But the rows attach to NOTHING: sys_activity.record_id is Field.text(), not a lookup, and the loader resolves natural keys only for lookup/master_detail fields, so it stores the literal string while the lead's id is a runtime nanoid. Using the filter the shipped console bundle actually issues ({object_name, record_id}, read out of the bundle, not inferred): the real lead id tgIjpNhjlfmWU8YF returns 0 rows, the literal key 'Lisa Thompson' returns 3. So a seed-only route leaves the tab empty while the seed book looks populated. Ownership is NOT the obstacle (unlike the crm_forecast precedent the card pointed at): sys_activity declares no owner_id at all and the rows read back fine over REST. Two more facts against the route: sys_activity is lifecycle.class 'telemetry' with retention maxAge 14d and day-shard rotation, so demo history older than a fortnight is reaped by design; and interaction rows have exactly two writer sites in src/ (the log_call/log_meeting factory in global.actions.ts, send_email in contact.actions.ts), so any bootstrap hook writing pointer rows would be the #702 two-producer conflict one object over. I did NOT fake rows through a back door and did NOT add a fourth writer. Shipped instead: one guard block in test/seed-consistency.test.ts holding seeds inside the app's own object graph, with the full measurement written into the comment so the next author inherits it.

Reverse verification of the new guard, predicted direction RED, observed RED: re-registering the sys_activity seed failed exactly one test with \"expected [ 'sys_activity' ] to deeply equal []\" while the other 36 in the file stayed green, so the guard is specific rather than a blanket break. Mutation confirmed ON DISK before the run by grepping the injected import, the array entry and the seed file's own sys_activity line (all non-zero); restore leg confirmed the same way (file absent, 0 mentions in index.ts); the script carried trap '<restore>' EXIT INT TERM. No rebuild leg applies: the test imports ../src/data/index and ../objectstack.config as source through vitest's transform, not across a package exports -> dist/ boundary. Boot-level measurement ran twice on a real server (rm -rf .objectstack/data && pnpm build && pnpm dev, port 4002), reading sys_activity through both sqlite and the authenticated REST API; both dev servers were stopped by PID.

Real business need: the interaction narrative ALREADY exists in the demo data as crm_event rows -- what is missing is only the platform's pointer row, so this is a platform capability gap, not an unmet CRM need; that is exactly the shape the charter sends upstream rather than working around. Long-term soundness: A is contract-first (fix the producer/spec, not the consumer); C is a workaround that manufactures the #702 two-producer conflict on a second object, and its cost is permanent -- every action-created interaction would carry two rows forever. Hard-to-get-wrong for AI-authored metadata: A plus the guard already shipped is the only option where the failure is refused rather than silently accepted; C actively teaches the wrong pattern (a fourth writer) and B leaves 'demo:reset' alone producing an empty tab, which is the same success-receipt-for-nothing shape the guard exists to prevent. Startup scope discipline: A costs this repo nothing beyond the card already filed, D costs nothing at all; B is a new script to maintain and C is new runtime metadata shipped in the artifact for a demo-only concern -- both widen the surface for a demo nicety, which is what the charter's 'hotcrm 主要是展现平台能力，并且不扩散需求' rules against. If the tab must be non-empty this quarter, B is the least-bad because it ships nothing in the artifact; C should be refused on all four axes." } ], "out_of_scope_findings": [ "filed as objectstack#11339: seeds cannot address an ActivityPointer -- sys_activity.record_id is plain text, so a packaged app loads timeline rows that attach to nothing, at every gate green.

needs-user-decisionwith the dev's four options. The guard PR stands on its own.Reviewed against the running server's metadata and GitHub, not against the report.
I verified the two load-bearing facts myself
From the live instance's
/api/v1/meta/object:sys_activity.record_id → type: "text", reference_to: null sys_activity.lifecycle → class: "telemetry", retention.maxAge: "14d"record_idis plain text, so the seed loader's natural-key resolution (lookup/master_detail only) never fires — a seeded row stores the literal string while the real lead id is a runtime nanoid, and the console's{object_name, record_id}filter finds nothing. Independently, telemetry-class retention reaps demo history after a fortnight. Either fact alone kills the route I wrote into this card; the dev found both, faked nothing through a back door, and refused to add a fourth writer (which would have been the #702 two-producer conflict one object over).The dev's measurement discipline is worth naming: rows were actually authored and loaded (342 → 345 at boot), read back over REST, and shown to attach to nothing — "the seed book looks populated while the tab stays empty" is exactly the success-receipt-for-nothing failure shape, demonstrated rather than asserted.
What ships regardless of the decision
PR #1260 (guard only:
test/seed-consistency.test.tsrefusessys_*seeds outside the app's object graph, reverse-verified red on exactly one test). This is compatible with routes A, B and D, and it is what makes route C impossible to ship by accident. Recommending merge independent of the route choice.Disposition
pm:dispatched→needs-user-decision; assignee cleared. The four routes and the dev's four-axis recommendation (A, with B as interim) are in the report comment above; the choice is the maintainer's.- objectstack#11339 verified: open, unassigned, no pm-state labels, back-linked — the platform half (ActivityPointer not seedable; includes the cheap refuse-the-unresolvable-write option).
- The tenancy-warning note (autonumber counters split on 0-org installs, metadata-protocol#8686) is flagged, not filed — correctly, since it names its own upstream issue; left for triage's judgement.
Maintainer decision — Route A
Verbatim (未译, in-session 2026-08-23): 「1258 A，11339 你可以直接处理。」
Route A: wait for the upstream fix (objectstack-ai/objectstack#11339 — seeds cannot address an ActivityPointer) and keep the Activity tab honestly empty until it lands. No interim script (B not taken), no bootstrap writer (C refused on all four axes in the dev report), ambition not dropped (D not taken).
Consequences applied:
- Guard PR test(seed): guard that seeds stay inside the app's own object graph (#1258) #1260 merges now — Route A presumes it (the failure stays refused, not silently accepted, until the platform makes the pointer seedable).
- This card →
pm:blocked, unassigned.
Blocked-by: objectstack-ai/objectstack#11339
When #11339 closes, the unlock scan returns this card to the queue; the then-current dispatch re-verifies the seed shape against whatever resolution mechanism the platform shipped, and the demo interactions get authored at that point.
The second half of the ruling — handling #11339 itself — proceeds under the same direct-dispatch authorization on that card's thread.
Unlock scan — upstream closed, but the runnable condition is a RELEASE, not the merge. →

