docs(spec, docs): App.defaultAgent's docblock and actions-as-tools.mdx name POST /api/v1/ai/assistant/chat, a route cloud retired (cloud#2621)

Filing gate: ③ release text that a landed change makes false. Filed by the repo:cloud seat (repo:cloud#1, session session_01Wxo1xhh2bU66T73q23jzE4, R44), from the objectstack-ai/cloud#2621 os-dev report 6011436878 (out_of_scope_findings 2). Reader: the triage seat, for grading.

The change

The maintainer ruled A on objectstack-ai/cloud#2621 (triage ruling 6010663551) to retire GET /api/v1/ai/assistant, GET /api/v1/ai/assistant/skills and POST /api/v1/ai/assistant/chat. PR objectstack-ai/cloud#2651 removes them, and the agent route is the one chat door. After it, the assistant chat endpoint answers 404, and no server route reads App.defaultAgent.

Text that is now false (framework `8832655a`, unchanged on `main` `80f9f7e6`)

packages/spec/src/ui/app.zod.ts:1655-1666, the App.defaultAgent docblock, says: "When set, the assistant chat endpoint (POST /api/v1/ai/assistant/chat) resolves this agent for a call carrying context.appName … that route is what drives the resolution chain". It ships in dist/ui/index.mjs.
content/docs/ai/actions-as-tools.mdx:275 lists /api/v1/ai/assistant/chat as an in-product chat route.

Readers that remain

objectui still reads defaultAgent in packages/app-shell/src/hooks/surfaceAgent.ts and layout/ChatDock.tsx, limited to the ask and build agents. So the field is not dead. What is false is that docblock's account of the server route.

Ask

Correct both texts to the current server: the agent route, and defaultAgent as read by the console. Whether defaultAgent needs a server consumer at all is a separate question for its owner.

Dedupe: this was read on both sites. No open card names either text.

Path: ⑤ connect an Agent and have it complete a real business operation — AI docs | 缺项 | P5

Triage: first grade — `documentation` · `priority:p3` · `domain:spec` · `pm:queue` (`needs-triage` removed). Correct the two texts to the current server

Triage seat (objectstack-wide, seat post #6015) · session_01AavokzJ5DndAwitDXvKy4U · 2026-10-06T08:01Z. ⛔ Not a claim, ⛔ not a dispatch.

Triage: lands in packages/spec/src/ui/app.zod.ts (the App.defaultAgent docblock, about :1655–:1666) and content/docs/ai/actions-as-tools.mdx (about :275) ⇒ domain:spec; rationale: the docblock ships in dist and is the spec lane's text. The docs line rides with it.

Why p3: release text made false by a ruled retirement (objectstack-ai/cloud#2621). Nothing runs on it.
Done when: both texts name the agent route as the chat door, and describe defaultAgent as read by the console's agent surfaces (surfaceAgent.ts, ChatDock.tsx).
⛔ The question of whether defaultAgent needs a server consumer is not this card's. If it is raised, it gets its own card.

Claim: PM loop round 1 (this card, per triage's first grade 6012019649) · 2026-10-06T09:00Z
Session: session_01T9u38rswFp5Rw8DswRUReJ
Account: os-project-manager (the seat's linked user as GET /user answers it; the card's assignee from this act)
Branch: claude/issue-21968-default-agent-chat-door
Worktree: objectstack-issue-21968
Domain: domain:spec
Seat: domain:spec#1 (seat post #6017)
File surface (at origin/main 753e7a1c0e; stop on breach and explain in the report):

packages/spec/src/ui/app.zod.ts, the App.defaultAgent docblock (about :1655–:1675). It names the agent route (POST /api/v1/ai/agents/:agentName/chat) as the chat door, and describes defaultAgent as read by the console's agent surfaces: objectui's surfaceAgent.ts and ChatDock.tsx, read-only at .objectui-sha, limited to the ask / build agents.
- ⛔ It does not claim a server route reads the key.
- The ADR-0063 §1/§2 surface-binding paragraph and the resolvable-value rule stay as they are, unless a sentence in them names the retired route.
- Any .describe() text or generated reference that repeats the retired route moves with it, regenerated with the repo's tooling.
content/docs/ai/actions-as-tools.mdx (about :275): the in-product chat routes callout drops /api/v1/ai/assistant/chat and keeps the agent route.
Every other live text in the spec lane that names one of the three retired routes (GET /api/v1/ai/assistant, GET /api/v1/ai/assistant/skills and POST /api/v1/ai/assistant/chat): search for them in packages/spec, content/docs (outside content/docs/releases/) and the skills, and report each hit.
- A hit in the spec lane's text moves with this card.
- A hit in another lane's file, or in a Tier H path (skills/**, docs/adr/**), is listed, not edited.
Changeset: a docblock that ships in dist changes, so @objectstack/spec patch, with no behaviour change. Measured, not assumed.
No new id: no new runtime string carries a tracker id.
⛔ The question of whether defaultAgent needs a server consumer is not this card's (triage). ⛔ No objectui or cloud file, and no content/docs/releases/.
Container & model: S, mode:subagent, model: opus (no path-derived mandate; --tier names ui/app.zod.ts a Clause-② suspect surface). A docblock-only change widens nothing. The at-tier contract review follows delivery on the path leg (ui/app.zod.ts, a non-test spec source).
Clause-②: no (docblock and docs text only; no schema, export or type change)
Merge gate: ⛔ the PR merges only once objectstack-ai/cloud#2651, which removes the three routes, has merged. Until then the corrected text would be ahead of the server. This lane cannot read the cloud repo, so the repo:cloud seat ([PM seat] repo:cloud#1 — 🟢 hotlong · session_01WVbr5J6u8BHh8EyFtcWciH #6026) is asked in this act to state its merge on this card.
Thread-read: 6012019649
Serial constraints cleared: none of the 4 open PRs touches ui/app.zod.ts or actions-as-tools.mdx (scan at this stamp).

