fix: skip lastOpen write when subscription was deleted mid-flight - #7627
Conversation
`updateLastOpen` reads the subscription, then awaits `db.write` before touching it. If the room is removed in that window (left/kicked/deleted, or a sync destroying the row), WatermelonDB's `__ensureCanSetRaw` invariant fires with "Not allowed to change deleted record subscriptions#<rid>", and the surrounding catch reports it through `log` as a user-visible diagnostic error. Re-check `syncStatus` inside the write, where the record state is freshest, and no-op instead. Nothing is lost: the row is going away.
Walkthrough
ChangesDeleted subscription update handling
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The fix prevents lastOpen writes to subscriptions deleted during the operation, avoiding a user-visible diagnostic error. It is mergeable with owner awareness because the regression test should model deletion after lookup and before the database write to ensure the race is actually covered.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Trigger deletion after lookup, not before the call.
subscription._raw._status = 'deleted' runs before updateLastOpen starts. The test therefore covers an already-deleted subscription, not deletion after getSubscriptionByRoomId resolves and before the db.write callback runs. Move the status transition to that boundary so the test fails if the guard moves outside the transaction.

Proposed changes
updateLastOpenreads the subscription, then awaitsdb.writebefore mutating it. If the room row disappears in that window (user left / was removed, room deleted, or a sync destroying the subscription), WatermelonDB's__ensureCanSetRawinvariant fires withNot allowed to change deleted record subscriptions#<rid>, and the surroundingcatchreports it throughlogas a user-visible diagnostic error.Confirmed hypothesis: benign delete-during-write race, not a corrupted cursor.
The fix re-checks
syncStatusinside the write, where the record state is freshest, and no-ops. Nothing is lost, the row is going away.Issue(s)

How to test or reproduce
TZ=UTC pnpm jest app/lib/methods/updateLastOpen.test.tsThe new case mocks a subscription that models
_raw._statusbehind asyncStatusgetter, mirroring WatermelonDB's realModelprototype getter, and flips it todeletedafter the read resolves. Itsupdatethrows the verbatim WatermelonDB invariant as a backstop, so a bypassed guard fails loudly. The case fails before the fix and passes after.Screenshots

Further comments
The record can also become un-writable via
_getChanges().isStopped, whichsyncStatusdoes not cover. Not observed in this report, so left alone rather than widened into a blanket swallow.Summary by CodeRabbit
