finding(plugin-grid): ObjectGrid 在 ObjectGridSchema.columns 上容忍未声明的 accessorKey / header 拼写 —— 声明类型是 strict 的 ListColumn,#3104 的列身份门禁结构上看不见这条支路 #5068

Description

@yinlianghui

发现于 #5013 的实施(plugin-grid README 标识符漂移)。Filed unassigned, not claiming. 观察类:今天没有用户会撞到,记录的是声明面与运行时读取面的分叉。

事实

ObjectGridSchema.columns 的声明类型是 string[] | ListColumn[](packages/types/src/objectql.ts),而 ListColumnSchema(@objectstack/spec/ui)是 strict Zod 对象:field 必填,accessorKey / header 不在其中,会被拒绝而不是忽略。

运行时另有一条支路接受那个未声明的拼写 —— packages/plugin-grid/src/ObjectGrid.tsx:1361-1379:

// Check if columns are already in data-table format (have 'accessorKey')
// vs ListColumn format (have 'field')
if ('accessorKey' in firstCol) {
  …
  const syntheticCol: ListColumn = { field: col.accessorKey, label: col.header, type: col.type };

于是同一个键有两种拼法:声明的一种(field / label),和只在运行时成立的一种(accessorKey / header)。accessorKey 是 @object-ui/components data-table(TanStack)的内部列键,不是 ObjectStack 的元数据身份。

为什么现在记下来

  1. 它正是 plugin-grid README 教 gridComponents 手动注册与 GridSchema / GridColumn 类型 —— 前两者不存在,GridSchema 这个名字在 types 里是 CSS Grid #5013 那处文档漂移看起来可信的原因。 README 的虚构 interface GridColumn { header; accessorKey; … } 形状照抄进 object-grid 的 columns 里确实会渲染,所以没有任何信号说它错了 —— 声明面拒绝、运行时接受,读者只能看到后者。
  2. [fields] grid columns have two incompatible key spellings: declared type says name, GridField reads field — spec-compliant grid metadata renders empty cells #3951 是同族且已按另一方向结案:fields 的 grid 列曾有 name(声明)/ field(运行时读取)两种拼写,处置是在生产端统一为一种、不留容忍别名(AGENTS.md #0.1)。本处是同一形状,尚未处置。
  3. 既有门禁看不见它。 packages/core/src/utils/__tests__/column-identity.ratchet.test.ts(列身份双读家族:field ?? name 两种优先序并存于 15+ 处——ingestion 归一 + 单键消费 + 禁新增闸门(objectstack#4115) #3104)专门盯列身份的双读,但它的检测器要求同一行上出现两个以上身份键的 || / ?? 交替链;这里是 if ('accessorKey' in firstCol) 的分支 + 合成,结构上不进它的扫描面。accessorKey 在那份清单里还被显式列为 COMPANION_KEYS(「单独出现不构成本族」)。

出处

这条支路本身早于 #902;#902(已关闭,「accessorKey-format columns bypass type inference」)是在已有的容忍之上补了类型推断,让这条支路也能渲染徽章/日期。所以本卡问的不是「#902 的修复对不对」,而是:这个未声明的拼写应当被声明,还是应当像 #3951 那样退役?

两条路各自的代价值得一并定级:

复核方式

sed -n '1357,1380p' packages/plugin-grid/src/ObjectGrid.tsx           # 容忍支路
grep -rn "field: z.ZodString" node_modules/@objectstack/spec/dist/view.zod-*.d.ts | head   # ListColumnSchema,strict
grep -n "COMPANION_KEYS" packages/core/src/utils/__tests__/column-identity.ratchet.test.ts

分级

finding,不入 pm:queue。要不要动、往哪边动,取决于维护者对上面那个二选一的裁定;本卡只把分叉与门禁盲区记在案。

    Triage (triage seat, session session_01HXzdkKx5WjwwCTT3c7U5kB): finding → pm:queue, type Task, auto-adjudicated — veto window open.

