feat: multibyte capability map overlay (#903)

[efiten]

Summary

• Adds multibyte_sup / multibyte_evidence columns to nodes + inactive_nodes via ingestor migration (multibyte_sup_v1)
• Server detects the columns at startup, persists capability results to the DB after each analytics cycle, and enriches all /api/nodes responses: multibyte_sup = 0/1/2, multibyte_evidence = "advert" / "path" / null
• Capability detection runs from the existing analytics hash-size cycle (~15s) — no startup scan, no per-packet cost, no downgrade possible; values are persisted so cold start serves last-known capability immediately
• Map controls get a "Show multibyte capability" toggle (under Byte Size, persisted in localStorage); repeater markers: solid green = confirmed, light green dashed = suspected, dimmed = unknown
• Popup shows evidence label when overlay is active

Test plan

• cd cmd/ingestor && go test ./... — covers multibyte_sup_v1 migration for nodes + inactive_nodes
• cd cmd/server && go test ./... — covers node enrichment, multibyte capability detection, DB persistence roundtrip
• Open Map, toggle "Show multibyte capability" — repeater markers change color; toggle survives reload
• Click a repeater with overlay active — popup shows confirmed/suspected/not detected
• Verify non-repeater nodes are unaffected by the multibyte toggle

Closes #903

Independent review (round 1)

Reviewed cold against the PR description scope. Verdict: NEEDS-WORK.

Scope mismatch (description vs diff)

• PR body claims: "Also fixes OOM crash on cold start with large DB: Load() now applies the retentionHours cutoff at startup, matching EvictStale() behaviour" — but no such change exists in the diff. There is no Load() change, no retentionHours cutoff, and the corresponding test plan item ("Restart server with a large DB — verify it reaches 'listening' within the retention window load time") is unsupported. Either remove the claim and the test plan item, or add the fix in this PR.
• PR body claims: "Capability detection runs from the existing analytics hash-size cycle (~15s)" and the design doc (docs/superpowers/specs/2026-04-25-multibyte-map-overlay-design.md) explicitly says values are persisted to the DB columns via persistMultiByteCapability() so cold start works without a scan. Diff implements neither: there is no persistMultiByteCapability function, the migration columns are added but never written to, and enrichment is via an in-memory snapshot only. Implementation does not match the linked plan/spec, which are also being merged into the repo. Either implement the persistence path or strip the migration columns + design doc from this PR.

