 If both LangSmith and Langfuse are enabled, DeerFlow attaches both tracing callbacks and reports the same model activity to both systems.

 ### Sandbox System (`packages/harness/deerflow/sandbox/`)
 
 **Interface**: Abstract `Sandbox` with `execute_command`, `read_file`, `write_file`, `list_dir`
-**Provider Pattern**: `SandboxProvider` with `acquire`, `acquire_async`, `get`, `release` lifecycle. Async agent/tool paths call async sandbox lifecycle hooks so Docker sandbox creation, discovery, cross-process locking, readiness polling, and release stay off the event loop.
+**Provider Pattern**: `SandboxProvider` with `acquire`, `get`, `release` lifecycle
 **Implementations**:
-- `LocalSandboxProvider` - Local filesystem execution. `acquire(thread_id)` returns a per-thread `LocalSandbox` (id `local:{thread_id}`) whose `path_mappings` resolve `/mnt/user-data/{workspace,uploads,outputs}` and `/mnt/acp-workspace` to that thread's host directories, so the public `Sandbox` API honours the `/mnt/user-data` contract uniformly with AIO. `acquire()` / `acquire(None)` keeps the legacy generic singleton (id `local`) for callers without a thread context. Per-thread sandboxes are held in an LRU cache (default 256 entries) guarded by a `threading.Lock`.
+- `LocalSandboxProvider` - Singleton local filesystem execution with path mappings
 - `AioSandboxProvider` (`packages/harness/deerflow/community/`) - Docker-based isolation
 
 **Virtual Path System**:
 - Agent sees: `/mnt/user-data/{workspace,uploads,outputs}`, `/mnt/skills`
 - Physical: `backend/.deer-flow/users/{user_id}/threads/{thread_id}/user-data/...`, `deer-flow/skills/`
-- Translation: `LocalSandboxProvider` builds per-thread `PathMapping`s for the user-data prefixes at acquire time; `tools.py` keeps `replace_virtual_path()` / `replace_virtual_paths_in_command()` as a defense-in-depth layer (and for path validation). AIO has the directories volume-mounted at the same virtual paths inside its container, so both implementations accept `/mnt/user-data/...` natively.
+- Translation: `replace_virtual_path()` / `replace_virtual_paths_in_command()`
-- Detection: `is_local_sandbox()` accepts both `sandbox_id == "local"` (legacy / no-thread) and `sandbox_id.startswith("local:")` (per-thread)
+- Detection: `is_local_sandbox()` checks `sandbox_id == "local"`

-### Tracing System (`packages/harness/deerflow/tracing/`)
-
-LangSmith and Langfuse are both supported. The wiring lives in two layers:
-
-- `factory.py::build_tracing_callbacks()` — returns the LangChain `CallbackHandler` list for the providers currently enabled via env vars (`LANGSMITH_TRACING`, `LANGFUSE_TRACING`, etc.). The handlers are attached at the **graph invocation root** for in-graph runs (`make_lead_agent` and `DeerFlowClient.stream` both append them to `config["callbacks"]` before invoking the graph) so a single run produces one trace with all node / LLM / tool calls as child spans. Standalone callers — anything that invokes a model outside such a graph (e.g. `MemoryUpdater`) — keep `create_chat_model`'s default `attach_tracing=True`, which falls back to model-level callback attachment.
-- `metadata.py::build_langfuse_trace_metadata()` — builds the Langfuse-reserved trace attributes for `RunnableConfig.metadata`. The Langfuse v4 `langchain.CallbackHandler` lifts these onto the root trace (see its `_parse_langfuse_trace_attributes`), but only when it sees `on_chain_start(parent_run_id=None)` — which is why the callbacks have to live at the graph root, not the model.
-
-**Trace-attribute injection points**: both `runtime/runs/worker.py::run_agent` (gateway path) and `client.py::DeerFlowClient.stream` (embedded path) merge the metadata into `config["metadata"]` right before constructing the graph. Caller-supplied keys win via `setdefault`, so an external `session_id` override is preserved. Field mapping:
-
-| Langfuse field         | Source                                       |
-|-----------------------|----------------------------------------------|
-| `langfuse_session_id` | LangGraph `thread_id`                         |
-| `langfuse_user_id`    | `get_effective_user_id()` (`default` in no-auth) |
-| `langfuse_trace_name` | `RunRecord.assistant_id` / client `agent_name` (defaults to `lead-agent`) |
-| `langfuse_tags`       | `env:<DEER_FLOW_ENV>` + `model:<model_name>`  |
-
-Returns `{}` when Langfuse is not in the enabled providers — LangSmith-only deployments are unaffected. Set `DEER_FLOW_ENV` (or `ENVIRONMENT`) to tag traces by deployment environment. Tests live in `tests/test_tracing_factory.py`, `tests/test_tracing_metadata.py`, `tests/test_worker_langfuse_metadata.py`, and `tests/test_client_langfuse_metadata.py`.