    Ruling: inherit the #3951 disposition together with its reason (same defect family, same repo: two spellings for one column identity ⇒ unify at the producer side, no consumer-side tolerance alias — AGENTS.md #0.1). Applied here: retire the undeclared accessorKey / header tolerance branch in ObjectGrid.tsx:1361–1379; ObjectGridSchema.columns reads only the declared ListColumn spelling (field / label). This narrows runtime tolerance back to the declared strict contract (declared = enforced restoration, no acceptance-set expansion), which is what puts it in the adjudication lane; the opposite direction (promoting TanStack's internal key into the authored contract) would be a spec-surface change and is NOT ruled here.

    Census first (fork clause): before deleting, measure in-the-wild authorized usage — repo-internal accessorKey hits are all @object-ui/components data-table internals per the card, but sweep examples/**, content/docs/**, apps, and fixtures for accessorKey-shaped object-grid columns. Any real authorized usage found ⇒ stop, report, card goes to the inbox instead. Include a loud-rejection or dev-time warning consideration in the PR notes if census shows the shape circulating in docs history.

    Family serial: #5120 is the same ruling applied to the adapter/producers on the other side — dispatch THIS card first; its outcome re-prices #5120 (ask the dev the standard "does your change make #5120 easier/harder/unnecessary?" question in the report).

    Size/model suggestion: M, mode:subagent.

    Branch: claude/issue-5068-grid-column-accessorkey-tolerance
    Worktree: objectui-issue-5068
    Domain: repo:objectui (execution seat)
    File surface: packages/plugin-grid/src/ObjectGrid.tsx — the tolerance branch around :1361–1379 only — plus tests under packages/plugin-grid. ⛔ OUT: packages/components/** (#5125, in flight), the console top bar + packages/app-shell/** (#5287, in flight), packages/plugin-view/** (#5248, PR5336 in review). ⛔ Not packages/types / @objectstack/spec — promoting TanStack's internal key into the authored contract is the opposite direction and is explicitly not ruled.
    Container & model: M, mode:subagent, model: opus (size per the triage seat; the census is the judgement).
    Clause-②: no — this narrows runtime tolerance back to the declared strict contract. declared = enforced restoration, no acceptance-set expansion. That is precisely what put it in the adjudication lane rather than on the human floor.
    Serial constraints cleared: ObjectGrid.tsx is free right now — PR5333 (#5148, the add-row permission gate) merged minutes ago, and #5241 / #5192 are long merged. Rebase on current main and re-read :1361–1379; PR5333 added ~39 lines above them, so the range has moved. ⚠️ One live risk, named so you can react instead of being surprised: #5240 sits in the maintainer's inbox with an open Q2 that may widen a fix into this same file. If a new claim lands on #5240 while you are in flight, stop and tell me rather than racing it.

    Zone 1 — RULED (auto-adjudicated by the triage seat, veto window open)

    Ruling: inherit the #3951 disposition together with its reason (same defect family, same repo: two spellings for one column identity ⇒ unify at the producer side, no consumer-side tolerance alias — AGENTS.md #0.1). Applied here: retire the undeclared accessorKey / header tolerance branch in ObjectGrid.tsx:1361–1379; ObjectGridSchema.columns reads only the declared ListColumn spelling (field / label). This narrows runtime tolerance back to the declared strict contract … the opposite direction (promoting TanStack's internal key into the authored contract) would be a spec-surface change and is NOT ruled here.

    Read #3951 before you plan and match what it did. The point of inheriting a disposition is that the repo ends up with one shape for this defect, not two defensible ones.

    ⛔ The census is a stop condition, not a warm-up

    Census first (fork clause): before deleting, measure in-the-wild authorized usage — repo-internal accessorKey hits are all @object-ui/components data-table internals per the card, but sweep examples/**, content/docs/**, apps, and fixtures for accessorKey-shaped object-grid columns. Any real authorized usage found ⇒ stop, report, card goes to the inbox instead.

    Distinguish the two populations carefully, because conflating them is the easy mistake here: TanStack/data-table internals that happen to use the name are not authorized usage; an object-grid column authored with accessorKey/header is. Only the second trips the clause.

    A zero is not a reading until you counter-probe it with a term you know is present in the same corpus, through the same method. Report the commands and their output, not just the verdict. The sibling card that finished an hour ago got this exactly right — every zero paired with a live control on the same corpus — and it is what makes a deletion defensible six months later.

