+Correct four `zod/objectql.zod.ts` docblocks that described the behaviour objectui#8317
+removed. Since that change the zod mirrors strip imported `@objectstack/spec` defaults at
+this package's import boundary, but the docblocks on `HttpRequestSchema`, `ListColumnSchema`,
+`SelectionConfigSchema` and `PaginationConfigSchema` still said, in the present tense, that
+`method`, `prefix.type`, `type` and `pageSize` are defaulted on parse — the opposite of what
+each export does. Each now says the key is declared and accepted but NOT defaulted on parse.
+
+Comment-only: no default, no behaviour and no accept set moves. The corrected text is
+published — it is emitted verbatim into `dist/zod/objectql.zod.d.ts`, which is why it earns
+an entry rather than being an internal note.
