plugin-approvals: sys_approval_request declares its per-caller viewer block under attachedOnRead, with a conformance test against attachViewers (#22211 ruling A, plugin-approvals half)

Filing gate: ③ a maintainer-directed task. This is the plugin-approvals build card that the ruling 6070963704 on #22211 names: "plugin-approvals (the declaration and the conformance test)". Filed by the domain:spec seat 2 (seat post #18549, session_01DhTqaEHqPVSVnAkjG3jywn). ⛔ Not graded or routed here; ⛔ not a claim.

Blocked-by: #22386

What this card builds (quoted from the ruling)

"sys_approval_request declares viewer with can_act, can_override and is_submitter, all boolean", under the object-level key that the spec card adds (working name attachedOnRead).
"a plugin-approvals conformance test pins that the keys attachViewers emits equal the keys sys_approval_request declares" (ADR-0049: a declaration has a reader from landing day).
The verdict this card turns. validateStackExpressions together with runAuthoringRules('build') refuses the object's 8 action visible predicates today, with unknown field `viewer` on `sys_approval_request` (measured by finding(lint): the object save door gives no build verdict on validation conditions, field-rule slots (requiredWhen etc.), option visibleWhen or action predicates; os build refuses them, a metadata save stores them (#22019's sibling) #22032's pass-4 dev, 6053764412). They then pass, and a misspelt leaf is still refused.
Changeset: @objectstack/plugin-approvals patch.

Where (at `origin/main`, read at filing)

packages/plugins/plugin-approvals/src/sys-approval-request.object.ts. The 8 predicates read record.viewer.*, and the design note sits at about :388–:418.
packages/plugins/plugin-approvals/src/approval-service.ts. attachViewers is at about :7018, called from listRequests (:6817) and getRequest (:6934) only.

⛔ Not this card

No other read attachment (decision_progress, pending_approver_groups, the flow steps). The ruling: they "may be declared under the same key when a predicate first reads them; this ruling requires none of them".
No change to the per-caller viewer semantics ([P3] approvals: server-computed viewer capability on getRequest (precise approver gating for declared actions) #3310, settled).

Closing

This card's PR carries Fixes #22211 beside its own Fixes line. The defect closes when the 8 shipped predicates pass the validator.

Triage: lands in packages/plugins/plugin-approvals (sys-approval-request.object.ts and a conformance test against attachViewers) ⇒ domain:services. Rationale: plugin-approvals belongs to that lane.

Execution of ruling 6070963704. It declares viewer (can_act, can_override, is_submitter, all boolean) under the key spec(data): ObjectSchema.attachedOnRead — an object declares the blocks a service attaches per caller on read, and the validator judges record.<block>.<leaf> against it (#22211 ruling A, spec half) #22386 adds. The conformance test pins that the keys attachViewers emits equal the declared ones (ADR-0049: a declaration has a reader from landing day).
Blocked on spec(data): ObjectSchema.attachedOnRead — an object declares the blocks a service attaches per caller on read, and the validator judges record.<block>.<leaf> against it (#22211 ruling A, spec half) #22386 (the key does not exist yet), as the card's own line says.
Closes plugin-approvals: sys_approval_request's 8 action visible predicates read record.viewer, a block the service attaches on read, and the shared expression validator refuses all 8 as an undeclared field #22211 too: the PR carries Fixes #22211. The pin is that the 8 shipped visible predicates pass the validator, and a misspelt leaf is still refused.
Why p3: the same grade as plugin-approvals: sys_approval_request's 8 action visible predicates read record.viewer, a block the service attaches on read, and the shared expression validator refuses all 8 as an undeclared field #22211.

Note from domain:spec seat 2 (seat post #18549) · session_01DhTqaEHqPVSVnAkjG3jywn · 2026-10-09T04:33Z. ⛔ Not a claim. It is a scope note for whoever claims this card, recorded so the card carries it.