    If the census shows the shape circulating in docs history without live authored usage, the ruling asks for a note in the PR on whether a loud rejection or a dev-time warning is warranted. Consider it and say what you concluded; ⛔ do not implement a warning channel unasked.

    Family serial — and the question you must answer

    #5120 is the same ruling applied to the producers on the other side. This card goes first because its outcome re-prices that one. So the report must answer, in the standard form:

    Does your change make #5120 easier, harder, unnecessary, or unaffected?

    Answer it from what you measured, not from the card text. ⛔ Do not touch #5120's surface — it is packages/components / plugin-dashboard, and packages/components is in flight with #5125 this round.

    Tests

    • A column authored the declared way (field / label) renders exactly as it does today.
    • A column authored accessorKey / header no longer resolves — this is the change, and it must fail before your edit.
    • The failure is legible: whatever a mis-spelled column does now, say what it is (dropped? empty header? error?) and pin it. A silent disappearance is the same class of defect the card is about, one level down.
    • Nothing else in ObjectGrid.tsx's column path regresses — the file just took a permission-gate change and a 27-key exemption in neighbouring PRs.

    Reverse-verify: restore the branch, keep the tests, predict which go red before running, report predicted vs observed. State per leg whether a build artifact sits between the edit and the thing under test.

    Gates

    Derive from your diff (scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs is objectstack-only). Run vitest from the repo root — the reason is not that package-scoped runs are refused (17 packages own a standalone vitest.config.ts, plugin-grid among them, and are not refused) but that a package-scoped run uses a different config than CI does, so its green is not CI's green. Changeset required (@object-ui/plugin-grid); patch or minor, ⛔ never major.

    ⛔ Do not background a long check and end your turn. ⛔ No exhaustive paginated API sweeps.

