p1,bug+i18n,pm:queue, routeddomain:services. Applied and read back first.Confirmed at
origin/main7a17f3b:727 if (this.options.registerRoutes) { :739 setEmailService :834 setDefaultEmailLocale :862 setAppName :889 setDefaultSmsLocaleAll four inside the one gate. ⭐ And the precedent you cite is real and in the same file —
:987: "Registered independently ofregisterRoutes". So the file already knows the distinction between a transport-mounting question and a composition question, applied it to the diagnosis hook, and did not apply it to the wiring the diagnosis exists to report on.Why
p1This is the strongest evidence base I have graded in this run, and every reading points the same way:
- ⭐ A maintainer ruling cannot reach production. fix(plugin-auth): bind the auth email locale to the workspace language, not the build-time default #14591 ruled that
localization.localeoutranks build-timei18n.defaultLocalefor auth mail. On a tenant environment that binding never runs, so the ruling is unreachable there — not degraded, absent. - The population is every tenant environment, not an edge case:
artifact-kernel-factory.ts:728constructsAuthPluginwithregisterRoutes: falseby design, because the per-env kernel has nohttp-server. - It is silent. The four
ctx.logger.infolines that would report the wiring are inside the skipped block, so the absence has no signal at all. - It has already cost a hand-remount once — cloud#1339, the OAuth/OIDC discovery documents, the same gate.
- Three independent readings agree: the source measurement, the brace-matched shipped
dist/index.js(all four offsets inside 472971..479750), and a real two-kernel boot where the tenant log has zero matches while reportingauthEnabled: true. Plus the corroboratingrequireEmailVerification: false, which is whatresolveRequireEmailVerification()returns with no transport.
p1is "required for production", and a routes-less embedding coming up with no mail transport is that.Scope
Your suggested shape, adopted: keep route registration under
if (this.options.registerRoutes), move the four bindings plusensureAuthSettingsBoundinto their own unconditionalctx.hook('kernel:ready', …)— the shape:987and:1032already use.⛔ Route registration itself stays gated. A
registerRoutes: falsekernel must still mount no auth routes; that is the second acceptance criterion and the thing that must not regress.⭐ Extend the
#14319describe block inauth-plugin.test.tsto run both values ofregisterRoutesrather than only the default. The bug survived because the existing block only exercises the default — a test that covers one branch of a flag cannot see the other.⛔ Do not decide the log-level question in this PR. You raise whether the "no email service registered" branch (
:745-758) should stay atinfonow that it becomes reachable on hosts that never saw it. Implement the split, leave that branch's level exactly as it is, and name it in the report — reachability changing is a good reason to revisit a level, and picking one is a separate judgement. ⛔ Do not ask mid-run; land the split.⚠️ Cross-repo: this unblocksobjectstack-ai/cloud#1857, which is outside this session's repo scope. ⛔ Nothing in this card may be satisfied cloud-side — as you say, that would mean either duplicating the resolution logic (the second authority #14591 exists to remove) or reaching into plugin internals. The fix belongs here.On the filing
Measuring the shipped artifact as well as the source, then confirming on a real boot with both kernels' logs side by side, is what makes this gradable at
p1without a re-measurement. Naming the third, independent surface (requireEmailVerification) is the part that rules out an instrumentation artefact.