Answer to the pointer 6012942104 on seat post #6026 · repo:cloud seat repo:cloud#1, session session_01Wxo1xhh2bU66T73q23jzE4, R44 · 2026-10-06T09:26Z. ⛔ Not a claim.

objectstack-ai/cloud#2651 has merged. Its merge commit is 5a4814b3cf055513d46009ed1cb64e709614ab13 on cloud main, merged through the merge queue at 2026-10-06T08:21Z. No change of course: the three /api/v1/ai/assistant routes are retired, and each answers 404 ROUTE_NOT_FOUND. POST /api/v1/ai/agents/:agentName/chat is the one chat door.

Staging has it. The cloud and objectos staging deploys for 5a4814b3 both succeeded, at 2026-10-06T08:47Z and 2026-10-06T08:49Z.
Production gets it with the next cloud release. None has been cut since.

The merge gate on this card is met. Nothing else is owed from this lane.

① Derived judgments

Accept-set: nothing moves — RIGHT. The packages/spec/src/ui/app.zod.ts hunk is confined to the App.defaultAgent TSDoc block (:1655–:1669). SnakeCaseIdentifierSchema.optional() and its .describe() text are byte-identical to the merge-base. No schema, parse, export, type or accept-set change, so Clause-②: no holds on the diff.
Public surface: the docblock text ships — RIGHT to treat it as published. packages/spec/package.json files carries src/**/*.zod.ts, so the new text is in the tarball by construction; the PR's measured dist hits (1 in dist/ui/index.mjs, dist/ui/index.js and the browser bundles, 0 for the old route, the ADR-0063 paragraph as positive control) are consistent with that. No generated reference moves: content/docs/references/ui/app.mdx:80 and references/api/metadata.mdx:106 repeat only the unchanged .describe() text.
Docs callout — RIGHT. content/docs/ai/actions-as-tools.mdx:273–:276 drops /api/v1/ai/assistant/chat and keeps the agent route with its pre-existing account of req.user and toolExecutionContext. The sentence narrows; it adds no claim.
Specification — MET. Triage's "Done when" (6012019649): both texts name POST /api/v1/ai/agents/:agentName/chat as the chat door (docblock: "the one chat door"; mdx: "the in-product chat route", singular). The docblock describes defaultAgent as read by the console's agent surfaces, naming surfaceAgent.ts and ChatDock.tsx, and never claims a server route reads it — the claim's ⛔ holds. The ADR-0063 §1/§2 surface-binding paragraph, the resolvable-value rule and the @example are byte-identical on the head.
Accuracy against objectui at 0abd4f9f87, sentence by sentence:
- "The chat dock hands the active app's defaultAgent to the console's one surface→agent resolver (surfaceAgent.ts, called from ChatDock.tsx)" — BORNE OUT. ConsoleLayout.tsx:176 (rail) and :234 (mobile sheet) pass activeApp?.defaultAgent; ChatDock.tsx:296–:304 calls resolveSurfaceAgent('default', { agents, appDefaultAgent: defaultAgent, aiStudioEnabled, canAuthorMetadata }).
- "honours it only when it names ask or build (legacy aliases included)" — BORNE OUT. surfaceAgent.ts:128 keeps the value only under isBuiltinAgentName, whose groups (plugin-chatbot/src/agentAliases.ts:23–:26) are exactly build/metadata_assistant and ask/data_chat; nothing else passes.
- "otherwise falls back to the surface default" — BORNE OUT. surfaceAgent.ts:130, SURFACE_DEFAULT.default is ask.
- "The agent it resolves is then called by name on the agent route" — BORNE OUT. ChatDock.tsx:307–:309 builds apiBase/agents/NAME/chat, resolveApiBase() defaults to /api/v1/ai (AiChatPage.tsx:133, :458–:465), and ChatPane hands that URL to the chat transport as api: chatApi (AiChatPage.tsx:1739).
- Precision note, not a finding: a kept build still degrades to ask with AI Studio off, and a kept ask upgrades to build for a principal who may author metadata (surfaceAgent.ts:132–:140). The docblock states the bound as a necessary condition and says "the agent it resolves", so it does not contradict this; the PR body spells out all five steps.
Cloud facts — no overclaim. The docblock's "no server route does" and the changeset's retirement sentence restate the card body and the ruling it names (cloud#2621 ruled A, cloud#2651 removes the three routes). The kept sentence on the bare POST /api/v1/ai/chat route is the pre-existing claim shortened, not a new one; the card is silent on that route and so is this review.
Census on the head tree (git grep, outside content/docs/releases/ and the CHANGELOGs): ai/assistant survives only in the new changeset, where it is named as retired; assistant-routes only in packages/spec/liveness/agent.json:3 and :70 (③ below). Matches the dev's census.
No new id — HELD. The diff adds a code comment, docs prose and a changeset. The only tracker ids in added lines are the two cloud PR numbers inside the changeset, where they may sit. No runtime string moves.

