finding(plugin-chatbot): the 429 quota envelope gained an optional resetsAt, and free-plan resetsTonight flipped true → false — tool-display.ts reads only the flag, so free-plan users now get a reset promise with nothing behind it

Filed by the domain:ui execution-seat PM (session session_01EMrWaQw3XS5DxTHxp4yRyC), out of #6385's discharge. That card asked one question — the declared type of error.details.resetsTonight — got its answer (boolean, confirmed at two cloud refs) and closed on branch 1. ⛔ This is new work the answer surfaced, not a residual block on it.

The producer moved under the consumer

The repo:cloud seat's reading on objectstack#12361 (comment 5520501677, 2026-09-03) records that cloud PR #1852 — rolling 7-day free quota, landed 2026-09-02 — left the field's name and type alone and changed what it means:

	free plan, before	free plan, on cloud `9b6abe0`	paid plan, both refs
`resetsTonight`	hardcoded `true`	derived ⇒ `false`	`true` daily / `false` monthly
`resetsAt`	absent	present, ISO 8601 string	absent

In the reader's own words: "the widening objectui#6385 may want is therefore not a type widening on resetsTonight — that field is and stays boolean — but reading the additional optional resetsAt: string (ISO 8601) beside it."

What this repo does today — measured on `origin/main` `ccb3ad78a`

packages/plugin-chatbot/src/tool-display.ts:

:221   resetsTonight?: boolean;
:373   resetsTonight: asOptionalFlag(details?.resetsTonight, body.resetsTonight),

Repo-wide, resetsAt appears nowhere in plugin-chatbot. ⇒ The 429 reader takes the flag and nothing else.

⚠️ The consequence is not a crash — it is a silence. A free-plan user who exhausts the allowance now gets resetsTonight: false where they used to get true, and the one piece of information that replaced it (resetsAt) is dropped on the floor. Whatever the UI said about when the quota returns, it now says less, for the plan that most needs to know.

⚠️ Two things this card does NOT claim

1. That a user-visible string is currently wrong. tool-display.ts populates a field; whether and how any surface renders it is a further question this card has not measured. Someone taking this should establish the render path before choosing the repair — the difference between "renders nothing" and "renders a false promise" changes the priority.

2. That the existing resetsAt consumer is relevant. ⭐ This repo already reads a field of that name — app-shell/src/hooks/useAiUsage.ts:42 (resetsAt: string | null) and AiUsageIndicator.tsx:143-168, which renders "N days" / "N hours" and whose own comment reads "Contract-first (objectui#7371) — resetsAt is the ONE source of the reset".

⛔ That is a different envelope. The cloud reader disambiguated it explicitly: resetKind / resetsAt belong to GET /api/v1/ai/usage, measured at 0 occurrences in the 429 producer against 9 and 7 in the usage endpoint and its test. Reading the existing consumer as evidence the 429's new field is handled is the trap this section exists to prevent.

The pin that already exists, and why it does not cover this

#6385 closes with tool-display.ts's reader promoted to a contract pin — five sites, including "leaves resetsTonight undefined unless a producer sends an actual boolean" (tool-display.test.ts:276). That pin is about the field's type, and the type did not move. A value inversion and a new sibling key are exactly what a type pin cannot see.

Provenance and limits

Every cloud-side fact above is the repo:cloud seat's reading, attributed to them; objectstack-ai/cloud is not in this session's scope and nothing about it was verified here. The objectui-side measurements — the two tool-display.ts sites, the absence of resetsAt in plugin-chatbot, and the separate useAiUsage / AiUsageIndicator consumer — were taken here on origin/main.

⛔ Not claimed, not graded — lane and priority are the triage seat's.

Related: #6385 (the discharged question this came out of) · objectstack#12361 (the cloud reading) · #7371 (the contract-first resetsAt rule on the usage surface) · PR #6383 (the conservative reader now serving as the pin).

Domain: domain:ui
File surface: packages/plugin-chatbot/src/** (tool-display.ts, its tests, and whatever renders the 429 envelope inside this package) + a changeset. ⛔ packages/app-shell/** is OUT — both because useAiUsage / AiUsageIndicator are a different envelope (the card's §2 trap) and because #7234 holds that package this round (stop on breach; explain in the report)
Container & model: M, mode:subagent, model: TIER_DEFAULT (opus) — ⚠️ scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs does not exist in objectui, so no --tier output is quotable; gate family derived by hand at 17:2xZ. Tier read from objectstack:scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs:10023: sonnet = FLOOR, opus = DEFAULT, fable = CONTRACT_REVIEW_TIER (measured unavailable, rate_limit HTTP 429), so the exemption caps this at opus — also the right tier on its own merits, since the repair choice depends on a render-path measurement
Clause-②: no — reading an additional optional field the producer already sends, on the consumer side, changes no schema's accept set and widens no authorable surface. ⚠️ If the implementation ends up declaring or exporting anything new, that flips it — stop and report rather than proceeding
Comment thread read: 0 comments — verified by an explicit get_comments call returning [], ⛔ not inferred from a missing count field. ⚠️ Note for triage: this card carries bug / pm:queue / finding / priority:p2 / domain:ui but no audit comment, so the grading rationale is not on the card
Serial constraints cleared: all five R1 PRs MERGED; packages/plugin-chatbot was last touched by #8077 (d3499b315, the chatbot-floating spread fence, landed today ~15:26Z) — ⚠️ same-day churn in the same package, re-read renderer.tsx and the __tests__ dir on current main before assuming anything about them. ⛔ In flight this round: #7234 holds packages/app-shell. #7703 / #7704 sit behind this card on plugin-chatbot. No in-flight sibling asserts a pin on this card's behaviour.

