Full details: Linked Issues checkExplanation The PR addresses the linked issue by adding both health constraints, migration coverage, normalization, and schema tests. However, baseline reconciliation checks constraint names without scoping the lookup to the intended table and schema, so an unrelated same-named constraint can prevent creation of a required constraint.

Thanks for picking this up so quickly. The constraint names, the migration and the four tests are the right shape. Two changes before this can go in, one of them because the migration runs against the production database.
-
Normalise existing rows before adding the constraint.
ALTER TABLE ... ADD CONSTRAINTfails if any row already holds a value outside the set, and this database has rows that predate the validator (the Plane import wrote free text). Put anUPDATE project SET health = 'no_update' WHERE health NOT IN (...)and the same forproject_updateat the top of0017_typical_freak.sql, before the twoALTER TABLEstatements. Then the migration cannot fail on real data, and a test that inserts a bad value before applying the migration would prove it. -
Derive the set from
PROJECT_HEALTHS.packages/dbalready depends on@orbit/shared(content.tsimports from it), so the schema can build thesqllist fromPROJECT_HEALTHSinpackages/shared/src/constants/project.tsinstead of repeating the four strings. The tests should read from the same constant. Otherwise the validator and the constraint can drift apart, which is the thing this PR exists to prevent. Regenerate the migration after the change so the snapshot matches.
Two things that are not on you: the migration has to be applied to the hosted database with bun run db:release before this merges, which I will do, and #383 also carries a 0017, which is my draft to rebase, not your problem.
I have approved the CI runs on this head. Push the two changes and ping me.

Both changes are in and they are right: the UPDATE runs before the constraints in the migration and in the release reconciliation path, the set is derived from PROJECT_HEALTHS in the schema and the tests, and the new migration test applies the real migration to a scratch database with a bad row and proves it is normalised. CI is green on unit tests. I ran the migration test locally and it passes.
One thing I hit locally that is not your problem, recorded as #439: drizzle-kit push does not add a check constraint to a table that already exists, so on a machine whose test databases predate this branch the two schema invariant tests fail while they pass on CI, which creates fresh databases. Nothing to change here.
Merging is held only until the migration has been applied to the hosted database with db:release, which I will do; then this goes in. Thanks for the fast turnaround.

Constraint names collide across relations
If a legacy database has project_health_check or project_update_health_check on another relation or in another schema, this name-only catalog lookup skips the required ALTER TABLE. The release then records migration 0017 while the affected project table still accepts unsupported health values.

**Constraint names collide across relations**
If a legacy database has `project_health_check` or `project_update_health_check` on another relation or in another schema, this name-only catalog lookup skips the required `ALTER TABLE`. The release then records migration 0017 while the affected project table still accepts unsupported health values.

Scope each constraint lookup to its target table.
pg_constraint.conname is not unique across tables. If another table already has either name, this block skips the matching ALTER TABLE. The target table then remains without its health constraint after the ledger records migration 1788724695585.
Filter each lookup by conrelid, such as 'project'::regclass and 'project_update'::regclass.
Proposed fix
- select 1 from pg_constraint where conname = 'project_health_check'
+ select 1
+ from pg_constraint
+ where conname = 'project_health_check'
+ and conrelid = 'project'::regclass

- select 1 from pg_constraint where conname = 'project_update_health_check'

Assert invalid project_update.health rejection during baselining.
This test only inserts an invalid value into public.project. If the project_update_health_check branch in packages/db/src/migration-release.ts Lines 138-142 is removed or wrong, this test still passes. Add a separate invalid public.project_update insert and assert that it fails.

What this changes
Adds check constraints on the
healthcolumns of theprojectandproject_updatetables to restrict values toon_track,at_risk,off_track, andno_update. Generates the Drizzle migration (0017_typical_freak.sql) and adds schema tests verifying values outside the allowed set are refused.Why
PROJECT_HEALTHSinpackages/shared/src/constants/project.tsfixes health toon_track,at_risk,off_track, andno_update, and validators enforce this at the API layer. The columns themselves were unconstrained text, allowing direct writes or future importers to store arbitrary values.Closes #412

The PR adds database-level project health constraints, normalizes legacy values, and extends migration-release baselining to reconcile the constraints.
projectandproject_updatein the Drizzle schema and migration.Confidence Score: 4/5
The PR is not yet safe to merge because baseline releases can still record migration 0017 without installing a required health constraint when an unrelated same-named constraint exists.
The baseline repair correctly handles ordinary legacy databases, but its name-only
pg_constraintquery can suppress constraint creation on the intended table and leave unsupported health values insertable.Files Needing Attention: packages/db/src/migration-release.ts
