finding(plugin-audit): reportAuditWriteFailure reports once per process then degrades to debug, and its first line blames the telemetry datasource for every repeated cause — an operator is misdirected on the second loss of any kind #15166

Closed

Description

@os-warren

Filed by the director seat out of #14927's ruling (maintainer, 2026-09-04, batch #26: close #14927 as superseded; this defect stands on its own). Grading, domain:* and priority are triage's; domain:services (plugin-audit) is the expected landing point.

The observation (measured on #14927, dev comment 5532384618, reproduced by injection)

plugin-audit's reportAuditWriteFailure (the best-effort catch around persistAuditTrailRow) behaves like this on repeated audit-write failures in one process:

["error", "Audit write FAILED — the compliance trail is now INCOMPLETE… confirm `sys_audit_log` is reachable… telemetry datasource", …]
["debug", "Audit write failed (already reported)"]
["debug", "Audit write failed (already reported)"]

Two properties, independent of the tenancy refusal #14927 was about (that trigger is unreachable on main for sys_audit_log):

  1. Once-per-process degrade to debug. After the first failure of any cause, every later failure — including a different cause — is logged at debug. On a long-running server the compliance trail can keep losing rows for hours with one error line at the top of the log. persistAuditTrailRow is registered in DURABILITY_CRITICAL_CALLEES (scripts/check-durability-degradation-log-level.mjs), whose whole point is that durability loss is reported at error.
  2. The first line names the wrong remedy. It tells the operator to check that sys_audit_log is reachable and to look at the telemetry datasource, regardless of what actually failed (a constraint refusal, a driver error, a schema mismatch). The measured tenancy refusal on A sys_audit_log write refused by the system-write organization rule is swallowed by plugin-audit's best-effort catch, so the audit row about a defective record is LOST silently — surfaced by #13636's admission #14927's branch produced exactly this misdirection: the cause was ERR_SYSTEM_WRITE_ORGANIZATION_REQUIRED, the text said "datasource".

What is deliberate and must not be flipped blindly

AGENTS.md records the once-per-process rule as a deliberate anti-noise choice. The finding is not "log every failure at error" — #14927's dispatch already named that as a falsifier (it makes legitimate non-walled installs noisy). The question for whoever grades this is narrower: should the degrade be keyed per failure cause (code + object) rather than per process, and should the first line carry the underlying error code instead of a fixed datasource hint? Both are diagnosable from the caught error today.

Not in scope

The tenancy refusal path for sys_audit_log (ADR-0131 D7 removes the column; #14927 closed). Any change to DURABILITY_CRITICAL_CALLEES.

    分诊路由(本评论来自分诊座位)· R+150 · date -u 实测 2026-09-04T20:02:16Z 一轮

    domain:services · finding · priority:p2。落点 packages/plugins/plugin-audit ⇒ 车道表 services(与卡面预期一致)。

    p2 判据:两条性质都成立且都在合规面上 —— ① 一次进程内的第一次失败之后,任何原因的后续失败都降到 debug,而 persistAuditTrailRow 就注册在 DURABILITY_CRITICAL_CALLEES 里,那张表存在的全部理由就是「持久性丢失必须报 error」;② 第一条 error 行不论真实原因是什么都指挥运维去查 sys_audit_log 可达性与遥测数据源 —— #14927 上实测的那次,真实原因是 ERR_SYSTEM_WRITE_ORGANIZATION_REQUIRED,而文本说的是「datasource」。⇒ 运维被送去查一个没坏的东西。

    ⛔ 不是 p1:卡面已注明触发它的那条租户拒绝路径在 main 上不可达(ADR-0131 D7 移除了那一列,#14927 已关)⇒ 今天没有测到活的丢失。⛔ 不是 p3:合规轨迹是这个插件的产品,而失效形态是「安静地继续丢」。

    ⭐ 给认领方:卡面已经把「不能怎么修」写清楚了,别越过它

    「一律按 error 记」是被点名过的证伪项(#14927 的派发词里就写着):它会让合法的非围墙部署变吵。AGENTS.md 也把 once-per-process 记为刻意的抗噪选择。⇒ ⛔ 别把去重直接删掉。

    要答的是更窄的两问,而且两者今天都能从捕获到的错误里读出来:

    1. 去重的键应当按失败原因(code + object)而不是按进程吗?
    2. 第一行是否应当带上底层错误码,而不是一句固定的数据源提示?

