Sylvain Duchesne 5cdc6ce77f feat(client): inbox.readSynced — lecture inbox gated sur la barrière first-State
ensureRepoOpen(target) (attend le 1er State, barrière de sync déterministe) puis
read(target) — même pattern que discovery.readIndex. Permet au propriétaire d'un
événement de voir un dépôt DÉJÀ synchronisé au lieu de lire trop tôt un inbox vide.
Consommé par Festipod (materializeAttendance). Pas de polling.

@ng-eventually/client

Two entry points — the data-plane is SDK-identical, the polyfill bootstrap is separate:

Import Surface
@ng-eventually/client The same signature as the SDK — ng, useShape, inbox (+ types). A drop-in for @ng-org/web / @ng-org/orm; as NextGraph matures it resolves to the real SDK (build alias removed) with no code change.
@ng-eventually/client/polyfill The only non-SDK surface — configure, setCurrentUser, and capability helpers (getCaps, grantRead, canRead/canWrite). It falls away as NextGraph matures.
// bootstrap (the only non-SDK call) — inject the real SDK
import { configure } from "@ng-eventually/client/polyfill";
configure({ ng: realNg, useShape: realUseShape, sharedWallet, currentUser });

// from here on, a pure SDK surface:
import { ng, useShape, inbox } from "@ng-eventually/client";
await ng.doc_create(/* … */);
const set = useShape(MyShape, scope);   // filtered to what the identity may read
await inbox.post(targetInbox, ref);     // deposit (anticipated SDK API)

Principle — the polyfill compensates, it never extends

The polyfill's ONLY reason to exist is to bridge a NextGraph implementation gap or a bug. Every non-SDK surface must map to a capability NextGraph will provide natively, and must fall away at that point. The polyfill MUST NOT add functionality of its own — no bespoke features, no observability/tooling, no convenience API that isn't strictly "NextGraph will do this natively later." The test for any proposed addition: does it compensate a real, exhibited NextGraph gap or bug? If not, it does not belong here — build it in the consumer application, not in the polyfill. Corollary: a compensation whose gap is not actually exhibited on the target broker is dead weight, not defensive code — it should be removed, not kept "just in case."

What the polyfill adds on top of the real SDK (each emulated for now, native as NextGraph matures):

  • Shared-wallet identity (one wallet for everyone; the current identity id is relayed to the SDK).
  • Capability enforcement — a read filter + write guard over emulated grants attached to documents; the app declares a document's read policy and issues directed read grants.
  • Anticipated methods (inbox post, capability ops) with their future-SDK shapes, emulated for now.

Generic: no application domain. The consumer application injects its shapes and performs the acts of granting access. The relationship concept ("who is connected to whom") is the consumer application's own — the client exposes only directed per-document read grants.
