Generated Wiki Stale Purge Implementation Plan
For agentic workers: REQUIRED SUB-SKILL: Use superpowers:subagent-driven-development (recommended) or superpowers:executing-plans to implement this plan task-by-task. Steps use checkbox (
- [ ]) syntax for tracking.
Goal: Add an opt-in purge stale policy that permanently removes only manifest-tracked generated NodeBB wiki topics that no longer exist in current generator output.
Architecture: Keep stale ownership and candidate selection inside the existing deploy-wiki manifest planner. Extend the deploy result/plan model with purge counts and purge actions, add a thin NodeBB topic purge client call, remove successfully purged entries from the next manifest, and surface the policy through existing toolkit validation and module release/docs paths.
Tech Stack: Go toolkit code and httptest deploy tests, YAML-backed toolkit project config validation, POSIX shell module release wrapper, Markdown docs.

Task 1: Align Stale Policy Validation
Files:
-
Modify:
internal/project/project.go -
Modify:
internal/project/project_test.go -
Step 1: Write the failing project-config test
Add a project validation case in internal/project/project_test.go that loads stale policy config with purge and expects validation to pass:
func TestProjectValidationAcceptsWikiStalePurgePolicy(t *testing.T) {
root := t.TempDir()
writeProjectFile(t, filepath.Join(root, ConfigFile), `
module:
name: Test Module
resref: testmod
topdata:
wiki:
stale_pages:
default: report
live_cleanup: purge
`)
proj, err := Load(root)
if err != nil {
t.Fatalf("load project: %v", err)
}
if err := proj.ValidateLayout(); err != nil {
t.Fatalf("validate purge stale policy: %v", err)
}
}
- Step 2: Run the focused test to verify it fails
Run:
go test ./internal/project -run TestProjectValidationAcceptsWikiStalePurgePolicy -count=1
Expected: FAIL because topdata.wiki.stale_pages.live_cleanup "purge" is not supported.
- Step 3: Replace unsupported project validation vocabulary
In internal/project/project.go, update the stale-policy switch from:
switch policy {
case "report", "archive", "unpublish":
default:
failures = append(failures, fmt.Errorf("%s %q is not supported", key, policy))
}
to:
switch policy {
case "report", "archive", "purge":
default:
failures = append(failures, fmt.Errorf("%s %q is not supported", key, policy))
}
This removes the config-only unpublish value that the deploy command cannot execute.
- Step 4: Add the unsupported-policy regression
Add or extend a project validation test so unpublish and an arbitrary bad value fail:
func TestProjectValidationRejectsUnsupportedWikiStalePolicies(t *testing.T) {
for _, policy := range []string{"unpublish", "remove-everything"} {
t.Run(policy, func(t *testing.T) {
root := t.TempDir()
writeProjectFile(t, filepath.Join(root, ConfigFile), fmt.Sprintf(`
module:
name: Test Module
resref: testmod
topdata:
wiki:
stale_pages:
live_cleanup: %s
`, policy))
proj, err := Load(root)
if err != nil {
t.Fatalf("load project: %v", err)
}
err = proj.ValidateLayout()
if err == nil || !strings.Contains(err.Error(), policy) {
t.Fatalf("expected %q stale policy validation failure, got %v", policy, err)
}
})
}
}
Add fmt to the existing internal/project/project_test.go imports for the Sprintf YAML fixture.
- Step 5: Run project tests
Run:
go test ./internal/project -count=1
Expected: PASS.
