 **Store access bracketing**: `withStore` wraps all database operations with `agentOperationBracket AODatabase`, connecting the store to the suspension cascade. `withStoreBatch` / `withStoreBatch'` run multiple operations in a single transaction with per-operation error catching.
 
 **Known bug**: `checkConfirmedSndQueueExists_` uses `#if defined(dpPostgres)` (typo - should be `dbPostgres`), so the `FOR UPDATE` clause is never included on either backend.

+### Migration framework
+
+**Source**: [Agent/Store/Migrations.hs](../../src/Simplex/Messaging/Agent/Store/Migrations.hs), [Agent/Store/Shared.hs](../../src/Simplex/Messaging/Agent/Store/Shared.hs)
+
+Migrations are Haskell modules under `Agent/Store/SQLite/Migrations/` and `Agent/Store/Postgres/Migrations/`. Each has `up` SQL and optional `down` SQL.
+
+**Key behaviors**:
+
+- `migrationsToRun` compares app migrations against the `migrations` table by name. Divergent histories (app has `[a,b]`, DB has `[a,c]`) produce `MTREDifferent` error - manual intervention required.
+- Each migration runs in its own transaction with the `migrations` insert *before* the schema change - failure rolls back both.
+- Downgrades require all intermediate migrations to have `down` SQL; missing any produces `MTRENoDown`.
+- `MigrationConfirmation` controls whether upgrades/downgrades auto-apply, prompt, or error.
+
+**Special case**: `m20220811_onion_hosts` triggers `updateServers` to expand host entries with Tor addresses - this is data migration, not just schema.

+**Source**: [SystemTime.hs](../../src/Simplex/Messaging/SystemTime.hs)
+
+`RoundedSystemTime t` uses a phantom type-level `Nat` for precision. `SystemDate` (precision 86400) provides k-anonymity for file creation times - all timestamps within a day collapse to the same value, preventing correlation attacks.

 The `connected` TVar is set to `True` after the handshake succeeds and before the threads start. Note: in the protocol client, this TVar is not reset on disconnect - disconnect detection relies on thread cancellation via `raceAny_` and the `disconnected` callback, not STM re-evaluation. (The server-side `Client` type has a separate `connected` TVar that is reset in `clientDisconnected`.)

+
+**Source**: [Transport/HTTP2/Client.hs](../../src/Simplex/Messaging/Transport/HTTP2/Client.hs), [Transport/HTTP2/Server.hs](../../src/Simplex/Messaging/Transport/HTTP2/Server.hs)
+
+HTTP/2 is used for XFTP file transfers and notifications to push providers (APNs).
+
+**Why the request queue**: `sendRequest` serializes requests through a `TBQueue` because the underlying http2 library is not thread-safe for concurrent stream creation. `sendRequestDirect` exists but is explicitly marked unsafe.
+
+**Inactivity expiration**: Server connections track `activeAt` and are closed by a background thread when idle beyond `checkInterval`. This is necessary because HTTP/2 has no application-level keepalive - abandoned connections would otherwise persist indefinitely.

+## WebSocket adapter
+
+**Source**: [Transport/WebSockets.hs](../../src/Simplex/Messaging/Transport/WebSockets.hs)
+
+WebSocket wraps TLS for browser clients, implementing the `Transport` typeclass.
+
+**Strict size matching**: Unlike raw TLS where `cGet` may accumulate multiple reads, WebSocket `cGet` expects a single `receiveData` to return exactly the requested size. Mismatch throws `TEBadBlock` immediately - WebSocket messages are atomic, so partial reads indicate a protocol error.
+
+**No compression**: `connectionCompressionOptions = NoCompression` because the payload is already encrypted. Compressing ciphertext wastes CPU and leaks information about plaintext structure.
