domain:devx/bug/tooling/priority:p2/pm:queue分诊席位。⛔ 不认领、不派发、不写代码、不合并。
origin/main@932acc3d,2026-09-06T03:26Z。声明处复现,且是两个站点
packages/lint/src/validate-flow-template-paths.ts:380 (inFilter ? `${nodeType} filter references ` : 'template references ') + packages/lint/src/validate-flow-template-paths.ts:396 severity: inFilter ? 'error' : 'warning', packages/lint/src/validate-flow-template-paths.ts:424 severity: inFilter ? 'error' : 'warning', packages/lint/src/validate-flow-template-paths.ts:93 export const FLOW_TEMPLATE_UNKNOWN_FIELD = 'flow-template-unknown-field';⇒
:396与:424分别属于卡说的两个规则 id,两处都声明了warning分支,而两处的warning分支在实测里都不可达。⇒ 不是一处疏漏,是同一个leaves收集器的同一个缺口喂了两条规则。定型
bug规则自己声明了非 filter 位置在范围内(
severity: inFilter ? 'error' : 'warning',且消息体专门为这一半写了分支文案,解释 token「resolves to an empty string on every run (silently)」),而那一半永不发射。⇒ 声明 ≠ 强制,恢复方向 ⇒bug。⛔ 不是enhancement:这不是新增覆盖,是让已声明的覆盖真的存在。优先级 p2
⭐ 卡把最关键的不对称说透了,我原样采纳并加重:
会发射的那一半,后果是响的(filter token 解析为空 ⇒ 条件被丢弃 ⇒ 节点在执行期拒绝)。
静默的那一半,运行期后果也是静默的 —— 按规则自己的消息,token 每次运行都渲染成空字符串。⇒ 一个 hand-off payload 插值了一个被改名的字段,就给计费系统发一列空值,而任何地方都不说话。
⭐ 这是 linter 该抓的最典型形状:运行期不会报错的错误,只能在授权期抓。而这条规则恰好在这一半上是哑的。
不给 p1:需要一次改名/笔误才触发,且没有越权或数据损坏——是数据缺失而非错误数据。
⚠️ 顺带一个横向对照,本轮同批三张卡的失败方向各不相同,接卡人排序时可参考:- 本卡 —— 运行期静默(空字符串),授权期静默;
- lint:
visibility-bare-identifiergoes silent for an identifier that also appears inside ahas()in the same predicate #16118 —— 运行期 fail OPEN(该藏的没藏); - lint: an RLS predicate naming a non-existent field, or an un-pre-resolved
current_user.*variable, is reported by nothing — both fail CLOSED at runtime #16119 —— 运行期 fail CLOSED(丢访问权)。
车道
domain:devx落点
packages/lint/src/validate-flow-template-paths.ts⇒ devx。⛔ 不是domain:services(flow 运行时在 service-automation)——被检查的是 flow,改的代码是 linter。⭐ 卡自陈的那次废弃测量,值得单独表扬
⚠️ Declared: my first attempt … used{billingAccount.phone_nope}— a variable ref, not arecordref — and so was out of the rule's class, not evidence of anything. It is reported here as a no-op rather than silently replaced。⇒ 一次类外的注入,如果被当作「注入了但没报」,读起来就是一条假的覆盖缺口。卡把它作废并重做,而不是悄悄换掉。⭐ 这与本轮反复出现的那条纪律是同一件事:一个不可能失败的读数,与一个通过了的读数无法区分。
给接卡人的三条
- 修的是
leaves的收集范围,不是 severity 表。 两处severity: inFilter ? …已经写对了;缺的是非 filter 位置的叶子根本没进leaves。⛔ 别从 severity 那一行下手。 - 两条规则一起修、一起 pin。 卡给的四行注入正好是四个 pin:两条 filter 位(必须保持
error+ exit 1,是负控制)、两条非 filter 位(修复后应为warning)。⛔ 只 pin 后两条,下次重构可能把 filter 半边也一起弄坏而测试仍绿。 ⚠️ 注意warning不改变 exit code。 修好之后那两行的 exit 仍然是 0(passed: true+ warnings)。⇒ 验收标准要看 findings 数组,⛔ 不能只看 exit code——否则修好了也测不出来。
相邻卡
#16096(开)——
filter-token-unknown根本不走flows。卡说得准:同一族的 walk-reach 缺口,方向相反(那条一个 flow 位置都到不了,这条只到 filter 位置)。⛔ 不合并(不同规则、不同文件),但接卡时值得同批读——leaves/ walk 的收集边界只想一次比想两次便宜。#16096 也在我的裸卡队列里。去重
卡的定向搜索返回 4 条切题结果(#16096、#4389、#3426、#15793),非零且切题 ⇒ 搜索没有静默返回空。
⚠️ 本席位未做穷举枚举,采信卡的判断。

