🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Add the id tie-break to the offset-paged order too.
getRecentDecisions orders only by created_at. Postgres does not guarantee a stable order for rows that share a timestamp, so an offset page boundary can repeat or drop such rows. The new cursor method already adds the id leg for this reason. The same one-line addition makes offset paging stable without changing the method contract.

@juanmrad, thank you. Adding the id tie-break will make offset pagination deterministic for identical created_at values.

I do think it's worth using the new cursor-paged function everywhere as a follow-up. Because decisions can be created frequently, then limit/offset pagination doesn't work super well -- the next page might include decisions that were already in the previous page. Worth creating a ticket for that at least!

Replace the cursor! assertions with a narrowed conditional.
The $if callback does not narrow cursor, so this block needs two non-null assertions. Apply the predicate with a plain if instead. The generated SQL and the ::uuid cast stay the same.

There is no limit on this query which makes it unbounded and potentially cause performance issues. Similarly getDecisionsForActivityFeed takes limit straight from the caller with no cap.
Once the GraphQL resolver wires this up, someone could pass limit: 1000000 and pin the read replica. Clamp it, e.g. const limit = Math.min(opts.limit, 200);

Pull request overview
This PR refactors the server-side “recent decisions” read path to support a new cursor-paged read (getDecisionsForActivityFeed) intended for a future merged activity feed, while preserving the existing offset-paged getRecentDecisions behavior.
Changes:
- Extracted the shared “recent decisions” SELECT + filter logic into a private query builder and consolidated row-to-API projection into a shared mapper.
- Added
getDecisionsForActivityFeedimplementing keyset pagination using(created_at, id)DESC ordering and a cursor predicate. - Added transactional tests covering cursor pagination correctness (including tied timestamps) and regression coverage for the offset-paged method.

I just looked into the indexes we have on this table. For some reason we have two b-tree indexes on created_at.
But can we add a new index on (org_id, created_at DESC, id DESC) to help this new cursor-based pagination? Worth doing now since this table tends to get pretty large over time.
Context & Requests for Reviewers
First of four for #386. Split out because it's the only one touching code that already serves users.
getRecentDecisionsis offset-paged. This issue needs a feed merged across two databases, which offset can't do. So: this extracted the shared query into a private builder, pulled the row creation into a shared function, and addedgetDecisionsForActivityFeed.idis a uuid column and the cursor casts to match. This prevents decisions who share a timestamp from getting dropped or repeated at the beginning or end of pages.Tests
None yet, but there are some in the stacked PRs