The census over authored corpora is a clean ZERO with a passing counter-probe, so the fork clause's literal trigger (authored accessorKey-shaped object-grid columns) did NOT fire. But the census turned up something the ruling's model of the family did not have: ONE in-repo producer depends on the branch. bridgeListView (packages/react/src/spec-bridge/bridges/list-view.ts:22-46) takes a spec-canonical ListView whose columns are already spelled field/label, down-translates every column to accessorKey/header, and emits type:'object-grid' — which ObjectGrid then translates back. I applied the ruled deletion and MEASURED it: the bridge's grids lose their entire column set silently (headers ['#','Name'] -> ['#'], cells gone), and the whole 715-test plugin-grid suite stays GREEN, so neither CI nor review would catch it. packages/react is a fourth site, outside this card's granted file surface AND outside #5120's (components/plugin-dashboard). The deletion is correct but not landable alone, so I reverted it and shipped no PR rather than a measured silent regression. Producer filed unassigned as #5340.",
      "tests": "All runs from the repo ROOT (per dispatch), vitest 4.1.10, worktree at 3e0214c00. No build artifact sits between any edit and any thing under test: the root vitest.config.mts aliases every @object-ui/* specifier to that package's src/ (lines 245-270), so ObjectGrid, the bridge in @object-ui/react and @object-ui/core all resolve to source. @objectstack/spec is a prebuilt node_modules dep (17.0.0) and was not edited.\n\n(1) CENSUS — 924 files across examples/, content/docs/, apps/, skills/, e2e/, three independent methods, each zero paired with a control on the SAME corpus through the SAME method.\n  Method 1 (structural JSON walk for object-grid/list-view nodes): CONTROL FAILED — 1 grid node, 0 columns arrays, 0 field-spelled columns. The control term I know is present was NOT found, so this method's zero is not a reading and I DISCARD it. Reported because a discarded method is evidence about the corpus: authored object-grids live in MDX/TSX here, not standalone JSON.\n  Method 2 (windowed text scan, 40 lines after each `object-grid`): 72 occurrences [CONTROL >0 ok], 15 windows contain a `field:` column spelling [CONTROL: term known present, found], 1 window contains accessorKey -> content/docs/plugins/plugin-grid.mdx:53. Inspected: that page is the object-grid docs and its accessorKey mentions are prose FORBIDDING the spelling (':90' = \"The field this column reads. There is no accessorKey.\"; ':107' = \"header and accessorKey are not softer spellings of label and field; they fail validation.\"). Not usage.\n  Method 3 (inverse: classify every accessorKey hit by nearest enclosing `type`): 28 type=data-table, 9 type=table, 4 unclassified. All 4 resolved by hand: content/docs/components/complex/data-table.mdx:21 (the data-table component's own TS interface), plugin-grid.mdx:90 and :107 (the forbidding prose above), skills/objectui/guides/schema-expressions.md:462 (the `table` component section: \"table renders rows from an inline data array against columns accessors\"). Confirmed by opening each.\n  VERDICT: zero authored accessorKey-shaped object-grid columns. Every hit is the table / data-table component (a different component that legitimately owns the name), or documentation forbidding the spelling for object-grid.\n\n(2) DECLARED-SURFACE PROBE — node against the pinned @objectstack/spec@17.0.0:\n  declared {field,label}          -> ACCEPTED\n  undeclared {accessorKey,header} -> REJECTED\n     invalid_type path=[\"field\"]\n     unrecognized_keys path=[] keys=[\"accessorKey\",\"header\"] | \"Unrecognized key(s) on this list column: accessorKey, header.\"\n  So the loud rejection ALREADY EXISTS at the authored surface, by name, with a prescriptive message.\n\n(3) TWO-STATE MEASUREMENT (predictions recorded BEFORE running; rendered ObjectGrid with inline data, two rows, reading role=columnheader plus cell text).\n  PREDICTED: declared unchanged; undeclared and bridge both fall through the object block to the string-array arm at :1672, whose `typeof fieldName === 'string'` filter drops object entries, yielding zero data columns.\n  OBSERVED, branch PRESENT (unmodified main):\n    declared   {field,label}        headers=[\"#\",\"Name\",\"Amount\"]  cells rendered\n    undeclared {accessorKey,header} headers=[\"#\",\"Name\",\"Amount\"]  cells rendered   <- branch is live\n    bridge output = [{\"accessorKey\":\"name\",\"header\":\"Name\"}]      headers=[\"#\",\"Name\"]  cells rendered\n  OBSERVED, branch DELETED:\n    declared   headers=[\"#\",\"Name\",\"Amount\"]  cells rendered   <- unchanged, as ruled\n    undeclared headers=[\"#\"]                  no cells\n    bridge     headers=[\"#\"]                  no cells         <- REGRESSION\n  PREDICTED == OBSERVED on all three legs, both directions.\n\n(4) LEGIBILITY OF THE FAILURE — pinned by measurement, and it is worse than 'one column dropped'. The branch dispatches on cols[0] only, so a mis-spelled FIRST column takes the ENTIRE column set down: total silent disappearance, no error, no warning, no empty header, just the row-number column. Separately, on UNMODIFIED main a mixed array already drops silently today: columns [{field:'name'},{accessorKey:'amount'}] renders headers=[\"#\",\"Name\"] — the undeclared entry is filtered out by the field arm's own .filter(). So today's 'tolerance' is not per-column tolerance at all, it is a first-element sniff that is already incoherent for mixed input. That is an argument FOR retirement, and it is also why the post-deletion silence deserves its own decision (Q2).\n\n(5) BLAST RADIUS — with the branch deleted, from repo root under the shared verify lock:\n  flock -E 99 -w 540 /tmp/os-heavy-verify.lock -c 'NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096 pnpm exec vitest run packages/plugin-grid'\n  -> Test Files 80 passed (80) | Tests 715 passed (715) | Duration 168.82s | EXIT=0\n  Nothing goes red. specBridgeExportFormats.test.tsx renders bridge output THROUGH ObjectGrid and stayed green while its grid silently lost every column — it asserts the export menu, never the columns. The repo cannot currently see this regression.\n\n(6) RATCHET CHECK — the #3104 detector (packages/core/src/utils/__tests__/column-identity.ratchet.test.ts) needs a `||`/`??` line with >=2 distinct IDENTITY_KEYS ['field','name','fieldName'] in dot-access form; accessorKey is only a COMPANION_KEY, so the branch never entered its scan face (as the card says). ObjectGrid.tsx is in that test's CONVERGED list, which requires /columnIdentity\\s*\\(/ to still match — it does, at :1058/:1082/:1089, untouched by the deletion. I also drafted the replacement comment in PROSE, not as an alternation expression, per the wording trap PR4909 hit on exactly this gate.\n\nWORKTREE STATE: deletion applied, measured, then reverted with `git checkout --`. Tree clean at 3e0214c00, no commits, no PR. The prescribed reverse-verification leg ('restore the branch, keep the tests') was NOT run in that form, because no test file was landed — what I ran instead is the two-state measurement in (3), with predictions recorded first.

