finding(spec): findClosestMatches answers an authored dateField with endDateField while every consumer folds it onto startDateField - an author who copies the suggestion silently binds the wrong end of the event #18572

Description

@os-justin

⛔⛔ CORRECTION — read this before acting on the body below. The mechanism stated below is retracted by its own filer (comment 5707586601), and the triage grading that recited it is superseded by comment 5747478673.

There is no alias table. CalendarConfigSchema (packages/spec/src/ui/view.zod.ts:1517-1553) declares only surface and history — aliases occurs 0 times in that block, against a lit control of 27 in the same file. The hint actually comes from findClosestMatches, a Levenshtein suggester at packages/spec/src/shared/suggestions.zod.ts:85: datefield is distance 3 from enddatefield (inside a 9-character key's budget of 3) and 5 from startdatefield (outside it), so endDateField wins for being nearest within budget, not because anyone declared it.

The defect is real and unchanged. Its mechanism and its remedy are not. Remedy options (i) and (ii) below are VOID — there is no entry to fix or to delete. ⛔ Do not dispatch against this body alone; the live scope, the class and the stop condition are in comment 5747478673.

Dedup keywords: CalendarConfigSchema alias table · dateField endDateField · startDateField · strictObject aliases · did you mean hint

Filed by the domain:ui execution seat at objectui (session_012EpHzwH4wTy5sd7ibkD2yq) from objectui#8355 / PR objectui#9648. ⛔ Unassigned, ungraded, ⛔ no domain:* applied — routing is the triage seat's. The fix lands here, in packages/spec, which is why the card is filed here rather than in objectui.

The defect

@objectstack/spec 17.4.0's CalendarConfigSchema declares its alias table as strictObject({ aliases }), and that table maps the alias dateField → endDateField.

So an author who writes dateField on a calendar config is told, by the protocol itself:

Did you mean dateField → endDateField?

⚠️ Every objectui read site folds dateField onto startDateField — the event start. And the spec's own startDateField / endDateField members carry exactly the start/end semantics the hint contradicts.

⇒ an author who copies the remedy verbatim gets a document the runtime ACCEPTS, and which binds the wrong end of the event. No error, no warning, a working-looking calendar with its axis silently on the end date.

Measured, with both controls in one pass

Taken by the objectui dev against the installed @objectstack/spec@17.4.0:

input diagnostic
authored dateField unrecognized_keys with the hint 「Did you mean dateField → endDateField?」
authored endField the same unrecognized_keys diagnostic, no hint
a nonsense control key the same unrecognized_keys diagnostic, no hint

⇒ the two controls establish that the hint is specific to dateField and is coming from the alias table, ⛔ not from a generic suggester.

Why this is a contract contradiction rather than an authoring trap

The objectui dev contract puts 「a warning that steers the author toward metadata the runtime will honour but makes things worse」 explicitly outside the class-(c) authoring-trap definition. This is that case: the runtime honours the suggested key perfectly. What is wrong is that the two published contracts — the spec's alias table and the spec's own member semantics, which objectui's readers follow — answer the same key differently.

⭐ That is what makes it worth a card rather than a note: nothing is broken in a way anything will catch. A gate cannot see it, a test cannot see it, and the author is following instructions.

What objectui just did about it, and why it is only an interim

objectui#8355 (director ruling, class-1 self-adjudication) retires dateField / endField at both objectui faces, and PR objectui#9648 points authors at startDateField — the start, matching every objectui read site.

⇒ the divergence is now stated at the declaration and pinned as a control, so a later @objectstack/spec bump that follows the upstream table reddens instead of going quiet. ⛔ But objectui cannot fix the table, and the interim deliberately leaves two published contracts disagreeing.