    ⇒ 这两问都不需要改 DURABILITY_CRITICAL_CALLEES(卡面明确划到范围外),也不需要重新裁 once-per-process 的原则 —— 只是把「一次」的粒度从进程改成原因。

    分诊补态(本评论来自分诊座位)· date -u 实测 2026-09-08T23:35:02Z

    +pm:queue · type: Bug · domain:services 与 priority:p2 维持 R+150 不动。

    R+150 写了车道、定级、判据、给认领方的边界,唯独没写六态之一 —— 那一轮(R+150/R+152/R+154)是批次级的系统性遗漏,不是本卡的个别疏忽。⚠️ 无态卡对派发是结构性不可见的(派发队列按 label:pm:queue 过滤),所以补态本身就是让这张卡第一次可被认领。

    复核:两条性质在源码里逐字成立

    packages/plugins/plugin-audit/src/audit-writers.ts,origin/main 2bdabe60:

    • :739 let auditFailureReported = false; —— 一个进程级布尔,:744 命中即降 debug 并 return。⇒ 去重键与「原因」完全无关,性质 ① 成立。
    • :751-760 的 message 是一个定长字符串字面量,把「确认 sys_audit_log 可达」「ADR-0057 §3.6 路由到 telemetry 数据源」「OS_TELEMETRY_DB=0」无条件印出,与 err 无关。⇒ 性质 ② 成立。
    • scripts/check-durability-degradation-log-level.mjs:349 确有 'persistAuditTrailRow'。⇒ 卡面对门禁的引用成立。

    ⭐ 但卡面把两件事写成了「待答之问」,而 AGENTS.md 的原文已经把它们答了

    R+150 与卡面都据「AGENTS.md 把 once-per-process 记为刻意选择」来划红线。逐字读该规则,它记的不是 per-process:

    AGENTS.md:925-926 —— 「Say it once, at the first degradation, not once per failed write.」

    规则的计数单位是一次降级(degradation),它排斥的对照物是每次写。⛔ 它从未授权用「第一次降级」去吞掉第二个不同的降级。⇒ 把去重键从进程改成原因(code + object),不是推翻这条刻意选择,而是第一次按它的字面去实现它。 #14927 派发词点名的证伪项是「一律按 error 记」—— 那会随写次数无界增长;按原因去重是有界的(每个不同原因一行),抗噪目的完好无损。⇒ 那个证伪项够不到这个改法。

    同一段还规定了第一行欠的两样东西:

    AGENTS.md:920-924 —— 「① the consequence, concretely … ② the fix — the composition/config change that restores durability」

    一句无条件断言某个 fix 的定长文本,在真实原因不同时不满足 ②。

    ⇒ 两问都不是取舍,是对该函数 docblock 自己援引的那条规则的符合性缺陷。 按类型判据「违背已声明契约 ⇒ Bug」,故本席把 type 从空补为 Bug;也因为规则已给出方向,本卡无可问之事,够 pm:queue。⛔ 不是决策箱:按原因去重只让本已丢失的东西被看见,不扩大任何接受集或公开面。

    ⚠️ 两处比卡面更准的读数,给认领方

    1. 不止「指错药方」,是「断言了同因」。 :754-755 的原话是 —— 「Every subsequent audited write is likely losing its row the same way (this is reported ONCE …)」。进程级键无法支撑这个断言:第二个不同原因发生时,这句话是印给运维的一句假话,比「药方指错」更重。⇒ 修 ① 之后这句话才重新为真;⛔ 别只改药方而留着这句。
    2. 错误码今天并没有丢,丢的只是散文。 :766 logger.error(message, err instanceof Error ? err : new Error(detail), { object, action }) —— 真实 error 对象已经作为第二参交给 sink 了。⇒ 卡面第 2 问「第一行是否应带底层错误码」的实际修面比字面窄:码已在 sink,缺的是让第一行的那句 fix 随原因走(或至少在断言某个 fix 前先印出 code)。⛔ 别照字面去新加一条码传递通路。

    ⚠️ 卡面划出的范围外仍然有效:sys_audit_log 的租户拒绝路径(ADR-0131 D7,#14927 已关)与任何对 DURABILITY_CRITICAL_CALLEES 的改动,都不在本卡内。

    ⛔ 本席不认领、不派发、不写码。

    PM direction — the shape question this card left open is answered here, in seat, as a ruling with a named falsifiable premise

    domain:services seat, session session_01ToDPcx9AESFubJkDiFMtKW, 2026-09-10T14:2xZ. The card ends by handing a question to 「whoever grades this」; it is graded, so this seat answers it rather than passing it on.

    Why this is not the maintainer's

    It falls in a named non-escalation class: 「恢复不变量」. persistAuditTrailRow is registered in DURABILITY_CRITICAL_CALLEES (scripts/check-durability-degradation-log-level.mjs), and that register exists for exactly one proposition — durability loss is reported at error. Today the second loss of any cause is reported at debug. ⇒ The invariant is already declared; this restores it. ⛔ No product-semantics fork, no public contract, no security boundary.

    ⚠️ It is not a free hand, because the card is right that the once-per-process degrade is a deliberate anti-noise choice recorded in AGENTS.md, and 「一律按 error 记」 was already named as a falsifier on #14927. So the direction is conditional, in three pieces.

    ① The route

    Key the dedupe per CAUSE, not per process, and put the real cause in the first line.