Startup-focus cuts toward A: it removes surface rather than adding it, and B pays two dispatch rounds for the same end state. LONG-TERM SOUNDNESS: A is the shape the repo has already settled — core/src/utils/column-identity.ts names accessorKey TABLE_ADAPTER_COLUMN_KEY and deliberately keeps it OUT of the metadata identity fold, exactly so metadata vocabulary comes IN and adapter vocabulary goes OUT with one translation at the boundary. After A, ObjectGrid is monolingual on both sides: it reads only field/label and writes only accessorKey (:1652 etc., untouched). A also strictly IMPROVES the bridge, which today routes spec-canonical views through the accessorKey arm — type inference only — instead of the field arm the source itself calls 'full feature support' (objectDef enrichment, resolveFieldLabel i18n, primary-field auto-link, hidden filtering, link/action). Bridged ListViews currently render with LESS than a directly authored object-grid; A fixes that as a side effect. AI-AUTHORED METADATA HARD TO GET WRONG: strongest axis for A. The spec already rejects accessorKey/header BY NAME at parse; the only reason the wrong spelling looked right was that the renderer accepted what the schema refuses — declared != enforced, which is precisely the surface where AI-authored metadata goes wrong and stays wrong.

But the census ground is not the whole question, because I measured something the card could not have known: after the deletion a mis-spelled column set vanishes in TOTAL SILENCE, and because the first entry gates the whole array, ONE wrong column silently deletes ALL of them. ObjectGrid is downstream of no parse (it reads schema.columns raw at :904, and the bridge comment at list-view.ts:120-135 confirms there is no parse/safeParse anywhere under spec-bridge/), so for a host that never validates, nothing anywhere shouts.

I measured that ObjectGrid's two sides are independent — the input branch this card retires (:1451-1489) and the output mapping that feeds the adapter (:1652 etc.) share no code. Retiring the input branch makes ObjectGrid monolingual on intake (declared metadata only) while its output stays in the adapter's vocabulary, which is exactly the TABLE_ADAPTER_COLUMN_KEY boundary discipline #5120 wants generalized — so #5068 converts ObjectGrid from a producer that speaks two dialects into the reference example of the shape #5120 is arguing for, and shrinks #5120's problem from three divergent producers to two. Not unnecessary: #5120's actual defects — the col.accessorKey || col.name alias at components/src/renderers/complex/data-table.tsx:777 and :786, and ObjectDataTable's name-first read at plugin-dashboard :110 that never reads field — are untouched by anything here and still need their own fix. Not harder in code terms. The one caveat that IS harder: #5340 adds a FOURTH producer to the family that #5120's card text does not mention, so whoever sequences this family now has one more site to price than the card describes."

    PM: Q1 answered — option A granted. This is a SCOPE call, not a re-ruling, and the difference matters. Round 17, session session_01RV6yuVCxymHYE16PL9vQkE. Card stays pm:dispatched; re-dispatching with the file surface widened.

    The dev stopped correctly. It applied the ruled deletion, measured that it silently blanks every bridged grid, and reverted rather than shipping a regression it had proof of. That is the behaviour the order asked for.

    Why this is mine to answer rather than yours

    The mechanical boundary test decides it: option A changes no contract. It narrows on both sides — the consumer stops accepting a spelling the spec already rejects by name, and the producer stops emitting a spelling it was never given (its input is already field/label). No acceptance set widens, no public surface grows, and the ruled direction is unchanged. What was wrong was the file surface I granted, which is an execution-seat call.

