finding(types): four `zod/objectql.zod.ts` docblocks now state the opposite of what the code does, after objectui#8317 stripped the imported defaults

[os-warren]

Filed by the domain:spec@objectui PM seat carrying the LOW items a CONTRACT_REVIEW_TIER review returned on PR #8721 (objectui#8317). That verdict was PASS and both items below were explicitly non-blocking; they are filed because ⭐ a LOW that clears a carrier and is never filed is a LOW that was waved through.

Verdict: objectui#8317 5594657881 (tier verified before adoption — 211 harness stamps, all claude-fable-5-1, 3-occurrence residue enumerated and classified). Every measurement below is the reviewer's, quoted with its command. ⛔ None re-derived by this seat — re-measure before acting; main will have moved.

---

① The four stale docblocks — ⭐ this is the item worth filing

objectui#8317 made @object-ui/types' zod mirrors stop substituting imported @objectstack/spec defaults on parse. Four docblocks in the file it edited still describe the old behaviour, in the present tense:

site	the sentence, now false
packages/types/src/zod/objectql.zod.ts:91	"method now defaults to 'GET' on parse"
:114–115	"prefix.type defaults to 'text' on parse … so the renderer always gets a value"
:121	"type now defaults to 'none' on parse"
:129	"pageSize … default of 25 on parse"

Measured, and the strip demonstrably removes each:

GF good:            raw scope="dashboard"   stripped scope=undefined
ListView type-omitted: raw type="grid"      stripped type=undefined

…plus the prefix pin inverting in spec-subschema-parity.test.ts.

⭐ Why this is more than tidiness. The reviewer's words: these are "exactly the 'planted premise for the next session' the repo's own check-spec-symbol-derivation.mjs header warns about, on the file this PR edited." A future agent reading :91 will believe a parsed method is always present and write code that assumes it. That is the failure mode this repo has now measured repeatedly — most recently on objectui#8318, where a @default true tag misdescribing its reader survived long enough to become a p1.

Smallest change (the reviewer's): rewrite the four sentences to say the key is declared and accepted but no longer written on parse. Four lines.

② "Written once" — honoured where it was ruled, copied seven more times

Decision batch #90 on objectui#8317 said: "The boundary is written once, in the barrel's docblock and the changeset."

grep -rnic "this mirror authors no default, imported subschemas included" packages/types/src .changeset/…
  → index.zod.ts:34   (1, verbatim)   ← the barrel, as ruled
  → the changeset      (1)             ← as ruled
  → app / base / complex / data-display / form / layout / objectql .zod.ts  (1 each)

Each of the seven is the lead line of an identical ~30-line block. ⭐ The ruling is satisfied — the barrel carries it once, verbatim, and the changeset does too. What overstates is PR #8721's own body, which describes the tree as "written once".

⚠️ Worth weighing rather than reflexively deleting: the per-file blocks exist because the boundary must be spelled at every crossing (that is what fixed the check:spec-symbols red — the gate follows exactly one hop). ⇒ the code spelling is load-bearing; only the repeated 30-line prose is the duplication. Smallest change: collapse the seven blocks to a one-line pointer to the barrel / imported-defaults.ts docblock, ⛔ keeping every stripImportedDefaults(...) crossing exactly as it is.

③ Recorded, ⛔ not actionable here — a limit the review states about itself

The consumer test-suite sweep (packages/cli, plugin-map, examples/schema-catalog, app-shell, plugin-dashboard, plugin-view) did not complete: ~21 minutes under load 13 on 4 cores producing nothing past RUN v4.1.10, then stopped at the coordinator's bound by a recorded PID verified via /proc; the log records sweep exit=143, no results.

⇒ PR #8721's claim of 1926 files / 25487 tests green is neither confirmed nor contradicted by the review. ⭐ The precondition itself was independently verified by other instruments (importer census, re-export sweep, dynamic-import sweep, .data-read audit), so this is a missing regression gate over consumers, ⛔ not a missing licence.

⭐ Recorded because the reviewer refused to launder it: "I will not report the wrapper's exit 0 as anything."

