Asked of the row the feed actually returns.
site_id had a reference all along and the feed was not sending it. A
client could read the shop's NAME off an arrival and still had no way to
ask for that shop except by uuid - the exact gap the reference scheme
exists to close. site_slug now travels with it.
visit_id stays a uuid and needs no reference: no route takes it, it is a
key a client de-duplicates on because delivery is at-least-once, and
nobody says a visit id out loud.
The uuid in a face URL must STAY random. visit_faces.id is
gen_random_uuid() and a derived or sequential one would let somebody
walk a shop's customers by date - the same reason bucket keys are random
rather than derived from the event id. A readable identifier is right
for a customer and wrong for the thing that points at their photograph.
And seq is now json:"-". visits.seq is a plain bigserial, so it counts
every visit on the PLATFORM, and shipping it put the total footfall of
every customer we have on every row of every tenant's feed - the same
German-tank estimate that decided visitors.number had to be per client.
It was a convenience for "have I fallen behind", nothing ever read it,
and the cursor answers that without disclosing a number. The SSE event
id was never the raw value; it has always been the opaque cursor.
The one test that broke was reading seq back off the wire to assert the
cursor pointed at the last row of a burst. It asserts against the seeded
position now: the property is unchanged, and the test can no longer see
what a client cannot.
