Summary

This pull request implements DERA Phase 8.3: Relationship & Dependency Diagnostics, establishing deterministic graph and topological intelligence within DERA's diagnostic engine.

Operating strictly in read-only static analysis over canonical schemas, ForeignKeyGraph multigraphs, and precomputed Phase 6.4 DependencyAnalysisResult models, Phase 8.3 audits relationship endpoints, composite foreign key mappings, cross-namespace coupling, circular dependencies (SCCs and self-loops), dependency chain depth, fan-in/fan-out concentration, and reverse reachability blast radiuses.

packages/core/src/dera/diagnostics/context.py, packages/core/src/dera/diagnostics/rules/shared/*, tests/diagnostics/test_graph_helpers.py, docs/audit/PHASE_8_3_RELATIONSHIP_BASELINE.md
Adds graph and dependency resolution, table lookup, bounded reverse reachability, and edge grouping helpers. Updates the diagnostic graph type and documents graph direction and analysis boundaries.
Relationship integrity rules
packages/core/src/dera/diagnostics/rules/relationships/{graph_integrity,unresolved_targets,composite_mappings,cross_namespace}.py, tests/diagnostics/test_relationship_rules.py, docs/diagnostics/*
Adds four relationship rules. Tests cover graph integrity, unresolved targets, composite mappings, and cross-namespace relationships.
Dependency analysis rules
packages/core/src/dera/diagnostics/rules/relationships/{cyclic_dependencies,dependency_depth,dependency_concentration,structural_impact}.py, tests/diagnostics/test_dependency_rules.py, docs/diagnostics/*
Adds four dependency rules for cycles, depth, concentration, and structural impact. Tests cover cycle types, configured thresholds, and dependent counts.
Rule registration and qualification
packages/core/src/dera/diagnostics/{__init__.py,rules/relationships/__init__.py}, tests/diagnostics/test_relationship_determinism.py, docs/audit/*, docs/diagnostics/*
Registers Phase 8.3 rules in the package catalogs and ALL_RULES. Adds permutation-based determinism tests and documents acceptance status, evidence, severity, testing, and analysis boundaries.

Merge Risk: Moderate · up to abf87

Relationship diagnostics can miss malformed graph data or return incomplete results, and advertised severities remain inconsistent. Resolve these issues before merging.

Security architecture risk: Low · up to abf87

The changes expand diagnostic capabilities without identifying new privileged operations or data writes. Downstream integrations remain outside the assessed scope.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

  • inferred — The demonstrated propagation scope is diagnostic behavior in the caller's process over its supplied metadata. Consumers explicitly evaluating ALL_RULES receive additional analysis and findings. Tenant, service, or environment exposure cannot be determined for external integrations.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

  • observed — Graph fallback resolves relationship targets within the supplied database metadata by object ID or namespace-and-name lookup, recording unresolved references when targets are unavailable. It does not fetch missing namespaces or request additional database access.

Hardening Proposals

  • proposed — For integrations accepting untrusted schema metadata, reuse precomputed graph and dependency results and apply a shared execution budget to fallback analysis. The current helpers construct fallback analyzers with their defaults rather than forwarding the caller's diagnostic limits; this is a containment proposal, not a verified denial-of-service finding.

Inline comments:
Review comments at @docs/diagnostics/DEPENDENCY_CONCENTRATION.md:
- Around line 7-8: Update the documentation for DependencyConcentrationRule to
match its behavior: change the default severity to INFORMATIONAL, the 2×
escalation severity to LOW, and the configurable threshold keys to max_fan_in
and max_fan_out. Apply the same corrections to the other noted severity entry.

Review comments at @docs/diagnostics/RELATIONSHIP_EVIDENCE.md:
- Around line 18-25: Update the `field_name` values in
`RELATIONSHIP_EVIDENCE.md` to match those emitted for `DERA-REL-001` through
`DERA-DEP-003`, including the `self_referential_fk` value for self-loops. Also
update the corresponding mismatch in `UNRESOLVED_RELATIONSHIPS.md` to reflect
the emitted value; leave unrelated evidence details unchanged.

Review comments at @docs/diagnostics/RELATIONSHIP_SEVERITY.md:
- Around line 8-14: Update the severity tables and escalation descriptions in
RELATIONSHIP_SEVERITY, UNRESOLVED_RELATIONSHIPS, DEPENDENCY_DEPTH, and
STRUCTURAL_IMPACT to match the implemented rules: DEP-002 starts INFORMATIONAL
and escalates to LOW at threshold + 3; DEP-003 and DEP-004 start INFORMATIONAL
and escalate to LOW at 2×, with no MEDIUM escalation. Document REL-002
REFERENCED_TABLE_NOT_FOUND as MEDIUM and include CRITICAL for the empty and
duplicate mappings emitted by REL-001 and REL-003.

