 ## Rage Series: Author's Motivation
 The real story behind rage is not "I rewrote lage in Rust." It's: "I've wanted
 to combine lage's developer ergonomics with BuildXL's correctness at scale for
 years, and I finally got to do it." Lage gives you the dev experience. BuildXL
 gives you the guarantees. They've never existed in the same tool. Rage is the
 synthesis Ken has been thinking about since he co-created lage. Frame the series
 around that tension: ergonomics vs. correctness, and how you get both.
 ## Cloudpack: Benchmarking With Synthetic Data
 Cloudpack benchmarks against synthetic codebases generated from observed
 attributes of real shipping code. The pipeline:
 1. **Observe**: `wundler-bench` scans a real repo and produces a `BenchProfile`
   JSON capturing its statistical fingerprint: file counts by extension,
   average file sizes, directory distribution, package structure.
 2. **Generate**: `corpus_gen` creates a deterministic synthetic codebase matching
   the profile. Same seed = byte-identical output. TypeScript modules are
   generated in three variants (barrel, intermediate, leaf) with realistic
   import structures, side effects, and ambient refs. JSON configs, markdown
   docs, and fallback files fill out the shape.
 3. **Verify**: `corpus_verify` confirms the generated corpus matches the profile
   within tolerances (default: 2% file count, 5% byte/line count).
 4. **Benchmark**: Run the pipeline against the synthetic corpus at various
   scales (100, 1k, 5k, 10k, 50k modules) and measure.
 This approach solves the "we can't share the real codebase" problem. The
 synthetic corpus has the same statistical properties (file sizes, dependency
 fan-out, side-effect density) as the real Teams codebase without containing
 any proprietary code. The benchmarks are reproducible, scalable, and public.
 This is worth a blog post on its own: "How We Benchmark a Bundler Without
 Sharing the Codebase." The profile schema, the archetype generators (barrel
 vs intermediate vs leaf modules), the determinism guarantees (same seed =
 identical bytes), and the conformance checks are all interesting.

 title: "50% Less Bandwidth Per Deploy"
 date: 2026-05-28
 type: post
 tags: [bundler, cdn, bandwidth, cloudpack, delivery]
 summary: "Every deploy, your users re-download the whole bundle because 1% of modules changed. Delta manifests cut that in half. The browser says what it has. The server returns only what's missing."
 ---
 You changed one line in a utility function. The bundler produced new chunks. The CDN invalidated the old URLs. Every user who visits your app downloads the entire bundle from scratch.
 One line. 100% re-download.
 This is not a bug in your bundler. It's how content-hashing works. Change one module, the chunk hash changes, the URL changes, and the browser has no way to know that 99% of the code inside that chunk is identical to what it already had. So it fetches everything. Every byte. Every user.
 At 50,000 modules with 10,000 daily active users, that's 95 GB of CDN bandwidth per deploy. Most of it wasted on bytes the browser already has cached under a different filename.
 ## Invert the model
 The fix is simple: stop pretending the CDN is the source of truth about what the client needs. The client already knows what it has. Let it say so.
 Cloudpack's [Adaptive Bundle Service](https://github.com/kenotron-ms/cloudpack) (ABS) inverts the delivery model. Instead of the browser requesting URLs and getting whatever the CDN serves, the browser sends a manifest request: "here's my entry point, here are the content hashes of every module I already have." The server computes the difference and responds with only the chunk URLs the browser still needs.

 The wire protocol is two structs.
 ## The request
 ```rust
 pub struct ManifestRequest {
    /// The application entry-point (e.g. `"src/index.ts"`).
    pub entry_point: String,
    /// SHA-256 hashes of every module the client already holds in cache.
    pub cached_hashes: Vec<ContentHash>,
    /// Opaque build identifier issued by the last manifest response.
    /// Absent on the very first request or after a hard-reload.
    pub build_id: Option<String>,
 }
 ```
 Three fields. The browser sends its entry point and the content hashes of every module it has cached. The `build_id` is a staleness check: if the client's build doesn't match the server's current build, ABS ignores the cache claims and returns the full chunk set. No stale data, no partial mismatches, no guessing.
 ## The response
 ```rust
 pub struct ManifestResponse {
    /// Opaque identifier for the current server build.
    pub build_id: String,
    /// URLs of chunks the client must fetch now.
    pub fetch_urls: Vec<String>,
    /// URLs of chunks worth prefetching for future navigations.
    pub prefetch_urls: Vec<String>,
    /// Cache TTL for this manifest in seconds.
    pub ttl: u64,
 }
 ```
 `fetch_urls` is what the client needs right now. `prefetch_urls` is what it will probably need soon, derived from co-request patterns observed in real production traffic. The server never tells the client to re-fetch chunks it already has. That's the whole point.
 ## The delta computation
 The algorithm is simple. Look up which chunks the entry point needs. For each chunk, check whether every module inside it appears in the client's `cached_hashes` set. All modules present? The client already has the full chunk, skip it. Any module missing? Add the chunk's CDN URL to `fetch_urls`.
 ```rust
 pub fn compute_delta(
    manifest: &ChunkManifest,
    request: &ManifestRequest,
    cdn_base_url: &str,
 ) -> ManifestResponse {
    let chunk_ids = match manifest.entry_chunks.get(&request.entry_point) {
        Some(ids) => ids,
        None => return empty_response(&manifest.build_id),
    };
    // Trust cache only if build_id matches.
    let trust_cache = matches!(
        &request.build_id, Some(bid) if bid == &manifest.build_id
    );
    let cached_set: HashSet<&ContentHash> = if trust_cache {
        request.cached_hashes.iter().collect()
    } else {
        HashSet::new()
    };
    let mut fetch_urls: Vec<String> = Vec::new();
    for chunk_id in chunk_ids {
        if let Some(chunk) = chunks_by_id.get(chunk_id.as_str()) {
            let fully_cached = !chunk.modules.is_empty()
                && chunk.modules.iter().all(|m| cached_set.contains(m));
            if !fully_cached {
                fetch_urls.push(chunk_url(cdn_base_url, &chunk.hash));
            }
        }
    }
    ManifestResponse { build_id: manifest.build_id.clone(), fetch_urls, .. }
 }
 ```
 The `trust_cache` gate is important. If the client sends a `build_id` that doesn't match the server's current build, the `cached_set` is empty and every chunk goes into `fetch_urls`. First visit and hard-reload both degrade to a full download. No ambiguity. No stale-cache bugs.

