fix: prevent NULL status values during migration 008 (#587)

## Summary
- Fixes migration 008 failing with "column contains null values" error
- Adds COALESCE protection to handle 126 servers without status fields
- Includes test utilities to reproduce and verify fixes with production
data

## Problem

Migration 008 was failing in production because:
- 126 out of 781 servers have no `status` field in their JSON
- When extracting `rec.value->>'status'`, these became NULL values
- The `ALTER TABLE servers ALTER COLUMN status SET NOT NULL` constraint
then failed

## Solution

1. **Prevent NULLs during migration**: Use COALESCE to provide 'active'
default when status is NULL/empty
2. **Enhanced debugging**: Added RAISE NOTICE statements to log
problematic values
3. **Safety check**: Double-check that throws exception if any NULLs
remain
4. **Test utilities**: Created mirror_data tools to test migrations with
real production data

## Testing

Created and used `scripts/mirror_data/` tools to:
- Fetch all 781 servers from production API
- Load them into a test database
- Verify the migration fix works correctly

### Results:
- **Before fix**: 126 NULL status values created during migration
- **After fix**: 0 NULL status values, all servers have valid status
- Migration completes successfully with NOT NULL constraint

## Test plan
- [x] Tested locally with production data using mirror_data tools
- [x] Verified 0 NULL values after migration (vs 126 before)
- [x] Confirmed NOT NULL constraint adds successfully
- [ ] Deploy to staging and verify migration succeeds
- [ ] Monitor production deployment

Tools to fetch and load production registry data for local testing and migration debugging.
## Overview
These scripts help you:
1. Fetch all server data from the production registry API
2. Load it into a local PostgreSQL database
3. Test migrations against real production data
## Prerequisites
- Go 1.24.x
- PostgreSQL (via Docker or local installation)
- Required Go packages:
```bash
go get github.com/google/uuid github.com/lib/pq
```
## Usage
### 1. Fetch Production Data
```bash
# From the project root directory
go run scripts/mirror_data/fetch_production_data.go
```
This will:
- Fetch all servers from https://registry.modelcontextprotocol.io/v0/servers
- Handle pagination automatically
- Save data to `scripts/mirror_data/production_servers.json`
- Be respectful to the API with rate limiting
Output: `production_servers.json` containing all server records
### 2. Set Up Test Database
Start a PostgreSQL container for testing:
```bash
docker run -d --name test-postgres \
-p 5433:5432 \
-e POSTGRES_PASSWORD=testpass \
-e POSTGRES_DB=registry_test \
postgres:16
```
Or reset an existing database:
```bash
docker exec test-postgres psql -U postgres postgres -c "DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS registry_test;"
docker exec test-postgres psql -U postgres postgres -c "CREATE DATABASE registry_test;"
```
### 3. Load Production Data
```bash
# From the project root directory
go run scripts/mirror_data/load_production_data.go
```
This will:
1. Connect to PostgreSQL at `localhost:5433`
2. Apply migrations up to a configurable point (default: migration 007)
3. Load all production server data
4. Analyze the data and report statistics
5. Show sample servers with NULL status values
To test a different migration, edit `maxMigration` in the script (line 24)
### 4. Test Migrations
After loading the data, you can test migrations against real production data.
#### Testing a Single Migration
```bash
# Test migration 008
cat internal/database/migrations/008_separate_official_metadata.sql | \
docker exec -i test-postgres psql -U postgres -d registry_test
```
#### Debugging Failed Migrations
1. **Check the error output:**
```bash
# Run migration and capture all output
cat internal/database/migrations/008_separate_official_metadata.sql | \
docker exec -i test-postgres psql -U postgres -d registry_test 2>&1 | \
grep -E "(ERROR|NOTICE|WARNING)"
```
2. **Inspect data before migration:**
```bash
# Check for NULL values that might cause issues
docker exec test-postgres psql -U postgres -d registry_test -c \
"SELECT COUNT(*) FROM servers WHERE value->>'status' IS NULL;"
# Find sample problematic records
docker exec test-postgres psql -U postgres -d registry_test -c \
"SELECT value->>'name', value->>'version' FROM servers \
WHERE value->>'status' IS NULL LIMIT 5;"
```
3. **Test partial migrations:**
```bash
# Extract and run only part of a migration to isolate issues
# For example, run only up to the NOT NULL constraint:
docker exec test-postgres psql -U postgres -d registry_test <<EOF
BEGIN;
-- Paste migration SQL up to the problematic line
-- Check intermediate state
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM servers WHERE status IS NULL;
ROLLBACK; -- or COMMIT if testing further
EOF
```
#### Testing Migration Rollback
```bash
# Start a transaction to test and rollback
docker exec test-postgres psql -U postgres -d registry_test <<EOF
BEGIN;
\i /dev/stdin < internal/database/migrations/008_separate_official_metadata.sql
-- Inspect the results
\d servers
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM servers;
ROLLBACK; -- Undo all changes
EOF
```
#### Iterative Testing Workflow
1. **Reset database to clean state:**
```bash
docker exec test-postgres psql -U postgres postgres -c "DROP DATABASE IF EXISTS registry_test;"
docker exec test-postgres psql -U postgres postgres -c "CREATE DATABASE registry_test;"
go run scripts/mirror_data/load_production_data.go
```
2. **Test your migration changes:**
```bash
cat internal/database/migrations/008_separate_official_metadata.sql | \
docker exec -i test-postgres psql -U postgres -d registry_test
```
3. **Verify the results:**
```bash
# Check final table structure
docker exec test-postgres psql -U postgres -d registry_test -c "\d servers"
# Verify data integrity
docker exec test-postgres psql -U postgres -d registry_test -c \
"SELECT COUNT(*), COUNT(DISTINCT server_name) FROM servers;"
```
#### Common Migration Issues to Check
- **NULL values:** Check columns before adding NOT NULL constraints
- **Unique constraints:** Verify no duplicates exist before adding
- **Check constraints:** Validate all existing data matches the constraint
- **Data type changes:** Ensure all values can be cast to new type
- **Foreign keys:** Verify referential integrity before adding
### 5. Clean Up
```bash
docker stop test-postgres
docker rm test-postgres
```
## Configuration
The `load_production_data.go` script connects to:
- Host: `localhost`
- Port: `5433`
- Database: `registry_test`
- User: `postgres`
- Password: `testpass`
Modify line 17 in the script if you need different connection parameters.
## Example Output
When running `load_production_data.go`:
```
Running migrations 001-007...
Applying migration 1: 001_initial_schema.sql
Applying migration 2: 002_add_server_extensions.sql
...
Loading production data...
Loading 779 servers...
Data loaded successfully!
Total servers in database: 779
Analyzing status field in JSON data...
Total servers: 779
NULL status: 126
Empty status: 0
'null' string status: 0
'active' status: 652
'deprecated' status: 0
'deleted' status: 0
Other/Invalid: 1
Sample servers with NULL status:
- com.biodnd/agent-ip@0.1.2
- io.github.jkakar/cookwith-mcp@1.0.0
...
Database is ready for testing migration 008!
```
## Troubleshooting
### Port already in use
If port 5433 is already in use, either:
- Stop the existing service using that port
- Use a different port in both the Docker command and the Go script
### Connection refused
Ensure the PostgreSQL container is running and healthy:
```bash
docker ps | grep test-postgres
docker logs test-postgres
```
### Migration failures
The script stops at migration 007 intentionally. To test migration 008, run it manually after the data is loaded.
