perf: make the /explore aggregates index-only and cache them with SWR - #209
Conversation
/explore/authors took 9-14.5s on every production hit; /explore took 6-9s cold. All three author-directory queries grouped the whole of hive_book_author joined to hive_book and planned as an index probe plus a full-row fetch from the 1.8 GB table — 371k random reads. bun:sqlite is synchronous, so each one froze a whole worker's event loop, and at WEB_CONCURRENCY=3 that stalls a third of all traffic, not just those routes. Migration 024 adds hive_book(id, ratingsCount, rating, language) and hive_book_author(position, author, hiveId) so both sides of the join are covering. The queries name it with INDEXED BY deliberately: this database has no sqlite_stat1, and with no stats the planner prefers the UNIQUE autoindex and goes straight back to the table, so the index would be dead weight. ANALYZE was rejected as the alternative because it would re-plan every query in an app whose indexes were all tuned against the no-stats planner. Measured on a read-only snapshot of production (371,400 books, 1.86 GB): /explore/authors 14,414ms -> 565ms, /explore -> 358ms, both 2-5ms warm. Output is unchanged: same 500 rows in the same order, 8/8 featured covers. Also in this change: - Featured authors is now a strict prefix of the directory list rather than a second copy of the same aggregate, and covers come from a bounded per-author CTE instead of scanning the globally top-1200 books. - Caching moved inside the helpers (24h TTL, 1h stale-while-revalidate) so /explore, /explore/authors and XRPC getExplore share one policy. They had three, one of which was no cache at all. - /explore/authors honours ?lang=, and lang is validated against getAvailableLanguages everywhere before it can key a cached aggregate. - Fix WITH ... SELECT being classified as a non-reader in the Kysely wrapper, which made any CTE query return zero rows with no error at all. Reader status now comes from SQLite via stmt.columnNames. - Fix the anon page cache measuring its size limit on uncompressed bytes: /explore/genres is 641 KB raw but 30 KB gzipped, so it was rejected outright and has never been cached in production. - Fix the anon page cache key discarding the query string (unstorage's normalizeKey splits on "?"), which served /explore?lang=French the English render and /authors/X?page=2 page 1. - Stamp readThroughCache entries after the fetch resolves, so a slow fetch is not born stale.

Public profile request handling
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to Authenticated profile responses can be reused across viewers, potentially exposing requester-specific relationship state, while batch profile reads bypass expiration handling. The documented genre aggregate optimization also remains incomplete because its required index is missing.

Create the genre-first index required by the aggregate query.
Migration 014 drops idx_hive_book_genre_genre at src/db.ts Line 473. Migration 024 does not restore it. The remaining idx_hive_book_genre_pk(hiveId, genre) cannot support GROUP BY genre.
As a result, src/utils/exploreGenres.ts cannot use its documented index-only plan. The query-plan test at src/utils/authorStats.test.ts Lines 123-130 also fails after migration.

Normalize lang before anonymous page-cache key construction.
anonPageCache runs before /explore and /explore/authors and creates different KV keys for arbitrary lang values. Normalize, reject, or omit invalid values before key construction. Update AGENTS.md to distinguish page-cache normalization from aggregate-cache validation.

…cefully during outages The public fetch handler in getProfile/getProfiles had no timeout, so when public.api.bsky.app was unreachable pages hung for ~50s (the OS TCP timeout). This affected /pds, /books/:id, /profile/:handle, and the marketing page — any route that resolves uncached Bluesky profiles. Three changes: - Add AbortSignal.timeout(10_000) to the publicHandler fetch - Wrap getProfiles' fetch in try/catch so a timeout returns cached profiles instead of crashing the render (getProfile already had this) - Add publicOnly option to skip getSessionAgent() on definitively anonymous pages (/pds, marketing landing) Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
