feat(minibf): add /scripts/{script_hash}/utxos endpoint

[slowbackspace]

Closes #1193.

Summary

Adds GET /scripts/{script_hash}/utxos. The endpoint returns the live UTxOs that hold the script as a reference script (CIP-33). The response mirrors the Blockfrost implementation in blockfrost/blockfrost-backend-ryo#343.

Semantics

• An unknown script returns 404.
• A known script with no live reference UTxOs returns an empty page.
• The response uses ScriptUtxosInner from blockfrost-openapi. It has no deprecated tx_index field.
• Standard count / page / order pagination, in chain order.

Implementation

The endpoint reads a dedicated live-UTxO index dimension:

• feat(cardano): every output that carries a reference script tags the live-UTxO index under a new utxo::SCRIPT_REF dimension, keyed by the script's on-chain hash. The tag flows through extract_utxo_tags, so block apply, undo and the restore-time rebuild all cover it with no extra plumbing. redb3 backs it with a byscriptref multimap table; the fjall backend needs no changes because it keys tags by dimension hash.
• fix(minibf): the handler asks the index for refs and feeds them through the shared load_utxo_models path — the same shape the address endpoint uses. load_utxo_models generalizes over the response model so both endpoints reuse it. The archive existence check runs only when the index returns nothing, which keeps the unknown-script 404.
• feat(cli): dolos doctor rebuild-utxo-indexes walks the state store's UTxO set once and re-applies every tag through the shared delta builder. Existing stores use it to backfill the new dimension in place (see Operations below). This commit is separable if resync-only is the preferred transition story.

Why an index and not an archive scan

Issue #1193 sketched a scan over the existing archive::SCRIPT tag. That approach fails on two counts:

Speed. The SCRIPT tag also covers witness usage, so a scan's cost grows with the script's whole execution history — not with the number of live rows. Worse, a script with no live reference UTxOs never fills a page, so a scan replays that whole history on every request. On mainnet this means minutes per request for well-known scripts (measured below).

Pruning. With sync.max_history set (the shipped mainnet and preprod examples set it), pruning deletes old blocks together with their index rows. A reference UTxO created before the retention window is still unspent, but a scan cannot find it: the endpoint returns fewer rows than exist, with no error. The existence check reads the same pruned data, so it can return 404 for a script that exists. This hits normal usage, not an edge case — teams deploy a reference script once and keep that UTxO forever, so under a 30-day window most reference UTxOs are older than the window.

The live-UTxO index has neither problem. Lookups cost O(live rows), and pruning never touches the live UTxO set. What remains on a pruned node is the same as on the address endpoint: the block field is "" when the creation block is pruned.

Pagination order under pruning: a row with a pruned creation block has no chain position. The page sort key ends with the TxoRef as a tie-breaker, so the order of such rows is arbitrary but stable — pages never repeat or drop rows. They sort before all positioned rows, which is close to chain order: a pruned block is older than any kept one. True chain order for them would need a stored position per UTxO; that is a possible follow-up. The tie-breaker lives in the shared load_utxo_models, so the address endpoint gets it too.

Performance (measured)

Measured on a full-archive mainnet snapshot (346 GB store, Apple Silicon, single warm process), comparing the archive-scan approach against the index. The "whales" are 2022-era Plutus V1 validators, found by tallying redeemers in congestion-era blocks. Reference inputs did not exist yet, so every execution carried the script in the witness set — each one tagged a block, and their tag histories are huge:

Query	Archive scan	Live index (this PR)
V1 whale A, 0 live reference UTxOs	332.6 s cold / 342.8 s warm	93 ms / 84 ms (archive existence check)
V1 whale B, 1 live reference UTxO	340.5 s	4 ms / 0.7 ms warm
4 Blockfrost mainnet fixture scripts	1–18 ms	0.6–7 ms

Script hashes used, for reproduction (GET /scripts/{hash}/utxos):

• whale A: 4a59ebd93ea53d1bbf7f82232c7b012700a0cf4bb78d879dabb1a20a
• whale B: ba158766c1bae60e2117ee8987621441fac66a5e0fb9c7aca58cf20a
• fixtures: 4f590a3d80ae0312bad0b64d540c3ff5080e77250e9dbf5011630016, 65c197d565e88a20885e535f93755682444d3c02fd44dd70883fe89e, 67f33146617a5e61936081db3b2117cbf59bd2123748f58ac9678656, a55b9f78156c141b53e19f9f380988b722c36a2ce2b5bc06bae95503 (the script hashes the official blockfrost-tests suite queries on mainnet)

The scan is CPU-bound on block decoding, so a warm cache does not help it. On testnet-sized histories both approaches answer in milliseconds — the worst case needs mainnet's V1 era to show.

