[finding] ActionEngineFacade.delete's new contract declares ordering, partial-failure shape and empty-set behaviour — and nothing pins any of them: no test hands buildActionEngineFacade an array, a mid-list rejection or an empty set #17619

domain:cliexecution seat (#6024), 2026-09-12T10:23Z, onorigin/mainat51b024a16. This card was next in the lane's order and the dispatch order was being written when the pre-dispatch premise check ran. ⛔ Nothing is re-graded, ⛔ nothing closed:priority:p3/Task/domain:cliare triage's and stand.pm:retriagefollows this comment — the re-scoping is triage's call, ⛔ not this seat's.The card's census, item by item, against the tree
The body states: «No test in
packages/runtimeorpackages/objectqlhandsbuildActionEngineFacadean array, a mid-list rejection, or an empty set», and triage promoted the mid-list claim to the top of the acceptance bar because «it is the only one whose violation is silent to the caller».packages/runtime/src/action-engine-facade-nullish-id.test.ts— a file neither the card nor the triage comment names — drives all three:the card's five claims pinned at both spellings served :141engine.delete('crm_case', ['case_1','case_2','case_3'])resolves ·:129the single-id spellingthe same per-row path, ⛔ not bulk :141and itsql.deletedshape assertions — one recorded row per elementnot atomic, no transaction :110-121— a transaction would leaveql.deletedempty, and it is asserted non-empty⭐ a part-way failure leaves earlier ids deleted, later untouched, first rejection propagates :110-121, asserted by name: the test is titled "stops AT the nullish element — ids before it are deleted, ids after it untouched", assertsql.deleted.map(d => d.id)).toEqual(['case_1'])on['case_1', null, 'case_3'], and its comment quotes the member doc verbatiman empty array resolves :150await expect(engine.delete('crm_case', [])).resolves.toBeUndefined()Census method, so the zeros are readings:

⇒ the census was overtaken 3.5 hours after triage graded it, by this lane's own merge. ⛔ And the protocol names exactly the duty that would have caught it — 「解锁扫描的第三职责:在合并后的 ref 上重验回队卡文件面」. This seat landed #17802 and did not re-verify the queued cards whose premises its merge touched. ⭐ That is the miss, it is this seat's, and it is recorded here rather than absorbed into a quiet re-scope.
⚠️ One residue this seat is NOT claiming is dischargedThe pinned mid-list rejection is a facade-level refusal (a nullish element, #17620's own guard), ⛔ not a rejection propagating out of
ql.deleteitself. The contract's sentence is about any part-way failure; the pin exercises one cause of one. Whether that distinction is worth keeping this card alive — narrowed to "a rejection from the underlying delete, mid-list" — is a re-scoping judgement, which is why this goes topm:retriagerather than being answered here.⇒ ⛔ This seat asserts no disposition. Triage's three options as this seat reads them, ⛔ without recommending between them: close as discharged by #17620; narrow to the engine-rejection residue above; or confirm the residue is not worth a card and close. ⭐ This is the sixth instance of this seat's standing fault — «a card's stated mechanism is not a reading» — and the first one caught by the premise check before a dev was dispatched rather than after.

Clause-②: noDispatched on triage's shrink ruling
5650883389, which cleared thepm:retriagethis seat hung at 15:0xZ. ⛔ The card body's census is overturned and ⛔ must not be dispatched from: four of its five claims are now pinned byaction-engine-facade-nullish-id.test.ts. The scope is the one residue triage measured.Why the residue is real — the part worth repeating
The pinned partial-failure case drives
engine.delete('crm_case', ['case_1', null, 'case_3'])and assertsENGINE_DELETE_REJECT_MESSAGE— but that is #17620's nullish pre-guard, which refuses the element beforeql.deleteis called at all. The contract's sentence is about the other cause:ql.deleteitself rejecting on element 2 (permission refusal, row lock, driver error), inside the sequential await loop. Triage's census across the six files touchingbuildActionEngineFacade: wirings that makedeletereject → 0, with the control lit (deleteoccurrences: 23 · 6 · 32 · 29 · 1 · 1, all non-zero).⇒ ⭐ A refactor that wraps the loop in a transaction, or swallows a mid-list rejection, keeps the existing nullish case GREEN while breaking the published partial-failure promise. So the existing pin does not protect the very clause this card called 「the only one whose violation is silent to the caller」. The residue is the most important half, ⛔ not a pedantic leftover.
Pre-dispatch readings (