Must-fix

1. cmd/server/store.go:6859 — GetMultibyteCapMap() is added but the old GetMultiByteCapMap() (store.go:6628) is not removed, leaving two near-identical methods returning differently-typed maps (map[string]MultiByteCapEntry vs map[string]*MultiByteCapEntry); only the new one is called from routes — dead code.
2. cmd/server/store.go:6617 — EnrichNodeWithMultiByte() (capital B) is now unreferenced from production code (routes.go switched to enrichNodeWithMultibyte); only its own test (multibyte_enrich_test.go) keeps it alive — dead code, delete both.
3. cmd/server/store.go:194 — multiByteCapCache field + 15s TTL logic in old GetMultiByteCapMap becomes unreachable once #1/#2 are removed; remove field and dependent state.
4. cmd/ingestor/db.go:469-481 — migration body discards every Exec error. If ALTER TABLE ... ADD COLUMN fails (column already exists, disk full, etc.) the migration silently records multibyte_sup_v1 as done. Use if _, err := db.Exec(...); err != nil { ... } and abort/log like the rest of applySchema.
5. cmd/ingestor/db.go:469 — extra blank line after the previous migration's closing brace (double-blank); cosmetic but inconsistent with the rest of applySchema.
6. cmd/server/db.go:23-24 — hasObsRawHex / hasMultibyteSupCols lines are misaligned (extra tab on the new field) — gofmt-noise.
7. cmd/server/db.go:86-101 — new PRAGMA loop in detectSchema() swallows the scan error with if … == nil and silently bails on Query error with return. Other branches in detectSchema log (e.g. [schema] lines elsewhere). At minimum log the failure so misdetections are diagnosable in prod.
8. cmd/server/db.go:1903-1934 — scanNodeRow builds the result map with "multibyte_sup": int(multibyteSup.Int64) unconditionally, even when hasMultibyteSupCols == false. This means the API returns multibyte_sup: 0 (not omitted) on un-migrated databases, which the design doc treats as "unknown" but is indistinguishable from "DB doesn't know yet". Either omit when not scanned, or document that 0 collapses both states.
9. cmd/server/store.go:144-145 — alignment of mbCapSnapshot field is gofmt-noisy (mixed-width tabs against the existing block).
10. cmd/server/store.go:6859-6870 — GetMultibyteCapMap() copies the snapshot slice header under the lock then iterates outside the lock. If a writer reassigns mbCapSnapshot to a new slice that's fine, but if the writer ever mutates the existing backing array in place (currently it doesn't, but nothing enforces this), the iteration races. Add a comment that mbCapSnapshot is treated as immutable once published, or copy under the lock.
11. cmd/server/multibyte_capability_test.go:386-411 — TestGetMultibyteCapMap_Confirmed injects mbCapSnapshot directly and asserts the same map is returned. This is a tautological test of a 5-line getter; it does not exercise the analytics → snapshot publish path. Either delete or replace with a test that drives GetAnalyticsHashSizes and asserts the snapshot ends up populated.
12. cmd/server/multibyte_capability_test.go:413-422 — TestGetMultibyteCapMap_EmptyWhenNoSnapshot asserts len(m) == 0 on a freshly constructed store. Also tautological — no production behavior under test.
13. cmd/server/multibyte_capability_test.go:438-446 — TestEnrichNodeWithMultibyte_ZeroEntryNoChange passes a zero-value MultiByteCapEntry{} and asserts no change, but does not document why a zero status ("") must not write. Add a comment naming the contract ("unknown / empty status is a no-op so confirmed values are not clobbered when the snapshot is missing the pubkey").
14. cmd/server/multibyte_capability_test.go:181-201 — the renamed TestMultiByteCapability_PrefixCollision was changed from a 1-byte to a 2-byte prefix scenario. The body still asserts RepOther.Status == "suspected" based on a hop "aacc" matching aacc.... With the new len(pfx)/2 != hs guard at store.go:6776, a 2-byte hop matching a 2-byte prefix in a hs=2 packet is the only case that can ever produce "suspected" — but the test no longer exercises the collision angle (RepConfirmed vs RepOther sharing a 1-byte prefix). The test is now a generic "suspected from path" test mislabeled as "PrefixCollision". Either rename or restore the collision scenario.
15. cmd/server/multibyte_capability_test.go:417-486 — TestMultiByteCapability_HopLengthMismatch builds pathByte = buildPathByte(2, 1) (hs=2, hop_count=1) but supplies a 1-byte hop "da" in path_json — the comment says this models "pre-#886 ingestor data". This is a regression test for the new guard, which is good, but the construction is fragile: it depends on buildPathByte's internal hs encoding matching the parser's. Add an assertion that without the guard the result would be suspected, or at least cite the line of the guard so future readers know what flips when removed.
16. cmd/server/routes.go:1100-1110 — handleNodes now calls s.store.GetMultibyteCapMap() per request which allocates a fresh map[string]MultiByteCapEntry of length N every time. For /api/nodes paginated to 50 but with thousands of repeaters in the snapshot, this is wasteful. Either return the slice and look up linearly, or expose a GetMultibyteCapFor(pk) that doesn't materialize the whole map.
17. cmd/server/routes.go:1223 — same map allocation per detail-page request (one node, full map built and one lookup performed). Use a per-key getter.
18. cmd/server/routes.go:2382-2395 — enrichNodeWithMultibyte and the unexported helper live in routes.go, while symmetric EnrichNodeWithHashSize lives in store.go. Co-locate or extract into a small enrich.go; the inconsistency invites future drift.
19. public/map.js:268-269 — adds _popupOpen open/close handlers and a if (!_popupOpen) renderMarkers() gate at line 606. Completely unrelated to multibyte capability and not in the PR description. Either remove or split into a separate PR with its own justification.
20. public/map.js:759 — _popupOpen is declared as a var inside the IIFE but referenced at line 606 inside loadData() which closes over it; the line 759 declaration is dead because of hoisting (the line 268 assignments would already create a global if not declared). Move declaration above first use for readability.
21. public/map.js:1078-1083 — popup mbRow only renders when filters.multibyteOverlay && node.role === 'repeater'. The design spec (line 1500-1505 of the diff) says "When the overlay is active and a node is clicked, the popup shows the evidence label" — fine — but the previous implementation showed the row whenever the data existed regardless of toggle. New behavior loses the ability to inspect a single node's status without enabling the global overlay. Confirm with product whether this regression is intended; if yes, document.
22. public/map.js:929-930 — mbSup is assigned 0 when node.multibyte_sup is missing/non-numeric, and then passed into makeRepeaterLabelIcon which dims the marker (opacity:0.45). On a not-yet-populated DB every repeater goes dim the moment the overlay is toggled on. Treat missing as null (no overlay change) instead of 0 (explicit "unknown" dim).
23. cmd/server/db_test.go:2150-2178 — TestGetNodesReturnsMultibyteSupField only asserts the field is present and equal to 0. It never tests the case hasMultibyteSupCols == true && row has non-zero value — which is the actual new behavior. Add an INSERT with multibyte_sup=2, multibyte_evidence='advert' and assert both round-trip through scanNodeRow.
24. cmd/ingestor/db_test.go:488-541 — TestSchemaMultibyteSupColumns checks columns exist on nodes and inactive_nodes but does not assert _migrations row was inserted, nor that re-running applySchema is idempotent (skips the migration on re-open). Add a second OpenStore on the same path and assert no error / no duplicate-column failure.
25. docs/superpowers/plans/2026-04-25-multibyte-map-overlay-design.md and …-overlay.md — 931 lines of planning docs are merged into master alongside the code. Plans/specs typically don't belong in the public repo's permanent history, especially when the implementation has already diverged from them (no DB persist, no persistMultiByteCapability). Either update the docs to match the actual implementation, or drop them from the PR.