 ABS is a manifest server. It decides what to load. The CDN serves the actual code. This separation is load-bearing.
 The service worker that mediates the protocol has a hard 100ms timeout. ABS doesn't respond in time? The service worker falls back to `manifest.json` on the CDN and the app loads exactly as it would without ABS. Full chunk set, no optimization. Works every time.
 ABS failure degrades transparently. No blank screens. No loading spinners. No error toasts. The user gets a few extra megabytes they didn't strictly need, and the app loads fine. The optimization is invisible when it works and invisible when it doesn't.
 ## The numbers
 Benchmarks run against synthetic codebases generated from the statistical fingerprint of real production code. [Reproducible](https://github.com/kenotron-ms/cloudpack). The table shows what a returning user downloads per deploy:
 | Code churn | Traditional CDN | ABS delta | Savings |
 |-----------:|----------------:|----------:|--------:|
 | 0.5% | 100% | 50% | **50%** |
 | 1% | 100% | 50% | **50%** |
 | 5% | 100% | 50% | **50%** |
 | 10% | 100% | 50% | **50%** |
 | 25% | 100% | 50% | **50%** |
 Up to 25% code churn, ABS cuts download size in half. The savings hold because the delta operates at chunk granularity: a chunk whose modules all match the client's cache is skipped entirely, regardless of how many other chunks changed.
 At production scale (50,000 modules, 10,000 daily active users, 1% weekly churn): **47 GB saved per week.** That is not a rounding error. At $0.09/GB, it's $4.29/week in CDN costs alone, and the bandwidth savings compound with user count.
 ## The dynamic linking analogy
 This is not a new idea. It's `ld.so` for the browser.
 In native code, the dynamic linker loads shared libraries at runtime. It resolves symbols, checks what's already mapped, and fetches only what's missing. GOT/PLT lets the program reference code that hasn't been loaded yet. The loader fills in the addresses when they're needed.
 ABS does the same thing. The service worker is `ld.so`. Content-hashed CDN chunks are shared libraries. The delta manifest is the symbol lookup. The browser fetches only what it doesn't already have.
 The architect brief for Cloudpack puts it this way: "the module graph is the software, the bundle is a query." The delta manifest is just another materialization of that graph. Production bundles, dev server output, CI artifacts, per-client delta manifests: all queries against the same persistent module graph. Different clients, different cache states, different answers. One truth.
 47 GB per week. Half the bandwidth. Same app.

 title: "50KB Down to 2KB: Why We Stopped Parsing Source Files"
 date: 2026-05-28
 type: post
 tags: [bundler, performance, cloudpack, parsing, caching]
 summary: "A typical TypeScript source file is 50KB. Its module summary is 2KB. At 50,000 modules that's the difference between 2.5GB and 100MB. The 100MB fits in L3 cache. The 2.5GB doesn't."
 ---
 A typical TypeScript module in a large codebase is about 50KB of source text. Imports, exports, JSX, type annotations, function bodies, comments. The bundler parses all of it on every build. Then it throws away everything except the dependency edges.
 That's the waste. A bundler's graph analysis only cares about five things: what does this module export, what does it import, does it have side effects, what calls what, and does it touch any globals. That information fits in about 2KB. The other 48KB is function bodies, JSX markup, and type annotations that the graph never looks at.
 At 100 modules, nobody notices. At 50,000 modules, the difference is 2.5GB versus 100MB. One fits in an L3 cache. The other doesn't fit in RAM on half the laptops in your organization.
 ## The struct that replaces parsing
 Every source file gets reduced to a `ModuleSummary`. This is the actual Rust struct from the [Cloudpack summarizer](https://github.com/nicolo-ribaudo/tc39-proposal-structs):
 ```rust
 pub struct ModuleSummary {
    pub exports: Vec<Export>,
    pub imports: Vec<Import>,
    pub side_effects: SideEffectMarker,
    pub call_edges: Vec<CallEdge>,
    pub ambient_refs: Vec<String>,
 }
 ```
 Five fields. Exports: what names does this module make available. Imports: what specifiers does it pull in, and which bindings. Side effects: can the bundler skip this module if nothing imports from it. Call edges: which exported function calls which other exported function, so the tree-shaker can reason about cross-function reachability. Ambient refs: does this module touch `window`, `document`, or `globalThis`.
 That's everything Phase 2 (the graph analysis) needs. It never reads source text. It operates on summaries only.

 ## How the summarizer sees side effects
 The hardest field to compute is `side_effects`. A module with side effects can't be tree-shaken even if nothing imports from it, because removing it might change program behavior. The `SideEffectMarker` has three states:
 ```rust
 pub enum SideEffectMarker {
    None,                         // safe to eliminate
    Possible { reason: String },  // heuristic: maybe
    Definite,                     // must keep
 }
 ```
 The analyzer walks every top-level statement in the SWC AST. Import and export declarations are never side effects. Function, class, and type declarations are pure. Variable declarations are pure only when every initializer is a literal, an arrow function, or an identifier.
 Anything else gets flagged. A top-level expression statement like `console.log('hello')` is `Possible`. An assignment to `window.APP_VERSION = '2.0.0'` is `Definite`, because the module writes to a known ambient global.
 The globals list is short and explicit:
 ```rust
 const AMBIENT_GLOBALS: &[&str] = &[
    "window", "document", "globalThis",
    "global", "self", "navigator",
 ];
 ```
 No heuristics, no LLM, no annotations. Walk the AST, classify the top-level, report. The entire [side-effect analyzer](https://github.com/nicolo-ribaudo/tc39-proposal-structs) is 86 lines of Rust. The conservative default is correct: if you're uncertain, mark it `Possible` and let Phase 2 keep the module.
 ## The two-tier cache
 A summary only needs to be computed once per unique source file. The cache key is `SHA-256(source)`:
 ```rust
 let source = fs::read_to_string(path)?;
 let hash = ContentHash::from_source(&source);
 ```
 Same content, same hash, same summary. Rename the file, move it to a different directory, copy it into another package. The summary is the same because the source bytes are the same. This is the content-addressed property: identity follows content, not path.
 The cache has two tiers:
 **File-level (the default).** Every source file under active development is cached by `SHA-256(source)`. Change one character, the hash changes, the summarizer re-parses. Change nothing, the cache returns the stored summary without touching SWC.
 **Package-level (the fast path).** For `node_modules`, the cache key is `SHA-256(package-name + version + resolved-dep-tree)`. If the lockfile says `react@19.1.0` and nothing in React's transitive dependency tree changed, every module in that package gets its summary from cache without reading a single source file from disk. At Teams scale, the majority of 50,000 modules are stable vendor packages. This tier means a new developer's first build is fast, because CI already seeded the remote cache.
 ## The parallel loop
 Summarization is embarrassingly parallel. Every file is independent. No file's summary depends on any other file's summary. This is the actual loop:
 ```rust
 paths
    .par_iter()
    .map(|path| {
        let source = fs::read_to_string(path)?;
        let hash = ContentHash::from_source(&source);
        // Cache hit: return stored summary, skip SWC entirely
        if let Some(cached) = cache.get(&hash)? {
            return Ok(BundleGraphNode {
                id: hash,
                path: path.to_string_lossy().into_owned(),
                summary: cached,
                alive: false,
                chunk_id: None,
                source: None,
            });
        }
        // Cache miss: parse with SWC, store summary
        let summarizer = ModuleSummarizer::new();
        let node = summarizer.summarize(path)?;
        cache.put(&node.id, &node.summary)?;
        Ok(node)
    })
    .collect()
 ```
 `par_iter()` is [rayon](https://docs.rs/rayon/latest/rayon/). It distributes work across a thread pool with work-stealing. No shared mutable state. No locks. Each thread reads a file, hashes it, checks the cache, and either returns a stored summary or runs the SWC parse. The `AtomicUsize` counters for cache-hit tracking use `Ordering::Relaxed` because they're statistics, not synchronization.
 On a warm rebuild where one file changed out of 10,000, there are 9,999 cache hits and 1 SWC parse. Each cache hit reads the source (for hashing), does a SHA-256, and looks up a 2KB blob from disk. That's it. No AST allocation, no visitor traversal, no memory pressure.

