## ⚠️ Issues in Code You Touched (Should Fix)

**Status**: ✅ NO ISSUES FOUND

### better-sqlite3 Usage Analysis

**New Code Introduced** (Line 63-66 in dependency-repository.ts):
```typescript
this.resolveDependenciesBatchStmt = this.db.prepare(`
  UPDATE task_dependencies
  SET resolution = ?, resolved_at = ?
  WHERE depends_on_task_id = ? AND resolution = 'pending'
`);
```

**Usage Pattern** (Line 459 in dependency-repository.ts):
```typescript
const result = this.resolveDependenciesBatchStmt.run(resolution, resolvedAt, dependsOnTaskId);
return result.changes;
```

**Analysis**:
- ✅ Uses prepared statements (secure, performant)
- ✅ Parameterized queries prevent SQL injection
- ✅ Accesses `result.changes` property (valid better-sqlite3 API)
- ✅ Wrapped in tryCatchAsync for error handling
- ✅ Follows same pattern as existing `resolveDependencyStmt`

**Comparison with Existing Code**:
```typescript
// Existing pattern (line 57-60)
this.resolveDependencyStmt = this.db.prepare(`...`);

// New pattern (line 63-66)
this.resolveDependenciesBatchStmt = this.db.prepare(`...`);
```

**Result**: ✅ PASS - Consistent with existing better-sqlite3 usage patterns.

## ℹ️ Pre-existing Issues (Not Blocking)

**Status**: ⚠️ 2 VULNERABILITIES IN DEV DEPENDENCIES (not introduced by this PR)

### NPM Audit Results (Pre-existing)

These vulnerabilities exist in the main branch and are NOT introduced by this PR:

#### 1. HIGH: glob CLI Command Injection (GHSA-5j98-mcp5-4vw2)
- **Severity**: HIGH
- **CVE**: CVE-2025-XXXXX
- **Package**: glob@10.3.7-10.4.5 (transitive dependency)
- **Impact**: Command injection via -c/--cmd flag
- **Scope**: Development only (via vitest/vite)
- **Fix Available**: ✅ Yes - `npm audit fix`
- **Production Impact**: ❌ None - not used in runtime

#### 2. MODERATE: vite Path Traversal (GHSA-93m4-6634-74q7)
- **Severity**: MODERATE  
- **Package**: vite@7.1.0-7.1.10 (dev dependency)
- **Impact**: Windows path traversal via backslash bypass
- **Scope**: Development only
- **Fix Available**: ✅ Yes - `npm audit fix`
- **Production Impact**: ❌ None - dev tool only

**Recommendation**: Run `npm audit fix` in separate PR to update dev dependencies.

### Outdated Dependencies (Pre-existing)

Notable outdated packages in main branch:

| Package | Current | Latest | Impact |
|---------|---------|--------|--------|
| @modelcontextprotocol/sdk | 1.19.1 | 1.22.0 | Production |
| zod | 3.25.76 | 4.1.12 | Production (MAJOR) |
| simple-git | 3.28.0 | 3.30.0 | Production |
| @types/node | 24.3.0 | 24.10.1 | Dev |
| vitest | 3.2.4 | 4.0.10 | Dev (MAJOR) |

**Recommendation**: 
- Update MCP SDK and simple-git (minor versions) - Low risk
- Defer zod v4 and vitest v4 upgrades - Require testing for MAJOR version changes

---

## Detailed Code Analysis

### 1. New Interface Method (interfaces.ts)

**Lines Added**: 132-140

```typescript
/**
 * Batch resolve all dependencies that depend on a completed task
 * PERFORMANCE: Single UPDATE query instead of N+1 queries (7-10× faster)
 * @param dependsOnTaskId The task that completed/failed/cancelled
 * @param resolution The resolution state to apply to all dependents
 * @returns Number of dependencies resolved
 */
resolveDependenciesBatch(dependsOnTaskId: TaskId, resolution: 'completed' | 'failed' | 'cancelled'): Promise<Result<number>>;
```

**Dependency Impact**: ✅ None - Pure TypeScript interface definition

---

### 2. Implementation (dependency-repository.ts)

**New Prepared Statement** (Lines 63-66):
```typescript
this.resolveDependenciesBatchStmt = this.db.prepare(`
  UPDATE task_dependencies
  SET resolution = ?, resolved_at = ?
  WHERE depends_on_task_id = ? AND resolution = 'pending'
`);
```

**Security Analysis**:
- ✅ Parameterized query (no SQL injection risk)
- ✅ Uses WHERE clause to prevent unintended updates
- ✅ Filters by `resolution = 'pending'` (idempotent)

