Follow-up to #676 for #673: internal/jsonstream, which conda's repodata filter and index and npm's RewriteStream copy through, now reads with encoding/json/jsontext instead of encoding/json's Decoder.Token.

• CopyObject takes an io.Reader and builds the decoder itself, with AllowDuplicateNames and AllowInvalidUTF8, so it accepts what encoding/json did. Repeated names are each passed to the callback, as before.
• Keys are written with the bytes they were read with. Before, they were decoded and encoded again, which changed escapes such as é.
• Member.Skip reads past a value without keeping it. RewriteStream uses it for dropped versions, time entries and earlier duplicates, and decides whether to keep a version before reading it.
• Member.Raw returns bytes that are only valid until the next member. All callers use them right away.

Benchmarks (M-series Mac, -count 3), main → this branch:

	time	allocated
conda filter, conda-forge noarch repodata.json (195 MB)	0.89 → 0.62 s	379 → 77 MB
conda timestamp index, same file	0.84 → 0.61 s	311 → 110 MB
npm RewriteStream, next packument (32 MB)	69 → 34 ms	38 → 3.5 MB

BenchmarkCondaFilterRepodata and BenchmarkCondaReadRepodataIndex read the file CONDA_REPODATA_BENCH names and skip without it. BenchmarkRewriteStream uses the generated 5,000-version packument, or NPM_PACKUMENT_BENCH.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Bug Fixes
  • Improved handling of package metadata containing repeated fields, escaped keys, and invalid UTF-8, while preserving the original JSON key bytes in output.
  • Metadata filtering now skips excluded values without changing retained results.
  • JSON processing now rejects extra data after the top-level object.

Walkthrough

The JSON stream parser now uses jsontext token and value APIs. Conda and npm callers pass readers directly to the parser. npm rewriting skips filtered values, and new benchmarks cover Conda repodata operations and npm stream rewriting.

Changes: JSON streaming

Layer / File(s)	Summary
JSON stream parsing and member API internal/jsonstream/jsonstream.go, internal/jsonstream/jsonstream_test.go	CopyObject accepts an io.Reader and uses jsontext APIs. It preserves raw key bytes, accepts duplicate names and invalid UTF-8, and rejects trailing input. Member.Skip consumes a value without writing it; tests cover these behaviors.
Conda reader integration and benchmarks internal/handler/conda.go, internal/handler/conda_repodata_bench_test.go	Conda repodata filtering and indexing pass readers directly to CopyObject. New benchmarks cover both operations.
npm stream rewriting and benchmarks internal/metadata/npm/stream.go, internal/metadata/npm/stream_bench_test.go	RewriteStream passes its reader directly to CopyObject. It skips filtered entries and replaced values. A benchmark measures rewriting a generated or supplied packument.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Possibly related issues

• Issue 673 requests jsontext-based npm packument streaming and skipping discarded values. This PR adds Member.Skip and uses it in RewriteStream; the issue’s ScanPackument and LookupVersion work is not confirmed by the supplied evidence.

Merge Risk: Minimal · up to 23316

The streaming changes appear ready to merge; no merge-blocking issue was identified.

Security architecture risk: Low · up to 23316

Existing callers continue to make filtering decisions using decoded keys, and no new filtering bypass or privilege expansion was established. Preserving malformed key bytes changes downstream output compatibility, which remains incompletely assessed.

Retained concerns
No architecture-level concerns identified.

Security review details

Security Blast Radius

• inferred — The demonstrated exposure is upstream package metadata processed through the existing npm and Conda paths and emitted to their consumers. The inspected change affects parsing and serialization rather than granting new authority; downstream client behavior for preserved malformed keys was not established.

Trust Boundaries and Controls

• observed — Filtering decisions use decoded keys rather than preserved key bytes. Conda recognizes its package containers through Member.Key, and npm uses decoded names for duplicate counting and version selection. The boundary probe found no key-normalization disagreement between npm scanning and rewriting that established a filtering bypass.

Resilience and Maintainability Implications

• observed — Consumption is marked before reading or descending into a value, read and callback errors terminate copying, and trailing top-level data is rejected. Output is streamed before final validation, so failure can leave partial output; this non-transactional behavior also existed at the PR base.

Hardening Proposals

• proposed — Make Member pointer lifetime explicitly callback-scoped and document that retaining it can reference a later member because the implementation reuses one instance. Current inspected callers do not retain these pointers, so this is contract hardening rather than an established production vulnerability.

Full details: Title check

Explanation

The title "Read jsonstream objects with jsontext" matches the main change. The PR switches internal/jsonstream from encoding/json Decoder.Token to encoding/json/jsontext, and it changes CopyObject, Member.Raw, and Member.Skip. The title names the package and the new library, so a reviewer scanning history can identify the primary change. It does not mention the related benchmark additions or the RewriteStream callers, which is expected for a title.

Full details: Docstring Coverage

Explanation

Docstring coverage is 63.64% which is insufficient. The required threshold is 80.00%. Docstring coverage is scoped to functions touched by this diff with cyclomatic complexity of at least 2. Documentation-only edits and deletions within surviving functions are included; unchanged diff context and fully deleted functions are excluded. Analyzed 11 functions across 6 files.

Resolution

Write docstrings for the functions missing them to satisfy the coverage threshold.

Fixed the invalid UTF-8 key CodeRabbit found in 23316c0: the key's Key gets U+FFFD in place of the bad bytes, as with encoding/json, and the key is still written as read (TestCopyObjectInvalidUTF8Key).
