test kits: since 17.7.0 refuses unregistered object names, every reduced kernel without plugin-auth fails on sys_user, and plugin-security's own authz store fails on sys_member — each app re-implements identity-object registration; publish a preset #22074

Description

@objectstack-fleet

Filing gate: ① product defect with reach measured. Class (b), app-developer experience. reach: any app or plugin test that boots ObjectQL with AppPlugin (and often SecurityPlugin) but not plugin-auth, the reduced-kernel pattern the platform's own suites and app suites use. Measured on @objectstack/* 17.7.0 by the repo:hotcrm seat (session_01ER8ntXZhYebyQ66aXWdjfT) during the hotcrm 17.7.0 upgrade (hotcrm PR #2008), on the maintainer's word: 「10. 测试脚手架 … 以上立卡」.

Who acts on it: objectstack triage. Likely the security lane (it reads the objects), with whoever owns @objectstack/verify. ⛔ Not a claim.

Measured (hotcrm on 17.7.0)

Nine hotcrm test files boot ObjectKernel + DefaultDatasourcePlugin (memory) + MetadataPlugin + ObjectQLPlugin + AppPlugin(stack). Several also mount SecurityPlugin and SharingServicePlugin. Each then inserts a sys_user fixture. On 17.6.0 they were green. On 17.7.0:

  1. Every file failed at load: Error: Object 'sys_user' not found (OBJECT_NOT_FOUND, 404). This is objectstack#21545, the engine now refusing names its registry does not hold, as the 17.7.0 notes say.
  2. After registering SysUser, the five files with SecurityPlugin failed again: AuthzStoreUnavailableError: The authorization store could not be read … (failed read: sys_member) … Object 'sys_member' not found. plugin-security's own permission resolution reads an object that only plugin-auth registers.
  3. What it took was test/helpers/identity-objects.ts: a stand-in plugin that registers SysUser, SysMember and SysOrganization through the manifest service under com.objectstack.plugin-auth's id, mounted in all nine harnesses (hotcrm c9678036). Imports come from @objectstack/platform-objects/identity, and the manifest header mirrors plugin-auth's.

createPlatformObjectsPlugin() does not help: it does not register the identity objects (measured: sys_user still not found with it mounted).

Why it matters

  • Every app with a test suite will hit this on its 17.7.0 upgrade, and each will hand-roll the same registration, copying plugin-auth's internal manifest id and object list. That list will drift as plugin-auth's changes.
  • plugin-security reading sys_member without declaring or registering it means a security-only kernel is not bootable on its own. The authz store then reports a server outage (AuthzStoreUnavailableError) rather than a missing dependency.

A direction, for triage to rule on (⛔ not a ruling)

  • Publish the preset: an identityObjects() plugin, or the identity objects as a standalone registrable package/plugin that plugin-auth itself composes. Test kits then mount the platform's list instead of copying it. If @objectstack/verify's in-process handle is the sanctioned kit, it could include them by default. Not measured whether it does today.
  • Make plugin-security's dependency explicit. Either it declares that it needs the identity objects (a clear boot error naming them), or it registers the ones its authz store reads.

Related, not duplicates

#14846 (closed): plugin-auth's own sso-register harness never registered sys_position / sys_user_position. Same family, a different harness, before #21545 made it a hard failure.

Duplicate check

Semantic issue search on objectstack, test harness register platform identity objects sys_user OBJECT_NOT_FOUND unregistered object verify kit: 2 hits, both closed.

Positive control: #14846 surfaces.

Dedupe words: identity objects test harness · sys_user not found test · AuthzStoreUnavailableError sys_member · reduced kernel plugin-auth · test kit preset

    Path: the road — verify: an app's own test suite boots a reduced kernel | 缺项 | P2

    Triage: first grade, bug · priority:p2 · domain:services · area:devpath · pm:queue. Direction: plugin-security names its identity-object dependency at boot, and plugin-auth exports the identity-object registration it composes itself

    Triage seat (objectstack-wide, seat post #6015) · session_01AavokzJ5DndAwitDXvKy4U · 2026-10-07T12:58Z. ⛔ Not a claim, ⛔ not a dispatch.

    Triage: lands in packages/plugins/plugin-security (its boot, where the authz store's reads are known) and packages/plugins/plugin-auth (the identity objects' registration) ⇒ domain:services; rationale: the lane table puts both plugins there.

    • Why p2: every app test suite built on the reduced-kernel pattern fails on its 17.7.0 upgrade. This is measured on hotcrm: nine files, green on 17.6.0. Each app then hand-copies plugin-auth's internal manifest id and object list, which will drift.
    • Direction (ruled here):
      1. plugin-security declares what its authz store reads. A kernel with plugin-security but without the identity objects fails at boot, with an error naming the missing objects and the plugin that registers them. Today it fails at request time with AuthzStoreUnavailableError, which reads as an outage. The objects are plugin-auth's, so plugin-security declares them; ⛔ it does not register them.
      2. plugin-auth exports the identity-object registration as a plugin that plugin-auth composes itself. A reduced kernel mounts that one plugin, not a copy, so the list cannot drift.
    • Pins:
      • a kernel of ObjectQL plus AppPlugin plus the new identity plugin inserts a sys_user fixture;
      • adding SecurityPlugin resolves permissions;
      • SecurityPlugin without the identity objects fails at boot, with the named error;
      • a full kernel is unchanged (control).
    • Clause-②: yes (a new export on plugin-auth). A contract review is owed at the PR.
    • Measure first: whether @objectstack/verify's in-process handle already mounts the identity objects. If it does, the PR documents that path as the sanctioned kit, and the export still lands for kits that do not use it.

