Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/develop' into feature/exclude-classified-fields

feat(index): never index PII/PHI-classified or secured fields
Secured-data spec section 15: Quick Search must never put classified values in the shared search index, snippets or results. QuickSearchFieldRules decides it in one place on QQQ 4.1.0-RC.6: isProtected is true for fields classified PII or PHI (field, else the table's classification), fields with a field security lock, sensitive fields and masked/password types. Such fields are never indexable; explicit configs drop them with a warning (never the value); a table whose primary key is protected (for example a PHI table) is not indexed at all. Record labels built from protected fields fall back, the version field is skipped when protected, and results from tables with protected fields are rebuilt from allowed values only, so documents indexed before this change cannot leak through labels or snippets. Tables with only harmless non-indexable fields (booleans, blobs) keep their labels and are not result-filtered. A canary test proves a PHI and a PII marker never reach a captured index request, result or snippet. RC.7 follow-up: also honour core ClassifiedValues.isClassified (qqq#1182) and FieldAccessHelper lock tiers (qqq#1172). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

+- Real-time indexing failures now increase the table's error count by the number of failed events. Successful basepulls and full reindexes reset the count. Counter update failures are logged without failing the source write.

 ### Added
 - Supported host status API (`api.QuickSearchStatusService.get()`), immutable status values, and `QuickSearchApi` home navigation constants (issue #50/F10). Permission-checked, bounded diagnostics refreshes share a short per-runtime cache and reuse saved validation counts. New spec-managed `GET /qqq/v1/qbit/quick-search/status` (`getQuickSearchStatus`) with committed OpenAPI fragment and strict HTTP/contract tests. RC.6 requires the default `/qbit/quick-search` prefix; `/quick-search` is not permitted by core. Existing routes and wire shapes are unchanged.
 - Record developer panel: `QuickSearchDeveloperPanelProvider` (id `quickSearch`) adds a "Quick Search" panel to the developer view of every record of an indexed table (`/app/{table}/{id}/dev` in the Next UI), for users who may read Quick Search Index. It shows the table's index row (enabled, status, record count, last basepull and full reindex, searchable fields), the latest index run, the record's indexed document compared field by field with the database (Inspect Search Document's comparison; needs `debugPermissionRules`), the record's failed index events, the Inspect Search Document and Reindex in Search actions the user may run, and links to the admin app and the index row. An unreachable OpenSearch shows a warning in the panel. Registered by `QuickSearchDeveloperPanelsMetaDataProducer`.

Config tables are audited at field level.

 ### Changed
+- Distinguish protected fields from fields that simply cannot be searched. Boolean, blob and hidden fields no longer trigger result rebuilding or erase record labels. Labels are suppressed only when their source fields are protected; unprotected hidden primary keys and timestamps remain usable.
+- Exclude PII/PHI-classified fields (including table defaults) and field-security-locked fields everywhere Quick Search indexes or displays values. Configuration rejects protected fields; code defaults drop them with one warning per table. Search and diagnostics omit protected values from older documents. Rebuild existing indexes after upgrading or changing classification metadata. Uses QQQ 4.1.0-RC.6; no dependency changes.
 - `quick_search_index`: the generic Create and Delete are off (`TABLE_INSERT`, `TABLE_DELETE`); use Add Search Index and Remove Search Index. `quick_search_searchable_table` is now a custom source over the effective tables. `quick_search_index_run` gains `cancelRequested` and `cancelRequestedBy`.
 - Hidden and `isSensitive` fields are never indexed (previously hidden and password only).
 - Record screens (record-screen audit): `quick_search_index_run` and `quick_search_failed_event` are written by the QBit only, so Create and Edit are off (Delete stays, for clearing); both get named field sections, record labels and pickers (`quick_search_run_type`, `quick_search_run_status`, `quick_search_failed_event_status`, `quick_search_failed_event_action`, and the table picker for `tableName`). The index record lists its Recent Runs (join `quick_search_index_join_quick_search_index_run`). `quick_search_validation_run.reportJson` uses a JSON code editor. The Basepull, Full Reindex and Reconcile processes run from Quick Search Index's Actions and are no longer app (nav) children; their table input is `searchTableName` (`tableName` still works for API callers, and a Quick Search table name is ignored), so running them from the table no longer limits them to `quick_search_index`. Process input steps now carry `HELP_TEXT` and `EDIT_FORM` components, so the Next UI renders their fields.

 - `quick_search_failed_event`: real-time events that could not be applied; `status` `PENDING` or `EXHAUSTED` after 10 attempts. Deletes made while a full reindex of all tables runs are also recorded here with status `AWAITING_REINDEX`: the reindex applies them to the new index after the alias swap (basepull does not replay them). While a table is `REBUILDING`, drift detection is suspended for it. Only one full reindex runs at a time: starting one while another is running fails. A full reindex shows it is running through its `FULL_REINDEX` run records, which stay `RUNNING` with `modifyDate` refreshed after every page. If it is killed mid-run (pod restart, OOM, deploy), recovery is automatic once its run records have shown no sign of life for `fullReindexStaleMinutes` (30 by default): the next basepull, or the next full reindex, marks those run records `FAILED`, returns the tables to `ACTIVE` with `lastBasepullTime` moved back to the run's start, and turns the `AWAITING_REINDEX` rows `PENDING` so basepull replays the deletes. No data is lost. A run that was only slow and is judged stopped notices before its alias swap and fails without swapping, or, after its swap, stops applying its captured deletes; basepull skips a replayed delete whose record exists again.