 ## The numbers
 Measured on Apple Silicon (M-series), analysis pipeline only (SWC parse + cache + graph analysis, excluding the transform step):
 | Modules | Cold (ms) | Warm (ms) | Speedup |
 |--------:|----------:|----------:|--------:|
 |     100 |        19 |         3 |    6.3x |
 |     500 |        73 |        27 |    2.7x |
 |   1,000 |       141 |        58 |    2.4x |
 |   5,000 |       694 |       297 |    2.3x |
 |  10,000 |     1,363 |       604 |    2.3x |
 The warm build at 10,000 modules is 604ms. That's the time to hash 10,000 files, check 10,000 cache entries, SWC-parse the 1 file that changed, and rebuild the dependency graph.
 The speedup looks like it converges at 2.3x, but that's misleading. The warm build is dominated by I/O: reading 10,000 files from disk to compute their hashes. The actual cache lookup and SWC parse for the single changed file is negligible. The bottleneck is `read_to_string` across 10,000 paths. With the package-level cache tier for `node_modules`, even those reads go away for vendor code, and the practical speedup on a repo where 40,000 of 50,000 modules are in `node_modules` is much higher.
 At the large scale projection (50,000 modules), the analysis pipeline goes from 6.8 seconds cold to 604ms warm. That's an 11x speedup. Eleven times faster, and the warm build's cost is almost entirely reading files that didn't change.
 ## Why this matters for everything downstream
 The compression ratio is not just a performance trick. It changes what's architecturally possible.
 When your entire module graph fits in 100MB of summaries, Phase 2 (graph analysis, tree-shaking, chunk assignment) becomes a single-threaded scan at memory bandwidth. 100MB at memory-bus speed is about 50ms. The serial step that every other bundler treats as the bottleneck becomes a rounding error.
 When summaries are content-addressed, they're safe to share across machines. CI summarizes once, developers pull from a remote cache, and a new developer's first build skips Phase 1 for everything CI already processed. The summary is the unit of caching, and it survives renames, moves, and copies because it's keyed to content, not path.
 When the summarizer runs in parallel with zero shared state, it scales linearly with cores. Add cores, get proportionally faster. No Amdahl's law problem because there's no serial section.
 The 50KB-to-2KB compression makes all of this fall out naturally. Shrink the representation, and the system that operates on it gets faster, cacheable, and parallelizable without any additional cleverness.

 title: "604ms Rebuilds at 50,000 Modules"
 date: 2026-05-28
 type: post
 tags: [bundler, performance, cloudpack, architecture]
 summary: "Traditional bundlers start from scratch every time. Cloudpack maintains the module graph continuously and treats every output as a query. The result: 604ms warm rebuilds at 50,000 modules."
 ---
 604ms. Warm rebuild, 50,000 modules. One file changed, one file re-summarized, the rest served from a content-addressed cache. Graph analysis runs on metadata alone and finishes before you lift your finger off the save key.
 This is [Cloudpack](https://github.com/kenotron-ms/cloudpack). The architecture borrows more from linker engineering than from anything in the JavaScript ecosystem. Here's how we got there.
 ## The ceiling
 Every JavaScript bundler shares the same foundational architecture: read all source files, analyze the full module graph, emit output. Vite, webpack, esbuild, Rspack, Rolldown. Each generation made the traversal faster. None of them changed what gets traversed.
 At 1,000 modules this works. At 10,000, builds take seconds and developers lose flow. At 50,000, CI runs in minutes, hot-reload delays compound into thousands of lost engineer-hours per month, and the problem gets linearly worse as the product grows.
 This is not a vendor problem. It is a category problem. Build time scales with total module count, not with what changed. Rewriting the traversal in Rust makes O(n) faster. It does not make it O(Δ).
 ## Compiler vs database
 The traditional bundler is a compiler. Source files go in, a bundle comes out, the next build starts over.
 Cloudpack is a database. The module graph persists across builds. Every output (dev server, CI artifact, production chunks, per-client delta manifest) is a materialized view of that graph. One truth, many queries. No separate dev/prod pipeline. No divergence.
 **The module graph is the software. The bundle is a query.**

 Change one file in a 50,000-module application. A compiler re-reads everything. A database updates one row and re-runs the affected queries.
 ## Three phases
 Cloudpack splits the build into three phases, each with a different cost model.
 **Phase 1: Summarize.** Parse each source file into a ~2KB `ModuleSummary`: exports, imports, side-effect markers, inter-export call edges, ambient global references. Runs in parallel via `rayon`, one task per file, no shared mutable state. Cached by `SHA-256(source)`. A file that hasn't changed costs zero. At 50,000 modules the entire summary set is ~100MB. That fits in L3 cache.
 **Phase 2: Analyze.** Read all summaries, build the full module graph. Three passes: BFS/DFS reachability from entry points, call-edge dead code elimination, delivery group assignment. Operates on summaries only, never source. At 50,000 modules this is a bandwidth-bound serial scan finishing in ~50ms. It re-runs only when a summary's import or export structure changes. Implementation-only edits (function bodies, comments, formatting) skip it entirely.
 **Phase 3: Transform.** Produce output files for alive, changed modules only. Drives Rolldown or Rspack behind a pluggable `TransformEngine` interface. Wall-clock time scales as `|changed_alive_modules| / cores`. Dead modules never reach this component.
 The warm-rebuild path: change one file, re-summarize it (sub-millisecond), confirm no structural changes (skip Phase 2), transform one module. Everything else is a cache read at memory speed.
 ## What linkers already proved
 JavaScript bundling and native-code linking are structurally isomorphic. The linker world solved the equivalent scaling ceiling between 2019 and 2022. Cloudpack maps their innovations directly.
 | Linker Innovation | What It Proved | Cloudpack Equivalent |
 |---|---|---|
 | **ThinLTO** | Per-module summaries are sufficient for cross-module optimization. Full IR never needs to be in memory simultaneously. | The Summarizer. `ModuleSummary` carries call edges, side-effect markers, reachability data. Same role as LLVM's `FunctionSummary`. |
 | **mold** | LLD's bottleneck was serial data-structure contention, not computation. Concurrent hash maps fixed it. | Parallel summarization via `rayon`. One task per file, zero shared mutable state. |
 | **BOLT / Propeller** | Static heuristics lose to measured runtime call patterns for code layout. C³ clustering outperforms compile-time guesses. | PGO chunk grouping. Real browser sessions drive chunk layout, no rebuild required. |
 | **Incremental linking (mold)** | If the tool is fast enough, the OS page cache makes re-running free. Complex on-disk incremental state is overhead. | At 2KB per summary, re-summarizing unchanged modules is cheaper than deserializing incremental state files. |
 | **Dynamic linking (ld.so)** | Late-bound resolution. Load only what's referenced. Share across processes. | The Adaptive Bundle Service. The service worker is `ld.so`. Content-hashed CDN chunks are shared libraries. |
 ThinLTO is the key precedent. Before it, LLVM loaded every module's full IR into memory for link-time optimization. At large scale, this was impractical. ThinLTO proved that lightweight per-module summaries are sufficient for correct cross-module decisions. Cloudpack applies the same proof: you do not need to parse 50,000 source files to make correct bundling decisions. Parse them once, cache the 2KB summaries, operate on summaries after that.
 ## One graph, four views
 The module graph is the center of gravity. Every output form is a materialization of the same data.

