# Publishing: Visibility Transitions, PublicView & Public Read API Implementation Plan
> **For agentic workers:** REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (`- [ ]`) syntax for tracking.
**Goal:** Turn the publishing pillar on: a type-driven `Visibility` state machine (stepwise `draft↔internal↔public`), an audited `db` transition + public-only reads, and the first real domain HTTP surface — an unauthenticated, read-only **public API** (`/api/public/objects`) that serves only `public` records as a leak-proof `PublicView` projection.
**Architecture:** Three layers, each testable in isolation (no auth needed — the public surface is unauthenticated by definition; the admin HTTP endpoint that *triggers* transitions waits for the auth phase, same "build capability now, wire surface later" pattern used for search).
- `domain``Visibility::transition_to` / `can_transition_to` + an `IllegalTransition` error (the state machine).
- `db``set_visibility` (validates via the domain machine, reuses `update_object`'s diff/audit path) + `public_object_by_id` / `list_public_objects` / `count_public_objects` (filter `visibility = 'public'` in SQL).
- `api` — a `PublicView` response DTO (carries only public-safe fields, so leaking an internal field is structurally impossible) + `/api/public/objects` (paginated list) and `/api/public/objects/{id}` (404 for missing **or** non-public, so non-public existence isn't revealed), registered in the OpenAPI doc.
**Tech Stack:** Rust 2024, axum 0.8, sqlx 0.8, utoipa 5, serde, thiserror. Tests: `#[sqlx::test]` (db) and axum `oneshot` over `#[sqlx::test]` (api).
## Design decisions (approved)
- **PublicView is core-only for MVP:** `id`, `object_number`, `object_name`, `brief_description`. **No flexible fields, no location/owner/recorder/dates.** Per-field publishability (which would let flexible fields surface selectively) is post-MVP; until then the projection type simply lacks the unsafe fields.
- **Stepwise transitions:** legal single steps are `draft↔internal` and `internal↔public` only. `draft→public` (and `public→draft`) in one jump is illegal. Setting visibility to its current value is an idempotent no-op (`Ok`).
- **Transitions land in `domain` + `db` only** this phase. The admin HTTP endpoint to invoke them arrives with auth (later phase).
- **Public-facing search is post-MVP** (arch spec §12) — this plan adds no public search endpoint; public list is a `db` query.
- **404, not 403,** for a non-public record on the public surface (don't leak existence).
## Prerequisites
- Postgres for tests; pass `DATABASE_URL` inline. Pass transaction connections as `&mut tx` (NOT `&mut *tx`).
- `cargo +nightly fmt` (nightly). `cargo clippy --all-targets -- -D warnings` must stay clean.
- The codename "biggus"/"dickus" must appear nowhere in code/comments/identifiers.

## Task 1: `domain` — `Visibility` state machine
**Files:** modify `crates/domain/src/object.rs`, `crates/domain/src/lib.rs`.
- [ ] **Step 1: Write the failing tests.** Add to the `#[cfg(test)] mod tests` in `crates/domain/src/object.rs`:
```rust
#[test]
fn stepwise_transitions_are_legal() {
use Visibility::*;
assert_eq!(Draft.transition_to(Internal), Ok(Internal));
assert_eq!(Internal.transition_to(Public), Ok(Public));
assert_eq!(Public.transition_to(Internal), Ok(Internal));
assert_eq!(Internal.transition_to(Draft), Ok(Draft));
}
#[test]
fn skipping_a_step_is_illegal() {
use Visibility::*;
assert_eq!(
Draft.transition_to(Public),
Err(IllegalTransition { from: Draft, to: Public })
);
assert_eq!(
Public.transition_to(Draft),
Err(IllegalTransition { from: Public, to: Draft })
);
}
#[test]
fn setting_to_current_value_is_a_noop_ok() {
for v in [Visibility::Draft, Visibility::Internal, Visibility::Public] {
assert_eq!(v.transition_to(v), Ok(v));
}
}
```
- [ ] **Step 2: Run to verify it fails.** `cargo test -p domain` → FAIL (`transition_to` / `IllegalTransition` missing).