The conformance test checks keys and value types. #22386, the spec half and this card's blocker, declares each block's leaves with a value type (number | text | boolean | date). In that card, the shared validator judges leaf names only. So under ADR-0049, the declared types' reader is this card's conformance test:

the keys attachViewers emits equal the keys sys_approval_request declares under attachedOnRead.viewer;
the runtime type of each emitted value matches its declared type (can_act, can_override and is_submitter, all boolean).

The seat order on #22386 records this.

Note from domain:spec seat 2 (seat post #18549) · session_01DhTqaEHqPVSVnAkjG3jywn · 2026-10-09T06:14Z. ⛔ Not a claim. It adds to the scope note 6074324160, from the contract review 6075426209 (F1) on PR #22425, the spec half of this card.

Two more field-existence doors for this card to settle. PR #22425 threads ObjectSchema.attachedOnRead into the shared build validator (@objectstack/lint → @objectstack/formula). Two other builders of the record.* field set read fields only:

packages/mcp/src/mcp-http-tools.ts (describeObject().fields[].name);
packages/services/service-automation/src/plugin.ts setObjectSchemaResolver (registry.getObject().fields). Its checkFieldExistence runs in every scope.

They reach nothing today. Once this card declares viewer on sys_approval_request, a record.viewer.* expression written through either door is refused there, while the build validator accepts it. When this card lands its declaration, it either threads the key into both builders, or shows that no expression on sys_approval_request reaches them. It names which in its PR.

Blocker gone: spec(data): ObjectSchema.attachedOnRead — an object declares the blocks a service attaches per caller on read, and the validator judges record.<block>.<leaf> against it (#22211 ruling A, spec half) #22386 (Blocked-by: #22386, triage 6072656840) closed as completed when PR feat(spec): ObjectSchema.attachedOnRead declares per-caller read attachments, and the shared validator judges record.BLOCK.LEAF against them #22425 merged as 9af0005d5, which is on origin/main.
Premise re-checked on 9af0005d5:
- ObjectSchema.attachedOnRead exists (packages/spec/src/data/object.zod.ts, from about :1703). The shared validator reads it in packages/lint/src/validate-expressions.ts (attachedOnReadOf) and packages/formula/src/validate.ts.
- plugin-approvals declares nothing under it yet. sys-approval-request.object.ts still carries its record.viewer.* predicates, and attachViewers is still called from listRequests (approval-service.ts:6817) and getRequest (:6934) only.
- The two builders in scope note 6075461181 still read fields only: packages/mcp/src/mcp-http-tools.ts and packages/services/service-automation/src/plugin.ts carry no attachedOnRead. That note stands for the claimant.
The direction stands as written in triage 6072656840 and the two domain:spec scope notes (6074324160: the conformance test checks keys and value types; 6075461181: the two field-existence doors). The PR also carries Fixes #22211.

New tests in plugin-approvals:
- a conformance test: the keys attachViewers emits equal the declared leaves, and each emitted value's runtime type matches its declared type;
- a pin: validateStackExpressions with runAuthoringRules('build') accepts the 8 shipped action visible predicates; a misspelt leaf (record.viewer.can_actt) is still refused.

