# TODO ## Outstanding Issues ### 1. Ctrl+C Signal Handling Issue **Problem**: The crawler sometimes doesn't exit properly when Ctrl+C is pressed. **Root Cause**: The main thread gets stuck in blocking operations before it can check for signals: - Database operations in the polling loop (`cmd/crawler/crawler.go:239-250`) - Job queueing when channel is full (`jobs <- url` can block if workers are slow) - Long-running database transactions **Location**: `cmd/crawler/crawler.go` - main polling loop starting at line 233 **Solution**: Add signal/context checking to blocking operations: - Use cancellable context instead of `context.Background()` for database operations - Make job queueing non-blocking or context-aware - Add timeout/cancellation to database operations ### 2. fetchSnapshotsFromHistory() Doesn't Work with --skip-identical-content=true **Problem**: When `--skip-identical-content=true` (default), URLs with unchanged content get continuously re-queued. **Root Cause**: The function tracks when content last changed, not when URLs were last crawled: - Identical content → no new snapshot created - Query finds old snapshot timestamp → re-queues URL - Creates infinite loop of re-crawling unchanged content **Location**: `cmd/crawler/crawler.go:388-470` - `fetchSnapshotsFromHistory()` function **Solution Options**: 1. Add `last_crawled` timestamp to URLs table 2. Create separate `crawl_attempts` table 3. Always create snapshot entries (even for duplicates) but mark them as such 4. Modify logic to work with existing schema constraints **Current Status**: Function assumes `SkipIdenticalContent=false` per original comment at line 391.