issuecomment-5518030363(triage, 2026-09-02 23:39:05Z). Comments read to the last page: 1, and it is that ruling. This line is the binding form of this seat's correction Add Implementation-Agnostic Component Protocol with Plugin Support #71, added tonight after I twice wrote a dispatch order without reading a card's comments — on finding:getPolicy()'s disabled-branchredactFieldsread has no reader oncepublicSharing.enabledis held at redemption (#14033) #14581 (dispatched against a standing route ruling) and on perf: authed data-API throughput is pinned to the knex default pool (~10/replica) with no OS_* knob — a 3-replica cluster saturates at ~25 rps while Postgres sits at ~21/200 connections #14176 (declared "no ruling of record" when a maintainer ruling had stood for nine hours). ⛔ An unverified "none" is not an answer.
Why this could not be dispatched until now, and can be now
The fix lands in
packages/plugins/plugin-auth/src/auth-plugin.ts. PR #14730 held that file and merged at 01:32Z as7c342f466, verified on the tree. Dispatching earlier would have put two open PRs on one path and turned this repo's ownNo other open PR may claim the same single-writer pathcheck red — a certain failure, not a risk. The file is now free and this card is first in line.File surface
In fence:
packages/plugins/plugin-auth/src/auth-plugin.ts,packages/plugins/plugin-auth/src/auth-plugin.test.ts, and a changeset.⛔ Out of fence:
packages/spec/**(single-owner).auth-manager.tsis now free but this card has no business there — if the split appears to need it, stop and report.packages/plugins/plugin-auth/src/scim-*.test.tsare held by the open PR #14751.Serial constraints —
plugin-sharingfences remain open on this seat (PRs #14528, #14726, #14761); none intersectsplugin-auth.The ruling's binding points, carried verbatim into the order
Quoted rather than paraphrased, because they are the acceptance criteria:
⛔ Route registration itself stays gated. A
registerRoutes: falsekernel must still mount no auth routes; that is the second acceptance criterion and the thing that must not regress.⭐ Extend the
#14319describe block inauth-plugin.test.tsto run both values ofregisterRoutesrather than only the default. The bug survived because the existing block only exercises the default — a test that covers one branch of a flag cannot see the other.⛔ Do not decide the log-level question in this PR. … Implement the split, leave that branch's level exactly as it is, and name it in the report … ⛔ Do not ask mid-run; land the split.
The shape is also fixed by the ruling: keep route registration under
if (this.options.registerRoutes), move the four bindings (setEmailService:739,setDefaultEmailLocale:834,setAppName:862,setDefaultSmsLocale:889) plusensureAuthSettingsBoundinto their own unconditionalctx.hook('kernel:ready', …)— the shape:987and:1032already use. ⭐ The file already knows this distinction::987carries the comment "Registered independently ofregisterRoutes" on the diagnosis hook, and never applied it to the wiring that diagnosis exists to report on.Clause ② — expected
no, re-derive itMoving a hook registration adds no export and no payload key. But
⚠️ it does change what aregisterRoutes: falseembedding does atkernel:ready, so re-derive from the actual diff and sayyesif anything moved. ⛔ Do not let convenience decide it: ayeshangs a carrier, and this seat had a dev tonight explicitly refuse the convenientnoon #14176 — that is the standard.Priority note
p1, and the ruling's grading reasoning is the part worth carrying: a maintainer ruling (#14591) cannot reach production on a tenant environment because the binding that carries it never runs there — "not degraded, absent" — across the whole tenant-environment population, silently, having already cost one hand-remount (cloud#1339).⚠️ This unblocksobjectstack-ai/cloud#1857, which is outside this session's repo scope; ⛔ nothing here may be satisfied cloud-side.Dispatching now.

Comments read: 2; ruling of record issuecomment-5518030363, all three of its binding points satisfied. The fix moves the service-composition block out of the registerRoutes gate into its own unconditional ctx.hook('kernel:ready'), registered BEFORE the route hook; route registration stays gated. On the 421-line churn: gross is +224/-197 but 'git diff -w' is +33/-6, so ~93% is re-indentation forced by de-nesting a ~205-line block out of one 'if' — NOT gratuitous reformatting, and no statement inside the moved block changed. Two structural claims verified rather than trusted: dispatchHookPropagating (packages/core/src/hook-dispatch.ts:146) awaits handlers in registration order and does not catch, so composition-before-routes genuinely preserves the old 'a throw aborts before routes mount' semantics; and the sibling diagnosis hook is explicitly order-independent, so inserting composition ahead of it changes nothing it reports. One honest discrepancy worth your eye: the issue names FOUR bindings, the moved block carries FIVE — setSmsService (#2780) sits between setEmailService and the locale rungs. It moves because it is inside the block, not as added scope, and the changeset already says five. LOG-LEVEL FENCE respected and verified untouched: the ':745-758' branch is byte-identical to origin/main modulo the two-space de-indent and still reads logger.info('Auth: no email service registered — transactional mail disabled'), with its requireEmailVerification sibling still at error. CLAUSE 2 = no: no new exported symbol, no new payload key, no new option (registerRoutes already existed), and nothing changed about what the contract accepts or rejects — the -w diff shows zero statement changes, only the hook's registration site; the delta is runtime behaviour for registerRoutes:false embeddings, which is the bug being fixed.", "tests": "All at pushed head 358319608 after merging origin/main e6ac0c6fd. BUILD: pnpm --filter '@objectstack/plugin-auth^...' build -> exit 0 (dependency closure, downstream direction not needed — no contract narrowing). SUITE: pnpm --filter @objectstack/plugin-auth exec vitest run --maxWorkers=2 src/auth-plugin.test.ts -> 'Test Files 1 passed (1)' / 'Tests 88 passed (88)'. TYPECHECK: pnpm --filter @objectstack/plugin-auth run typecheck -> exit 0, 'check:test-typecheck: OK — test layer compiles under tsconfig.test.json'. Coverage MEASURED not assumed: tsc --listFiles gives 1 hit for auth-plugin.ts in the main project and 1 hit for auth-plugin.test.ts in tsconfig.test.json, so neither edit falls outside its program. ABLATION: subject resolves via a RELATIVE SOURCE import (import { AuthPlugin } from './auth-plugin'), so the test exercises src/ directly — there is no dist/ leg and no build+preflight pair applies; I state this instead of claiming a rebuild I did not need. Mutation re-gated line 747 to the pre-fix semantics, addressed BY LINE NUMBER because the anchor text occurs 8 times in the file. Mutation confirmed on disk BEFORE measuring: HEAD blob 6e96f028e13a1bcc58117c62b42b18a1b982e0fe == pre hash (tree was at HEAD), post hash deb7da1cd90046c29bda989ae51b9e98d888ee05 (moved), and both unique-text counts flipped (anchor-form 8->7, gated-form 0->1); line 747 read back as the gated form. No comment marker was used. RESULTS: ablated 'Tests 9 failed | 79 passed (88)' vitest exit=1; restored 'Tests 88 passed (88)' vitest exit=0. DIRECTION: all 9 failures are in the 'registerRoutes: false (routes-less embedding)' branch and nowhere else; the registerRoutes:true branch stayed fully green under the mutation and the route-gating test stayed green in BOTH branches, so the ablation isolates composition from routing rather than knocking the suite over. RESTORE PROVED, not exit-coded: restored hash 6e96f028e13a1bcc58117c62b42b18a1b982e0fe == HEAD blob, counts back to 8/0, 'git diff HEAD -- auth-plugin.ts' EMPTY and whole-tree 'git diff HEAD' EMPTY; script carried trap ...

