Drizzle generates names past Postgres's 63-character identifier limit. Postgres
stores the truncated form, drizzle compares against its own longer one, and every
push on every host drops and re-adds constraints that are already identical.
Deferred as harmless noise since 2026-08-19. What ended that was a deploy plan
saying "expect no changes, stop if it wants to alter something" — which this made
impossible to satisfy, so the deploy agent had to overrule its own instructions.
Verified by pushing twice against a scratch database: the fleet-wide second-push
churn went from ten statements to two, and the two that remain are a composite
primary key that cannot be fixed either way.
Naming a foreign key means removing the inline .references() or drizzle creates
both.

the extraction kept atelier's own postgres database, because the brief said to
when the tables already had rows. the owner reversed it, and the reason is not
tidiness: a plugin that behaves differently from every other plugin is a
plugin nobody can reason about.
the separate database meant a second connection string to set before install,
a second thing to back up, a second thing to get wrong on a new machine, and
failure modes no other plugin shares — none of it bought anything except
avoiding a migration.
four tables now: atelier_collections, atelier_collection_items,
atelier_providers, atelier_generations. index and check constraint names carry
the prefix too — those are global in postgres and are the one thing that would
otherwise collide with another plugin.
db/schema.ts re-exports the definitions rather than duplicating them: they stay
beside the code that queries them in sidecar/db/, and that file exists to be
found by gen-plugin-schemas.
ATELIER_POSTGRES_URL is gone. db.ts reads OFFICERDEV_POSTGRES_URL ?? POSTGRES_URL,
which the platform already sets.
the standalone service's rows are NOT here and nothing depends on them being
here — the old service is still running against the old database, untouched,
and migrating is a separate watched step after this is proven on alpha.
ported from the standalone officer-atelier service: providers (adapter-shaped, openai the only
adapter today), the generation queue, collections, and the database layer — kept on its own
Postgres database rather than folded into officer_db, since both collections and provider_settings
had rows on the machine this was extracted from.
what changed rather than just moved:
- images are served from an authenticated GET /files/:filename instead of an unauthenticated
PUBLIC_URL-prefixed static route
- the OpenAI-key bootstrap fallback reads the secret store (getSecret) before .env, per-adapter
- provider_settings (the one-row-per-adapter shape providers replaced) did not come along — it has
no callers left anywhere in the server code, only a migration script that also did not move
ping/echo (smoke-test routes with no caller) did not move either; the sidecar's own /_health covers
liveness.
not yet wired into the platform: sidecar/index.ts exists but nothing mounts it, and web/ has not
been written, so this is not yet a discoverable plugin.
