… (STORY-0096) ITER-0001 dependency hygiene per the usage-site rule: the leit_wind_tunnel harness uses only rapidhash in its library surface; leit_core/leit_index/ leit_text are used solely by its #[cfg(test)] integration tests, so they move to [dev-dependencies] and no longer appear in the harness's production dependency graph. The bench crates were already correct (empty lib; all deps dev). Library build, 17 unit tests, and both bench crates verified green.
… (STORY-0112) ITER-0001: BlockId, FilterExprId, SegmentOrd, SegmentLocalDocId in leit_core, each a #[repr(transparent)] newtype over a [u8; 4] little-endian inner deriving bytemuck Pod/Zeroable. The on-disk form is the in-memory form: a &[u8] slice from an mmap'd buffer casts in place to &[Id] with no allocation or deserialization (zero-copy), stable across host endianness; ordering is numeric. bytemuck chosen over zerocopy because zerocopy's derives emit internal #[allow(non_ascii_idents)]/#[allow(non_local_definitions)] that conflict with the workspace's forbid-level Linebender lints (E0453); bytemuck is no_std and lint-clean under the same forbid set. Proven by SCENARIO-0005 (6 unit tests: value + slice + unaligned round-trip, numeric ordering, LE byte layout).
Records the design-decidable decisions for the Phase 2 segment format (DEC-01..10) with rationale, a Phase 3 forward-compatibility audit, and decision->enforcement traceability. Human-confirmed key calls: - DEC-01 segment offsets: u64 (no size cap; removes the only Phase 3 format-migration risk) - DEC-10 integrity: single footer checksum, verified in Full validation mode - DEC-06 block-aware API: public dedicated BlockCursor trait (Phase 3 WAND consumes it without a format/API break) - DEC-05 header: fixed-layout little-endian POD, absolute u64 section offsets, magic + version + format_flags, reserved stored-fields/columnar slots Decision-documentation ACs of STORY-0078/0081-0084/0090/0043-0047 are satisfied here (decided:ITER-0001); their code-enforcement ACs are deferred to ITER-0003/0004. Forward constraint recorded for ITER-0005: block-metadata schema must carry per-block max_score + doc-range for Phase 3 WAND/MaxScore.
…ORY-0112 AC-2) ITER-0001 audit corrective: SCENARIO-0005 now also exercises try_from_bytes/ try_cast_slice (Ok on well-formed, Err on malformed) per AC-2's validated-read obligation.
…elta) [ITER-0002] Codec layer for ITER-0002. A Codec trait with two implementations over a stable v1 block format, plus the layout decisions (DEC-11 fixed 128-doc blocks, DEC-12 layout) and a new TermFreq segment-resident type. - DeltaVarint (CodecId 0) + BlockDelta (CodecId 1, 128-doc independently-decodable blocks with validated first/last-doc header range). - Hand-rolled LEB128 varint into a type-enforced [u8;5]; no_std + alloc; no new deps. - API speaks named segment-resident types SegmentLocalDocId + TermFreq (no anonymous u32 drift); EntityId stays the in-memory abstraction, lowered at the segment boundary. - Decode into caller-provided &mut Vec<..> — scratch-ownership-agnostic (TODO(ITER-0003) / STORY-0079). Doc-sorted precondition enforced via checked_sub (deterministic panic). - CodecId marker per list; segment-format reservation deferred:ITER-0004. Stories: STORY-0002/0003/0004/0005(AC1-2)/0009 done; STORY-0087/0088 decided. Proof: SCENARIO-0006 (36 leit_postings tests). PAR spec + quality reviewed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
…ER-0002 T6-T7] SCENARIO-0070 (process-level): Criterion benchmark comparing DeltaVarint vs BlockDelta over the deterministic wind-tunnel corpus (1K/10K, multi-field, Zipfian). Measures encode time, decode time, and compressed size vs the 8-byte/posting baseline, with a lossless sanity gate. Baseline: DeltaVarint ~25%, BlockDelta ~26-27% of uncompressed; DeltaVarint decode ~4-11% faster. - crates/leit_wind_tunnel_index/benches/codec_compare.rs (+ [[bench]], leit_postings/ leit_core dev-deps). Criterion stays out of all primary crates (SCENARIO-0061/0069 pass). - leit_index: PostingEntry made public + InMemoryIndex::postings_by_term() accessor, the minimal surface needed to extract doc-sorted (SegmentLocalDocId, TermFreq) postings (lowering stands in for the ITER-0004 segment-write boundary). - docs/2026-05-30-codec-tradeoffs.md — STORY-0006 AC-3 decode-cost vs memory guidance. Stories: STORY-0006 (benchmark + guidance). Proof: SCENARIO-0070. PAR reviewed. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
…ons [ITER-0003 T1] DEC-13: workspace-borrowed DecodeScratch (resolves TODO at codec.rs:153). DEC-14: layered cursor capabilities (DocCursor/TfCursor/BlockCursor; positions deferred). STORY-0079/0080/0089 decision ACs.