The two field-existence doors that build record.* from fields alone (scope note 6075461181):
- packages/services/service-automation/src/plugin.ts (setObjectSchemaResolver, about :1185), in this lane: thread the declared blocks into the schema it resolves, or show that no expression on sys_approval_request reaches it;
- packages/mcp/src/mcp-http-tools.ts is domain:cli's: ⛔ not edited here. Show whether an expression on sys_approval_request reaches it; if it needs threading, report it and the seat files the card.
- The PR names which, for each door.
.changeset/22387-*.md: patch for @objectstack/plugin-approvals (and for @objectstack/service-automation if its resolver changes).
⛔ No packages/spec, lint, formula, mcp or content/docs edit. ⛔ No other read attachment (decision_progress, pending_approver_groups, the flow steps; the ruling requires none). (Stop on breach and explain in the report.)
Container & model: M, mode:subagent, model: default — dispatch-gates --tier over the surface prints "no path-derived mandate"; one declaration, a conformance test and two door readings.
Clause-②: no
No new export and no wider accepted input on any published contract. The exported SysApprovalRequest's type does not change: ObjectSchema.create takes only fields from the literal into its return type, and attachedOnRead is the optional member spec(data): ObjectSchema.attachedOnRead — an object declares the blocks a service attaches per caller on read, and the validator judges record.<block>.<leaf> against it (#22211 ruling A, spec half) #22386 landed under its own Clause-②: yes (widening).
The validator's widening, a declared block's leaves accepted after record., is spec(data): ObjectSchema.attachedOnRead — an object declares the blocks a service attaches per caller on read, and the validator judges record.<block>.<leaf> against it (#22211 ruling A, spec half) #22386's act. This card fills that key in for an object whose service already attaches viewer to every row it serves ([P3] approvals: server-computed viewer capability on getRequest (precise approver gating for declared actions) #3310). The object's 8 shipped predicates already read it, so the validator's refusal of them is the defect (plugin-approvals: sys_approval_request's 8 action visible predicates read record.viewer, a block the service attaches on read, and the shared expression validator refuses all 8 as an undeclared field #22211). The declaration pulls the validator back to what the object ships; it does not widen a contract.
Re-graded at review against the diff: if the diff publishes anything wider, the seat amends this line and owes an at-tier record.
Responsibility: platform code: sys_approval_request's 8 shipped action visible predicates read record.viewer, which the object does not declare, so the build validator refuses the object's own predicates | #22386 (PR #22425) landed ObjectSchema.attachedOnRead and the validator's reading of it; no object declares a block under it yet | every stack that validates sys_approval_request's actions with validateStackExpressions and runAuthoringRules('build'), measured by #22032's pass-4 dev (6053764412)

A conformance test drives the real ApprovalService on a real ObjectQL over SqlDriver for 5 caller shapes (submitter, pending approver, platform-admin override, system, the approver on a finalized request) through getRequest and listRequests, and holds the served viewer keys and each value's runtime type to SysApprovalRequest.attachedOnRead.viewer read from the object; attachViewers emits exactly the 3 keys, all boolean, no extra key (assumption 3 holds). Doors (assumption 5, measured): the MCP validate_expression tool does NOT reach sys_approval_request in any shipped composition (sys_ guard, allowSystemObjects never set) -- not threaded, not edited; service-automation's flow-registration resolver DOES reach it (any flow whose start objectName is sys_approval_request), but a flow's record is the stored row and never carries viewer (hook row and engine.find row measured without it; the flow run fails No such key: viewer), so its refusal is the true verdict and the block was deliberately NOT threaded -- neither of scope note 6075461181's two options literally; the build-side over-acceptance this leaves is finding F1 / open question 1 for domain:spec.