- Step 6: Commit the validation change
git add internal/project/project.go internal/project/project_test.go
git commit -m "feat: validate wiki stale purge policy"
Task 2: Plan Manifest-Scoped Purge Actions
Files:
-
Modify:
internal/topdata/wiki_deploy.go -
Modify:
internal/topdata/wiki_deploy_test.go -
Step 1: Write failing deploy tests for dry-run purge planning
In internal/topdata/wiki_deploy_test.go, add:
func TestDeployWikiDryRunPlansTrackedStalePagePurge(t *testing.T) {
root := t.TempDir()
sourceDir := filepath.Join(root, "pages")
if err := os.MkdirAll(filepath.Join(sourceDir, "skills"), 0755); err != nil {
t.Fatalf("create source dir: %v", err)
}
manifestPath := filepath.Join(root, "deploy-manifest.json")
if err := saveDeployManifest(manifestPath, wikiDeployManifest{
Version: "nodebb-v1",
Pages: map[string]wikiDeployManifestPage{
"skills:retired": {Hash: "old-hash", Title: "Retired Skill", Namespace: "skills", TID: 7, PID: 42, CID: 3},
},
}); err != nil {
t.Fatalf("write deploy manifest: %v", err)
}
server := httptest.NewServer(http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
t.Fatalf("dry-run purge must not call NodeBB, got %s %s", r.Method, r.URL.Path)
}))
defer server.Close()
result, err := DeployWikiWithOptions(&project.Project{}, DeployWikiOptions{
SourceDir: sourceDir,
Endpoint: server.URL,
Token: "nodebb-token",
ManifestPath: manifestPath,
DryRun: true,
StalePolicy: "purge",
}, nil)
if err != nil {
t.Fatalf("DeployWikiWithOptions stale purge dry run failed: %v", err)
}
if result.Stale != 1 || result.Purged != 1 {
t.Fatalf("expected one planned stale purge, got %#v", result)
}
if _, ok := loadDeployManifest(manifestPath).Pages["skills:retired"]; !ok {
t.Fatalf("dry-run purge must not change the deploy manifest")
}
}
- Step 2: Write the failing missing-topic-id test
Add:
func TestDeployWikiPurgeRefusesStaleManifestEntryWithoutTopicID(t *testing.T) {
root := t.TempDir()
sourceDir := filepath.Join(root, "pages")
if err := os.MkdirAll(filepath.Join(sourceDir, "skills"), 0755); err != nil {
t.Fatalf("create source dir: %v", err)
}
manifestPath := filepath.Join(root, "deploy-manifest.json")
if err := saveDeployManifest(manifestPath, wikiDeployManifest{
Version: "nodebb-v1",
Pages: map[string]wikiDeployManifestPage{
"skills:retired": {Hash: "old-hash", Title: "Retired Skill", Namespace: "skills", PID: 42, CID: 3},
},
}); err != nil {
t.Fatalf("write deploy manifest: %v", err)
}
server := httptest.NewServer(http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
t.Fatalf("missing-topic-id purge must not call NodeBB, got %s %s", r.Method, r.URL.Path)
}))
defer server.Close()
_, err := DeployWikiWithOptions(&project.Project{}, DeployWikiOptions{
SourceDir: sourceDir,
Endpoint: server.URL,
Token: "nodebb-token",
ManifestPath: manifestPath,
DryRun: true,
StalePolicy: "purge",
}, nil)
if err == nil || !strings.Contains(err.Error(), "topic id") {
t.Fatalf("expected stale purge to require tracked topic id, got %v", err)
}
}
- Step 3: Run the focused tests to verify they fail
Run:
go test ./internal/topdata -run 'TestDeployWiki.*Purge' -count=1
Expected: FAIL because purge is not yet accepted and deployResult has no Purged field.
- Step 4: Add purge plan/result model fields
In internal/topdata/wiki_deploy.go, extend deployResult:
type deployResult struct {
LocalPages int
Created int
Updated int
Stale int
Archived int
Purged int
Skipped int
Drifted int
Renamed int
Manifest string
}
Allow purge during deploy option validation:
if opts.StalePolicy != "" &&
opts.StalePolicy != "report" &&
opts.StalePolicy != "archive" &&
opts.StalePolicy != "purge" {
return deployResult{}, fmt.Errorf("wiki stale policy %q is not supported", opts.StalePolicy)
}
Add the purge count to the deploy plan progress line so dry-run logs show the destructive action explicitly:
progress(fmt.Sprintf("NodeBB wiki plan: create %d, update %d, rename %d, skip %d, stale %d, archive %d, purge %d, drift %d",
result.Created,
result.Updated,
result.Renamed,
result.Skipped,
result.Stale,
result.Archived,
result.Purged,
result.Drifted,
))
- Step 5: Add stale purge planning
In the stale manifest loop inside planNodeBBDeploy, keep the current report/archive branches and add the purge branch:
case "purge":
if entry.TID == 0 {
return nil, result, next, fmt.Errorf("stale generated wiki page %q cannot be purged without tracked NodeBB topic id", pageID)
}
result.Purged++
delete(next.Pages, pageID)
plans = append(plans, wikiDeployPlan{
Page: wikiDeployPage{PageID: pageID, Title: entry.Title, Namespace: entry.Namespace},
Entry: entry,
Action: "purge",
})
Use a switch policy or equivalent structure so report, archive, and purge remain explicit. Do not add namespace search or title matching to find purge targets.