- [ ] **Step 3: Implement.** In `crates/domain/src/object.rs`, after the `impl Visibility` block (the existing one with `as_str`/`from_db`), add the transition API and the error type. (domain has no `thiserror` dependency — implement `Display`/`Error` by hand to keep the core dependency-free.)
```rust
impl Visibility {
/// Whether `self` may move directly to `target`. Legal single steps are
/// `draft↔internal` and `internal↔public`; `draft↔public` is not one step.
pub fn can_transition_to(self, target: Visibility) -> bool {
use Visibility::*;
matches!(
(self, target),
(Draft, Internal) | (Internal, Draft) | (Internal, Public) | (Public, Internal)
)
}
/// Validate a stepwise transition to `target`. Setting to the current value is an
/// idempotent no-op (`Ok`). A forbidden jump returns [`IllegalTransition`].
pub fn transition_to(self, target: Visibility) -> Result<Visibility, IllegalTransition> {
if self == target || self.can_transition_to(target) {
Ok(target)
} else {
Err(IllegalTransition { from: self, to: target })
}
}
}
/// An attempted visibility change the state machine forbids.
#[derive(Debug, Clone, Copy, PartialEq, Eq)]
pub struct IllegalTransition {
pub from: Visibility,
pub to: Visibility,
}
impl std::fmt::Display for IllegalTransition {
fn fmt(&self, f: &mut std::fmt::Formatter<'_>) -> std::fmt::Result {
write!(
f,
"illegal visibility transition: {} -> {}",
self.from.as_str(),
self.to.as_str()
)
}
}
impl std::error::Error for IllegalTransition {}
```
In `crates/domain/src/lib.rs`, extend the object re-export:
```rust
pub use object::{CatalogueObject, IllegalTransition, ObjectInput, Visibility};
```
- [ ] **Step 4: Run to verify it passes.** `cargo test -p domain` → PASS.
- [ ] **Step 5: Lint.** `cargo +nightly fmt`; `cargo clippy -p domain --all-targets -- -D warnings` → clean.
- [ ] **Step 6: Commit.**
```bash
git add crates/domain
git commit -m "feat(domain): stepwise Visibility state machine (transition_to + IllegalTransition)"
```

## Task 2: `db` — audited visibility transition + public reads
**Files:** modify `crates/db/src/catalog.rs`; create `crates/db/tests/visibility.rs`.

```
- [ ] **Step 2: Run to verify it fails.** `DATABASE_URL=<url> cargo test -p db --test visibility` → FAIL (`set_visibility` / `VisibilityError` / public readers missing).
- [ ] **Step 3: Implement** in `crates/db/src/catalog.rs`.
Extend the `domain` import (add `IllegalTransition`):
```rust
use domain::{
AuditAction, AuditActor, CatalogueObject, FieldChange, FieldType, IllegalTransition,
NewAuditEvent, ObjectId, ObjectInput, Visibility,
};
```
Add the visibility-eligible constant next to the existing `ENTITY_TYPE` const:
```rust
/// The visibility value eligible for the public surface.
const PUBLIC_VISIBILITY: &str = "public";
```
Add the error type and `set_visibility` (place after `update_object`, before `delete_object`):
```rust
/// Why changing an object's visibility failed.