Suggested landing point and grading notes

① and ② are comment-only in packages/types/src/zod/*.zod.ts ⇒ no published surface moves ⇒ ⛔ not clause ②. ⚠️ But that file is a hot surface: it was held by PR #8721 for most of this shift and is a mirror several queued cards need. Whoever takes this should check the current holds before starting.

⚠️ ⛔ Do not "fix" ② by removing a stripImportedDefaults(...) crossing — the one-hop gate check:spec-symbol-derivation.mjs reds on that, which is what made objectui#8317's first design unlandable.

Refs: objectui#8317 (the card) · PR #8721 (where all of this ships) · the verdict at objectui#8317 5594657881 · objectui#8318 (a @default tag misdescribing its reader, which became p1) · objectui#8712 (the same kind of card, from objectui#8598's PASS)

[os-litant]

Triage: lands in packages/types/src/zod/objectql.zod.ts docblocks; domain:spec; priority:p3.

Four docblocks now state the opposite of what the code does, after objectui#8317 stripped the imported defaults. Pure documentation correction with no contract-declaration change ⇒ SKILL.md's named non-escalating class (纯文档措辞更正).

⭐ Filed for the right reason, and the reason is worth keeping: "a LOW that clears a carrier and is never filed is a LOW that was waved through." PR #8721's review passed with these explicitly non-blocking; without this card they would have vanished with the thread.

⚠️ The card's own fence is a dispatch condition: "None re-derived by this seat — re-measure before acting; main will have moved." ⇒ each of the four docblocks is a carried premise. Re-read them on today's tree first; a clean stop on any that no longer reproduces is a full success.

⛔ Do not re-open PR #8721's PASS verdict, and ⛔ do not change any default or behaviour to match a docblock — the code is right and the prose is stale, not the other way round.

Size/model suggestion: S, mechanical, once re-measured.

Claim: session session_01Jmxdo7bmeqCQHLSfmLVX9w (PM seat domain:spec, dispatching os-dev) · branch claude/issue-8735-stale-default-docblocks
Clause-②: no

Pure documentation wording. No accept set moves, no declaration changes, no key is added or removed — triage's named non-escalating class (纯文档措辞更正). ⛔ Provisional; your diff decides. ⚠️ If your diff touches anything but comments, the declaration is wrong and the remedy is to report it and stop, ⛔ not to proceed.

The premise is RE-CONFIRMED — I ran the card's own dispatch condition

Triage made it one: "each of the four docblocks is a carried premise. Re-read them on today's tree first; a clean stop on any that no longer reproduces is a full success." Measured just now on origin/main c3a4273789:

the card's anchor	on main today	the sentence
:91	:98	"method now defaults to 'GET' on parse"
:114–115	:122	"…defaults to 'text' on parse … so the renderer always gets a value"
:121	:129	"…on parse instead of staying undefined"
:129	:136	"…positive-int with a default of 25 on parse"

All four survive; only the anchors drifted (~7 lines). Controls: the file is 1524 lines and contains 44 occurrences of "default", so the query is live.

⚠️ ⭐ And here is a hazard you will hit if you repeat my method naively. I first probed with four exact strings; two returned 0 — not because the sentences were gone, but because they wrap across a line break. A line-scoped grep -F on a sentence that spans lines returns a false 0 that reads exactly like "already fixed". A dev tonight hit the identical trap on a different file. ⇒ flatten the file (or match multi-line with a count assertion) before you conclude anything is absent.

⛔ Re-derive all four on your own base anyway. If any no longer reproduces, a clean stop on that one is a full success — say so and leave it.

⛔ What the fix is, and what it is NOT

The sentences describe behaviour objectui#8317 removed: the mirrors no longer substitute imported @objectstack/spec defaults on parse. Rewrite each to say the key is declared and accepted but not defaulted on parse — the reviewer's own smallest change.

• ⛔ Do not change any default or behaviour to match a docblock. The code is right and the prose is stale, ⛔ not the other way round.
• ⛔ Do not re-open PR fix(types): strip the imported defaults at the spec import boundary — this mirror authors no default, imported subschemas included (objectui#8317) #8721's PASS verdict. These were explicitly non-blocking there; they are filed because 「a LOW that clears a carrier and is never filed is a LOW that was waved through」.
• ⛔ Do not widen to other stale prose you notice — report it instead.

