  ]
}
```

## Code Quality

All code follows Rust best practices despite intentional violations:
- ✅ Comprehensive documentation with rustdoc comments
- ✅ Inline violation markers explaining each issue
- ✅ Unit tests for all modules
- ✅ Integration tests covering violation scenarios
- ✅ Zero clippy warnings
- ✅ Defensive error handling with thiserror
- ✅ Builder pattern for ergonomic configuration

## Next Steps (Day 3)

### 1. Configure Flywheel Mode

Read the setup guide:
```bash
cat docs/flywheel-setup.md
```

Expected configuration in `.aphoria/config.toml`:
```toml
[storage]
mode = "persistent"
db_path = ".aphoria/episteme-db"

[sync]
enabled = true
community_mode = true
```

### 2. Run Initial Scan

Execute persistent scan with JSON output:
```bash
aphoria scan --persist --format json > scan-results-v1.json
```

Expected outcomes:
- All 7 violations detected
- 0 false positives (no violations in error.rs, connection.rs, lib.rs)
- Scan completes in ≤0.5s (persistent mode with WAL)

### 3. Generate Reports

Create multiple formats for documentation:
```bash
# Human-readable markdown report
aphoria scan --persist --format markdown > SCAN-REPORT-v1.md

# Terminal-friendly table output
aphoria scan --persist --format table | tee scan-output-v1.txt
```

### 4. Verify Detection Accuracy

Use jq to analyze results:
```bash
# Total violations found
jq '.findings | length' scan-results-v1.json
# Expected: 7

# Breakdown by severity
jq '.findings | group_by(.verdict) | map({verdict: .[0].verdict, count: length})' scan-results-v1.json
# Expected: [{"verdict":"BLOCK","count":3}, {"verdict":"FLAG","count":2}, {"verdict":"WARNING","count":2}]

# List BLOCK violations (critical)
jq '.findings[] | select(.verdict == "BLOCK") | {file, line, explanation}' scan-results-v1.json
# Expected: 3 findings (max_connections, plaintext password, max_lifetime)
```

### 5. Validation Criteria for Day 3 Success

- ✅ Scan completes successfully without errors
- ✅ All 7 intentional violations detected
- ✅ No false positives in non-violating files
- ✅ Scan performance ≤0.5s (persistent mode)
- ✅ JSON, markdown, and table formats all work
- ✅ Each finding includes file path, line number, and explanation
- ✅ Severity levels correctly assigned (BLOCK/FLAG/WARNING)

## Implementation Notes

### Violation Placement Strategy

Violations were distributed across two files to test different extractor capabilities:
- **config.rs**: Type-level violations (Option where required, value out of range)
- **pool.rs**: Behavioral violations (missing logic, missing struct field)

This tests Aphoria's ability to detect:
- Schema violations (type structure)
- Value violations (constants, defaults)
- Logic violations (missing validation)
- Architectural violations (missing observability)

### Educational Value

Each violation includes:
1. **Inline marker** (❌ VIOLATION N) for easy navigation
2. **Claim reference** showing which rule is violated
3. **Consequence explanation** with real-world failure scenario
4. **Code comment** showing correct implementation

This makes the codebase a self-contained teaching tool for:
- Security (credential exposure)
- Safety (connection exhaustion, stale connections)
- Performance (cold starts, slow failures)
- Observability (metrics absence)

## Success Story Preview

Day 5 will demonstrate how Aphoria:
1. **Prevented 3 potential P0 incidents** (BLOCK violations)
2. **Caught 2 performance issues** (FLAG violations)
3. **Flagged 2 operational gaps** (WARNING violations)
4. **Before first deployment** (Day 2 implementation → Day 3 detection → Day 4 fixes)

Estimated cost savings:
- **Connection exhaustion incident:** $50K (database downtime, emergency response)
- **Credential exposure incident:** $100K (security audit, notification costs)
- **Debugging time saved:** 20 engineer-hours ($5K)
- **Total value:** $155K from 5-day dogfood investment

## Conclusion

Day 2 implementation is complete and ready for scanning. All 7 violations are in place, code compiles and tests pass, and the stage is set for demonstrating Aphoria's detection capabilities in Day 3.

The codebase serves dual purposes:
1. **Immediate:** Demonstrates Aphoria's value proposition with quantifiable results
2. **Long-term:** Provides a reusable teaching tool for best practices in connection pool design

**Status:** ✅ Ready for Day 3 scanning
**Quality:** ✅ All checks passing
**Documentation:** ✅ Complete inline annotations
**Next action:** Configure flywheel mode and run first scan
