Implement Issue #4: Idempotency Analysis & Migration Safety Validation
Summary
This MR implements comprehensive idempotency analysis and migration safety validation tools for Graphile Migrate, addressing Issue #4 (closed).
🚀 New MCP Tools Added
-
test_migration_idempotency
- Tests migrations by running them multiple times to detect idempotency violations -
analyze_migration_safety
- Performs static analysis for safety and idempotency issues using pattern detection -
suggest_idempotency_fixes
- Provides line-by-line fix suggestions with automated rewriting capabilities -
validate_all_migrations
- Validates entire project migration sets with comprehensive risk assessment
🏗️ Core Architecture
- idempotency-analyzer.ts - Pattern detection engine for SQL idempotency analysis
- sql-analyzer.ts - Safety analysis utilities for destructive operations and performance concerns
- 4 new tool modules - Complete MCP tool implementations with comprehensive error handling
- Extended schemas - New Zod types for all tool inputs/outputs with validation
- Updated server.ts - Registered all new tools with proper routing
✨ Key Features
- Line-by-line analysis with specific suggestions and confidence scoring
- Comprehensive pattern recognition (IF NOT EXISTS, CONCURRENTLY, ON CONFLICT, etc.)
- Risk assessment and safety scoring with detailed recommendations
- Automated fix application for high-confidence suggestions
- Project-wide validation with parallel execution support
- Performance impact analysis based on table sizes and operation complexity
- Best practices compliance scoring with actionable recommendations
🧪 Testing
- Complete TDD test suite with 6 test files covering all scenarios
- Integration tests for all tools with comprehensive edge cases
- Mock database operations and file system interactions
- Edge case handling (empty files, syntax errors, connection failures)
- Error handling validation with proper error messaging
📊 Analysis Capabilities
Idempotency Patterns Detected:
- CREATE TABLE/INDEX without IF NOT EXISTS
- INSERT without ON CONFLICT handling
- DROP operations without IF EXISTS
- CREATE TYPE without error handling
- Non-concurrent index creation
- Unqualified UPDATE/DELETE operations
Safety Risk Detection:
- Destructive operations (DROP, DELETE without WHERE)
- Data loss risks (ALTER COLUMN type changes)
- Performance concerns (blocking index creation, large table operations)
- Best practice violations (missing constraints, poor naming)
Performance Analysis:
- Table size impact assessment
- Lock duration estimation
- Concurrent execution recommendations
- Maintenance window suggestions
🔗 Resolves
Closes #4 (closed) - Idempotency Analysis & Migration Safety Validation
Test Plan
-
All 4 tools function correctly when tested directly -
Build succeeds without errors -
Code formatting passes Prettier checks -
Comprehensive test coverage for all scenarios -
CI pipeline validation -
Integration tests with real PostgreSQL databases using testcontainers
Implementation Notes
The implementation follows a modular architecture with clear separation of concerns:
- Core utilities handle SQL parsing and pattern detection
- Tool modules implement MCP protocol compatibility
- Schema definitions ensure type safety and validation
- Test suite provides comprehensive coverage with TDD approach
All tools return consistent MCP-compliant responses with proper error handling and user-friendly messaging.
