WAL segment format: 8-byte TSEG header (magic + version byte + 3 reserved)
prepended to every new segment. Legacy headerless segments (m0-m11p3) read
as implicit v0 — no migration. Unknown magic/version surfaces as
WalError::SegmentFormatUnknown at open time; foreign files are never
repaired or truncated (fixes the silent data-loss path from the p3 rollout
incident where torn-tail repair zeroed a follower's unreadable segments).
Catch-up transport: FAILED_PRECONDITION ("snapshot required") and stream
errors that skip the shard now arm a timer retry (re-arm-on-skip is the
load-bearing liveness fix — without it a skipped pull never re-fires and
the follower stays permanently behind). Single retry pending per shard;
CatchupRunner owns the Arc'd state shared between the retry tasks and the
transport. Test: tidal-net/tests/catchup_retry.rs covers the retry path.
Stress: k8s stress-job-t2a/t2b yaml + ops/stress-test-p3-t2 runbook.
- Eliminate the tidal/ self-contained doc mirror; docs now have two canonical
homes (root *.md and docs/), with planning/specs/research/reviews moved up
- Remove stale .agents/skills and .ai mirrors; canonicalize skills under .claude/
- Add pre-commit hook + scripts/check-docs.sh doc-guard + scripts/install-hooks.sh
- Implement M0-M10 seven-dimension review findings across engine, net, server,
and tidalctl (durability, replication, query, WAL, storage, CLI hardening)
Resolves the 142 findings from tidal/docs/reviews/CODE_REVIEW_m0-m10.md across
the engine, server, net, and CLI surfaces:
- WAL/session-journal durability, checkpoint format, and crash-recovery hardening
- Replication shipper/receiver, tenant isolation, and migration paths
- Cluster scatter-gather, router, standalone server + health/offload endpoints
- tidalctl refactored into command modules with JSON output and WAL-state tooling
- Cohort, governance, signal-ledger, and vector-registry correctness fixes
- Expanded UAT/integration/durability test coverage across all milestones
