Code must stay in the customer's own infrastructure.\n\n### Research Journey\n\nWe explored four storage architectures, pressure-tested each against real-world git behaviors, and arrived at a design through iterative elimination:\n\n1. **SQLite blob store** \u2014 Rejected. Reinvents git's content-addressable storage, creates a separate copy of customer code that becomes a security/compliance liability in SaaS mode.\n2. **In-repo git refs** (`refs/rae/*` in user's repo) \u2014 Explored deeply, empirically verified. Works well but leaks into `git log --all` and git GUIs. Since a shadow repo is needed anyway for external files, routing everything through it is cleaner.\n3. **Shadow bare repo** (`~/.rae/artifacts.git`) with alternates \u2014 **Recommended.** 100% opacity, automatic deduplication via alternates, self-contained exports via `git repack`, zero interference with user's git workflow.\n4. **Hybrid per-repo + shadow** \u2014 Explored but rejected in favor of shadow-for-everything. The per-repo approach's dedup advantage turns out to be free via alternates anyway.\n\n### Key Findings\n\n- **Git's `hash-object -w` respects alternates on write** \u2014 identical content is not duplicated. This was the surprising finding that made shadow-repo-for-everything viable without dedup loss.\n- **`git repack -a` internalizes alternate objects** \u2014 enables self-contained archival. Snapshots can survive the deletion of the original repo.\n- **Snapshots survive all standard git operations** (gc, rebase, reset, amend, cherry-pick, worktree removal). Empirically verified across 11 experiments.\n- **Storage overhead is negligible** \u2014 50 snapshots x 20 files = 110KB packed, thanks to delta compression.\n- **Alternates + GC = data loss risk** \u2014 Objects accessed only via alternates can be pruned by the source repo's gc. Mitigation: copy-on-snapshot to internalize objects at creation time.\n- **No interference from stacking tools** \u2014 Graphite and GitHub Stacks use standard branches. No custom refs conflict with `refs/rae/`.\n- **Root commit hash is the most stable repo identifier** \u2014 Immutable, identical across clones/worktrees/moves, works offline.\n\n### Recommended Architecture\n\n```\n~/.rae/artifacts.git                              # Single bare repo, all snapshots\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 objects/\n\u2502   \u251c\u2500\u2500 info/alternates                           # Points to user repos (dedup + live reads)\n\u2502   \u251c\u2500\u2500 pack/                                     # Internalized snapshot objects\n\u2502   \u2514\u2500\u2500                            # New snapshot objects before gc\n\u2514\u2500\u2500 refs/rae/\n    \u2514\u2500\u2500 /\n        \u251c\u2500\u2500 000                                   # Snapshot at boundary 1\n        \u251c\u2500\u2500 001                                   # Snapshot at boundary 2\n        \u2514\u2500\u2500 latest                                # Pointer to most recent\n\n~/.rae/artifacts.db                               # SQLite index\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 artifact_sessions                             # session \u2192 repos, refs, metadata\n\u2514\u2500\u2500 artifact_file_refs                            # session \u2192 file paths, blob SHAs, metadata\n```\n\n**Security model:** The SQLite index stores only references (commit SHAs, blob SHAs, file paths, metadata). File content lives in git objects \u2014 either in the shadow repo's own packfiles (self-contained) or accessible via alternates to user repos. In SaaS mode, only the index syncs to the server. Content never leaves the user's machine.\n\n---\n\n## Table of Contents\n\n1. [Problem Statement](#1-problem-statement)\n2. [Prior Art Survey](#2-prior-art-survey)\n3.

Problem Statement\n\n### What We're Building\n\nAn \"Artifacts\" feature for Lightfield that lets users interact with the outputs of their AI agents (files on disk) alongside the trust signals (behavioral proof in traces) in a single view.\n\n### Capabilities Required\n\n1. **File state at a point in time** \u2014 Show what a file looked like at a specific commit, task boundary, or idle transition\n2. **Diff between any two states** \u2014 Compare file content across boundaries\n3. **Offline review** \u2014 Review artifacts without an active connection to the daemon or the original git repo\n4. **Trust signal linkage** \u2014 Connect each file change back to the span/trace that caused it\n5. **Coverage of non-tracked files** \u2014 Capture agent scratch work (plans, temp files, configs) that may not be in the user's git history\n\n### Design Constraints\n\n1. **Don't reinvent git** \u2014 Use git's existing content-addressable storage rather than building a parallel blob store\n2. **Don't store customer code on our servers** \u2014 Code stays in the customer's git infrastructure; we store only references\n3. **Don't interfere with the user's workflow** \u2014 Invisible to normal git commands, doesn't affect push/pull/branch/log\n4. **Minimize homebrew** \u2014 It's what we do with the capability that matters, not the plumbing\n\n---\n\n## 2. Prior Art Survey\n\n### Cursor Agent-Trace (v0.1.0)\n\nAn open specification for tracing AI-generated code attribution. Key design choices:\n\n- **Content hashes, not content** \u2014 Stores SHA hashes of file content, not the content itself. Enables attribution tracking without storing code.