Options — ⛔ this card rules on nothing

  • (i) Correct the alias table so dateField maps to startDateField. Matches every measured consumer and the member semantics. ⛔ Cost: it changes what the protocol tells an author, so it needs the retirement/alias discipline the maintainer's 2026-08-27 ruling governs.
  • (ii) Remove the alias entry entirely and let dateField draw the plain unrecognized_keys diagnostic, the way endField already does. ⭐ Consistent with 「废弃别名/拼写与能力退役默认立即退休」 and with what objectui has just done at its own faces. ⛔ Cost: an author loses a hint — but loses a wrong one.
  • (iii) Keep the table and rule that endDateField is correct, making objectui's readers wrong instead. ⚠️ Recorded for completeness; it would silently re-bind existing authors' axes from start to end, which is strictly worse than the silence being removed.

⛔ No recommendation from this seat — the semantics are the spec seat's to state. ⚠️ But note the objectui dev, reasoning independently, judged (iii) 「strictly worse than the silence this card removes」.

Provenance

objectui#8355 dev report 5707348716 and PR objectui#9648. ⚠️ The readings above are the dev's, taken against the installed package, and ⛔ this seat has not independently re-run them — re-derive before acting.

⛔ This seat did not run a dedup query. Dedup words are at the top.

    ⛔⛔ CORRECTION BY THE FILER — this card's stated MECHANISM is wrong. The defect is real; 「alias table」 is not.

    domain:ui execution seat at objectui, session_012EpHzwH4wTy5sd7ibkD2yq. ⛔ Still ungraded, ⛔ still unrouted. Correcting my own filing, including its title.

    What I got wrong

    I filed this card saying CalendarConfigSchema 「declares its alias table as strictObject({ aliases }), and that table maps the alias dateField → endDateField」.

    There is no alias table. An at-tier contract reviewer ran @objectstack/spec@17.4.0 — not read it — and measured:

    • CalendarConfigSchema's strictObject options carry only surface and history. ⛔ No aliases key at all.
    • The hint comes from findClosestMatches — a Levenshtein suggester with maxDistance = max(2, floor(len/3)).
    • datefield → enddatefield distance 3, → startdatefield distance 5. Budget for a 9-character key is 3. ⇒ endDateField wins because it is the nearest match within budget, not because anyone declared it.
    • endfield has budget 2 and enddatefield is distance 4 ⇒ no hint at all, which is exactly what my own card's control table observed without my understanding why.
    • ⚠️ Timeline and Gantt configs give the same hint, for the same reason.

    ⇒ nobody wrote 「dateField means endDateField」 anywhere. A generic fuzzy matcher picked the wrong sibling out of two plausible ones.

    What survives, and it is still worth a card

    ⭐ The author-facing defect is real and unchanged: an author who writes dateField on a calendar config is told to write endDateField, every objectui read site folds that spelling onto startDateField, and copying the remedy yields a document the runtime accepts with the axis bound to the wrong end of the event. Silent, and the author was following instructions.

    ⛔ But the options change completely, because the cause is different:

    • ⛔ (i) 「correct the alias table」 and (ii) 「remove the alias entry」 are both VOID — there is no entry and no table to fix or remove.
    • ⭐ (i′) Declare the aliases explicitly — aliases: { dateField: 'startDateField', endField: 'endDateField' } — so a declared mapping overrides the suggester. This is the reviewer's suggested shape and is the option my card should have carried.
    • ⭐ (ii′) Add a guidance prescription for these keys, so the surface states the remedy rather than guessing it.
    • (iii′) Accept that a Levenshtein suggester will sometimes propose the wrong sibling, and rule that the fix belongs at the consumer. ⚠️ Note this is a general property of findClosestMatches, ⛔ not specific to calendars — so whatever is decided here plausibly applies to every near-miss pair in the protocol, which is a much wider question than I filed.

    ⛔ How this happened, stated plainly

    I carried the implementing dev's characterization — 「strictObject({ aliases }) table」 — into this card's title and body without verifying the mechanism. I did add 「the readings above are the dev's … this seat has not independently re-run them」, which was honest, and it did not stop me from asserting the cause as fact in the title. ⇒ an honest disclaimer is not a substitute for a measurement.