Operations

• Fresh syncs and stelae snapshot restores populate the new dimension automatically (restore already rebuilds the live-UTxO indexes from state).
• A store upgraded in place has no script_ref rows until dolos doctor rebuild-utxo-indexes runs. The rebuild is local and linear over the UTxO set: ~3 minutes for mainnet's ~11 M live UTxOs. Until then the endpoint fails loudly (missing table) rather than serving silently incomplete data.
• Applying an index delta also stamps the index cursor, and bootstrap trusts that cursor to decide how much WAL to replay into the index store. To avoid marking a lagging index as caught up, the rebuild refuses to run unless the index cursor already matches the state cursor and points at doctor catchup-stores instead.

Testing

• 8 inline endpoint tests: happy path, pagination, asc/desc order, invalid pagination (400), invalid and missing hash (404), archive fault (500). The synthetic toy chain publishes a native reference script, so the tag path is covered end to end through the in-memory index store.
• Unit test pins the script_ref tag: an output with a reference script must produce a tag keyed by the script's tagged-CBOR hash.
• Unit test pins the pruned-row ordering contract: without a chain position the TxoRef decides deterministically, and the whole unknowable group sorts before any positioned row.
• dolos-cardano, dolos-redb3, dolos-minibf and dolos-snapshot suites green; workspace clippy clean with -D warnings; nightly fmt clean.
• The doctor command was exercised for real against the 346 GB mainnet store; the measurements above ran on the backfilled index.

Note: this branch is independent of #1199, but both touch query.rs and scripts.rs. Whichever merges second needs a small rebase.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Adds script-tag block streaming and a paginated /scripts/{script_hash}/utxos endpoint. The endpoint returns live UTxOs containing the script as a reference script, with ordering, validation, error handling, tests, and API documentation.

Changes

Script reference UTxOs

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Script-tag block query crates/cardano/src/indexes/query.rs	Adds blocks_by_script_stream to the public query extension and delegates to the existing script-tag stream helper.
Reference-script UTxO endpoint crates/minibf/mapping.rs, crates/minibf/routes/scripts.rs	Scans matching blocks, filters live reference-script outputs, and maps them to ScriptUtxosInner responses.
Route integration and validation crates/minibf/src/lib.rs, crates/minibf/routes/scripts.rs, docs/content/apis/minibf.mdx	Registers the route, adds endpoint tests, and documents the API.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to fc28d

For scripts without live reference UTxOs, this endpoint may scan and decode the entire indexed history during a request, which can make requests excessively slow or resource-intensive for commonly used scripts. Merge should wait for a bounded scan or explicit owner acceptance of this risk.

• Archive-backed discovery drops valid live UTxOs when sync.max_history is configured. Archive pruning removes old block bodies while the current state retains old unspent outputs, so this None branch silently omits them; the preceding script_by_hash lookup can even turn an old-only known script into a 404. The live endpoint needs discovery independent of archive retention, such as a current reference-script UTxO index.

        let Some(body) = body else {
            continue;

crates/minibf/src/routes/scripts.rs:231

• The new tests leave every matching reference-script output unspent, so they never exercise this live-set filter or the required “known script with no live reference UTxOs returns an empty page” behavior. Add a route test that spends/removes all matching refs while retaining the script publication and asserts an empty 200 response.

        // the state store holds only unspent outputs, so absence means spent.
        let live = domain
            .state()
            .get_utxos(

• This helper eagerly fetches and decodes every matching live UTxO and performs a block-metadata lookup for every distinct transaction before applying pagination. Consequently, even count=1 has work proportional to all outputs carrying a popular script, contrary to the PR's bounded archive-scan design. Use the ordered blocks_by_script_stream path and stop after filling the requested page, checking candidate refs against state in bounded batches.

    let items = super::utxos::load_utxo_models(&domain, refs, pagination).await?;

crates/minibf/src/routes/scripts.rs:155

• The required “known script with no live reference UTxOs returns an empty page” branch is not covered: the added empty-index tests only exercise an unknown hash and expect 404. Add a test where script_by_hash succeeds while utxos_by_script_ref is empty, asserting 200 [], so this semantic cannot regress.

    if refs.is_empty() {
        domain
            .query()
            .script_by_hash(&hash)
            .await
            .map_err(log_and_500("failed to query script by hash"))?
            .ok_or(StatusCode::NOT_FOUND)?;

        return Ok(Json(vec![]));

crates/cardano/src/indexes/dimensions.rs:29

• This introduces a new persistent UTxO index dimension, while the PR description explicitly says no dimension is added and that the endpoint scans the existing archive tag. Stores synced before this change have no script_ref entries, so the endpoint silently returns an empty page for live pre-upgrade reference UTxOs until the new doctor command is run. Either implement the advertised archive scan or document the required reindex migration and its operational impact.

    /// Hash of the reference script carried by the output
    pub const SCRIPT_REF: TagDimension = "script_ref";