8d237b40): text fields may declarereferenceVia: '<sibling>', the seed loader resolves declared pointer pairs per row and refuses unresolvable ones loudly, andsys_activityadopts both pairs — the exact mechanism this card's Route A waits for.Flipping straight back to
pm:queuewould burn a dev run: hotcrm consumes published@objectstack/*packages (currently 17.1.0), and the merge is not yet in any release. Releases are human acts. So per the state model this becomes a made-decision hold with an executable exit:Restart-when: hotcrm's installed
@objectstack/specresolves a version whoseFieldSchemaacceptsreferenceVia(ships in the first platform release containing objectstack8d237b40; verify withnode -e "require('@objectstack/spec')"-level probe or the liveness ledger's field.json gaining the key)When that fires, the dispatch is already shaped (recorded here so the next seat inherits it, whoever it is):
- Delete
test/seed-consistency.test.ts's sys_ guard block deliberately* — its own comment instructs exactly this ("if a future platform release makes an ActivityPointer target seedable, delete this test deliberately — do not widen it"). - Author the demo interactions the original card asked for, now with
record_idresolving throughobject_name— re-verify the shape against the shipped resolution mechanism rather than this comment. - Note the 14d telemetry retention when choosing seeded timestamps (
daysAgo(n)with n < 14, or the rows are reaped before anyone demos them).
Maintainer lever, stated plainly: the platform release that carries
8d237b40, then hotcrm's dep bump, are both human acts. This card wakes on the bump.- Delete

e0563de4:Fixes #1258, a real changeset, 5 files (+187 −71). No governed-surface path. - Route A executed (ruling 5386129833): the platform's
sys_activitypointer rows are seeded; there is no app-side imitation object. - Measured first on 17.4.0, and all three 17.1.0 blockers are gone:
- Readonly strip: the rows land.
- Pointer resolution:
record_id/source_idresolve viareferenceVia. - Retention: still 14 days, so seeds stay at
daysAgo1..9.
- Browser: two seeded leads show Activity (2); two control leads show Activity (0). A replay boot keeps 4 rows with no duplicates.
- Guard block in
test/seed-consistency.test.tsdeleted deliberately, as its own comment asked, and replaced by a positive pin. The reverse check (unregistering the dataset) turns 2 tests red. - Declared deviation, accepted:
objectstack.composition.ts(+2 −1).CrmSeedDatais assembled there, not insrc/sales/data/index.ts; this is exactly the registration the claim authorised, in the only file it can live in. - Acceptance note, not filed (no carrier): on a fresh DB the pointer rows are first stored with
record_idNULL and filled ~30 s later by a loader pass, so an Activity tab opened in that window reads empty.
Seat lands through the merge queue once all checks are green (hotcrm has no required checks, so auto-merge is armed only on a green head).
- PR feat(seed): the lead Activity tab shows logged interactions out of the box (#1258) #1959 at
Seed logged interactions so the lead Activity tab demonstrates something out of the box
Why now
#1209 fixed the Activity tab to filter to real interactions (
types: ['task']) instead of rendering the database audit stream. That was correct — but it exposes an empty tab, because the demo dataset contains no interactions at all.Measured on a seeded instance:
Every row is an audit entry. The three writers that produce real interaction rows —
log_call,log_meeting,send_emailinsrc/actions/global.actions.tsandsrc/actions/contact.actions.ts— are action bodies, and nothing in the seed path calls them. So on a freshpnpm demo:reset, a rep opening any lead's 活动 / Activity tab sees暂无活动记录.Why it matters for this repo specifically
The charter is 「hotcrm 主要是展现平台能力」. An Activity tab that is honest and empty demonstrates less than one that is honest and populated: the timeline component, the interaction model, and the "what did we do with this lead" workflow are all real platform capabilities that the exemplar currently ships switched off in its own demo data.
This is the tab a salesperson opens before every follow-up call. Shipping it blank is the difference between a demo that shows a working CRM and one that shows an empty shell.
Scope
A handful of
sys_activityrows for the demo leads/accounts that already carry a narrative — enough that the tab reads like a CRM someone has used, not a fixture. Notes:crm_forecast's precedent is relevant:demo-bootstrap.flow.tsclaims owner-scoped seeded objects, and forecast_snapshot 与启动重播种的互动:每次 dev 重启后,当季出现一条无 owner 的幻影快照行与 owner 键控行并存 #702 ruled the current-quarter window has exactly one producer. Check whethersys_activityhas the same ownership/visibility constraints before assuming plain seed rows are enough.Provenance
Maintainer decision in session, verbatim (未译): 「加种子互动，顺带把 #1257 排了」 — taken after seeing the before/after in a browser: the tab went 活动 (3) → 活动 (0) on the same record once #1209 landed.