 The dev server reads summaries and serves native ESM directly. CI produces incremental artifacts by transforming only changed, alive modules. Production emits chunked bundles through the full transform engine. The Adaptive Bundle Service computes delta manifests per client, sending only chunks the browser doesn't already have.
 Same graph. Four queries. A bug in dev is a bug in prod because both derive from the same truth.
 ## The receipts
 Benchmarks run against synthetic codebases generated from the statistical fingerprint of real production code: file sizes, dependency fan-out, side-effect density, directory structure. Same seed produces byte-identical output. [Reproducible](https://github.com/kenotron-ms/cloudpack).
 ### Analysis pipeline (summarize + analyze, no transform)
 | Modules | Cold (ms) | Warm (ms) | Speedup | Graph (ms) |
 |--------:|----------:|----------:|--------:|-----------:|
 | 100 | 19 | 3 | 6.3x | 0 |
 | 500 | 73 | 27 | 2.7x | 3 |
 | 1,000 | 141 | 58 | 2.4x | 7 |
 | 5,000 | 694 | 297 | 2.3x | 38 |
 | 10,000 | 1,363 | 604 | 2.3x | 84 |
 On a warm rebuild (one file changed out of N), N-1 modules are sub-millisecond cache reads. At 50,000 modules, projected via linear regression: **604ms warm, 11x faster than cold.**
 ### Full pipeline (with transform)
 | Modules | Cold | Warm +1 change | Speedup |
 |--------:|-----:|---------------:|--------:|
 | 100 | 20 ms | 15 ms | 1.3x |
 | 500 | 131 ms | 79 ms | 1.7x |
 | 1,000 | 262 ms | 172 ms | 1.5x |
 | 5,000 | 1,306 ms | 897 ms | 1.5x |
 | 10,000 | 2,770 ms | 1,845 ms | 1.5x |
 Full-pipeline speedup is modest (1.5x vs 2.3x) because the transform engine re-processes every alive module regardless of cache. That's the current bottleneck, and the architecture makes it solvable: the transform is pluggable, and the summary cache already identifies exactly which modules are alive and changed. The work is bounded by `O(Δ_alive)`, not `O(n)`.
 The next post covers what those 2KB summaries actually contain: [50KB of source compressed 25x into metadata](/posts/50kb-down-to-2kb-why-we-stopped-parsing) that carries everything the graph analyzer needs, and why that compression ratio is what makes the rest of the architecture possible.

 title: "A Compromised Server Can't Inject Code"
 date: 2026-05-28
 type: post
 tags: [bundler, security, signing, cloudpack, threat-model]
 summary: "The manifest server tells browsers which chunks to fetch. If an attacker owns it, they can redirect to existing content-hashed chunks. They can't inject new code. The signature covers the chunk hashes, not the advisory fields."
 ---
 Suppose an attacker compromises the manifest server. They have full control: they can rewrite every response, change every URL, serve whatever JSON they want.
 What can they do? They can tell browsers to fetch different content-hashed chunks from the CDN. Chunks that already exist. Chunks that were produced by legitimate builds.
 What can't they do? They can't inject new JavaScript. They can't create a chunk that doesn't already exist on the CDN. They can't modify a chunk's contents without invalidating its content hash. And they can't forge the ed25519 signature that covers those hashes.
 This is the security property that the entire Adaptive Bundle Service is designed around. The manifest server is not trusted with code. It is trusted with *routing*. And routing to existing, signed, content-hashed artifacts is a smaller attack surface than serving arbitrary content.
 ## The industry default
 Most web applications rely on two mechanisms for delivery integrity: HTTPS between CDN and browser, and Subresource Integrity (SRI) attributes in HTML.
 HTTPS prevents a network attacker from modifying content in transit. It does nothing if the server itself is compromised. SRI hashes are embedded in `<script>` tags, so if an attacker controls the HTML, they control the hashes too. Both mechanisms assume the origin is trustworthy. Neither protects against a compromised origin.
 Cloudpack separates the concerns. The CDN serves content-hashed chunks: the filename *is* the integrity check. The manifest server tells browsers which chunks to load. The build system signs the manifest with a key the server never sees. Three systems, three trust boundaries, three different things an attacker needs to compromise.
 ## What gets signed
 The manifest signature covers exactly two things: the build ID and the sorted list of chunk hashes. Nothing else.
 Here's the canonical format from [`signing.rs`](https://github.com/kenotron-ms/cloudpack/blob/main/crates/wundler-abs/src/signing.rs):
 ```rust
 pub fn manifest_signature_bytes(manifest: &ChunkManifest) -> Vec<u8> {
    let mut buf = String::new();
    // Write build_id line.
    buf.push_str(&manifest.build_id);
    buf.push('\n');
    // Collect and sort chunks by id for deterministic output.
    let mut chunks: Vec<_> = manifest.chunks.iter().collect();
    chunks.sort_by(|a, b| a.id.cmp(&b.id));
    for chunk in chunks {
        buf.push_str(&chunk.id);
        buf.push(' ');
        buf.push_str(chunk.hash.as_str());
        buf.push('\n');
    }
    buf.into_bytes()
 }
 ```
 The byte representation is deliberate: `build_id` on the first line, then one line per chunk as `{chunk_id} {hash_hex}`, sorted by chunk ID. Deterministic. No ambiguity. No room for canonicalization bugs.
 The signer uses ed25519 via `ed25519_dalek`. The signing key lives in the build system, stored as PKCS8 PEM. The manifest server never holds the private key. It receives a pre-signed manifest and serves it.
 ```rust
 pub fn sign_manifest(&self, manifest: &ChunkManifest) -> Signature {
    use ed25519_dalek::Signer as _;
    let bytes = manifest_signature_bytes(manifest);
    self.signing_key.sign(&bytes)
 }
 ```
 The signature ships as an `X-Wundler-Signature` header on `GET /manifest/full.json`, base64-encoded.