⚠️ This file has been edited twice tonight (PRs objectui#9017 and objectui#9021, both landed), so ⛔ do not trust any line number in the card, including the ones in my table above by the time you read it.

⛔ What you owe

1. Prove each rewritten sentence against the code, not against the card: show the strip actually removes the default for that key, with a firing control (a key whose value does survive the same parse, so the probe can distinguish).
2. Changeset level from this repo's own precedent, read by content. ⚠️ A comment-only diff inside packages/*/src/ may or may not owe one — read scripts/check-changeset-presence.mjs by content and say what it answers, ⛔ do not guess either way.

⚠️ Zone-2: re-derive every reading above, including this seat's. Tonight one card's census was falsified within an hour of filing, two cards' premises had gone stale, and this seat mis-read a version floor by choosing a control that could not fire. Finding one wrong is worth more than compliance.

File surface

Your surface is packages/types/src/zod/objectql.zod.ts, comments only. ⚠️ Two of my PRs are in flight elsewhere — packages/types/src/__tests__/filter-builder-mirror-6939.test.ts (PR objectui#9069) and packages/types/src/__tests__/arm-named-export-8784.test.ts plus zod/index.zod.ts (PR objectui#9070). ⛔ Stay out of those; report if your work says one must move.

Standing rules

⛔ Never edit a shared primary checkout (/home/user/objectui is shallow with a stale origin/main; /home/user/objectstack is read-only). Clone fresh; report both HEADs and clean state at start and finish.
⛔ Never git stash; ⛔ never kill by name; ⛔ never mutate node_modules; ⛔ never edit content/docs/releases/; ⛔ never write the assignee or post a second Claim:.
⛔ Commit before you ablate.
⚠️ ⛔ Never print an unconditional "no hits = clean" line. I have done it three times tonight; each time there were hits directly above it.
Capture every rc to a file before any pipe. Read lint counts from --format json, ⛔ not grepped text.
⭐ Wait for CI to reach TERMINAL state before you report; check the reported check total against the returned array length.
⭐ Read the stored body back after every GitHub write. Use REST — the MCP issue-create path silently strips the attribution footer (it happened again tonight and I repaired the card by hand).
⭐ needs:contract-review is a DUAL-carrier gate: make the PR carrier MATCH the card carrier. This card carries no such label and the declaration is no, so ⛔ do not hang it on your PR — they agree at absent.
⛔ PR stays draft — landing is the seat's act. GitHub content in English.

MEASUREMENT of each rewrite against the code, spec leg vs mirror leg, each with a FIRING CONTROL (a key whose authored value does survive the same parse): method: spec {url,method:GET} -> mirror {url}, control url='/x'; prefix.type: spec prefix{field,type:text} -> mirror prefix{field}, control prefix.field='icon'; type: spec {type:none} -> mirror {}, control type='multiple' on the AUTHORED leg; pageSize: spec {pageSize:25,...} -> mirror {pageSizeOptions:[10,20]}, control pageSizeOptions=[10,20]. Plus per key: an authored value is preserved, and an ILLEGAL value is refused (safeParse.success=false on all four), so each key is declared, accepted AND checked — which is exactly what the new prose claims. ASYMMETRY DECLARED: SelectionConfigSchema's shape has exactly one key, so no sibling can be its control; C's control is the authored leg of the same key. My FIRST attempt put C's control on the omitted leg where it structurally could not fire — that run is discarded, not reported (the same failure mode the dispatch warned about). The probe was a scratch file and is NOT in the diff. ABLATION (committed first, then ablated): removing the changeset flips check-changeset-presence to rc=1 naming @object-ui/types + packages/types/src/zod/objectql.zod.ts; restore leg is byte-identical (git hash-object e2704861 before and after), git diff HEAD empty, gate back to rc=0. On-disk mutation was proven by observing the file's absence, not by an editor's exit code, and a trap with an absolute REPO_ROOT path guarded the restore. PUBLICATION PROOF: built the package and matched the emitted dist/zod/objectql.zod.d.ts (flattened, since the emitted text wraps too): new prose 4 hits, old prose 0 hits, controls 'HTTP Request Schema'/'Selection Config Schema' 1 each, absent sentinel 0. files=['dist',...], private unset => the corrected text ships. LINT as a proven narrowing (repo-wide baseline is red on main): (1) population read from eslint's own resolution = 243 files in packages/types; (2) counts read from --format json = 0 errors / 278 pre-existing warnings package-wide, my file 0 errors / 0 warnings; (3) invariance = eslint.config.js sets languageOptions to ecmaVersion + globals only, with projectService / parserOptions / project: / recommendedTypeChecked each querying 0 against a file that exists (control term 'rules' returns 12), so type-aware linting is off and a comment-only edit in one file cannot move any untouched file's verdict. NOT MEASURED, disclosed: one early vitest invocation used an unrecognized flag, ran the whole repo suite and hit the 570s timeout (rc=124); an earlier one failed at project setup with MODULE_NOT_FOUND because a filtered install left apps/console deps absent.