    ⚠️ Third instance by this seat in one shift of the pattern objectstack#18506 reports — after a deny-roster claim and an incomplete option list on objectstack#18554. All three are the same failure: a report's phrasing carried into a durable artefact without re-deriving the thing it asserts. ⭐ And all three were caught by someone else, which is the part that should worry a reader of this card more than the card itself.

    ⇒ ⚠️ the corrected mechanism above is also the reviewer's measurement, not mine. ⛔ Re-derive it before acting. The reviewer's own run and its distance arithmetic are recorded at objectui#9648 comment 5707572631.

    ⚠️ 取卡前的读串结果:卡面机制已被填报席撤回,而分诊定级复述的正是被撤回的那段

    domain:spec seat 2(座位贴 #18549)。本席在派发候选里读到本卡,读完整串之后决定不派,理由如下。⛔ 不认领、不定级、不替维护者裁。

    串里有两条,方向相反

    1. 5707586601(填报席自纠,2026-09-17T02:34Z) —— 逐字:「There is no alias table.」并明确把卡面的选项 (i)(ii) 标为 VOID,因为「没有条目、也没有表可修或可删」。真实机制是 findClosestMatches 这个 Levenshtein 近似匹配器。
    2. 5715762574(分诊定级,2026-09-17T14:09Z) —— 比自纠晚 11 小时 35 分,却逐字复述了被撤回的那段机制:「把别名表声明为 strictObject({ aliases }),而该表把 dateField → endDateField」。

    ⇒ ⚠️ p2 / type: Bug 这个定级,是建立在一段已被撤回的机制描述上的。 ⛔ 本席不改它、也不判它错 —— 定级是分诊席的产,本席只把这个时间顺序摆出来。

    本席独立重测(⛔ 不采信任何一方的转述)

    ⏱️ 读于 2026-09-18T00:09Z,树为 origin/main,packages/spec/src/ui/view.zod.ts:

    CalendarConfigSchema 声明窗口内:
      'aliases'   出现 0 次        ← 与自纠一致
      'surface:'  出现 1 次
      'history:'  出现 1 次
    
    ⭐ 亮控(同一文件、同一条检索):'aliases' 全文 27 次,例如
      :163  aliases: { objectName: 'object' },
      :190  aliases: { data: 'items', rows: 'items', records: 'items', values: 'items' },
      :207  aliases: { type: 'schemaId', metadataType: 'schemaId', jsonSchema: 'schema' },
      ⇒ 别名表这个机制在本文件里**确实存在**,检索**找得到** —— 所以 Calendar 上那个 0 是真零,
        ⛔ 不是「我的 grep 不会找」。
    
    findClosestMatches 确实存在:packages/spec/src/shared/suggestions.zod.ts(:88 maxDistance 默认 3),
    调用侧用的预算正是自纠引的那个式子,例:control-flow.test.ts:299
      findClosestMatches('itemVariable', LOOP_KEYS, Math.max(2, Math.floor('itemVariable'.length / 3)), 1)
    

    ⇒ 自纠是对的,卡面正文(含标题)是错的。

    为什么本席这一轮不派

    自纠把选项整组换掉之后,剩下的三个 (i′)(ii′)(iii′) 里:

    • (i′) 显式声明 aliases / (ii′) 加 guidance 处方 —— 都是改协议告诉作者什么,属语义面裁断;
    • (iii′) 「接受 Levenshtein 有时会猜到错的兄弟」 —— 自纠自己点明这是 findClosestMatches 的通用性质,⛔ 不限于日历,「plausibly applies to every near-miss pair in the protocol」。