    And the ruling's own precedent settles it. #3951 — the disposition this card inherits — did not confine itself to one package: PR4909 migrated the consumer in packages/fields and the producer deriveMasterDetail in packages/plugin-form, in one PR. Landing producer + consumer together is the inherited disposition; my one-package surface was the deviation.

    ⛔ Option C is rejected on the dev's evidence, not on principle. ⛔ Option D (declare accessorKey) remains unruled and contradicts #3951.

    The measurement that decides it

    branch PRESENT   declared  headers ["#","Name","Amount"]  cells rendered
                     undeclared headers ["#","Name","Amount"] cells rendered
                     bridge     headers ["#","Name"]          cells rendered
    branch DELETED   declared  unchanged
                     undeclared headers ["#"]  no cells
                     bridge     headers ["#"]  no cells   ← REGRESSION
    

    Predictions recorded before running; predicted == observed on all three legs, both directions. And the part that makes it dangerous rather than merely wrong: with the branch deleted, pnpm exec vitest run packages/plugin-grid stays green — 80 files, 715 tests — while specBridgeExportFormats.test.tsx renders bridge output through ObjectGrid and watches its grid lose every column. Neither CI nor review would have caught it.

    Two further measurements worth keeping:

    • The census discarded one of its own three methods, because the control term it knew was present did not turn up: "the control term I know is present was NOT found, so this method's zero is not a reading and I DISCARD it." That is the counter-probe rule applied against the dev's own work, and the discarded method still taught something — authored object-grids live in MDX/TSX here, not standalone JSON.
    • Today's "tolerance" is already incoherent. The branch dispatches on cols[0] only, so on unmodified main a mixed array [{field:'name'},{accessorKey:'amount'}] already drops the second column silently. It is a first-element sniff, not a tolerance.

    The widened surface, and the serial constraint that comes with it

    Granted: packages/react/src/spec-bridge/bridges/list-view.ts (mapColumn emits field/label), its two pinned assertions at SpecBridge.test.ts:107,111, and a second changeset for @object-ui/react — landed in one PR with the ObjectGrid deletion.

    ⚠️ list-view.ts is now held by this card. #5240's open Q2/C in the maintainer's inbox proposes fixing a different key (userActions) at this same producer. Different region, same file — so whichever lands second rebases, and I will serialize them. If a claim appears on #5240 while this is in flight, stop and tell me.

    Q2 — noted, and correctly not implemented

    The dev's read is right and I am adopting it: on the ground the ruling named (docs history circulating the shape) the answer is no — the spec already rejects these keys by name and the census found no authored usage. But after the deletion a mis-spelled column set vanishes in total silence, and one wrong first column takes the whole set with it. That is the same failure this card is fixing, relocated — so it is worth its own card, filed once the deletion lands, not a rider here. ⛔ Do not implement a warning channel in this PR.

    #5120 re-pricing, answered from measurement

    Easier, with one caveat. ObjectGrid's two sides share no code — the input branch retired here (:1451-1489) and the output mapping feeding the adapter (:1652) are independent — so retiring the input branch makes ObjectGrid monolingual on intake while its output stays in the adapter's vocabulary, which is the TABLE_ADAPTER_COLUMN_KEY boundary #5120 wants generalized. It shrinks #5120 from three divergent producers to two. Not unnecessary: the col.accessorKey || col.name alias at data-table.tsx:777/:786 and ObjectDataTable's name-first read at :110 are untouched. The caveat: #5340 adds a fourth producer the card text never mentioned, so the family gained a site to sequence.

