TML-3166: Close the affected-row-counts project

[StevenMcClankerton]

Linked issue

Refs TML-3166

Delivered by #29907, #29920, and #29921.

At a glance

interface SqlQueryable {
  query<Row>(request: SqlExecuteRequest): AsyncIterable<Row>
  execute(request: SqlExecuteRequest): Promise<{ affectedRows: number }>
}

The project is complete: count-returning writes use one statement and return the database-reported statistic rather than counting rows from a preceding read.

Decision

Close the affected-row-counts project by preserving its durable architecture and semantics in the canonical ADRs, subsystem documentation, and scorecards, then deleting the transient project workspace.

Project DoD verification

• The SQL driver SPI has separate row-query and statement-statistics operations, with prepared-ness carried by the request handle.
• Postgres and SQLite return real affectedRows values, and Mongo maps modifiedCount or deletedCount according to the command kind.
• updateAndCount and deleteAndCount issue one write statement; integration coverage proves the returned count comes from that write.
• The pre-SELECT fallback and retired operation names are absent.
• ADR 210 documents the two-method prepared-statement SPI and DRIVER.PREPARE_FAILED under ADR 239.
• ADR 215 and the runtime subsystem documentation describe the operation-specific query and execute middleware lifecycles.
• SQL and Mongo scorecards record the shipped count-terminal behavior and target-specific semantics.
• Manual documentation QA passed for both application users and extension/driver/middleware authors.
• The mandatory final retro landed a dispatch-DoR guard requiring explicit design-owner approval for public or cross-family API shapes.
• All tracked project artifacts are deleted and no tracked references to the removed workspace remain.

How it fits together

1. ADR 210 records the two-method SQL driver contract and the runtime-owned prepared-handle lifecycle.
2. ADR 215 and the runtime subsystem page describe beforeQuery / interceptQuery / afterQuery separately from beforeExecute / interceptExecute / afterExecute.
3. The Mongo subsystem and both scorecards state each target's native affected-row semantics and point to qualifying evidence.
4. The reusable process lesson lands in Drive's dispatch Definition of Ready.
5. The transient specs, plans, dispatch briefs, decision log, QA artifacts, and retro log are removed.

Notes for the reviewer

The large runtime-documentation diff replaces stale generic middleware terminology with the operation-specific lifecycle on main. ADR 215 preserves the original May 2026 decision and its rationale under a historical section while adding the August 2026 amendment.

The manual-QA script, report, and retro were created and committed as close-out evidence before being removed with the rest of the transient workspace; their evidence remains in this branch's signed commit history.

Testing performed

• Manual QA: durable-documentation read-through for application and extension-author audiences — pass, no findings
• Local Markdown link validation — no missing links
• pnpm lint:docs — pass, with pre-existing package README warnings
• git diff --check origin/main...HEAD — pass
• Source and integration behavior — green on merged PR TML-3168: Return affected write counts without pre-SELECT #29921 CI, including Test, Integration Tests, E2E, Coverage, Type Check, Lint, and Supabase Acceptance

Skill update

The existing Prisma Next upgrade instructions shipped with #29921. This close-out adds no new user-facing API change.

Checklist

• All commits are signed off (git commit -s) per the DCO.
• I read CONTRIBUTING.md and the change is scoped to one logical concern.
• Tests are n/a for this documentation and project-cleanup PR; merged implementation CI and close-out manual QA provide the behavior evidence.
• The PR title is in TML-NNNN: <sentence-case title> form.
• The Skill update section is filled in.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• New Features

  • Query and execute operations now have distinct lifecycles and results: queries stream rows, while executions report affected-row statistics.
  • SQL and MongoDB provide clearer update and delete counts, including no-op updates and deleted-document totals.
  • Prepared statement and transaction behavior is documented with clearer lazy execution and resource handling details.

• Documentation

  • Updated architecture, middleware, MongoDB, SQL ORM, and scorecard documentation to reflect current behavior and supported operations.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Mergeability Score: 🟡 Moderate · up to 8efc0

The PR closes the affected-row-counts project and records the resulting driver and middleware contracts, but the prepared-statement documentation currently leaves handle reuse insufficiently scoped across connections, which could lead to incorrect statement execution if implemented as written. The SQL surface and Mongo lifecycle documentation also need bounded follow-up for contract completeness and consistency, so merge should wait for correction or explicit owner acceptance.

