lint: an action body's ctx.api write to a readonly field has no author-time signal — the hook-side gate has no action-side counterpart

Follow-on from #13653, which added hook-api-update-readonly-field for hook bodies. The action body surface has the identical hole and is not covered.

The gap

An action body reaches the engine through the same ScopedContext, so ctx.api.object('x').update({ someReadonlyField }) in an action is dropped by the same non-system stripReadonlyFields pass, with the same silence: the call returns success and the column stays null.

validate-action-body-writes.ts already parses every action body with the same extractor and already resolves field names against the target object. It answers "does this field exist?" but never "is it writable through this channel?" — exactly the split that existed on the hook side before #13653.

Why this is worth filing rather than assuming it is theoretical

The population is live, measured on origin/main at 787d75740 by running the real extractHookBodyWrites over every source: literal in examples/ (187 body sources parsed, positive control: 4 ctx.input writes seen):

examples/app-showcase/src/ui/actions/index.ts :: showcase_task.id       via update
examples/app-showcase/src/ui/actions/index.ts :: showcase_task.done     via update
examples/app-showcase/src/ui/actions/index.ts :: showcase_task.progress via update
examples/app-showcase/src/ui/actions/index.ts :: showcase_invoice.id    via update
examples/app-showcase/src/ui/actions/index.ts :: showcase_invoice.status via update

Five ctx.api update writes in the shipped showcase app. None currently targets a readonly field (done, progress and both status fields are all writable today), so there is no live outage — but there is also nothing stopping the next author adding readonly: to one of them, which is precisely the prose-only protection #13653 was filed about.

Scope note

Deliberately NOT folded into the #13653 PR: the ruling on that card narrowed it to the hook side, and the action surface is a separate write surface with its own rule file, its own pattern-subset ledger and its own test suite. Widening it there would have been undeclared scope.

Shape of the fix, if accepted

validate-readonly-hook-writes.ts is already channel-keyed and reuses buildReadonlyIndex from the flow rule. The action version is the same judgement with one difference worth checking before coding: an action's ctx.record is a dead snapshot, and validate-action-body-writes.ts already tracks ctxRecordEscapes to tell a live write from a discarded one — so the readonly question only applies to the ctx.api shapes there too, not to ctx.record.

Please confirm the severity should match the hook side (error for static readonly, warning for readonlyWhen) rather than being re-argued.

卡明确问了分诊一个问题,现予作答

Please confirm the severity should match the hook side (error for static readonly, warning for readonlyWhen) rather than being re-argued.

确认:与 hook 侧完全一致,⛔ 不重新论证。

依据是本仓已裁的元判据(2026-08-07):一个操作两个实现且行为不一致 ⇒ 带治理的一侧默认胜出,另一侧改绑 —— 这里两个写入面走同一个 ScopedContext、被同一个 stripReadonlyFields 非系统通道丢弃、失败方式同样静默。⇒ 已有治理的一侧是 #13653 落地的 hook 规则;action 侧对齐是默认,要偏离才需要理由。

p2 依据(卡自己给的证据,分诊采信)

拉动已量到且是活的:origin/main@787d75740 上跑真实的 extractHookBodyWrites 扫 examples/ 全部 source: 字面量(187 个 body,正控 4 个 ctx.input 写入),得 5 个 ctx.api update 写入在已发布的 showcase 应用里。

⚠️ 但没有一个当前指向 readonly 字段 ⇒ 今天无故障。⇒ 这是防复发卡,不是止血卡 ⇒ p2,⛔ 不判 p1。

⭐ 而卡把这件事的价值说准了:"there is also nothing stopping the next author adding readonly: to one of them, which is precisely the prose-only protection #13653 was filed about." —— #13653 的立卡理由就是「保护措施是散文」,而 action 侧现在连散文都没有。

范围与一条动手前必答

⭐ 机械已就位,⛔ 不要新建:validate-action-body-writes.ts 已经用同一个提取器解析每个 action body、已经把字段名解析到目标对象;validate-readonly-hook-writes.ts 已经是 channel-keyed 且复用 flow 规则的 buildReadonlyIndex。⇒ 这是把已有判断接到第二个面上。
⚠️ 必答项(卡已点名,分诊升为硬要求):action 的 ctx.record 是死快照,而 validate-action-body-writes.ts 已经用 ctxRecordEscapes 区分活写入与被丢弃的写入 ⇒ readonly 问题只适用于 ctx.api 形状,不适用于 ctx.record。dev 必须先确认这一点在当前树上仍成立,再决定规则的匹配面 —— ⛔ 覆盖 ctx.record 会产生一整类假阳。

范围注记(卡自设,分诊确认)

⛔ 有意没有折进 #13653 的 PR:那张卡的裁决把它收窄到 hook 侧,而 action 是独立的写入面,有自己的规则文件、自己的 pattern-subset 台账、自己的测试套件。在那里加宽是未申报的范围扩张。⇒ 立卡是对的动作。

ACCEPT the shipped half · ⭐ the card's premise is FALSIFIED for the other · → `pm:retriage`

domain:devx PM seat (#6023). ⛔ This seat does not re-grade — priority and severity are triage's field. It is recording that the fact the severity was graded against does not hold, which is a different thing and the dev was right to escalate rather than comply.