leit_postings cursor module over the ITER-0002 codec: - CursorStatus, DecodeScratch (workspace-borrowed, DEC-13), BlockSummary, PostingsView (borrowed view; decoupled from segment BlockMeta, TODO(ITER-0005) for sidecar lowering) - Layered DocCursor(current_doc/advance/advance_to)/TfCursor/BlockCursor (DEC-14) - CompressedCursor over decode_any; advance_to via binary search, never backward - CursorFactory (codec-agnostic) + BlockDecoder (real per-block decode for BlockDelta) - ScoreBound; block-aware API surface only (STORY-0024 AC-2 execution deferred Phase3; STORY-0081 AC-2 boundary) - 11 cursor tests (SCENARIO-0034/0035/0036/0038/0039/0041/0042/0043 + block API contract 0002/0009) - clippy clean (host + no_std aarch64-unknown-none), fmt clean
…iliation [ITER-0003 T7-T8] T7: allocation-evidence tests — scratch_reuse_no_realloc (SCENARIO-0039/0019/0024), hot_path_capacity_stable_and_cursor_small (SCENARIO-0040), and the empty-summaries conservative-default contract test (PAR B finding). T8: forward-extensibility module doc (STORY-0010); reconciled the legacy generic in-memory cursor traits with the canonical cursor:: API — InMemoryCursor methods are now inherent, the three colliding generic traits removed, canonical cursor traits re-exported at the crate root. Updated property_invariants.rs + phase1_readiness.rs consumers. clippy clean (host + no_std); workspace tests green.
…rsor [ITER-0003B T1] Add leit_index -> leit_postings dependency, record DEC-15 (dual cursor sources behind one trait-based executor: zero-copy in-memory cursor for the default path, CompressedCursor for the equivalence proof), and implement MemPostingsCursor — a zero-copy DocCursor+TfCursor over &[PostingEntry], semantically interchangeable with CompressedCursor. 11 cursor unit tests.
…0003B T2] Refactor InMemoryIndex term scoring into a single TfCursor-generic helper (score_via_cursor) driven by MemPostingsCursor on the default in-memory path, replacing direct Vec<PostingEntry> iteration in eval_term and collect_term. Block-level pruning, scoring math, and execution stats are byte-identical; the helper is generic over TfCursor so T3 reuses it with CompressedCursor. All leit_index + leit_integration_tests stay green (non-regression).
…6 [ITER-0003B T3] Thread a CursorSource selector through evaluate_plan_with_source -> evaluate_node_with_source -> eval_term_with_source so the compressed path (PostingsView + DecodeScratch + CompressedCursor over DeltaVarint/BlockDelta encoded postings) is a real execution path; existing callers default to InMemory (non-regression). SCENARIO-0026 integration test proves byte-identical ordered top-k across in-memory, DeltaVarint, and BlockDelta sources over single-term/AND/fielded queries, incl. a >128-posting term (multi-block decode). Closes STORY-0008 umbrella + STORY-0088 AC-2.
