The 33 descriptions (~16k chars, ~19k with paths) overran Codex's skill-list budget (2% of the context window, or 8,000 chars when unknown), and a review found most bodies stale: paths from before the commons/commonsUI moves, the deleted legacy desktop app, a callback signer API that no longer exists, and example APIs that were never in the tree. Kept, rewritten and checked against the code (every path, class and command): account-state (+feeds), amy-expert, android-expert, auth-signers, compose-expert (+API style, Navigation 3 back stacks), desktop-expert (+run/package), event-store-semantics (+NIP-50 search), find-missing- translations, kotlin-coroutines (+structured concurrency, flow modeling), kotlin-multiplatform (+Gradle, composable extraction), ngit-pr, nip85-trusted-assertions, nostr-expert (+NIP lookup, generated NIP catalog), relay-client. Dropped: textbook Compose/Kotlin technique skills, kotlin-expert, kotlin-types-value-class, gradle-expert, quartz-integration (external-facing; see the Quartz docs commit), find-non-lambda-logs (audit finished; the rule is now in AGENTS.md Kotlin Style), and the /nip, /desktop-run, /extract commands. The skill list is now ~4k chars. Also drops .claude/core-skills-plan.md (stale history) and repoints SearchableEvent's KDoc to event-store-semantics.

# LocalCache: the in-memory event store
|
|
|
|
`commons/src/commonMain/kotlin/com/vitorpamplona/amethyst/commons/model/cache/`:
|
|
|
|
- `LocalCache.kt` — `object LocalCache : EventCache()`, the process-wide instance both app modules use.
|
|
- `EventCache.kt` — all the logic (`open class EventCache : ILocalCache, ICacheProvider, Dao`).
|
|
It is a class so a test can build a cache of its own instead of sharing the singleton.
|
|
|
|
## Structures (fields of `EventCache`)
|
|
|
|
```kotlin
|
|
val users = LargeSoftCache<HexKey, User>()
|
|
val notes = LargeSoftCache<HexKey, Note>()
|
|
val addressables = LargeSoftCache<Address, AddressableNote>()
|
|
|
|
val chatroomList = LargeCache<HexKey, ChatroomList>()
|
|
val publicChatChannels = LargeCache<HexKey, PublicChatChannel>()
|
|
val liveChatChannels = LargeCache<Address, LiveActivitiesChannel>()
|
|
// … ephemeralChannels, geohashChannels, relayGroupChannels, concordChannels
|
|
val deletionIndex = DeletionIndex()
|
|
val observables = FilterIndex<Observable>()
|
|
val pruner = CachePruner(this)
|
|
val search = CacheSearch(this)
|
|
val live: LocalCacheFlow = LocalCacheFlow()
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`LargeSoftCache` (`LargeSoftCache.kt`) holds **weak references** (a `ConcurrentSkipListMap` of weak
|
|
refs on JVM/Android). A `Note` or `User` nobody holds strongly can be collected, which is why every
|
|
account state object keeps its note in a field. Channel maps are plain `LargeCache` (quartz `utils/cache/LargeCache.kt`; see
|
|
`nostr-expert`).
|
|
|
|
## Insertion path
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
relay EVENT
|
|
└─ CacheClientConnector (commons/src/jvmAndroid/.../relayClient/) → cache.justConsume(event, relay, false)
|
|
├─ already deleted? → re-send the deletion to that relay, drop the event
|
|
├─ addressable and we hold a newer version? → re-send ours to that relay
|
|
└─ justConsumeAndUpdateIndexes
|
|
├─ getOrCreateAddressableNote(address) / getOrCreateNote(id)
|
|
├─ justConsumeInnerInner(event, …) ← per-class `when`: a typed consume(...) overload,
|
|
│ consumeBaseReplaceable, … ; unlisted class → rejected
|
|
└─ if new: hint / mint / gatherer indexes
|
|
consume(...) → refreshNewNoteObservers(note): matching `observables`, then live.newNote(note)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Locally signed events enter through `justConsumeMyOwnEvent(event)`; embedded events through
|
|
`consumeEmbedded(event)`.
|
|
|
|
## Lookups
|
|
|
|
| Need | Call |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
| note by id or address string | `getOrCreateNote(hex)`, `getNoteIfExists(hex)`, `checkGetOrCreateNote(hex)` (null for bad input) |
|
|
| addressable | `getOrCreateAddressableNote(address)`, `getAddressableNoteIfExists(address)` |
|
|
| user | `getOrCreateUser(pubkey)`, `getUserIfExists(pubkey)`, `checkGetOrCreateUser(key)` |
|
|
| live filter results | `observeNotes(filter: Filter): Flow<List<Note>>` |
|
|
| text search | `search` (`CacheSearch.kt`) |
|
|
|
|
`getOrCreate*` never does network I/O and returns the same wrapper for the same id while it is alive.
|
|
|
|
## Reactive consumption
|
|
|
|
- One note: `note.flow()` returns its `NoteFlowSet` (`metadata`, `replies`, `reactions`, `boosts`,
|
|
`zaps`, `reports`, `relays`, `ots`, `edits`, `labels`). `flowSet` is null until someone calls `flow()`.
|
|
- One user's profile: `user.metadata().flow`.
|
|
- Everything: `LocalCache.live.newEventBundles` / `deletedEventBundles` — `SharedFlow<Set<Note>>`
|
|
batched by `BundledInsert` (1 s windows), `DROP_OLDEST` with a 100-bundle buffer. Feeds consume
|
|
it through `ICacheProvider.getEventStream()`.
|
|
|
|
## Replacement and deletion
|
|
|
|
- Regular events: first copy wins; kind-5 deletions go to `deletionIndex`, and a later copy of a
|
|
deleted event is refused (`deletionIndex.hasBeenDeleted`).
|
|
- Replaceable and addressable events: the newest `created_at` replaces `note.event` in place on the
|
|
same wrapper (addressables are keyed by `Address`). Hold the `Note`, never the `Event`.
|
|
|
|
## Pruning and memory
|
|
|
|
- `CachePruner` (`pruner`): `pruneOldMessages`, `pruneHiddenMessages`, `pruneExpiredEvents`,
|
|
`prunePastVersionsOfReplaceables`, `pruneRepliesAndReactions`, `cleanObservers` (calls
|
|
`clearFlow()` on every note).
|
|
- `MemoryTrimmingService` (`model/cache/MemoryTrimmingService.kt`) drives it; `AppModules.kt` and
|
|
`DesktopAppModules.kt` each create one.
|
|
- No TTL beyond that. A long session accumulates; bound retention in the feed (`limit()`), not by
|
|
hoping the cache drops things.
|
|
|
|
## Gotchas
|
|
|
|
- **A new event class must be routed in `justConsumeInnerInner`.** `EventFactory` parsing it is not
|
|
enough; an unlisted class hits the `else` branch and is rejected.
|
|
- **Observers fire inside consume.** `refreshNewNoteObservers` runs as part of `consume(...)`, so
|
|
state the cache derives from that event (channels and similar) may not be filled in yet when a
|
|
collector wakes. Re-read in the collector.
|
|
- **Full scans are expensive.** `notes.filterIntoSet { … }` over the whole cache is what a feed's
|
|
`feed()` does on refresh; never do it per frame or in composition.
|
|
- **Processes**: `LocalCache` lives only in the Android main process — see AGENTS.md *Android Runtime
|
|
Processes*.