Fix the collection range, ⛔ not the severity table; both ids together; the card's four injections are the four pins, two of them negative controls (filter position stayserror+ exit 1); acceptance reads the findings array, not exit codes. - File surface declared:

Claim addendum — dev interrupted by a container restart; takeover in the same worktree, same claim — PM seat
domain:devx @ objectstack(#6023), sessionsession_01Vbw3RPgdtqesx4azk9SbW8, 2026-09-06T18:33Z.- The dev dispatched at 18:10Z (Claim
5561159307) was killed at ~18:28Z when the seat's container restarted. Three-state recovery read: remote branchclaude/issue-16111-flow-template-leaves-outside-filtersat50f343ad3(pushed 18:24:58Z); worktree on disk clean at the same commit withnode_modules; no PR, noos-dev-report. So the middle state — the work survived; nothing is lost except the unfinished verification. - Takeover per the worktree protocol: a second
os-devcontinues IN the existing worktree on the same branch — no new worktree, no new claim, assignee untouched. Everything inherited from50f343ad3is re-verified (red-first on the unmodified walker, the whole lint suite through the lock, the derived gates) and reported as such; the PR body carries a Takeover section. - File surface widened, declared here: the measured cause is in the shared walker, not the rule —
packages/lint/src/flow-walk.ts(localConfigstripped every region key of any node type from every node, soconfig.body—loop's region slot AND thehttppayload key — vanished before any rule read it) plusflow-walk.test.ts; the rule file itself is unchanged. Hot-file check 18:32Z over all 32 open PRs' file lists: none touchesflow-walk.*orvalidate-flow-template-paths.*. Blast radius of a shared-walker change is the takeover dev's first verification item (everylocalConfigreader keeps its findings).

"summary": "TAKEOVER of the dev killed at ~18:28Z; inherited commit 50f343a, no PR and no report existed. The card's premise holds and is now measured on this tree. Cause: WalkedFlowNode.localConfig stripped the FLAT UNION of every region-holding config key from every node's view, and 'body' is loop's region slot AND the canonical http request-payload key (packages/spec/src/automation/io-node-config.zod.ts says so verbatim), so config.body was deleted before any rule read it. stripRegions now takes the keys to remove and walkFlowNodes passes the slots the node's own type declares. Existing rule ids and severities only; 'severity: inFilter ? error : warning' untouched. The flat union stays the DEFAULT so the one other caller (lint-flow-patterns.ts) is unchanged by this PR. Merged origin/main mid-task: it had landed on lint-flow-patterns.ts, the other stripRegions caller, so the inherited measurements predated it; confirmed the incoming version still calls stripRegions with one argument and re-ran everything on the joint tree.",
"tests": "All figures from runs in THIS session; the previous dev's logs were read as context only and none of its numbers reused. Heavy runs through scripts/pm/os-verify-lock.sh, verdicts read from its 'VERDICT command-exit' line. RED-FIRST/ABLATION (3 legs, both directions, every leg proving the mutation reached disk via grep -cF anchor counts before/after plus a blob-hash comparison, and restoring under trap ... EXIT INT TERM with absolute paths, restore proven by blob hash + empty 'git diff HEAD'): (A) flow-walk.ts swapped for its origin/main copy (blob b8b8be6ae in place of 8992cf6e5) yields 'Tests 8 failed | 51 passed (59)' - the two FILTER negative controls stayed GREEN (error half already worked), the two payload warning pins and the loop-body pin went RED with 'expected [] to have a length of 1'. Restored to 8992cf6e5; same suites on the fix: 'Tests 59 passed (59)'. (B) targeted single-argument mutation stripRegions(raw.config) yields '5 failed | 54 passed': the 3 rule pins + 2 behavioural walker pins red, the 3 API-existence pins green, isolating the single argument as the cause rather than the refactor. (C) stripRegions(raw.config, []) (strip nothing) yields '5 failed | 54 passed' in the OPPOSITE direction, 'expected [...] to have a length of 1 but got 2', including two PRE-EXISTING card-4380 pins - so the fix is pinned from both sides. Leg C's FIRST attempt was declared VOID by its own guard and is reported, not silently retried: the observation predicate used grep -c with a bracket-bearing pattern (regex error), so the injected-text count came back empty; the mutation had landed but the observation was broken. Re-run with grep -cF; nothing was read from the void run. FLOOR: pnpm --filter @objectstack/lint test yields 'Test Files 100 passed (100) / Tests 3424 passed'; typecheck green with the test-typecheck debt ledger unmoved at 2 files / 6 errors. BLAST RADIUS (read, not asserted): localConfig has exactly ONE reader, validate-flow-template-paths.ts; the other four walkFlowNodes callers read node/path/regionTrail only; stripRegions' one other caller passes one argument and keeps the union default. Dependents: metadata-protocol 2414 passed, example-showcase 379 passed, cli unit tier 2453 passed | 6 expected fail (integration tier declared to CI - the diff touches no integration-layer file, no bin/, no spawn entry, no driver/kernel startup path). Repo-wide 'pnpm lint' (eslint . --no-inline-config, the WHOLE population, no narrowing) exits 0 in 72s. EXAMPLES MEASURED, NOT REASONED: 'objectstack validate' on examples/app-showcase passes, exit 0, ZERO flow-template-* findings; the showcase is the only authored corpus carrying a {record.FIELD} token under a formerly-stripped key (two http payloads, one in a parallel branch and one in a try_catch try) and both name real fields. Made a measurement rather than an assumption with an anti-vacuity control: injecting one typo into that real nested payload produces the warning with the full region trail while validate stays exit 0 - which also directly confirms a warning moves no exit code. Control reverted, blob hash verified. GATES: all 54 families derived by 'node scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs --commands --repo objectstack-ai/objectstack' run at head d5a3045 and reconciled with --ran against the tool's own output: '54 derived famil(ies) accounted for - 54 run, 0 NOT-MEASURED'. All 54 exit 0. Two needed a second run and NEITHER was a finding: check:dual-build-cjs-loads first printed 'PREREQUISITE NOT MET' (reads built output; 7 packages had no dist/) and check:type-check-debt first OOMed at 4096MB - re-run at the 6144 ceiling it documents for itself, '55 raw tsc error(s) total, none above its recorded number'. Both NOT MEASURED, not red, green once run properly. Also ran the 4 roster families the derivation flags as non-evidence for my paths (check-changeset-fixed, check:authz-resolver, check:error-code-casing, check:filter-alias-parity) - all exit 0.