…TER-0003B T4] Add SCENARIO-0010 (STORY-0005 AC-3): a BlockDecoder::decode_block test proving partial postings retrieval decodes only the target block of a multi-block BlockDelta list (not the full list, no docs from earlier blocks). Lazy cursor-driven skip-during-decode is Phase 3 (CompressedCursor decodes eagerly). Iteration wrap-up: SCENARIO-0001/0015 mapped to the SCENARIO-0026 harness, STORY-0001 AC-2 to the existing BlockCursor API; EPIC-001 19/19.
Document the rationale for introducing a new fixed-header v1 segment format and for deprecating (rather than deleting) the original directory-based format, keeping the old reader as a frozen, backward-compatible shim that a future release removes.
Introduce a self-describing on-disk segment format alongside the existing in-memory index: - Fixed 80-byte header (little-endian): magic, version, format flags, and absolute u64 section offsets, with clean rejection of unknown versions and bad magic. - Trailing footer with a CRC32C checksum over the segment body for corruption detection. - Borrowed, zero-copy section readers (field table, lexicon with a term-bytes blob + fixed-width index, postings table, postings data) with bounds-checked, panic-free access on malformed input. - A segment writer that serialises an in-memory index into the format. - A borrowed SegmentView with three open-time validation modes (header-only, structural, full), trading startup cost for integrity guarantees. - Structured, no-heap-allocation segment error types. no_std + alloc compatible.
Add the fixed-width 12-byte block-metadata table entry — inclusive end document, a scorer-agnostic impact upper bound, and a payload-relative decode offset — as the v1 sidecar schema, with a zero-copy little-endian round-trip. Record the sidecar's physical placement, implicit per-term doc-range, and content decisions in the architecture notes.
Read per-block summaries (inclusive end document, impact upper bound, relative decode offset) from the block-metadata sidecar via alignment-free little-endian decoding, so the section may begin at any buffer offset. Empty, truncated, malformed, and out-of-range sections all surface a structured error instead of panicking, and reading summaries never touches the postings payload.
…writing Split each term's postings into fixed-size document windows and emit a per-block summary (inclusive end document, impact upper bound, and a payload-relative decode offset) into the block-metadata section. The postings-table entry now carries each term's first-block index and block count so a reader can locate its summaries, and the segment checksum covers the populated section. Block summaries let a reader skip to the relevant block without scanning the full postings payload.
Add the conversion from a segment block-metadata entry to the cursor-layer block summary, dropping the segment-only decode offset, so block-aware traversal can consume persisted summaries. Add a structural-overhead check asserting the sidecar costs a fixed twelve bytes per block and is readable without touching the postings payload.
…ecoded Assert the segment writer records the columnar offset in the header but writes no columnar bytes — the slot shares its offset with the stored-fields and footer positions — and confirm no reader decodes columnar content.
Promote the segment section accessors to the public surface, add field and term count accessors alongside the existing document count, and re-export the section reader types so a deserialized segment can be inspected through stable public API. A public round-trip test reads indexed field, term, and postings content back byte-for-byte using only the public surface.
Add an optional, std-only memory-mapping path: a segment can be opened from a file and borrowed as a zero-copy view whose lifetime is tied to the map handle. Header validation runs on open; structural and checksum validation run when a view is taken, so a valid-header/corrupt-body file is caught at view time. The mapped view produces byte-identical field, term, postings, and block-summary content to a buffer-backed view. The mapping is gated behind a cargo feature so the default no_std build is unaffected, and the segment thread-safety model is recorded in the architecture notes.
Add a version-dispatched migration entry point that validates a segment and returns it at the current format version — today an identity pass-through for the sole version, with an explicit dispatch seam for future conversions — and cleanly rejects unknown versions with an informative error rather than silently passing them through. Record the version support and deprecation policy in the architecture notes.
Add a two-multi-block-term segment whose terms cover disjoint document ranges and assert each term's block end-documents come from its own postings, never continued from the previous term's last block — pinning the implicit per-term doc-range derivation as a behavior, not just documentation.