\n- **Storage-agnostic** \u2014 Deliberately does not prescribe storage. Traces can live in local files, git notes, databases, or other systems.\n- **Line-range attribution** \u2014 Each trace record maps code ranges (startLine/endLine) to conversations and contributors.\n- **Multi-VCS support** \u2014 Works with Git, Jujutsu, and Mercurial.\n\n**Relevance:** Our snapshot architecture is structurally compatible. We could emit agent-trace records as a byproduct of our snapshot commits.\n\n### VS Code Timeline API\n\nExtension-based provider model where extensions register `TimelineProvider` for document sets. VS Code calls all registered providers in parallel when the active editor changes.\n\n- Built-in Git extension contributes commit history per file\n- Multi-provider architecture: results merged, failures isolated\n- Point-in-time viewing via click-to-diff\n\n**Relevance:** The multi-provider pattern is a good model for Lightfield's Artifacts tab \u2014 showing agent traces alongside git history.\n\n### Agent Observability Tools\n\n| Tool | Stores Code? | Links to Git? | Approach |\n|------|-------------|---------------|----------|\n| **LangSmith/Langfuse** | Tool I/O only | No | Trace hierarchy |\n| **Datadog APM** | No | Source code integration (links to repo) | Reference-only |\n| **Sentry** | Stack trace context | Source maps (uploaded) | Content stored, encrypted |\n| **Augment Code** | Per-agent worktrees | Structural isolation | Attribution via workspace |\n| **Tabnine** | Zero retention | No | Process transiently |\n\n**Key gap:** No mainstream tool natively links OTel traces to git commits/diffs. This is whitespace that rae can fill.\n\n### Browser-Embeddable Git Tools\n\n| Tool | Type | Viability |\n|------|------|-----------|\n| **isomorphic-git** | Pure JS git for Node + browser | Viable for client-side file retrieval |\n| **wasm-git** | libgit2 compiled to WASM | Heavy, requires WebWorker |\n| **Monaco Editor** | Diff view, syntax highlighting | Excellent renderer, no git awareness |\n| **react-diff-view** | Diff rendering (already in Lightfield) | Already integrated |\n\n**Decision:** We don't need client-side git. The daemon proxies git operations; the frontend is a viewer.\n\n---\n\n## 3. Existing Infrastructure Audit\n\n### What Lightfield Already Captures\n\nThe codebase has a surprisingly rich foundation for Artifacts:\n\n| Capability | Location | Detail |\n|---|---|---|\n| **File paths per tool use** | `content_blocks.file_path` | Every Read/Write/Edit/Glob/Grep stores the target path |\n| **Before/after diffs** | `content_blocks.diff_old/new/unified` | Edit tool captures old-string \u2192 new-string |\n| **Git commits linked to spans** | `commits` + `commit_spans` tables | Hash, branch, message, insertions/deletions, parsed from Bash tool output |\n| **VCS context per session** | `span_attributes` | `vcs.ref.head.name`, `vcs.repository.url.full`, `rae.workspace.directory`, `rae.vcs.worktree` |\n| **Diff rendering** | `DiffDisplay` + `react-diff-view` | Working component in trace view |\n| **File access tracking** | Thrash detector `ResourceAccessDetector` | Sliding window of file_path fingerprints for behavioral analysis |\n| **Task lifecycle** | `tasks` + `task_spans` + `task_events` | TodoWrite/TaskCreate events with status transitions |\n| **Idle transitions** | `session_actor_transitions` | Actor state changes (user/agent/model) with timestamps |\n\n### What's Missing\n\n1. **Session-level file ledger** \u2014 No aggregation of \"all files this session touched\"\n2. **Git-level file content** \u2014 We have Edit tool string diffs, but not `git show` output or file-at-commit snapshots\n3. **Snapshot storage** \u2014 No mechanism to persist file state at boundaries\n4. **Artifacts view** \u2014 No UI tab for browsing files\n\n### Boundary Detection (Already Built)\n\nAll three boundary types emit events that the daemon already processes:\n\n| Boundary | Source | Event |\n|---|---|---|\n| **Commit** | `_commit_extractor.py` in normalizer | `commits` table insert |\n| **Task completion** | TodoWrite/TaskCreate processing | `task_events` with `event_type='task_finished'` |\n| **Idle transition** | `IdleClassifierIntegration` | `session_actor_transitions` insert |\n\nNo new detection logic is needed. Snapshot creation hooks into existing events.\n\n---\n\n## 4. Architecture Options Explored\n\n### Option A: SQLite Blob Store\n\nStore file content as compressed BLOBs in rae's SQLite database, with content-addressable deduplication via SHA-256 hashing.