The typed-RDF-literals refactor in coasys/ad4m#874 stores scalar model
properties as deterministic typed XSD literals rather than URL-encoded
`literal:string:` envelopes. SPARQL bindings for those properties now
return the lexical form directly \u2014 the parseLit() decode step is a
no-op that only survives by falling through on the throw path.

Removes parseLit() from every hard-coded SPARQL call site whose target
predicate is a bare @Property (`flux://body`, `flux://title`,
`flux://name`, `flux://transcript_started_at`, `flux://has_name`,
`flux://has_summary`, `flux://topic`, `flux://has_relevance`,
`flux://has_channel_name`, `flux://is_pinned`, `flux://is_conversation`)
across Channel, Conversation, ConversationSubgroup, Topic, and
SemanticRelationship.

Bindings that are already correctly handled are untouched:
- Post.image / Community.name+icon (resolveLanguage: FILE_STORAGE_LANGUAGE)
  still resolve as expression URIs via getExpression()
- Channel.pinnedConversations() SPARQL FILTER already uses
  <ad4m://fn/parse_literal> on the server side
- Channel.recentConversations() now checks r.isConv === 'true' directly

Also fixes the failing parseLit.test.ts case: ".data" extraction was
dropped from ad4m core's parseLit (see coasys/ad4m@3a96f73a) because
signed-envelope literals no longer exist for new property writes; JSON
objects returned by Literal.fromUrl() are now JSON-stringified for
display. Updated the test expectation to match.

The deprecated `packages/api/src/utils/parseLit.ts` re-export is kept
for now as a soft-deprecation shim \u2014 callers that still import it
(none in this package after this change; the flag was removed from the
grep, one comment references it) will keep working, and its test
suite documents the new behaviour.

Verified:
- packages/api pnpm test: 112 tests / 7 files green (local ad4m HEAD)
- No new TS errors; the one pre-existing PerspectiveProxy mock-shape
  error in channel-rename.test.ts is unrelated to this change.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The API now consumes typed SPARQL bindings directly with explicit fallbacks. Literal parsing is local and supports signed envelopes. Message and task resolution changed. Channel links and Flux query diagnostics were updated.

Changes

Typed bindings and diagnostics

Layer / File(s) Summary
Literal resolution contracts
packages/api/src/utils/parseLit.ts, packages/api/src/utils/parseLit.test.ts, packages/api/src/message/index.ts, views/kanban-view/src/components/Board/TaskModel.ts
Local literal parsing handles signed envelopes. Message bodies resolve as literals. Task names remove literal resolution.
Typed API value mappings
packages/api/src/channel/index.ts, packages/api/src/conversation-subgroup/index.ts, packages/api/src/conversation/index.ts, packages/api/src/topic/index.ts, packages/api/src/semantic-relationship/index.ts
API mappings read typed bindings directly for names, timestamps, relevance, booleans, and channel values.
Flux debug utility
packages/utils/src/fluxDebug.ts, packages/utils/src/index.ts
The utilities package adds cached activation, refresh support, prefixed logging, and bounded payload sanitization.
Query diagnostics
app/src/views/main/community/channel/Header.vue, views/chat-view/src/components/MessageList/MessageList.tsx, packages/api/src/channel/index.ts
Channel and message queries log state and result details. The code warns for empty results and envelope-form message bodies.
Channel link handling
app/src/utils/routeUtils.ts, app/src/utils/__tests__/routeUtils.test.ts, app/src/views/main/community/channel/view/ViewView.vue, app/src/views/main/community/modals/__tests__/createChannelLinks.test.ts
Route utilities handle falsy identifiers. View navigation accepts ad4m://obj/ links. Tests cover nested, top-level, legacy, and round-trip identifiers.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 63cfb

The PR changes literal parsing and channel-link handling, but the current version can rewrite some literal: links incorrectly and may miss replaced diagnostic results; debug output may also retain unbounded message content. These are bounded but concrete merge-readiness risks that should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging.

