I did a last round of reviews on Zhijie's PR #15267 for LRX-31800, the register filter implementation. This one has been through a few cycles already and it is good to see it getting to a clean state. Getting filters right at the query layer matters more than it might seem on the surface, so the extra review passes are worth the time.
On LRX-25469, I opened a draft PR (#22607) for the reverse-orphaned-giftcard-redemptions-command and started putting it through its paces locally. What looked straightforward on paper turned into the usual kind of distributed systems adventure. Large-scale transactions caused the first problem, solved by switching to streaming. Mismatched fingerprints on fixture data triggered 409s, which needed an explicit handler. Then rate limiting entered the picture with 403s, and I wired in exponential backoff along with a resume cursor parameter to survive restarts gracefully. The numbers tell the real story here: dry runs finish in roughly five minutes against 25,000 transactions, but actual execution runs clock in at over an hour. That is not a surprise given the care the backoff logic requires, but it is the kind of thing worth knowing going in before you kick off a production run on a Friday.