**New Method Implementation** (Lines 430-468):

```typescript
async resolveDependenciesBatch(
  dependsOnTaskId: TaskId,
  resolution: 'completed' | 'failed' | 'cancelled'
): Promise<Result<number>> {
  return tryCatchAsync(
    async () => {
      const resolvedAt = Date.now();
      const result = this.resolveDependenciesBatchStmt.run(resolution, resolvedAt, dependsOnTaskId);
      return result.changes; // ← Uses better-sqlite3 RunResult.changes property
    },
    (error) => new DelegateError(
      ErrorCode.SYSTEM_ERROR,
      `Failed to batch resolve dependencies: ${error}`,
      { dependsOnTaskId, resolution }
    )
  );
}
```

**better-sqlite3 API Compliance**:
- ✅ `Statement.run()` returns `RunResult` object
- ✅ `RunResult.changes` property is standard API (number of rows affected)
- ✅ Error handling via tryCatchAsync wrapper
- ✅ No dynamic SQL construction

**Dependencies Used**:
- `better-sqlite3@^12.4.1` - Already in package.json, no new version required

---

### 3. Handler Integration (dependency-handler.ts)

**Modified Section** (Lines 197-254):

**Before**:
```typescript
// Get dependents
const dependentsResult = await this.dependencyRepo.getDependents(completedTaskId);

// Resolve each dependency in loop
for (const dep of dependents) {
  const resolveResult = await this.dependencyRepo.resolveDependency(
    dep.taskId,
    dep.dependsOnTaskId,
    resolution
  );
  // ... error handling and event emission
}
```

**After**:
```typescript
// Get dependents
const dependentsResult = await this.dependencyRepo.getDependents(completedTaskId);

// PERFORMANCE: Batch resolve ALL dependencies in single UPDATE query
const batchResolveResult = await this.dependencyRepo.resolveDependenciesBatch(
  completedTaskId as any,
  resolution
);

// Then iterate for event emission and unblock checks
for (const dep of dependents) {
  // Emit events and check blocking state
}
```

**Dependency Impact**: ✅ None - Uses existing repository API pattern

**Performance Improvement**:
- Reduces N+1 query problem to single UPDATE
- Comments claim 7-10× faster (should be verified via benchmarks)
- Still requires iteration for event emission (unavoidable)

---

## Security Analysis

### SQL Injection Risk: ✅ NONE

All new SQL uses prepared statements with parameterized queries:
```typescript
// Secure: Parameters passed separately
this.resolveDependenciesBatchStmt.run(resolution, resolvedAt, dependsOnTaskId);
```

No string concatenation or dynamic SQL construction found.

### Resource Exhaustion: ✅ PROTECTED

Existing safeguards remain in place:
```typescript
// From dependency-repository.ts line 16-18
private static readonly MAX_DEPENDENCIES_PER_TASK = 100;
private static readonly MAX_DEPENDENCY_CHAIN_DEPTH = 100;
```

Batch operation respects these limits (operates on existing dependencies only).

### Error Handling: ✅ ROBUST

All database operations wrapped in Result types:
```typescript
return tryCatchAsync(
  async () => { /* operation */ },
  (error) => new DelegateError(ErrorCode.SYSTEM_ERROR, ...)
);
```

No unhandled exceptions or silent failures.

### Input Validation: ✅ PRESENT

TypeScript type system enforces:
```typescript
resolution: 'completed' | 'failed' | 'cancelled'  // Only 3 valid values
dependsOnTaskId: TaskId                           // Branded type
```

## Test Coverage Analysis

### New Tests Added (dependency-repository.test.ts)

**Lines 722-899**: Comprehensive batch resolution tests

1. ✅ **Batch resolve all pending dependencies** (L725-763)
2. ✅ **Only resolve pending, skip already resolved** (L765-808)
3. ✅ **Return 0 when no pending dependencies** (L810-824)
4. ✅ **Handle 'failed' resolution** (L826-850)
5. ✅ **Handle 'cancelled' resolution** (L852-873)
6. ✅ **Large dataset performance test** (L875-899)
   - Tests 50 dependencies
   - Verifies completion in <100ms
   - Validates atomic operation

**Coverage**: Excellent - Covers happy path, edge cases, error states, and performance.

### Test Updates (dependency-handler.test.ts)

**Lines 144-147, 195-198**: Updated error message assertions

**Before**:
```typescript
expect(errorLogs.some(log => log.message.includes('Cycle detected'))).toBe(true);
```

**After**:
```typescript
expect(errorLogs.some(log =>
  log.message.includes('would create cycle') ||
  (log.context?.error?.message && log.context.error.message.includes('would create cycle'))
)).toBe(true);
```

**Analysis**: More flexible assertion to handle error messages in different log contexts. Not a dependency issue.
