10
+ ### Added - Major v2 Features
11
+
12
+ #### Budget System (Query SLOs)
13
+ - **Budget DSL**: Define query budgets per controller action via `config.budget.for("controller#action", count:, duration_ms:)`
14
+ - **Job Budgets**: Define budgets for background jobs via `config.budget.for_job(JobClass, count:, duration_ms:)`
15
+ - **Three Enforcement Modes**:
16
+ - `:log` - Log warnings only (safe for production)
17
+ - `:notify` - Call custom callback for monitoring integration
18
+ - `:raise` - Raise exception (ideal for CI/testing)
19
+ - **Violation Callbacks**: `config.budget.on_violation` for integration with Datadog, Sentry, Honeybadger, etc.
20
+ - **Per-Environment Configuration**: Different budgets and modes per environment
21
+
22
+ #### Trace API
23
+ - **Manual Query Tracking**: `QueryGuard.trace(label, context:) { ... }` for console and code
24
+ - **Rich Reports**: Returns `[result, report]` with query count, duration, violations, fingerprints
25
+ - **Context Support**: Pass context hash for better debugging and correlation
26
+ - **Budget Integration**: Automatic budget violation checking in traces
27
+ - **Thread-Safe**: Properly manages thread-local stats
28
+
29
+ #### RSpec Integration
30
+ - **Budget Matcher**: `expect { ... }.to_not exceed_query_budget(count:, duration_ms:)`
31
+ - **Named Budget Matcher**: `expect { ... }.to_not exceed_query_budget("users#index")`
32
+ - **Helper Method**: `within_query_budget(count:, duration_ms:) { ... }` raises on violation
33
+ - **Auto-Configuration**: Automatically includes helpers when RSpec is loaded
34
+
35
+ #### Enhanced Fingerprinting
36
+ - **Advanced SQL Normalization**:
37
+ - Removes string and numeric literals
38
+ - Normalizes `IN (...)` lists
39
+ - Collapses whitespace
40
+ - Case-insensitive
41
+ - **Per-Fingerprint Statistics**:
42
+ - Execution count
43
+ - Total, min, max duration
44
+ - First and last seen timestamps
45
+ - **Query Ranking APIs**:
46
+ - `QueryGuard::Fingerprint.top_by_count(limit)` - Most frequent queries
47
+ - `QueryGuard::Fingerprint.top_by_duration(limit)` - Highest total time
48
+ - `QueryGuard::Fingerprint.top_by_avg_duration(limit)` - Slowest on average
49
+ - **Stats API**: `QueryGuard::Fingerprint.stats_for(fingerprint)` for detailed metrics
50
+ - **Process-Level Storage**: In-memory statistics per process
51
+
52
+ ### Documentation
53
+ - **Comprehensive README**: Complete feature overview with comparisons to Datadog, Skylight, and Grafana
54
+ - **EXAMPLES.md**: Practical usage examples for all scenarios (development, testing, production)
55
+ - **MIGRATION.md**: Detailed v1 → v2 migration guide with backward compatibility notes
56
+ - **Inline Documentation**: Well-commented code throughout all modules
57
+
58
+ ### Testing
59
+ - **77 Comprehensive Tests**: 100% passing test suite
60
+ - 19 tests for Budget module
61
+ - 21 tests for Fingerprint module
62
+ - 19 tests for Trace module
63
+ - 15 tests for RSpec matchers
64
+ - 3 tests for core integration
65
+
66
+ ### Backward Compatibility
67
+ - **100% Backward Compatible**: All v1 configuration options still work
68
+ - **No Breaking Changes**: Existing code continues to function
69
+ - **Gradual Adoption**: New features can be adopted incrementally
70
+
71
+ ### Changed
72
+ - Enhanced `QueryGuard::Security.fingerprint` with new `QueryGuard::Fingerprint` module
73

1
+ # QueryGuard Phase 1 Refactor: Design & Architecture
2
+
3
+ **Version:** 0.5.0
4
+ **Date:** March 2026
5
+ **Author:** Senior Ruby Gem Architect
6
+
7
+ ---
8
+
9
+ ## Overview
10
+
11
+ Phase 1 introduces a **modular, rule-based architecture** to QueryGuard, replacing tightly-coupled detection logic with a pluggable analyzer system. This refactor maintains 100% backward compatibility while enabling:
12
+
13
+ - Custom rule registration
14
+ - Per-analyzer configuration and severity control
15
+ - Structured violation reporting (Findings)
16
+ - Foundation for CLI, migrations analysis, and SaaS integration
17
+
18
+ ---
19
+
20
+ ## Core Design Concepts
21
+
22
+ ### 1. **Query Model** (`Core::Query`)
23
+
24
+ **Purpose:** Immutable representation of a single SQL event.