\n\n```sql\nCREATE TABLE file_blobs (\n    content_hash TEXT PRIMARY KEY,\n    content BLOB NOT NULL,          -- zlib-compressed\n    size_bytes INTEGER NOT NULL,\n    is_binary INTEGER NOT NULL DEFAULT 0\n);\n\nCREATE TABLE file_snapshots (\n    id INTEGER PRIMARY KEY,\n    boundary_type TEXT NOT NULL,\n    boundary_ref TEXT NOT NULL,\n    session_id INTEGER NOT NULL,\n    file_path TEXT NOT NULL,\n    content_hash TEXT NOT NULL REFERENCES file_blobs(content_hash),\n    captured_at_unix_nano INTEGER NOT NULL\n);\n```\n\n**Pros:**\n- Self-contained in existing rae.db\n- Works with existing archive/export system\n- Simple implementation\n\n**Cons:**\n- **Reinvents git's content-addressable storage**\n- Creates a separate copy of customer code (security concern in SaaS mode)\n- No delta compression across snapshots (git's packfile format handles this natively)\n- Database bloat (~700KB-2MB per session, multiplied across all sessions)\n\n**Verdict:** Rejected. Storing code blobs is both redundant (git already does this) and a liability (compliance exposure).\n\n### Option B: In-Repo Git Refs (`refs/rae/*`)\n\nStore snapshots as git commits in the user's own repository under a custom ref namespace.\n\n```\nuser-repo/.git/\n  refs/rae/\n    sessions/\n      /\n        latest          \u2192 snapshot commit\n```\n\nUsing `git hash-object -w` + `git mktree` + `git commit-tree` + `git update-ref`.\n\n**Pros:**\n- Free deduplication with tracked files (same object store)\n- Native `git diff` between user commits and snapshots\n- No additional infrastructure\n- Handles untracked/gitignored files via `hash-object`\n\n**Cons:**\n- **Visible in `git log --all`** \u2014 Git GUIs (GitKraken, SourceTree, VS Code Git Graph) show orphan commits by default\n- **`git push --mirror`** would push `refs/rae/*` to remote\n- Writes objects into user's `.git` (opinionated, may violate org policies)\n- Doesn't handle files outside any git repo (needs a separate mechanism anyway)\n\n**Empirically verified:** All 11 experiments passed. See [Section 11](#11-empirical-verification-in-repo-approach).\n\n**Verdict:** Viable and well-tested, but the opacity gap is real. Since a shadow repo is needed anyway for external files, it's cleaner to route everything through it.\n\n### Option C: Shadow Bare Repo (`~/.rae/artifacts.git`)\n\nA dedicated bare git repository that stores all snapshots, using alternates to deduplicate with user repos.\n\n```\n~/.rae/artifacts.git/              # bare repo\n  objects/\n    info/alternates                # points to user repos\n  refs/rae/\n    /\n      000, 001, ..., latest\n```\n\n**Pros:**\n- **100% opacity** \u2014 Nothing in user's `.git`, nothing in `git log --all`, nothing in git GUIs\n- **Automatic deduplication** \u2014 `hash-object -w` respects alternates (empirically verified)\n- **Self-contained exports** \u2014 `git repack -a` internalizes alternate objects\n- **Handles all file types** \u2014 Repo files, external files, temp files all stored naturally\n- **Single storage location** \u2014 One place to query, gc, archive\n\n**Cons:**\n- Alternates management (paths can go stale if repos move/delete)\n- Cross-repo `git diff` requires alternates to be active\n- One additional step: copy-on-snapshot to protect against user repo GC\n\n**Empirically verified:** All tests passed. See [Section 12](#12-empirical-verification-shadow-repo-approach).\n\n**Verdict: Recommended.** The dedup-via-alternates discovery eliminated the main advantage of in-repo refs. Shadow repo gives full opacity with equivalent performance.\n\n### Option D: Hybrid Per-Repo + Shadow (Explored, Simplified to C)\n\nOriginally proposed: per-repo refs for in-repo files, shadow repo only for external files. During analysis, we realized that since alternates provide free dedup, there's no benefit to splitting storage. Shadow-for-everything is simpler and gives better opacity.\n\n---\n\n## 5. Security and Compliance Analysis\n\n### The Core Concern\n\nLightfield ships in two modes:\n1. **Local mode** \u2014 SQLite DB on user's machine\n2. **SaaS mode** \u2014 Data on rae's servers\n\nStoring snapshots of customer source code on our servers is a major security and compliance liability.\n\n### Compliance Framework Impact\n\n| Framework | If We Store Code | If We Store Only Refs |\n|---|---|---|\n| **SOC 2** | Must demonstrate AES-256 encryption, RBAC, audit logging for code content. Expands audit scope significantly. | Minimal impact. Hashes and metadata are not sensitive data. |\n| **GDPR** | Article 17 Right to Erasure applies to any stored code. Must delete within ~1 month, from all systems including backups. | Does not apply to anonymous technical metadata (hashes, paths). |\n| **HIPAA** | If code contains PHI (test fixtures, config referencing patient DBs), full BAA and encryption requirements apply. | No PHI in hashes. |\n| **Enterprise DLP** | Source code classified as confidential IP. Storage triggers DLP alerts and procurement friction. | Hashes don't trigger DLP. Clean story for enterprise sales. |\n\n### Industry Pattern: Reference, Don't Store\n\n| Tool | Stores Code? | Pattern |\n|---|---|---|\n| Cursor agent-trace | Content hashes only | Reference-only by design |\n| Datadog APM | No \u2014 links to repos | Source code integration |\n| Tabnine | Zero cloud retention | Process transiently |\n| GitHub Copilot | No persistent storage | Ephemeral context windows |\n| Sentry | Yes (source maps) | Encrypted, with clear deletion paths |\n\nThe industry consensus is clear: store references, not content. The exceptions (Sentry) have explicit encryption and retention policies.