command palette: navigation entries match on scattered letters, so "zzzz" returns Field Zoo and "ingest" returns Cascading Select

Filing gate ① — product defect with a named location and a reproduction. reach: ⌘K command palette in the showcase app: query zzzz returns Field Zoo and New Project (Wizard); ingest returns In-Progress Tasks, Cascading Select, Page Authoring, Styling (ADR-0065) besides the real hit; wayne returns Styling (ADR-0065) next to Wayne Enterprises.

Who acts on it: objectui triage → the console / records owner. ⛔ Not a claim. Found in a manual browser QA pass of the end-user console on 2026-10-07; filed one card per finding on the maintainer's word: 「你发现的问题全部提交 issue，然后继续测试前端」, and on the one-card-per-finding question 「覆盖规则，逐条立卡」.

What happens

Record results are accurate (华宁 → the account and three contacts; wayne → Wayne Enterprises). The Objects and Pages groups, though, match letters scattered across the whole label, so nonsense queries never reach "No results" and real queries pull in unrelated entries. Opening the palette also appends ?palette=1 to the page URL.

Expected

Navigation entries match on word prefixes or contiguous substrings (with a small typo tolerance at most); a query that matches nothing shows "No results".

Suggested direction (triage to rule)

Replace the subsequence matcher for nav entries with prefix/substring scoring and a minimum score; keep fuzzy matching for records server-side.

Environment

objectstack 879bd38c · examples/app-showcase booted with objectstack dev --ui --seed-admin on an isolated port and SQLite file · objectui 179f6fe9 (HEAD; the framework pin .objectui-sha is a58626c8) served by the console's Vite dev server, perf numbers from a vite build of the same commit · Chromium 141 at 1440×900 · signed in as the seeded platform admin admin@objectos.ai unless stated.

Duplicate check

Semantic issue search on objectstack-ai/objectui (open and closed), command palette fuzzy search loose matching nav entries no results: 2 hits (0 open, 2 closed).
Semantic issue search on objectstack-ai/objectui (open and closed), cmdk search matches unrelated pages by subsequence letters, typing gibberish still shows navigation results: 1 hits (0 open, 1 closed).
Related, not the same defect:
- console: ⌘K / full-page search scope silently truncated to the first 8 nav objects #3047 (closed) — same command-palette navigation search; truncation of the nav scope, not over-loose matching
- command palette: one typed query fires the identical GET /api/v1/search request three times #7393 (closed) — same command palette surface; request duplication, different defect
Positive control in the same run: related lists action id refusal notice shown to end users on objectstack-ai/objectui returned related lists: an action id the related object does not define draws a refusal notice above the list for whoever opens the record — an authoring fault shown to end users; scope it to authors/admins #11768: yes.

Dedupe words: command palette fuzzy match nav entries · nonsense query results · subsequence matching search

Triage: first grade, `bug` · `priority:p3` · `domain:ui` · `area:records` · `pm:queue`. Direction: navigation entries match on word prefixes or contiguous substrings

Triage seat (objectstack-wide, seat post objectstack-ai/objectstack#6015) · session_01AavokzJ5DndAwitDXvKy4U · 2026-10-07T17:36Z. ⛔ Not a claim, ⛔ not a dispatch.

Triage: lands in packages/app-shell/src/chrome/CommandPalette.tsx (the filter for the Objects and Pages groups) ⇒ domain:ui; rationale: a Studio or console surface in objectui. Filed from the browser QA pass of 2026-10-07 (objectstack 879bd38c, objectui 179f6fe9); paths re-read on objectui main 9990f9e122.

Why p3: nonsense queries still return entries; record results are right.
Direction:
- prefix or substring scoring, with a minimum score, for navigation entries
- record search is unchanged
- Not a defect: ?palette=1 is the palette's designed deep link (CommandPalette.tsx:76, ADR-0054 C1/C3)
Clause-②: no. Patch changeset in objectui.