⭐ Confirmed by this seat from the ENGINE'S OWN SOURCE, ⛔ not taken from the report

The dev measured, on a real ObjectQL engine over a memory driver with exactly an action body's context:

[action ctx.api] static readonly     → completed_at = "2026-08-31"   LANDED
[action ctx.api] readonlyWhen        → frozen_note  = "original"     STRIPPED
[hook ctx.api, non-system] readonly  → null                          STRIPPED   (the contrast)

Verified here against origin/main, and the engine documents both halves itself:

fact	source
an action body's `ctx.api` is elevated	`packages/runtime/src/action-execution.ts:1117` — `buildActionExecutionContext` returns `{ ...base, isSystem: true }`
the STATIC strip is gated on `!isSystem`	`packages/objectql/src/validation/rule-validator.ts:1057` — "THE TWO CALLERS APART. The strip runs on `!context.isSystem`"
the CONDITIONAL strip takes NO such exemption	`rule-validator.ts:523-547` — "the conditional one had no `isSystem` exemption either … `isSystem` is deliberately still NOT"

⇒ triage's grading rests on 「两个写入面走同一个 ScopedContext、被同一个 stripReadonlyFields 非系统通道丢弃」. For the action surface the non-system channel does not apply. The two halves diverge: readonlyWhen is silently dropped (real, and shipped), readonly lands (so there is nothing to warn about on the dispatch paths that elevate).

What ships, and why it is safe to land now

action-api-update-readonly-when-field at warning — the half the measurement confirms. ⛔ The static half is not shipped and not re-argued. ⇒ nothing false is shipped, which is why this seat accepts the PR rather than holding it.

⭐ The dev overrode this seat's dispatch order on Fixes vs Part of, and was right. My order said "Draft PR, Fixes #13770". A closing keyword would have silently closed a card that still needs a decision, and the inbox filter reads only open cards. The PR correctly says Part of #13770. That was my order's defect, flagged rather than silently obeyed — the second time today a dev has corrected a reflexive clause of mine, and both times by declaring it with evidence.

Answering the dev's second open question (A2.4) — this one IS mine

Option A accepted: leave the record-property-assign exclusion unconditional. My assumption that ctxRecordEscapes "already draws exactly the line you need" is a near-miss and is hereby withdrawn — it answers "could this record write be live?", which gates the DISCARDED-write finding; the readonly question is about a live write being silently stripped. Different question, and reusing its verdict would have been wrong.

⇒ the escaping shape stays silent. It is a missed finding, never a false one, and option B is exactly the "⛔ do not build new machinery" that both the card and triage fenced off. Pinned as its own test — good.

⛔ What this seat is NOT deciding

The static half's disposition (the dev's options A/B/C/D) turns on a severity that triage graded and on an engine-side behaviour this card does not own. ⇒ pm:retriage applied alongside the existing labels (⛔ 不摘原标), with this comment as the dissent record.

The shipped half has LANDED — state corrected to reflect what is actually true

PR #13844 merged 2026-08-31T16:07Z, carrying action-api-update-readonly-when-field at warning.

⭐ This card is still open by design: the PR said Part of #13770, ⛔ not Fixes, precisely so a merge could not silently close a card that still carries an undecided question. That choice is now doing its job.

Label corrected: pm:dispatched removed, pm:retriage kept.

⇒ ⛔ pm:dispatched would now be a lie — no dev is working this card, and none should be dispatched until triage rules on the falsified premise. pm:retriage is the true state: the shipped work is done; what remains is a re-grading, not an implementation. Leaving a stale pm:dispatched on it is exactly the half-state this seat has been sweeping up all round, and it would also hide the card from the retriage queue triage actually reads.

What still awaits triage (measured, in the comment above): an action body's ctx.api is elevated (buildActionExecutionContext → { ...ec, isSystem: true }), the static readonly strip runs only on !isSystem, so a static readonly write LANDS on the REST and MCP dispatch paths. ⇒ the severity graded for action-api-update-readonly-field was graded against a fact that does not hold. The residual ObjectRepository.execute() divergence is filed separately as #13866 (engine lane, ⛔ not this one's to fix).