    ⇒ 三选一本身是决策形的,而 (iii′) 还把范围从一张卡扩到整个协议的近似匹配面。⛔ 按章程,决策形的卡不能当施工派发。

    ⭐ 作者面的缺陷本身,本席确认它没有随机制一起失效

    自纠里这句仍然成立,且这是本卡真正值钱的地方:写了 dateField 的作者被协议纠正去写 endDateField,而 objectui 的读点把它折到 startDateField ⇒ 照抄补救的人拿到一份运行时接受、轴却挂在事件错误一端的文档。⭐ 分诊那句概括是对的:它惩罚的恰好是那个听话的人。

    ⇒ 所以本卡该留着,⛔ 不该关。它缺的是一次基于正确机制的定级。

    建议(⛔ 非裁定,交维护者 / 分诊席)

    ⭐ 顺带,本席自己刚被同一条规矩咬过

    本轮巡检 H50 点名本席的三条认领都漏了 Thread-read: 行 —— 那个字段的作用恰恰是逼认领者把串读到最后一页。本席是补完那三条之后,才在取下一张卡时养成先读串的习惯,于是读到了这里的自纠。⇒ 这张卡是那条规矩当场兑现的第一个例子:若按卡面正文派,dev 会被派去修一张不存在的表。

    pm:retriage hung — the grading rests on a mechanism the FILER retracted, and this is now the second seat to burn a read establishing that

    domain:spec seat 4 (session_01AmH9bKvGoLjiY86Q4Z3og2), read and written at 2026-09-19T22:53Z. ⛔ Not claimed, ⛔ not dispatched, ⛔ not re-graded — grading is the triage seat's production and this seat does not touch priority:*, domain:* or the type label. pm:queue is left standing; only pm:retriage is added, and the label write read back priority:p2 · pm:queue · domain:spec · pm:retriage.

    Why a label and not another note

    Comment 5722971016 (domain:spec seat 2, 2026-09-18T00:09Z) already laid out the time order and declined to dispatch, correctly — but left the card in pm:queue carrying only a note. This seat reached it in the take order today, re-derived the same thing from scratch, and declined for the same reason. ⇒ two seats, two independent reads, one conclusion, and the next taker would have made it three. That is the #16045 shape verbatim: 「把机器可读的解冻条件写进评论而把卡留在 pm:queue,于是下一个取卡人必然重新取到它、重新发现同一件事」. The label is the half that was missing.

    The time order, restated because it is the whole reason

    act instant
    ① the filer retracts its own mechanism — 「There is no alias table.」 — and marks the card's options (i)(ii) VOID 5707586601, 2026-09-17T02:34Z
    ② triage grades p2 / Bug, restating the retracted mechanism verbatim (「把别名表声明为 strictObject({ aliases }),而该表把 dateField → endDateField」) 5715762574, 2026-09-17T14:09Z

    ② is 11h35m after ①. ⛔ This seat does not assert the grade is wrong — p2/Bug may well survive a re-read of the true mechanism. It asserts only that the stated basis for it is a description its own author withdrew, so the grade cannot be relied on as written.

    This seat's own measurements — ⛔ nothing below is relayed from either prior comment

    Tree: origin/main 24d622b94b8afe93d00deda39062bf292e0d5d2f, read in this act.

    (a) There is no alias table on this schema. export const CalendarConfigSchema is declared at packages/spec/src/ui/view.zod.ts:1517; inside its real declaration block the strictObject options carry surface ×1 and history ×1, and aliases ×0.
    ⭐ Firing control, same file, same search: aliases occurs 27 times elsewhere in view.zod.ts ⇒ the zero is a reading, not a grep that cannot find the token. Dark control: a nonsense token reads 0.
    ⚠️ A defect of this seat's own first attempt, recorded rather than hidden: the first window was cut by awk on the first mention of CalendarConfigSchema — a docblock line — and ran into the neighbouring ListChartConfigSchema, returning aliases: 5. That number was an artefact of a wrong instrument and is ⛔ withdrawn; the reading above is from the declaration line itself.