File surface (on 4e7dd56):

packages/app-shell/src/chrome/CommandPalette.tsx: the matching of the navigation groups (Objects, Dashboards, Pages, Reports, Apps; their CommandItem values at about :283–:360), and how the palette hands its filter to cmdk;
at most one new module-private matcher beside it;
the tests beside them;
.changeset/11812-*.md.

⛔ Not on it: packages/components/src/ui/**, including ui/command.tsx's CommandDialog (objectui AGENTS.md #7: Shadcn-synced files, never edited); the record search and its server call; the ?palette=1 deep link (triage 6043346622: by design). Any file outside this list: the dev reports it before opening the PR (stop on breach; explain in the report)
Container & model: M, mode:subagent, model: opus (dispatch-gates --tier --repo objectstack-ai/objectui: no path-derived mandate; default tier)
Clause-②: no
Responsibility: objectui app-shell: the ⌘K palette's navigation groups go through cmdk's default subsequence scorer, so "zzzz" returns Field Zoo and a nonsense query never reaches "No results" | the platform path: the palette owns every navigation item's value and can match them itself (record hits already bypass the scorer by carrying the query in their value) | every console user who searches with ⌘K
Thread-read: 6043346622
Serial constraints cleared: none blocking. No in-flight claim in the lane names CommandPalette.tsx, and no open objectui PR touches it (read 2026-10-08T02:44Z). This seat's objectui#11839 (area:records, PR objectui#11867) holds packages/components/src/renderers/action/, which is disjoint.

Why Clause-②: no: matching inside an app-shell chrome component. A published export, prop or type member (for example a filter passthrough on CommandDialog), or a language-pack key, is a stop: the dev reports it before opening the PR, and the seat amends this line.

CommandPalette renders only the matches and a group only when something matched; no cmdk value changed, and since each rendered entry carries its terms in its value cmdk's scorer accepts every rendered entry, so CommandEmpty shows 'No results found.' exactly when nothing matched and the record search found nothing. Record hits untouched. Zone 2 item 1 CONFIRMED by measurement (cmdk 1.1.1 commandScore gives exactly the card's false hits a non-zero score: zzzz 9.9e-3 on Field Zoo and New Project (Wizard) via its repeated-letter skip; ingest 2.9e-3..2.3e-2 on the four entries; wayne 1.4e-4 on Styling (ADR-0065)). Item 2 CONFIRMED (CommandDialog spreads props onto the Radix Dialog; ui/ untouched); route taken = match in the palette and render only matches (neither forceMount nor query-in-value needed; forceMount rejected because a force-mounted zero-score item is not counted by cmdk's filtered.count); the Dialog+Command composition route measured (both exported) and not taken (copies CommandDialog's composition out of the Shadcn-synced file; a filter sees only a value string). Item 3: theme and full-search commands follow the rule over their existing values. Item 4: pinned with the showcase's real CJK label 'Command Center (大屏)'.

ACCEPT — domain:ui seat 3, session_01CGZy1BGCjdN5cXqL9cnvB8, 2026-10-08T04:24Z. PR objectui#11883, head a76ebb5.

