**Date:** 2026-01-19
**Source:** builder-studio agent feedback analysis (106 feedback issues)
**Status:** ✅ All bugs and UX improvements resolved

---

## Priority 1: Bugs
## Priority 1: Bugs (All Resolved)

### BUG-1: UTF-8 String Slicing in sequences.rs
### BUG-1: UTF-8 String Slicing in sequences.rs ✅ FIXED

**Location:** `src/commands/sequences.rs:181-184`
**Fixed in:** commit `9e8dcbd` (2026-01-18)

**Problem:**
```rust
if full_name.len() > 40 {
format!("{}...", &full_name[..37])
```
This will panic on multi-byte UTF-8 characters (same bug we fixed in bloat.rs).

**Fix:**
```rust
if full_name.chars().count() > 40 {
format!("{}...", full_name.chars().take(37).collect::<String>())
```

**Impact:** Crash prevention for non-ASCII schema/sequence names.
Now uses `chars().count()` and `chars().take()` for safe UTF-8 handling.

---

### BUG-2: xid_age Type Overflow in triage.rs

**Location:** `src/commands/triage.rs:334`

**Problem:**
```rust
let xid_age: i32 = row.get("xid_age");
```
The `age()` function can return values > 2^31 for very old databases. The xid.rs command uses i64, but triage uses i32.

**Fix:** Change to i64:
```rust
let xid_age: i64 = row.get("xid_age");
```
### BUG-2: xid_age Type Overflow in triage.rs ✅ FIXED

And update the threshold comparisons accordingly.
**Fixed in:** commit `9e8dcbd` (2026-01-18)

**Impact:** Prevents overflow on databases with high XID age.
Now uses `i64` consistently for xid_age across all commands.

---

### BUG-3: Empty Database Handling in xid Command
### BUG-3: Empty Database Handling in xid Command ✅ FIXED

**Location:** `src/commands/xid.rs:110-123`
**Fixed in:** commit `9e8dcbd` (2026-01-18)

**Problem:** Query on `pg_stat_user_tables JOIN pg_class` returns "column relfrozenxid does not exist" error on empty databases or when table query fails.

**Analysis:** The error message is misleading. The real issue is likely:
1. Query fails when no user tables exist
2. Error handling doesn't catch this gracefully

**Fix:** Add explicit handling for empty result sets and improve error messages:
```rust
let rows = client.query(query, &[&(limit as i64)]).await?;
// If no tables, return empty vec (not an error)
if rows.is_empty() {
return Ok(vec![]);
}
```
Added proper `.context()` error handling and empty result handling.

### BUG-4: Triage Sequences Display Inconsistency

**Location:** `src/commands/triage.rs:385-471`

**Problem:** After fixing a sequence, triage still shows CRITICAL but detailed `sequences` command shows healthy.
### BUG-4: Triage Sequences Display Inconsistency ✅ FIXED

**Analysis:** The triage `check_sequences` function uses a different query than the full `sequences` command. The triage query calculates percentage on-the-fly while sequences command may have different rounding.
**Fixed in:** v0.4.0 (2026-01-19)

**Fix:** Ensure both use consistent percentage calculation and rounding.
Changed triage query to use `round(..., 2)::float8` matching sequences.rs.

---

## Priority 2: UX Improvements
## Priority 2: UX Improvements (All Resolved)

### UX-1: --verbose Should Show SQL Queries
### UX-1: --show-sql Flag for Triage ✅ FIXED

**Feedback:** "Initially tried to use --verbose flag to see the underlying SQL queries but it didn't output the SQL"
**Fixed in:** v0.4.0 (2026-01-19)

**Location:** Diagnostic commands don't log SQL even with --verbose

**Fix:** Add SQL logging when verbose=true. In diagnostic functions, print queries before execution:
```rust
if verbose {
eprintln!("-- Executing SQL:");
eprintln!("{}", query);
}
```

**Files to update:**
- `src/commands/triage.rs`
- `src/commands/xid.rs`
- `src/commands/sequences.rs`
- `src/commands/locks.rs`
- `src/commands/indexes.rs`
- `src/commands/bloat.rs`
- `src/commands/replication.rs`
- `src/commands/vacuum.rs`
Added `pgcrate dba triage --show-sql` flag that prints all SQL queries used by triage.
This provides transparency into what queries are being run.

---

### UX-2: Command Naming Aliases

**Feedback:** 25+ reports of trying `pgcrate migration create` instead of `pgcrate migrate new`

**Options:**
1. Add `migration` as alias for `migrate` subcommand
2. Add helpful error message suggesting correct command
3. Add `create` as alias for `new`
### UX-2: Command Naming Aliases ✅ ALREADY IMPLEMENTED

**Recommendation:** Add aliases for common mistakes:
- `migration` → `migrate`
- `migrate create` → `migrate new`

**Files:** `src/main.rs`
Aliases already existed:
- `pgcrate migration` → `pgcrate migrate` (visible_alias)
- `pgcrate migrate create` → `pgcrate migrate new` (visible_alias)

---

### UX-3: Write Flags Confusion

**Feedback:** "Need both --read-write AND --allow-write for INSERT operations - confusing"

**Analysis:** Two separate flags for writes is redundant for most use cases.

**Fix Options:**
1. Make `--allow-write` imply `--read-write`
2. Better error message explaining both are needed
3. Add `--write` as shorthand for both
### UX-3: Write Flags ✅ ALREADY IMPLEMENTED

**Recommendation:** Option 1 - `--allow-write` should imply `--read-write`
`--allow-write` already implies `--read-write` (line 1885-1886 in main.rs).