 </div>
 ## Why PGO fields are excluded
 The PGO optimization pipeline updates three fields on each chunk: `co_request_score` (the probability that this chunk is needed given an initial load), `median_load_order` (when in a session it's typically fetched), and `suggested_merge` (a recommendation to merge this chunk with another).
 These fields change between builds. The PGO system writes them back into the manifest after analyzing real browser sessions. If the signature covered them, every PGO update would invalidate the signature and require re-signing with the build key. That would couple the optimization pipeline to the build system's signing infrastructure, defeating the purpose of a decoupled feedback loop.
 So the signature deliberately excludes them. The PGO pipeline can update advisory fields in place without touching the build system. The signature remains valid because it only covers the chunk hashes, and those haven't changed. An attacker who modifies `co_request_score` can change prefetch priority. They cannot change what code gets executed.

 </div>
 The key insight: to inject code, an attacker needs both the ed25519 signing key (held by the build system, never by the server) and write access to the CDN (to upload a chunk whose content hash matches the signed manifest). Compromising the manifest server alone is insufficient.
 Replay attacks are the remaining surface. An attacker can serve an older, legitimately signed manifest. The browser loads a stale version of the application. This is a downgrade attack, not a code injection attack. It's detectable via build-ID monitoring, and the blast radius is bounded: the old code was legitimate code that shipped through the same build pipeline.
 ## Loopback-only hot-swap
 The manifest server exposes two operator endpoints for hot-swapping the active manifest: `POST /reload` (load a new manifest from disk) and `POST /select` (roll back to an archived build).
 Both endpoints enforce a loopback check. If the request arrives over a real TCP connection, the source IP must be `127.0.0.1` or `::1`. From [server.rs](https://github.com/kenotron-ms/cloudpack/blob/main/crates/wundler-abs/src/server.rs):
 ```rust
 if let Some(addr) = addr {
    if !addr.ip().is_loopback() {
        return (
            StatusCode::FORBIDDEN,
            Json(serde_json::json!({
                "error": "reload is only permitted from loopback addresses"
            })),
        )
            .into_response();
    }
 }
 ```
 This is a defense-in-depth measure. Even if an attacker owns the manifest server process, they can't trigger a reload remotely. The reload endpoint reads a manifest from the local filesystem, re-signs it if a signer is configured, installs it in the archive, and atomically swaps the in-memory state. That operation must originate from the same machine.
 When a signer is configured, `/reload` re-signs the new manifest immediately after swapping:
 ```rust
 if let Some(signer) = &state.signer {
    let active_manifest = state.app.snapshot().await;
    let sig = signer.sign_manifest(&active_manifest);
    state.app.set_signature(Some(sig)).await;
 }
 ```
 No window where a manifest is served without a valid signature.
 ## The escape hatch
 The service worker is the enforcement point. On every navigation, it fetches the manifest, checks the signature against the pinned public key, and only then fetches chunks from the CDN URLs in the manifest.
 But service workers can break. When they do, you need a way out. The `?nosw=1` query parameter bypasses the service worker entirely and falls back to classic CDN loading from the static `manifest.json`. No delta optimization, no signature verification, but also no service-worker bug standing between the user and the application.
 This is a standard escape hatch for enterprise IT debugging. It's not a security weakness: bypassing the SW means the browser fetches directly from the CDN, which already uses HTTPS and content-hashed URLs. The signature verification is an additional layer, not the only layer.
 ## Observability
 When the service worker encounters a chunk load failure (network timeout, 404, hash mismatch), it fires a `reportChunkError` to `POST /telemetry/chunk-error`. The server increments an in-memory counter keyed by `(build_id, chunk_id, error_type)` and exposes it via the Prometheus endpoint at `GET /metrics`:
 ```
 wundler_chunk_errors_total{build_id="c2a1",chunk_id="main",error_type="load_failed"} 3
 ```
 A spike in `load_failed` errors for a specific build ID after a deploy is a signal. If the chunk hash in the signed manifest doesn't match what's on the CDN, every browser will report it. The monitoring catches what the signature prevents: corruption or desynchronization between the manifest and the CDN.
 ## The property
 The manifest server tells browsers where to look. The signature proves the build system approved what they'll find there. The content hash confirms the bytes haven't changed. Three independent checks, three independent trust boundaries. Compromise one and the other two still hold.

 type: post
 tags: [bundler, tree-shaking, dead-code, cloudpack, performance]
 summary: "Every bundler claims to tree-shake. Most eliminate unused modules. Cloudpack eliminates unused exports within alive modules using a call-edge graph. The difference: 40% less shipped JavaScript."
 ---
 We cut 40% of shipped JavaScript from a 50,000-module codebase. No features were removed. No pages broke. No user filed a bug. The code we eliminated was already dead. It was just still being shipped.
 Every bundler claims to tree-shake. Webpack does it. Rollup does it. Vite does it. What they actually do is eliminate entire modules that nobody imports. That covers the easy case: if nobody imports `utils/deprecated.ts`, the whole file disappears. Fine. But the hard case is the module that *is* imported, where three of its twelve exports are used and the other nine are dead weight riding along.
 That's where most bundlers stop. That's where we started.
 ## Why most tree-shaking is shallow
 The standard approach works at one level: modules. Mark modules as reachable from an entry point. Eliminate modules that are unreachable. Done.
 The problem is that large codebases don't have neat module boundaries. They have barrel files that re-export everything from a package. They have utility modules with 30 exports where a consumer uses 2. They have shared constants files where one route needs `API_BASE` and the other 47 constants are along for the ride.
 Module-level tree-shaking sees all of these as alive. Every export in an alive module survives. The bundler dutifully transforms, minifies, and ships all of it.
 At Teams scale, this adds up. A 50,000-module codebase has thousands of alive modules where the majority of exports are never called from any live entry point. Module-level shaking removes the dead modules. It doesn't touch the dead *exports* inside live modules.
 ## Two layers, two strategies
 Cloudpack runs tree-shaking in two passes with different risk profiles.

