   Claim: domain:ui execution seat (objectui), session session_011SfZeFWrhGLHmfq61xbz4q, round 25.
   Branch: claude/issue-6426-dashboard-test-header

   Serial constraints — file face: test headers under packages/plugin-dashboard/src/**/__tests__ (the stale header the card names, plus the sibling note in ObjectMetricWidget.i18nLabel.test.tsx), and one empty-frontmatter changeset.

   Triage's serial note is now discharged, not carried. It reads "#6373 is in flight in the same package" — #6373 has since landed and merged, so there is no sequencing left to do: this branch takes plugin-dashboard from main with #6373's EnrichedColumn work already in it. No open PR in this lane touches the package.

   Worth knowing while editing the header: #6373 is precisely the card that nearly got misrouted by this text, and the pin it landed ({ [K in Exclude<keyof FieldMeta, keyof TableColumn | 'name'>]?: never }, derived rather than hand-listed) is a live counter-example sitting in the same package — the header now contradicts a compile-time pin that exists on disk.

Rewrote the stale \"this package's tests are compiled by nothing\" premise in packages/plugin-dashboard/src/__tests__/MetricWidget.domPassthrough.test.tsx, which prescribed against writing compile-time pins in this package. Censusing the shape rather than the string turned up a THIRD file the card did not name — packages/plugin-dashboard/src/domPassthroughPins.ts, the counterpart half of the same contract — carrying the identical false premise plus a stale \"6 errors, objectui#4118\" count; fixed in place under the bounded-in-place-fix exemption (same defect class, same package, mechanical, same gate family), since fixing only the test file would have left the two halves of one contract disagreeing. Both headers now name the config that does it: tsconfig.test.json, chained from the package's type-check script. Judgement call on the domPassthroughPins.ts placement reasoning: pins KEPT in src/ and the reason re-framed as a preference rather than a constraint — of its three stated reasons, only \"tests are compiled by nothing\" was load-bearing and it is now false; \"pins belong next to the contract, type-only so zero runtime bytes\" is still true and now carries the placement on its own; the tsconfig.typetests.json ratchet is still live but beside the point now that tests are compiled directly. Sibling note in ObjectMetricWidget.i18nLabel.test.tsx was checked and needs NO change — it already says tsconfig.test.json type-checks the file, and its account of tsc reporting directives UNUSED is only observable if the file is compiled. No public surface change.",
     "tests": "All four triage claims independently re-derived on origin/main @ e929c562a; none contradicted. (1) packages/plugin-dashboard/tsconfig.test.json exists with include [src/**/*.test.ts, src/**/*.test.tsx, src/**/*.d.ts]. (2) type-check script is `tsc --noEmit && tsc -p tsconfig.test.json`. (3) node scripts/check-type-check-coverage.mjs verdict line: \"test type-check coverage: 41/41 packages compile their tests, 0 declared debt (0 errors outstanding), 0 with a narrow type-assertion project.\" — and TEST_DEBT is literally `export const TEST_DEBT = {};`. (4) ABLATION for TS2578: injected an @ts-expect-error guarding a line with no error above a unique anchor; PROVED ON DISK BEFORE MEASURING — injected-marker grep -c = 1 and blob hash moved dda92dbb6a5b -> 35539651ea19; `tsc -p tsconfig.test.json` then exited 2 printing \"src/__tests__/MetricWidget.domPassthrough.test.tsx(65,1): error TS2578: Unused '@ts-expect-error' directive.\" RESTORE leg proved by observation not exit code: `git checkout HEAD -- <absolute path>` under an EXIT/INT/TERM trap with an absolute repo-root path; afterwards `git diff HEAD` empty, marker count 0, on-disk hash == HEAD blob hash dda92dbb6a5b. No rebuild leg was needed or claimed: this ablation is a pure tsc program-membership probe, not a dist/ consumer — the dependency closure WAS built first (`pnpm --filter @object-ui/plugin-dashboard^... build`, exit 0) so the type-checks are not cold-run TS2307s. PROGRAM MEMBERSHIP with controls: `tsc -p tsconfig.test.json --listFiles` puts 81 of this package's test files in the program including both relevant files; negative control name scores 0; the BUILD tsconfig --listFiles includes domPassthroughPins.ts (1) and 0 test files. CENSUS used the shape not one identifier (patterns: compiled by nothing / uncompiled test / not compiled / never compil / vitest erases types / TEST_DEBT / typetests / decorat / 3181), each with a positive control (TEST_DEBT -> 20 hits repo-wide; domProps -> 8 hits in-package; find tsconfig.test.json -> 36 as control for tsconfig.typetests.json -> 0). FINAL GATES on final commit 771ebb3eb, exit codes captured before any pipe: `pnpm --filter @object-ui/plugin-dashboard type-check` exit 0 (output echoes the package name and `tsc --noEmit && tsc -p tsconfig.test.json`, so not a zero-match filter reading as green); `pnpm exec vitest run` from REPO ROOT on 3 suites -> \"Test Files 3 passed (3) / Tests 25 passed (25)\" (note: package-level vitest is blocked by this repo's own OBJECTUI_VITEST_GUARD, which I obeyed rather than bypassed); check-type-check-coverage \"41/41 ... 0 declared debt\"; check-changeset-presence \"2 source file(s) of 1 released package(s) changed ... Every one of them has an EMPTY frontmatter — declared as releasing nothing\"; check-changeset-no-major \"No changeset declares a major bump.\"; check:control-bytes \"check-control-bytes: OK (scanned 5344 tracked text file(s); skipped 85 binary).\" LINT NARROWING, measured: ran the affected package's own lint (`pnpm --filter @object-ui/plugin-dashboard lint`, exit 0, \"393 problems (0 errors, 393 warnings)\", all pre-existing no-explicit-any in untouched files) instead of the repo-wide farm. (i) population read from eslint's own config via `eslint . --format json` = 111 files selected in this package; (ii) both changed files are in that set at errors 0 / warnings 0; (iii) invariance: eslint.config.js configures no project / projectService / tsconfigRootDir, so type-aware linting is OFF and each file's verdict depends only on its own bytes plus shared config — this diff changes no config file and touches 2 files, both inside the linted set, so nothing outside it can move. CLAUSE 2 — no public surface change: git diff restricted to **/src/index.ts is empty (0 lines) and no src/index.ts appears in the changed-file list; the diff is 3 files (2 block comments + 1 changeset).",