\n\n### Git as the Security Boundary\n\nBy using git as the storage backend:\n\n1. **Code never leaves user infrastructure** \u2014 Objects live in `.git` directories on the user's machine\n2. **Access control is delegated** \u2014 Existing git permissions apply\n3. **Cryptographic integrity** \u2014 SHA-256 content addressing, tamper-evident\n4. **Deletion is user-controlled** \u2014 `git gc` or repo deletion removes code; rae only has dangling refs\n5. **SaaS sync is metadata-only** \u2014 Commit SHAs, blob SHAs, file paths, timestamps. No content.\n\n### What Lives Where\n\n| Data Type | Local Mode | SaaS Mode | Rationale |\n|---|---|---|---|\n| Commit/blob SHAs | Local DB | Sync to SaaS | Pure identifiers |\n| File paths | Local DB | Sync to SaaS | Structure, not content |\n| Line counts, sizes, language | Local DB | Sync to SaaS | Aggregate metadata |\n| Timestamps | Local DB | Sync to SaaS | Standard telemetry |\n| **File content** | Local git | **NEVER** | Core security boundary |\n| **Diffs** | Local cache | **NEVER** | Contains actual code |\n| **API keys in code** | **NEVER** | **NEVER** | Must redact before any storage |\n\n---\n\n## 6. Recommended Architecture\n\n### Storage Layout\n\n```\n~/.rae/\n\u251c\u2500\u2500 artifacts.git/                                # Bare repo, all snapshots\n\u2502   \u251c\u2500\u2500 objects/\n\u2502   \u2502   \u251c\u2500\u2500 info/alternates                       # Paths to user repos\n\u2502   \u2502   \u2514\u2500\u2500 pack/                                 # Internalized + delta-compressed objects\n\u2502   \u251c\u2500\u2500 refs/rae/\n\u2502   \u2502   \u251c\u2500\u2500 /\n\u2502   \u2502   \u2502   \u251c\u2500\u2500 000                               # First snapshot commit\n\u2502   \u2502   \u2502   \u251c\u2500\u2500 001                               # Second snapshot\n\u2502   \u2502   \u2502   \u2514\u2500\u2500 latest                            # \u2192 most recent\n\u2502   \u2502   \u2514\u2500\u2500 /\n\u2502   \u2502       \u2514\u2500\u2500 ...\n\u2502   \u2514\u2500\u2500 config                                    # gc.auto=0, core.bare=true\n\u2502\n\u2514\u2500\u2500 artifacts.db                                  # SQLite index (metadata only)\n```\n\n### Snapshot Commit Structure\n\nEach snapshot is a git commit with a tree of file blobs and a JSON commit message:\n\n```\ncommit \ntree \nparent     # Chains snapshots for session history\nauthor rae  \ncommitter rae  \n\n{\"boundary\":\"commit\",\"session_id\":\"abc123\",\"commit_sha\":\"a3b3a44e\",\"files\":15}\n```\n\nThe tree contains all files touched since the last snapshot:\n\n```\n100644 blob     src/main.py\n100644 blob     src/utils.py\n100644 blob     external/_home/.claude/plans/design.md\n```\n\nFiles outside any git repo are stored under an `external/` prefix with normalized paths.\n\n### Snapshot Workflow\n\n```python\nasync def create_snapshot(\n    session_id: str,\n    files: list[Path],\n    boundary_type: str,\n    boundary_ref: str,\n    repo_path: Path | None,\n) -> str:\n    shadow = Path.home() / \".rae/artifacts.git\"\n    env = {\"GIT_DIR\": str(shadow)}\n\n    # 1.

Git Library Selection\n\n### Comparison\n\n| Library | Async? | Dependencies | Reliability | Recommendation |\n|---|---|---|---|---|\n| **subprocess + git CLI** | Native (`asyncio.create_subprocess_exec`) | git binary (always available) | Reference implementation | **Recommended** |\n| **pygit2** (libgit2) | Sync only (`run_in_executor`) | Native library, version-pinned | Battle-tested | Viable but heavyweight |\n| **GitPython** | Sync only | git binary | **CVEs:** path traversal (CVE-2026-44243), command injection (CVE-2026-42215) | **Avoid** |\n| **dulwich** | Sync only | Pure Python | Slower, some edge case gaps | Viable for constrained envs |\n\n### Rationale for subprocess\n\n1. **Native async** \u2014 `asyncio.create_subprocess_exec()` is first-class; no thread pool overhead\n2. **Zero dependencies** \u2014 git is already installed (Claude Code requires it)\n3. **Worktree support** \u2014 Just set `cwd`; git resolves everything\n4. **Batch performance** \u2014 `git hash-object -w --stdin-paths` hashes 50 files in 28ms\n5. **Safety** \u2014 git's internal path handling is safe within repos; we add validation on top\n\n### Safety Wrapper\n\n```python\nasync def safe_git_show(shadow_git: Path, ref: str, file_path: str) -> bytes:\n    \"\"\"Retrieve file content with path validation.\"\"\"\n    normalized = Path(file_path).as_posix()\n    if normalized.startswith('/') or '..' in Path(normalized).parts:\n        raise ValueError(f\"Invalid path: {file_path}\")\n\n    proc = await asyncio.create_subprocess_exec(\n        'git', 'show', f'{ref}:{normalized}',\n        stdout=asyncio.subprocess.PIPE,\n        stderr=asyncio.subprocess.PIPE,\n        env={\"GIT_DIR\": str(shadow_git)},\n    )\n    stdout, stderr = await proc.communicate()\n\n    if proc.returncode != 0:\n        raise GitError(stderr.decode())\n    return stdout\n```\n\n---\n\n## 8. Multi-Repo and External File Handling\n\n### The Problem\n\nA single agent session can touch files across multiple storage domains:\n\n```\nSession touches:\n  \u251c\u2500\u2500 packages/rae/src/rae/core/models.py          \u2190 inside primary repo\n  \u251c\u2500\u2500 apps/lightfield-local/src/App.tsx             \u2190 same repo, different area\n  \u251c\u2500\u2500 ~/.claude/plans/2026-05-12/design.md          \u2190 outside ALL repos\n  \u251c\u2500\u2500 ~/.rae/enrichment-registry.json               \u2190 outside ALL repos\n  \u251c\u2500\u2500 /tmp/scratch-analysis.py                      \u2190 ephemeral, outside repos\n  \u2514\u2500\u2500 ../sibling-repo/shared/types.ts               \u2190 different repo entirely\n```\n\n### Solution: Single Shadow Repo + Alternates\n\nAll files \u2014 regardless of origin \u2014 are stored in `~/.rae/artifacts.git`. User repos are registered as alternates for deduplication. External files are stored directly.\n\n```\n~/.rae/artifacts.git/objects/info/alternates:\n  /Users/tripp/Code/rae-monorepo/.git/objects\n  /Users/tripp/Code/sibling-repo/.git/objects\n```\n\n### Path Normalization for External Files\n\n| Actual Path | Normalized Path in Tree |\n|---|---|\n| `~/.claude/plans/foo.md` | `external/_home/.claude/plans/foo.md` |\n| `~/.rae/config.json` | `external/_home/.rae/config.json` |\n| `/tmp/scratch.py` | `external/_tmp/scratch.py` |\n| `../sibling-repo/types.ts` | `repos/sibling-repo/types.ts` |\n\nThe `external/` prefix and `_` root markers make the origin explicit and the mapping reversible.\n\n### Multi-Repo Session Tracking\n\nWhen a session touches multiple repos, the index records all of them:\n\n```sql\nINSERT INTO artifact_sessions (session_id, repo_id, repo_path, ...)\nVALUES ('abc123', 'cb9738e0dd21', '/Users/tripp/Code/rae-monorepo', ...);\n\n-- Additional repos tracked via a join table if needed,\n-- or encoded in commit message metadata\n```\n\nThe snapshot tree for a multi-repo session contains files from all repos, organized by path. The shadow repo's alternates provide read access to all of them.\n\n### Alternates Management\n\n| Event | Action |\n|---|---|\n| New session starts | Add repo's objects dir as alternate (if not already present) |\n| Repo path changes | Detect via `git cat-file -e` failure; update alternate path |\n| Repo deleted | Log warning; internalized objects still available; new reads fail gracefully |\n| Periodic maintenance | Validate all alternate paths; remove stale entries; `repack` if needed |\n\n---\n\n## 9. Worktrees and Stacking Tools\n\n### Git Worktrees: No Additional Complexity\n\nAll worktrees share a single object store at `/.git/objects`. Verified against the rae-monorepo itself (61+ worktrees, all sharing one objects dir).\n\n| Concern | Status | Detail |\n|---|---|---|\n| Object store location | **Shared** | `git rev-parse --git-common-dir` returns main repo's `.git` from any worktree |\n| Multiple worktree sessions | **Safe** | Concurrent snapshot writes are atomic (file-level locking) |\n| Worktree removal | **Safe** | Alternate points to main repo's objects, not worktree directory |\n| Worktree-local refs | **No conflict** | `refs/worktree/` is per-worktree; our `refs/rae/` is in shadow repo |\n\n**Path resolution:** From any worktree or main repo:\n```bash\nobjects_dir=$(git -C  rev-parse --git-common-dir)/objects\n```\n\n### Graphite: No Impact\n\n- Uses **standard git branches**, not custom refs\n- Stack metadata in `.git/.graphite_metadata.db` (SQLite inside `.git`)\n- Heavy rebasing (`gt restack`) rewrites user commits, but our snapshots use our own commits in shadow.git \u2014 immune to user-side rebases\n- Fully compatible with worktrees (verified empirically)\n\n### GitHub Stacked PRs: No Impact\n\n- Private preview (April 2026), uses standard git branches\n- Stack metadata in `.git/gh-stack` (JSON, not committed)\n- No custom refs conflicting with `refs/rae/`\n\n### Worktree Snapshot Timing\n\nThe critical concern: worktrees are cleaned up after agent sessions end. The daemon must snapshot before cleanup.\n\n**Defense in depth (four layers):**\n\n| Layer | What | When | Coverage |\n|---|---|---|---|\n| 1. Edit traces | `content_blocks.diff_old/diff_new` | Every Edit tool call | All edited files (partial content) |\n| 2. Commit snapshots | `hash-object` + `commit-tree` at commit boundaries | Each commit (worktree definitely alive) | All committed files |\n| 3. Idle transition snapshot | Hook into `IdleClassifierIntegration.on_transition` | Session goes idle | Uncommitted changes |\n| 4. Parent repo fallback | Objects from worktree persist in shared `.git/objects` | After worktree removal, before gc | Committed objects |\n\n**Key finding:** Claude Code uses `git worktree remove` (not `rm -rf`), which refuses to delete dirty worktrees. Objects are written to the shared store. The race window is narrower than initially feared.\n\n**Design decision:** Snapshot on every commit (Layer 2) is the primary mechanism. The idle-transition snapshot (Layer 3) is a bonus for uncommitted state.