- Step 6: Run the focused purge planning tests
Run:
go test ./internal/topdata -run 'TestDeployWiki.*Purge' -count=1
Expected: the dry-run and missing-topic-id purge tests pass once they compile.
- Step 7: Commit purge planning
git add internal/topdata/wiki_deploy.go internal/topdata/wiki_deploy_test.go
git commit -m "feat: plan stale generated wiki purges"
Task 3: Execute NodeBB Topic Purges
Files:
-
Modify:
internal/topdata/wiki_deploy.go -
Modify:
internal/topdata/wiki_deploy_test.go -
Step 1: Write the failing live purge test
Add a live stale purge test in internal/topdata/wiki_deploy_test.go:
func TestDeployWikiPurgesTrackedStaleGeneratedTopic(t *testing.T) {
root := t.TempDir()
sourceDir := filepath.Join(root, "pages")
if err := os.MkdirAll(filepath.Join(sourceDir, "skills"), 0755); err != nil {
t.Fatalf("create source dir: %v", err)
}
manifestPath := filepath.Join(root, "deploy-manifest.json")
if err := saveDeployManifest(manifestPath, wikiDeployManifest{
Version: "nodebb-v1",
Pages: map[string]wikiDeployManifestPage{
"skills:retired": {Hash: "old-hash", Title: "Retired Skill", Namespace: "skills", TID: 7, PID: 42, CID: 3},
},
}); err != nil {
t.Fatalf("write deploy manifest: %v", err)
}
server := httptest.NewServer(http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
if r.Method != http.MethodDelete || r.URL.Path != "/api/v3/topics/7" {
t.Fatalf("unexpected request %s %s", r.Method, r.URL.Path)
}
w.Header().Set("Content-Type", "application/json")
_ = json.NewEncoder(w).Encode(map[string]any{"status": map[string]any{"code": "ok"}})
}))
defer server.Close()
result, err := DeployWikiWithOptions(&project.Project{}, DeployWikiOptions{
SourceDir: sourceDir,
Endpoint: server.URL,
Token: "nodebb-token",
ManifestPath: manifestPath,
StalePolicy: "purge",
}, nil)
if err != nil {
t.Fatalf("DeployWikiWithOptions stale purge failed: %v", err)
}
if result.Stale != 1 || result.Purged != 1 {
t.Fatalf("expected one stale purge, got %#v", result)
}
if _, ok := loadDeployManifest(manifestPath).Pages["skills:retired"]; ok {
t.Fatalf("expected purged stale manifest entry to be removed")
}
}
This route is the NodeBB core purge route. DELETE /api/v3/topics/:tid/state is the separate soft-delete route and must not be used here.
- Step 2: Run the live purge test to verify it fails
Run:
go test ./internal/topdata -run 'TestDeployWiki.*Live.*Purge|TestDeployWiki.*Purges.*Stale' -count=1
Expected: FAIL because purge plans are not yet executed by the NodeBB client.
- Step 3: Add the NodeBB purge client method
Place a thin method near updatePost and renameWikiPage in internal/topdata/wiki_deploy.go:
func (c *nodeBBClient) purgeTopic(tid int) error {
if tid == 0 {
return fmt.Errorf("NodeBB topic purge requires topic id")
}
return c.request(http.MethodDelete, fmt.Sprintf("/api/v3/topics/%d", tid), nil, nil)
}
- Step 4: Execute purge plans
In the live plan execution switch, add:
case "purge":
if err := client.purgeTopic(plan.Entry.TID); err != nil {
return result, fmt.Errorf("deploy wiki page %q: purge NodeBB topic %d: %w", plan.Page.PageID, plan.Entry.TID, err)
}
Do not acquire wiki edit locks for purge: the NodeBB topic purge endpoint owns its own privilege checks.
