## Background `PostgreSQL-CDC` can currently run as a continuous CDC source, but there is no dedicated startup mode for "snapshot only" jobs that should exit after the snapshot phase. Users who want a one-time bootstrap from PostgreSQL must currently rely on workarounds instead of a clear source-level mode. ## Proposed change Add a snapshot-only startup mode to `PostgreSQL-CDC`. ## Expected behavior - The source reads snapshot data for configured tables. - No WAL consumption continues after snapshot completion. - The job finishes successfully after the snapshot phase. ## Acceptance criteria - `PostgreSQL-CDC` accepts a snapshot-only startup mode. - Snapshot-only mode works with the incremental snapshot path that SeaTunnel already exposes. - End-of-job behavior is deterministic and documented. - English and Chinese docs are updated. - Add at least one focused validation path. ## Out of scope - Committed-offset startup. - Dynamic newly-added table discovery. - Broader CDC runtime refactors. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
