Strip prose references to sibling Go implementations and external
ticket IDs from cursor.py, the cursor tests, the keyset integration
tests, asset_management's sort-field comment, and the legacy
prompt_id alias comment. Pure docstring/comment scrub — no behavior
or wire-format changes. x-runtime: [cloud] field annotations in
openapi.yaml are unchanged; those are the spec's structural
cross-runtime convention, not internal references.
- Soften offset param prose: it's not deprecated, just not preferred for
sequential walks. Random-access UIs (jump-to-page, item count displays)
legitimately still want offset, so dropping the 'deprecated' framing
rather than promoting it to a machine-readable deprecated:true flag.
- Add explicit HTTP status assertions before every json() / next_cursor
read in test_list_cursor.py so a failing request surfaces as an HTTP
error instead of a confusing KeyError on a 4xx/5xx body.
Address three needs-judgment items from the cursor-review judge synthesis:
1. Cursor wire format now includes an "o" key carrying the sort
direction ("asc" / "desc") it was minted under. A request that
replays the cursor with a flipped `order` parameter is rejected
with 400 INVALID_CURSOR instead of silently walking the wrong
direction. Legacy cursors without "o" still decode (the binding
is best-effort until cloud mirrors the field — follow-up filed
separately).
2. JSON serialization now escapes `<`, `>`, `&`, U+2028, U+2029
to mirror Go's default `json.Marshal` behavior. Without this, an
asset name containing those characters produced different bytes on
Python vs cloud Go. The escaped form is what both runtimes emit.
3. Add direct query-layer tests for the keyset tiebreaker — the secondary
ORDER BY id branch was previously unexercised. Two scenarios: all
rows share a primary sort value, and mixed ties straddle page
boundaries. Both assert no row is dropped or duplicated across the
walk.
Wire-format note: Python cursors now differ from current cloud cursors
by exactly the "o" key. Cloud follow-up will bring the two back into
byte alignment.
- Mint next_cursor on every cursor-supported sort, not only when 'after'
was supplied. A first request (no 'after') previously returned
next_cursor=None, leaving cursor mode unreachable from a clean start.
- Over-fetch limit+1 so an exactly-full terminal page doesn't mint a
spurious cursor pointing at a phantom next page.
- Map crafted out-of-range microsecond cursors (OverflowError / OSError
in datetime construction) to 400 INVALID_CURSOR instead of leaking 500.
- Bump MAX_CURSOR_VALUE_LENGTH 256 -> 512 to match the AssetReference
name column max; without this, a long-named asset minted a cursor the
same server then refused on the next request. Cross-runtime byte
identity with cloud is unaffected because no cloud cursor ever carries
a value > 256 (cloud schema doesn't permit it).
- Return None from _encode_next_cursor when the boundary row carries a
NULL sort value (e.g. an Asset without size_bytes backfilled), instead
of silently encoding 0 and mis-positioning the keyset.
- Fix schemas_in.py comment so it matches actual handler behavior
(last_access_time + 'after' raises 400, does not fall back).
- Add AssetsApiError schema + 400 response to GET /api/assets in
openapi.yaml so generated clients know the INVALID_CURSOR envelope.
- Extend integration coverage: first-page mint, exact-multiple terminal
page, cursor walks for created_at/updated_at/size sorts, datetime
overflow surfaces as 400 not 500.
- Add unit coverage for datetime overflow and 512-char round-trip.
Adds integration tests for: full cursor walk, invalid-cursor 400,
sort/cursor mismatch 400, cursor-wins-over-offset, absent next_cursor
when no more results, and pagination stability across deletes.
