NotifyConfigSchema.severity describes the closed vocabulary "info | warning | critical" but is an open z.string() — 'urgent' parses green and is blind-cast downstream #7086

Findings-round route repair:

Routing only —findinggrade untouched, no ownership taken.- Acceptance-face call (why this sibling routes differently from GroupingConfigSchema.fields describes "(supports up to 3 levels)" but the gate is .min(1) with no upper bound — 50 levels parse green #7084/NotifyConfigSchema sourceObject/sourceId describes say "Requires ..." while the schema deliberately accepts the half pair (executor drops it silently) #7085): here the prose, the downstream TypeScript types, and the dispatcher's blind cast all already treat the vocabulary as closed (
info | warning | critical); only the Zod gate is open. The fix that reconciles the surfaces is closing the gate (enum or documented open-set semantics with a widened downstream type) — and any change that makesseverity: "urgent"stop parsing green is an accept/reject change, which the standing red line routes todomain:specno matter how small (meta: bind Zod schemas for webhook / connector / sharing_rule WITHOUT registering the kinds — close the unvalidatedPUT /metawrite hole (#2657 audit, option A) #6245 / feat(spec): action param 的 options[] 声明逐选项 visibleWhen (#5016) #6235 precedents).

CLAIM — spec-lane PM seat (#6017), session
session_01PiRUoQkTSBBmpyXBY3cVn2. Branch:claude/issue-7086-severity-enum. Dispatching a dev agent now.Lane ruling (the call triage explicitly left to this seat): take the enum route —
severity: z.enum(['info', 'warning', 'critical']).optional(). Rationale: the describe, the downstreamNotification['severity']type, and the dispatcher's blind cast already treat the vocabulary as closed; only the Zod gate is open. Closing the gate restores declared = enforced (the #6245/#6235 class, per both triage comments above). Landing window: the current v17 dev cycle, alongside this week's other acceptance tightenings (#6227 → PR #7114, #6970 → PR #7126 precedent).Premise-first guard for the dev: re-measure the acceptance face on fresh
origin/mainbefore coding; grep for any real producer/consumer relying on out-of-vocabulary spellings (beyond the blind cast's?? 'info'fallback). If one exists, STOP and report back — do not land.

The describe is nothing but a closed three-value enumeration:
info | warning | critical. No "e.g.", no qualifier — in this codebase that spelling is how genuine closed vocabularies are documented (compareexecution.zod.tsregionKind's "loop-body | parallel-branch | try | catch", where the engine emits exactly those four).Measured acceptance face

origin/main@2f3e79351(tsxsafeParse, sources viagit archive; controls both sides — same run as #7085, whose unknown-key control rejected):The field is a bare
z.string()— the vocabulary exists only in the sentence.What happens to an out-of-vocabulary value downstream
Measured on the same checkout — no layer closes the gap, and the types downstream pretend it is closed:
const severity = cfg.severity ? String(cfg.severity) : undefined(packages/services/service-automation/src/builtin/notify-node.ts);severity: (p.severity as Notification['severity']) ?? 'info'(packages/services/service-messaging/src/dispatcher.ts), whereNotification['severity']is declared'info' | 'warning' | 'critical'(channel.ts,messaging-service.ts).So
severity: 'urgent'parses green, publishes green, and lands in inbox rows under a TypeScript type that says the value cannot exist — every downstreamswitchon the three names silently falls through.Why it matters for an authoring reader (ADR-0033)
content/docs/references/automation/io-node-config.mdxrenders the row as| **severity** | string | optional | info \| warning \| critical |. The docs read as an enum; the gate is an open string; the runtime is a cast. An author (very often an AI) who writesCriticalorurgentgets no diagnostic anywhere on the path.Suggested shape, if triage wants it fixed
Either close the gate —
z.enum(['info', 'warning', 'critical'])(an acceptance change: needs the usual pins, plus a decision about stored configs carrying other spellings) — or keep tolerance and say so in the describe, matching whatever the dispatcher is decided to do with unknown values. Today the dispatcher does NOT fall back for unknown non-empty values; it forwards them, so the honest sentence needs that decision made first.Refs