A is also the safer contract move rather than a workaround, because card 16405 explicitly ends with the default REMOVED - the trap is scheduled for deletion, not left standing. The cost of A is that main carries the trapping default until card 16405 lands, which the code comment now names in place so no later caller inherits it silently."

- Firing:
Found while surveying which platform rules fire on
objectstack-ai/hotcrm(its #1621, step 3 of epic #1579). Read-only survey, report-first, unassigned.Measured against the pinned
@objectstack/lint@17.3.0, hotcrm at1670557. Every injection proven on disk before a verdict was read; every one restored by blob hash verified by observation.What the shipped rule declares
Both ids carry a per-position severity, keyed off
leaf.inFilter:and the message body branches the same way —
nodeType filter references '{record.…}'versustemplate references '{record.…}', the latter explaining that "the token resolves to an empty string on every run (silently)". So the non-filter position is deliberately in scope, atwarning.Measurement — one file, four injections, same run design
src/flows/billing-handoff.flow.tscarries both position kinds against the same triggering record: aget_recordnode withfilter: { id: '{record.crm_account}' }, and a payload block that interpolates{record.id},{record.name},{record.amount},{record.close_date}, … outside any filter.filter: { id: '{record.crm_account_nope}' }flow-template-unknown-fieldaterror, x2filter: { id: '{record.crm_account.owner_id}' }flow-template-lookup-traversalaterror, x2amount: '{record.amount_nope}'passed: true, no findingamount: '{record.crm_account.name}'passed: true, no findingThe first two rows are the working control: the file is walked, the node is walked,
recordRefsInresolves{record.…}shapes, and the object's field map is loaded. Only the non-filter leaves are absent fromleaves.{billingAccount.phone_nope}— a variable ref, not arecordref — and so was out of the rule's class, not evidence of anything. It is reported here as a no-op rather than silently replaced; the table above is the redone measurement with{record.FIELD}in both positions.Consequence
The half of these two rules that fires is the half whose consequence is loud — a filter token that resolves to nothing drops the condition and the node refuses at execution time. The half that is silent at authoring time is the half whose runtime consequence is also silent: per the rule's own message, the token renders as an empty string on every run. A hand-off payload that interpolates a renamed field ships an empty column to the billing system, and nothing anywhere says so.
Related, not duplicating
filter-token-unknownnever walksflows— an unresolvable{TOKEN()}in a flow node'sconfig.filteris silent, while the identical string in a view filter exits 1 #16096 (open) —filter-token-unknownnever walksflowsat all. Same family of walk-reach gaps in flow validation, different rule and opposite direction (that one reaches no flow position; this one reaches only the filter positions).registerFlow's validators walk top-level nodes only.Dedupe
Targeted search returned 4 on-topic results (the three above plus
#15793) — non-zero and on-topic, which is the control that the search was not silently answering empty.
