Ticket

forgejo_admin/pal-e-api#252 — Add partial indexes for mermaid blocks and architecture notes
Board item: #944 on board-pal-e-docs
PR: #253 (merged)
Shipped: Two partial indexes — ix_blocks_block_type_mermaid on blocks table and ix_notes_note_type_architecture on notes table — to speed up filtered queries.

Environment

Prod cluster (archbox), namespace pal-e-docs. Database: paledocs on pal-e-postgres-1 in namespace postgres.

Verdict

PARTIAL — PR merged successfully, pod is healthy, but the alembic migration has not been applied to production. The two partial indexes (ix_blocks_block_type_mermaid, ix_notes_note_type_architecture) do not exist yet. Needs alembic upgrade head run against prod database.

Discovered Issues

  • Pod image is 14 days old (tag 89f663bb...). The deployment may not have been updated after PR #253 merged. Verify CI built and pushed the new image, and that ArgoCD/kustomize picked up the new tag.
  • Migration alembic upgrade head needs to be run on prod — either via a job or manual exec into the pod.