+Real-time error counts on Quick Search Index show failures since the last successful full reindex or basepull. Each failed event increases the count; deferred changes while indexing is paused do not. Counter updates are best effort and serialized across listeners in one JVM; concurrent application nodes can still race because QQQ has no arithmetic update API.

 ## Extending

 `IndexEventPublisher` lets a host replace the synchronous publisher with a queue. In 1.0 the SPI is experimental: `IndexEvent` carries the table, record id, action and the record snapshot, but no sequence number, so an asynchronous consumer must order INDEX and DELETE for the same record itself. `OpenSearchTransportCustomizer` customizes the HTTP transport.

+## Classified data
+
+Quick Search excludes fields classified as **PII** or **PHI**, including fields
+that inherit the table's classification. It also excludes hidden, sensitive,
+password/masked fields and every field with a `FieldSecurityLock`; a shared
+search index cannot enforce access to individual fields for each user. PUBLIC,
+CONFIDENTIAL and unclassified fields remain eligible under the usual field rules.
+
+The same rule applies to annotation and code configuration, admin field choices,
+real-time writes, basepull, rebuilds, replay, labels, snippets, analyzer copies and
+result display fields. An admin trying to add a protected field gets an error.
+Protected fields in existing or explicit code configuration are dropped, with one
+warning per table metadata lifetime; warnings never contain field values. A
+protected primary key prevents indexing the record or sending its ID for deletion.
+
+Protection is separate from search eligibility: boolean, blob, hidden and other
+unsupported fields alone do not trigger result filtering or remove record labels.
+Labels are omitted when their source fields are protected; unrelated protected
+fields do not erase safe labels. Unprotected hidden keys and timestamps can still
+provide record IDs and document versions.
+
+After upgrading, or after changing a field's classification or security metadata,
+run **Full Reindex** across all indexed tables to remove previously indexed values.
+Until then, tables containing protected fields are searched through allowed field
+values, and results are rebuilt without old combined labels or highlights.
+Diagnostic views also omit protected values and the raw response for these tables.
+This does not purge old OpenSearch backups or retained physical indexes; apply your
+host's retention policy to those copies.
+
+This release uses the APIs in QQQ **4.1.0-RC.6**. Support for the host's
+`AuditValueProtector` classification (`ClassifiedValues`, qqq#1182) and
+`FieldAccessHelper.getLockTier` (qqq#1172) is deferred until the qbit moves to RC.7.

+## Real-time error counter fix (2026-10-14)
+
+- Failed-event recording now increments the table's `realTimeErrorCount` after commit, using QQQ reads and system writes. Null counts start at zero; update failures are logged and cannot fail the source write or prevent replay.
+- QQQ has no arithmetic update API. The read-modify-write fallback is serialized across listeners in this JVM; separate application nodes can still race.
+- Successful basepull and full-reindex status updates reset the count, including the single-table reindex path. Investigation found the previous zero assignments only initialized new rows. Field help, README and Unreleased changelog now describe the reset window.
+- Regression coverage includes event counts, concurrent listeners, counter-update failure, after-commit timing, basepull reset and both full-reindex reset paths.
+- Final gate: `./mvnw.cmd -o -B verify` passed against released QQQ 4.1.0-RC.6: 476 unit tests, zero failures/errors; 41 integration tests skipped because Docker is unavailable; architecture guardrails and JaCoCo coverage gates passed. No dependency changes or offline artifact gaps. Checkstyle, PMD and SpotBugs are not configured in this Maven build.
+- No commit, push or branch creation. Second-brain save is blocked by the vault being outside writable roots; this section retains the durable handoff for later vault synchronization.

+  not protected. Searchable/snippet/display field lists still use isIndexable.
+- Labels check their configured/table source fields; unrelated protected fields
+  preserve safe labels. A copied record prevents unsafe preformatted labels from

james.maesandClaude Opus 5.5	024cda7b08	feat(index): never index PII/PHI-classified or secured fields Secured-data spec section 15: Quick Search must never put classified values in the shared search index, snippets or results. QuickSearchFieldRules decides it in one place on QQQ 4.1.0-RC.6: isProtected is true for fields classified PII or PHI (field, else the table's classification), fields with a field security lock, sensitive fields and masked/password types. Such fields are never indexable; explicit configs drop them with a warning (never the value); a table whose primary key is protected (for example a PHI table) is not indexed at all. Record labels built from protected fields fall back, the version field is skipped when protected, and results from tables with protected fields are rebuilt from allowed values only, so documents indexed before this change cannot leak through labels or snippets. Tables with only harmless non-indexable fields (booleans, blobs) keep their labels and are not result-filtered. A canary test proves a PHI and a PII marker never reach a captured index request, result or snippet. RC.7 follow-up: also honour core ClassifiedValues.isClassified (qqq#1182) and FieldAccessHelper lock tiers (qqq#1172).

james.maesandClaude Opus 5.5	1a4a29fa2b	fix(status): count real-time indexing failures realTimeErrorCount was only ever written as 0, so the status screen, diagnostics and the status API always said there were no real-time errors. When the change listener records failed events it now adds their number to the table's count (after commit, serialized in the JVM, never failing the user's write). A successful basepull or full reindex resets it; the field's help text says so. Fixes #53 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-10-14 10:42:35 -05:00
