finding(apps/site): the catalog gallery registers object-grid only transitively — registerCatalogBlocks.ts never imports @object-ui/plugin-grid #6025
Description
Found while implementing #5856. Filed unassigned, not claiming. Observation, not a live defect — everything renders correctly today.
What was measured
apps/site/app/components/registerCatalogBlocks.ts registers the plugin blocks the catalog gallery renders, as eleven side-effect imports:
plugin-dashboard plugin-charts plugin-calendar plugin-chatbot plugin-editor
plugin-gantt plugin-kanban plugin-map plugin-markdown plugin-timeline
plugin-view
@object-ui/plugin-grid is not among them, and examples/schema-catalog/test/catalog-gallery-render.test.tsx mirrors that list exactly in HOST_PACKAGES — a parity case at the end of the file fails if the two drift.
Yet object-grid resolves in both. Measured under the test harness on d2fb6efb4:
ComponentRegistry.get('object-grid') -> truthy
The reason is a transitive import: packages/plugin-view/src/ObjectView.tsx:37 does import { ObjectGrid } from '@object-ui/plugin-grid', which loads that package's entry module, which runs its three ComponentRegistry.register(...) calls — including object-grid and import-wizard.
So the gallery's registration of object-grid is a side effect of plugin-view needing the component, not a declared intent of the host.
Why it is worth recording
Before #5856 nothing depended on it, because plugin-grid's two catalog entries authored no object-grid node at all — they were hand-built card layouts. As of #5856 both entries are real object-grid nodes, so the gallery now genuinely depends on this transitive path. If plugin-view ever stopped importing ObjectGrid — a plausible refactor, since it is a component import rather than a plugin dependency — those tiles would paint the OBJUI-001 "Unknown component type" panel, and the reason would be several files away from the symptom.
Also note registerCatalogBlocks.ts's own header describes its imports as "exactly the packages that census resolves to — not a curated list", which reads as a complete statement of what the gallery registers. It is complete for the census it was written against; it is no longer a complete statement of what the gallery depends on.
Partial mitigation already in place
#5856's PR adds a case that asserts the type is registered before its render case runs, with a message naming the transitive path, so a break surfaces as a named failure instead of an unexplained red tile. That makes the failure legible; it does not make the registration declared.
Possible fixes, not chosen here
- Add
import '@object-ui/plugin-grid';toregisterCatalogBlocks.tsand to the test'sHOST_PACKAGES(they must move together — the parity case enforces it), plus@object-ui/plugin-gridas a devDependency ofexamples/schema-catalog. Straightforward, and makes the dependency say what it is. - Leave it transitive and rely on the new registration assertion.
Not done in #5856 because apps/site/** was outside that card's declared file surface, and it is a separate question from whether the entries author the right type.
Triage note
Severity left to triage. Nothing is broken; this is a latent fragility plus a header that is now slightly stale.

Triage (session
session_01LrqnyLhY3kYBBRird4peBT, 2026-08-24):finding+domain:ui(fix lands inapps/site+ the mirrored test list). Real but latent — nothing broken today, and #5856's registration assertion already makes the failure legible if the transitive path ever breaks. Grading note for first-touch: fix 1 (declare the import on both sides of the parity pair + devDependency) is small and mechanical; if promoted, it is an S-tier card.Generated by Claude Code

Concentrated triage batch:
finding→pm:queue+domain:ui, Task, S — the catalog gallery resolvesobject-gridonly through a transitive import, one refactor away from a silent gallery hole, and the test'sHOST_PACKAGESmirror pins the incomplete list as correct. Fix: add the explicit@object-ui/plugin-gridside-effect import toregisterCatalogBlocks.tsand extend the parity case so the mirror counts it; zero rendering change today, measured.Generated by Claude Code

The fold ruling, its five gates and its exclusion list are recorded once on the chain head — see #6167. Summary of what binds here: ⛔ only
plugin-grid's registration line is in scope on this card. The other 12plugin-*categories are explicitly excluded — the #6174 pin generalised to all 13, but onlyplugin-formcarries ledgered debt, and "same category shape" is not "same defect".This card's own judge, independently checkable:
object-gridis registered declaratively inregisterCatalogBlocks.ts— not transitively throughpackages/plugin-view/src/ObjectView.tsx:37— and theHOST_PACKAGESparity case counts it. It gets its own commit on the shared branch and its ownFixesline on the PR.Stale-premise check — run against

Why this card is being implemented on #6167's branch
Family dispatch, one branch and one PR for both cards. This card's fix (declare
@object-ui/plugin-gridinregisterCatalogBlocks.tsinstead of resolvingobject-gridtransitively throughpackages/plugin-view/src/ObjectView.tsx) and #6167's fix (add@object-ui/plugin-form, re-seat the twoplugin-formcatalog entries as realobject-formnodes, delete the twoOWN_PLUGIN_DEBTlines) touch the same import list and the same mirroredHOST_PACKAGESarray — a parity case incatalog-gallery-render.test.tsxasserts the two move together — and they share onecheck:eager-closurebudget measurement. Split across two branches they would conflict by construction.The two legs get one commit each so they stay independently reviewable, and separate judges so it is visible that both landed. The PR body carries
Fixes #6167andFixes #6025on separate lines.Assignees and labels untouched.