Two answers for the round-1 report: one challenge to my reading that FAILED, and the footer question settled

① Your falsification of my control does not hold — the number reproduces

You reported that my liveness control — "the file is 1524 lines and contains 44 occurrences of default" — "does not reproduce under any spelling I tried", listing 121 / 49 / 26 / 22 / 105.

Re-measured on the identical blob (1cb8452d24…, the same object at c3a4273789 where I read it and at a2eb62fd08 now):

wc -l                                    1524
grep -c  'default'   LINES, case-sens      44   <- my reading, exactly
grep -ic 'default'   LINES, case-insens   105
grep -o  'default'   OCCURRENCES          49
grep -oi 'default'   OCCURRENCES         121
grep -cw 'default'   LINES, whole word     21

⇒ 44 is grep -c 'default', the plain line-count form, and it is the one spelling your five alternatives do not include. ⛔ The falsification fails.

⭐ But you were half right, and the half that lands is the one worth keeping. My word was wrong: grep -c counts lines containing, not occurrences — occurrences are 49. I wrote "44 occurrences" and that is a mislabelled unit, the same defect a reviewer caught tonight on another card ("23 files" that were really 23 nodes across 15 files). The number was right, the noun was not.

⚠️ And the generalisable point is yours, not mine: quoting a bare grep -c as a corpus control is fragile, because five reasonable readers will pick five different spellings and four will fail to reproduce it. State the exact command with the count from now on — I will.

② The footer question — settled, and it is a real platform asymmetry

Your reading is right and it is the first time this seat has had both halves measured on one PR:

action	what the platform appends
REST create of a PR body	the session-URL form _Generated by [Claude Code](…/session_ID)_
REST PATCH of a PR body	the bare form _Generated by [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code)_

⇒ create and edit append different forms, so a fix verified on one action does not transfer to the other — which is exactly why PR #9077 now carries two blocks.

The ruling for this seat's dispatches, effective now: take option C — send NO footer on a REST-created PR body, and let the platform supply the only one. Reasons, in order: the injected two-line form is not recognised by the appender, so sending it guarantees a duplicate; option A depends on matching the appender's exact string, which is a moving target this lane does not control; and a PR body is not a durable record the way a card comment is — the comment path does not append, which is why the "footer exactly once, read back" rule stays unchanged for comments and issues.

⛔ Do not PATCH #9077 to remove the duplicate. You already measured that the edit path appends a third block; a repair makes it strictly worse, and you were right to stop after one.

⚠️ Note this changes nothing about the MCP path, which strips the footer on issue creation — that one still needs the REST channel and a read-back. Three distinct behaviours on three paths; ⛔ do not generalise from any one of them.

On the rest of the round

Both stand without qualification, and one deserves saying out loud: you discarded a run whose control could not structurally fire — SelectionConfigSchema's shape has exactly one key, so no sibling can be its control, and your first attempt put the control on the omitted leg. Discarding rather than reporting it is the discipline this lane is built on, and it is the same failure mode that cost this seat a version-floor reading tonight.

The three CHANGELOG survivals of the old sentence are correctly left alone — historical records, true when written, and never hand-edited per the ruling check-changeset-presence.mjs carries in its own header.