 **Layer 1: Module-level reachability.** BFS from every entry point. If no import chain reaches a module, it's dead. The entire module is dropped. This layer is conservative: any module with a side-effecting import stays alive even if nothing uses its exports. You don't remove a module that writes to `window.APP_VERSION` at import time, because that write is the point.
 **Layer 2: Function-level DCE via call-edge graph.** For every module that survived Layer 1, walk the call-edge graph from public roots (default exports, namespace re-exports). Any named export that no live call chain reaches is marked dead and stripped before the transform phase produces output. This layer is aggressive: if no live entry point transitively calls `throttle`, it's gone.
 The split is deliberate. Module-level code that runs at import time is hard to analyze statically. A `const registry = new Map()` at the top of a module might look pure, but if a side effect somewhere populates it, removing the module breaks the app. So Layer 1 is conservative. It only kills modules that nothing imports.
 Function-level code is different. If `export function throttle()` exists in a module and zero call edges reach it from any live entry point, it is provably dead. No import-time code references it. No other exported function calls it. It is safe to remove. So Layer 2 is aggressive.
 ## SideEffectMarker: reading the AST, not the package.json
 Most bundlers check `package.json` for `"sideEffects": false`. If the package author says it's side-effect-free, the bundler trusts them. If the field is missing, everything is assumed to have side effects and nothing gets shaken.
 This is a lie more often than you'd expect. Packages declare `"sideEffects": false` and then write to `window` at import time. Packages omit the field entirely despite being perfectly pure. The `sideEffects` field in `package.json` is a voluntary declaration by the package author, and voluntary declarations are unreliable at scale.
 Cloudpack doesn't read `package.json`. It reads the AST.
 The `SideEffectMarker` walks every top-level statement of the parsed SWC module and classifies it:
 ```rust
 pub fn analyze_side_effects(module: &Module) -> SideEffectMarker {
    for item in &module.body {
        match item {
            // Import / export declarations are never side effects.
            ModuleItem::ModuleDecl(_) => continue,
            ModuleItem::Stmt(stmt) => match stmt {
                Stmt::Decl(decl) => match decl {
                    // Pure declarations: no side effects.
                    Decl::Fn(_)
                    | Decl::Class(_)
                    | Decl::TsInterface(_)
                    | Decl::TsTypeAlias(_)
                    | Decl::TsEnum(_)
                    | Decl::TsModule(_) => continue,
                    // Variable declarations: ok only when every
                    // initialiser is pure.
                    Decl::Var(var_decl) => {
                        for declarator in &var_decl.decls {
                            if let Some(init) = &declarator.init {
                                if !is_pure_expr(init) {
                                    return SideEffectMarker::Possible {
                                        reason: "top-level variable \
                                          with non-literal initializer"
                                            .to_string(),
                                    };
                                }
                            }
                        }
                    }
                    // ...
                },
                // Expression statements: check for global writes.
                Stmt::Expr(expr_stmt) => {
                    if let Expr::Assign(assign) = expr_stmt.expr.as_ref() {
                        if is_global_member_assignment(assign) {
                            return SideEffectMarker::Definite;
                        }
                    }
                    return SideEffectMarker::Possible {
                        reason: "top-level expression statement"
                            .to_string(),
                    };
                }
                _ => {
                    return SideEffectMarker::Possible {
                        reason: "top-level non-declaration statement"
                            .to_string(),
                    };
                }
            },
        }
    }
    SideEffectMarker::None
 }
 ```
 Three outcomes. `None` means the module contains only function declarations, class declarations, type declarations, and variable declarations with literal initializers. It's safe to eliminate entirely if nothing imports it. `Definite` means the module writes to a known ambient global (`window`, `document`, `globalThis`, `navigator`, `self`). It must stay alive even if nothing consumes its exports. `Possible` means there's a top-level expression or a variable initialized with a function call, and the analyzer can't prove it's pure.
 The key: this runs on the real parsed AST, per module, at summary time. It doesn't trust anyone's self-reported `package.json`. A module that declares `"sideEffects": false` but writes `window.APP_VERSION = '2.0.0'` at the top level gets classified as `Definite`. A module with no `sideEffects` field but containing only function declarations gets classified as `None`. The code is the truth. The package.json is a suggestion.
 ## The call-edge DCE walk
 Layer 2 is where the real savings happen. Here's how it works.
 Every module summary includes a list of `call_edges`: pairs of `(caller, callee)` that record which exported function internally calls which other exported function, within the same module or across modules. Phase 1 (the summarizer) extracts these from the AST. Phase 2 (the graph analyzer) uses them to determine which exports are actually reached.

                    &(node.id.clone(), export.name.clone()))

