Define the TaskStore trait in miroir-core with SQLite backend for the seven always-present tables from plan §4: tasks, node_settings_version, aliases, sessions, idempotency_cache, jobs, leader_lease. Key design choices: - serde_json Value columns for tasks.node_tasks and aliases JSON fields - BLOB (32 raw bytes) for idempotency_cache.body_sha256 - CAS operations for job claims and leader lease acquisition - Idempotent migrations via schema_versions table with version gating - WAL mode + busy_timeout=5000 for concurrent write safety - Mutex<Connection> for thread-safe single-process access 15 tests covering CRUD round-trips, alias flipping with history retention, session/idempotency expiry, job claim/renew, leader lease acquire/renew/steal, migration idempotency, WAL mode, and concurrent writes without deadlock.

Miroir
Multi-node Index Replication Orchestrator, Integrated Rebalancing
Miroir is a RAID-like orchestration layer for Meilisearch. It stripes a large index across a fleet of small-RAM Meilisearch nodes with a configurable replication factor, fans out search queries across all shards, and rebalances shard assignments when nodes are added or removed — all using the Meilisearch Community Edition.
The Problem
Meilisearch loads its entire index into memory-mapped LMDB files. A large index that exceeds a single server's available RAM cannot run on that server. The Enterprise Edition's native sharding is gated behind a commercial license. Miroir solves this without it.
How It Works

Miroir Orchestrator
├── Write path: hash(doc_id) → assign to shard → write to R replicas
├── Read path: scatter query to all shards → gather → merge ranked results
└── Rebalance: on node add/remove → recompute assignments → migrate minimum shards
Meilisearch Nodes (N instances, each holding a subset of shards)
node-0 node-1 node-2 ... node-N
Replication Factor
Analogous to software RAID — configurable per deployment:
| RF | Redundancy | Node failures tolerated | Capacity |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | None (stripe only) | 0 | 100% of fleet |
| 2 | One replica | 1 per shard group | 50% of fleet |
| 3 | Two replicas | 2 per shard group | 33% of fleet |
Key Components
- Orchestrator — proxy that handles shard routing, scatter-gather, result merging, and topology management
- Shard router — consistent hash function (Rendezvous/HRW) mapping document IDs to node assignments; minimal reshuffling on topology change
- Rebalancer — on node add/remove, recomputes assignments and migrates only the shards that changed owners; surviving replicas serve reads during rebuild
- Result merger — normalizes and merges ranked result sets from multiple shards into a single coherent response
Status
Design phase. See docs/ for architecture detail.
