perf: only resolve trust downgrade status for resolved version

[serhalp]

🔗 Linked issue

🧭 Context

When rendering the package page, the server was resolving and sending the full list of every version (trust info and publish date for each), just so that the browser could render whether the viewed version has a trust downgrade.

For packages with many versions, this list was the predominant part of the payload size. For example, next has 14k+ versions and that list alone was 601 kB of a 700 kB payload.

Of course, it's also lookup time, parse time, transfer time, and our hosting costs for all these plus ISR cache reads and writes. It adds up.

📚 Description

Just resolve and return this info for the resolved version.

Payload size (_payload.json):

pkg	main (versions)	branch	Δ
nitropack	54.6 KB (0)	54.6 KB	~0
tinyglobby	12.9 KB (21)	9.7 KB	−3.2 KB (−25%)
vite	140.6 KB (760)	13.5 KB	−127 KB (−90%)
next	704.5 KB (3986)	19.3 KB	−685 KB (−97%)

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Security downgrade information is now calculated for the requested package version, rather than inferred from the version currently displayed.
  • Where applicable, the information identifies the affected version and trust level, and may include its publish date and a recommended trusted version.
  • Packages with no detected downgrade, including those where all versions have no trust status, are reported without downgrade details.

📝 Summary

📝 Summary

Walkthrough

Package transformation now calculates a publish-security downgrade result for the requested version. The package page reads this result directly instead of deriving it from displayed-version metadata.

Changes

Publish security downgrade

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Downgrade result contract and detection shared/types/npm-registry.ts, app/utils/publish-security.ts, test/unit/app/utils/publish-security.spec.ts	SlimPackument now defines an optional, nullable publishSecurityDowngrade result. The detector uses the shared result type and is named detectSecurityDowngradeForVersion. Unit tests use the renamed function.
Transform and consume downgrade result app/composables/npm/usePackage.ts, app/pages/package/[[org]]/[name].vue, test/nuxt/composables/use-package-transform.spec.ts	The package transform calculates the result for a requested version and returns it. The package page reads it directly. Tests check downgrade results for different requested versions and trust histories.

Priority: ➖ Normal

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to ed0c2

The change greatly reduces the package page payload. A small remaining server-side cost for packages with very many versions could be trimmed, but it does not block merging.

It was "only" when a package has mixed trust, but in practice nearly every popular package will meet this condition.

41-50: 🚀 Performance & Scalability | 🔵 Trivial | 💤 Low value

Avoid building security entries for every version when the downgrade cannot be non-null.

getTrustStatus runs for all versions (over 14,000 for next) on every transform. This work runs even when the requested version does not exist in pkg.versions. The detector then returns null. The result is correct. The server-side cost is the remaining part of the lookup and parsing cost named in the PR objectives.

Add a guard so the work runs only when the requested version exists:

Proposed change

-  const securityVersionEntries = Object.entries(pkg.versions).map(([version, metadata]) => ({
-    version,
-    time: pkg.time[version],
-    trustStatus: getTrustStatus(metadata),
-    deprecated: metadata.deprecated,
-  }))
-  const publishSecurityDowngrade = requestedVersion
-    ? detectSecurityDowngradeForVersion(securityVersionEntries, requestedVersion)
-    : null
+  const publishSecurityDowngrade =
+    requestedVersion && pkg.versions[requestedVersion]
+      ? detectSecurityDowngradeForVersion(
+          Object.entries(pkg.versions).map(([version, metadata]) => ({
+            version,
+            time: pkg.time[version],
+            trustStatus: getTrustStatus(metadata),
+            deprecated: metadata.deprecated,
+          })),
+          requestedVersion,
+        )
+      : null