+# Storage Package Design
+
+## Background
+
+DeerFlow currently has several persistence responsibilities spread across app, gateway, runtime, and legacy persistence modules. This makes the persistence boundary difficult to reason about and creates several migration risks:
+
+- Routers and runtime services can accidentally depend on concrete persistence implementations instead of stable contracts.
+- User/auth, run metadata, thread metadata, feedback, run events, and checkpointer setup are initialized through different paths.
+- Some persistence behavior is duplicated between memory, SQLite, and PostgreSQL-oriented code paths.
+- Incremental migration is hard because app-level code and storage-level code are coupled.
+- Adding or validating another SQL backend requires touching app/runtime code instead of a storage-owned package.
+
+The storage package is introduced to make application data persistence a package-level capability with explicit contracts, a clear boundary, and SQL backend compatibility.
+
+## Goals
+
+- Provide a standalone `packages/storage` package for durable application data.
+- Support SQLite, PostgreSQL, and MySQL through a shared persistence construction flow.
+- Keep LangGraph checkpointer initialization compatible with the same database backend.
+- Expose repository contracts as the only package-level data access boundary.
+- Let the app layer depend on app-owned adapters under `app.infra.storage`, not on storage DB implementation classes.
+- Allow the app/gateway migration to happen in small steps without forcing a large rewrite.
+
+## Non-Goals
+
+- This design does not remove legacy persistence in the first PR.
+- This design does not move routers directly onto storage package models.
+- This design does not make app routers own SQLAlchemy sessions.
+- Cron persistence is intentionally out of scope for the storage package foundation.
+- Memory backend is not part of the durable storage package. Memory compatibility, if still needed by app runtime, belongs outside `packages/storage`.
+
+## Storage Design Principles
+
+### Package-Owned Durable Storage
+
+`packages/storage` owns durable application data persistence. It defines:
+
+- configuration shape for storage-backed persistence
+- SQLAlchemy models
+- repository contracts and DTOs
+- SQL repository implementations
+- persistence factory functions
+- compatibility helpers for config-driven initialization
+
+The package should be usable without importing `app.gateway`, routers, auth providers, or runtime-specific gateway objects.
+
+### SQL Backend Compatibility
+
+The package supports three SQL backends:
+
+- SQLite for local/single-node deployments
+- PostgreSQL for production multi-node deployments
+- MySQL for deployments that standardize on MySQL
+
+Backend-specific differences are handled inside the storage package:
+
+- SQLAlchemy async engine URL construction
+- LangGraph checkpointer connection-string compatibility
+- JSON metadata filtering across SQLite/PostgreSQL/MySQL
+- SQL dialect behavior around locking, aggregation, and JSON type semantics
+
+### Unified Persistence Bundle
+
+Storage initialization returns an `AppPersistence` bundle:
+
+```python
+@dataclass(slots=True)
+class AppPersistence:
+    checkpointer: Checkpointer
+    engine: AsyncEngine
+    session_factory: async_sessionmaker[AsyncSession]
+    setup: Callable[[], Awaitable[None]]
+    aclose: Callable[[], Awaitable[None]]
+```
+
+The app runtime can initialize persistence once, call `setup()`, and then inject:
+
+- `checkpointer`
+- `session_factory`
+- repository adapters
+
+This keeps checkpointer and application data aligned to the same backend without requiring routers to understand database configuration.
+
+## Package Layout
+
+```text
+backend/packages/storage/
+  store/
+    config/
+      storage_config.py
+      app_config.py
+    persistence/
+      factory.py

