Scope the in-writer permissions read to the ids the payload touches, move the cursor read into the branch that uses it, and reuse createWriterLock in the test instead of a hand-rolled queue.

ChangesPermission synchronization
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to The permission sync now serializes read/decide/write behavior and deduplicates repeated records, addressing the reported uniqueness failures. The remaining return-type cleanup is non-blocking, so no actionable merge-blocking risk remains after normal checks and review. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Learning: In TypeScript test files, do not require explicit return-type annotations on `it()` callbacks when the surrounding test suite omits them. Also, do not require explicit parameter types when TypeScript correctly infers them from a typed mocked function signature, such as `UserPreferences.getString`.

Proposed changes
getPermissionsfetched the existing permission records before awaiting the server response, then decided outside any write transaction which ids neededprepareCreate. Two concurrent runs could each read an empty (or stale) set, both conclude the same id was missing, and both try to insert it, producing:Two independent causes, both fixed:
query().fetch()that decides create-vs-update now runs insidedb.write. WatermelonDB serializes writers through itsWorkQueue, so a second run observes the rows the first one inserted and emits updates instead of duplicate creates._id.permissions.listAllcan return the same_idmore than once in oneupdatearray, which produced twoprepareCreateops in the same batch. The update list is now deduplicated by_id, keeping the last entry (newest-wins, matching sync semantics).The
allRecordsparameter was dropped fromupdatePermissionssince it now reads its own snapshot inside the transaction.getPermissionsstill fetchesallRecordsforgetUpdatedSince, which is unchanged.The filter/
findscans were replaced with aMaplookup while restructuring, turning the O(n·m) diff into O(n).Note this is collision tolerance, not collision avoidance: two concurrent runs can still compute the same
updatedSinceand fetch overlapping payloads. The write-scoped read absorbs that harmlessly.Issue(s)
No tracker issue.
How to test or reproduce
Covered by the new unit tests in
app/lib/methods/getPermissions.test.ts:getPermissions()calls against an empty database_idremoveandupdate(destroy then recreate, so the update wins)Run with
TZ=UTC npx jest app/lib/methods/getPermissions.test.ts. The first two tests fail against the pre-fix code with the real 1555 message and pass after; the other three pass on both sides as state guards.Screenshots

Further comments
The tests mock
database.activewith an in-memory double rather than using LokiJS, because the bug depends on WatermelonDB's writer serialization and on SQLite's UNIQUE constraint — the mock reproduces both (writechains onto a queue;batchthrows 1555 on a duplicate id and applies operations in array order).One consequence of the restructure worth calling out: an id appearing in both
removeandupdateis now destroyed and recreated, rather than being prepared twice. SincelistAllreturns both arrays from the same window, theupdateentry carries current server state and should win — which is what this produces.Summary by CodeRabbit