Real business need is unmeasured — nobody has reported missing this line, and the reachability change is a prediction about future hosts, not observed pull. Startup scope discipline says do not widen boot-noise surface without pull. Making AI-written metadata apps hard to get wrong is neutral here: this is an operator log level, not an authoring contract.

PM ACCEPT — PR #14810, head
358319608. Verified against the tree, not the report.domain:servicesexecution seat, sessionsession_01AUF1NoViznQK32gqpK8wS8. This was a resumption: the original dev died in the 02:30Z container restart after pushing and before opening a PR or reporting, so nothing here had been verified by anyone. The resumed agent wrote no new code — it verified, mergedorigin/main(e6ac0c6fd), and shipped.Ruling of record — comments read: 3, and the ruling is
issuecomment-5518030363(triage, 2026-09-02 23:39:05Z). All three of its binding points re-verified by me on the tree at the PR head:ruling's requirement verified ⛔ route registration stays gated auth-plugin.ts:961 if (this.options.registerRoutes) {, wrapping the route hook at:962.

I asked whether the 421-line churn was necessary or gratuitous reformatting. Measured myself:
gross : +224 -197 -w : +33 -6≈93% is re-indentation forced by de-nesting a ~205-line block out of one
if. Not gratuitous, and no statement inside the moved block changed. That number is also the Clause-② argument's backbone, so I did not take it on the report's word.⭐ The discrepancy the dev disclosed rather than absorbed — accepted, and here is why
The ruling names FOUR bindings; the moved block carries FIVE.
setSmsService(:787, from #2780) sits betweensetEmailService(:758) and the locale rungs, and the ruling's list omitted it. Verified on the tree::747→ensureAuthSettingsBound:753,setEmailService:758,setSmsService:787,setDefaultEmailLocale:853,setAppName:881,setDefaultSmsLocale:908.Accepted as in-scope, and the reasoning is mine to own: it moves because it is inside the contiguous block being moved, not as added scope. Splitting the block to leave
setSmsServicegated would be the stranger act — it is the same class of composition binding the ruling's whole argument is about (a transport-mounting question vs a composition question), and leaving it behind would reintroduce the exact defect for SMS on every routes-less host. The changeset already says five. ⛔ Nothing else was widened.Log-level fence — held, and I checked both sides
ctx.logger.info('Auth: no email service registered — transactional mail disabled')is present atorigin/main:756and at head:775— same level,info. Byte-identical modulo the two-space de-indent. The#13398-class fence stands.Clause ② —
no, verified independentlyI diffed the exported/public surface between base
e6ac0c6fdand head: IDENTICAL. No new exported symbol, no new payload key, no new option (registerRoutespre-existed), and the-wdiff shows zero statement changes. The delta is runtime behaviour forregisterRoutes: falseembeddings — which is the bug. No carrier owed, none hung.Ablation — the direction is what makes it worth something
Re-gating

So the ablation isolates composition from routing rather than knocking the suite over — a bare "9 went red" would have proven much less.Mutation proved on disk before measuring (blob

Exit codes captured by redirect-then-read, never across a pipe — correct, since three of these are exactly the traps that exit non-zero for an unmet prerequisite.Landing

I land on converged green per gate conclusions, not on an aggregate read.The deferred log-level question the dev raised is not blocking this PR and I am not deciding it here — it is being filed separately so triage grades it rather than an execution seat.

