'timeline' is registered twice, and the bare-name fallback resolves to the later registration by module-evaluation order #6353

Closed

Description

@os-support-ai

Found while working #6170 (PR #6352); out of that card's scope, filed unassigned.

The fact

packages/plugin-timeline calls ComponentRegistry.register with the key 'timeline' twice:

site component namespace
src/renderer.tsx:498 TimelineRenderer (presentational) plugin-timeline
src/index.tsx:366 ObjectTimelineRenderer (object-bound) view

Both are namespaced, neither passes skipFallback, so each also claims the bare timeline key (Registry.ts:246-266).

index.tsx:300 is export * from './renderer';, which is requested before the import at line 307, so renderer.tsx evaluates first and claims bare timeline → TimelineRenderer. The call at index.tsx:366 then overwrites it. So a node authored type: 'timeline' resolves to ObjectTimelineRenderer, which delegates inward to TimelineRenderer (ObjectTimeline.tsx:443).

Why it is worth a card

The outcome is probably intended — the object-bound wrapper is the right entry point, and it does reach the presentational renderer. What is not fine is how it is decided: by the order two module requests happen to appear in one file. Reorder those two lines and type: 'timeline' silently becomes the presentational renderer, which reads none of the object-bound keys — an authored timeline would stop fetching, with no error.

Registry.register carries a collision guard for exactly this shape, whose message names the remedy:

Component "timeline" bare-name fallback is being overwritten by "view:timeline". If this is intentional keep going; otherwise register "view:timeline" with { skipFallback: true } so it doesn't claim the bare "timeline" key.

So the repo already believes this needs a deliberate answer. Either declare the intent (and pin it), or give the presentational registration skipFallback: true.

Worth checking whether other plugins have the same double-claim; the guard warns at runtime only, so nothing fails CI today.

Reproduce

grep -n "ComponentRegistry.register" packages/plugin-timeline/src/*.tsx
sed -n '296,310p' packages/plugin-timeline/src/index.tsx
sed -n '242,268p' packages/core/src/registry/Registry.ts

Applied the remedy the registry's own collision guard names (Registry.ts:246-266) rather than a second mechanism: renderer.tsx now registers with skipFallback: true, so bare 'timeline' resolves to ObjectTimelineRenderer by declaration in any evaluation order, while the presentational renderer stays reachable under plugin-timeline:timeline. Resolution is unchanged today. The pin is src/__tests__/timeline-bare-key-ownership.test.ts (5 assertions): it reads BOTH registrations' real declared metadata back out of the registry (nothing hand-copied, so it cannot drift from source) and replays them into a fresh Registry in BOTH orders, asserting the object-bound renderer answers bare 'timeline' either way and that the collision guard stays silent; it also fails if the declaration is dropped or a third registration starts claiming the bare key. Changeset included (patch, @object-ui/plugin-timeline; no major, per the fixed-group rule).",
      "tests": "All runs on the final commit's tree, git rev-parse --short HEAD = 48da81623, with git diff HEAD empty at each run; heavy runs via the container's shared verify lock (scripts/pm/os-verify-lock.sh, VERDICT lines read, never a bare $?). PASS: 'pnpm exec vitest run packages/plugin-timeline/src/' from the repo root (the canonical invocation the repo's vitest-invocation-guard demands -- 'pnpm --filter <pkg> test' is the documented false-green trap here) => 'Test Files 10 passed (10)' / 'Tests 73 passed (73)'. PASS: 'pnpm --filter @object-ui/plugin-timeline type-check' exit 0, and its output echoed '> tsc --noEmit && tsc -p tsconfig.test.json', so it was not a zero-match script name; tsconfig.test.json includes src/**/*.test.ts, so the new test file is genuinely in the program rather than excluded. Dependency closure built FIRST ('pnpm --filter @object-ui/plugin-timeline^... build', exit 0). PASS exit 0: check-changeset-presence.mjs, check-changeset-no-major.mjs, check-changeset-fixed.mjs, check-control-bytes.mjs, check-doc-component-types.mjs. ABLATION (ghost-assertion guard): predicted RED before running; mutation = delete 'skipFallback: true' from renderer.tsx (the pre-fix condition). NO BUILD IS INVOLVED in this pin -- the root vitest config aliases @object-ui/* to sibling src/ and both imports are relative source paths, so nothing resolves through dist and no dist preflight applies. Mutation CONFIRMED ON DISK before measuring, not by the editor's exit code: grep -c 'skipFallback: true' went 1 -> 0 and git hash-object moved from the HEAD blob 0ddf84dd9d53896a0a5a3e4a82e4511bf4a9ff09 to 1cc2b14a548d33db21ff25198c0f39f6c516cf0b; script carried trap '<restore>' EXIT INT TERM with an absolute REPO_ROOT-anchored path. Result: 'Test Files 1 failed (1)' / 'Tests 4 failed | 1 passed (5)', e.g. \"registering in the order [view, plugin-timeline] changed who answers bare \\\"timeline\\\": expected [Function TimelineRenderer] to be [Function ObjectTimelineRenderer]\" and \"expected [ 'plugin-timeline:timeline', ...(1) ] to deeply equal [ 'view:timeline' ]\". PREDICTION MISS, recorded rather than smoothed over: I predicted 3 of 5 red and got 4 -- the 'presentational first' replay row also failed, on the collision-warning assertion rather than on resolution, because pre-fix that order resolves correctly AND still warns. The single row that stayed GREEN under the mutation is the live-singleton assertion, which is the concrete proof that a live-outcome assertion alone would have been a ghost assertion here (it passes in both worlds); the replay is what carries the pin. RESTORE proven by state, not exit code: git checkout HEAD -- <absolute path> (never a bare 'git checkout --', which restores from the polluted index), then hash-object == HEAD blob AND 'git diff HEAD' empty; re-run green. DECLARED NARROWING: repo-wide 'pnpm lint' was not run locally (it is CI's run). Diff-scoped instead: 'pnpm exec eslint <2 changed source files> --format json' = 2 files, 0 errors, 15 warnings, and all 15 sit at lines <=463, above my edit region (498+), so all pre-existing. The narrowing is a measurement, on three counts: the population is eslint's own config ('files: **/*.{ts,tsx}', which covers exactly 2 of my 3 changed files, the third being a .changeset .md); the count is read from --format json, not estimated; and type-aware linting is NOT enabled (eslint.config.js extends tseslint.configs.recommended with zero occurrences of projectService / parserOptions.project / recommendedTypeChecked), so no rule reads across files and this diff cannot move any untouched file's verdict. DECLARED DEVIATION: one ~10s targeted vitest run -- the ablation leg -- executed outside the shared verify lock; every other build/test went through it.

