[handoff] repo:objectui PM seat — board state and standing doctrine as of 2026-08-16 ~02:15Z #4754

Handoff from the outgoing repo:objectui PM seat (session session_01RnQd8iMMUwXQEV1crFmQiQ), wrapped up on the maintainer's instruction (quota). The incoming seat should treat this card as the starting index; everything below is verifiable on GitHub and supersedes nothing — cards and their comment threads remain the source of truth.

Board state (all verified at wrap-up)

• pm:queue / findings pool / in-flight devs: all ZERO. No PR is awaiting review, flip, or closeout. No dev worktree carries unpushed work owed to any card.
• Session-day ledger: 63 PRs merged, zero red merges, zero wrongful closes (fix(app-shell,data-objectstack): system view override rows no longer masquerade as saved views #4713 … fix(components,i18n): translate the config panel footer's Save / Discard #4753). Every closed card's closed_by_pull_requests was verified exact at closeout.
• Self-armed timers from the outgoing session: all fired or deleted; none pending.

Decision box — 10 items awaiting the maintainer, with dispatch plans pre-recorded

Archived findings with re-grade triggers (event-driven, do not patrol)

• [finding] ForgotPasswordForm's {email} marker match is substring-based — a stray legacy {{email}} in a caller-supplied label produces stray braces around the address, not a graceful fallback #4716 ForgotPasswordForm marker substring — ruled A (leave); triggers on an external consumer report or any touch of that marker logic.
• Address part order follows the reader's locale because nothing carries the address's own country #4738 address order follows reader locale — triggers on demand signal; any countryCode channel is an upstream spec question (file to objectstack, don't dispatch).
• components: ConfigPanelRenderer's undoLabel / redoLabel default to English — dormant today, and #4750 records the opposite #4752 ConfigPanelRenderer undo/redo English defaults — dormant; triggers when a caller wires onUndo/onRedo or common.undo/common.redo appears.

Standing doctrine this seat accumulated (each learned the hard way; details in the linked threads)

1. No skip-changeset mechanism: the label exists in the registry but no gate consumes it — never apply it (three corrected incidents 2026-08-15; root cause filed as objectstack#8915; also objectstack#8891 for publish-preflight).
2. objectstack findings are file-only from this seat — never claim/dispatch cross-lane.
3. Landing flow: ACCEPT (reviewer-of-record, verified against GitHub not the report) → six gates (Lint + Type Check + Test shards 1-4) success pinned at the PR head → draft:false → auto-merge → merged event → closeout (closed_by exact, strip pm:dispatched).
4. Deletion-class PRs: PM independently re-tests every reference face on origin/main before ACCEPT, commands re-run from the PR body.
5. Absence-claim discipline: never conclude absence from a truncated listing (head -N) or an unverified scope (bad pathspec) — every absence claim needs a positive control first (two corrected PM errors on 2026-08-15, on the record in PR fix(fields,i18n): translate AddressField sub-labels, drop US placeholders, localize read-only part order #4740/chore(i18n): delete the dead configPanel.* and renderer.* namespaces from the ten packs (#4746) #4747 reviews).
6. Hot-file serial queue: same-file cards dispatch serially (e.g. ListView.convertFilterGroupToAST drops a fresh Is null / Is not null row as incomplete, so the list filter silently applies nothing #4744 after PR fix(components,fields,plugin-list): withhold exists/notExists from the consumers whose dialects cannot express them #4745); ten-pack edits in different namespaces may run in parallel with rebase-on-conflict instruction.
7. Test invocation: repo-root path-filter form only (pnpm exec vitest run packages/<pkg>/); pnpm --filter <pkg> test is the documented false-green cwd trap, mechanically blocked.
8. Umbrella cards (Part of #NNNN + Fixes #<sub-card>): verify the umbrella stays open at closeout.
9. i18n: repo-wide single-brace convention ({{x}} only i18next holes with args); key-choice by measurement (reuse when packs agree 10/10, author new when scoped spellings diverge — PR fix(components,i18n): translate the config panel footer's Save / Discard #4753 models it); value-to-key lookup tables blind BOTH i18n gates — use literal t() builders (PR fix(plugin-dashboard,i18n): translate the dashboard config sidebar (#4748) #4751 models it).
10. Known flake classes (chart-drill, plugin-dashboard families) were closed at source 2026-08-15; a red shard should still be judged flake-vs-real before rerun, with the criterion recorded first.

Ops notes

• All agents share the GitHub identity yinlianghui — a claim is assign plus a claim comment with the claiming session's ID and branch; re-read comments before writing code.
• The shared account rate-limits under load: back off and retry; a 502 is retryable.
• Issue comments do not generate wake events (only PR subscriptions do) — decision-box rulings are found by patrol reads (list_issues with labels=needs-user-decision, compare updated_at), not by waiting.
