Closes ADFA-5240.

Plugin-contributed Content rows were plain Brotli while every other Brotli row in the same table was compressed against the database's CompressionDictionary. WebServer could only tell the two apart by attempting a dictionary decode and catching the failure — behavior the Brotli spec doesn't promise. Now every Brotli row in a dictionary-declaring database is compressed the same way, and that retry is gone.

Review by commit

The five commits are meant to be read in order; each compiles and tests on its own.

56760150e Reindent the plugin documentation package to tabs. Mechanical. Spotless's ratchet is file-level, so editing one line of these space-indented files pulls each whole file in. Token-identical to the previous revision apart from the trailing commas ktlint adds — worth confirming, not worth reading line by line.
edb5af281 Move the dictionary loader to :common. Pure move of loadCompressionDictionary and toDirectByteBuffer, next to the DatabaseVersionResolver they gate on. The version gate, the CompressionDictionary checks and the throw-vs-null contract are unchanged, as is WebServer's retry.
84772f022 The actual fix. BrotliDictionaryCodec prepares the dictionary once per install and reuses it across the plugin's assets, at the same quality 11 / window 24 the offline pipeline uses.
343641787 Reinstall rows an earlier build left plain. A compression-generation marker, needed because removing the retry makes those rows unreadable.
9949a55d7 Drop the retry, plus the docs that described the mixed state as intended.

Design notes worth a reviewer's attention

Why the loader moved to :common. The reader and the writer each decided independently whether a database's Brotli rows carry a dictionary. A writer that disagrees with the reader produces content nothing can decode, so the two now call one implementation. That's the structural half of the fix; compressing with the dictionary is the other half.

The three-way outcome when loading the dictionary. A definitive null means the database has no dictionary, so its rows are plain and the plugin's must be too. A throw means the answer is merely unavailable right now — the install is abandoned rather than guessed, and retried on the plugin's next activation. Writing plain rows on a transient failure would corrupt content the reader can never decode.

The generation marker is app-side state, not a column. The schema belongs to OfflineDocumentationTools and is locked, and probing by decode is exactly the guesswork this ticket removes. It's only reachable when documentation.db survives an app upgrade — replacing that file drops every plugin row with it, which the existing missing-rows check already handles.

Verification

Unit tests — 428 pass. Four new ones in BrotliDictionaryDecodeTest cover the encode/decode contract against the CLI-trained dictionary fixture, so a brotli4j change that broke interop with the Python pipeline would surface here. The test asserting plugin content is dictionary-free inverted.

On-device, Galaxy Note 20 Ultra, with a real MAJOR 2 database (256 KB dictionary):

Reader. Tier 3 HTML, CSS, PNG and a 1.6 MB multi-chunk page all served 200 with correct bytes through the no-retry path. allpackages-index.html came back as 68,309 bytes, matching the dictionary database's row — the stale bundled database's copy of that same page is 70,359, so this confirms which file was actually served.

Writer. A throwaway plugin (built for this, not committed) contributing five assets — HTML, CSS, a nested HTML page, a PNG, and a 1.5 MB incompressible text file:

  • All five installed (skipped=0) and served byte-identical to the source assets.
  • The rows are genuinely dictionary-compressed: they decode correctly with CompressionDictionary attached and throw IOException: corrupted input without it.
  • The PNG stayed uncompressed — ContentTypes marks image/png as non-Brotli, so the else branch held.
  • large.txt split across two rows (1048576 + 151470), so chunked content works with a dictionary attached.
  • The subdirectory survived in the stored path.

Migration marker. Forced back to generation 1, as an earlier build would have left it, the next launch logged "missing or stale", reinstalled all five and bumped the marker to 2. Left alone, it skips.

Font scale — no UI is added or changed, so the 2x check doesn't apply.

Notes

BrotliCompressor and brotli4j drop out of plugin-manager; the codec lives in :common.

Size is not what this buys. On these synthetic test assets the dictionary saved 0.2–1.8% over plain Brotli — they're self-similar, so plain Brotli already does nearly as well. On a real shipped documentation page the same measurement was 8.2%. ADFA-5167 is the size ticket and is deliberately untouched here.

