Conversation
pg_index.indkey lists the INCLUDE payload after the key columns, and indnkeyatts is where the key columns stop. Both index rules read indkey whole, so an index that merely carries a column along counted as covering it, and a real finding was suppressed. missing-fk-index compares conkey to the leading slice of indkey, so an index ON t (a) INCLUDE (b) satisfied FOREIGN KEY (a, b), which it cannot: the payload column is stored but not part of the key, so it cannot serve the constraint check. missing-rls-index matches with attnum = ANY(col_attnums), so an index ON t (other_col) INCLUDE (policy_col) marked policy_col as indexed even though the policy cannot filter on it. Both CTEs now slice indkey to its first indnkeyatts entries and keep their existing matching logic unchanged. Adds an integration test against a real migrated database: both rules still flag the payload-only shapes, neither flags the same shape covered by a genuine key index, and both clear once a real key index is added. Verified by mutation: restoring the whole-indkey read fails the two payload tests.
WalkthroughThe advisor now distinguishes PostgreSQL index key columns from ChangesAdvisor index coverage
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The advisor behavior change is localized, but the integration tests covering INCLUDE-column handling are excluded from Vitest discovery and therefore may not run in CI. Merge should wait until the test configuration is updated so the regression checks execute. Possibly related PRs

Review follow-up. The "clears once covered" case created indexes on the same tables the payload-only cases assert are uncovered, so the suite only passed because vitest runs `it` blocks in declaration order. Reordering them, or adding a later test that rescans those tables, would silently change what the earlier ones observe. That case now has its own tables, and asserts both that they are flagged first and cleared after, which is a stronger check than the one-directional assertion it replaces. Verified by moving the mutating case to the top of the file: the previous version fails the two payload assertions, this one passes. Also passes under --sequence.shuffle.

Vitest CLI --dir test directory config test.exclude behavior
💡 Result:
In Vitest, the --dir CLI option and the test.exclude configuration property serve distinct but complementary roles in test discovery. The --dir option defines the base directory from which Vitest begins its search for test files [1][2][3]. By default, Vitest scans from the project root (process.cwd) [3]. When you specify --dir, you restrict the file discovery process to that directory and its subdirectories, which can improve performance by limiting the initial scan area [3]. The test.exclude property accepts a list of glob patterns that Vitest uses to filter out files and directories from the final test suite, regardless of where they were discovered [4][3]. These patterns are evaluated relative to the root directory [4]. Regarding their interaction: 1. Scope: --dir sets the starting point for discovery [3]. If you specify a directory via --dir, files inside that directory that match any pattern in test.exclude will still be excluded from the test run [4][5]. 2. Additive CLI Behavior: A unique characteristic of --exclude in Vitest is that providing the --exclude flag via the CLI is additive [4][3]. Unlike most other CLI options that override configuration, any glob patterns provided via the CLI --exclude flag are appended to the patterns already defined in your vitest.config file [4][3]. If your goal is to isolate tests in specific folders, using --dir is generally recommended over complex exclusion patterns because it is more performant [6]. Note that currently, --dir does not support passing multiple directories simultaneously [7].

Both index rules readindkeywhole, so an index that merely carries a column along counted as covering it and a real finding was suppressed.A payload column is stored in the index but is not part of the key, so it cannot be searched on and cannot serve a foreign-key check.
