Entries for unreleased work are not written here directly. Each issue drops a fragment in changelog.d/; the fragments are assembled into a version section at release. See that README for the format and for when a change warrants an entry at all.

[0.1.0] 2026-08-22

First release: the persistence-first execution loop for the statifier statechart engine - load a persisted position, step it, execute the effects, persist - packaged as a storage-adapter behaviour with an identity guard, an in-memory reference adapter, a run lifecycle, and an Ecto/Postgres layer, all covered by one conformance suite downstream adapters inherit.

Added

  • StatifierPersistence.Storage.Adapter, the storage contract, including run records: insert_run/2, fetch_run/2, and update_run/2 callbacks with run_record/run_status types and the :run_exists / :run_not_found error arms; StatifierPersistence.Storage.InMemory is the reference implementation.
  • Guarded run access on the facade: StatifierPersistence.Storage.insert_run/5, update_run/5, fetch_run/2, and load_run_position/3 (identity-guarded, with the :run_position_missing arm for a run persisted without a position).
  • Run-record conformance tests in StatifierPersistence.Testing.StorageConformance, so downstream adapters inherit the same contract checks.
  • The run lifecycle as a library: StatifierPersistence.Runs.create/4 and step/5 drive the load -> re-stamp -> step -> execute -> persist loop over durable run records, handing effects to a host-supplied StatifierPersistence.Executor (behaviour or arity-2 fun) and returning the host-facing StatifierPersistence.Run struct; events to a terminal run come back as {:discarded, run}.
  • Failure semantics on the loop: executor failures on actionable effects re-enter the chart as error.communication events (single wave per step, observational failures discarded); effect execution is at-least-once, with a failed persist re-driving the same event and re-emitting the same effects under identical deterministic keys; budget exhaustion persists a :failed run (position untouched) and returns {:error, {:budget_exhausted, payload}}.
  • StatifierPersistence.Runs.fail/4, the host-driven abandonment: marks an active run :failed with a reason, leaves the stored position untouched, and discards on a terminal run - backed by the status-only writer StatifierPersistence.Storage.update_run_status/4.
  • Pluggable per-run serialization: the StatifierPersistence.Serialization behaviour (with_run/3), selected per lifecycle call with serialization: {module, config} on Runs.create/4, step/5, and fail/4. The default strategy, StatifierPersistence.Serialization.AdapterLock, delegates to the optional adapter callback StatifierPersistence.Storage.Adapter.lock_run/3 (implemented by InMemory, conformance-tested when exported) and refuses with {:error, {:serialization, :not_supported}} when the adapter does not export it.
  • use StatifierPersistence.Ecto: compile-time configuration on the host's module (repo:, key:, table_prefix:, tables:, prefix:) that defines Chart, Position, and Run schema modules and exposes the resolved config via __statifier_persistence__/1. Requires the optional ecto_sql dependency.
  • StatifierPersistence.Ecto.KeyGenerator: the behaviour a surrogate-key scheme implements, with :uxid (default), :uuid (UUIDv7), :bigserial, and {module, opts} resolved through resolve/1.
  • StatifierPersistence.Ecto.Migrations: the versioned migrations helper (up/1, down/1, taking for: HostModule or the same literal options use takes) that creates the charts/positions/runs tables from the same resolved config the schemas use.
  • StatifierPersistence.Storage.Ecto: the Postgres storage adapter over the schemas a host generates with use StatifierPersistence.Ecto (Storage.new(Storage.Ecto, persistence: MyApp.Persistence)). Passes the same conformance suite as the in-memory reference adapter; engine identities stored verbatim; :run_exists enforced atomically by the unique index.
  • Storage.Ecto.isolate/1: with sandbox: true, wraps each test in its own Ecto.Adapters.SQL.Sandbox checkout - the hook host test suites (and this package's conformance suite) isolate through.
  • Storage.Ecto.lock_run/3: per-run mutual exclusion as a transaction-scoped pg_advisory_xact_lock plus a SELECT ... FOR UPDATE row lock (ADR-0004 as amended), consumed by Serialization.AdapterLock.
  • uxid is a required dependency (the default key scheme works out of the box); ecto_sql is optional and the package compiles without it.