Comment thread packages/api/src/channel/index.ts Outdated
… envelope for Message.body

Follow-up to the typed-RDF-literals refactor in coasys/ad4m#874, which
flips the default per-property storage from signed-envelope literals to
deterministic typed XSD literals.

Pre-existing state on dev (verified against git history — commit
61ffb69 "feat: migrate packages/api models to Ad4mModel decorators"
from Feb 27 2026): every scalar @Property in packages/api was originally
declared with resolveLanguage: 'literal', but the migration stripped
those flags on the assumption they matched the ad4m default.  Combined
with ad4m's own pre-#874 default, this meant the runtime storage stayed
envelope-encoded even though the decorators looked bare.  On the new
ad4m branch the default flips, so those bare @Property fields now
resolve to deterministic typed XSD literals — which is what we want for
simple scalar properties like channel names, titles, task names, topic
names, timestamps, relevance scores, etc.

Changes
-------

Model: keep signed-envelope storage for Message.body only
- packages/api/src/message/index.ts: add resolveLanguage: 'literal' to
  the body @Property with a comment explaining why (per-message
  provenance, rich content, .data unwrap semantics preserved for
  moderation and edit-history use cases).

SPARQL call sites: drop parseLit() on typed-literal bindings, keep it
on binding.body only:
- channel/index.ts: title, taskName, transcriptStart, isConv → direct
  binding use; body → parseLit()
- conversation-subgroup/index.ts: topicNameRaw, title, taskName,
  transcriptStart, relevanceRaw → direct; body → parseLit()
- conversation/index.ts: topicNameRaw, nameRaw, summaryRaw,
  transcriptStart → direct binding use
- topic/index.ts: relevance, channelName → direct binding use
- semantic-relationship/index.ts: channelName → direct binding use

Kanban view: strip resolveLanguage: 'literal' from TaskModel so its
Task.name goes through the same deterministic-typed-literal path as the
rest of the codebase.

Test: parseLit.test.ts "extracts .data from JSON literal objects"
- Ad4m core parseLit dropped .data extraction in coasys/ad4m@3a96f73a
  because signed-envelope literals are the exception, not the norm.
  Updated the test expectation to match the new JSON-stringify contract.

Verification
------------
- pnpm --filter @coasys/flux-api test: 7 files / 112 tests green
  (against local ad4m built from refactor/drop-resolve-literal-flag,
  which branches off this PR's ad4m target)
- No new TypeScript errors (the one pre-existing PerspectiveProxy mock
  shape error in channel-rename.test.ts is unrelated)

Left untouched
--------------
- Post.image, Community.name/icon: still resolveLanguage:
  FILE_STORAGE_LANGUAGE, still resolved via getExpression()
- Channel.pinnedConversations SPARQL: already uses
  <ad4m://fn/parse_literal> server-side, correct for typed literals
- Broader Flux (packages/utils, view components, WebRTC, ProfileView):
  ~13 Literal.fromUrl(...).get() sites on generic/user data where the
  storage mode isn't fixed by our model definitions.  Out of scope for
  this CI-unblock work; separate follow-up warranted.
Nico is seeing chat messages + channel plugin tabs both disappear
silently when running Flux against the deployed AD4M from PR #874
(typed-RDF-literals branch), with no errors surfaced.  Adding
opt-in tracing to catch the failure mode, plus fixing a real bug
in my earlier commit 9d45f98 that was almost certainly the cause.

BUG FIX
-------

Commit 9d45f98 promised in its commit message to restore
parseLit(binding.body) at three SPARQL call sites after setting
resolveLanguage: 'literal' on Message.body, but the diff only landed
on packages/api/src/message/index.ts, parseLit.test.ts, and
kanban-view/TaskModel.ts — the actual channel/index.ts and
conversation-subgroup/index.ts edits were lost during the rebase +
comment-conflict shuffle on Nico's branch merge.

Result: Message.body arrives from SPARQL as a 'literal:string:*'
envelope URI (because it's stored as an envelope), but the code
assigns that raw URI directly to `text` and passes it downstream.
Depending on the renderer that means either an unreadable
literal:string:... blob in place of every message or (more likely)
messages being filtered/hidden entirely by downstream code that
expects clean text.