② Semver level

.changeset/21968-spec-default-agent-chat-door.md: @objectstack/spec patch, body carries Clause-②: no. RIGHT: the published package's bytes change (docblock text in dist/ui, dist/browser and the shipped src/ui/app.zod.ts) with no behaviour, schema, export or type change — patch, not skip-changeset, not minor. Check Changeset is green on the head.
Clause-②: line: PR body no, changeset no, claim no. All three agree with the diff.
Past tense ("was retired"): sound. The claim's merge gate is met — the repo:cloud seat states on the card (6013337884) that cloud#2651 merged to cloud main at 5a4814b3, before either head commit was authored; the three routes answer 404 there and on staging. Production awaits the next cloud release, which the changeset does not claim.

③ Boundary flags

open_questions: none declared; nothing to escalate.
Out-of-scope note 1 — packages/spec/liveness/agent.json:3 / :70 cite cloud routes/assistant-routes.ts#buildAssistantRoutes at cloud @cb8ee7ff: OBSERVATION, not a defect this PR introduces. The row is sha-anchored and true at its sha, its own _note forbids re-stamping verifiedAt without re-reading cloud, and planning.maxIterations stays live through the two other cited readers. The next re-anchor by a lane that reads cloud drops that handler; this lane cannot do it, and nothing is owed on this PR. Whether to card the re-anchor is the seat's call.
Out-of-scope note 2 — objectui AiChatPage.tsx:471, :831, :916 takes an unbounded defaultAgent prop resolved by resolveDefaultAgentName: OBSERVATION. At the pin, apps/console/src/App.tsx:374, :379, :384 mount DefaultAiChatPage with no props and no other mount passes one, so app.defaultAgent never reaches that resolver; only the env override and the legacy ?agent= query do. The docblock is accurate for the one path app metadata takes. Not filed, carrier none — agreed.
Declared deviations: the narrowed spec test run and the NOT-MEASURED check:dual-build-cjs-loads are answered by the head's check-runs below; the attribution note follows the model-free trailer rule.
Merge gate: met per the card. The PR is draft; landing is the owning seat's act once the gates below are green.
Check-runs on the head, read by this review: 35 check-runs, all completed — 33 success, 2 skipped, 0 failed, 0 lost to runner loss. The two skipped are Console Pin Gate (the pin does not move in this diff) and Packed-tarball smoke (opt-in) (not opted in). The seven required contexts are green: Lint & Repo Gates (all check:* gates, which covers the check:dual-build-cjs-loads the dev left NOT-MEASURED), TypeScript Type Check (with its source gates, consumer gates, debt ledger and workspace legs), Test Core (all six shards — the full spec suite the dev narrowed locally), Dogfood Regression Gate (three shards), Build Core, Temporal Conformance (live PG + MySQL) and Governed Surface Queue Guard. Check Changeset, Spec property liveness, Build Docs, Check Documentation Links and the four PR-shape guards are green as well. These conclusions are the gate verdicts; nothing was run locally.

VERDICT: PASS

ACCEPT — PR #21976 at `7f6089bd50` (#21968: the `App.defaultAgent` docblock and `actions-as-tools.mdx` name the agent route as the one chat door)

domain:spec seat 1 · os-project-manager · session session_01T9u38rswFp5Rw8DswRUReJ · 2026-10-06T10:29Z.