+        thread_meta.py
+        feedback.py
+        run_event.py
+      factory.py
+```
+
+## Persistence Construction
+
+The primary storage entrypoint is:
+
+```python
+from store.persistence import create_persistence_from_storage_config
+
+persistence = await create_persistence_from_storage_config(storage_config)
+await persistence.setup()
+```
+
+For app-level compatibility with existing database config shape:
+
+```python
+from store.persistence import create_persistence_from_database_config
+
+persistence = await create_persistence_from_database_config(config.database)
+await persistence.setup()
+```
+
+Expected app startup flow:
+
+```python
+persistence = await create_persistence_from_database_config(config.database)
+await persistence.setup()
+
+app.state.persistence = persistence
+app.state.checkpointer = persistence.checkpointer
+app.state.session_factory = persistence.session_factory
+```
+
+Expected app shutdown flow:
+
+```python
+await app.state.persistence.aclose()
+```
+
+## Repository Contract Design
+
+Repository contracts are the storage package's public data access boundary. They live under `store.repositories.contracts` and are re-exported from `store.repositories`.
+
+The key contract groups are:
+
+- `UserRepositoryProtocol`
+- `RunRepositoryProtocol`
+- `ThreadMetaRepositoryProtocol`
+- `FeedbackRepositoryProtocol`
+- `RunEventRepositoryProtocol`
+
+Each contract owns:
+
+- input DTOs, such as `UserCreate`, `RunCreate`, `ThreadMetaCreate`
+- output DTOs, such as `User`, `Run`, `ThreadMeta`
+- repository protocol methods
+- domain-specific exceptions when needed, such as `InvalidMetadataFilterError`
+
+Repository construction is session-based:
+
+```python
+from store.repositories import build_run_repository
+
+async with persistence.session_factory() as session:
+    repo = build_run_repository(session)
+    run = await repo.get_run(run_id)
+```
+
+This keeps transaction ownership explicit. The storage package does not hide commits or session lifecycle inside global singletons.
+
+## App/Infra Calling Contract
+
+The app layer should not call `store.repositories.db.*` directly. The intended app boundary is `app.infra.storage`.
+
+`app.infra.storage` is responsible for:
+
+- receiving `session_factory` from FastAPI runtime initialization
+- owning session lifecycle for app-facing repository methods
+- translating storage DTOs to app/gateway DTOs only when needed
+- preserving the existing app-facing names during migration
+- depending on storage repository protocols, not concrete DB classes
+
+Expected adapter pattern:
+
+```python
+class StorageRunRepository(RunRepositoryProtocol):
+    def __init__(self, session_factory):
+        self._session_factory = session_factory
+
+    async def get_run(self, run_id: str):
+        async with self._session_factory() as session:
+            repo = build_run_repository(session)
+            return await repo.get_run(run_id)
+```
+
+For gateway compatibility, app state can keep existing names while the implementation changes:
+
+```python
+app.state.run_store = StorageRunStore(run_repository)
+app.state.feedback_repo = StorageFeedbackStore(feedback_repository)
+app.state.thread_store = StorageThreadMetaStore(thread_meta_repository)
+app.state.run_event_store = StorageRunEventStore(run_event_repository)
+app.state.checkpointer = persistence.checkpointer
+app.state.session_factory = persistence.session_factory
+```
+
+The app-facing objects may expose legacy method names during migration, but their internal data access should go through storage contracts.
+
+## Boundary Rules
+
+### Allowed Calls
+
+Storage package callers may use:
+
+```python
+from store.persistence import create_persistence_from_database_config
+from store.persistence import create_persistence_from_storage_config
+from store.repositories import build_run_repository
+from store.repositories import build_user_repository
+from store.repositories import build_thread_meta_repository
+from store.repositories import build_feedback_repository
+from store.repositories import build_run_event_repository
+from store.repositories import RunRepositoryProtocol
+from store.repositories import UserRepositoryProtocol
+```
+
+App layer callers should use:
+
+```python
+from app.infra.storage import StorageRunRepository
+from app.infra.storage import StorageUserDataRepository
+from app.infra.storage import StorageThreadMetaRepository
+from app.infra.storage import StorageFeedbackRepository
+from app.infra.storage import StorageRunEventRepository
+```
+
+### Prohibited Calls
+
+App/gateway/router/auth code must not import:
+
+```python
+from store.repositories.db import DbRunRepository
+from store.repositories.models import Run
+from store.persistence.base_model import MappedBase
+```
+
+Routers must not:
+
+- create SQLAlchemy engines
+- create SQLAlchemy sessions directly
+- call storage DB repository classes directly
+- commit/rollback storage transactions directly unless explicitly scoped by an infra adapter
+- depend on storage SQLAlchemy model classes
+
+Storage package code must not import:
+
+```python
+import app.gateway
+import app.infra
+import deerflow.runtime
+```
+
+The dependency direction is:
+
+```text
+app/gateway -> app.infra.storage -> packages/storage contracts/factories -> packages/storage db implementations
+```
+
+The reverse direction is forbidden.
+
+## Checkpointer Compatibility
+
+The storage persistence bundle initializes the LangGraph checkpointer alongside application data persistence.
+
+Backend-specific notes:
+
+- SQLite uses `langgraph-checkpoint-sqlite`.
+- PostgreSQL uses `langgraph-checkpoint-postgres` and requires a string `postgresql://...` connection URL.
+- MySQL uses `langgraph-checkpoint-mysql` and requires a string MySQL connection URL.
+
+SQLAlchemy may use async driver URLs such as `postgresql+asyncpg://...` or `mysql+aiomysql://...`, but LangGraph checkpointer constructors expect plain string connection URLs. This conversion belongs inside the storage driver implementation.
+
+## JSON Metadata Filtering
+
+Thread metadata search supports dialect-aware JSON filtering through `store.persistence.json_compat`.
+
+The matcher supports:
+
+- `None`
+- `bool`
+- `int`
+- `float`
+- `str`
+
+It rejects:
+
+- unsafe keys
+- nested JSON path expressions
+- dict/list values
+- integers outside signed 64-bit range
+
+This prevents SQL/JSON path injection, avoids compiled-cache type drift, and preserves type semantics such as `True != 1` and explicit JSON `null` not matching a missing key.
+
+## Step-by-Step Implementation Plan
+
+### Step 1: Introduce Storage Package Foundation
+
+- Add `backend/packages/storage`.
+- Add storage config models.
+- Add `AppPersistence`.
+- Add SQLite/PostgreSQL/MySQL persistence drivers.
+- Add repository contracts, models, DB implementations, and factory helpers.
+- Add package dependency wiring.
+- Exclude cron persistence.
+
+### Step 2: Harden Storage Backend Compatibility
+
+- Validate SQLite setup and repository behavior.
+- Validate PostgreSQL and MySQL with local E2E tests.
+- Fix checkpointer connection-string compatibility.
+- Fix PostgreSQL locking and aggregation differences.
+- Add dialect-aware JSON metadata filtering.
+
+### Step 3: Add App Infra Adapters
+
+- Add `backend/app/infra/storage`.
+- Implement app-facing repositories that own session lifecycle.
+- Keep storage contracts as the only data access boundary.
+- Add legacy compatibility adapters for existing app/gateway method shapes.
+- Keep app/gateway imports out of `packages/storage`.
+
+### Step 4: Switch FastAPI Runtime Injection
+
+- Initialize storage persistence in FastAPI startup/lifespan.
+- Attach `persistence`, `checkpointer`, and `session_factory` to `app.state`.
+- Preserve existing external state names:
+  - `run_store`
+  - `feedback_repo`
+  - `thread_store`
+  - `run_event_store`
+  - `checkpointer`
+  - `session_factory`
+- Start with user/auth provider construction, then migrate run/thread/feedback/run_event.
+
+### Step 5: Router and Auth Compatibility
+
+- Ensure routers consume app-facing adapters, not storage DB classes.
+- Ensure auth providers depend on user repository contracts.
+- Keep router response shapes unchanged.
+- Add focused auth/admin/router regression tests.
+
+### Step 6: Cleanup Legacy Persistence
+
+- Compare old persistence usage after app/gateway migration.
+- Remove unused old repository implementations only after all call sites move.
+- Keep compatibility shims only where needed for a transition window.
+- Delete memory backend paths from storage-owned durable persistence.
+
+## Testing Strategy
+
+Unit tests should cover:
+
+- config parsing
+- persistence setup
+- table creation
+- repository CRUD/query behavior
+- typed JSON metadata filtering
+- dialect SQL compilation
+- cron exclusion
+
+E2E tests should cover:
+
+- SQLite persistence setup
+- PostgreSQL temporary database setup
+- MySQL temporary database setup
+- repository contract behavior across all supported SQL backends
+- JSON/Unicode round trip
+- rollback behavior
+- persistence close/cleanup
+
+E2E tests may remain local-only if CI does not provide PostgreSQL/MySQL services.