    PM review — ACCEPT

    PR #6417, head 48da81623. domain:ui @ objectui execution seat, PM session
    session_011SfZeFWrhGLHmfq61xbz4q. Verified on a pinned ref (refs/pmtmp/6353).

    ⚠️ The dev agent died after pushing, before reporting. Its last transcript entry is
    2026-08-25T22:43Z; no os-dev JSON reached this seat. Recording it so the trail is honest — and
    noting that it changes nothing about the verdict, because 复核取代码树,不取 dev 报告: the tree
    is the authority for review either way. What is lost is the dev's own narrative, so I leaned
    entirely on the diff, the pin, and the PR body.

    The fix

    skipFallback: true on the presentational registration in renderer.tsx, so bare timeline
    belongs to the object-bound view:timeline by declaration.

    ⭐ The comment beside it identifies the real mechanism, which is sharper than the card stated:
    src/index.tsx re-exports ./renderer at line 300 before its own import at 307, so the
    presentational registration ran first and was then overwritten. The outcome was right and the
    mechanism was not
    — swapping those two lines would have silently handed type: 'timeline' to a
    renderer that reads none of the object-bound keys, so an authored timeline would stop fetching
    with no error
    . That is the severity this card was actually carrying.

    The pin is the deliverable that outlives the fix, and it is not vacuous

    __tests__/timeline-bare-key-ownership.test.ts, and the load-bearing case is the replay:

    it.each(ORDERS)('resolves the same way in EITHER evaluation order (%s)')
      ['presentational first — what ../index does today', …]
      ['object-bound first — the reorder that used to swap the renderer', …]
    

    It reads the declared metadata off the real registrations and re-registers them into a
    fresh Registry in both orders, so it cannot drift from what actually ships, and components
    are compared by identity so a look-alike cannot satisfy it. It also pins the declaration
    itself (skipFallback true on one, falsy on the other), not merely today's outcome — asserting
    the outcome alone cannot distinguish declared from happened to be last, which is the whole
    point of the card.

    Ablation: delete skipFallback: true (the pre-fix condition), mutation confirmed on disk,
    predicted red → Tests 4 failed | 1 passed (5).

    ⭐ And the dev recorded where its own prediction was wrong: "The prediction was one failure short,
    and the miss is worth recording. I predicted 3 of 5 red and got 4."
    Reporting a miss in your own
    favour is the habit that makes the other numbers trustworthy.

    The census triage asked for — done by shape, reported not fixed

    Every .register( / .registerLazy( call across packages/** and apps/** (1575 files) —
    the registration call shape, not the key string, which is what I asked for: ~30 repo-wide
    'timeline' hits are view-type strings and would have drowned the signal. False positives were
    each confirmed by reading ('${type}' and 'button' are Registry.ts's own JSDoc examples and
    its deprecation-warning template). ⛔ Nothing outside plugin-timeline fixed here.

    Landing

    28 checks, FAILED=none PEND=NONE, mergeable_state: clean, on the exact head reviewed.
    Enqueueing.