Review comments at @docs/diagnostics/STRUCTURAL_IMPACT.md:
- Around line 15-17: Update the Evaluation & Guardrails description for
StructuralImpactRadiusRule to state that it reads the precomputed
metrics.transitive_dependent_count and does not perform bounded reverse
traversal. Remove claims that max_depth and max_nodes apply to this rule, and
align the related documentation and acceptance-audit wording with this behavior.

Review comments at
@packages/core/src/dera/diagnostics/rules/relationships/graph_integrity.py:
- Around line 162-163: In the relationship graph integrity column-pair
validation, detect pairs whose source or referenced column name is empty or
whitespace-only and emit the appropriate finding with field_name “column_pairs”
and error_kind “EMPTY_COLUMN_NAME.” Add a determinism or relationship test
asserting this case produces a finding.

Review comments at
@packages/core/src/dera/diagnostics/rules/shared/graph_helpers.py:
- Around line 40-43: Update resolve_graph to obtain the snapshot schema from an
attribute that SchemaSnapshot actually defines; verify the model before changing
the lookup, since the diff does not establish that schema_representation exists.
Preserve the existing database extraction behavior once the schema is found.

Review comments at
@packages/core/src/dera/diagnostics/rules/shared/index_signatures.py:
- Around line 169-171: Update the uniqueness guard using sig_narrow and sig_wide
so any unique narrow index is treated as non-redundant, regardless of whether
the wider index is unique. Add a test confirming UNIQUE (a) and UNIQUE (a, b)
produce PASS.

Outside diff Apply the documented severity mapping for DERA-DEP-002.

60-150: Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Apply the documented severity mapping for DERA-DEP-002.

When depth_level reaches max_depth, the finding must be LOW. When it reaches 2 * max_depth, the finding must be MEDIUM. The current mapping emits lower severities, which can lower the finding's user-facing priority.

Update the advertised default severity.

Both this rule and StructuralImpactRadiusRule now emit LOW at the baseline threshold, but their metadata still declares INFORMATIONAL. Registry consumers receive an incorrect default severity. Set both defaults to LOW. Also update the severity entries in docs/diagnostics/RELATIONSHIP_DIAGNOSTICS.md Lines 23–24. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

Update the threshold selection in the dependency concentration rule so
`max_dependency_degree` is the fallback for both fan-in and fan-out; keep
`max_fan_in` and `max_fan_out` as higher-precedence overrides and retain the
existing defaults when no thresholds are configured.
Outside diff Preserve expression text case in the shared signature.

76-77: Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Preserve expression text case in the shared signature.

The expression branch lowercases SQL literals. Two UNIQUE expression indexes with literals such as 'A' and 'a' can therefore receive the same signature even though they enforce different conditions. The duplicate or redundancy rules can then recommend removing one index.

Preserve the stripped expression text verbatim. This is a conservative localized fix and does not require a SQL parser.

Suggested fix
-                ident = str(term.expression).strip().lower()
+                ident = str(term.expression).strip()

Outside diff Expose canonical tables to the Phase 8.2 rules.

77-86: Major · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Expose canonical tables to the Phase 8.2 rules.

The supported diagnostic entrypoint passes SchemaRepresentation to the nine new constraint and index rules. The tables are stored under schema.database.all_tables(), but the rules read schema.tables. The missing attribute makes applicable rules return PASS without inspecting real tables. Add one shared projection and preserve the existing engine-specific NOT_APPLICABLE branches.

Suggested fix
     namespaces: tuple[CanonicalNamespace, ...] = Field(
         default_factory=tuple,

Outside diff Evaluate nonempty edge sets when the graph has no table nodes.

55-82: Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Evaluate nonempty edge sets when the graph has no table nodes.

ForeignKeyGraph permits edges without nodes, and resolve_graph() accepts such a graph through DiagnosticContext.graph. When graph.nodes is empty, this branch returns PASS before the edge loop. The rule therefore suppresses the documented missing-source finding and the missing-target finding when the edge has a referenced table ID.

Suggested fix
-if len(graph.nodes) == 0:
+if len(graph.nodes) == 0 and len(graph.edges) == 0:

Outside diff Use the documented LOW/MEDIUM depth severity thresholds.

60-150: Minor · Functional Correctness · Quick win

Use the documented LOW/MEDIUM depth severity thresholds.

When depth_level >= max_depth, the rule must return LOW. When depth_level >= max_depth * 2, it must return MEDIUM. The current sev expression returns INFORMATIONAL at the baseline and uses max_depth + 3, so diagnostic consumers receive incorrect severity values.

Suggested fix
-                sev = (
-                    DiagnosticSeverity.LOW
-                    if metrics.depth_level >= max_depth + 3
-                    else DiagnosticSeverity.INFORMATIONAL
