📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe change adds recursive PostgreSQL relation inspection, detects unsupported foreign and view relations, and applies consistent refusal or skip behavior across table diff, repair, Merkle checks, schema diff, and replication-set diff. Tests, documentation, and CI coverage support the new behavior. ChangesRelation support and validation

around RelationInfo.Qualified() with a structured key containing separate schema
and name fields, so quoted identifiers remain distinct. Update the related

versus `"a.b"."c"` with the foreign-relation behavior.

Add RelationTree struct and methods to traverse pg_inherits recursively. GetRelationTree fetches root and all descendants in depth-first order, with methods to filter heap leaves, foreign relations, and check inheritance.
Add checks in RunChecks to reject tables that are foreign tables or have foreign relations in their inheritance tree. Merkle tree support for inheritance with foreign children is deferred to a later ticket, so queries are rejected with clear messages instead of failing later during publication.
…-diff schema-diff already excludes foreign tables via information_schema's table_type filter, but gave no indication of what it left out. It now looks up the foreign tables in the schema and logs them as skipped. repset-diff lists tables from spock.tables, which does not distinguish foreign tables from regular ones. It now checks each table's relation kind and skips (with a log line) any that turn out to be foreign.

…gn partitions with a clear message table-diff, table-repair, and mtree read the table's inheritance tree in one catalog query before the column and primary key checks, and refuse foreign tables, views, and any partitioned table or inheritance parent that contains a foreign relation, naming the relations involved. A view next to an underscore-prefixed table of the same name gets a hint mentioning that table, since it may be the table behind the view (the coldfront tiered layout). schema-diff lists the views it skips alongside the foreign tables. Docs cover the refused relation kinds and the coldfront watermark filter.

- The PR description and docs/commands/diff/table-diff.md both say ACE "refuses everything else". The code refuses only f, v, m. A sequence, a composite type, an index, a TOAST table, a partitioned index — all return "", fall through to GetColumns, come back with zero rows from information_schema.columns.
- table_diff.go and table_repair.go both treat tree == nil as a hard error ("not found, or inadequate privileges"). merkle.go wraps the whole check in if tree != nil { ... } and silently proceeds when the table doesn't exist.

In addition, the message is misleading: it should be something like the following: |
Summary
ACE had no notion of relation kind. A foreign table, a view, or a partitioned table with a foreign partition was rejected by accident when the primary key lookup came back empty, with the message "no primary key found". An inheritance parent with a foreign child was worse: block hashing included the foreign rows, and the row fetch then failed on
xminwithcannot retrieve a system column in this context, or silently passed when the heap data happened to match.This PR adds one recursive catalog query that reads a table's inheritance tree, and uses it in the pre-checks of
table-diff,table-repair, andmtreeto refuse anything that is not a heap or partitioned table made of heap relations, saying what the relation is:schema-difflists the foreign tables and views it skips for data comparison.repset-diffskips foreign tables with a notice.Tables with no foreign relations and no views involved behave exactly as before. The only change on their path is one extra catalog query per node during the pre-checks.
Partitioned tables with a mix of Postgres heap tables and foreign tables
This is out of scope and will be addressed in the future. For this PR, this results in the operation being blocked.
coldfront
A coldfront tiered table is a view over a renamed partitioned table and an Iceberg scan, and a decoupled table is a view over Iceberg alone. Neither is a foreign table. The view refusal covers both, and the hint points at the underscore table, which is the Spock-replicated data and the right thing to compare. Verified against a live coldfront stack (PG 18, pg_duckdb, Lakekeeper, SeaweedFS) with both a tiered and a decoupled table. The docs gain a section on this, including a filter on