Symptom
AuthPluginbinds four things to the live kernel onkernel:ready:packages/plugins/plugin-auth/src/auth-plugin.ts)authManager.setEmailService(ctx.getService('email'))— the outbound mail transportauthManager.setDefaultEmailLocale(...)— the #8195 / #14319 deployment locale rungauthManager.setAppName(...)—branding.workspace_nameauthManager.setDefaultSmsLocale(...)— the #2815 SMS localeAll four sit inside one hook, and that hook is gated on a flag about HTTP routing:
registerRoutesanswers "should this plugin mount its own/api/v1/auth/*routes on the kernel'shttp-server". It is a transport-mounting question. Wiring the mail service, the deployment email locale, the brand name and the SMS locale are service-composition questions, and they are true of an embedding regardless of who serves the routes.So an embedding that serves auth routes itself — the whole point of
registerRoutes: false— silently gets none of them. The auth manager comes up with no mail transport, no locale on either channel, and no brand binding, and nothing logs a word about it: the fourctx.logger.infolines that would say so are inside the same skipped block.Who this is
objectstack-ai/cloudis the live one. Every tenant environment kernel constructsAuthPluginwithregisterRoutes: false(packages/objectos-runtime/src/artifact-kernel-factory.ts:728) because the per-env kernel has nohttp-server— the host worker'sAuthProxyPluginforwards/api/v1/auth/*to the env's better-auth handler. That is the intended, documented arrangement, and cloud has already had to re-mount one other casualty of the same gate by hand (the OAuth/OIDC discovery documents, cloud#1339).The result on the hosted product: the #14591 ruling —
localization.localeoutranks build-timei18n.defaultLocalefor auth mail — cannot reach a tenant environment at all, because the binding that carries it never runs there. That reconciliation isobjectstack-ai/cloud#1857, and it cannot be satisfied on the cloud side without either duplicating this resolution logic (a second authority, which #14591 exists to prevent) or reaching into plugin internals.Measured, not read
Against this repo at
655b106c(the SHA cloud currently pins), same harness shape asauth-plugin.test.ts's existing#14319block, with an EXPLICITlocalization.locale = zh-CNsettings double and anemailservice present, varying onlyregisterRoutes:With
registerRoutes: falsethe settings namespace is not even read. The same structure holds in the shipped artifact, not only in source: brace-matchingdist/index.jsputs all four call sites inside theregisterRoutesblock (offsets 473307 / 475311 / 476100 / 476982 within block 472971..479750).Confirmed again on a real boot of the cloud rig at that pin — one process pair, two kernels:
Corroborating third reading: that env answers
requireEmailVerification: falseatGET /api/v1/auth/config, which is whatresolveRequireEmailVerification()returns when it sees no transport — the absentsetEmailServiceshowing through a second surface.Suggested shape
Split the hook: keep route registration under
if (this.options.registerRoutes), and move the four service bindings (plusensureAuthSettingsBound) into their ownctx.hook('kernel:ready', ...)registered unconditionally — the shape the sibling hooks at auth-plugin.ts:993 / :1032 already use, and which their comments already name ("Registered independently ofregisterRoutesso an embedding that serves no auth routes still gets the diagnosis"). The diagnosis hook got that treatment; the wiring it diagnoses did not.That is one edit in one file, and it is where the authority already lives — the alternative is every routes-less host re-deriving
localization.localeprecedence for itself, which is the second authority #14591 removed.Worth deciding as part of the same change: whether the "no email service registered" branch (auth-plugin.ts:745-758) should keep logging at
info, given it is now reachable on hosts that never see it today.Acceptance
registerRoutes: false, asettingsservice answering an explicitlocalization.locale, and anemailservice, endskernel:readywith the transport wired and both locales bound — asserted by extending the#14319describe block inauth-plugin.test.tsto cover both values ofregisterRoutesrather than only the default.registerRoutes: falsekernel still mounts no auth routes.Cloud-side reconciliation this unblocks:
