docs: document module database access
Add ADR 0016 recording the accepted module database access design (ModuleDatabase, the frozen
ModuleRuntimeServices boundary, one pool/one facade/one services-object identity, explicit
migrations, and the trust model), with narrow cross-reference corrections to ADR 0006 and ADR 0015
where their original text is now inaccurate. Sweep docs/development/api.md,
docs/development/authorization.md, docs/module-development/README.md, docs/development/testing.md,
and docs/development/identity.md for the new database boundary and remaining Phase 4C staleness;
correct the stale "Phase 4C is next" roadmap paragraph in platform-architecture.md and the matching
gap in README's current-status narrative. Extend the module template with a permissioned
GET /records route reading through context.services.database, using the canonical
createModuleTable helper, with matching template tests.

# Testing
Ekklesia separates fast code-level evidence from live infrastructure evidence.
## Unit and repository verification
```bash
pnpm test
pnpm verify
```
These commands exercise package tests, repository boundaries, type checking, offline Core and
module migration discovery, identity schema drift detection, formatting, linting, and builds.
Migration-runner unit tests use a narrow database/session port to prove deterministic planning,
approval, transaction orchestration, cleanup, and sanitized errors. They do not claim to prove
PostgreSQL behavior. Identity unit tests cover branded opaque-ID contracts, principal shapes,
configuration validation (secret, base URL, and trusted-origin rules), bounded/validated
connection and operation (`query_timeout`/`statement_timeout`) database timeouts, the Core identity
runtime (explicit construction, exact schema mapping, only email/password and rate limiting
enabled, an explicit `advanced.disableCSRFCheck`/`disableOriginCheck: false` pair, an explicit
error-only sanitized logger that strips Better Auth's own message and arguments regardless of what
they contain, pinned 8–128 password-length bounds, sanitized failures, and that a database outage
during principal resolution is never silently reported as anonymous), and Core migration discovery
(deterministic ordering, the reserved `core` identity, and collision rejection) — all without a
live database. `apps/api`'s own unit tests cover its pure Hono app factory (route shapes, module
route mounting/enforcement/CORS/response sanitization, CORS allow/deny/preflight, deterministic 404
and sanitized error responses), its runtime configuration, its idempotent shutdown lifecycle
(concurrent callers share one server-close-then-module-runtime-stop-then-pool-close promise; a
module-stop failure never prevents pool cleanup; a startup failure after the pool was already
created still closes it, stopping the module runtime first if it had already started;
`SIGINT`/`SIGTERM` wiring is exercised through an injectable exit function rather than the real
`process.exit`), and that importing any of its modules — including the executable server module
without calling its exported `main` — never reads the environment, connects to PostgreSQL, imports
a module entrypoint, or starts a server. Real, working (non-throwing) module fixtures prove
production module-runtime startup/shutdown ordering and cleanup against a mocked pool/Better
Auth/server — see [Authorization](authorization.md#tests).
`pnpm verify` is intentionally Docker-free. It never plans or applies migrations against a live
database.
## Live PostgreSQL migration evidence
Docker and the Docker Compose plugin are required for the live suite:
```bash
pnpm test:migrations:integration
```
The command first builds the workspace through the repository's Turbo build graph, then starts the
repository's pinned PostgreSQL image in a unique Compose project, waits for bounded health
readiness, runs the production PostgreSQL adapter and migration services, and removes the
container, network, and volume. A build failure occurs before Docker provisioning. Each scenario
also receives a safely named disposable database. Direct host runs use a Docker-assigned random
port bound only to `127.0.0.1`; a containerized Gitea job joins the isolated Compose network and
uses the PostgreSQL service name.
The live suite proves fresh read-only planning, initial and incremental application, genuine
no-op behavior, exact applied checksums and history, edited or corrupt history rejection,
whole-batch DDL rollback, Drizzle breakpoint execution, real advisory-lock concurrency and
timeouts, lock release after failure, exact destructive approvals, and public-error sanitization.
It does not make migrations automatic during Core startup.
A dedicated set of scenarios exercises the committed Core identity migration against real
PostgreSQL: read-only planning on a fresh database, applying it and confirming exactly the four
expected `ekklesia_core_*` tables and their indexes exist, a genuine no-op on a second apply, Core
executing before a fixture module migration in one batch, previously applied module-only history
staying byte-for-byte unchanged once Core is introduced, and a later module migration's failure
rolling back cleanly without damaging the already-committed Core identity migration or leaking the
advisory lock.