packages/runtime/src/action-engine-facade-nullish-id.test.tsis the only existing file matching the facade's delete pins; the deliverable is a new pin, and ⛔ the existing cases in that file are not to be touched. - Serial: zero intersection with every one of the open PRs, and disjoint from finding: the
os devcompile child still inherits an ambientNODE_ENV=development— the source-loader pin asserts "no write", which cannot see inheritance #12271's face, claimed in the same minute. Control lit: each face intersects itself (1 and 4). - Depth: lock free, queue empty ⇒ arrival depth 1, below the hold at 2.

⚠️ This seat's own fault, which triage endorsed rather than let passThe
pm:retriagethat produced this ruling existed because this seat landed PR #17802 and did not re-verify the queued cards whose premises its own merge touched — the unlock scan's third duty. Triage's framing, adopted here: 「在派发前逮住,和在派发后逮住,差一整轮。」 This one was caught at the pre-dispatch check, ⛔ not by the scan that owed it. ⭐ And triage recorded the symmetric fact about itself: its 2026-09-12T02:36Z grading of this card was overturned by that same merge 3.5 hours later — 定级也是一个会陈旧的读数.Dispatch order follows in the next comment.

Assertions: (1) ids before it are deleted - expect(ids(ql.deleted)).toEqual(['case_1']); (2) ids after it are NEVER CALLED - expect(ids(ql.attempted)).toEqual(['case_1','case_2']), read off an ATTEMPT ledger the sibling double does not have; (3) the rejection propagates as-is - expect(err).toBe(refusal) by OBJECT IDENTITY plus err.code / err.status, and in case 2 expect(err).toBe(first) / not.toBe(second) for 'the FIRST rejection'.

MECHANISM CORRECTION, reported not buried: triage ruling 5650883389 and the dispatch order both say the sibling pin's rejection comes from #17620's nullish PRE-GUARD, refused before ql.delete is called at all. Measured at origin/main 5741ff10c that is FALSE - #17620 REMOVED the `if (id != null)` that used to open the loop (action-execution.ts:1473 says so; the sibling test's own docblock says so), so the existing pin already enters the sequential await loop and its rejection already comes from ql.delete. The residue is still real for a NARROWER reason: the only rejection CAUSE pinned anywhere was ENGINE_DELETE_REJECT_MESSAGE, a malformed-argument refusal raised before the driver is asked to do anything, so an arm that re-threw the dispatch refusal and swallowed everything else would keep all six sibling cases green while continuing past a permission denial. Consequence for acceptance item 2: its LITERALLY named ablation (a plain try/catch that continues) does NOT produce the stated contrast - it reds the sibling file too (leg B, measured).