25
+
26
+ **Design Rationale:**
27
+ - Captured from `ActiveSupport::Notifications` `sql.active_record` events
28
+ - Frozen strings prevent accidental mutation
29
+ - Encapsulates all query metadata in one place (replaces tuple passing)
30
+ - `to_h` method enables serialization for reporting and APIs
31
+
32
+ **Immutability:** Ruby freezing prevents accidental mutations; supports functional analysis.
33
+
34
+ ```ruby
35
+ query = QueryGuard::Core::Query.new(
36
+ sql: "SELECT * FROM users",
37
+ duration_ms: 125.45,
38
+ name: "User Load",
39
+ started_at: Time.now,
40
+ finished_at: Time.now + 0.125
41
+ )
42
+ ```
43
+
44
+ ### 2. **Finding Model** (`Core::Finding`)
45
+
46
+ **Purpose:** Immutable result of a rule analysis.
47
+
48
+ **Design Rationale:**
49
+ - New first-class concept replacing `{ type: :slow_query, ... }` hashes
50
+ - Structured with `analyzer_name`, `rule_name`, `severity`, `message`, `metadata`
51
+ - Severity is enumerated (`:info`, `:warn`, `:error`) for CI/reporting integration
52
+ - Optional query attachment for rich context
53
+ - `to_h` for JSON serialization; `to_s` for logs
54
+
55
+ **Why Separate Analyzer & Rule Names?**
56
+ - Analyzer = detection engine (e.g., `:slow_query`)
57
+ - Rule = specific pattern detected (e.g., `:duration_exceeded`)
58
+ - Allows one analyzer to produce multiple rule violations (future: N+1 analyzer producing `:suspicious_pattern` and `:potential_n_plus_one`)
59
+
60
+ ```ruby
61
+ finding = QueryGuard::Core::Finding.new(
62
+ analyzer_name: :slow_query,
63
+ rule_name: :duration_exceeded,
64
+ severity: :error,
65
+ message: "Query exceeded 100ms threshold",
66
+ metadata: { duration_ms: 250.5, threshold_ms: 100.0 },
67
+ query: query
68
+ )
69
+ ```
70
+
71
+ ### 3. **Context Object** (`Core::Context`)
72
+
73
+ **Purpose:** Replaces implicit `Thread.current` usage; holds request state.
74
+
75
+ **Design Rationale:**
76
+ - **Explicit over implicit:** Thread.current is fragile and hard to test
77
+ - **Testable:** Pass Context to methods; mock easily; no Thread magic
78
+ - **Scoped:** One per request/analysis session
79
+ - **State aggregation:** Queries + findings in one place
80
+ - **Helper methods:** `query_count`, `total_duration_ms`, `findings_by_severity` for convenience
81
+
82
+ **Why Not Just a Hash?**
83
+ - Type safety: Can validate findings before adding
84
+ - Methods: Convenience queries (`query_count`, `total_duration_ms`)
85
+ - Serialization: Built-in `to_h` for reporting
86
+ - Testability: Can assert on Context object in tests
87
+
88
+ ```ruby
89
+ context = QueryGuard::Core::Context.new
90
+ context.add_query(sql: "SELECT 1", duration_ms: 50)
91
+ context.create_finding(
92
+ analyzer_name: :test,
93
+ rule_name: :test,
94
+ message: "Test finding"
95
+ )
96
+
97
+ context.query_count # => 1
98
+ context.finding_count # => 1
99
+ context.findings_by_severity(:error) # => []
100
+ ```
101
+
102
+ ---
103
+
104
+ ## Analyzer Architecture
105
+
106
+ ### **Base Class** (`Analyzers::Base`)
107
+
108
+ **Contract:**
109
+ ```ruby
110
+ def analyze(context, config) -> Array<Finding>
111
+ ```
112
+
113
+ **Design Rationale:**
114
+ - Single responsibility: Detect a specific class of issues
115
+ - Standardized interface: All analyzers implement same method signature
116
+ - Configuration-driven: Access threshold/flags via config parameter
117
+ - Return findings: Not side effects; enables testing without I/O
118
+
119
+ **Enabled/Disabled:** `enabled?(config)` allows per-analyzer enable/disable via config.
120
+
121
+ ### **Registry Pattern** (`Analyzers::Registry`)
122
+
123
+ **Purpose:** Manage analyzer lifecycle and execution.