+# Storage Package 设计文档
+
+## 背景
+
+DeerFlow 当前有多类持久化职责分散在 app、gateway、runtime 和旧 persistence 模块中。这会带来几个问题：
+
+- routers 和 runtime services 容易依赖具体 persistence 实现，而不是稳定契约。
+- user/auth、run metadata、thread metadata、feedback、run events、checkpointer setup 的初始化路径不统一。
+- memory、SQLite、PostgreSQL 相关路径中存在部分重复逻辑。
+- app 层代码和 storage 层代码耦合，导致增量迁移困难。
+- 增加或验证新的 SQL backend 时，需要改动 app/runtime，而不是只改 storage package。
+
+引入 storage package 的目标，是把应用数据持久化抽象成 package 级能力，并提供明确契约、清晰边界和 SQL backend 兼容性。
+
+## 目标
+
+- 新增独立的 `packages/storage`，负责 durable application data。
+- 通过统一 persistence 构造流程支持 SQLite、PostgreSQL、MySQL。
+- 保持 LangGraph checkpointer 与同一个数据库 backend 兼容。
+- 将 repository contracts 作为 package 对外唯一数据访问边界。
+- app 层通过 `app.infra.storage` 适配 storage，而不是直接依赖 storage DB 实现类。
+- 支持 app/gateway 后续小步迁移，避免一次性大重构。
+
+## 非目标
+
+- 第一阶段不删除旧 persistence。
+- 不让 routers 直接依赖 storage package models。
+- 不让 app routers 管理 SQLAlchemy sessions。
+- cron persistence 不属于 storage package 基础迁移范围。
+- memory backend 不属于 durable storage package。若 app runtime 仍需要 memory 兼容，应放在 `packages/storage` 之外。
+
+## Storage 设计理念
+
+### Package 自己负责 Durable Storage
+
+`packages/storage` 负责应用数据的 durable persistence，包括：
+
+- storage 持久化配置
+- SQLAlchemy models
+- repository contracts 和 DTOs
+- SQL repository 实现
+- persistence factory functions
+- 面向现有 config 的兼容初始化入口
+
+该 package 不应该 import `app.gateway`、routers、auth providers 或 runtime 中的 gateway 对象。
+
+### SQL Backend 兼容
+
+该 package 支持三种 SQL backend：
+
+- SQLite：本地或单节点部署
+- PostgreSQL：生产多节点部署
+- MySQL：使用 MySQL 作为标准数据库的部署
+
+backend 差异在 storage package 内部处理：
+
+- SQLAlchemy async engine URL 构造
+- LangGraph checkpointer 连接串兼容
+- SQLite/PostgreSQL/MySQL 的 JSON metadata filter
+- 不同 SQL 方言在 locking、aggregation、JSON 类型语义上的差异
+
+### 统一 Persistence Bundle
+
+Storage 初始化返回 `AppPersistence` bundle：
+
+```python
+@dataclass(slots=True)
+class AppPersistence:
+    checkpointer: Checkpointer
+    engine: AsyncEngine
+    session_factory: async_sessionmaker[AsyncSession]
+    setup: Callable[[], Awaitable[None]]
+    aclose: Callable[[], Awaitable[None]]
+```
+
+app runtime 只需要初始化一次 persistence，调用 `setup()`，然后注入：
+
+- `checkpointer`
+- `session_factory`
+- repository adapters
+
+这样 checkpointer 和应用数据可以对齐到同一个 backend，同时 routers 不需要理解数据库配置。
+