\n\n---\n\n## 10. Stable Repository Identity\n\n### The Problem\n\nThe ref schema `refs/rae//latest` needs a way to associate sessions with repos. The repo identity must be stable across: disk moves, clones, worktrees, remote URL changes.\n\n### Recommendation: Root Commit Hash\n\n```python\ndef get_repo_id(repo_path: Path) -> str:\n    \"\"\"Stable 12-char repo identifier from root commit.\"\"\"\n    result = subprocess.run(\n        [\"git\", \"-C\", str(repo_path), \"rev-list\", \"--max-parents=0\", \"HEAD\"],\n        capture_output=True, text=True,\n    )\n    roots = sorted(result.stdout.strip().split(\"\\n\"))\n    root = roots[0]  # Lexicographic sort for multi-root repos\n    return hashlib.sha256(root.encode()).hexdigest()[:12]\n```\n\n| Property | Root Commit Hash | Remote URL | Path | Generated UUID |\n|---|---|---|---|---|\n| Survives disk move | Yes | Yes | **No** | Yes |\n| Survives clone | Yes | Yes | **No** | **No** |\n| Same across worktrees | Yes | Yes | **No** | **No** |\n| Works offline | Yes | **No** (no remote) | Yes | Yes |\n| Works without commits | **No** | Depends | Yes | Yes |\n\n**Fallback chain:**\n1. Root commit SHA \u2192 sha256[:12] (99%+ of repos)\n2. Normalized remote URL \u2192 sha256[:12] (empty repo with remote)\n3. Generated UUID in `git config rae.repoid` (no commits, no remote)\n\n**Collision resistance:** 12 hex chars = 48 bits. P(collision) at 10K repos = 0.000018%.\n\n---\n\n## 11. Empirical Verification: In-Repo Approach\n\n**Test environment:** `/tmp/rae-git-snapshot-test-1778616662`\n\n### Experiment 1: Basic Snapshot Creation \u2014 PASS\n\nCreated a git repo with tracked files, `.gitignore`, gitignored files, and an external file. Used `git hash-object -w` \u2192 `git mktree` \u2192 `git commit-tree` \u2192 `git update-ref refs/rae/sessions/test-session-1/latest`.\n\n**Results:**\n- All files (tracked, untracked, gitignored, external) successfully hashed as blobs\n- Tree created with full hierarchy\n- Commit created with JSON metadata in message\n- `git show refs/rae/sessions/test-session-1/latest` \u2014 works\n- `git log` \u2014 does NOT show snapshot\n- `git branch -a` \u2014 no rae branches\n- `git status` \u2014 unchanged\n\n### Experiment 2: Opaqueness to User \u2014 PARTIAL\n\n| Command | Shows Rae Commits? |\n|---|---|\n| `git log --oneline` | No |\n| `git log --all --oneline` | **Yes** |\n| `git branch -a` | No |\n| `git tag` | No |\n| `git stash list` | No |\n| `git status` | No |\n| `git diff` | No |\n| `git for-each-ref` | Yes (shows `refs/rae/*`) |\n| `git for-each-ref refs/heads/ refs/tags/` | No |\n\n**Caveat:** `git log --all` includes `refs/rae/*` commits. Mitigated by `--exclude='refs/rae/*'`, but git GUIs use `--all` by default. This was a key factor in choosing the shadow repo approach.\n\n### Experiment 3: Normal Dev Flow Non-Interference \u2014 PASS\n\nTested all standard git operations. Snapshot ref and objects survived every one:\n\n- Modify/stage/commit: Unaffected\n- Branch create/switch: Persists\n- Rebase: Survives\n- `git gc`: Survives\n- `git gc --prune=now`: Survives\n- `git gc --aggressive`: Survives\n- `git commit --amend`: Unaffected\n- `git reset --hard HEAD~1`: Unaffected\n- Cherry-pick: No interference\n\n### Experiment 4: Untracked and Gitignored Files \u2014 PASS\n\n- `git hash-object -w` stores gitignored files without tracking them\n- `git status` unchanged (files still show as ignored/untracked)\n- `git ls-files` does not list them\n- After deleting gitignored file from disk, `git cat-file -p ` still retrieves content\n\n### Experiment 5: External Files (Outside Repo) \u2014 PASS\n\n- Hashed `/tmp/rae-external-file.txt` from within the repo\n- Blob stored in `.git/objects`\n- Included in snapshot tree under `external/` prefix\n- Deleted original from `/tmp`\n- `git show refs/rae/.../latest:external/rae-external-file.txt` \u2014 still works\n\n### Experiment 6: Snapshot Chaining \u2014 PASS\n\nCreated 3 chained snapshots (each with `parent` pointing to previous):\n\n- `git log refs/rae/sessions/test-session-1/latest` shows full history\n- `git diff snapshot1..snapshot3 --stat` shows cumulative changes\n- `git diff-tree --no-commit-id --name-only -r ` lists changed files\n\n### Experiment 7: Worktree Behavior \u2014 PASS\n\n- Created worktree, made snapshot from it\n- Ref visible from main repo\n- Objects in main repo's `.git/objects` (shared store)\n- Removed worktree \u2014 ref and all objects persist\n\n### Experiment 8: Concurrent Operations \u2014 PASS\n\nTwo parallel snapshot creations for different sessions. Both completed, `git fsck` clean.\n\n### Experiment 9: Clone Behavior \u2014 PASS\n\n| Clone Type | Includes `refs/rae/*`? |\n|---|---|\n| `git clone` | No (desired) |\n| `git clone --mirror` | Yes |\n| `git fetch origin refs/rae/*:refs/rae/*` | Yes (explicit transfer) |\n\n### Experiment 10: Cleanup \u2014 PASS\n\n- `git update-ref -d refs/rae/sessions/concurrent-1/latest`\n- `git gc --prune=now`\n- Objects properly reclaimed\n- Other refs unaffected\n\n### Experiment 11: Size Impact \u2014 PASS\n\n| State | .git Size |\n|---|---|\n| Baseline | 144KB |\n| After 50 snapshots x 20 files (loose) | 4.6MB |\n| After `git gc` (packed) | 296KB |\n\n**~8KB per snapshot after packing.