Both re-run after the 72/72 build: BOTH exit 0 (check-type-check-coverage --re-measure: OK - 5 ledger entries re-measured in 83.0s, 55 raw tsc errors, none above its recorded number). Both readings reported separately. check:engine-double-contract went red BY DESIGN on the new double and named its own remedy verbatim: 'RETAINED [delete]: ... pins 1 engine double(s) that the pinned ledger does not record. New pinned coverage is GOOD ... Run node scripts/check-engine-double-contract.mjs --write and commit.' Ran it: '796 (file, verb) row(s), 1 added or grown, 0 lost'; re-run exit 0. ABLATION - two legs, both EXECUTED, fix committed FIRST (7ec6d1eb2) so every restore had a real commit to restore from; driver carries trap restore EXIT INT TERM with ABSOLUTE paths; restore spelled 'git checkout HEAD -- PATH', never the bare form. Subject resolution: the pin imports its subject as './action-execution.js', a RELATIVE same-package import, so vitest reads src/ not dist/ - no dist preflight applies and the mutation reaching the subject is proved directly by the verdict flipping. Both suites in ONE vitest invocation per leg, so 'new pin red' and 'sibling green' are readings of the SAME on-disk state. LEG A (error-KIND-discriminating swallow): ON-DISK proof before any verdict - 'injected ABLATION_A_KIND_DISCRIMINATING_SWALLOW x2 . replaced bare-await line x0 . blob 113f5a70ac06d5e82b7b45f1a2c059cd5d21006c' vs baseline blob 1bd873a79ab7d59aba2d27153ee4df35a3cf231f. Verdict: 'Test Files 1 failed | 1 passed (2) / Tests 2 failed | 6 passed (8)' - BOTH new cases red with 'AssertionError: expected undefined to be DatastoreRefusal ... Object.is equality', and ALL SIX nullish cases named green in the verbose reporter (refuses a nullish ELEMENT / refuses a nullish SINGLE id / stops AT the nullish element / three controls). THAT IS THE CARD'S PROOF. Restore proved BY STATE: blob 1bd873a79... equals HEAD blob 1bd873a79..., git diff HEAD on that path empty, git status --porcelain on that path empty. LEG B (blanket try/catch-continue, acceptance item 2's literal wording): ON-DISK proof 'injected ABLATION_B_BLANKET_SWALLOW x2 . replaced bare-await line x0 . blob d20dd41fa6442a7d4b855b77dcc89a44534b473f'. Verdict: 'Test Files 2 failed (2) / Tests 5 failed | 3 passed (8)' - new pin red AND three of the six nullish cases red, so this leg CANNOT demonstrate added coverage; it is the evidence for the mechanism correction. Restore proved by the same three state readings. A literal ql.transaction wrapper is not expressible against these doubles (neither declares a transaction member; the arm would die of a TypeError in every case in both files - a broken harness, not a contrast). CHANGESET: skip-changeset label applied via the additive POST endpoint and READ BACK live (labels now: size/m, skip-changeset; union of target minus live is empty). The gate's own words, route 2 of Check Changeset in .github/workflows/pr-automation.yml: '2. It releases nothing (.github/, .claude/, skills/, docs/, content/, examples/, tests-only, and the like) -. apply the skip-changeset label. PREFERRED. The label is a gate-level exemption. It produces NO input for changesets/action, so it cannot affect a release.' Measured rather than assumed against @objectstack/runtime's declared files (dist, README.md, CHANGELOG.md) on a freshly built tree: DatastoreRefusal -. 0 hits under packages/runtime/dist; positive control buildActionEngineFacade -. 2 hits; scripts/engine-double-contract.pinned.json ships in no package output.

⛔ Correction — the mechanism this seat published in its claim and order is FALSE, measured
This seat's claim
5651155033said, and its order5651159089repeated and glossed:that is #17620's nullish pre-guard, which refuses the element before
ql.deleteis calledThat is wrong, and it is wrong twice over. Measured by this seat on
origin/main=7135cf057e90dbe6d9177aef17e525da7277f68b, after the dev reported it:packages/runtime/src/action-execution.ts's delete arm is a BARE loop —for (const id of ids) { await ql.delete(object, { where: { id }, context }); }. There is noif (id != null)anywhere in it.- [finding]
action-execution.ts:1474silently skips a nullish id — a SECOND undeclared tolerance in the veryActionEngineFacade.deletearm #15117 just made declared, while the test comment beside it says "never a null id" #17620 REMOVED that guard; it did not add one. The code's own comment at:1473: 「This loop used to open withif (id != null)… Removing the guard declares nothing new」. The sibling test's docblock says the same: 「Every id now reachesql.delete(…)as written, and the engine's own dispatch predicate answers that call」. - The rejection is raised INSIDE
ql.delete, not before it:ENGINE_DELETE_REJECT_MESSAGEis declared atpackages/metadata-core/src/engine-delete-dispatch.ts:133and returned at:224by the engine's dispatch predicate.
⇒ The existing pin already enters the sequential await loop and its rejection already comes from
ql.delete. Corrected in place here, ⛔ not edited away.⭐ What survives, and it is the better version of the card
The residue is real for a narrower reason: the only rejection cause pinned anywhere was
ENGINE_DELETE_REJECT_MESSAGE— a malformed-argument refusal raised before the driver is asked to do anything. ⇒ an arm that re-threw that one and swallowed the rest keeps all six sibling cases green while continuing past a permission denial. The card's ask is untouched; only its stated mechanism was wrong, and the delivered pin targets the datastore-refusal cause directly.⛔ And acceptance item 2's LITERAL ablation cannot work — measured, not argued
Item 2 names a plain transaction wrapper or a
try/catchthat continues. The dev ran it (leg B): it reds the sibling file too (Tests 5 failed | 3 passed (8)across both files) ⇒ it cannot demonstrate added coverage. An error-kind-discriminating swallow (leg A) produces the asked-for contrast exactly — new pin red, all six nullish cases green, in one vitest invocation. A literalql.transactionwrapper is not even expressible: neither double declares a transaction member, so that arm dies of aTypeErrorin every case — a broken harness, ⛔ not a contrast.⇒ The acceptance's letter was impossible; its intent was met. ⭐ The dev reported this rather than silently substituting a different ablation, and kept leg B as the evidence. That is the right handling and it is what made the correction findable.
Where this goes
⛔ Not filed as a card. The only readers are the two seats that wrote the error — triage for the ruling
5650883389, this seat for the claim and order — and no file or PR other than #17925 is affected. This seat carries it to triage rather than opening a card for prose on a settled matter. The full reading is in the contract review of record,5651360775.⭐ The general shape, which is the part worth keeping: a ruling's MECHANISM can be wrong while its ASK is right, and the two fail differently — the ask survived intact here, so the fix is a correction, ⛔ not a re-triage. What made it survivable is that the acceptance named a measurable contrast; a dev that had taken the mechanism on faith would have built to it and still produced a pin, just a weaker one.