Filed ADFA-5326 along the way: the standalone plugin builds (markdown-preview-plugin, apk-viewer-plugin) fail on a clean stage with Unresolved reference: libs, since plugin-api's build script reads the root version catalog those builds don't wire up. Pre-existing, unrelated to this change, and worked around locally to get the test plugin built.

WebServer decided on its own whether a database's brotli Content rows
carry the shared dictionary. PluginDocumentationManager, in another
module, is about to need the identical decision when it writes those
rows -- and a writer that disagrees with the reader produces content
nothing can decode.

Move loadCompressionDictionary and toDirectByteBuffer to :common,
next to the DatabaseVersionResolver they gate on, so both sides read
the one implementation.

Pure move: the version gate, the CompressionDictionary checks and the
throw-vs-null contract are unchanged, as is WebServer's retry.

Plugin-contributed Content rows were plain brotli while every other
brotli row in the same table was compressed against the database's
CompressionDictionary. WebServer could only tell the two apart by
attempting a dictionary decode and catching the failure -- behavior
that is documented nowhere in the brotli spec.

Compress them the same way instead. BrotliDictionaryCodec (in :common,
beside the loader) prepares the dictionary once per install and reuses
it across the plugin's assets. Same quality 11 / window 24 as the
offline pipeline, so a row written on-device is indistinguishable in
size from one built ahead of time.

When the dictionary cannot be read the install is abandoned rather
than written plain: guessing produces rows WebServer cannot decode,
and verifyAndRecreateTier3Documentation retries on the next
activation. A database that declares no dictionary still gets plain
brotli, which is what its reader expects.

brotli4j drops out of plugin-manager's dependencies with
BrotliCompressor.

The verify step reinstalled only when a plugin's rows were missing, so
an app upgrade over an unchanged documentation.db would leave plain
brotli rows behind -- unreadable once WebServer stops retrying without
the dictionary.

Track the compression generation each plugin's rows were written at
and reinstall when it is behind. The rows cannot say this themselves:
the schema belongs to OfflineDocumentationTools and has no column for
it, and probing by decode is the guesswork this ticket removes.

Only reachable when documentation.db survives an upgrade. Replacing
that file drops every plugin row with it, which the existing
missing-rows check already handles.

Now that every brotli row in a dictionary-declaring database is
compressed against that dictionary, WebServer can attach it and read
the row, full stop. The try-dictionary-then-retry-plain dance existed
only to sort out rows written the other way, and it inferred which was
which from a decode failure -- behavior the brotli spec does not
promise.

A decode failure now means the row is damaged, and says so, instead of
being quietly retried into a second failure.

Documents the same in docs/documentation-database.md, which described
the mixed state as intended, and corrects its claim that nothing in
the app ever writes to this database.

  • Best-practice note: Shared codec behavior, explicit generation tracking, resource cleanup, contract validation, and database-change resets reduce format drift and stale-state errors.

Walkthrough

The PR centralizes Brotli dictionary handling in a shared codec and loader. Plugin documentation uses dictionary compression with generation tracking. WebServer performs single-pass dictionary-aware decoding. Tests and documentation define the versioned database format and failure behavior.

Changes

Brotli dictionary compression flow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Shared codec and dictionary loading
common/src/main/java/com/itsaky/androidide/utils/DocumentationCompression.kt, common/src/main/java/com/itsaky/androidide/utils/DatabaseVersionResolver.kt
Adds dictionary validation, version checks, codec warm-up, and shared Brotli compression and decompression utilities. Updates a KDoc reference.
Plugin documentation compression and generation tracking
plugin-manager/src/main/kotlin/com/itsaky/androidide/plugins/manager/documentation/PluginDocumentationManager.kt, plugin-manager/src/main/kotlin/com/itsaky/androidide/plugins/manager/documentation/Tier3AssetWalker.kt, plugin-manager/build.gradle.kts
Plugin Tier 3 assets use the shared codec. Installation aborts when the dictionary is unavailable. Compression generations are stored and checked. The direct Brotli dependency and compressor are removed. Tier3AssetWalker.kt also receives formatting-only changes.
Web server dictionary-aware decoding
app/src/main/java/com/itsaky/androidide/localWebServer/WebServer.kt
WebServer caches and reloads the shared codec. Database switches reset the codec. Dictionary-free fallback decoding is removed.
Codec validation and database contract
app/src/test/java/com/itsaky/androidide/localWebServer/BrotliDictionaryDecodeTest.kt, docs/documentation-database.md, common/build.gradle.kts, ARCHITECTURE.md, docs/adr/0001-prefer-room-for-persistence.md
Tests cover dictionary compression, codec reuse, buffer ownership, missing and wrong dictionaries, and plain Brotli. Documentation defines dictionary use for version 2 or newer databases and identifies the database writer and reader exceptions.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to c4f1d