#[derive(Debug, thiserror::Error)]
pub enum VisibilityError {
#[error("object not found")]
ObjectNotFound,
#[error(transparent)]
Illegal(#[from] IllegalTransition),
#[error(transparent)]
Db(#[from] sqlx::Error),
}
/// Move an object to `target` visibility, enforcing the stepwise state machine, and
/// audit the change. Reuses [`update_object`]'s diff/audit path, so only `visibility`
/// appears in the audit entry — and setting to the current value is an idempotent no-op
/// (no row touch, no audit). Pass a transaction connection (`&mut tx`).
pub async fn set_visibility(
conn: &mut sqlx::PgConnection,
actor: AuditActor,
id: ObjectId,
target: Visibility,
) -> Result<(), VisibilityError> {
let Some(object) = object_by_id(&mut *conn, id).await? else {
return Err(VisibilityError::ObjectNotFound);
};
let new_visibility = object.visibility.transition_to(target)?;
let mut input = object.to_input();
input.visibility = new_visibility;
update_object(&mut *conn, actor, id, &input).await?;
Ok(())
}
```
Add the public readers (place after `list_objects`):
```rust
/// Fetch one **public** object by id. Returns `None` if the object is missing **or**
/// not public — callers map both to 404 so non-public existence isn't revealed.
pub async fn public_object_by_id<'e, E>(
executor: E,
id: ObjectId,
) -> Result<Option<CatalogueObject>, sqlx::Error>
where
E: sqlx::PgExecutor<'e>,
{
let sql = format!("SELECT {OBJECT_COLUMNS} FROM object WHERE id = $1 AND visibility = $2");
let row = sqlx::query(&sql)
.bind(id.to_uuid())
.bind(PUBLIC_VISIBILITY)
.fetch_optional(executor)
.await?;
row.map(map_object).transpose()
}
/// List **public** objects ordered by object number, with `limit`/`offset` paging.
pub async fn list_public_objects<'e, E>(
executor: E,
limit: i64,
offset: i64,
) -> Result<Vec<CatalogueObject>, sqlx::Error>
where
E: sqlx::PgExecutor<'e>,
{
let sql = format!(
"SELECT {OBJECT_COLUMNS} FROM object WHERE visibility = $1 \
ORDER BY object_number LIMIT $2 OFFSET $3"
);
let rows = sqlx::query(&sql)
.bind(PUBLIC_VISIBILITY)
.bind(limit)
.bind(offset)
.fetch_all(executor)
.await?;
rows.into_iter().map(map_object).collect()
}
/// Count all public objects (for pagination totals).
pub async fn count_public_objects<'e, E>(executor: E) -> Result<i64, sqlx::Error>
where
E: sqlx::PgExecutor<'e>,
{
let row = sqlx::query("SELECT count(*) AS n FROM object WHERE visibility = $1")
.bind(PUBLIC_VISIBILITY)
.fetch_one(executor)
.await?;
row.try_get("n")
}
```
- [ ] **Step 4: Run to verify it passes.** `DATABASE_URL=<url> cargo test -p db --test visibility` → PASS (5 tests).
- [ ] **Step 5: Lint.** `cargo +nightly fmt`; `DATABASE_URL=<url> cargo clippy -p db --all-targets -- -D warnings` → clean.
- [ ] **Step 6: Commit.**
```bash

```

## Task 3: `api` — public read API (`PublicView` + routes + OpenAPI)
**Files:** modify `crates/api/Cargo.toml`, `crates/api/src/lib.rs`, `crates/api/src/openapi.rs`; create `crates/api/src/public.rs`, `crates/api/tests/public.rs`.
- [ ] **Step 1: Cargo deps.** In `crates/api/Cargo.toml` `[dependencies]`, add `domain` and `uuid` (the projection consumes `domain::CatalogueObject`; the path handler parses a UUID):
```toml
domain = { path = "../domain" }
uuid = { workspace = true }
```
Add to `[dev-dependencies]` (the handler tests seed objects through `db` repos, which need `domain` types):
```toml
domain = { path = "../domain" }
```
- [ ] **Step 2: Write the failing test** `crates/api/tests/public.rs`:
```rust

In `crates/api/src/openapi.rs`, register the public paths + schemas. Update the imports and the `#[openapi(...)]` attribute:
```rust
use crate::{AppState, health, public};
```
```rust
#[derive(OpenApi)]
#[openapi(
paths(health::live, health::ready, public::list_objects, public::get_object),
components(schemas(health::Live, health::Ready, public::PublicView, public::PublicObjectPage)),
info(title = "Collection Management System", version = "0.0.0")
)]
struct ApiDoc;
```
- [ ] **Step 5: Run to verify it passes.** `DATABASE_URL=<url> cargo test -p api --test public` → PASS (5 tests). Re-run the existing `health` test too: `DATABASE_URL=<url> cargo test -p api` → all PASS.