- Step 5: Keep current generated pages out of purge coverage
Add this test so a current generated page with the same manifest page id is skipped instead of purged:
func TestDeployWikiPurgeDoesNotTargetCurrentGeneratedPages(t *testing.T) {
root := t.TempDir()
sourceDir := filepath.Join(root, "pages")
if err := os.MkdirAll(filepath.Join(sourceDir, "skills"), 0755); err != nil {
t.Fatalf("create source dir: %v", err)
}
generated := "[//]: # (sow-topdata-wiki:managed:start)\n# Athletics\n\nGenerated athletics page\n[//]: # (sow-topdata-wiki:managed:end)\n"
if err := os.WriteFile(filepath.Join(sourceDir, "skills", "athletics.md"), []byte(generated), 0644); err != nil {
t.Fatalf("write source page: %v", err)
}
manifestPath := filepath.Join(root, "deploy-manifest.json")
if err := saveDeployManifest(manifestPath, wikiDeployManifest{
Version: "nodebb-v1",
Pages: map[string]wikiDeployManifestPage{
"skills:athletics": {
Hash: computeManagedHash(generated),
Title: "Athletics",
Namespace: "skills",
TID: 7,
PID: 42,
CID: 3,
},
},
}); err != nil {
t.Fatalf("write deploy manifest: %v", err)
}
server := httptest.NewServer(http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
t.Fatalf("current generated page must not call NodeBB during matching-hash deploy, got %s %s", r.Method, r.URL.Path)
}))
defer server.Close()
result, err := DeployWikiWithOptions(&project.Project{}, DeployWikiOptions{
SourceDir: sourceDir,
Endpoint: server.URL,
Token: "nodebb-token",
ManifestPath: manifestPath,
StalePolicy: "purge",
}, nil)
if err != nil {
t.Fatalf("DeployWikiWithOptions current page purge deploy failed: %v", err)
}
if result.Stale != 0 || result.Purged != 0 || result.Skipped != 1 {
t.Fatalf("expected current generated page to skip purge, got %#v", result)
}
if _, ok := loadDeployManifest(manifestPath).Pages["skills:athletics"]; !ok {
t.Fatalf("expected current generated page to remain in deploy manifest")
}
}
- Step 6: Run deploy tests
Run:
go test ./internal/topdata -run 'TestDeployWiki' -count=1
Expected: PASS.
- Step 7: Commit purge execution
git add internal/topdata/wiki_deploy.go internal/topdata/wiki_deploy_test.go
git commit -m "feat: purge stale generated wiki topics"
Task 4: Surface Purge In Toolkit CLI And Docs
Files:
-
Modify:
internal/app/app.go -
Modify:
internal/app/app_test.go -
Modify:
README.md -
Step 1: Write failing CLI-output coverage
In internal/app/app_test.go, extend TestTopdataConsoleDebugProgressAndRelativePaths so the sample progress and emit call include a purge count:
console.progress("NodeBB wiki plan: create 1, update 2, skip 3, stale 4, archive 5, purge 6, drift 0")
console.emitWikiDeployResult(10, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 0, "/workspace/project/build/wiki/deploy-manifest.json")
Assert:
if !strings.Contains(output, "purged: 6") {
t.Fatalf("expected purged deploy count, got %q", output)
}
Update the debug progress expectation to include purge 6.
- Step 2: Run focused app tests to verify failure
Run:
go test ./internal/app -run TestTopdataConsoleDebugProgressAndRelativePaths -count=1
Expected: FAIL because emitWikiDeployResult does not yet take a purge count.