The change makes plugin content use the shared dictionary and removes the fallback decode path; stale rows are covered by generation-marker reinstallation. However, codec warm-up can still fail before installation resources are closed, potentially leaking resources and bypassing normal failure handling. This is a bounded low-risk issue requiring explicit owner follow-up.

Half done, half declined.

DocumentationCompression.kt — done in e4efa915a. Agreed, and for a reason beyond convention: these messages went through slf4j when they lived in WebServer, and became android.util.Log only as a side effect of moving them into :common, so they'd stopped reaching the app's own log pipeline. That also shed a 24-character tag, over Android's 23-char cap.

PluginDocumentationManager.kt:216 — declining. That file has 37 Log.* calls and a TAG constant; converting the one line this PR adds would leave it internally inconsistent for no gain. The module is genuinely mixed (7 slf4j files, 14 android.util.Log), so this isn't a case of one straggler against a settled convention — a file-wide conversion is defensible, but as its own change, not folded into a content-compression PR that already touches this file heavily.

Happy to file that cleanup if it's wanted.

@davidschachterADFA, I verified the current branch.

DocumentationCompression.kt now uses LoggerFactory. This fixes both the app logging pipeline regression and the Android tag-length problem.

PluginDocumentationManager.kt still uses Log.e for the new dictionary-load failure at Line 218. The finding remains valid under the repository logging guideline. I agree that changing only this call would make the file less consistent.

Please file a separate follow-up issue for a file-wide migration of PluginDocumentationManager.kt from android.util.Log to SLF4J. That issue can define the required logger setup and migrate all existing call sites together.

A database swap marked the dictionary stale but left the old codec in
place. The reload that clears that flag can throw, and handleClient
serves the request anyway -- so the new database's rows would be
decoded against the previous database's dictionary. That does not
reliably fail; with a same-length dictionary holding plausible bytes
it returns 200 with the wrong content. Reset the codec at swap time so
the worst case is a loud failure instead.

beginTransaction() sat outside the try, so a throw there -- the
database is open elsewhere for reading, so a lock exception is not
hypothetical -- leaked both the database handle and the reflectively
built AssetManager. It moves inside, with endTransaction guarded on
inTransaction().

The generation marker was stamped by verifyAndRecreateTier3Documentation
rather than by the function that writes the rows. Since that function
is public, any other caller would write generation-2 rows and record
nothing, and every later verify would then delete and recompress the
whole asset set. It now happens beside the write it describes.

The marker used SharedPreferences.apply(). Losing that write to a
process death costs a full quality-11 recompress of every asset on the
next launch, and this already runs on Dispatchers.IO, so commit() is
the right trade.

… left

Both the docs and the new KDoc said a wrong dictionary "decodes
without error to different bytes". Testing that turned out to be only
conditionally true: a wrong dictionary of a different length, or with
nothing valid at the offsets the stream references, throws. It decodes
cleanly to wrong content only when it is the same length and holds
plausible bytes there -- which is exactly the shape two builds of the
same documentation.db have. Both statements now say so, and a test
pins both halves.

That test is also the evidence for the codec reset in the previous
commit, which is otherwise justified only by a comment.

Loose ends from the move into :common:

- The dictionary diagnostics went through slf4j from WebServer and
  became android.util.Log on the way over, so they stopped reaching
  the app's own log pipeline -- the one line explaining a "plugin docs
   500" report. Back to slf4j, which is also what most of this package
  uses, and which sheds a 24-character log tag that was over Android's
  23-character cap.
- encoderParameters re-loaded the brotli native, unreachable behind
  compress()'s own ensureBrotliAvailable(). It made sense in
  BrotliCompressor, which had no such guard.
- WebServer's switchToDatabase KDoc still linked a property this
  branch deleted; DatabaseVersionResolver still pointed at
  loadCompressionDictionary's old home.
- The version bullet in documentation-database.md still described the
  retry removed two commits ago, contradicting the bullet above it.
- An em dash in a Tier3AssetWalker log string, and a shadowed,
  never-read copy of responseStarted in the chunk loop.

