fix(api): refuse writes whose namespace was released while they waited - #380
A write authorizes against the namespace registry before it takes the mutation lock. A branch deletion can release a provisional namespace row in that gap. The write then lands an entity in a namespace that has no row, and the next writer of any owner claims that namespace and its entity.
Example: owner acme writes acme-orders on branch @acme:draft, which claims a provisional row. Next, acme starts a baseline PutEntity into acme-orders, and the authorization passes. Before the write gets the lock, DeleteBranch @acme:draft releases the row, because baseline is still empty. Before this change, the write then landed with no row.
Change
Add require_targets_still_registered. It reads the registry under the mutation lock and returns FAILED_PRECONDITION with a retry message when a target row is gone.
PutEntity, BatchMutate, RevertChangeset and ResolveBranchEntry call it first after they take the lock.
Dry runs and writes with no principal skip the check, because they never claim a row.
MergeBranch, source runs and artifact uploads already authorize under the lock, so they do not change.
DeleteNamespace (#377) relies on this check, because it removes rows under the same lock.
Tests
tests/namespace_release_race.rs pauses a baseline write after its authorization, deletes the branch, and then expects FAILED_PRECONDITION and no stored entity. It fails on main.
namespace_ownership, handler_tests, branching, changesets, branch_namespace_tenure, namespace_scope, dry_run_side_effects, authorization_freshness, message_claims_acceptance and artifact_namespace_authority pass. fmt and clippy -D warnings pass.
Note
Medium Risk
Touches core mutation paths and namespace ownership checks under the global lock; failures are explicit retries but behavior changes for concurrent branch/namespace lifecycle operations.
Overview
Fixes a race where writes authorize against the namespace registry before taking the mutation lock, so a branch delete or ownership change in between could let a write land in a namespace that no longer matches the prior authorization.
Adds require_targets_still_registered, which re-reads the registry under the lock and returns FAILED_PRECONDITION (with a retry hint) when a target namespace row is gone or a bound principal no longer has write access. PutEntity, BatchMutate, RevertChangeset, and ResolveBranchEntry call it immediately after acquiring the lock; dry runs and principal-less persists skip it. RevertChangeset also settle_not_applied on that refusal so the operation_id can be retried.
New integration tests in namespace_release_race.rs pause authorization, simulate release/adoption, and assert refusal with no landed data.

Persisted mutation paths now check that target namespaces remain registered after acquiring the mutation lock. A new integration test covers a branch deletion that releases a namespace while an authorized write is paused.

Post-lock checks and race regression test rsworkspace/crates/trogon-atlas-server/src/service.rs, rsworkspace/crates/trogon-atlas-server/tests/namespace_release_race.rs
Persisted writes in PutEntity, BatchMutate, RevertChangeset, and authorized ResolveBranchEntry now check namespace registration after acquiring the mutation lock. The integration test pauses an authorized write, deletes the branch that claimed the namespace, and verifies the write fails with FailedPrecondition without storing the entity.

Merge Risk: Moderate · previous review c5f10
The fix closes the main release race, but two gaps remain. For legacy-named namespaces, a write authorized before a release and re-adoption could land in another owner's namespace. A rejected revert with an operation id also blocks retries with the same id for days. Both should be fixed before merging.

A rabbit checks the namespace gate, Then waits until the lock is straight. A branch lets go; the write steps back, No entity slips through the crack. The carrot stays, the race is done.
After the namespace row is removed, this owner-scoped get_entity can return NOT_FOUND from require_visible without reading the entity. The assertion therefore cannot distinguish an absent entity from a stored entity hidden by the missing registry row.
Use store.get with the exact entity ID and assert StoreError::NotFound. Keep the separate FAILED_PRECONDITION assertion.

- Line 9951: In the RevertChangeset path, handle the released-namespace
rejection explicitly instead of propagating it with `?`; call
`settle_not_applied` for the claimed `operation_id` before returning the error.
Preserve the existing rejection behavior and follow the adjacent
protection-refusal cleanup pattern so the claim remains retryable.
- Line 2352: Update require_targets_still_registered to compare each namespace
row’s parent with the owner that authorized the write, not merely check that the
row exists; reject the write when they differ, including when a legacy-named
namespace has been adopted by another owner.