PR shape: draft against main, branched from 5d69133, no rebase. git merge-tree of the current main (3035948) and this head is clean; the queue tests that merge. First line Fixes #11812, no other closing keyword. Clause-②: no at line start. Both commits carry only the model-free trailer pair. Assigned to os-support-ai.
Scope: 5 files, +491/−42, on the claim's surface (6051110257):
- chrome/CommandPalette.tsx;
- one new module-private matcher, chrome/paletteMatch.ts, which index.ts does not re-export;
- two new pin files and the changeset (patch on @object-ui/app-shell).
packages/components/src/ui/** is untouched (objectui AGENTS.md 构建一个 **Live Playground (实时演练场)** (用于展示引擎能力) #7), and so are the record search and the ?palette=1 deep link. Nothing is added to the package entry. No governed path.
Diff read (the seat's own):
- matchesPaletteQuery(query, terms) normalises the way cmdk does (lower case; whitespace and hyphens as a space). It accepts a word prefix of a term, or a contiguous substring from 3 characters on. Each Han, Hiragana or Katakana character starts a word. There is no typo tolerance. A blank query matches everything.
- CommandPalette filters each navigation group by label and machine name, and the apps by label and name, then renders only the matches and a group only when something matched. The theme and full-search commands are matched over the values they already had.
- No cmdk value changed. Every rendered entry carries the query as a contiguous run of its value, so cmdk's own scorer accepts it, and CommandEmpty shows exactly when nothing matched and the record search found nothing.
- The recent-records group renders only on an empty query, and the record hits are unchanged.
Brief readings, measured:
- Zone 2 Implement visual designer for Object UI schemas #1 is confirmed. cmdk 1.1.1's commandScore gives the card's false hits a non-zero score: zzzz on "Field Zoo", through its repeated-letter skip.
- Zone 2 Add automated testing infrastructure and CI/CD workflows #2 is confirmed: CommandDialog spreads its props onto the Radix Dialog. Of the two routes, the palette's own matching was taken. forceMount was rejected, because cmdk does not count a force-mounted item, so "No results" would break. The composition route was measured and not taken.
- Zone 2 Add default props to all components to prevent collapse in designer #4 is pinned with the showcase's real CJK label "Command Center (大屏)".
Named behaviour changes (in the PR body; they follow triage's matching rule, "prefix or substring scoring … for navigation entries"):
- initials no longer match (fz no longer finds "Field Zoo");
- the group's type word is not a matching term (page finds entries whose label or name holds "page", not every page).
Ruling honoured (triage 6043346622): "prefix or substring scoring, with a minimum score, for navigation entries" and "record search is unchanged". ?palette=1 is untouched.
Changeset sentences checked against the head:
- "An entry matches when the query, ignoring case, starts a word of its label or machine name … or, from three characters on, appears anywhere in one of them";
- "each of their characters starts a word";
- "Record hits are unchanged";
- "Nothing is added to the package entry".
Reverse verification (dev report):
- Ablation through ablation-replace.mjs: the matcher replaced by "always matches" gives the five pins red with the card's own readings, and the two controls green. Restored with the blob equal to HEAD.
- The whole @object-ui/app-shell suite: 1097 files, 10803 tests passed. The existing palette suites pass unchanged.
- Real browser (Chromium, the console with the showcase's full 50-entry navigation and a stubbed record search), before and after: zzzz now shows "No results found."; ingest and wayne show only the record; field and 大屏 are unchanged.
Gates: CI on a76ebb5 (head_sha equals the PR head): 43 runs, 40 success, 3 skipped (Test (coverage), its shard template, dependabot), 0 failure. Lint and Type Check are success. Mergeable state clean.
Contract review: not required (Clause-②: no).

Findings:

The theme commands are matched by their English value words in every locale, so a zh viewer typing 主题 finds none of them. This predates the change and no declared contract covers it → Acceptance notes

Landing: ready + auto-merge through the queue, now.

Landed — domain:ui seat 3, session_01CGZy1BGCjdN5cXqL9cnvB8, 2026-10-08T04:44Z. PR objectui#11883 merged through the queue as 9cb4e29 at 2026-10-08T04:43Z.

The merge:
- One parent, 4373484, an ancestor of origin/main.
- The landed tree equals git merge-tree of that parent and the accepted head a76ebb5 (tree 1588caa2 on both).
- 5 files, +491/−42.
Content check, 4373484 → 9cb4e29:
- matchesPaletteQuery in chrome/CommandPalette.tsx: 0 → 3.
- chrome/paletteMatch.ts went from absent to present, and packages/app-shell/src/index.ts names it 0 times, so the matcher stays module-private.
- Control: packages/components/src/ui/command.tsx (Shadcn-synced, objectui AGENTS.md 构建一个 **Live Playground (实时演练场)** (用于展示引擎能力) #7) is byte-identical on both sides.
Closures: the PR's only closing keyword was Fixes #11812, and this merge closed only objectui#11812 (04:43Z). The other issues closed since 04:02Z are other seats' merges. pm:dispatched is removed.
Follow-ups: none filed. The theme commands are matched by their English value words in every locale; that is in the PR's Acceptance notes, predates the change, and no declared contract covers it.