Review findings addressed — 2 commits

Ten of the thirteen findings are fixed in 666fb0a1c and e4efa915a. Three are open questions I'd rather decide with a reviewer than settle unilaterally.

Fixed — correctness (666fb0a1c)

Stale codec after a database swap was the real find. switchToDatabase marked the dictionary stale but left codec pointing at the old database's dictionary; since the reload that clears the flag can throw and handleClient proceeds anyway, the new database's rows could be decoded against the previous dictionary. codec is now reset at swap time, so the worst case is a loud failure rather than a 200 carrying wrong bytes.

beginTransaction() outside the try leaked both the database handle and the reflectively-built AssetManager. Moved inside, with endTransaction guarded on inTransaction().

Marker written by the caller, not the writer. Correct, and worse than it looks: installPluginTier3Documentation is public, so any other caller would write generation-2 rows and record nothing, and every subsequent verify would delete and recompress the whole asset set. Now recorded beside the write.

apply()commit(). Already on Dispatchers.IO, and losing the write costs a full quality-11 recompress next launch.

Fixed — docs and cleanup (e4efa915a)

Stale [compressionDictionary] KDoc link; DatabaseVersionResolver pointing at the loader's old home; the version bullet in documentation-database.md still describing the deleted retry; the em dash in Tier3AssetWalker; the shadowed responseStarted; the unreachable Brotli4jLoader.ensureAvailability() in encoderParameters.

On the logging finding — the substantive half is that these messages went through slf4j from WebServer and became android.util.Log on the way into :common, so they stopped reaching the app's own log pipeline. Restored to slf4j, which also sheds the 24-character tag.

One correction to the review, and to this PR's own docs

The finding about the stale codec argued from the premise that a wrong dictionary "decodes without error to different bytes" — which this PR's docs and KDoc also asserted flatly. That is only conditionally true, and I only found out by writing the test:

wrong dictionary result
different length (much smaller) throws corrupted input
same length, every byte differs throws unexpected end of input
same length, differs outside referenced offsets decodes correctly
same length, plausible bytes at referenced offsets decodes cleanly to wrong content

The last row is the dangerous one, and it's the shape two builds of the same documentation.db actually have — so the conclusion holds and the fix stands. But "always silent" was wrong in both directions: a throw doesn't prove the dictionary was wrong, and a success doesn't prove it was right. The KDoc, documentation-database.md, and a new test now say exactly that, with both halves pinned.

429 unit tests pass; spotlessCheck and :app:assembleV8Debug clean.

Open — reviewer's call

The regression window (finding 5). Accurate, and the PR body didn't name it. Between WebServer starting and the async reinstall completing, a request for a not-yet-migrated plugin row now 500s where the retry used to serve it; and if the reinstall keeps failing (bad apkPath, database unavailable), it stays broken. Removing the fallback was the point of the ticket, so I don't want to quietly reintroduce it — but the options are worth discussing: make the reinstall block the server's first read, or keep a plain-decode fallback scoped to plugin/ paths only. Today the exposure is close to zero, since no shipped plugin declares Tier 3 content.

No automated test for the marker (finding 6). Correct. plugin-manager has no Robolectric and no test touching PluginDocumentationManager; the migration is covered only by the on-device run in the PR body — where I did exercise it, forcing the marker back to generation 1 and watching it reinstall. Adding Robolectric to that module is real scope, and adjacent to ADFA-5166. Happy to do it here if you'd rather not merge without it.

Tests stayed in :app (finding 13). Fair. The blocker is real: brotli4jNativeForHost() is wired as testImplementation in app/build.gradle.kts only, so moving the tests to :common means extracting that host-native wiring into build-logic — which is why I left them next to the CLI-fixture test they extend.

Gate WebServer readiness on Tier 3 migration.

PluginManager.installPluginDocumentationAsync launches Tier 3 migration independently of WebServer.start(). Until verifyAndRecreateTier3Documentation finishes, generation-1 rows remain plain Brotli, but WebServer.decompressBrotli attaches the database dictionary. A request for such a row can therefore fail during decoding and return HTTP 500. Add a readiness gate or version-aware decoding, plus an upgrade test before and after migration.