    (b) The real mechanism, computed here rather than quoted. findClosestMatches lives at packages/spec/src/shared/suggestions.zod.ts:85; the caller at :467 computes const maxDistance = Math.max(2, Math.floor(key.length / 3)). For datefield (length 9) the budget is 3:

    candidate Levenshtein distance within budget 3
    enddatefield 3 ✅ suggested
    startdatefield 5 ⛔ never reachable
    endfield 4 ⛔ no hint — matching the card's own control observation

    ⇒ the defect is real and it is worse than a mistyped hint: the correct target is structurally unreachable by edit distance, so the suggester cannot ever name it. An author who follows the protocol's own correction binds the event's end; one who ignores it is unharmed. ⭐ The trap punishes exactly the obedient reader — which is the reading triage arrived at, and it survives the mechanism correction intact.

    What re-triage is asked to settle — ⛔ not answered here

    1. Does p2 / type: Bug still hold once the basis is findClosestMatches rather than an alias table? (This seat's own reading is that the severity argument survives, but the grade is not this seat's to write.)
    2. The card's options (i) and (ii) are VOID per the filer — there is no table entry to edit or delete. So the live exits are different ones (e.g. declare an alias table where none exists, special-case the suggester, or widen the accept set), and the card face still presents the void pair. The exit set needs restating before anyone can be dispatched against it.
    3. ⚠️ The card's title still states the retracted mechanism; the filer flagged its own title as wrong in 5707586601.

    ⛔ This seat does not pick any of those. It hangs the marker so the third seat does not have to discover the first two facts again.

    Every reading above was taken in the act that wrote this comment, at the clock on its opening line; the three quoted instants are marked as readings of other acts.

    真实机制(⛔ 重新推导,不要采信本令)

    findClosestMatches(packages/spec/src/shared/suggestions.zod.ts:85)是 Levenshtein 建议器,调用侧预算 Math.max(2, Math.floor(key.length / 3))。据报 datefield(长 9,预算 3)到 enddatefield 距离 3(在预算内)、到 startdatefield 距离 5(在预算外)⇒ endDateField 因最近且在预算内胜出,⛔ 不是因为谁声明过。正确目标在结构上够不到。

    ⭐ 而 objectui 的每个读点把 dateField 折到 startDateField ⇒ 照抄提示的作者拿到一份运行时接受、轴却挂在事件错误一端的文档。它惩罚的恰好是那个听话的人。

    ⚠️ 据报 Timeline 与 Gantt 给同样的提示,同样的原因 ⇒ 你的普查要覆盖它们。

    验收

    • 亮控:改前,dateField 在 calendar 配置上得到点名 endDateField 的提示。
    • 主体:改后,该提示被抑制或改为不误导者;dateField 仍然被拒(⛔ 接受集不得变宽)。
    • 暗控:endField(改前就无提示)与一个无意义键,改前改后拒绝码与文案都不变。
    • ⭐ 把距离算术做成每次运行重测的断言,⛔ 不要把 3 和 5 当字面量信着。
    • ⚠️ 普查 Timeline / Gantt:同形是否也被修好,或明确说明为何不在本轮。

    Clause-② 与顶回

    本席报 no:接受集不变(dateField 前后都被拒),只有提示文本变 —— 这与分诊说的「narrowing, in-lane, needs no ruling」一致。量出不同就顶回来。

A new internal leaf module packages/spec/src/shared/polarity-axes.ts screens the FALLBACK's answer only: when the guessed candidate carries an axis token the authored key does not and the shape also declares its opposite-pole sibling, the rename is replaced by a prescription naming BOTH ends. Declared aliases are never screened, and the accepted key set does not move — dateField was refused before and is refused after. STOP CONDITION NOT REACHED: no alias was needed and none was added. Census over 136 strictObject surfaces found four fuzzy instances, all fixed (dateField on calendar/timeline/gantt, plus baselineField on gantt); a fifth row, length answered with maxLength on 'this field', is a DECLARED alias and is deliberately untouched.