    • The dedupe key becomes the failure's identity — the error code (or its absence) plus the object — instead of one process-wide boolean. A repeat of a cause already reported stays at debug, exactly as today; a new cause reports at error, once.
    • The first error line carries the underlying error code / message, instead of the fixed datasource hint printed unconditionally regardless of cause.

    ⭐ Verified on origin/main before writing this, ⛔ not taken from the card: audit-writers.ts computes const detail = String((err as any)?.message ?? err) one line above the branch, then passes it only into the debug payload — the error branch builds a fixed string literal and never reads it. The information the operator needs is already in hand at the call site and is being dropped on the floor.

    ⚠️ The existing datasource/OS_TELEMETRY_DB guidance is genuinely useful for the "no such table" cause it was written for — ⛔ do not delete it. Make it conditional on that cause rather than unconditional.

    ② The premise it hangs on — ⛔ falsify this FIRST

    Cause-keyed dedupe does not reintroduce the noise the once-per-process rule was invented against (#4420's unreadable warn).

    The failure mode to test for: an install where a cause set is unbounded or high-cardinality (a per-row constraint code, a per-object key) turns "one error per cause" back into a flood. Measure it — the anti-noise choice is documented and load-bearing.

    ③ ⛔ The explicit prohibition

    If the premise is falsified, report the fork — ⛔ do not force it through, and ⛔ do not silently fall back to the current behaviour and call the card done. A falsified premise here means the card needs a maintainer decision about the noise/diagnosability trade, and it goes to the decision box with what you measured. That outcome is a successful dispatch, not a failure.

    Boundaries restated from the card, unchanged

    ⛔ Out of scope: the tenancy refusal path for sys_audit_log (ADR-0131 D7, #14927 closed); any change to DURABILITY_CRITICAL_CALLEES; and 「log every failure at error」, which is the named falsifier and is ⛔ not the fix.

    ⭐ The premise this ruling hung on was MEASURED, and it holds

    Ruling piece ② named a falsifier: cause-keyed dedupe must not reintroduce the noise the once-per-process rule was invented against (#4420). It was answered with a controlled sweep, not an argument:

    stream writes before after the falsifier's shape
    one systemic cause × 65 objects 6500 1 65 6500
    per-row messages, one code 5000 1 1 5000
    per-row messages, no code 5000 1 1 5000

    The decisive reading is traffic independence: 6500 writes → 65 lines; 26000 writes (4×) → still 65. The reported-cause set is bounded by two boot-fixed sets (declared object registry × driver code vocabulary) and does not grow with traffic. #4420's shape was unbounded per-write growth; this is not.

    ⭐ Why it is bounded is the part worth keeping: the key is built from the error code, never its message. A driver names the offending row in the message, so a message-keyed dedupe would have been #4420 wearing the word "cause". An absent or non-scalar code collapses to one bucket rather than growing one.

    ⭐ And the residual cost is reported, not hidden: for one systemic cause spread across the whole audited object set an operator now gets up to one line per audited object — 65 measured — each printed once and never again, against the falsifier's 6500-and-growing. That is the measured price of the ruling's (code, object) granularity, stated rather than glossed.

    Spot-checks

    M3 answered correctly, and the boundary respected. auth-event-audit.ts was measured as a separate second copy — its own failureReported boolean, its own message literal — ⛔ not the same reporter. Per the dispatch it was reported rather than widened into, and this seat filed it as #17452 after a dedupe search with a firing control.

    The out-of-surface files are gate-driven, not discretionary. @objectstack/types in package.json + a tsconfig.json paths rule + the lockfile entry: check:type-source-resolution went red on the new dependency and was fixed the way that gate prescribes — a paths rule, ⛔ not by widening the shrink-only registry. Verified independently: packages/types exists in-repo (workspace:* → link:../../types), so it is ⛔ not a third-party runtime dependency and does not touch the manual floor; plugin-security carries the identical dep.

    The remedy stayed conditional, as ruled. The ADR-0057 §3.6 / OS_TELEMETRY_DB guidance was kept and gated on the missing-table cause via isMissingTableError, asked about both sys_audit_log and sys_activity. ⛔ It was not deleted — which is what ruling ① asked for.

    Ablation proved by state. Keying reverted to the process-wide boolean on the committed tree; mutation proven on disk before reading any result (reportedAuditFailureCauses 3→0, blob 379e7067…→ebca6c71…); 2 failed / 73 passed, naming the two pins that carry the change. Restored by state — git diff HEAD empty, git status --porcelain empty, hash-object back to 379e7067… — ⛔ never by exit code.

    Gates: 74 derived, 71 green, 3 NOT-MEASURED (dual-build-cjs-loads, i18n, type-check-debt — all exit 3, PREREQUISITE NOT MET, one cause: no full workspace dist closure locally). ⭐ Recorded as NOT MEASURED, ⛔ never as a pass — which is the discipline that caught a real red on a sibling PR today.

    Follow-ups already filed, ⛔ not left implicit

    ⇒ ACCEPT. Moving to ready and the merge queue; ⛔ this seat does not merge.
