PR discovery builds thread shells even though it only needs thread metadata. That counts old tool history and reads run/input state that discovery never uses, on both startup and refresh.

Read active thread metadata directly through the existing orchestrator. Keep startup backfill, settled-thread filtering, single-thread scope, legacy PR links and the sequence guard against stale updates. Decode the payloads after the read transaction ends.

On 500 threads with 50,000 completed tool items, the returned discovery metadata matches the old shell metadata:

Snapshot read Before After
Median of 9 warm reads 18.93 ms 7.00 ms
History SELECTs 3 0
Total SELECTs 4 2

About 63% less time for this fixture's snapshot read, not for GitHub calls or the whole app.

Reproduction scripts.

Validation: 59 focused tests pass, plus server typecheck, clean targeted lint and formatting on the M4 mini. The earlier isolated client loaded a failed 50,000-tool fixture and passed search, settled-thread and PR navigation without page errors.

Test cleanup: removed 4 of 7 added cases (57%)—duplicate in-memory examples and fabricated diagnostic failures. Three SQL runtime cases remain: legacy links/explicit unlinking, active/backfill filtering, and avoiding history reads. Existing integrated metadata/sequence assertions remain. Deliberate mutations losing legacy links, including settled threads, adding a history read, or returning a stale sequence all fail the surviving checks. Types/schemas cover structure, not these query semantics. No production code, dependencies or runner configuration changed. Independent Codex review of the deletion slice found no actionable regression.

No client, provider or wire changes; the shared server path covers web, desktop, mobile and remote connections. The installed app was not updated, and verification servers used separate state.

Fixes #18618.

Completion: 5/5.

Model: GPT-6.1-Sol (high). Harness: Codex in T3 Code.

Approvability

Verdict: Not approved

Macroscope's review found this PR not approvable — This production server refactor changes pull-request discovery from shell/history reads to a new projection-store query path across startup, refresh, and backfill flows. Focused tests cover the intended metadata semantics, but the altered runtime data-access boundary and operational impact warrant human review.

Notes:

  • No code objects were reviewed. Approvability was decided on eligibility alone.

📝 Walkthrough
📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Pull-request discovery now reads thread metadata and a matching snapshot sequence through a dedicated projection-store operation. The orchestrator exposes this operation, and the thread pull-request service uses it for single-thread reads and sweeps.

Changes

Pull-request discovery

Layer / File(s) Summary
Define and implement discovery snapshots
apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/ProjectionStore.ts, apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/ProjectionPullRequestDiscovery.test.ts
The SQL and in-memory stores return filtered discovery records with a snapshot sequence. Tests cover pull-request metadata, settled and archived filtering, thread lookup, and SQL reads that avoid history tables.
Expose snapshots through the orchestrator
apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Orchestrator.ts, apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Orchestrator.control-reads.test.ts
The orchestrator delegates snapshot reads to the projection store and maps projection errors. Tests check snapshot contents and sequence changes.
Use snapshots in pull-request synchronization
apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/ThreadPullRequestService.ts, apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/ThreadPullRequestService.test.ts, apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/ProviderTurnControlService.test.ts
The service uses discovery snapshots for single-thread reads and full sweeps. Tests and mocks use the new operation.

Review details

Systems and components

  • observed — apps/server (service) was modified; 7 changed files map to changed impact.

Before / after behavior

  • observed — Modified behavior in apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Orchestrator.control-reads.test.ts: The test captures a discovery snapshot before the subsequent control dispatches and asserts that it includes the thread and its snapshot sequence equals the thread’s event sequence.
  • observed — Modified behavior in apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Orchestrator.control-reads.test.ts: After the metadata update, the test captures another snapshot and asserts the thread’s branch is null and the snapshot sequence has advanced beyond the initial snapshot.
  • observed — Modified behavior in apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Orchestrator.ts: The ProjectionPullRequestDiscoveryThread type is imported for the new discovery snapshot result.
  • observed — Modified behavior in apps/server/src/orchestration-v2/Orchestrator.ts: OrchestratorV2Shape adds getPullRequestDiscoverySnapshot, taking the projection store’s snapshot options and returning a sequence number with an array of discovery threads; failures use OrchestratorV2Error.

- Line 5649: Update the discovery read pipeline at Effect.mapError to select
thread_id alongside each payload and map decode failures per row with that
thread’s context; map SQL read failures to the read-error type rather than
ProjectionStoreSetupError, without wrapping the entire pipeline in one generic
error.

Note

Written by gpt-6.1-sol on behalf of Maria

Thanks for working on PR discovery performance. This is a 353-line query refactor, with synthetic snapshot timings rather than a reproduced user-visible failure. Right now we are only taking focused bug fixes from outside contributors, under the limited review capacity described in Read this first. Please preserve the performance report in #18618 and request reconsideration with a focused fix for a reproduced user-visible failure.
