📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This PR introduces optimistic profile updates with background persistence, deduplicates overlapping envelope metadata, caches profile/registry data with TTL-based invalidation, refactors file proxy handling, enhances the discovery interface with public profile browsing, and adds admin impersonation and conditional asset preview/rendering across API and client.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
eVault Core Database & GraphQL infrastructure/evault-core/src/core/db/db.service.ts, infrastructure/evault-core/src/core/protocol/graphql-server.ts	updateMetaEnvelopeById now deduplicates envelopes sharing the same ontology, switches from CREATE to MERGE for relationship construction with ON CREATE/MATCH SET logic, and logs duplicate counts. GraphQL responses for createMetaEnvelope and updateMetaEnvelope now populate parsed field from result envelopes rather than echoing input payload.
Profile API Controllers platforms/profile-editor/api/src/controllers/DiscoveryController.ts, platforms/profile-editor/api/src/controllers/ProfileController.ts, platforms/profile-editor/api/src/controllers/WebhookController.ts, platforms/profile-editor/api/src/index.ts	Discovery endpoint now conditionally searches or lists public profiles based on query presence; default limit changed to 12. ProfileController adds sync service integration, resolves ename override via query parameter, replaces direct upsert with optimistic updates, refactors asset authorization, and wires sync service during initialization. WebhookController adds diagnostic logging.
Profile API Caching & Persistence Services platforms/profile-editor/api/src/services/EVaultProfileService.ts, platforms/profile-editor/api/src/services/RegistryService.ts, platforms/profile-editor/api/src/services/UserSearchService.ts	EVaultProfileService introduces per-user caching with TTL, write queueing for serialization, and replaces upsertProfile with prepareUpdate returning a PreparedWrite with immediate cache update and deferred persistence. RegistryService caches resolveEName results (10-min TTL). UserSearchService adds listPublicUsers method for public profile discovery.
Profile API Search Sync & File Proxy platforms/profile-editor/api/src/services/EVaultSyncService.ts, platforms/profile-editor/api/src/utils/file-proxy.ts, platforms/profile-editor/api/src/web3adapter/watchers/subscriber.ts	EVaultSyncService introduces syncUserToSearchDb to sync cached profiles asynchronously. File proxy replaces mode parameter with disposition, always attempts preview endpoint first, overrides cache headers to no-cache, and derives filenames from upstream headers. Subscriber adds table-change debug logging.
Profile Client Components platforms/profile-editor/client/src/lib/components/profile/DocumentsSection.svelte, platforms/profile-editor/client/src/lib/components/profile/EducationSection.svelte, platforms/profile-editor/client/src/lib/components/profile/ExperienceSection.svelte, platforms/profile-editor/client/src/lib/components/profile/ProfileCard.svelte, platforms/profile-editor/client/src/lib/components/profile/ProfileHeader.svelte	Components add conditional rendering for empty fields (Education, Experience), preview UI for CV/video assets (Documents), centered avatar/card layout with multi-line headline clamping (ProfileCard), and local object URL previews for avatar/banner uploads with error state handling (ProfileHeader).
Profile Client Stores & Utils platforms/profile-editor/client/src/lib/stores/discovery.ts, platforms/profile-editor/client/src/lib/stores/profile.ts, platforms/profile-editor/client/src/lib/utils/file-manager.ts, platforms/profile-editor/client/src/routes/(protected)/discover/+page.svelte, platforms/profile-editor/client/src/routes/(protected)/profile/+page.svelte, platforms/profile-editor/client/src/routes/(protected)/settings/+page.svelte	Discovery store conditionally includes q parameter. Profile store adds admin impersonation override accessors and appends query suffix to all profile mutations. File manager removes explicit Content-Type header for multipart uploads. Discover route adds debounced search, initial public profile load, and empty-state UI. Profile route reads as query parameter for admin override. Settings page performs optimistic UI update for public profile toggle with revert on failure.

🐰 Caches bloom and queues align,
Envelopes dedupe so fine!
Profiles preview, searched with care,
Async magic floats through air—
One hop closer, crystal clear! ✨