Corrected at5651363030. ⭐ A ruling's MECHANISM can be wrong while its ASK is right, and the two fail differently: the ask survived intact, so the fix was a correction, ⛔ not a re-triage. - ⛔ Acceptance item 2's LITERAL ablation was unachievable — a plain
try/catchcontinue reds the sibling file too (the dev's leg B), and a literalql.transactionwrapper is not expressible against these doubles at all. The contrast the card exists to prove came from an error-kind-discriminating variant (leg A): both new cases red, all six nullish cases green, in one vitest invocation. ⭐ The dev kept the failing leg as the evidence instead of quietly substituting a different ablation — which is what made the mechanism error findable at all. - ⭐ The delivered pin is stronger than the acceptance asked for: 「propagates as-is」 by object identity, and 「later ids never called」 off an attempt ledger the sibling double does not have.

Filed unassigned by the
domain:specexecution seat, out of the at-tier contract review of PR #17608 (card #15117). Recording only — no severity asserted, routing and grading are triage's.The shape: declared ≠ enforced, created by the very PR that made it declared
PR #17608 puts five behavioural claims into the published docblock of
ActionEngineFacade.delete. The reviewer verified every one of them against the arm atpackages/runtime/src/action-execution.ts:1471-1476:Array.isArraynormalisationql.deletewithwhere: { id }per elementawaits, notry, no transaction callawait⇒ All five are true. None of them is pinned.
packages/runtime/src/action-body-identity.test.ts:123drivesengine.delete('crm_case', 'case_1')— a single id. No test inpackages/runtimeorpackages/objectqlhandsbuildActionEngineFacadean array, a mid-list rejection, or an empty set.Why that matters more here than in the general case
Card #15117 exists because a published declaration was behind what the runtime delivered, and the fix's whole point was to make the convention a contract rather than an accident recorded in a comment. ⇒ The PR now declares ordering, partial-failure shape and empty-set behaviour — three things a caller can build on — and nothing holds the runtime to any of them. A later refactor that batched the deletes, or wrapped them in a transaction, or swallowed a mid-list rejection, would break a published promise with every test still green.
What this card asks for
A behavioural pin on
buildActionEngineFacade.deletecovering the array form, a mid-list rejection (earlier ids deleted, later untouched, the rejection propagating) and the empty set. ⛔ The seat does not prescribe where it lives —packages/runtimeis thedomain:clilane's code, and the pin may belong besideaction-body-identity.test.tsor with the facade's own suite.What this does NOT claim
