Let users amplify an approved commit with a one-click recommit that adds no text. Recommits appear on the recommitter’s profile and show a distinct “Recommitted” state and label.
Show the recommit on the author’s profile and retain its state after reload.
Distinguish recommits from quotes in commit cards and thread rows.
Prevent recommitting your own, unavailable, or already recommitted commits.
Align local PHP coverage settings with CI and stabilize vector-search tests.
Validation
composer test — passed: 5,817 PHP tests, 100% PHP line coverage, 100% type coverage, 1,065 frontend tests, and 292 Node tests.

Summary by CodeRabbit
New Features
Added the ability to recommit another user’s approved post without commentary. Recommits follow standard review and posting limits, appear in activity logs, and are listed among the original post’s replies.
Added recommit controls and labels to distinguish recommits from quoted posts.
Documentation
Updated the quoting guidance to describe Recommit and clarify its availability.
The change adds a recommit action for approved commits. Recommits are empty-body commits that quote the original, follow existing moderation and rate limits, and appear in commit cards and reply threads.

Summary
Authorize and create recommits app/Http/Requests/CreateCommitRecommitRequest.php, routes/web.php, app/Actions/CreateCommitRecommit.php, app/Http/Controllers/CommitRecommitController.php, tests/Feature/Controllers/CommitRecommitControllerTest.php
The authenticated route applies commit rules and throttling. The request checks visibility, approval, and ownership. The action locks the source commit and rejects duplicate recommits before creating an empty-body commit that quotes it. Tests cover rule acceptance, moderation, access restrictions, deletion, and restoration.
Load and display recommit state app/Models/Commit.php, app/Queries/CommitBuilder.php, resources/js/types/commit.ts, resources/js/components/commit-recommit-button.tsx, resources/js/components/commit-card.tsx, resources/js/components/commit-thread.tsx, KNOWLEDGE_BASE.md
Commit card data includes whether the viewer has recommitted. The interface adds recommit controls and labels recommits in cards and replies. The knowledge base describes recommit behavior and updates its source references and livestream history.

The unit-test command enables PHP assertions for both invocations. The commit search test setup disables PostgreSQL index scans locally.

Merge Risk: Low · up to b8bb5
Restoring a deleted recommit after posting its replacement can create two active recommits. Search tests also no longer exercise the indexed path. These bounded risks warrant fixes or owner acceptance before merging.
Security architecture risk: Low · up to b8bb5
Recommits retain existing sign-in, posting limits, ownership checks, and moderation controls. The main design concern is that deleting, replacing, then restoring a recommit can leave duplicate active shares. This does not establish an authorization or moderation bypass.
Retained concerns
Low · architecture · inferred: The one-active-recommit invariant is enforced during creation but not restoration. An owner can create a recommit, delete it, create a replacement, and restore the original within the undo window, leaving two active recommits for the same user and source. The restoration implementation predates this PR, but the new recommit contract introduces this lifecycle mismatch. Existing ownership, moderation, and posting limits remain applicable.
Security review details
Security Blast Radius
inferred — The demonstrated lifecycle issue is scoped to a signed-in user's own shares of an eligible source. Restoring duplicate shares can produce repeated profile or feed entries, but it does not establish access to another user's identity, hidden source content, or additional service privileges.
Security Findings and Attack Paths
inferred — The supported sequence is create, delete, create a replacement, then restore the original within 30 seconds. This bypasses the new active-recommit uniqueness contract, not the shared creation budget or moderation decision. Both creations still traverse the recommit endpoint's posting controls, and restoration preserves the original status.
Trust Boundaries and Controls
observed — The recommit route sits inside the authenticated route group and uses the same timeout, rules-acceptance, and shared per-user posting throttle as normal commit creation. Source visibility is checked at the request boundary; approval and ownership are rechecked after the source is locked and reloaded.
Resilience and Maintainability Implications
observed — Existing deletion schedules content erasure after the undo window. The erasure action reloads and locks the row, then skips live or still-restorable commits, protecting a successfully restored recommit from delayed deletion work. These implementations are unchanged by the PR.
Hardening Proposals
proposed — Apply a shared recommit identity and source-scoped serialization rule to both creation and restoration, with an explicit outcome when undo encounters an active replacement.

Add a deterministic PostgreSQL concurrency test for recommit creation.
The source row is locked before the duplicate check and insert. The current tests do not exercise a second transaction waiting for that lock, so they can miss a regression that moves the duplicate check outside the locked transaction. Use separate PostgreSQL connections to overlap two recommit requests, then assert that one request succeeds, the other is rejected, and only one recommit exists. Make the shared fixture visible to both connections because RefreshDatabase wraps feature tests in a transaction.
