Three pieces of the multi-bucket federation made real:
1. Catalog migration (POST /catalog/migrate-buckets)
- One-shot normalizer for ObjectRef.bucket field
- Empty -> "primary"; legacy "data"/"local" -> "primary"
- Idempotent; re-running on canonical state is no-op
- Ran on existing catalog: 12 refs renamed from "data", 2 already
"primary", all 14 now canonical
2. X-Lakehouse-Bucket header middleware on ingest
- resolve_bucket() helper extracts header, returns
(bucket_name, store) or 404 with valid bucket list
- ingest_file and ingest_db_stream now route writes per-request
- Defaults to "primary" when header absent
- pipeline::ingest_file_to_bucket records the actual bucket on the
ObjectRef so catalog stays the source of truth for "where does this
data live"
- Verified: ingest with X-Lakehouse-Bucket: testing lands in
data/_testing/, ingest without header lands in data/, bad header
returns 404 with hint
3. queryd registers every bucket with DataFusion
- QueryEngine now holds Arc<BucketRegistry> instead of single store
- build_context iterates all buckets, registers each as a separate
ObjectStore under URL scheme "lakehouse-{bucket}://"
- ListingTable URLs include the per-object bucket scheme so
DataFusion routes scans automatically based on ObjectRef.bucket
- Profile bucket names like "profile:user" sanitized to
"lakehouse-profile-user" since URL host segments can't contain ":"
- Tolerant of duplicate manifest entries (pre-existing
pipeline::ingest_file behavior creates a fresh dataset id per
ingest); duplicates skipped with debug log
- Backward compat: legacy "lakehouse://data/" URL still registered
pointing at primary
Success gate: cross-bucket CROSS JOIN
SELECT p.name, p.role, a.species
FROM people_test p (bucket: testing)
CROSS JOIN animals a (bucket: primary)
LIMIT 5
returns rows correctly. DataFusion routed each scan to its bucket's
ObjectStore based on the URL scheme.
No regressions: SELECT COUNT(*) FROM candidates still returns 100000
from the primary bucket.
Deferred to Phase 17:
- POST /profile/{user}/activate (HNSW hot-load on profile switch)
- vectord storage paths becoming bucket-scoped (trial journals,
eval sets per-profile)

Implements the llms3.com-inspired pattern: embeddings refresh
asynchronously, decoupled from transactional row writes. New rows arrive,
ingest marks the vector index stale, a later refresh embeds only the
delta (doc_ids not already in the index).
Schema additions (DatasetManifest):
- last_embedded_at: Option<DateTime> - when the index was last refreshed
- embedding_stale_since: Option<DateTime> - set when data written, cleared on refresh
- embedding_refresh_policy: Option<RefreshPolicy> - Manual | OnAppend | Scheduled
Ingest paths (pipeline::ingest_file + pg_stream) call
registry.mark_embeddings_stale after writing. No-op if the dataset has
never been embedded — stale semantics only kick in once last_embedded_at
is set.
Refresh pipeline (vectord::refresh::refresh_index):
- Reads the dataset Parquet, extracts (doc_id, text) pairs
- Accepts Utf8 / Int32 / Int64 id columns (covers both CSV and pg schemas)
- Loads existing embeddings via EmbeddingCache (empty on first-time build)
- Filters to rows whose doc_id is NOT in the existing set
- Chunks (chunker::chunk_column), embeds via Ollama (batches of 32),
writes combined index, clears stale flag
Endpoints:
- POST /vectors/refresh/{dataset_name} - body {index_name, id_column,
text_column, chunk_size?, overlap?}
- GET /vectors/stale - lists datasets whose embedding_stale_since is set
End-to-end verified on threat_intel (knowledge_base.threat_intel):
- Initial refresh: 20 rows -> 20 chunks -> embedded in 2.1s,
last_embedded_at set
- Idempotent second refresh: 0 new docs -> 1.8ms (pure delta check)
- Re-ingest to 54 rows: mark_embeddings_stale fires -> stale_since set
- /vectors/stale surfaces threat_intel with timestamps + policy
- Delta refresh: 34 new docs embedded in 970ms (6x faster than full
re-embed); stale_cleared = true
Not in MVP scope:
- UPDATE semantics (same doc_id, different content) - would need
per-row content hashing
- OnAppend policy auto-trigger - just declares intent; actual scheduler
deferred
- Scheduler runtime - the Scheduled(cron) variant declares the intent so
operators can see which datasets expect what, but the cron itself is
separate
Per ADR-019: when a profile switches to vector_backend=Lance, this
refresh path benefits — Lance's native append replaces our "read all +
rewrite" Parquet rebuild pattern. Current MVP works well enough at
~500-5K rows to validate the architecture; Lance unblocks the 5M+ case.

- DatasetManifest expanded: description, owner, sensitivity, columns,
lineage, freshness contract, tags, row_count
- All new fields use #[serde(default)] for backward compatibility
- PII auto-detection: scans column names for email, phone, SSN, salary,
address, DOB, medical terms — flags as PII/PHI/Financial
- Column-level metadata: name, type, sensitivity, is_pii flag
- Lineage tracking: source_system, source_file, ingest_job, timestamp
- Ingest pipeline auto-populates: PII scan, column meta, lineage, row count
- PATCH /catalog/datasets/by-name/{name}/metadata — update metadata
- Catalog responses now include all rich fields
- 25 unit tests passing (5 new PII detection tests)
Per ADR-013: datasets without metadata become mystery files.
This makes every ingested file self-describing from day one.