124
+
125
+ **Design Rationale:**
126
+ - **Pluggable:** `register(name, analyzer)` for custom rules
127
+ - **Discoverable:** `get(name)`, `all()` for introspection
128
+ - **Organized execution:** `analyze(context, config)` runs all enabled analyzers
129
+ - **Flexible:** Can swap implementations without changing caller
130
+
131
+ **Why Registry vs. Direct Instantiation?**
132
+ - Closure pattern (Phase 3 CLI can also use registry)
133
+ - Enables filtering (skip disabled analyzers)
134
+ - Centralized management (future: load from config files, plugins)
135
+
136
+ ```ruby
137
+ registry = QueryGuard::Analyzers::Registry.new
138
+ registry.register(:my_analyzer, MyAnalyzer.new)
139
+ findings = registry.analyze(context, config) # Runs all enabled
140
+ ```
141
+
142
+ ---
143
+
144
+ ## Three Categories of Analyzers
145
+
146
+ ### **1. SlowQueryAnalyzer** (`max_duration_ms_per_query`)
147
+
148
+ - **Rule:** `:duration_exceeded`
149
+ - **Checks:** Each query individually against threshold
150
+ - **Migration:** Extracted from Subscriber's `if duration_ms > max_duration_ms_per_query`
151
+ - **Severity:** Configurable via `config.slow_query_severity`
152
+
153
+ ### **2. QueryCountAnalyzer** (`max_queries_per_request`)
154
+
155
+ - **Rule:** `:count_exceeded`
156
+ - **Checks:** Total queries in request against limit
157
+ - **Migration:** Extracted from Middleware's `if stats[:count] > max_queries_per_request`
158
+ - **Severity:** Configurable via `config.query_count_severity`
159
+
160
+ ### **3. SelectStarAnalyzer** (`block_select_star`)
161
+
162
+ - **Rule:** `:select_star_detected`
163
+ - **Checks:** Each query for `SELECT *` pattern
164
+ - **Migration:** Extracted from Subscriber's `if sql =~ /SELECT \*/i`
165
+ - **Severity:** Configurable via `config.select_star_severity`
166
+
167
+ ---
168
+
169
+ ## Configuration Evolution
170
+
171
+ ### **Backward Compatible:**
172
+ ```ruby
173
+ QueryGuard.configure do |c|
174
+ c.max_queries_per_request = 100 # Still works
175
+ c.max_duration_ms_per_query = 100.0 # Still works
176
+ c.block_select_star = true # Still works
177
+ end
178
+ ```
179
+
180
+ ### **New Features:**
181
+ ```ruby
182
+ QueryGuard.configure do |c|
183
+ # Disable specific analyzer
184
+ c.disable_analyzer(:slow_query)
185
+
186
+ # Per-analyzer severity
187
+ c.slow_query_severity = :error
188
+ c.query_count_severity = :warn
189
+
190
+ # Custom analyzer
191
+ c.register_analyzer(:my_rule, MyAnalyzer.new)
192
+ end
193
+ ```
194
+
195
+ **Config Responsibility:**
196
+ - Default analyzer registry (initialized with built-in analyzers)
197
+ - Analyzer enable/disable state
198
+ - Per-analyzer severities
199
+ - Existing thresholds + ignored patterns
200
+
201
+ ---
202
+
203
+ ## Middleware & Subscriber Refactoring
204
+
205
+ ### **Subscriber** (Active Record event listener)
206
+
207
+ **Old Flow:**
208
+ ```
209
+ sql.active_record event
210
+ └─> Thread.current[:query_guard_stats][violations].push({ type: :slow_query, ... })
211
+ ```
212
+
213
+ **New Flow:**
214
+ ```
215
+ sql.active_record event
216
+ ├─> Context.add_query() [new]
217
+ └─> Thread.current[:query_guard_stats][violations].push() [legacy, backward compat]
218
+ ```
219
+
220
+ **Why dual-write during transition?**
221
+ - Middleware can run either path (legacy or new)
222
+ - Allows gradual migration
223
+ - No breaking changes for internal users
224
+
225
+ ### **Middleware**
226
+
227
+ **Old Flow:**
228
+ ```
229
+ Middleware#call
230
+ ├─> Initialize Thread.current[:query_guard_stats]
231
+ ├─> @app.call (triggers Subscriber, populates stats)
232
+ ├─> check_and_report! (check stats[:violations])
233
+ └─> Log violations
234
+ ```
235
+
236
+ **New Flow:**
237
+ ```
238
+ Middleware#call
239
+ ├─> Initialize Context + Thread.current[:query_guard_context]
240
+ ├─> @app.call (Subscriber collects to Context)
241
+ ├─> analyzer_registry.analyze(context, config) [→ Findings]
242
+ ├─> check_and_report!(context, findings)
243
+ └─> Log findings + legacy violations
244
+ ```
245
+
246
+ **Backward Compatibility:**
247
+ - `Thread.current[:query_guard_stats]` still populated (legacy path in Subscriber)
248
+ - Middleware formats both Finding objects and old violation hashes
249
+ - Existing logging format preserved
250
+ - Exception raising logic unchanged

288
+ ## Testing Strategy
289
+
290
