Self-serve release of former emails without reminting identity - #2106
Merged

Conversation
Keep users.stable_user_id as the account identity and treat emails as claims. Changing email warns and retains the previous verified address so it cannot open a second account until the owner re-verifies and releases it from Account settings. Signup and OAuth collisions now explain that path without leaking the current login email. Co-authored-by: Kent C. Dodds <me+github@kentcdodds.com>
Local D1 does not apply migrations, so createPlatformAccount now needs the 0045 claims tables before allocateSignupIdentity can run. Co-authored-by: Kent C. Dodds <me+github@kentcdodds.com>

Make the email update and both claim writes atomic.
Line 227 runs after the users.email update and token deletion. A concurrent email change can claim newEmail in this gap. claimAccountEmail then throws, but this function has already committed the new login email and removed the retry token. Use one database transaction or one conditional write sequence that reserves both claims and changes the user email together.

Enforce the success limit atomically.
Line 220 checks the release count before the claim transition at lines 224-228. Concurrent verifications for different addresses can all observe a count below the limit and then release more than three addresses in the 24-hour window.
Perform the limit check and the claim-status transition in one atomic database operation. Return daily_cap when that operation cannot reserve a release slot.

Refund the rate-limit row created by this request.
checkRateLimit returns no request-specific identifier, while releaseRateLimit deletes the newest row for the shared user key. If an older request fails after a newer request succeeds, this path can delete the newer row and leave the older row. The older row can expire first, allowing another request before the successful request's window ends.
Return the inserted row ID from checkRateLimit and refund that exact record, or implement an equivalent atomic request-specific refund.

Intent
Let people who change their account email understand that the old address stays claimed, and release it themselves (after re-verifying that address) so it can open a new account — without reminting
stable_user_id.Why
Changing email does not free the previous address for a second account. Signup mints
users.stable_user_id = sha256(normalized email). After a change, identity stays andusers.emailupdates, but a new signup still collides on that unique hash. Operators saw this asadminUserStableIdConflict(sha256(former) === existing.stable_user_idwhile current email differs).The product used to dead-end with “Contact support@kody.codes.” There was no former-email history table — reservation was implicit. This PR makes that reservation an explicit claim, keeps identity stable, and adds a re-verify + release path.
Model (claims vs identity)
users.stable_user_idis minted once and never reminted or rotated.user_email_claimsrecords every verified address still reserved by that account (status = claimed). Changing email does not auto-release the old address (anti-abuse / free-tier cycling).sha256(email)equals some account'sstable_user_id, current email differs, and there is noreleasedrow, the address is still reserved. That is how existing accounts (including the support case) work before they appear in the new table.status = released. Signup may then mint a new randomstable_user_idfor the new account only. The original account keeps its id.former_email_claimedtells the person the address is linked to an existing account — sign in with the email they use now, or release it from Account → Former addresses. Copy does not leak the current email.Summary