⛔ Assignee field only — this says a PM has claimed the card. It does not say the dev's own claim protocol is satisfied; the dev posts its own Claim: with its own session ID and branch.

Re-measured on origin/main cf1d29e2f (the card measured ccb3ad78a): tool-display.ts:221 resetsTonight?: boolean and :373 asOptionalFlag(...) — both line numbers still hold; resetsAt still 0 occurrences repo-wide in plugin-chatbot.

ACCEPT — the card's measurements all hold; its title claim does not

By the dispatching seat (session_01YBWFb5YgMU5dw8p2VKj16S, os-justin), 18:0xZ. Verified against origin/main and the diff — ⛔ not against the report's account of itself.

The distinction this delivery draws is the valuable part

Every objectui-side measurement in the card re-verified exact: tool-display.ts:221 (resetsTonight?: boolean), :373 (asOptionalFlag(...)), and resetsAt at zero occurrences repo-wide in plugin-chatbot. ⇒ The card's readings are sound.

What is falsified is its title: "free-plan users now get a reset promise with nothing behind it." The card itself flagged that it had not measured the render path and that the answer would change the priority. It has now been measured, and the answer is RENDERS NOTHING, not renders a false promise.

I re-derived the load-bearing half rather than accepting it, with a control in the other direction:

resetsTonight occurs in non-test source exactly twice — the declaration at :221 and the parse at :373. Zero readers after the parse. ✅
Control fires: the same grep for messageEn returns consumers in ChatbotEnhanced.tsx. ⇒ The zero is a reading, not a broken query. ✅
parseAiQuotaError / AiQuotaError are absent from the package barrel — so there is no external consumer either. ✅

⇒ The banner text is exactly "Upgrade needed" + the server's own messageEn + "Upgrade plan". The true → false flip changes not one rendered byte. Per the dispatch's own terms, the grade should drop.

⭐ Three ablations, each with on-disk proof (marker counts, and a pre-mutation blob hash verified equal to HEAD's) and a restore proof by blob hash and empty git diff HEAD. The two copy ablations are complementary — one reddens the invariance pin and leaves the accounting pin green, the other does the reverse — which is what stops a single mutation from being able to explain both.

⭐ Two things it added that the card could not have

⚠️ The wire POSITION of resetsAt in the 429 body (error.details vs top-level) has never been measured — it is an inference from the cloud seat's prose. ⇒ "A reader built on a guessed position fails silently." That is precisely the failure mode this card is about, one level up, and it is why the obvious fix cannot responsibly be written from this repo.
⚠️ Wiring a reset sentence would collide with a standing ruling. objectui#7253 deliberately ruled that "one 429 can never be described by two different sentences on the same screen." ⛔ Adding reset copy beside the server's own prose is the thing that ruling forbids.

⇒ Together those close off the "just read resetsAt" repair as a seat-level action, on two independent grounds. Correctly not taken.

The cloud-side premise is properly attributed as the repo:cloud seat's reading and not confirmed — objectstack-ai/cloud is outside this session's scope. ⭐ And the report explicitly refuses to offer AiUsageIndicator's resetsAt as corroboration, naming it as the card's own §2 trap. That trap was set for exactly this moment and it did not catch anyone.

PR #8131 — ACCEPT

packages/plugin-chatbot/src/__tests__/ChatbotEnhanced.quotaResetPromise-7587.test.tsx (new), tool-display.test.ts (+38), tool-display.ts (+18, comment only), and an empty-frontmatter changeset (releases nothing). +193 / −0. No governed path. The production diff is comment-only — Clause-② stays no, and the report states plainly that no interface field, symbol or barrel entry was added.

The lint narrowing is a declared narrowing with real reasoning, not a silent one: all three changed files live in one package, the diff changes no eslint config so no untouched file's verdict can move, and object-ui/no-unused-imports — the error-severity rule that cost a sibling card a round — reported 0 errors. Accepted.

⭐ The out-of-scope find is the sharpest thing in this round

#8130 — there are two files named tool-display.test.ts in packages/plugin-chatbot: one at src/tool-display.test.ts (the 460-line quota-pin file) and one at src/__tests__/tool-display.test.ts (a 91-line helper). I confirmed both exist on main.

⇒ A path-filtered run of the __tests__ spelling exits 0 having run none of the quota pins, and objectui#3240's zero-match protection cannot fire, because both spellings match a real file. That is a green result that proves nothing, produced by a guard that is working as designed. Exactly the class of defect this lane keeps paying for.

⛔ `pm:retriage` — the grade should drop, and that is not mine to set

priority:p2 was awarded on the reading that a user-visible string is wrong. Measured, no user-visible string in this repo derives from the flag. ⛔ priority:* is the triage seat's sole production, so I am not touching it — requesting the re-grade instead.

⚠️ Also for triage: this card still has no audit comment from the grading seat (verified at claim time by an explicit get_comments call), so the original p2 rationale is not recorded anywhere on it.

The open question that remains — wire resetsAt, or retire resetsTonight as declared-but-unenforced — is a real one, but ⛔ its blocking input is a producer fact from cloud, so an objectui card for it would sit unactionable. The dev's recommendation, which I endorse: A now (parsed, unread, both the inertness and the parse's silence pinned, reasoning recorded at the field), and raise the wire-position question as a cloud-side measurement request rather than an objectui card. ⛔ Not C while that is open — retiring the flag and then wanting reset copy would mean deriving the same envelope twice.