      "summary": "Landed both halves of the round trip in ONE PR, which is what the granted option A asks for and what #3951's own PR4909 did (consumer in packages/fields + producer deriveMasterDetail in packages/plugin-form). Consumer: ObjectGrid's undeclared accessorKey/header tolerance branch is deleted, and the `columns[0]` sniff goes with it, so column identity is judged per column by the one filter that already did it — a bounded extension of the same defect class, named explicitly in the PR body rather than smuggled in. Producer: bridgeListView's mapColumn emits `{ field, label? }` and the spec's bare-string shorthand maps to `{ field }`; it also stops synthesizing `label: col.field`, which had been pre-empting ObjectGrid's own header chain and was the reason a bridged view rendered raw machine names where an authored object-grid rendered the field's real (localizable) label. Two changesets, both minor. The premise held exactly as the first dispatch measured it — nothing needed re-deciding. Q2 (a diagnostic for the now-silent drop) is NOT implemented, per the PM's instruction; I did not file its card either, since the PM said it should be filed once the deletion LANDS and the PR is not merged — flagging that so it is not dropped. #5240 was re-checked at the start and again at the end: still open, needs-user-decision, unassigned, no claim comment — no race on list-view.ts.",
      "tests": "All runs from the repo ROOT (per dispatch), vitest 4.1.10, worktree at 798482b3 — the FINAL commit; every gate below ran on that exact tree (`git status --porcelain` empty, verified after the reverse-verification legs were restored). Heavy runs under `flock -E 99 -w 540 /tmp/os-heavy-verify.lock` with `NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=4096`.\n\nBUILD ARTIFACT QUESTION, per leg: NONE sits between any edit and anything under test. Verified rather than assumed — the root `vitest.config.mts` aliases `@object-ui/react` -> `packages/react/src` (:252) and `@object-ui/plugin-grid` -> `packages/plugin-grid/src` (:258), and `../ObjectGrid` is a relative source import. Confirmed empirically too: source-only edits flipped every leg below with no build in between. The one place a build DID matter was `type-check`, which failed with 20+ `Cannot find module '@object-ui/types'` in a fresh worktree until `pnpm --filter '@object-ui/plugin-grid^...' --filter '@object-ui/react^...' build` was run; re-run after, both Done.\n\n(1) LEG 0 — new tests vs UNMODIFIED source (predictions written to disk BEFORE the run):\n  PREDICTED 9 red of 34, named individually. OBSERVED exactly those 9, including the sharpest one:\n    x does not resolve a column authored the undeclared way\n      -> expected [ '#', 'Name', 'Amount' ] to deeply equal [ '#' ]        (the tolerance, live)\n    x drops the undeclared column and keeps the declared one, whichever comes first\n      -> Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'toLowerCase')       (predicted TypeError)\n    x emits the declared spelling — the node carries no adapter key\n      -> expected [ { accessorKey: 'name', ...(1) } ] to deeply equal [ { field: 'name', label: 'Name' } ]\n  NEW EVIDENCE beyond the first dispatch's measurement: the first agent measured `[{field},{accessorKey}]`\n  dropping the 2nd column silently. The REVERSE order does not drop — it THROWS mid-render, because\n  `inferColumnType` reads `col.field.toLowerCase()` on a column synthesized from a missing `accessorKey`.\n\n(2) LEG 1 — both halves applied:\n  vitest run [the 3 new/updated files] + specBridgeExportFormats + packages/react/spec-bridge\n  -> Test Files 9 passed (9) | Tests 127 passed (127) | EXIT=0   (predicted all green; observed all green)\n\n(3) FULL SUITES, both affected packages, final tree:\n  vitest run packages/plugin-grid packages/react --maxWorkers=2\n  -> Test Files 130 passed (130) | Tests 1392 passed (1392) | Duration 233.19s | EXIT=0\n\n(4) REVERSE VERIFICATION — three legs, each predicted before running, each restored from the COMMIT\n    (`git checkout origin/main -- [file]` then `git checkout HEAD -- [file]`; never `git stash`):\n  LEG 2 consumer-only revert (tolerance restored, producer canonical):\n    PREDICTED 3 red — only the consumer pins; all bridge tests green, because a canonical producer\n    needs no tolerance. OBSERVED: Tests 3 failed | 124 passed — exactly those 3.\n  LEG 3 producer-only revert (tolerance retired, bridge down-translating) — THE LEG THAT WOULD HAVE\n    SHIPPED THE REGRESSION:\n    PREDICTED 7 red (4 bridge-seam pins + 3 react assertions) with specBridgeExportFormats GREEN.\n    OBSERVED: Tests 7 failed | 120 passed, exactly those 7, and:\n      x renders every column of a bridged view -> Unable to find an element with the text: Ada\n      v specBridgeExportFormats ... all 5 tests GREEN\n    That green is the point: the pre-existing suite renders bridge output THROUGH ObjectGrid and\n    cannot see the blanking. The new pin can.\n  LEG 4 both reverted == LEG 0, already measured.\n  PREDICTED == OBSERVED on every leg, both directions. No leg reversed or produced 'more diagnostics'.\n\n(5) GATES derived from the diff (`scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs` does not exist in objectui — checked):\n  pnpm --filter @object-ui/plugin-grid --filter @object-ui/react type-check -> both echoed the script\n     name and printed 'Done' (no zero-match silent pass)\n  pnpm --filter @object-ui/plugin-grid --filter @object-ui/react lint -> 0 errors (638 + 341 pre-existing\n     warnings); react's leg re-run alone to prove it was not a zero-match\n  pnpm check:control-bytes -> OK (4730 tracked text files, 85 binary skipped)\n  pnpm check:phantom-deps  -> OK (3061 source files, 14978 specifiers)\n  pnpm check:self-import   -> OK (44 packages)\n  pnpm check:doc-types     -> OK (143 mdx, 632 code blocks, 564 type literals)\n  vitest run packages/core/src/utils/__tests__/column-identity.ratchet.test.ts -> 7 passed.

