fix(context): reject v1 view upgrades that map two views to the same target

[AmirF194]

Fixes #2695

Root cause

_plan_v1_to_v2's cube loop already refuses to upgrade when two legacy cube files resolve to the same target directory (seen_cube_targets, raises UpgradeError before any write). The views loop right above it has no equivalent check: it resolves each view's target purely from view.get("name"), so two views.yml entries sharing the same name map to the same views/<name>/ directory. _apply_v1_to_v2 then writes both views into that directory (the second write overwrites the first) and deletes views.yml, the only other copy, right after.

Fix

Mirror the existing cube guard for views: track resolved metadata.yml targets in a seen_view_targets set while planning, and raise UpgradeError on a repeat before _apply_v1_to_v2 performs any filesystem write (it calls _plan_v1_to_v2 first for exactly this reason).

Verification

• New test test_plan_upgrade_v1_to_v2_rejects_duplicate_view_names (tests/unit/test_context.py), mirroring the existing ..._rejects_duplicate_cube_targets test: fails on main (DID NOT RAISE UpgradeError) and passes on this branch, confirmed both ways in the same Docker image.
• Also reproduced end to end outside the test suite: built a v1 project with two views.yml entries named summary, ran plan_upgrade/apply_upgrade on main and got a silently clobbered views/summary/metadata.yml with views.yml deleted; same input on this branch raises UpgradeError before any file is touched.
• Full tests/unit/ suite (excluding test_memory.py/test_mcp_server.py, matching the CI job's own scope): 1191 passed, 2 skipped.
• ruff format --check and ruff check clean on both changed files.
• Not run: the connector/UI/memory/mcp CI jobs, since this change touches neither their code paths nor their extras.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes

  • Prevented v1-to-v2 upgrade plans from proceeding when multiple legacy views or models target the same destination.
  • Added detection for name conflicts that differ only by letter case.
  • Ensured failed upgrade plans leave the schema version and source files unchanged, without creating partial destination files or directories.

• Tests

  • Added regression coverage for duplicate view and model mappings, including case-insensitive conflicts and prevention of partial migrations.

Walkthrough

The v1-to-v2 upgrade planner now rejects duplicate model and view migration targets, including names that differ only by case. Regression tests verify that failed planning preserves schema state, source files, and destination directories.

Changes

Upgrade collision handling

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Detect duplicate model and view targets core/wren/src/wren/context.py	The planner case-folds model targets and view paths. It raises UpgradeError when multiple legacy entities map to the same destination.
Verify failed upgrades preserve project state core/wren/tests/unit/test_context.py	Regression tests cover duplicate model and view names. The tests verify unchanged schema and source files and the absence of generated destination directories.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 1a26a

The migration now rejects duplicate view destinations before writing, but cube targets that differ only by case can still collide on case-insensitive filesystems, potentially overwriting migrated metadata and deleting both legacy sources. The PR is not merge-ready until this bounded data-loss risk is addressed.

A rabbit guards each target path,

Case-folded names avoid mishap.
Duplicate models stop the flight,
Views stay safe before they write.
The old files rest through upgrade night.

Checking in on this one, no rush. Pushed a small test strengthening per CodeRabbit's suggestion (assert views.yml content is unchanged after the rejected upgrade, not just that the file exists).

Review

The fix is correct, minimal, and lands in the right place — _plan_v1_to_v2, before any write, mirroring the existing cube guard, with _apply_v1_to_v2 inheriting it via its own _plan_v1_to_v2 call. The test's source-preservation assertions (schema version, views.yml byte-identical, no views/ directory, all other v1 sources untouched) are exactly the right shape for this bug class.

Verified independently against current main (bfc2b9ab, not the branch's 13-commits-older base): the new test fails there with DID NOT RAISE UpgradeError and passes on this branch; tests/unit/test_context.py is 182 passed on the branch. The PR description's verification claims check out.

Two gaps of the same class remain — both pre-existing, neither introduced here.