In `@docs/architecture` docs/adrs/ADR 210 - Prepared Statements - Author Surface
and Driver SPI.md:
- Around line 5-17: Update the prepared-statement driver contract around
SqlExecuteRequest and the lazy-allocation description to explicitly branch when
preparedStatementHandle is undefined: execute one-shot query() or execute()
requests without reading or initializing the slot, while retaining slot
allocation and reuse for prepared statements.
- Line 98: Update the ADR’s prepared execute lifecycle to define how
SqlQueryable.execute() handles preparedStatementHandle: specify handle
initialization, the opt-out path, stale-handle detection, clearing and
re-preparing, a single retry, and returning DRIVER.PREPARE_FAILED when
re-preparation fails. If prepared execute is not supported, replace the current
request contract with a separate contract that excludes preparedStatementHandle.

In `@docs/architecture` docs/subsystems/10. MongoDB Family.md:
- Around line 339-346: Update the MongoDB architecture documentation around
MongoRuntime.execute and MongoDriver.execute to state that execute returns an
AsyncIterable<Row> for both supported paths, requires exactly one result,
extracts modifiedCount or deletedCount, and maps it to affectedRows; document
validation failures for missing or non-unique results and link the canonical
MongoDriver SPI definition.

In `@docs/architecture` docs/subsystems/4. Runtime & Middleware Framework.md:
- Line 502: Qualify the documentation so beforeCompile applies only to
AST-backed SQL plans, explicitly noting that raw SQL plans bypass it. In
docs/architecture docs/subsystems/4. Runtime &amp; Middleware Framework.md lines
502-502, update the execution pipeline step; in docs/architecture docs/adrs/ADR
215 - Runtime middleware lifecycle beforeExecute before encodeParams.md lines
33-38, qualify the shared compilation step and both operation descriptions.
- Around line 543-546: Update the transaction example so the lazy result from
tx.orm.posts.all() is consumed and materialized inside the transaction callback
before it commits; keep the writePlan transaction behavior unchanged.
- Around line 384-385: Update the Runtime-to-Lower sequence diagram so
structural lowering returns the user-domain draft directly, then show the
selected beforeQuery/beforeExecute hook mutating that draft before encoding.
Align the sequence with the documented pipeline and ADR 215, removing the
implication that Lower performs the before-hook step.
- Around line 309-314: Update the RuntimeScope example in docs/architecture
docs/subsystems/4. Runtime &amp; Middleware Framework.md: define SqlOrmPlan with
a default Row type parameter of unknown and change query to accept
SqlOrmPlan&lt;Row&gt;. The sibling ADR at docs/architecture docs/adrs/ADR 215 -
Runtime middleware lifecycle beforeExecute before encodeParams.md:98-101 already
matches the contract and requires no direct change.

Scope prepared-statement handles per connection.

#preparedStatementHandles is keyed only by PreparedStatement, but the bridge executes the same statement against different connections and transactions. A handle from one target can reach another target, or overwrite the handle needed by the first target. Key the slot by the active connection, or remove cross-connection reuse and revise the lifecycle claims. Add a test that uses one PreparedStatement across two connections and expects independent handles.

On it — I am applying the accepted documentation corrections from this review body.

[StevenMcClankerton]

On it — I am applying the accepted SPI documentation correction and will leave the connection-keyed handle proposal unchanged as out of scope.

[StevenMcClankerton]

Addressed the named SqlStatementStats/explain correction in ffc2dfa. I am not changing handle storage to be connection-keyed: that is a design-changing request outside this documentation closeout; the current driver-scoped behavior is deliberate and covered by the existing prepared-statement tests.

[StevenMcClankerton]

Addressed in ffc2dfa. The accepted documentation corrections cover absent-handle one-shot query/execute behavior, low-level prepared execute lifecycle without a public prepared-statistics API, AST-only beforeCompile, transaction materialization, Mongo statistics validation, the corrected RuntimeScope example, and the sequence diagram.
