Seven wrong claims on the page, each reproduced on v2026.09.17.1 against self-hosted 26.8.1 and Cloud 26.4.1: the reviewer's three open majors plus the retry bullet, the flush_interval_seconds floor, the tumbling-window bullet and the version pins. The taxi example, the NULL cases, the timestamp strings and every link still hold, and the throughput numbers are re-measured. The harness is committed beside the status because it is the configuration that reproduces each claim. The page's behavioral claims have no config and no test behind them today, which is the gap the next session closes. If this is lost, the next session re-runs a day of benchmarks to learn the same seven things.
The 2026-09-18 findings were measured on v2026.09.17.1, five releases back. Every one was re-run on v2026.10.08, and every one still holds. Two of the open items are now closed, and two new findings came out. - The flush_interval_seconds floor is a doc fix only. #259 removed the comment that claimed it, and the schema never enforced it. - ReplacingMergeTree on self-hosted reads 4 rows, and 2 with FINAL, for a replayed block. A plain MergeTree keeps both copies. - The Bluesky example landed 2,000 posts on self-hosted. - Docker Desktop 29.8.0 has no port-forwarding cap: a host binary ran as fast as the in-network container. The page's third throughput row goes. - v2026.10.08 ran about 13 percent slower than v2026.09.17.1 on the same machine the same day. Not bisected. The window rig was rewritten for the watermark config. The old win.yml no longer validates. sqlflow.mdx is the page with every finding applied. It has not been pushed to the ClickHouse fork. If this is wrong, nothing breaks at runtime. The page draft would carry a wrong claim to a third-party repo, and STATUS.md names the output behind each one.

The draft page carried Cloud figures from v2026.09.17.1 and had dropped its claim that Cloud and self-hosted return the same counts. Both are now measured on v2026.10.08 against Cloud 26.6.1. - The Verify query returns the same counts on Cloud as on self-hosted. - Cloud ran 12,760 to 13,654 rows a second. September's image ran 12,495 and 12,926 over the same link in the same hour, so the drop from 28,000 is the network, not the engine. - One run read 980,000 rows right after exit. Cloud's insert logs show all 1,000,000 written and acknowledged after the flush. A replica that had not fetched the newest part served the read. perfcloud.sh now counts with select_sequential_consistency=1. perfcloud.sh now reads ~/.sqlflow-clickhouse instead of taking the password as an argument, where ps would show it. If this is wrong, the page would tell readers Cloud and self-hosted agree when they do not. cloudverify.out holds the counts.
v2026.10.08 ran about 11 percent slower than v2026.09.17.1 on the taxi pipeline, 58,457 against 65,928 rows a second over three alternating runs each. A bisect of the 87 main-branch commits between the tags, built with one Go toolchain, finds two causes of about 6 percent each: - #345 lowered the Kafka fetch defaults to cap read-ahead memory. Setting the old bounds in the fetch block restores 62,873 and 61,639. - #338 bumped jsonparser past 1.2.0. Alone it costs the whole bump; the cost arrived in 1.3.0. Every other bump in #338 measures flat. The user accepted both while memory stays flat. If the attribution is wrong, the page's throughput figures still stand: they are measured on the release they name. throughput-bisect.out holds every run.
The draft said a String column takes any UTF-8. The matrix proves it with one value, so the cell now quotes that value, like every other row.

What this changes
Adds
docs/superpowers/status/clickhouse-117740/: the evidence behind theClickHouse integration page,
re-verified on
v2026.10.08, the harness that produced it, and a draft of thepage with every finding applied. No engine code changes.
Eight claims on the page are wrong. Three are the reviewer's open majors:
VARCHAR,UUID,JSONrow presents a cross-product the type matrixnever proved. Each destination is proven with its own text form.
NULLinto a non-NullableEnum8with no zero member writes a row thatcannot be read back.
SELECTfails withUNKNOWN_ELEMENT_OF_ENUM.ReplacingMergeTreecollapses replay duplicates on a background merge, noton read. Self-hosted: 4 rows, 2 with
FINAL.Five more came out of re-running:
user.sink.encode_failed, exit 10. Thepage says it runs the retry ladder and reports
system.sink.unreachable.flush_interval_secondshas no floor of 30. Slow-moving data: liveness proven under trickle, surge, and silence #259 removed the comment thatclaimed one. This is a doc fix only.
bucket, read in ten batches, publishes one row of 1,000.
The taxi example, its Verify counts, the Bluesky example, the NULL cases, the
timestamp strings and the Decimal and
to_jsonworkarounds all reproduce.One possible engine regression.
v2026.10.08ran about 13 percent slowerthan
v2026.09.17.1on the same machine the same day. It is not bisected.What breaks if this is wrong: nothing at runtime. The page draft would carry

The page is on the ClickHouse fork as
d4e94780, with a reply on each openthread. Marking Docs: Add sqlflow integration page (data ingestion, community) ClickHouse/ClickHouse#117740 ready for review is the user's call.
Cloud was re-run on
v2026.10.08against Cloud 26.6.1. The Verify queryreturns the same counts as self-hosted.