:common ships BrotliDictionaryCodec but its tests sit in :app, so
`:common:test` is green whether or not the codec works. Moving them
needs brotli4j's host-native dispatch extracted into build-logic
first -- a third copy of it already exists there -- which is its own
change, not one to make inside a content-compression PR.

A comment beside the test dependencies, so the misleading green is at
least documented where someone would look.

Status after review

CodeRabbit's three inline comments: two were already fixed in 666fb0a1c/e4efa915a (stale [compressionDictionary] KDoc link, em dash in Tier3AssetWalker) and it has marked both addressed. The third, slf4j logging, is answered inline — done for :common, declined for PluginDocumentationManager, where it would convert 1 of 37 Log.* calls in a file with a TAG constant.

Finding #3 (tests in the wrong module) — deferred, with 073aa641d documenting the trap beside :common's test dependencies. The reasoning: it's a split rather than a move (3 of the 11 tests exercise chunksAsStream/joinChunks, which are WebServer internals), the CLI dictionary fixture is used on both sides so it would get duplicated, and :common would need brotli4j's host-native dispatch — which already exists twice, in app/build.gradle.kts:226 and composite-builds/build-logic/plugins/build.gradle.kts:56. The version worth doing collapses all three into one in build-logic, and that shouldn't ride along here where a build-logic mistake would block this PR.

Worth noting the CI half of that finding doesn't hold: jacocoAggregateReport depends on every subproject's testV8DebugUnitTest and aggregates class dirs across all of them, so both suites run and :common's classes get coverage either way. The real cost is local — ./gradlew :common:test is green and means nothing about the codec.

Filed ADFA-5328 for something that turned up while checking the above, and which reframes every "add a test" request in this repo: no workflow gates a PR on unit tests. debug.yml runs :plugin-api:apiCheck, spotlessCheck and :app:assembleV8Debug — no test task. The only workflow that runs tests is analyze.yml via sonarqubejacocoAggregateReport, and build.gradle.kts:91 sets ignoreFailures for exactly that invocation, deliberately, so a failing suite can't abort the coverage upload. A broken test therefore shows up as a Sonar number, never a red check. The comment explaining that flag is sound on its own terms — the gap is that nothing else fills the gate.

That also puts finding #6 (no automated test for the generation marker) in context: adding one would be worth doing on its merits, but until ADFA-5328 lands it wouldn't stop a regression from merging. It stays covered by the on-device run in the PR description, where the marker was forced back to generation 1 and observed reinstalling.

Branch is at 073aa641d: 429 unit tests pass, spotlessCheck and :app:assembleV8Debug clean.

setTransactionSuccessful only marks intent; endTransaction, in the
finally, is what commits. The marker was written between the two, and
with commit() rather than apply() it lands on disk immediately -- so a
process death in that window left generation 2 standing against rows
that then rolled back.

That direction is the dangerous one. The install opens by deleting the
plugin's existing rows, so a rollback restores the legacy plain rows
it was replacing. The next verify would find rows present at the
current generation, skip the reinstall, and serve content that no
longer decodes now that the plain-decode retry is gone -- the exact
failure the marker exists to prevent.

Both paths now stamp after the transaction closes. The removal path
had the same ordering; its failure direction is harmless (a redundant
reinstall), but leaving the two written differently is how the install
path came to be wrong in the first place. Closing the database is also
nested under its own finally, so a throw from endTransaction can no
longer leak the handle.

No automated coverage for this: plugin-manager has no Robolectric and
no test touching PluginDocumentationManager, so a rollback test needs
that harness first. Noted on the PR.

Use SLF4J for the new log calls.

The changed lines add new android.util.Log calls. The coding guidelines require SLF4J with structured {} placeholders and the throwable as the last argument. The surrounding file already uses Log with a TAG, so a full migration is larger than this diff. Convert at least the new call sites, or track the file-wide migration as a follow-up.