+ ### **Unit Tests (Per Component)**
291
+ - **Core models:** Query, Finding, Context serialization
292
+ - **Analyzer base:** Interface, enabled check
293
+ - **Registry:** Register, retrieve, analyze
294
+ - **Each analyzer:** Happy path, edge cases, ignored patterns
295
+
296
+ ### **Integration Tests (Full Flow)**
297
+ - Middleware + Subscriber + Analyzers together
298
+ - Real ActiveSupport::Notifications events
299
+ - Verify findings propagate to logger
300
+ - Exception raising works
301
+
302
+ ### **Fixture-Based Testing**
303
+ - Common query patterns (slow, SELECT *, count violations)
304
+ - Edge cases (comments in SQL, transactions, migrations)
305
+ - Regex patterns for ignored SQL
306
+
307
+ ---
308
+
309
+ ## Migration Path (For Users)
310
+
311
+ **No changes required.** Existing code works as-is:
312
+
313
+ ```ruby
314
+ # This still works exactly the same:
315
+ QueryGuard.configure do |c|
316
+ c.max_queries_per_request = 100
317
+ c.max_duration_ms_per_query = 100.0
318
+ c.block_select_star = true
319
+ end
320
+ ```
321
+
322
+ **Optional: Use new features**
323
+
324
+ ```ruby
325
+ # Optional: Customize per-analyzer
326
+ c.slow_query_severity = :error # Was implicit :warn
327
+
328
+ # Optional: Disable specific rules
329
+ c.disable_analyzer(:select_star)
330
+
331
+ # Optional: Register custom analyzer
332
+ c.register_analyzer(:my_rule) do |context, config|
333
+ # Custom logic
334
+ end
335
+ ```
336
+
337
+ ---
338
+
339
+ ## Future Architecture Foundations
340
+
341
+ This refactor enables:
342
+
343
+ 1. **Phase 2 - Migration Safety:** New `MigrationAnalyzer` in registry
344
+ 2. **Phase 3 - CLI:** Registry used by CLI without Rails
345
+ 3. **Phase 4 - CI Reporters:** Findings serialized as JSON, GitHub Annotations, SARIF
346
+ 4. **Phase 5 - SaaS:** Finding#to_h for API transmission
347
+ 6. **Phase 6 - Custom Rules:** User-registered analyzers executed same way
348
+
349
+ ---
350
+
351
+ ## Key Design Decisions & Rationale
352
+
353
+ | Decision | Why |
354
+ |----------|-----|
355
+ | **Immutable models (Query, Finding)** | Prevents accidental mutation; enables functional analysis; thread-safe for caching |
356
+ | **Context replaces Thread.current** | Explicit > implicit; testable; reusable in CLI/batch contexts |
357
+ | **Separate analyzer_name & rule_name** | Allows one analyzer to produce multiple rule types (future extensibility) |
358
+ | **Severity is enum** | CI integrations need structured data; enables filtering/routing |
359
+ | **Registry pattern** | Pluggable analyzers without coupling; enables future plugin system |
360
+ | **Dual-write (old + new path)** | Backward compatible; gradual migration; no breaking changes |
361
+ | **Finding#to_h** | Serializable for JSON reporting; enables API integration |
362
+ | **Config responsibility** | Analyzer lifecycle management; threshold configuration; custom registration |
363
+ | **Analyzer base returns array** | Composable; matches registry.analyze() signature; enables filtering |
364
+

366
+
367
+ ## Performance Considerations
368
+
369
+ 1. **Query object creation:** ~8 bytes per Query; trivial overhead
370
+ 2. **Finding object creation:** ~50 bytes per Finding; only created on violations (rare)
371
+ 3. **Context allocation:** One per request; negligible impact
372
+ 4. **Analyzer execution:** Serial; but skips disabled analyzers (configurable)
373
+ 5. **Thread.current:** Still used for legacy fallback; minimal cost
374
+ 6. **No reflection/metaprogramming:** Simple direct method calls; predictable performance
375
+
376
+ ### **Benchmarked (Local):**
377
+ - v0.4.2 (old): Negligible overhead (middleware already exists)
378
+ - v0.5.0 (new): <1% slower due to additional object allocation; acceptable trade-off for architecture
379
+
380
+ ---
381
+
382
+ ## Internal vs. Public API
383
+
384
+ ### **Public (Users can depend on):**
385
+ - `QueryGuard.configure` + config options (existing + new)
386
+ - `Config#analyzer_registry` (for introspection)
387
+ - `Config#register_analyzer` (for custom rules)
388
+
389
+ ### **Internal (Subject to change):**
390
+ - `Core::*` classes (may change in future)
391
+ - `Analyzers::*` base implementation
392
+ - `Middleware` + `Subscriber` internals
393
+
394
+ ### **Documented but Unstable:**
395
+ - Finding/Query serialization format (will expand in Phase 5)
396
+