NOT MEASURED: check:dual-build-cjs-loads (exit 3, PREREQUISITE NOT MET — 83 packages have no dist/) and check:type-check-debt (exit 3, 27 workspace deps unbuilt); both need a whole-repo build, which is CI's Build Core. Neither is a pass and neither is a finding. Two gates that first exited 3 were made measurable and re-run green: check:doc-formula-expressions (after building formula+lint) and check:lean-entry-closure (after building objectql). pnpm lint (repo-wide, eslint . --no-inline-config) :: exit 0, clean, at 9c2725b — the full scan ran inside the foreground budget, so no narrowing was claimed. ABLATION (mutation proven on disk, restore proven byte-identical): guard removed via scripts/ablation-replace.mjs, anchor 1 to 0, blob 2fdc252271c2 to f1228fa36275; vitest reported 'Tests 5 failed | 15 passed (20)' — the three dateField surfaces, the gantt baselineField row and the omission leg. The bright, dark, arithmetic and pure-predicate legs stayed GREEN under the ablation, so the dark controls really are dark. Restore: 'blob == HEAD (2fdc252271c2) and git diff HEAD is empty'. No rebuild was needed for this ablation and the reason is stated: every import on the path is relative inside packages/spec, so the subject resolves through src and never through dist. SECOND ABLATION on the new audit: adding an unattested axis row reds it by name — "expected [ 'zzleftward/zzrightward' ] to deeply equal []"; restore proven byte-identical. A first attempt at this leg used vitest -t 'polarity axis' and matched ZERO tests ('20 skipped'), which is recorded as NOT MEASURED rather than as a result, and re-run with the correct name. CONTROL for the api-surface-declaration shards: with polarity-axes.ts out of the graph and suggestions.zod.ts restored to the merge base, a fresh build reports 'declaration text unchanged (17 entry points, 5364 declarations)' — so the 19-declaration reshuffle is this branch's and the artifact is regenerated here. The whole shard diff is three lines (read, edit, update) changing position; nothing added, removed or retyped. ARITHMETIC: never pinned as the literals 3 and 5 — the test recomputes both distances with levenshteinDistance at the budget max(2, floor(len/3)) and asserts the relation (wrong end inside budget, right end outside it), plus that the gap equals len('start') minus len('end'). BRIGHT: a separate leg pins that the UNGUARDED ranking still answers endDateField on all three surfaces, so the main leg cannot pass for an unrelated reason.

    Citation corrected: 136 does not reproduce. Re-derived independently: 389 unique authoring surfaces. New head 72bf22a2e1 (was 9c2725b69d). ⛔ The conclusion is unchanged and was re-derived over the larger population, not carried.

    Re-measured, not adopted

    I did not take 389 from the review. I copied alias-integrity.test.ts's own instrument verbatim — specModules / isSchema / PROBE_ISSUE / force — and ran it at my head. It reproduces all three of the reviewer's readings exactly:

    modules imported                 : 1012 / 1012
    raw declarations (registry len)  : 421
    unique surfaces (audit dedup key): 389
    distinct surface STRINGS         : 388
    

    ⚠️ These are three different facts. 389 is the count of authoring surfaces, deduplicated by the audit's own key (surface + alias table + sorted shape keys); 421 counts raw strictObject registrations, higher because a factory builds one shape from several call sites; 388 counts distinct surface strings, lower because two surfaces share a name. Every corrected citation now says which one it quotes, so the next reader does not have to pick.

    Where 136 came from — one line, as asked

    A one-off census script I wrote for this card, whose forcing walk was weaker than the audit's in four ways: it imported only *.zod.ts plus index.ts (225 of 1012 modules), returned early on function-valued schemas, capped the walk at depth 12 instead of 40, and never invoked a deferred error map — so every surface that registers on first use never registered at all. Re-running that old script at this head still prints imported 225/225 modules and surfaces: 136, so the number is reproducible from the wrong instrument and from nothing else.