+        thread_meta.py
+        feedback.py
+        run_event.py
+      factory.py
+```
+
+## Persistence 构造
+
+storage 的主要入口：
+
+```python
+from store.persistence import create_persistence_from_storage_config
+
+persistence = await create_persistence_from_storage_config(storage_config)
+await persistence.setup()
+```
+
+为了兼容现有 app database config，也提供：
+
+```python
+from store.persistence import create_persistence_from_database_config
+
+persistence = await create_persistence_from_database_config(config.database)
+await persistence.setup()
+```
+
+预期 app startup 流程：
+
+```python
+persistence = await create_persistence_from_database_config(config.database)
+await persistence.setup()
+
+app.state.persistence = persistence
+app.state.checkpointer = persistence.checkpointer
+app.state.session_factory = persistence.session_factory
+```
+
+预期 app shutdown 流程：
+
+```python
+await app.state.persistence.aclose()
+```
+
+## Repository 契约设计
+
+Repository contracts 是 storage package 对外公开的数据访问边界。它们位于 `store.repositories.contracts`，并通过 `store.repositories` re-export。
+
+主要契约包括：
+
+- `UserRepositoryProtocol`
+- `RunRepositoryProtocol`
+- `ThreadMetaRepositoryProtocol`
+- `FeedbackRepositoryProtocol`
+- `RunEventRepositoryProtocol`
+
+每组契约包含：
+
+- 输入 DTO，例如 `UserCreate`、`RunCreate`、`ThreadMetaCreate`
+- 输出 DTO，例如 `User`、`Run`、`ThreadMeta`
+- repository protocol methods
+- 必要的领域异常，例如 `InvalidMetadataFilterError`
+
+Repository 通过 session 构造：
+
+```python
+from store.repositories import build_run_repository
+
+async with persistence.session_factory() as session:
+    repo = build_run_repository(session)
+    run = await repo.get_run(run_id)
+```
+
+这样可以让 transaction ownership 保持明确。storage package 不通过全局 singleton 隐式隐藏 commit 或 session 生命周期。
+
+## App/Infra 调用契约
+
+app 层不应该直接调用 `store.repositories.db.*`。预期的 app 边界是 `app.infra.storage`。
+
+`app.infra.storage` 负责：
+
+- 从 FastAPI runtime 初始化中接收 `session_factory`
+- 为 app-facing repository methods 管理 session 生命周期
+- 在必要时将 storage DTOs 转成 app/gateway DTOs
+- 迁移期间保留现有 app-facing 名称
+- 依赖 storage repository protocols，而不是具体 DB classes
+
+预期 adapter 模式：
+
+```python
+class StorageRunRepository(RunRepositoryProtocol):
+    def __init__(self, session_factory):
+        self._session_factory = session_factory
+
+    async def get_run(self, run_id: str):
+        async with self._session_factory() as session:
+            repo = build_run_repository(session)
+            return await repo.get_run(run_id)
+```
+
+为了兼容 gateway，app state 可以暂时保持现有名字，只替换内部实现：
+
+```python
+app.state.run_store = StorageRunStore(run_repository)
+app.state.feedback_repo = StorageFeedbackStore(feedback_repository)
+app.state.thread_store = StorageThreadMetaStore(thread_meta_repository)
+app.state.run_event_store = StorageRunEventStore(run_event_repository)
+app.state.checkpointer = persistence.checkpointer
+app.state.session_factory = persistence.session_factory
+```
+
+app-facing objects 可以在迁移期间保留旧方法名，但内部数据访问必须经过 storage contracts。
+
+## 边界规则
+
+### 允许调用的范围
+
+storage package 调用方可以使用：
+
+```python
+from store.persistence import create_persistence_from_database_config
+from store.persistence import create_persistence_from_storage_config
+from store.repositories import build_run_repository
+from store.repositories import build_user_repository
+from store.repositories import build_thread_meta_repository
+from store.repositories import build_feedback_repository
+from store.repositories import build_run_event_repository
+from store.repositories import RunRepositoryProtocol
+from store.repositories import UserRepositoryProtocol
+```
+
+app 层应该使用：
+
+```python
+from app.infra.storage import StorageRunRepository
+from app.infra.storage import StorageUserDataRepository
+from app.infra.storage import StorageThreadMetaRepository