Restored parseLit(binding.body) in:
- Channel.allItems() (line 128) — flux://has_message branch
- Channel.unprocessedItems() (line 235) — same
- ConversationSubgroup.itemsData() (2 sites) — merge + fresh row

Other scalar fields (title, taskName, transcriptStart, channelName,
topicName, relevance) remain direct binding access — those really
are typed XSD literals per the ad4m #874 default.

DEBUG LOGGING
-------------

New shared helper packages/utils/src/fluxDebug.ts:
- isFluxDebugEnabled() — reads localStorage.flux_debug=1 OR
  VITE_FLUX_DEBUG=1 OR process.env.FLUX_DEBUG=1
- fluxDebug(scope, event, payload) — structured [flux-debug] logs,
  JSON-safe shallow-cloned payloads
- fluxDebugWarn(scope, event, payload) — for suspicious-but-not-error
  states (empty result where we expected data)
- window.__fluxDebugRefresh() — re-check the toggle from DevTools
  without a full page reload

Instrumented three call sites (all no-op in production, active only
when explicitly toggled on):

1. views/chat-view/src/components/MessageList/MessageList.tsx
   - Logs every useLiveQuery(Message, {parent: Channel}) state
     transition: entriesLength, totalCount, loading, error,
     firstEntryId, firstEntryBodyLen
   - Warns when result is empty AND no error AND no loading —
     the exact failure shape Nico is seeing

2. app/src/views/main/community/channel/Header.vue
   - Logs every useLiveQuery(App, {parent: Channel}) state — this
     is where the plugin tabs get their data
   - Warns when channel is loaded but viewCount is 0

3. packages/api/src/channel/index.ts (Channel.allItems)
   - Logs SPARQL rowCount + firstRow shape + all entry types seen
   - Warns if any binding.body is still a 'literal:*' envelope URI
     when the current storage design expects typed XSD literals
     everywhere except Message.body

To enable:
    localStorage.setItem('flux_debug', '1');   // then reload
    localStorage.removeItem('flux_debug');     // to disable

All output prefixed [flux-debug] for grep-friendliness in a captured
console dump.

Verification
------------
- packages/utils: type: module, direct src/*.ts imports \u2014 no build
  needed. New export ships immediately.
- pnpm --filter @coasys/flux-api test still needs to be re-run in
  a fresh env; changes here are additive to the pre-existing green
  suite (7 files / 112 tests as of 9d45f98).

Track query result identity, not only result count.

Both diagnostics log representative result fields, but both subscriptions only react to count changes. A completed query can replace its results with the same count, and the log then reports stale data or misses the resolved state.

Bound string values and preserve Error details.

safeClone() keeps complete primitive strings. shallowSample() converts most Error objects to {} because message and stack are not enumerable. The channel logger passes a binding row to this utility, so a large message body can enter the console, while a query error loses its diagnostic details.

The perspective from useCommunityService() is a plain PerspectiveProxy
object, not a Ref. My debug log in f9ceed0 wrote perspective.value?.uuid
which fails typecheck with:
  Property 'value' does not exist on type 'PerspectiveProxy'

Verified by looking at useLiveQuery(App, perspective, ...) 3 lines above
\u2014 uses bare perspective, no .value.

Followup: the pr-tracker-overnight cron should also monitor CI state on
watched PRs and auto-fix red where possible. Extending in next commit.
The typed-RDF-literals refactor changed instance ID generation from
literal:string:<random> to ad4m://obj/<random> (Ad4mModel constructor).
restoreChannelPrefix() unconditionally prepended literal:string:,
producing 'literal:string:ad4m://obj/...' which never matched any
channel's actual ID — blocking the entire ChannelView (v-if="channel")
and therefore all plugin tabs.

Fix: check for :// scheme before prepending, matching the pattern
restoreNeighbourhoodPrefix already uses three lines above. Also
extend ViewView's in-view link click handler to catch ad4m://obj/

restoreChannelPrefix, stripChannelPrefix, and stripNeighbourhoodPrefix
all crashed on undefined/null input (TypeError: Cannot read properties
of undefined). CallContainer.vue computed property hit this when
callRoute.channelId resolved to undefined.

