1//! # SynchronizationProvider (Environment)
2//!
3//! RESPONSIBILITIES:
4//! - Implements
5//!   [`SynchronizationProvider`](CommonLibrary::Synchronization::SynchronizationProvider)
6//!   for [`MountainEnvironment`]
7//! - Provides two-way synchronization of user data across devices
8//! - Handles push (local → remote) and pull (remote → local) operations
9//! - Manages sync state, conflict resolution, and offline queuing
10//! - Provides sync status notifications and progress tracking
11//!
12//! ARCHITECTURAL ROLE:
13//! - Optional provider for cloud sync functionality (currently stub)
14//! - Would integrate with external sync service (Firebase, Supabase, custom
15//!   backend)
16//! - Uses authentication from `AuthenticationProvider` (to be implemented)
17//! - Syncs multiple data types: settings, keybindings, workspaces, extensions,
18//!   snippets
19//! - Store sync metadata in `ApplicationState`
20//!
21//! SYNC ARCHITECTURE:
22//! **PushUserData**:
23//! - Upload local data snapshot to remote server
24//! - Compare versions to detect conflicts
25//! - Handle conflicts via configured strategy (latest wins, manual, merge)
26//! - Queue operations when offline for later retry
27//! - Update local state after successful push
28//!
29//! **PullUserData**:
30//! - Download latest remote data snapshot
31//! - Compare with local version to detect conflicts
32//! - Apply changes or prompt for conflict resolution
33//! - Notify UI of sync completion via events
34//!
35//! CONFLICT RESOLUTION:
36//! - Strategies: Latest Wins, Local Wins, Remote Wins, Manual Resolution, Merge
37//! - Version tracking using timestamps or incremental version numbers
38//! - Conflict UI would be handled by frontend (Sky) via notifications
39//! - TODO: Implement proper three-way merge for settings files
40//!
41//! ERROR HANDLING:
42//! - Uses [`CommonError`](CommonLibrary::Error::CommonError) for all operations
43//! - Network failures should be queued for retry with exponential backoff
44//! - Authentication errors should trigger re-authentication flow
45//! - TODO: Implement proper error categorization and user messaging
46//!
47//! PERFORMANCE:
48//! - Sync operations should be non-blocking and cancellable
49//! - Large data payloads should be compressed and chunked
50//! - Incremental sync to minimize data transfer (sync only deltas)
51//! - Throttling to respect rate limits and avoid network saturation
52//!
53//! SECURITY:
54//! - All sync traffic must be encrypted (HTTPS/TLS)
55//! - Sensitive data (credentials, tokens) must be encrypted at rest on server
56//! - Device identification and authentication required
57//! - TODO: Implement end-to-end encryption for maximum security
58//!
59//! VS CODE REFERENCE:
60//! - `vs/workbench/services/settings/common/settingsSync.ts` - settings sync
61//!   service
62//! - `vs/workbench/common/sync/syncService.ts` - sync service abstraction
63//! - `vs/workbench/services/settings/common/settingsTarget.ts` - multi-device
64//!   sync
65//! - `vs/platform/update/common/update.ts` - update pattern for comparison
66//!
67//! TODO:
68//! - Implement complete sync service integration (Firebase, Supabase, custom)
69//! - Add authentication flow for sync service (OAuth, API keys)
70//! - Implement conflict detection and resolution strategies (version vectors)
71//! - Add offline queue with persistent storage for pending operations
72//! - Implement retry logic with exponential backoff and jitter
73//! - Support sync schedule configuration (manual, immediate, interval, on-wifi)
74//! - Add sync progress tracking and cancellation support
75//! - Implement selective sync based on user preferences (data type filters)
76//! - Support data versioning for rollback and audit trail
77//! - Add sync conflict UI for user resolution (frontend component)
78//! - Implement sync encryption for sensitive data (client-side encryption)
79//! - Support sync across multiple devices (device IDs, device management)
80//! - Add sync history and audit log (for compliance and debugging)
81//! - Implement sync migration and upgrade support (schema changes)
82//! - Support sync for workspaces and configurations (full workspace state)
83//! - Add sync for extensions and their data (extension state, settings)
84//! - Implement sync throttling to avoid rate limits (adaptive throttling)
85//! - Support sync for large files with chunking and resumable uploads
86//! - Add sync statistics and analytics (sync frequency, data volume, errors)
87//! - Implement sync health checks and monitoring (service status, connectivity)
88//! - Support sync service fallback and failover (multiple backend endpoints)
89//!
90//! MODULE CONTENTS:
91//! - [`SynchronizationProvider`](CommonLibrary::Synchronization::SynchronizationProvider) implementation:
92//! - `PushUserData` - upload local data to remote
93//! (stub)
94//! - `PullUserData` - download remote data to local
95//! (stub)
96//! - Current state: Stub with logging only; production implementation pending
97//!
98//! ---
99//! *Implementation notes: This provider is currently a stub with no actual sync
100//! functionality. Future work will integrate with a cloud sync service
101//! provider.*