+from app.infra.storage import StorageFeedbackRepository
+from app.infra.storage import StorageRunEventRepository
+```
+
+### 禁止调用的范围
+
+app/gateway/router/auth 代码不应该 import：
+
+```python
+from store.repositories.db import DbRunRepository
+from store.repositories.models import Run
+from store.persistence.base_model import MappedBase
+```
+
+routers 禁止：
+
+- 创建 SQLAlchemy engines
+- 直接创建 SQLAlchemy sessions
+- 直接调用 storage DB repository classes
+- 直接 commit/rollback storage transactions，除非这是 infra adapter 明确管理的范围
+- 依赖 storage SQLAlchemy model classes
+
+storage package 禁止 import：
+
+```python
+import app.gateway
+import app.infra
+import deerflow.runtime
+```
+
+依赖方向必须是：
+
+```text
+app/gateway -> app.infra.storage -> packages/storage contracts/factories -> packages/storage db implementations
+```
+
+禁止反向依赖。
+
+## Checkpointer 兼容
+
+storage persistence bundle 会同时初始化 LangGraph checkpointer 和应用数据持久化。
+
+backend 说明：
+
+- SQLite 使用 `langgraph-checkpoint-sqlite`。
+- PostgreSQL 使用 `langgraph-checkpoint-postgres`，需要字符串形式的 `postgresql://...` 连接串。
+- MySQL 使用 `langgraph-checkpoint-mysql`，需要字符串形式的 MySQL 连接串。
+
+SQLAlchemy 可以使用 `postgresql+asyncpg://...` 或 `mysql+aiomysql://...` 这类 async driver URL，但 LangGraph checkpointer 构造函数需要普通字符串连接串。这个转换应该封装在 storage driver implementation 内部。
+
+## JSON Metadata Filtering
+
+Thread metadata search 通过 `store.persistence.json_compat` 支持跨方言 JSON filtering。
+
+支持的 filter value 类型：
+
+- `None`
+- `bool`
+- `int`
+- `float`
+- `str`
+
+拒绝：
+
+- unsafe keys
+- nested JSON path expressions
+- dict/list values
+- 超出 signed 64-bit 范围的整数
+
+这样可以避免 SQL/JSON path injection，避免 compiled-cache 类型漂移，并保留类型语义，例如 `True != 1`，显式 JSON `null` 不等于 missing key。
+
+## 分步实现方案
+
+### 第 1 步：新增 Storage Package 基础
+
+- 新增 `backend/packages/storage`。
+- 增加 storage config models。
+- 增加 `AppPersistence`。
+- 增加 SQLite/PostgreSQL/MySQL persistence drivers。
+- 增加 repository contracts、models、DB implementations 和 factory helpers。
+- 接入 package dependency。
+- 排除 cron persistence。
+
+### 第 2 步：补齐 Storage Backend 兼容性
+
+- 验证 SQLite setup 和 repository 行为。
+- 使用本地 E2E 验证 PostgreSQL 和 MySQL。
+- 修复 checkpointer 连接串兼容。
+- 修复 PostgreSQL locking 和 aggregation 差异。
+- 增加跨方言 JSON metadata filtering。
+
+### 第 3 步：新增 App Infra Adapters
+
+- 新增 `backend/app/infra/storage`。
+- 实现 app-facing repositories，由它们管理 session 生命周期。
+- 保持 storage contracts 作为唯一数据访问边界。
+- 为现有 app/gateway method shape 增加兼容 adapters。
+- 避免 `packages/storage` import app/gateway。
+
+### 第 4 步：切换 FastAPI Runtime 注入
+
+- 在 FastAPI startup/lifespan 中初始化 storage persistence。
+- 将 `persistence`、`checkpointer`、`session_factory` 注入 `app.state`。
+- 暂时保留现有对外 state 名称：
+  - `run_store`
+  - `feedback_repo`
+  - `thread_store`
+  - `run_event_store`
+  - `checkpointer`
+  - `session_factory`
+- 先切 user/auth provider 构造，再逐步迁移 run/thread/feedback/run_event。
+
+### 第 5 步：Router 和 Auth 兼容
+
+- 确保 routers 消费 app-facing adapters，而不是 storage DB classes。
+- 确保 auth providers 依赖 user repository contracts。
+- 保持 router response shapes 不变。
+- 增加 auth/admin/router regression tests。
+
+### 第 6 步：清理旧 Persistence
+
+- app/gateway 迁移完成后，再比较旧 persistence usage。
+- 所有 call sites 迁移完成后，再删除未使用的旧 repository implementations。
+- 只在必要时保留短期 compatibility shims。
+- 从 storage-owned durable persistence 中移除 memory backend 路径。
+
+## 测试策略
+
+单测应覆盖：
+
+- config parsing
+- persistence setup
+- table creation
+- repository CRUD/query behavior
+- typed JSON metadata filtering
+- dialect SQL compilation
+- cron exclusion
+
+E2E 应覆盖：
+
+- SQLite persistence setup
+- PostgreSQL temporary database setup
+- MySQL temporary database setup
+- 所有支持 SQL backend 下的 repository contract 行为
+- JSON/Unicode round trip
+- rollback behavior
+- persistence close/cleanup
+
+如果 CI 暂时没有 PostgreSQL/MySQL services，E2E 可以先作为 local-only 验证保留。