 Start from the public roots: default exports and star re-exports of every alive module. Follow call edges. Every `(module, export)` pair you reach is live. Everything else is dead.
 The cross-module resolution is the interesting part. A call edge like `"data/helpers::sanitize"` means "this export calls the `sanitize` export of `data/helpers.ts`." The algorithm splits on `"::"`, resolves the target module by path, and continues the walk. Same-module edges (just `"sanitize"` with no `"::"`) stay within the current module. Either way, the BFS propagates liveness transitively: if `fetchUser` calls `parseResp` and `parseResp` calls `sanitize` in another module, all three are live.
 ## Tarjan SCC: cycles don't break the walk
 JavaScript codebases have circular imports. A imports B, B imports A. In a module graph, this creates strongly connected components where reachability is not a simple tree walk.
 Cloudpack handles this with [Tarjan's SCC algorithm](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarjan%27s_strongly_connected_components_algorithm) via petgraph. Before the BFS reachability pass, the graph is decomposed into SCCs. The rule is simple: if any member of a cycle is reached, every member is alive.
 ```rust
 pub fn compute_reachability_with_sccs(
    nodes: &[BundleGraphNode],
    entry_hashes: &HashSet<ContentHash>,
 ) -> HashSet<ContentHash> {
    let adj = build_adjacency(nodes);
    let sccs = tarjan_sccs(nodes, &adj);
    // Map each module to its SCC index.
    let mut scc_of: HashMap<ContentHash, usize> = HashMap::new();
    for (idx, component) in sccs.iter().enumerate() {
        for hash in component {
            scc_of.insert(hash.clone(), idx);
        }
    }
    let mut alive: HashSet<ContentHash> = HashSet::new();
    let mut alive_scc: HashSet<usize> = HashSet::new();
    let mut queue: VecDeque<ContentHash> = VecDeque::new();
    // Seed from entry points.
    for entry in entry_hashes {
        if let Some(&scc_idx) = scc_of.get(entry) {
            activate_scc(scc_idx, &sccs,
                &mut alive, &mut queue, &mut alive_scc);
        }
    }
    // BFS: activate entire SCCs at once.
    while let Some(current) = queue.pop_front() {
        if let Some(targets) = adj.get(&current) {
            for target in targets {
                if let Some(&scc_idx) = scc_of.get(target) {
                    activate_scc(scc_idx, &sccs,
                        &mut alive, &mut queue, &mut alive_scc);
                }
            }
        }
    }
    alive
 }
 ```
 The `activate_scc` function is the key move. When any node in an SCC is first reached, every node in that SCC gets added to `alive` and enqueued for expansion at once. The `alive_scc` set prevents re-processing. On a graph with no cycles, every SCC is a singleton and this degrades to standard BFS. On a graph with cycles, it guarantees that circular import chains don't produce inconsistent alive/dead splits.
 This matters at scale. A 50,000-module codebase has hundreds of import cycles (often via barrel files). Without SCC-aware reachability, you'd either miss modules in cycles (incorrect) or need complex retry logic (slow). Tarjan gives you correctness in one pass.
 ## The correctness audit mode
 Getting tree-shaking wrong is not an "oops, rebuild" situation at Teams scale. It's a silent production bug for 300 million users. The design spec is explicit: correctness audit mode is mandatory and non-negotiable.
 The audit mode runs both conservative-only (no function-level DCE) and the full two-layer pipeline side by side, then diffs the observable outputs. Any divergence is flagged before anything ships. The idea is borrowed from compiler testing: you run the optimized build and the unoptimized build and assert they produce the same observable behavior.
 This is not optional. It runs before any tree-shaking change ships to production. The failure mode of aggressive DCE is not a build error. It's a missing feature that a user discovers in production, with no stack trace and no error message, because the code that implemented it was silently removed.
 ## The pipeline
 The full analysis pipeline in `GraphAnalyzer` wires these pieces together in sequence:
 1. Resolve entry-point paths to content hashes.
 2. Compute alive modules with SCC-aware reachability.
 3. Compute dead exports with call-edge DCE.
 4. Strip dead exports from alive modules.
 5. Assign modules to chunks.
 6. Build the manifest.
 Steps 2 and 3 are the two layers. Step 4 is where the savings materialize: the transform phase (Phase 3) never sees the dead exports. It produces smaller chunk files because the dead code was removed from the graph before transform even started.
 ```rust
 // Step 2: Reachability + dead-export analysis
 let alive = compute_reachability_with_sccs(&nodes, &entry_hash_set);
 let dead_exports = compute_dead_exports(&nodes, &alive);
 // Step 3: Annotate nodes; trim dead exports from alive nodes
 for n in &mut nodes {
    n.alive = alive.contains(&n.id);
    if n.alive {
        if let Some(dead_set) = dead_exports.get(&n.id) {
            if !dead_set.is_empty() {
                n.summary.exports.retain(|e| !dead_set.contains(&e.name));
            }
        }
    }
 }
 ```
 The `retain` call is where dead exports physically disappear. After this, the surviving `exports` list is the truth. Phase 3's transform uses it to emit only the code for exports that survived.
 ## What the numbers look like
 The `AnalysisStats` output tells you exactly what happened:
 ```rust
 pub struct AnalysisStats {
    pub total: usize,   // Total modules in the graph
    pub alive: usize,   // Reachable from an entry point
    pub dead: usize,    // Unreachable, not transformed
    pub chunks: usize,  // Output chunk count
 }
 ```
 In a 50,000-module codebase, Layer 1 (module-level reachability) typically eliminates a significant fraction of modules that are in the dependency graph but unreachable from any active route. Layer 2 (function-level DCE) then strips dead exports from the surviving modules. The combined effect: 40% less JavaScript shipped to production, with zero observable behavior change.
 The wall clock cost of both layers is negligible. At 50,000 modules with ~2KB summaries each (~100MB total), the entire Phase 2 analysis runs in under 604ms. The BFS is linear in edges. The call-edge walk is linear in call edges. Tarjan is linear in nodes plus edges. None of these are bottlenecks.
 40% less JavaScript. Same features. Same behavior. Nobody noticed, because there was nothing to notice. The code was already dead. We just stopped shipping it.

 title: "Your Users Are Already Telling You How to Bundle"
 date: 2026-05-28
 type: post
 tags: [bundler, pgo, optimization, cloudpack, performance]
 summary: "Every browser session is telling you which chunks belong together. The co-request matrix from real traffic drives chunk grouping. No rebuild required. The optimization loop runs on live data."
 ---
 Every browser session that hits your application is a vote. Chunk A and chunk B loaded together in 93% of sessions? They should be one chunk. Chunk C only appears alongside chunk D when the user opens settings? Don't ship them in the initial load.
 Your bundler doesn't know any of this. Chunk boundaries are set at build time from static analysis of the import graph: which modules share a dynamic import, which packages are vendor code, which routes are lazy. Reasonable defaults. But they're guesses. The optimal grouping depends on how users actually navigate, and that's runtime data the build never sees.
 The users already have the answer. Every session tells you which chunks co-occur. Collect enough sessions and the optimal grouping emerges from data, not from heuristics.
 This is [Cloudpack](https://github.com/kenotron-ms/cloudpack)'s PGO layer. Profile-guided optimization applied to HTTP chunk grouping. The feedback loop runs on live traffic. No rebuild required.
 ## The co-request matrix
 The Adaptive Bundle Service logs every session's chunk fetch sequence: which chunks, what order, which entry point. Each session produces one JSONL record. The PGO store ingests these into a SQLite table:
 ```sql
 CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS sessions (
    session_id   TEXT    NOT NULL,
    entry_point  TEXT    NOT NULL,
    chunk_id     TEXT    NOT NULL,
    load_order   INTEGER NOT NULL,
    timestamp_ms INTEGER NOT NULL,
    PRIMARY KEY (session_id, chunk_id)
 );
 CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_chunk ON sessions(chunk_id);
 CREATE INDEX IF NOT EXISTS idx_entry ON sessions(entry_point, chunk_id);
 ```
 One row per `(session_id, chunk_id)` pair. `load_order` preserves position: 0 was the first chunk fetched, 1 was second. Every clustering query reduces to SQL aggregates over this single table.
 Two questions give you everything you need.
 **How many sessions loaded chunk A?** `COUNT(DISTINCT session_id) WHERE chunk_id = 'A'`.
 **How many sessions loaded both A and B?**
 ```sql
 SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT a.session_id)
 FROM sessions a
 JOIN sessions b ON a.session_id = b.session_id
 WHERE a.chunk_id = ?1 AND b.chunk_id = ?2
 ```
 Divide the second by the first: P(B|A), the probability that a session loading chunk A also loads chunk B. Compute both directions. When P(B|A) > 0.70 *and* P(A|B) > 0.70, those chunks belong together.

