feat(api): make object PUT retry-safe with Idempotency-Key - #835
Conversation
Add optional Idempotency-Key support to object upload. An identical retry replays the original 201 instead of writing a duplicate object or hitting the 409 key_exists a naive retry gets on a strict key; a changed request returns 409 idempotency_key_reused. Because R2 is not transactional with D1, this claims the key, runs putObject, then completes in three owner_nonce-gated statements (not one batch), with a short pending TTL distinct from the 24h completed retention so a crash between the R2 write and completion never strands retries for a day. A key_exists whose stored object matches the request's content hash is reconciled to the original response (reconcileExistingUpload) rather than re-run, closing the crash window without a ledger or reaper. Replay body is plain JSON (no secret to protect). Client put() gains an optional idempotencyKey; a bare PUT is no longer auto-retried (only keyed PUT/POST are), since bare f/<id> keys re-govern per attempt and were never safely retriable. Reuses idempotency_requests + its retention sweep; no migration. Refs #829

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe PR adds optional idempotency keys to upload PUT requests. The API fingerprints requests, stores successful responses, reconciles interrupted uploads, and reports replay or conflict results. The client forwards the key and limits retries to idempotent requests. ChangesUpload idempotency
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The keyed PUT flow can return a successful 201 after a crash or retry even when the upload’s queryable metadata was not persisted, so clients may see an apparently successful upload with incomplete metadata. This should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge; smaller follow-ups cover empty-header handling and claim-loss diagnostics. Poem

…ncile Review pass over the retry-safe PUT change: - Correctness (CodeRabbit): a crash between the R2 write and the D1 metadata write left the object without its queryable metadata; the old reconcile read that state back and reported 201 with the caller's X-Uploads-Meta-* silently dropped. reconcileInterruptedUpload now re-drives putObject with replace when the stored content hash matches, converging metadata/content-hash/poster through the normal write path. Cost is the already-accepted one-off upload-ledger over-count on the rare recovery path. - Drop the post-claim ownership SELECT: the claim upsert's own meta.changes already says whether we won, the signal gallery/token read off their batch. - Extract the byte-identical claim INSERT and replay-lookup SELECT into idempotency-core (buildClaimStatement/buildReplayLookup); gallery, token, and upload now share them instead of a 3-way copy. - Thread the request's precomputed content hash into putObject so an idempotent PUT no longer hashes the body twice. - Replace the synthetic settled-row fallback with an explicit in-progress throw. - Log a 0-row completion (stolen-claim observability). - Docs: shorter sentences, document idempotency_request_in_progress/Retry-After.

In plain terms
Uploading a file is a one-shot: the API writes the bytes, then records usage and
metadata. If the response is lost to a network blip after the bytes land, a
naive retry either writes a duplicate object (bare
f/<id>keys get a new ideach attempt) or gets a confusing
409 key_existson a fixed key. This makesobject
PUTretry-safe: send anIdempotency-Keyand an identical retry replaysthe original
201— same object, same response — instead of duplicating orerroring.
This is the uploads block of #829; galleries (#832) and token minting (#834)
shipped earlier and this reuses their machinery.

keyed
PUT/POSTis. Baref/<id>uploads re-govern to a new key perattempt, so the old blanket PUT-retry could silently create duplicates; this
is Improve the public API contract, retry safety, and scalability #829's intended correction, not a regression. Wiring the CLI to supply a
key for retryable uploads is a sensible follow-up, not in this PR.
How to try it