   ACCEPT — PR #6466, head 771ebb3eb. Verified against the tree, not the report.

   Comment-only, proved rather than asserted

   Filtering the whole packages/plugin-dashboard diff for any line that is not a comment or blank returns nothing. Three files: two comment blocks and a changeset whose frontmatter is genuinely empty (--- / ---). No pin was added to justify the PR's existence, which is what the dispatch asked for.

   The third file is in scope, and finding it was the point

   My dispatch declared the file face as test headers, and src/domPassthroughPins.ts is not one — so I checked before accepting. It is in scope twice over: triage's own comment says to "leave the domPassthroughPins.ts placement reasoning to the implementer's judgement", which anticipates touching it, and the dispatch warned that a symbol-literal census misses the same judgement wearing another name. Censusing the shape found the counterpart half of the same contract carrying the identical false premise plus a stale error count. Fixing only the test file would have left the two halves of one contract disagreeing — the expansion is the right call, and it stayed comment-only.

   The judgement call on placement is sound

   Of the three reasons that header gave for keeping pins in src/, only "tests are compiled by nothing" was load-bearing and it is now false. Re-framing the remaining true reason ("pins belong next to the contract, type-only so zero runtime bytes") as a preference rather than a constraint is the honest shape: it keeps what is still true without letting it masquerade as the same kind of prohibition the card was filed to remove.

   The sibling check triage asked for — confirmed, and it needed nothing

   ObjectMetricWidget.i18nLabel.test.tsx is untouched by this PR. It names tsconfig.test.json at :246, and a grep for every stale-premise spelling (compiled by nothing, not compiled, never compil, uncompiled, typetests, TEST_DEBT) returns zero hits in it. "No change needed" is correct.

   Two things worth naming

   The TS2578 ablation proved the mutation on disk before measuring anything — injected-marker count 1, blob hash moved — and proved the restore by observation (git diff HEAD empty, marker count 0, on-disk hash back to the HEAD blob) rather than by a git checkout exit code. That is the standard.

   And OBJECTUI_VITEST_GUARD was obeyed rather than bypassed — the run moved to the repo root instead. A guard worked around is a guard deleted.

   Clause-②: no public surface change. git diff -- '**/src/index.ts' '**/src/index.tsx' is empty and no entry point appears in the changed-file list.

   Enqueue is held only on CI: 29 checks, 0 failed, 9 pending.

   #6465 — filed out of scope, and its premise verifies

   tsconfig.typetests.json exists nowhere in the tree (git ls-tree -r origin/main → 0 hits), so roughly ten headers across app-shell and core cite a config file that does not exist. Correctly left for its own card rather than folded in here — different packages, far larger review surface. Left unassigned and ungraded for triage.