 ## 关键设计点
 
 ### ClarificationMiddleware 为什么在列表最后？
 
-位置最后使它在工具调用包装链中优先拦截 `ask_clarification`。如果命中，它返回 `Command(goto=END)`，把格式化后的澄清问题写成 `ToolMessage` 并中断执行。
+位置最后 = `after_model` 最先执行。它需要**第一个**看到 model 输出，检查是否有 `ask_clarification` tool call。如果有，立即中断（`Command(goto=END)`），后续 middleware 的 `after_model` 不再执行。
 
 ### SandboxMiddleware 的对称性
 
 `before_agent`（正序第 3 个）获取沙箱，`after_agent`（反序第 1 个）释放沙箱。外层进入 → 外层退出，天然的洋葱对称。
 
-### LoopDetectionMiddleware 为什么同时用多个钩子？
+### 大部分 middleware 只用一个钩子
 
-`after_model` 只做检测：重复工具调用达到 warning 阈值时，把 warning 放入 `(thread_id, run_id)` 作用域的 pending 队列。真正注入发生在下一次 `wrap_model_call`：此时上一轮 `AIMessage(tool_calls)` 对应的 `ToolMessage` 已经在请求里，warning 追加在末尾，不会破坏 OpenAI/Moonshot 的 tool-call pairing。`before_agent` 清理同一 thread 下旧 run 的残留 warning，`after_agent` 清理当前 run 没被消费的 warning。
+14 个 middleware 中，只有 SandboxMiddleware 同时用了 `before_agent` + `after_agent`（获取/释放）。其余都只在一个阶段执行。洋葱模型的反序特性主要影响 `after_model` 阶段的执行顺序。

-Why the warning is injected at ``wrap_model_call`` instead of
-``after_model``:
-
-  ``after_model`` fires immediately after the model emits an
-  ``AIMessage`` that may carry ``tool_calls``. The tools node has not
-  run yet, so no matching ``ToolMessage`` exists in the history. Any
-  message we add here lands *between* the assistant's tool_calls and
-  their responses. OpenAI/Moonshot reject the next request with
-  ``"tool_call_ids did not have response messages"`` because their
-  validators require the assistant's tool_calls to be followed
-  immediately by tool messages. Anthropic also disallows mid-stream
-  ``SystemMessage``. By deferring the warning to ``wrap_model_call``,
-  every prior ToolMessage is already present in the request's message
-  list and the warning is appended at the end — pairing intact, no
-  ``AIMessage`` semantics are mutated.
-
-Queued warnings are intentionally transient. If a run ends before the
-next model request drains a queued warning, ``after_agent`` drops it
-instead of carrying it into a later invocation for the same thread. The
-hard-stop path still forces termination when the configured safety limit
-is reached.