- Step 3: Print purge counts
Update the emit signature and output in internal/app/app.go:
func (c *topdataConsole) emitWikiDeployResult(localPages, created, updated, skipped, stale, archived, purged, drifted int, manifest string) {
spin.linebreak()
fmt.Fprintln(c.stdout, "Deploy Wiki ----------")
fmt.Fprintf(c.stdout, "project: %s\n", c.projectName)
fmt.Fprintf(c.stdout, "local pages: %d\n", localPages)
fmt.Fprintf(c.stdout, "created: %d\n", created)
fmt.Fprintf(c.stdout, "updated: %d\n", updated)
fmt.Fprintf(c.stdout, "skipped: %d\n", skipped)
fmt.Fprintf(c.stdout, "stale: %d\n", stale)
fmt.Fprintf(c.stdout, "archived: %d\n", archived)
fmt.Fprintf(c.stdout, "purged: %d\n", purged)
fmt.Fprintf(c.stdout, "drifted: %d\n", drifted)
fmt.Fprintf(c.stdout, "manifest: %s\n", c.relPath(manifest))
}
Pass result.Purged from the deploy command call site.
- Step 4: Update CLI usage text
Change deploy-wiki help text in internal/app/app.go from:
[--stale-policy <report|archive>]
to:
[--stale-policy <report|archive|purge>]
Add this focused help assertion in internal/app/app_test.go:
func TestParseDeployWikiHelpListsPurgeStalePolicy(t *testing.T) {
_, err := parseDeployWikiArgs("deploy-wiki", []string{"--help"})
if err == nil || !strings.Contains(err.Error(), "--stale-policy <report|archive|purge>") {
t.Fatalf("expected deploy-wiki help to list purge stale policy, got %v", err)
}
}
- Step 5: Update toolkit README
In README.md, update the deploy-wiki usage and stale-page explanation so it states:
`--stale-policy purge` permanently removes only stale generated topics already
tracked in the wiki deploy manifest. Dry-run that policy before the live run;
it never discovers manual wiki pages from NodeBB for purge.
Keep report as the documented default and archive as the nondestructive cleanup option.
- Step 6: Run app tests
Run:
go test ./internal/app -count=1
Expected: PASS.
- Step 7: Commit toolkit CLI/docs
git add internal/app/app.go internal/app/app_test.go README.md
git commit -m "docs: expose wiki stale purge policy"
Task 5: Expose Purge Through Module Release Workflow
Files:
-
Modify:
../module/scripts/release-all.sh -
Modify:
../module/README.md -
Modify:
../module/topdata/README.md -
Modify:
../module/tests/release-all-cache-cleanup.sh -
Step 1: Write failing release wrapper coverage
In ../module/tests/release-all-cache-cleanup.sh, set the stale policy in the existing release invocation:
SOW_MODULE_WIKI_DEPLOY_STALE_POLICY="purge" \
TAG_NAME="v-test" \
"${CHECKOUT}/scripts/release-all.sh" >"${TEST_TMP}/stdout.log" 2>"${TEST_TMP}/stderr.log"
Update the wiki log expectations from:
grep -Fxq "deploy-wiki --dry-run --create" "${TEST_TMP}/wiki.log" \
|| fail "wiki dry run was not invoked"
grep -Fxq "deploy-wiki --create" "${TEST_TMP}/wiki.log" \
|| fail "wiki deploy was not invoked"
to:
grep -Fxq "deploy-wiki --dry-run --create --stale-policy purge" "${TEST_TMP}/wiki.log" \
|| fail "wiki stale purge dry run was not invoked"
grep -Fxq "deploy-wiki --create --stale-policy purge" "${TEST_TMP}/wiki.log" \
|| fail "wiki stale purge deploy was not invoked"
Update the API ordering assertion to match the new dry-run log line:
$0 == "WIKI deploy-wiki --dry-run --create --stale-policy purge" { wiki_dry_run = NR }
- Step 2: Run the release wrapper test to verify it fails
Run from ../module:
./tests/release-all-cache-cleanup.sh
Expected: FAIL because scripts/release-all.sh rejects SOW_MODULE_WIKI_DEPLOY_STALE_POLICY=purge.