** Delta compression across similar tree structures is extremely effective.\n\n---\n\n## 12. Empirical Verification: Shadow Repo Approach\n\n**Test environment:** `/tmp/rae-shadow-repo-test-1778618092`\n\n### Test 1-2: Alternates Read Access \u2014 PASS\n\nShadow bare repo successfully reads all objects from user repo via alternates:\n- Commits: `git cat-file -p ` \u2014 works\n- Blobs: `git cat-file -p ` \u2014 works\n- Trees: `git cat-file -p ` \u2014 works\n\n### Test 3: Deduplication on Write \u2014 PASS (Surprising)\n\n**Key finding:** `git hash-object -w` respects alternates for deduplication.\n\nWhen content already exists via alternate:\n- Returns same SHA\n- Does NOT create duplicate object in shadow.git\n- Object exists only in user repo's objects dir\n\nWhen content is new (not in any alternate):\n- Creates object in shadow.git\n- Returns new SHA\n\n**This was the finding that made shadow-repo-for-everything viable without dedup loss.**\n\n### Test 4: Snapshot Commits Referencing Alternate Objects \u2014 PASS\n\nCreated tree in shadow.git using blob SHAs from user repo. Created commit. `git show :` works via alternates.\n\n### Test 5: Cross-Repo Diff \u2014 PASS\n\n`git diff-tree -p  ` works when alternates are configured. Git resolves both trees transparently.\n\n### Test 6: Alternate Removal and Restoration \u2014 PASS\n\n- Remove alternate \u2192 user objects inaccessible (expected)\n- Shadow-only objects still work\n- Restore alternate \u2192 access restored immediately\n\n### Test 7: `git repack -a` Internalization \u2014 PASS (Critical for Archival)\n\nAfter `git repack -a -d`:\n- Objects from alternates are copied into shadow.git's packfiles\n- Removing alternate afterward \u2014 objects STILL accessible\n- Shadow repo becomes self-contained\n\n**This is the archival mechanism.** `repack` + `git bundle create` produces a fully portable export.\n\n### Test 8: Multiple Alternates \u2014 PASS\n\nTwo user repos as alternates. Created snapshot tree referencing blobs from both. Cross-repo diff works.\n\n### Test 9: Full Workflow with GIT_DIR \u2014 PASS\n\nComplete snapshot workflow using only `GIT_DIR=shadow.git` environment variable. User's `.git` never touched.\n\n### Test 10: Batch Performance \u2014 PASS\n\n| Method | Time (50 files) | Speedup |\n|---|---|---|\n| Individual `hash-object` calls | 485ms | baseline |\n| Batch `--stdin-paths` | 28ms | **17x faster** |\n\nAlternate resolution adds no measurable overhead.\n\n### Test 11: Ref Namespacing \u2014 PASS\n\nHierarchical refs (`refs/rae//`) work. `git for-each-ref` supports path-based filtering and glob patterns.\n\n### Test 12: Worktree Objects via Alternates \u2014 PASS\n\nObjects created in worktrees are accessible via alternate to main repo (shared object store).\n\n### Test 13: GC with Alternates \u2014 PASS\n\n`git gc` works correctly. Warning about bitmap writing is benign. Shadow-only objects packed normally. Alternate objects remain accessible.\n\n### Test 14: Concurrent Writes \u2014 PASS\n\n5 parallel writers creating 100 refs total. Zero corruption. `git fsck --full` clean.\n\n### Test 15: Size \u2014 PASS\n\n100 snapshots across 3 repos, 20 files each: **60KB packed**. Comparable to in-repo (56KB).\n\n---\n\n## 13. Durability Analysis\n\n### Durability Matrix\n\n| Scenario | Refs Survive? | Objects Survive? | Risk Level |\n|---|---|---|---|\n| `git rebase` / `rebase -i` (user's repo) | N/A (refs in shadow) | Yes (internalized) | Safe |\n| `git push --force` (user's repo) | N/A | Yes | Safe |\n| `git gc` / `gc --aggressive` (user's repo) | N/A | Yes (copy-on-snapshot) | Safe |\n| `git gc` (shadow repo) | Yes | Yes (reachable from refs) | Safe |\n| `git fetch --prune` | N/A | Yes | Safe |\n| `git worktree remove` | Yes | Yes (shared object store) | Safe |\n| `rm -rf ` | Yes | Yes | Safe |\n| Concurrent sessions | Yes (atomic updates) | Yes | Safe |\n| Shallow clone | N/A | Yes | Safe |\n| `git filter-branch --all` (user's repo) | N/A | Yes (copy-on-snapshot) | Safe |\n| User repo deleted | Yes (in shadow) | **Depends** on copy-on-snapshot | Low (mitigated) |\n| Shadow repo deleted | **No** | **No** | High (user data loss) |\n| Shadow repo GC prunes unreferenced objects | Refs protect | Yes | Safe |\n\n### The Copy-on-Snapshot Requirement\n\nWithout copy-on-snapshot, objects accessed only via alternates can be pruned by the user repo's gc. This was empirically confirmed: aggressive GC in user repo made shadow.git unable to access alternate-dependent objects.\n\n**Mitigation:** After creating each snapshot commit, copy its reachable objects into shadow.git's own storage. This makes the snapshot self-contained. Alternates then serve only as a live-read optimization, not a durability mechanism.\n\n### Backup Considerations\n\n`~/.rae/artifacts.git` should be included in the user's backup strategy. It's the single point of failure for all artifact data. A `git bundle create` of the entire shadow repo provides a complete portable backup.