♻️ Example conversion
+	private val log = LoggerFactory.getLogger(PluginDocumentationManager::class.java)
...
-					Log.e(TAG, "Cannot read the compression dictionary; deferring Tier 3 install for $pluginId", e)
+					log.error("Cannot read the compression dictionary; deferring Tier 3 install for {}", pluginId, e)
...
-					Log.d(TAG, "Installed $inserted Tier 3 documents for plugin $pluginId (skipped=$skipped)")
+					log.debug("Installed {} Tier 3 documents for plugin {} (skipped={})", inserted, pluginId, skipped)

As per coding guidelines: "Logging: use SLF4J (LoggerFactory.getLogger(Class::class.java)), not android.util.Log. Right level (debug for flow, info for milestones, warn/error for problems), structured {} placeholders, and pass the throwable as the last arg".

Limit details: You’ve used all 2 included reviews currently available.

A max-effort review found eleven contained defects. The measurements
behind two of them changed what the documentation should say.

"Attaching no dictionary to a stream that needs one reliably throws"
is only true when the stream actually referenced the dictionary.
Measured both directions: doc-like content fails as documented, but a
300 KB incompressible payload round-trips identically with or without
one, because it carries no backward matches for the dictionary to
shift. So a mixed row set fails non-uniformly -- a plugin's HTML 500s
while its images keep serving. The KDoc, docs and a restored test now
say that; the test's other half, covering plain rows read with a
dictionary attached, had been dropped when its obsolete half was
replaced.

The buffer-reuse test passed with the duplicate() it names removed,
because attachDictionary ignores position. It now asserts the caller's
buffer position directly, and fails without the fix.

Codec contract:

- A heap dictionary compressed fine and then threw
  IllegalArgumentException on every read; both that and a dictionary
  under 8 bytes (brotli4j's floor, measured) are now rejected at
  construction rather than at first use.
- loadCompressionDictionary treats a truncated blob as absent, so
  reader and writer keep agreeing.
- decompress documents that it closes the stream it is given, and no
  longer leaks it when the decoder fails to start.
- warmUp() lets a caller build the prepared dictionary before taking a
  lock, rather than inside one.

Installer:

- A database that declares a dictionary but has no usable one is
  damaged, not dictionary-free. Writing plain rows into it left them
  undecodable once the dictionary row was repaired in place, with no
  missing-rows check to catch them. It now defers, like the throw path.
- An install where every asset was skipped committed the delete that
  opened the transaction and recorded success -- destroying content
  that was serving. It rolls back.
- The codec load closes its resources through finally, so an
  OutOfMemoryError from the 256 KB direct allocation cannot leak a
  read-write handle on documentation.db.
- Paths are validated before compression rather than after.
- The prefs write result is checked; dropping it silently recreated
  the recompress-forever loop commit() was chosen to avoid.

Docs: ADR 0001 justified PluginDocumentationManager under "prebuilt
and opened read-only", which is the one thing it is not -- it is the
sole writer of documentation.db. Corrected to condition 3, schema
owned across a boundary, with ARCHITECTURE.md and this file's own lede
brought in line.

Third review round — 11 of 15 fixed in c4f1db069

Four are open, and they're one coherent problem I'd rather not solve inside this PR. Details at the bottom.

The two that changed the documentation

I re-measured both before touching anything, and the review was right that my own docs overclaimed.

"Attaching no dictionary to a stream that needs one reliably throws" holds only when the stream referenced the dictionary. Measured both directions against brotli4j 1.18.0 with the production 256 KB dictionary:

case result
plain doc-like row, dictionary attached 40/40 threw
plain 300 KB incompressible row, dictionary attached decodes correctly
dictionary-compressed doc-like row, no dictionary throws
dictionary-compressed incompressible row, no dictionary decodes correctly

Content with no backward matches into the dictionary round-trips identically either way. So a mixed row set fails non-uniformly — a plugin's HTML 500s while its images and any incompressible asset keep serving. That's a materially different debugging story from "it all breaks", and it's now in the KDoc, in documentation-database.md, and pinned by a test.

The review also caught that when I replaced the obsolete half of the old dictionary-free plugin content test, I dropped the other half — plain row + dictionary attached — which is now more load-bearing than it was, since it's the sole reason an unmigrated row 500s instead of serving corrupt bytes. Restored, with both branches of the content-dependence above.