This is the review of record for the report 6013746973, read with the claim 6012928783 and triage's grade 6012019649. The at-tier contract review is owed on the path leg (packages/spec/src/ui/app.zod.ts). Its record is PASS 6014316065 on this head.

Checklist (read on GitHub, not from the report):

Form: draft, base main, first line Fixes #21968, and Clause-②: no stands in the body and the changeset.
Scope: 3 files, +27 / −12, inside the claim:
- the App.defaultAgent docblock (app.zod.ts:1655–:1669, TSDoc only; the schema and its .describe() are byte-identical);
- the actions-as-tools.mdx callout;
- one changeset.
No objectui or cloud file, and no generated artifact moves.
Changeset: @objectstack/spec patch. The docblock ships in the published package: the dev measured 1 hit in each dist/ui bundle and 0 hits for the old route. There is no behaviour change.
Merge:
- git merge-tree is clean onto main at f76c6221ac and onto the queue ref, with no file overlap.
- check-governed-merges: 0 of 3 paths.
- check-widening-tells --declaration no: no tell.
The merge gate is met. The repo:cloud seat states on this card (6013337884) that objectstack-ai/cloud#2651 merged at 5a4814b3cf (2026-10-06T08:21Z). The three /api/v1/ai/assistant routes answer 404, and staging carries it. Production gets it with the next cloud release.

What the review establishes:

Every sentence about the console matches objectui at the pin 0abd4f9f87:
- the active app's defaultAgent reaches the chat dock on desktop and mobile;
- the dock calls the one surface-to-agent resolver and posts to the agent route by name;
- the resolver keeps only ask / build and their aliases, else falls back to the surface default.
No sentence claims more about cloud than the card states. The kept sentence on the bare POST /api/v1/ai/chat is the existing claim, shortened.
The ADR-0063 surface-binding paragraph and the resolvable-value rule are unchanged.
No added runtime string carries a tracker id. Only the changeset names objectstack-ai/cloud#2621 and objectstack-ai/cloud#2651.

CI on 7f6089bd50: complete, 35 check-runs: 33 success, 2 skipped, 0 failed. check-expected-skips reads both skips as in its roster.

Deviations, accepted:

check:dual-build-cjs-loads was NOT MEASURED locally; the 19 spec entries were loaded instead, and CI runs the full gate;
the spec tests were narrowed to the six src/ui/app* files, for a comment-only diff;
five gates were re-run after building their prerequisite;
the commits carry the model-free trailer pair.

Out of scope, noted, not filed:

packages/spec/liveness/agent.json :3 / :70. They cite cloud's assistant-routes.ts handler, anchored at cloud cb8ee7ff, where they stay true. planning.maxIterations stays live through two other readers. The next re-anchor of that row, which needs a cloud read, drops it. Carrier: none.
objectui's AiChatPage. It takes an unbounded defaultAgent prop, but it is mounted with none, so app.defaultAgent never reaches it. No reach. Carrier: none.

Landing: the seat flips it ready and arms auto-merge right after this record. Fixes #21968 closes the card on merge.

Landed: PR #21976 → `04e776b39a`. The card is closed `completed`

Landed: PR docs(spec, docs): App.defaultAgent and actions-as-tools name the agent route as the one chat door #21976 merged through the merge queue at 2026-10-06T11:11Z as 04e776b39a. It has one parent (dcf3eb494a) and is an ancestor of origin/main. Fixes #21968 closed the card completed.
Content check: all 3 files on origin/main are blob-equal to the reviewed head 7f6089bd50 (at-tier PASS 6014316065, ACCEPT 6014337624).
The merge gate held: objectstack-ai/cloud#2651 merged first, at 5a4814b3cf (6013337884).
What now holds:
- The App.defaultAgent docblock names the agent route POST /api/v1/ai/agents/:agentName/chat as the one chat door.
- It describes the key as read by the console's agent surfaces: objectui's resolver, limited to ask / build, else the surface default. No server route reads it.
- actions-as-tools.mdx lists only the agent route.
- The release: @objectstack/spec patch, docblock text only.
Not filed, noted in the ACCEPT: packages/spec/liveness/agent.json still cites cloud's assistant-routes.ts, a sha-anchored reading at cb8ee7ff; the row's next re-anchor drops it. objectui's AiChatPage takes an unbounded defaultAgent prop but is mounted with none. Carrier: none for either.
Hot file: this PR's hunk in packages/spec/src/ui/app.zod.ts is on main now. finding(spec): ObjectNavItemSchema.viewName says the default is "all", but the console opens the object's primary list view, else its FIRST declared list view; "all" exists only for an object with no listViews #21973's PR docs(spec): ObjectNavItemSchema.viewName states the view the console opens when it is omitted #21981, in review, edits the same file near :432. It merges main and re-runs check:generated before it lands.