- Step 3: Update release wrapper validation
In ../module/scripts/release-all.sh, change:
if [[ "${SOW_MODULE_WIKI_DEPLOY_STALE_POLICY}" != "report" && "${SOW_MODULE_WIKI_DEPLOY_STALE_POLICY}" != "archive" ]]; then
echo "Unsupported SOW_MODULE_WIKI_DEPLOY_STALE_POLICY=${SOW_MODULE_WIKI_DEPLOY_STALE_POLICY}; expected report or archive" >&2
return 1
fi
to:
if [[ "${SOW_MODULE_WIKI_DEPLOY_STALE_POLICY}" != "report" && "${SOW_MODULE_WIKI_DEPLOY_STALE_POLICY}" != "archive" && "${SOW_MODULE_WIKI_DEPLOY_STALE_POLICY}" != "purge" ]]; then
echo "Unsupported SOW_MODULE_WIKI_DEPLOY_STALE_POLICY=${SOW_MODULE_WIKI_DEPLOY_STALE_POLICY}; expected report, archive, or purge" >&2
return 1
fi
The existing dry-run/live deploy argument plumbing already forwards every non-report stale policy through --stale-policy.
- Step 4: Run the release wrapper test
Run from ../module:
./tests/release-all-cache-cleanup.sh
Expected: PASS and both release wiki deploy phases include --stale-policy purge.
- Step 5: Document release controls
In ../module/README.md, revise the environment variable bullet to name both destructive modes explicitly:
- `SOW_MODULE_WIKI_DEPLOY_STALE_POLICY` (defaults to `report`; use `archive`
after a controlled dry run to retire stale generated pages in place, or
`purge` after a controlled dry run to permanently remove stale generated
topics already tracked in the wiki deploy manifest)
In the wiki deployment paragraph, replace the archive-only sentence with a sentence that keeps these boundaries:
-
reportis default -
archiverewrites stale generated pages in place -
purgepermanently removes only manifest-tracked stale generated topics -
manual NodeBB wiki pages are not purge candidates
-
Step 6: Document local deploy controls
In ../module/topdata/README.md, replace:
reports stale manifest entries by default and can archive them in place with `--stale-policy archive`; it does not delete topics
with:
reports stale manifest entries by default, can archive them in place with
`--stale-policy archive`, and can permanently purge only manifest-tracked stale
generated topics with `--stale-policy purge` after a dry run
- Step 7: Check module diffs
Run:
git -C ../module diff --check
git -C ../module diff -- scripts/release-all.sh tests/release-all-cache-cleanup.sh README.md topdata/README.md
Expected: no whitespace failures; diff shows only wrapper policy vocabulary, wrapper coverage, and docs.
- Step 8: Commit module wrapper/docs
Run from ../module:
git add scripts/release-all.sh tests/release-all-cache-cleanup.sh README.md topdata/README.md
git commit -m "docs: allow generated wiki stale purges"
Task 6: Full Verification And Operator Notes
Files:
-
Verify: toolkit and module working trees
-
Step 1: Format Go changes
Run from toolkit:
gofmt -w internal/project/project.go internal/project/project_test.go internal/topdata/wiki_deploy.go internal/topdata/wiki_deploy_test.go internal/app/app.go internal/app/app_test.go
Expected: command exits 0.
- Step 2: Run toolkit verification
Run from toolkit:
go test ./internal/project ./internal/topdata ./internal/app
go test ./...
git diff --check
Expected: all tests pass and diff check emits no whitespace errors.
- Step 3: Build the toolkit development binary
Run from toolkit:
./build-tool.sh
Expected: tools/sow-toolkit is rebuilt successfully for module wrapper verification.
- Step 4: Run module verification with the development binary
Run from module:
SOW_TOOLS_DEV_BINARY=../toolkit/tools/sow-toolkit ./validate-topdata.sh
SOW_TOOLS_DEV_BINARY=../toolkit/tools/sow-toolkit ./build-wiki.sh --force
git diff --check
Expected: topdata validation and wiki build pass; module diff check emits no whitespace errors.
- Step 5: Record the cleanup command in the final handoff
The final implementation response must state that destructive cleanup is opt-in and show the operator sequence:
./deploy-wiki.sh --dry-run --stale-policy purge
./deploy-wiki.sh --stale-policy purge
For tag-triggered module release automation, state the equivalent variable:
SOW_MODULE_WIKI_DEPLOY_STALE_POLICY=purge
The handoff must mention that purge targets only stale generated pages already tracked in the deploy manifest and permanently removes their NodeBB topics/posts.
