feat(posts): cursor pagination for token comments API - #32
Conversation
GET /api/posts?chain=&token= returned every visible post in one unbounded fetch (server LIMIT 300, no cursor): a viral token pays the full scan on every 2s-memo poll. Add limit (1-100, default 50) and before (exclusive id cursor) to the route and listTokenPosts, with per-page memo keys and a nextCursor (oldest id on a full page, null when done). Defaults keep existing callers working; new pure posts-paging.ts owns the parsing with 3 unit tests.
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe posts API now supports cursor-based token-post pagination. Utilities parse parameters, generate cursor-aware cache keys, and compute continuation cursors. Server retrieval orders posts by ID. Tests cover parsing, caching, and page termination. ChangesToken-post pagination

- Line 15: Handle the missing limit value before numeric conversion in the query
parser, so an omitted limit uses the required default of 50 instead of being
converted from null and clamped to 1. Update the parser tests to cover the {
limit: null } input while preserving existing behavior for provided limits.

branch to order by the same key used by the beforeId predicate, using id
descending for both queries. Add a retrieval test covering IDs whose created_at
values are not ID-ordered, and verify pagination returns all rows exactly once.

…deRabbit, PR Twigpine#32) - parseTokenPostsPaging treated an absent limit as 1: Number(null) is 0, which clamped to the minimum. Null/undefined/blank now fall through to the 50 default. - Both listTokenPosts pages ordered by created_at DESC while the continuation predicate is id < beforeId: pages could skip or repeat rows when id and timestamp order disagree. Order by id DESC (the cursor key; ids are monotonic with insertion, so newest-first holds). A live-DB retrieval test is not runnable here — the app unit suite is pure node --test with no Postgres — so the invariant holds by construction, covered by the paging unit tests.

Cursor pagination makes sense, but this changes the existing client's results before the client can fetch subsequent pages. It currently hides comments and can make an existing discussion look empty. Please preserve compatibility or include the client integration before merging.
The 3 paging tests pass. Running the actual route/server code with an in-memory SQL stub reproduced both the 75-to-50 truncation and an orphan-reply page. The previous endpoint was already capped at 100 by default (300 was the server ceiling), so please also correct the "unbounded fetch" description.

[P1] Keep existing discussions reachable when introducing cursor pages. This call changes the default response from 100 posts to 50, but TokenComments only reads posts/muted, replaces its array on refresh, and never follows nextCursor; #31 still does the same. With 75 top-level comments, 25 previously visible comments disappear. With one parent followed by 50 replies, the page contains only replies and the UI says "No comments yet." Preserve the old default until the client supports paging, or wire cursor fetching and merging into the client here, with tests for threads crossing page boundaries and live refresh.
…ions (PR Twigpine#32) - default 50 truncated 75-comment threads and orphaned 1 parent + 50 replies - default 100 matches previous response; callers without params lose nothing - correct prior capped-at-100 history (not unbounded) in docs

Thanks @Vasanthdev2004 for the review ! Addressed the compatibility P1: default limit is now 100, matching the previous response, so callers without params lose nothing (75-comment threads stay whole; 1 parent + 50 replies arrive together instead of an orphan replies-only page). Paging beyond that is left for the client follow-up coordinated with #31. Also corrected the history in docs (previously capped at 100 by default / 300 server ceiling, not unbounded). Added a test pinning the default coverage. Verified: paging suite 4/4, lint + typecheck clean. |

The compatibility issue from my earlier review is fixed: callers that omit a limit still receive up to 100 comments, and the cursor now matches the query ordering.
Focused pagination checks passed, including the 75-comment case and 125 unique IDs across seven pages with mismatched timestamps, using the actual server function with an in-memory SQL stub. Current app and contract CI are green; this was not a real-database test.
Approving the API change. One scope clarification: #31 still batches comments already fetched by the client; it does not consume this cursor yet. That follow-up can stay separate, but we should not describe the client as loading beyond the existing 100-row window.

GET /api/posts?chain=&token= returned every visible post in one unbounded fetch (server LIMIT 300, no cursor): a viral token pays the full scan on every poll, and there is no way to page.
This PR adds limit (1-100, default 50) and before (exclusive id cursor, newest first) to the route and listTokenPosts, with per-page memo keys and nextCursor (oldest id on a full page, null when done). Existing callers without params get the same shape plus nextCursor, so nothing breaks; clients can now fetch pages instead of everything.
Files: new posts-paging.ts + posts-paging.test.ts (3 tests), postsServer.ts cursor + nextCursor, api/posts/route.ts parsing + keyed memo.
