📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe persistence layer adds atomic resume snapshots and key-set evidence. SQLite records and validates expected keys, while Electric rejects uncertified or incompatible resumes. New tests cover reset histories, schema races, restart recovery, hydration races, and legacy schemas. ChangesPersisted resume integrity

- Around line 1922-1925: Update the reset path around expectInResumeSnapshot and
expectCurrentCommitInResumeSnapshot so snapshot-capable metadata cannot commit
before generation ownership is tracked. When expectInResumeSnapshot is true but
the callback is absent, defer commit until after the atomic baseline load, or
enforce that snapshot-capable metadata supplies generation tracking; preserve
the existing commit behavior when the callback is present.

Preserve generation ownership for snapshot-dependent resets.
When expectInResumeSnapshot is true, a custom metadata wrapper can retain snapshot hydration hooks while omitting expectCurrentCommitInResumeSnapshot. The reset still commits, but the persistence runtime does not update its tracked generation owner. The later baseline snapshot can then be marked incompatible, causing hydration to reject and the collection to enter error.
Defer this reset commit until after the atomic baseline load when the callback is absent, or require generation tracking for snapshot-capable metadata.

Summary
SQLite persistence now certifies that a saved Electric cursor belongs to the same complete durable baseline before Electric resumes from it. Schema resets clear baseline-coupled metadata atomically, stale adapters cannot write through a newer schema, and uncertain or incompatible baselines trigger one fresh snapshot instead of exposing incomplete rows.
Part of #1659.
Reviewer guidance
Root cause
The persistence boundary previously reconstructed startup state through separate row, metadata, and stream-position reads. A schema mismatch reset removed rows, tombstones, and transaction state but could leave the old
electric:resumecursor behind; out-of-band row loss was also indistinguishable from a complete cached baseline. Electric could therefore request only post-cursor changes while hydrating an incomplete or newly reset replica, as in the #1589 failure mode.Approach
loadResumeSnapshotadapter capability that returns rows, collection metadata, stream position, reset epoch, and key-set evidence from one SQLite transaction.InvalidPersistedCollectionConfigErrorbefore mutating durable state.errorwithout publishing partial state.Key invariants
Trade-offs
Certified SQLite collections add one expected-key table plus lightweight per-collection triggers and ledger updates on committed writes. In exchange, completeness is established from durable evidence instead of inferred from row counts. When evidence is unavailable or changes during startup, the implementation deliberately pays for a full snapshot rather than risk resuming from an incomplete replica.
loadResumeSnapshotremains an optional persistence-adapter extension; adapters without it retain the existing startup path and do not receive SQLite's new certification claim.Non-goals
node:sqliteseams. It does not claim multiprocess WAL, mobile/Tauri/native-device, or live Electric-service coverage.Verification and details