🟡 1. Case-only collisions still slip through

seen_view_targets keys on the literal views/<name>/metadata.yml string, so two names differing only in case are distinct keys — but on a case-insensitive filesystem (macOS APFS default, Windows) they are the same directory:

views:
  - name: Revenue
    statement: SELECT 1
  - name: revenue
    statement: SELECT 2

-> MIGRATED (no error). views.yml gone: True
   views/Revenue: name: revenue | statement: SELECT 2

One directory, named for the first view, containing the second — and views.yml deleted. This is the PR's own stated failure mode ("two views map to the same target"), just resolved by the filesystem rather than by string equality. It will not reproduce on Linux CI, which is why the existing suite cannot catch it.

Keying the set on target.casefold() closes it in one line. That does reject a project that would migrate fine on a case-sensitive filesystem, but for a one-way migration that deletes the source, refusing an ambiguous project seems clearly preferable to data loss that depends on which machine runs the upgrade. The cube guard has the same gap, for what it's worth.

🟡 2. Models have the identical gap, ~15 lines above

The model loop in the same function resolves models/<name>/ from model.get("name") with no dedupe, so two models/*.yml files sharing a name: collapse the same way — and here both source files are deleted:

models/a.yml (name: dup, column x)  +  models/b.yml (name: dup, column y)
-> MIGRATED. models/dup/metadata.yml has only column y
   leftover model files: []          # both sources gone

The same case-collision variant applies. Understandable if you would rather keep this PR scoped to views and file models separately, but it is the same three lines in the same loop, and models are the more likely collection to hit it.

🟢 3. Minor — guard placement asymmetry

Cubes are guarded in both _plan_v1_to_v2 and _apply_v1_to_v2; views now only in plan. That is sufficient today because _apply_v1_to_v2 calls _plan_v1_to_v2 first, so this is not a bug — but the file already has a ..._rechecks_..._before_writing test convention for exactly this invariant, and a duplicate-views case there would pin it against future refactors.

📝 Note

This is complementary to #2690, which is also open and also touches the views section of _plan_v1_to_v2 (a raw-source preflight for malformed and nameless views). Neither subsumes the other — that one rejects shape problems, this one rejects target collisions — and they touch different hunks, so no textual conflict is expected. Worth landing both.

[AmirF194]

Thanks for the careful read, this is exactly the kind of check I should have run myself before opening the PR.

Pushed a follow-up commit that folds both the view and model target guards through casefold(), so Revenue/revenue (or any case-only variant) now collides the same way an exact duplicate does, and it raises before any write. I also added the missing duplicate-target guard to the model loop itself, since the collision there deletes the source file the same way and it turned out to be the same three lines in the same style. New tests cover a case-insensitive duplicate view name and both an exact and case-insensitive duplicate model name, each asserting the source files come back byte-identical and no partial directory gets created, same shape as the existing duplicate-view test. Full tests/unit/ run at 1194 passed, 2 skipped; ruff format and check are clean on both touched files (the 11 pre-existing check findings elsewhere in test_context.py are unchanged from main).

Left the cube guard's case sensitivity alone since it predates this PR and is a separate function, happy to open a follow-up for it if that's useful. Same for item 3, the guard is only in _plan_v1_to_v2 for now, which is sufficient since _apply_v1_to_v2 calls plan first, so I skipped adding the extra pinning test to keep the diff focused, but can add it if you'd rather have it here.

Good call on #2690 being complementary, nothing here should conflict with it.

1774-1778: 🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Case-fold cube targets before duplicate detection.

Line 1774 compares raw target paths. On a case-insensitive filesystem, cube names Revenue and revenue resolve to the same destination, but this guard accepts both. The migration can then overwrite metadata and delete both v1 source files. Store and compare target.casefold() as done for models and views. Add a case-insensitive cube regression test.

Proposed fix

-        if target in seen_cube_targets:
+        normalized_target = target.casefold()
+        if normalized_target in seen_cube_targets:
             raise UpgradeError(
                 f"Cannot upgrade: multiple legacy cube files map to '{target}'"
             )
-        seen_cube_targets.add(target)
+        seen_cube_targets.add(normalized_target)