A second dedicated suite (`apps/api/tests/api-http.integration.ts`, included in the same
`pnpm test:migrations:integration` run) starts the real `apps/api` HTTP server against a freshly
migrated disposable database and exercises it with real HTTP requests: public sign-up (with no
automatic session, per `autoSignIn: false`), explicit sign-in producing a host-only
`HttpOnly`/`SameSite=Lax`/secure session cookie, `/api/v1/principal` for both the authenticated and
anonymous shapes, sign-out actually invalidating the session, a malformed or missing cookie
resolving as anonymous, duplicate sign-up creating no second identity row, two distinct accounts
producing identical principal shapes with no elevation and no owner/role/permission data at the
database level, no plaintext password ever stored, the exact 8–128 password-length boundary (7
rejected, 8 accepted, 128 accepted, 129 rejected), CORS never returning an allow-origin header for
an untrusted origin, Better Auth's handler being unreachable outside `/api/auth/*`, a database
outage during principal resolution producing a sanitized `503` rather than a false anonymous `200`,
starting the API against an unmigrated database creating no tables at all, and a clean listener/pool
shutdown.
The same suite also proves Better Auth's own origin/CSRF protection is production-equivalent under
the test runner, not just in a plain Node script: a no-cookie first authentication attempt succeeds
from a trusted browser origin and is rejected (`403`, no permissive CORS header, no leaked detail)
from an untrusted one; a cookie-bearing state-changing request (sign-out) is rejected the same way
from an untrusted origin, and the presented session remains valid afterward, proving the rejected
request never reached sign-out logic. See
[ADR 0012](../architecture/decisions/0012-identity-origin-csrf-protection-under-test.md) for why
this previously could not be reproduced reliably under Vitest (Better Auth's own default silently
skips these checks whenever `isTest()` is true, unless `advanced.disableOriginCheck` is set
explicitly) and how the fix removes that gap entirely. A further scenario forces a real identity
database failure and asserts, against actual `console.error`/`warn`/`log` output, that Better
Auth's own internal error logging — configured explicitly in `core/src/identity/runtime.ts` — never
emits a raw exception, SQL, connection detail, or the rejected request's origin.
A third dedicated suite (`apps/api/tests/module-database.integration.ts`, included in the same
`pnpm test:migrations:integration` run) proves `context.services.database` against a real,
installed test module (`core/tests/fixtures/module-database-integration/db-facade/` — never the
repository's live `modules/` directory, and invisible to normal discovery/Doctor/`modules:validate`
unless a test explicitly points discovery at it): the module's own table does not exist until its
migration is explicitly applied, and constructing the pool or facade never creates it; `start`,
`stop`, and an authorized HTTP handler all receive the identical `ModuleRuntimeServices` object,
proven by reference equality; a real authorized mutation persists and a later read observes it,
gated by the same permission/trusted-Origin enforcement every other module route uses; a real
committed transaction persists and a real rollback (a deliberate unique-constraint violation)
leaves no partial mutation; a module deliberately catching a real PostgreSQL failure returns its
own response untouched, while an uncaught one sanitizes to the existing
`MODULE_HANDLER_FAILED` boundary with no leaked SQL, error text, or path; and a `stop` hook's write
completes and is independently verifiable, through the harness's own administrative connection —
never the API's own pool — before that pool closes. See
[ADR 0016](../architecture/decisions/0016-module-database-access.md).
CI runs the same command in the dedicated `migration-smoke` job. After this change is merged, add
the following pull-request status context to `main` branch protection:
```text
CI / migration-smoke (pull_request)
```
## Safe troubleshooting
Confirm the prerequisites without printing configuration:
```bash
docker info
docker compose version
```
Then rerun `pnpm test:migrations:integration`. The harness emits fixed failure messages and does
not dump PostgreSQL logs, SQL, container inspection output, or the generated database URL. Do not
enable query logging, print the test environment, run `docker compose config` without redaction,
or paste Docker inspection output into an issue. If the Docker daemon itself stopped during
cleanup, restore it before rerunning so the harness can create a fresh uniquely named project.