This PR changes no exported type.\n  Self-scan beyond the gate, per the control-byte rule:\n     grep -naP '[\\x00-\\x08\\x0b\\x0c\\x0e-\\x1f\\x7f]' over the diff and the PR body -> no hits.\n\n(6) BLAST RADIUS beyond the two packages — structural sweep of the whole tracked tree for files\n    mentioning BOTH `object-grid` and `accessorKey`: only the two files this PR edits, their tests, and\n    app-shell's metadata-admin i18n key table. `RelatedList` (plugin-detail) normalizes columns to\n    `accessorKey` but renders `type: 'data-table'` — the adapter component, not this path — so its four\n    accessorKey fixtures are unaffected and green in the runs above. `core`'s schema-builder test builds a\n    data-table too. No ablation was performed anywhere in this task, so no rebuild claim applies.\n\n(7) CENSUS re-verification (did not redo the 924-file sweep; verified what I relied on, and extended it):\n  - `content/docs/plugins/plugin-grid.mdx:90,:107` re-read: both accessorKey mentions are prose FORBIDDING\n    the spelling for object-grid. Confirmed, not usage.\n  - EXTENSION — package READMEs were NOT among the corpora the first sweep enumerated (it named examples/,\n    content/docs/, apps/, skills/, e2e/). Swept them: `packages/plugin-dashboard/README.md:473-479` and\n    `packages/types/README.md:94-96` are `type: \"table\"` and `type: 'data-table'` respectively; likewise\n    `content/docs/guide/quick-start.md:85` and `content/docs/index.md:29`. Classified by reading the\n    enclosing node `type` in each. Still a clean zero for authored accessorKey-shaped object-grid columns.\n  - Spec-side claim re-checked structurally: ListColumnSchema in the pinned @objectstack/spec dist has\n    `field: z.ZodString` (required) and an OPTIONAL `label` that may be an I18n record — which the retired\n    down-translation used to drop into `header` verbatim.",

Its CREATE path is already canonical (`makeColumn`, previews/view-column-io.ts:60, emits `{ field }` plus `label` only when the label differs from the machine name — the same 'do not invent a label' discipline this PR adopts in the bridge). Unassigned, labelled `finding`, no `pm:queue`: this is the fifth site in the family and the only EDITOR, and normalize-on-write vs leave-it is a call, not a bug fix. Searched first — no existing issue covers it (#5340 is the bridge, #5120 is components/plugin-dashboard).",

The caveat has CHANGED shape: the first dispatch flagged #5340 as a fourth producer the family had to sequence; this PR removes it, so the family is back to the sites #5120's card names — but #5344 (the designer's inspector) is a new fifth site, an EDITOR rather than a renderer, which #5120's card does not cover either.",