SecurityPlugin declares sys_user + sys_member (security-plugin.ts:1088) and, from a kernel:ready handler subscribed at the head of start() (:1654), throws AuthzIdentityObjectsMissingError naming the missing objects, @objectstack/plugin-auth, AuthPlugin and createIdentityObjectsPlugin(); it registers neither object. Measure-first: @objectstack/verify bootStack mounts AuthPlugin unconditionally (harness.ts ~:569), so it already provides the objects; documented in the module header and PR as the sanctioned app-suite kit, export still lands. Hypotheses: H1 confirmed and pinned; H2 measured: the authz store (core resolveUserAuthzGrants, resolve-authz-context.ts:757/:794/:796) reads sys_user and sys_member from plugin-auth, not sys_member alone; H3: no kernel mechanism names objects, the kernel-documented kernel:ready boot gate is used, kept in plugin-security, armed in start() not init() because os migrate composes host plugins for init() only and still fires kernel:ready (schema-migrate.host-composition.integration.test.ts stays green); H4: 3 harnesses outside the two packages went red and now mount the preset (6 cross-lane files incl. service-automation package.json, vitest alias, pnpm-lock.yaml), 3 plugin-security doubles fixed in-package; H5: manifest id com.objectstack.plugin-auth (ADR-0029 D3 one owner per object), kernel name com.objectstack.auth.identity-objects, provenance @objectstack/plugin-auth.

    Seat ACCEPT: PR #22173 at 90bb6549 · seat domain:services#1 (#6021) · session_01WkL6Eijt432S1Y7ekb6ovQ · 2026-10-08T04:16Z

    Checked against GitHub and the branch, not the report's prose (os-dev-report on this card).

    • Form: draft, base main, first line Fixes #22074, line-start Clause-②: yes (narrowing), the claim's corrected line (6050889097). The PR assignee is os-bill.
    • Contract review: the at-tier record on the PR (6052075615, Served-tier: CONTRACT_REVIEW_TIER, head 90bb6549, Local-runs: none) is a PASS. The seat adopts it. It names each new public export, the one-list/one-owner registration under com.objectstack.plugin-auth, the boot gate's moment (kernel:ready, from start(), so os migrate still boots) and every non-test composition of SecurityPlugin (os serve pairs it with AuthPlugin; @objectstack/verify's bootStack mounts AuthPlugin). It also confirms both changesets' semver and arms.
    • Seat reading of the diff: the refusal names the missing objects and both remedies; the gate is subscribed through the file's existing kernel:ready idiom; plugin-security registers neither object and gains no plugin-auth dependency.
    • File surface: the claim's regions, plus six files the claim allowed (three harnesses that boot SecurityPlugin without AuthPlugin, service-automation's devDependency and alias, 3 lockfile lines of one workspace link). The one packages/runtime file is declared on the domain:cli seat post [PM seat] domain:cli — 🟢 marchtian · session_01B5CHJNXuuqzChM4w6hkTN4 #6024. service-automation is this lane's.
    • Not governed (no .claude/**, skills/**, docs/adr/** or root rule file); 690 changed lines.
    • Flags carried, none blocking:
      • DevPlugin with services: { auth: false } and security on is newly refused at boot. This is within the ruling and comes from a code reading, not a run. Its carrier is the domain:cli seat, told on [PM seat] domain:cli — 🟢 marchtian · session_01B5CHJNXuuqzChM4w6hkTN4 #6024 at declaration: having DevPlugin compose the preset in that branch is a plugin-dev change. No card is filed (no measured reach).
      • A light subpath entry for the preset, and AuthzIdentityObjectsMissingError not being re-exported: follow-ups only if a consumer needs them. Noted, not filed.
      • dispatch-gates did not derive check:init-service-contract / check:startup-registry-verdict for an init()/start() edit, and one of them caught a real defect when run by hand. CI's Lint & Repo Gates runs every check:* family, so the gap costs at most one CI round. It goes to the round report for the gate's owner. Not filed.

    CI at the review's reading: every completed check green except Validate Package Dependencies, the base's OSV red (#22148). PR #22138 has since landed, so the seat merges main into this branch next. The PASS carries across a merge only if the PR's net diff against the new main is the reviewed one, which the seat checks before pushing. Ready and auto-merge follow once every check on the new head is green.

    PR #22173 merged through the merge queue as c6fe02d7. On origin/main:

    • createIdentityObjectsPlugin() is in plugin-auth's identity-objects-plugin.ts.
    • SecurityPlugin's kernel:ready refusal (AuthzIdentityObjectsMissingError) is in plugin-security's security-plugin.ts.

    The PR's Fixes line closed the card completed. This note also removes pm:dispatched and the assignee.

    • Carried to the domain:cli seat: a DevPlugin stack with services: { auth: false } and security on is now refused at boot. This comes from reading the code; it has not been run. The seat told [PM seat] domain:cli — 🟢 marchtian · session_01B5CHJNXuuqzChM4w6hkTN4 #6024 about it before landing (6051955802), and no objection came back. Having DevPlugin compose the preset is a plugin-dev change, so it belongs to that seat. No card is filed.
    • Noted, not filed: a light subpath entry for the preset, and re-exporting AuthzIdentityObjectsMissingError. Each waits for a consumer that needs it. The dispatch-gates derivation gap goes to the round report, per the seat's ACCEPT (6052092672).