The buffer-reuse test pinned nothing. PreparedDictionaryGenerator.generate does drain its argument (position 0 → 262144, confirmed), but attachDictionary reads capacity and ignores position, so the round trip passed with duplicate() removed. It now asserts the caller's buffer position directly. Verified it fails without the fix:

BrotliDictionaryDecodeTest > compressing does not drain the caller's dictionary buffer FAILED
    java.lang.AssertionError: compress() consumed the dictionary buffer it was given

Codec contract

A heap dictionary compressed fine and then threw IllegalArgumentException on every read — the encoder copies into a direct buffer of its own, the decoder refuses outright. Both that and a dictionary under 8 bytes (brotli4j's floor; measured 7 throws, 8 round-trips) are now rejected at construction. loadCompressionDictionary treats a truncated blob as absent so reader and writer keep agreeing. decompress documents that it closes the stream it's handed, and no longer leaks it when the decoder fails to start. warmUp() lets a caller build the prepared dictionary before taking a lock instead of inside one.

Installer

A database that declares a dictionary but has no usable one is damaged, not dictionary-free. This was the sharpest of the remaining findings: writing plain rows there left them undecodable once someone repaired the dictionary row in place — no file replacement, so no row drop, so no missing-rows reinstall, and the generation marker says 2 forever. It now defers like the throw path. The marker records which build wrote the rows, not which scheme, and rather than widen it I removed the case where the two could disagree.

An install where every asset was skipped committed the delete that opened the transaction and recorded success — destroying content that was serving and replacing it with nothing. Rolls back now. Newly reachable because this PR forces a reinstall of already-working rows on upgrade.

Also: the codec load closes through finally (an OutOfMemoryError from the 256 KB direct allocation would have slipped past catch (Exception) and leaked a read-write handle), paths are validated before compression rather than after, and the prefs write result is checked — discarding it silently recreated the recompress-forever loop commit() was chosen to avoid.

Docs

ADR 0001 justified PluginDocumentationManager under condition 1, "the database is prebuilt and opened read-only" — the one thing it isn't, since it's the sole writer of documentation.db. That was wrong before this PR and this PR made it conspicuous by documenting the write. Corrected to condition 3 (schema owned across a boundary), with ARCHITECTURE.md and this file's own lede brought in line, and the new :common site listed.

Open — all four are the same problem

The Tier 3 migration runs only on activation of an enabled plugin, from PluginManager.installPluginDocumentationAsync. That leaves four holes the review found separately:

  1. A disabled plugin never migrates, and nothing on the disable path removes its rows — while its tooltips and their Tier 3 buttons are still served.
  2. A plugin version that drops its Tier 3 assets returns early before the generation check, orphaning the previous version's rows.
  3. verifyAllPluginDocumentation, documented as the hook for when the database changes, has no Tier 3 branch at all — despite the dictionary being per-database, which makes a database change exactly when Tier 3 rows must be rewritten.
  4. Concurrent activations each hold an exclusive write transaction across quality-11 compression, so on the first launch after an upgrade they contend; losers roll back to legacy rows with no in-session retry.

Fixing these means changing plugin lifecycle and the transaction/compression split, which is a different change from "compress with the dictionary" and carries its own regression surface. Today's exposure is nil — no shipped plugin declares Tier 3 content — so I'd rather file them than grow this PR further. Happy to do it here instead if a reviewer disagrees; otherwise I'll open a ticket and link it.

431 unit tests pass; spotlessCheck and :app:assembleV8Debug clean.

Describe missing-dictionary failures as content-dependent.

The statement that a migrated database with no dictionary "fails loudly" is too broad. Rows that reference dictionary bytes fail, but rows that never reference them can still decode as plain Brotli. State this distinction so diagnostics do not treat partially working content as evidence that the dictionary is valid.

codec.warmUp() ran between the codec-load block and the install
try/finally, so a throw there -- an IOException when brotli's natives
are unavailable, or a failure building the prepared dictionary -- leaked
the read-write documentation.db handle and the plugin's AssetManager,
and escaped to the caller instead of returning the normal failed-install
false.

Move the call inside the install try, before beginTransaction(). The
existing finally already handles that path: db.inTransaction() is false
so no endTransaction runs, both handles close, and the generation marker
stays unstamped.

Addresses the coderabbitai review finding on PR #1756 (discussion
r3877541424). No regression test: plugin-manager has no harness for
PluginDocumentationManager (see the rollback thread on this PR).