Out-of-scope

1. The _popupOpen re-render suppression (item #19) is a separate concern; if kept, file as its own issue with reproduction + rationale.
2. The OOM/Load() retentionHours fix mentioned in the PR body (but absent from the diff) should be tracked as its own issue.
3. The dual GetMultiByteCapMap / GetMultibyteCapMap and EnrichNodeWithMultiByte / enrichNodeWithMultibyte naming churn suggests an incomplete rename — file an issue to standardize the casing project-wide (MultiByte vs Multibyte) so the next PR doesn't add a third spelling.

All 25 items addressed in commit 57a3331. Summary:

Blockers resolved:

• DB persistence implemented: persistMultibyteCapability() writes to nodes/inactive_nodes after each analytics cycle; loadMultibyteCapFromDB() pre-populates mbCapSnapshot on cold start. go s.persist…() is fire-and-forget so it doesn't block the analytics path.
• PR description updated: removed false OOM/Load() claim (that code already existed in upstream/master).

Dead code removed (items 1–3): GetMultiByteCapMap(), EnrichNodeWithMultiByte(), multiByteCapCache field, and multibyte_enrich_test.go deleted.

Code quality (items 4–10, 16–18):

• Migration now checks all Exec errors and returns on failure.
• gofmt run on db.go/store.go.
• [schema] log added on PRAGMA table_info error.
• scanNodeRow only includes multibyte_sup/evidence when hasMultibyteSupCols is true.
• GetMultibyteCapFor(pk) per-key getter added; both routes call sites updated (no full-map alloc per request).
• enrichNodeWithMultibyte moved from routes.go to store.go.

map.js (items 19, 22): _popupOpen handlers/gate/declaration removed; missing multibyte_sup now treated as null instead of 0.

Tests (items 11–15, 23–24): Tautological tests replaced with analytics-cycle-driven test; comments and names fixed; non-zero roundtrip and idempotency assertions added.

Cleanup (item 25): Planning docs removed from PR.

Item 21 (popup visibility) — current behaviour (only show mbRow when overlay is active) is intentional: the overlay toggle is the signal that the user cares about the capability data. The previous always-show behaviour would clutter popups for users who haven't enabled the overlay. No change.

Pushed 7e9e36e — fixes the #1221 VCR LED clock in-row with controls and unclipped on mobile E2E failure.

Root cause: .vcr-lcd-canvas at width: 78px caused the total LCD element (canvas + padding + border = 88px) to push the row 0.83px past the 375px viewport right edge. This was also failing on master at run 25997876404 with identical numbers — pre-existing upstream issue.

Fix: reduced canvas to 74px (element = 84px), giving 4px of margin against sub-pixel rounding. All other test assertions (in-row, width < 100px, not clipped on other edges) still pass.

Consolidated review — PR #916

Two parallel reviewers (adversarial + meshcore-protocol). Verdict: NEEDS-WORK — data destruction bug at P0.

