After the upgrade to 0.1.0 the V1 state.sqlite stays next to statev2.sqlite, so rolling back to a version before 0.1.0 keeps working. In #20922 that is 14.1 GiB, and nothing offered a way to remove it.
t3 doctor now reports that file and offers Delete the database from before 0.1.0. The repair is never selected for you, and --fix skips it. Its description warns that a version before 0.1.0 would then start with no threads or settings. It deletes only state.sqlite and its -wal/-shm files, through a new DatabaseMaintenance.removeLegacyDatabase. Only versions before 0.1.0 open that file, so the background service keeps running. doctor no longer stops at "Nothing to repair" when this file is the only thing left. The user guide mentions the repair.
Recorded against a copy of real data after migration 63: an 8.59 GiB statev2.sqlite with 695 MiB reclaimable, plus a 2.11 GiB state.sqlite. The demo skips compaction and runs only the new repair. Steps:
--dry-run lists the repair and its warning.state.sqlite and nothing else.doctor no longer offers it.t3 doctor: the delete starts unchecked, is opted in explicitly, and only state.sqlite is removed
Against a copy of real data (8.58 GiB statev2.sqlite plus a 2.15 GiB state.sqlite):
| 1 | $ t3 doctor --dry-run |

| 11 | Warning: after this, a T3 Code version before 0.1.0 starts with no threads or settings, so you can no longer roll back. |

Verdict: Needs Human Approval
Macroscope's review found this PR requires human approval — This adds an interactive repair that permanently deletes the pre-0.1.0 database and its SQLite sidecar files, removing the ability to roll back while changing production persistence behavior. The safeguards and tests reduce accidental execution, but the irreversible data-management capability warrants human review.

t3 doctor now offers database compaction and legacy database deletion as separate repairs. The maintenance service reports the legacy database size and can remove the legacy database and its sidecars. Deletion is not recommended by default, and --fix does not select it.

Explanation
Issue #20922 requires addressing obsolete V1 data retained in statev2.sqlite, including the unread projection_thread_activities data. The issue explicitly does not request changing the separate V1 state.sqlite rollback file. This PR only adds reporting and optional deletion for the sibling state.sqlite; it does not implement the V2-table cleanup or tests for that cleanup.
Resolution
Implement the #20922 cleanup in statev2.sqlite. Preserve the V1 tables still required by LegacyV1ThreadImporter. Remove the unread V1 tables identified by the issue, and add automated tests that verify the cleanup and retained importer data.
Explanation
For the supplied linked issue #20922, the new DatabaseMaintenance.removeLegacyDatabase operation, legacy-file inspection, doctor repair, related tests, and user-guide text change the separate rollback file state.sqlite. Issue #20922 explicitly excludes that file and focuses on obsolete data inside statev2.sqlite.
Resolution
Remove the legacy state.sqlite repair changes from this issue's scope, or link an active issue that requires this repair and assess it against that issue separately.
Explanation
The description explains the problem, implementation, behavior, demo, and verification results. It does not include the required Scope and approval section or explain maintainer approval or an applicable approval exemption.
Resolution
Add a Scope and approval section. Link the triaged issue or maintainer approval with the approval comment, or explain why this focused change qualifies for an exemption. Use the template headings for Problem, Change, Scope and approval, and Verification where applicable.

Delete the main legacy database before its WAL and SHM files.
If state.sqlite-wal is removed but state.sqlite removal fails, removeLegacyDatabase reports an error while leaving the legacy database without its WAL. A pre-0.1.0 version can still open that database for rollback, and committed transactions may be lost. This is a narrow failure path, but preserve the database until the main file is removed.

Fixed in 8de177c: the database file is deleted first, then its WAL and SHM.
@juliusmarminge Thanks for fixing this. Deleting the database first addresses the failure path described in this finding.

Refuse removal while an older server uses the legacy database.
An update can leave a pre-0.1.0 service running. This operation does not check whether that service has state.sqlite open before deleting its WAL and database files. Deleting a WAL while SQLite uses it can lose committed transactions or corrupt the database. Require an offline check for the legacy database before removing any file. (sqlite.org)

✅ Addressed in commit 8de177c
Fixed in 8de177c. removeLegacyDatabase now takes the same exclusive lock that compact uses on state.sqlite and holds it while deleting. If a version before 0.1.0 still has the file open, it fails with DatabaseInUseError and deletes nothing. A test covers a live connection holding the file.
@juliusmarminge Thanks for the fix. The updated removeLegacyDatabase acquires the exclusive lock before deleting any files and holds it during deletion. If lock acquisition fails, deletion does not run and DatabaseInUseError propagates. This addresses the finding.