- [ ] **Step 6: Full workspace check.**
```bash
cargo +nightly fmt --check
DATABASE_URL=<url> cargo clippy --workspace --all-targets -- -D warnings
DATABASE_URL=<url> MEILI_URL=<url> MEILI_MASTER_KEY=<key> cargo test --workspace
```
Expected: all green. (`search` tests need the MEILI env vars; the rest need `DATABASE_URL`.)
- [ ] **Step 7: Commit.**
```bash
git add crates/api
git commit -m "feat(api): public read API (PublicView projection, paginated list + get, OpenAPI)"
```

## Self-Review (completed)
**Spec coverage (VISION "Publishing & public access" [MVP]; arch spec §7, §9, §14):**
- Record-level visibility draft/internal/public with a type-driven state machine → Task 1 (`transition_to`/`IllegalTransition`). ✓
- Fixed never-public field set; public API serves only public records via `PublicView` → Task 3 (`PublicView` carries only safe fields; db filters `visibility='public'`). ✓
- Public surface `/api/public/**`, unauthenticated, read-only, OpenAPI (utoipa) → Task 3. ✓
- All SQL stays in `db`; `api` calls repos → Tasks 23. ✓
- Audited writes (visibility change in the amendment history) → Task 2 reuses `update_object`'s audit. ✓
- 404 (not 403) for non-public → Task 3 handler + test. ✓
**Placeholder scan:** none. `<url>`/`<key>` are the documented env values.
**Type consistency:** `Visibility::{transition_to, can_transition_to}` + `IllegalTransition` defined in Task 1 and consumed in Tasks 23; `set_visibility`/`VisibilityError`/`public_object_by_id`/`list_public_objects`/`count_public_objects` defined in Task 2 and consumed by Task 3 handlers; `PublicView`/`PublicObjectPage`/`Pagination` defined and used consistently within Task 3; reuses existing `catalog::{create_object, object_by_id, update_object, OBJECT_COLUMNS, map_object}`, `audit::history_for`, `AppState`, `db.pool()`, and the axum `{id}` path convention.
## Notes for follow-on plans
- **Admin transition endpoint + auth:** the HTTP surface to *invoke* `set_visibility` (publish/unpublish) is a privileged write — it lands with the auth phase via an `Authorized<Cap>` extractor. `domain` may then add ergonomic `publish()`/`unpublish()` wrappers over `transition_to` (omitted now to avoid dead code).
- **Required-field completeness on publish:** `set_object_fields` defers required-completeness to "the publish gate" (see `catalog.rs` doc comment). A future gate should validate that all `required` field definitions are present before allowing `→ Public`. **File a gitea follow-up.**
- **On-write search sync:** when `set_visibility` / catalogue writes commit, the API/service layer should re-index (`index_object`) or drop from the index — relates to the Plan 6 deferred on-write sync.
- **Per-field publishability (post-MVP):** replaces the core-only `PublicView` with a registry-driven projection that can surface selected flexible fields.
- **Keyset pagination:** `list_public_objects` uses `LIMIT/OFFSET` (fine for MVP). Switch to keyset when collections grow (the same TODO already noted on `list_objects`).
- **Public-facing search (post-MVP):** the `search` crate already stores `visibility` as filterable; add a `with_filter("visibility = public")` variant when public search is built.
