Summary

Adds a generic Kubernetes/operator-facing cleanup path for Evolve data owned by a deprovisioned service instance.

  • Reads optional deployment ownership from EVOLVE_SERVICE_INSTANCE_ID and persists it as reserved metadata.service_instance_id on every entity written through EvolveClient.update_entities.
  • Keeps ownership server-controlled: MCP tools do not accept a service-instance identifier, and caller-supplied values in arbitrary entity metadata are removed.
  • Scopes conflict-resolution candidates and trajectory readback to the configured service instance.
  • Adds a lightweight operator command that connects directly with psycopg, avoiding embedding-model initialization:
evolve purge service-instance --service-instance-id <id> --dry-run
evolve purge service-instance --service-instance-id <id>

The command discovers Evolve Postgres namespace tables, deletes exact service-instance matches in one transaction, emits a machine-readable JSON summary, and exits non-zero on failure. Dockerfile.core includes the lightweight reaper extra, so a Kubernetes CronJob can use the rebuilt Evolve image and override its normal MCP entrypoint.

Platform integrations are responsible for mapping their deployment identifier to the generic EVOLVE_SERVICE_INSTANCE_ID contract.

Safety properties

  • A blank service-instance identifier is rejected.
  • Only ns_* tables with Evolve's JSONB metadata shape are considered.
  • Other service instances and unattributed records are preserved.
  • Dry-run counts records without mutating them.
  • Namespace catalog rows are intentionally retained.
  • Service-instance ownership cannot be supplied through MCP arguments or arbitrary metadata.

Compatibility caveat

Existing entities are not backfilled. Records written before service-instance attribution was enabled have no trustworthy ownership marker and are intentionally left untouched by the reaper.

The destructive reaper is Postgres-only and requires EVOLVE_BACKEND=postgres plus the existing EVOLVE_PG_* connection settings.

Testing

  • .venv/bin/pytest -q tests/unit/test_service_instance_reaper.py tests/unit/test_mcp_server.py tests/unit/test_client.py (48 passed)
  • .venv/bin/ruff check .
  • .venv/bin/mypy altk_evolve tests/unit/test_service_instance_reaper.py tests/unit/test_mcp_server.py
  • pre-commit hooks (mypy, Ruff, formatting, large files, detect-secrets)

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added optional service-instance attribution for newly stored entities.
    • Added evolve purge service-instance to remove records for a service instance, with PostgreSQL support, JSON results, and dry-run previews.
    • Added service-instance-scoped conflict resolution and filtering.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Caller-supplied service-instance metadata is no longer trusted and is replaced with configured attribution.
  • Documentation

    • Documented service-instance configuration, ownership, cleanup behavior, and CLI usage.

Walkthrough

Changes

Service-instance identifiers can now be configured, stored in entity metadata, used to scope conflict resolution, and purged from PostgreSQL with a dry-run-capable CLI command.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟠 High · up to 06f74

This PR introduces a privileged service-instance purge that can delete data across multiple tables, but ownership is not uniformly enforced at the persistence boundary and the purge bypasses existing deletion protections. That could allow incorrectly attributed records or protected data to be removed, while concurrent writers may recreate data during cleanup, so the change is not merge-ready without addressing or explicitly accepting these risks.

112-118: 🔒 Security & Privacy | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Sensitive Data Exposure (CWE-319): Cleartext Transmission of Sensitive Information

Reachability: Internal · Exploitability: Moderate

⚠️ Unverified finding
Verification did not complete.

Require authenticated TLS for the PostgreSQL connection.

This call supplies resolved_settings.password without an explicit TLS mode or trusted-server verification. libpq defaults to sslmode=prefer, which can fall back to plaintext. PostgreSQL documents that this can expose connection credentials and data to a network observer; use sslmode="verify-full" with a configured trusted CA for remote connections. (postgresql.org)

Add TLS settings to PostgresDBSettings, then pass them explicitly to psycopg.connect(). Verify the deployed reaper configuration cannot override this with a weaker PGSSLMODE.

112-119: 🩺 Stability & Availability | 🔵 Trivial

Consider a statement timeout on the purge connection.

The purge holds one transaction across every namespace table. A concurrent lock can block the DELETE with no time bound, and the operator command hangs. Set options="-c statement_timeout=..." (or lock_timeout) on the connection so a blocked purge fails and rolls back instead of hanging.

Rich Console.print markup parameter default MarkupError unmatched closing tag

💡 Result:

In the Rich library, the markup parameter in the Console.print method defaults to None [1][2][3]. When set to None, it uses the console's default setting, which typically has markup enabled by default [1][4][2]. The MarkupError: unmatched closing tag occurs when the markup parser encounters a closing tag that does not correspond to an open tag [5][6][7]. This generally happens in two scenarios: 1. Mismatched tags: When you attempt to close a tag that was not the most recently opened one, such as "[bold]Hello[/red]" [5][6][7]. 2. Implicit close errors: When you use the shorthand closing tag "[/]" without any open tags remaining to be closed, such as "no tags[/]" [5][6][7]. To prevent these errors when printing strings that may contain square brackets, you can explicitly disable markup for that specific call by setting markup=False in your print method [4].

Rich 14.3.3 Console __init__ markup default Console.print markup None source

💡 Result:

In the Rich library (version 14.3.3 and surrounding versions), the Console class and its print method handle markup settings as follows: Console constructor: The Console class accepts a markup argument in its init method, which defaults to True [1][2][3]. When set to True, console markup is enabled by default for that instance [1][4]. Console.print method: The print method also accepts an optional markup argument [2][5]. When this argument is set to None (which is its default value), the print method inherits and uses the markup setting defined in the Console constructor [2][5]. If an explicit True or False is provided to the print method, it overrides the Console's default setting [4][6]. In summary, if you initialize a Console with the default settings, markup is enabled [1][3]. If you call print without specifying a markup argument, it will use the Console instance's default state (which is True) [2][5]. Providing None to print(markup=None) is equivalent to relying on the Console's inherited default [2].