\n\n---\n\n## 14. Implementation Phasing\n\n### Phase 1: Core Snapshot Infrastructure\n\n- Shadow repo init (`~/.rae/artifacts.git`)\n- `GitClient` wrapper (subprocess-based, async)\n- `SnapshotService` with async queue\n- Commit-boundary snapshots (hook into existing `commit_extractor`)\n- SQLite index (`~/.rae/artifacts.db`)\n- Basic API: list snapshots, get file content\n\n### Phase 2: Full Boundary Support + External Files\n\n- Task-boundary snapshots (hook into task event extraction)\n- Idle-boundary snapshots (hook into `IdleClassifierIntegration.on_transition`)\n- External file support (path normalization, direct storage in shadow repo)\n- Alternates management (add, validate, remove stale)\n\n### Phase 3: API + Frontend\n\n- Diff computation API (between any two snapshots)\n- Capability discovery endpoint (is git available for this session?)\n- Artifacts tab in Lightfield (file tree + timeline + diff viewer)\n- Span-to-file linking (bidirectional navigation between trace and artifacts)\n\n### Phase 4: Multi-Repo + Lifecycle\n\n- Multi-repo session tracking\n- Merged view reconstruction\n- `rae artifacts gc` command\n- `rae artifacts export` (session \u2192 git bundle)\n- Retention policies tied to session lifecycle\n- Agent-trace format export (Cursor compatibility)\n\n---\n\n## 15. Open Questions\n\n1. **Snapshot granularity at non-commit boundaries:** For task and idle boundaries, which files to snapshot? All files touched since last snapshot? Or only files with unsaved changes?\n\n2. **Large binary files:** Should images, PDFs, compiled artifacts be included in snapshots? Recommendation: exclude by default, opt-in via config, with a size cap.\n\n3. **Sensitive file filtering:** Should we honor `.gitignore` by default for what to snapshot? Or snapshot everything the agent touches (since gitignored files like plans are often the most interesting artifacts)?\n\n4. **Agent-trace emission:** Should we emit Cursor-compatible agent-trace records as a byproduct? If so, at what boundary?\n\n5. **Retention lifecycle:** Should snapshot retention mirror session retention? Or should snapshots have their own TTL?\n\n6. **Shadow repo backup:** Should the daemon warn users if `~/.rae/artifacts.git` is not backed up? Or is this out of scope?\n\n---\n\n## Appendix A: Key File Paths in Codebase\n\n### Backend (Python) \u2014 Relevant to Implementation\n\n| File | Relevance |\n|---|---|\n| `packages/rae/src/rae/db/models/core.py` | ContentBlockModel with `file_path`, `diff_old/new` |\n| `packages/rae/src/rae/db/models/commits.py` | CommitModel, CommitSpanModel |\n| `packages/rae/src/rae/db/models/tasks.py` | TaskModel, TaskSpanModel, task events |\n| `packages/rae/src/rae/db/models/idle.py` | Session actor transitions |\n| `packages/rae/src/rae/integrations/claude_code/_commit_extractor.py` | Git commit parsing from Bash output |\n| `packages/rae/src/rae/integrations/claude_code/_work_context.py` | VCS metadata extraction |\n| `packages/rae/src/rae/lightfield/enricher/integration.py` | EnricherIntegration pattern |\n| `packages/rae/src/rae/lightfield/idle/integration.py` | IdleClassifierIntegration with `on_transition` |\n| `packages/rae/src/rae/lightfield/server/routes.py` | Litestar API endpoints |\n| `packages/rae/src/rae/core/archive/` | Archive layer system (for export) |\n\n### Frontend (TypeScript) \u2014 Relevant to Artifacts Tab\n\n| File | Relevance |\n|---|---|\n| `apps/lightfield-local/app/types.ts` | TypeScript interfaces |\n| `apps/lightfield-local/app/routes/sessions/$sessionId/trace.tsx` | Existing trace view (model for Artifacts tab) |\n| `apps/lightfield-local/app/components/trace/renderers/diff-display.tsx` | Existing diff rendering |\n| `apps/lightfield-local/app/components/content-blocks/DiffViewer.tsx` | Existing diff component |\n\n## Appendix B: Research Sources\n\n### Specifications\n- [Cursor agent-trace spec (v0.1.0)](https://github.com/cursor/agent-trace)\n- [Agent-trace website](https://agent-trace.dev/)\n\n### Tools and Libraries\n- [isomorphic-git](https://isomorphic-git.org/)\n- [wasm-git](https://github.com/petersalomonsen/wasm-git)\n- [Monaco Editor IDiffEditorOptions](https://microsoft.github.io/monaco-editor/typedoc/interfaces/editor_editor_api.editor.IDiffEditorOptions.html)\n\n### Security and Compliance\n- [SOC 2 Compliance - Sprinto](https://sprinto.com/blog/soc-2-requirements/)\n- [GDPR Right to Erasure - Article 17](https://gdpr-info.eu/art-17-gdpr/)\n- [Tabnine zero-knowledge architecture](https://www.tabnine.com/)\n- [Datadog Sensitive Data Scanner](https://docs.datadoghq.com/security/sensitive_data_scanner/)\n\n### Agent Observability\n- [Augment Code observability guide](https://www.augmentcode.com/guides/agent-observability-for-ai-coding)\n- [AgentPrism (Evil Martians)](https://evilmartians.com/chronicles/debug-ai-fast-agent-prism-open-source-library-visualize-agent-traces)\n- [Replay MCP](https://www.replay.io/)\n\n### Git Internals\n- [Git Internals - Git Objects](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Internals-Git-Objects)\n- [Git Hash Function Transition](https://git-scm.com/docs/hash-function-transition)\n- [VS Code Timeline API PR #89262](https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/pull/89262)\n", "creation_timestamp": "2026-05-12T21:03:25.000000Z"}]}
