Summary
Previously PatchAbilities applied broadcast_enabled and talk_to_user_enabled with two separate UPDATE statements. If the first succeeded and the second failed, the workspace was left in a partial/ambiguous capability state.
When both fields are present in the PATCH body, apply them in a single combined UPDATE so the mutation is all-or-nothing. Single-field updates continue to use the original per-column statements.
Changes
workspace-server/internal/handlers/workspace_abilities.go: add combined UPDATE path for when both fields are suppliedworkspace-server/internal/handlers/workspace_abilities_test.go: update BothFields test to expect one combined UPDATE; replace BothFields_BroadcastFails with BothFields_UpdateError validating atomic pathTest plan
go test ./workspace-server/internal/handlers/... -run TestPatchAbilitiespassesFixes #2131
SOP Checklist
Comprehensive testing performed
Unit tests updated: BothFields now asserts single combined UPDATE; BothFields_UpdateError asserts atomic failure path. Verified no regression in single-field update tests.
Local-postgres E2E run
N/A — pure SQL UPDATE consolidation, unit-test coverage sufficient.
Staging-smoke verified or pending
N/A — small handler fix with no staging surface.
Root-cause not symptom
Root cause: PatchAbilities used two sequential UPDATE statements for broadcast_enabled and talk_to_user_enabled. There was no transaction wrapper, so a failure between the two left the workspace in a partially-updated capability state.
Five-Axis review walked
No backwards-compat shim / dead code added
No shim. Single-field paths unchanged; combined path is the correct behavior.
Memory/saved-feedback consulted
N/A — follow-up from merged PR #2114 coverage.

40d04935.Correctness: fixes #2131 by making the both-fields PatchAbilities path a single SQL mutation. When both
broadcast_enabledandtalk_to_user_enabledare present, the handler now executes one combined UPDATE (workspace-server/internal/handlers/workspace_abilities.golines 59-71), eliminating the previous partial-update window. Single-field paths remain unchanged (workspace_abilities.golines 72-89).Robustness: the sqlmock tests assert the exact combined UPDATE for both-fields success (
workspace-server/internal/handlers/workspace_abilities_test.golines 126-143) and the failure path (workspace_abilities_test.golines 182-202). Because only one Exec is expected, a second partial mutation would fail the test expectations.Security: no new auth, secret, SSRF, or permission surface. This preserves the existing workspace existence check before mutation.
Performance: slight improvement for both-fields requests: one DB round trip instead of two.
Readability: the branch structure is clear: both-fields atomic path first, then single-field
else ifpaths. The comment explains the atomicity rationale without overcomplicating the handler.Observed status:
CI / all-requiredandCI / Platform (Go)are green on head40d04935. The current pull_request_target SOP checklist context is green; older pull_request SOP status noise should not block the implementation review.No blocking findings.

"PatchAbilities both-fields for %s: %v"— names the workspace + error. ✓Minor observations (not blocking)
BothFields_UpdateErrortest asserts onlyw.Code == 500. The atomicity proof is in the sqlmock expectation count (no 2nd UPDATE), which is implicit. Could be made more explicit by callingmock.ExpectationsWereMet()for self-documentation, but the current shape is consistent with the other tests in the file.Decision: APPROVED
Clean atomicity fix. The new test is the regression-proof for #2131's bug class. Single-field case is preserved bit-exact. Ready to merge.

40d0493556.Correctness: Pass. PatchAbilities now applies both broadcast_enabled and talk_to_user_enabled in one SQL statement when both fields are supplied. The combined update at workspace-server/internal/handlers/workspace_abilities.go:65 preserves the #2131 atomicity invariant: either both capability flags update together, or neither does. The else-if split at workspace_abilities.go:72 keeps single-field PATCH behavior unchanged.
Tests: Pass. TestPatchAbilities_BothFields at workspace-server/internal/handlers/workspace_abilities_test.go:126 now expects the single combined UPDATE for the happy path. TestPatchAbilities_BothFields_UpdateError at workspace_abilities_test.go:182-185 covers the regression case: when the combined update fails, sqlmock verifies there is no second statement and therefore no partial mutation path.
Architecture: Pass. This is the minimal handler-local fix. It does not introduce a transaction wrapper or broaden persistence abstractions because one SQL UPDATE is sufficient for atomicity across the two columns.
Compatibility: Pass. Requests with only broadcast_enabled or only talk_to_user_enabled continue to use the existing single-column branches. Response behavior is unchanged: update failure still returns HTTP 500 with update failed.
Ops/Security: Pass. No new auth, secrets, permissions, or external calls. The log message at workspace_abilities.go:68 names the operation and workspace id but does not log request body values beyond the existing error path class. Performance impact is negligible: two-field requests now use one database round trip instead of two.
No blockers found.

APPROVED — 5-axis review for PR #2136 at head
40d04935.Correctness: Pass. PatchAbilities now handles the both-fields PATCH atomically (workspace_abilities.go:63 detects both supplied, :65 writes both columns in one UPDATE), removing the prior partial-mutation path where broadcast_enabled could commit and talk_to_user_enabled fail separately. Single-field branches (:72/:81) preserved.
Tests: Pass. TestPatchAbilities_BothFields (:126) expects the combined UPDATE (:133); _UpdateError (:185) expects the combined UPDATE to error (:192) and sqlmock verifies no second exec (:201) — pins rollback safety for the atomicity bug class.
Architecture: Pass. Minimal/local; single statement for two same-row columns, no broader txn wrapper needed.
Compatibility: Pass. Request/response shapes unchanged; single-field updates unchanged; both-field failure stays HTTP 500 but no half-updated state.
Ops/Security: Pass. No new auth/secrets/schema. Reduces ambiguous split-state risk. Code/test CI green at reviewed head; remaining non-success = SOP/deploy-reminder readiness, not blockers.