Add nullish guards to all four route-utils functions (matching the
existing guard in restoreNeighbourhoodPrefix) and add comprehensive
test coverage for all functions including undefined/empty edge cases
and round-trip correctness.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
The `literal` language wraps every value in a signed-expression envelope
on write \u2014 `{ author, timestamp, data: <value>, proof }` \u2014 encoded into
a `literal:json:*` URL.  Message.body is the last Flux property that
opts into this storage (via `resolveLanguage: 'literal'`); everything
else moved to deterministic typed XSD literals in coasys/ad4m#874 and
needs no decode.

Upstream `parseLit` in @coasys/ad4m was tightened by the same refactor
to stop guessing at `.data` unwrapping for the generic case \u2014 it now
JSON-stringifies any decoded object.  That is correct for the generic
helper but broke the chat UI: the message list rendered the raw envelope
JSON (`{"author":..., "timestamp":..., "data":"<p>hi</p>", "proof":...}`)
instead of the message HTML.

Restore the pre-refactor behaviour just for Flux by making
`packages/api/src/utils/parseLit.ts` a real implementation again
(instead of a re-export shim):

- decode the literal URL
- if the decoded value is a signed-envelope object with a string
  `.data` field, return that string
- otherwise fall back to JSON.stringify for display

Point the two remaining Flux call sites (channel/index.ts and
conversation-subgroup/index.ts) at the local shim instead of the
upstream helper.

Tests
-----
- packages/api pnpm test: 7 files / 114 tests green
- parseLit.test.ts: new coverage for envelope unwrap, string-`.data`
  short-circuit, non-string `.data` fallback, and object-without-`.data`
  JSON stringify.

Out of scope
------------
Non-envelope typed-literal decode paths are unchanged; this restores
UI rendering without reintroducing legacy behaviour for other scalar
properties (channel titles, task names, timestamps, etc.).
The proper fix landed upstream in @coasys/ad4m commit c48c9117c on
refactor/typed-rdf-literals-and-fn-cleanup-nico-refactor
("fix(sdk): restore .data unwrap in parseLit for signed-envelope
literals"). This shim exists only to bridge the ad4m version Flux
consumes today (0.13.0-test-9 / packages/api pinned to 0.11.1) and
the next dev-test build that will carry the upstream fix.

Once a new @coasys/ad4m dev-test build lands and the Flux pins are
bumped, this file should be reverted to the one-line re-export and
the two remaining local-import call sites (channel/index.ts and
conversation-subgroup/index.ts) should switch back to importing
parseLit directly from @coasys/ad4m.

No behaviour change, comment-only.

Align all route utility signatures with nullish input handling.

All four functions return '' for nullish input at runtime, but strictNullChecks rejects those inputs. Declare string | null | undefined for each parameter and add direct null test cases. Remove the current undefined casts.

Add a test for null.

The parser has an explicit nullish guard, but this test block covers undefined and empty strings only. Add expect(parseLit(null)).toBe('') to verify the null path.

The two 'JSON-stringify' expectations in parseLit.test.ts were written
against the transient upstream contract that was later reverted \u2014 see
@coasys/ad4m commit c48c9117c ('fix(sdk): restore .data unwrap in
parseLit for signed-envelope literals').  Now that upstream unwraps
`.data` from signed-envelope literals again, Flux CI (which builds
ad4m from source on the same branch) started failing on these two
stale cases.

Flip both to the current contract:
- Literal.from({data: 'extracted'}).toUrl() -> 'extracted'
- full signed envelope {author, timestamp, data: '<p>hello</p>', proof}
  -> '<p>hello</p>'

Plain objects without a `.data` field still JSON.stringify \u2014 keep that
case as a regression guard.

Verified locally: pnpm --filter @coasys/flux-api test -> 7 files /
113 tests green (running against @coasys/ad4m built from this branch).