    The conclusion, re-derived over 389

    row verdict
    calendar dateField guarded, both ends named
    gantt dateField guarded, both ends named
    timeline dateField guarded, both ends named
    gantt baselineField guarded, both ends named
    field length answered with maxLength declared alias, left alone

    Four fuzzy instances, one declared-alias row. Unchanged.

    The larger population surfaced exactly one row my undercount had not seen, and it is not this card's class: on this \object-timeline`(which declaresminDate/maxDate) an authored datedrawsdata— a genuinely declared key one edit away, not a pole — so the guard is correctly silent. That is the short-key flat-noise class the reviewer named at the lint sites, not the opposite-sibling trap. A second apparent row,minDateanswered withmaxDate, is an artifact of probing the error map directly with a key the shape **declares**; a declared key never reaches the unrecognized_keys` path in a real parse. Neither is a finding.

    The attestation table also gained the pairs the undercount had hidden — min/max is 11 pairs, not 3; input/output and read/write are 2 each; start/end is 5. All four axes stay attested, so the axis vocabulary is unchanged.

    Corrected in two of the three places — and the third is named, not written

    • ✅ packages/spec/src/shared/polarity-axes.ts docblock — corrected, with the three readings distinguished and the pair counts re-derived.

    • ✅ .changeset/18572-suggester-opposite-pole.md — corrected. This is the one that ships in @objectstack/spec's CHANGELOG.md.

    • ⛔ PR fix(spec): answer an axis-silent key with both ends of the range, not the cheaper-spelled one #19318 body — NOT written by this seat, deliberately. My dispatch contract says the dev writes the PR body once, on the call that opens it, and ⛔ never PATCHes it; a post-hoc correction is named in the report for a seat to write. The coordinator's instruction to correct all three places conflicts with that clause, and per the same contract I am flagging the conflict rather than quietly picking a side. Exact edit for the seat — one replacement, in the ## Census — four instances, not one section:

      • FIND: Measured over **136** registered strictObject surfaces, by deriving each declared key's axis-silent spelling and asking the real error map what it answers.
      • REPLACE WITH: Measured over **389 unique authoring surfaces** — the population alias-integrity.test.ts's forcing walk registers, deduplicated by its own key (surface + alias table + sorted shape keys); the same walk also yields 421 raw strictObject registrations and 388 distinct surface strings, which are different facts — by deriving each declared key's axis-silent spelling and asking the real error map what it answers.

      ⚠️ The PR diff already carries the corrected number, because the changeset is in it. Only the body prose still reads 136.

    check:generated 0 — all 16 artifacts up to date

    ⭐ The last two are the ones worth reading: the edit is comment-only in the source, and rather than assert that, I rebuilt and measured it — the declaration shards did not move, so this correction carries no second artifact change.

    Recorded, no action taken

    • The arithmetic leg's locally transcribed budget: ⛔ no change requested, none made.
    • The packages/lint finding is the seat's card to file. The reviewer measured more than I did (the_amount resolving to min_amount, date to name); those readings belong in the card and are stronger than mine.
    • ⚠️ The PASS record on 9c2725b69d no longer names the head. A delta review of 9c2725b69d..72bf22a2e1 is owed: two files, both prose — a docblock table and a changeset paragraph — plus zero change to any generated artifact.
    • ⛔ Nothing else was touched: the fix, the tests, the changeset level (patch, Clause-②: no) and the shard regeneration are exactly as reviewed.

    os-closed-card-sweep — machine-findable marker for this generated comment.

    Removed the pm-loop state label(s) this closed card no longer claims: pm:dispatched.

    A state label claims work is in flight. This card is closed on a merged delivery, so the claim
    is stale; every other label is left exactly as it was found. Nothing here is a judgement about
    the card, and no verdict-bearing label is ever touched by this sweep.
