Problem

Switching the active Mostro node (Settings → node pubkey) did not refresh the order book: it kept showing the previous node's orders until the app was killed and reopened.

set_mostro_pubkey re-runs subscribe_node_filters under the same stable subscription ids, on the assumption that the pool replaces the filters in place. nostr-sdk 0.45 does not: a subscribe whose id already exists is rejected with subscription ID already exists and the old filters stay live. The rejection is reported per relay inside an Ok output, so the call looked successful and nothing was logged.

Affected feeds, all left pinned to the previous node:

  • order book: Kind 38383 (pending and recent filters)
  • node NIP-65 relay list (Kind 10002)
  • bulk Kind 14 Mostro-reply feed (also refreshed by resubscribe_global_dm_filter whenever a trade key joins mid-session)

Fix

New replace_subscription helper in rust/src/api/orders.rs:

  • closes the id before re-issuing it (a no-op when it was never open). The CLOSE→REQ gap loses nothing: a node switch refetches the book right after, and the Kind 14 feed has no since, so its REQ replays history.
  • treats a subscribe that no relay accepted as an error instead of a silent success; partial per-relay failures are logged.

Every stable-id call in subscribe_node_filters and resubscribe_global_dm_filter goes through it. Per-trade, per-order and per-chat subscriptions (subscribe_daemon_messages, subscribe_single_order, subscribe_incoming_chat) are keyed per entity and closed when their task ends, so they are left as they were.

Contracts updated: contracts/settings.md (node switch) and contracts/orders.md (global DM coverage).

Tests

Two regression tests against nostr-sdk's in-process MockRelay, added as a native-only dev-dependency (local-relay feature) that doesn't touch the wasm build:

  • a_node_switch_retargets_every_live_subscription: subscribes for node A, switches to B, then asserts that all four stable ids are pinned to B. Without the fix it fails with subscription ID already exists.
  • a_subscription_no_relay_accepts_is_an_error: a feed with no REQ on any relay must not pass for a live one.

No public API change, so FRB bindings are unaffected (frb-generate.sh --check passes).

Test plan

  • cargo test (all green)
  • cargo clippy -D warnings, cargo check --target wasm32-unknown-unknown
  • flutter analyze
  • New test fails with the unsubscribe removed
  • Manual: on a device, switch from the default node to a local Mostro and confirm the order book shows the new node's orders without restarting the app

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Fixed subscription updates when switching active nodes, ensuring order, relay-list, and direct-message filters target the new node correctly.
    • Rejected subscription attempts when no relay accepts them, instead of reporting success.
    • Prevented stale filters from remaining active during subscription refreshes.
  • Documentation

    • Updated order and settings documentation to describe subscription replacement behavior and error handling.

nostr-sdk 0.45 rejects a subscribe whose id already exists and keeps the
old filters, reporting it per relay inside an Ok output. Switching Mostro
node re-ran subscribe_node_filters under the same stable ids, so the order
book, the node relay list and the Kind 14 feed stayed pinned to the
previous node until the app was restarted.

replace_subscription closes the id before re-issuing it and treats a
subscribe that no relay accepted as an error; partial failures are logged.
Regression tests run against nostr-sdk's in-process MockRelay (native-only
dev-dependency).

Walkthrough

The order API now closes stable subscription IDs before re-subscribing. It reports an error when no relay accepts the request. Tests, native development dependencies, and specifications document and validate the behavior.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 8b013

Switching nodes while a trade key is added can leave the global reply subscription missing that key, causing later trade replies to be missed. Serialize or retry the replacement before merge.

- Line 4022: Serialize the `subscribe_node_filters` snapshot with the
`replace_subscription` call for `mostro-dm` so node-switch replacement cannot
overwrite keys added by `ensure_global_dm_coverage` and
`resubscribe_global_dm_filter`; alternatively retry replacement when
`global_dm_keys` changes. Add a barrier-based test verifying the final filter
includes both the snapshot key and the newly added key.

Comment thread rust/src/api/orders.rs Outdated
A node switch and a trade key joining mid-session both replace the
mostro-dm subscription. The switch built its filter from a key snapshot
taken before its other re-subscribes, so it could overwrite a key that
ensure_global_dm_coverage had just added; interleaved CLOSE/REQ pairs
could also make one REQ fail with "subscription ID already exists",
aborting the switch before the book refetch.

replace_global_dm_filter now reads the coverage map and replaces the
filter under one lock, and is the only path for both callers;
subscribe_node_filters no longer takes a key snapshot.

The regression test releases 16 racers through a Barrier on a
multi-thread runtime; without the lock it failed 8/8 runs.