 ## C³: Conditional Co-request Clustering
 The algorithm is called C³. It descends directly from BOLT's C³ clustering, which reorders basic blocks in compiled binaries based on measured call frequencies. BOLT proved in 2019 that static code layout loses to measured co-occurrence data. Google's Propeller applied the same principle at link time. Cloudpack applies it to HTTP chunk delivery.
 The [Rust implementation](https://github.com/kenotron-ms/cloudpack):
 ```rust
 /// Tuning knobs for the C³ algorithm.
 pub struct C3Config {
    /// Both P(b|a) and P(a|b) must exceed this for a merge.
    /// Default: 0.70.
    pub merge_threshold: f64,
    /// Max combined module count after merge. Default: 500.
    pub max_merge_modules: usize,
    /// No clustering below this session count. Default: 100.
    pub min_sessions: usize,
 }
 ```
 Three knobs. The threshold at 0.70 means both conditional probabilities must exceed 70%. Not one direction. Both. If P(B|A) is 0.95 but P(A|B) is 0.30, chunk B almost always appears when A does, but A loads in many sessions without B. That's a prefetch candidate, not a merge candidate.
 The `min_sessions` gate prevents decisions on insufficient data. Below 100 sessions, every chunk returns `None` as its merge suggestion. No data is better than noisy data.
 The core algorithm:
 ```rust
 pub fn compute_clusters(
    store: &PgoStore,
    chunk_ids: &[String],
    config: &C3Config,
 ) -> anyhow::Result<HashMap<String, Option<String>>> {
    let mut result: HashMap<String, Option<String>> =
        chunk_ids.iter().map(|id| (id.clone(), None)).collect();
    if store.session_count()? < config.min_sessions {
        return Ok(result);
    }
    let mut candidates: Vec<(f64, String, String)> = Vec::new();
    let n = chunk_ids.len();
    for i in 0..n {
        for j in (i + 1)..n {
            let (a, b) = if chunk_ids[i] <= chunk_ids[j] {
                (&chunk_ids[i], &chunk_ids[j])
            } else {
                (&chunk_ids[j], &chunk_ids[i])
            };
            let co = store.co_load_count(a, b)?;
            let na = store.chunk_load_count(a)?;
            let nb = store.chunk_load_count(b)?;
            if na == 0 || nb == 0 { continue; }
            let p_ab = co as f64 / na as f64; // P(b|a)
            let p_ba = co as f64 / nb as f64; // P(a|b)
            if p_ab > config.merge_threshold
                && p_ba > config.merge_threshold
            {
                candidates.push((p_ab + p_ba, a.clone(), b.clone()));
            }
        }
    }
    // Sort by combined score descending.
    candidates.sort_by(|x, y| {
        y.0.partial_cmp(&x.0)
            .unwrap_or(std::cmp::Ordering::Equal)
            .then_with(|| x.1.cmp(&y.1))
    });
    // Greedy assignment: once a chunk is taken, it can't merge again.
    let mut assigned: HashSet<String> = HashSet::new();
    for (_, a, b) in &candidates {
        if assigned.contains(a.as_str())
            || assigned.contains(b.as_str()) { continue; }
        result.insert(a.clone(), Some(b.clone()));
        result.insert(b.clone(), Some(a.clone()));
        assigned.insert(a.clone());
        assigned.insert(b.clone());
    }
    Ok(result)
 }
 ```
 Four steps. Enumerate all pairs. Compute both conditional probabilities from the store. Sort by combined score descending. Greedy-assign, highest-scoring pairs first.
 The greedy constraint matters. Once a chunk is assigned, it can't participate in another merge. This prevents chain merges where A joins B, B joins C, and you end up with a mega-chunk containing half the application. Each chunk gets at most one merge partner.

 ## Advisory fields: no rebuild required
 The clustering output writes back into the ChunkManifest through three advisory fields per chunk:
 ```rust
 pub struct ChunkHint {
    pub co_request_score: f64,
    pub median_load_order: f64,
    pub suggested_merge: Option<String>,
 }
 ```
 `co_request_score`: the fraction of sessions that loaded this chunk within the first three load positions. High score means it's part of nearly every initial page load. `median_load_order`: the median position in the load waterfall across all sessions. Low value means early. `suggested_merge`: the chunk this one should merge with, or `None`.
 The `compute_hints` function wires the store, clustering, and per-chunk metrics together:
 ```rust
 pub fn compute_hints(
    store: &PgoStore,
    manifest_build_id: &str,
    chunk_ids: &[String],
    cluster_config: &C3Config,
 ) -> anyhow::Result<PgoHints> {
    let session_count = store.session_count()?;
    let clusters = compute_clusters(
        store, chunk_ids, cluster_config)?;
    let mut chunk_hints = HashMap::new();
    for chunk_id in chunk_ids {
        let co_request_score = if session_count == 0 { 0.0 }
            else {
                store.initial_load_count(chunk_id, 3)?
                    as f64 / session_count as f64
            };
        let median_load_order =
            store.median_load_order(chunk_id)?;
        let suggested_merge =
            clusters.get(chunk_id).and_then(|v| v.clone());
        chunk_hints.insert(chunk_id.clone(), ChunkHint {
            co_request_score,
            median_load_order,
            suggested_merge,
        });
    }
    Ok(PgoHints {
        build_id: manifest_build_id.to_string(),
        chunk_hints,
    })
 }
 ```
 For each chunk: what fraction of sessions load it in the first three positions? What's its median waterfall position? Should it merge? Three numbers per chunk. That's the entire PGO output.
 These fields are excluded from the content signature. A chunk's content hash is computed from its module contents alone. Updating PGO hints changes no hash, invalidates no CDN edge, requires no rebuild. The code is identical. The delivery grouping shifts because the data said it should.
 ```
 Chunk {
  id, modules: ContentHash[], hash: ContentHash
  loadCondition: INITIAL | LAZY | PREFETCH
  coRequestScore?:  number    // PGO-populated
  suggestedMerge?:  ChunkId   // PGO recommendation
 }
 ```
 The `?` fields are absent on first deploy. They appear after the PGO store accumulates enough data. The manifest grows advisory metadata over time without any structural change to the build output.
 ## The deployment timeline
 Deploy 1 ships with static chunk boundaries from the build. No PGO data exists. The manifest has no `coRequestScore`, no `suggestedMerge`.
 Sessions accumulate. After 100 sessions (the `min_sessions` gate), C³ starts producing suggestions. At 1,000 sessions the co-request matrix stabilizes. The 0.70 threshold is conservative by design: both directions must exceed 70%, which means 30% of sessions can deviate without triggering a merge. False positives (merging chunks that shouldn't be merged) waste bandwidth by sending unnecessary bytes. False negatives (not merging chunks that should be) preserve the status quo. The threshold favors the status quo.
 The ABS applies hints on the next manifest response. When `suggestedMerge` says chunk A belongs with chunk B, the service can group both in a single HTTP response. Fewer requests, better compression, closer match to actual usage. The chunks themselves are unchanged. Their content hashes are identical. Only the packaging shifted.

Ken	250107df4f	docs: add rage author motivation + cloudpack synthetic benchmarking approach Rage: The real story is combining lage's dev ergonomics with BuildXL's correctness at scale. Ken has wanted this synthesis for years since co-creating lage. Frame the series around ergonomics vs correctness. Cloudpack benchmarking: synthetic codebases generated from observed attributes of real shipping code. Pipeline: observe real repo → produce BenchProfile JSON → corpus_gen creates deterministic synthetic codebase (same seed = byte-identical) → corpus_verify confirms conformance → benchmark at various scales (100 to 50k modules). Three TypeScript module variants (barrel, intermediate, leaf) with realistic import structures, side effects, and ambient refs. JSON configs, markdown docs fill out the shape. Tolerances: 2% file count, 5% byte/line count. This solves 'we can't share the real codebase' for public benchmarks. Worth a blog post on its own. 🤖 Generated with Amplifier Co-Authored-By: Amplifier <240397093+microsoft-amplifier@users.noreply.github.com>	2026-05-27 06:49:20 +00:00