MUST-FIX

1. 🔴 CRITICAL: data destruction. persistMultibyteCapability (cmd/server/store.go:7854-7882) loops through mbEntries, calls multibyteStatusToInt(e.Status) (which returns 0 for "unknown"), then unconditionally UPDATE nodes SET multibyte_sup=0, multibyte_evidence=NULL WHERE public_key=?. A node that was previously confirmed but falls out of the in-memory evidence window (eviction, retention rollover, restart-then-empty-snapshot before first full cycle) gets its persisted confirmed/suspected status wiped every ~15s. loadMultibyteCapFromDB then loads zeros from the freshly-zeroed DB — the headline cold-start-serves-last-known-capability claim is broken. Fix: skip entries where sup == 0 in the persist loop, OR change the UPDATE to only fire when sup > 0, OR use a separate explicit "decay" path for genuine downgrades.

2. Unbounded goroutine launch. go s.persistMultibyteCapability(mbEntries) at cmd/server/store.go:6862 fires per analytics-cache miss / recomputer tick with no singleflight gate. If persist is slow (single-conn cachedRW pool, N≈5000 UPDATEs per tx, busy WAL), goroutines pile up and serialize on the rw conn. Wrap with a sync.Mutex or singleflight.Group so at most one persist runs at a time; coalesce subsequent cycles.

3. Perf regression of prior CR items 16/17. GetMultibyteCapFor at cmd/server/store.go:7948-7959 is an O(N) linear scan over the snapshot slice. Called inside handleNodes loop (up to limit times per request) and on detail pages. Worst case O(limit·N) per request — strictly worse than the original map+single-alloc pattern the prior reviewer asked you to keep. Change mbCapSnapshot from []MultiByteCapEntry to map[string]MultiByteCapEntry (or maintain a parallel index) so GetMultibyteCapFor is O(1).

4. No tests for persist↔load round-trip (the headline fix). Missing:

   • Assertion that values written by persistMultibyteCapability round-trip through loadMultibyteCapFromDB.
   • Assertion that on cold start, mbCapSnapshot is non-empty before the first analytics cycle.
   • Assertion that re-running persist with a smaller entries slice does the right thing (gates must-fix #1 too).

Perf regression risk vs recent merges

5. The data-destruction bug interacts badly with the steady-state recomputer (#1248). Cached analytics snapshots will reflect the zeroed mbCapSnapshot for 5 minutes between recomputes — so the UI will show "no capability data" for 5min windows, not just transient seconds. Fix must-fix #1 BEFORE this merges or the perf wins from #1248 will mask the symptom and operators will assume the data simply doesn't exist.

Prior CHANGES_REQUESTED (25 items): 21 ✅, 2 ⚠️-accepted, 2 ❌ (CR 16/17 → must-fix #3).

Out-of-scope (flag, don't block)

• API contract regression: old multi_byte_status/multi_byte_evidence/multi_byte_max_hash_size fields gone; MaxHashSize no longer surfaced per-node. api-spec.md updated but external consumers of old field names break silently. Worth a deprecation notice if any consumers exist.
• Test coverage regression: TestMultiByteCapability_PrefixCollision renamed to _SuspectedFromPath and rewritten — no longer covers the actual 2-byte collision case (two nodes sharing aacc… both showing "suspected" from a single hs=2 hop). _HopLengthMismatch only covers malformed legacy data. File a follow-up to restore real-collision coverage.
• public/live.css:1059 VCR LCD width change (78px → 74px) is unrelated #1221 fix — belongs in its own PR.
• Cosmetic blank line after // --- Helpers --- at cmd/server/routes.go:2410.

Once must-fix 1-4 land, this is good to merge. Item 1 is the blocker — data destruction silently undoes the work this PR is shipping.

[efiten]

Round-2 must-fix items addressed in commit dab7bba:

1. Data destruction fix — persistMultibyteCapability now skips entries where sup == 0, so confirmed/suspected values already in the DB are never overwritten by an empty-snapshot cycle.
2. Unbounded goroutine — replaced bare go s.persistMultibyteCapability() with a TryLock-gated maybePersistMultibyteCapability so concurrent analytics cycles coalesce instead of piling up.
3. O(N) → O(1) lookup — mbCapSnapshot stays as []MultiByteCapEntry for ordered iteration, but a parallel mbCapIndex map[string]MultiByteCapEntry is rebuilt alongside it (in both the analytics path and cold-start load). GetMultibyteCapFor now hits the map directly.
4. Round-trip tests — added persist↔load round-trip, data-destruction regression guard, concurrent TryLock safety, and O(1) index correctness tests.

CI: Go Build & Test ✅, Docker Build ✅, E2E ✅. Ready for re-review.
