Proposed changes

updateLastOpen reads the subscription, then awaits db.write before mutating it. If the room row disappears in that window (user left / was removed, room deleted, or a sync destroying the subscription), 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.

Confirmed hypothesis: benign delete-during-write race, not a corrupted cursor.

The fix re-checks syncStatus inside the write, where the record state is freshest, and no-ops. Nothing is lost, the row is going away.

N/A

How to test or reproduce

TZ=UTC pnpm jest app/lib/methods/updateLastOpen.test.ts

The new case mocks a subscription that models _raw._status behind a syncStatus getter, mirroring WatermelonDB's real Model prototype getter, and flips it to deleted after the read resolves. Its update throws the verbatim WatermelonDB invariant as a backstop, so a bypassed guard fails loudly. The case fails before the fix and passes after.

Checklist

  • I have read the CONTRIBUTING doc
  • I have added tests that prove my fix is effective or that my feature works

Further comments

The record can also become un-writable via _getChanges().isStopped, which syncStatus does not cover. Not observed in this report, so left alone rather than widened into a blanket swallow.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Prevented deleted subscriptions from being updated with a new “last opened” timestamp.
    • Improved handling of subscriptions removed between being read and updated, avoiding unnecessary errors or log messages.
  • Tests

    • Added coverage for deleted-subscription scenarios to verify timestamps remain unchanged.

`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.

Review Change Stack

Walkthrough

updateLastOpen now skips writes when a subscription becomes deleted during processing. Tests model the deleted state and verify that the method leaves lastOpen unchanged without logging.

Changes

Deleted subscription update handling

Layer / File(s) Summary
Guard deleted subscription writes
app/lib/methods/updateLastOpen.ts, app/lib/methods/updateLastOpen.test.ts
The write transaction returns early when syncStatus is 'deleted'. The test fixture rejects updates for deleted subscriptions.
Verify silent skip behavior
app/lib/methods/updateLastOpen.test.ts
The test verifies no subscription update, cursor change, or logger call after deletion between retrieval and persistence.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to ae051

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.

Add an explicit return type to makeSubscription.

Define a fixture interface and annotate the helper return type. This keeps changes to _raw, syncStatus, and update type-checked.

As per coding guidelines: **/*.{ts,tsx}: Use TypeScript for type safety; add explicit type annotations to function parameters and return types.

🎯 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.