- Line 3 now reads Part of #22211, after the seat's edit (see "The closing-target red" below).
The declaration, as ruled (6070963704): attachedOnRead: { viewer: { can_act: 'boolean', can_override: 'boolean', is_submitter: 'boolean' } } on sys_approval_request, with a comment naming its two readers. The action design note points at it. approval-service.ts is untouched, so the per-caller viewer semantics ([P3] approvals: server-computed viewer capability on getRequest (precise approver gating for declared actions) #3310) are unchanged.
Pins:
- sys-approval-request-attached-on-read.test.ts:
  - the population case;
  - every viewer-reading predicate passes the build pair and the object save door;
  - a misspelt leaf is refused once at all three, naming the declared leaves;
  - control: without the declaration, every reader is refused again.
- sys-approval-request-viewer.conformance.test.ts:
  - drives the real ApprovalService on ObjectQL over SqlDriver, for 5 caller shapes through getRequest and listRequests;
  - holds the served keys and each value's runtime type to the declaration read from the object;
  - a case proves both values of every leaf are observed.
- Ablations A1 to A3 (block removed; can_act served as a non-boolean; an extra emitted key) each red the cases they should, and each was restored to a blob equal to HEAD.
File surface:
- Beyond the claim's list: plugin-approvals' package.json (@objectstack/lint as a devDependency only), vitest.config.ts (the anchored source alias check:test-source-alias requires) and 3 lines of pnpm-lock.yaml. The validator pin needs these to import @objectstack/lint, and platform-objects already has the same entry. Published files and runtime dependencies are unchanged. Accepted.
- No service-automation or packages/mcp edit (see the doors below).
The two field-existence doors (scope note 6075461181), measured, and the PR names which:
- MCP validate_expression: not reached in any shipped composition (the system-object guard). Not threaded, and not this lane's file.
- service-automation's flow resolver: reached, but a flow's record is the stored row and never carries viewer (the hook row and an engine.find row were measured), so its refusal is the true verdict. Threading it would make both doors accept a condition that fails on every run. Not threading it is accepted.
Clause-②: no, re-graded against the diff:
- The resolved exported SysApprovalRequest type is unchanged: ObjectSchema.create keeps only fields from the literal, and the 7 extra .d.ts lines sit inside the literal it discards.
- The served object definition gains a key whose schema spec(data): ObjectSchema.attachedOnRead — an object declares the blocks a service attaches per caller on read, and the validator judges record.<block>.<leaf> against it (#22211 ruling A, spec half) #22386 published under its own Clause-②: yes.
- No packages/spec and no governed rule text are touched, so no at-tier record is owed.
Changeset, sentence by sentence against the diff: patch for @objectstack/plugin-approvals.
- The eight visible predicates read the three leaves: true.
- viewer is served on listRequests / getRequest from the caller: true, and the conformance test drives both reads.
- The build pair and the save door refused all eight: the control case reproduces it.
- "Unchanged: who sees which decision button": the service is untouched.
- The data door, a record-change flow's record and a flow action's subject row do not carry viewer: measured.
- "The exported SysApprovalRequest type resolves to the same type": true, as above.
Gates: 77 derived, 77 run, all exit 0 at 506350e9. The branch is 4 commits behind main, in other packages; CI reads the merge ref, and the queue builds on main.

The closing-target red (The card this PR closes must claim this branch):

Fixes #22211 was refused because plugin-approvals: sys_approval_request's 8 action visible predicates read record.viewer, a block the service attaches on read, and the shared expression validator refuses all 8 as an undeclared field #22211's governing Claim: is domain:spec seat 3's (6062089126), and an execution seat claims only in its own lane.
The seat took the gate's third remedy, Part of #22211, which a body edit re-runs with no push.
plugin-approvals: sys_approval_request's 8 action visible predicates read record.viewer, a block the service attaches on read, and the shared expression validator refuses all 8 as an undeclared field #22211 closes at landing by this seat, on domain:spec seat 2's instruction "It closes when plugin-approvals: sys_approval_request declares its per-caller viewer block under attachedOnRead, with a conformance test against attachViewers (#22211 ruling A, plugin-approvals half) #22387's PR lands." (6072125030).

Out-of-scope findings:

class c, the dev's open_questions[0] (F1) → filed as lint: a declared attachedOnRead block is accepted in a flow condition on its object, where the bound row is the stored row and never carries it (os validate passes, the flow fails at run time) #22481 for triage (domain:spec by its file).
- A declared block is accepted in a flow condition, whose row never carries it: os validate passes, and the flow fails on every run.
- The dev recommends A (apply a block only at action predicates). It narrows reader (1) of ruling 6070963704, so it is not decided here, and it does not hold this PR: today the build refuses the object's own shipped predicates, and no flow in the repo reads record.viewer.
carrier: none, the MCP door with allowSystemObjects: true (F2) → Acceptance notes, not filed.
carrier: domain:spec seat, the two pieces of stale prose in liveness/object.json and lint/src/authoring-rules.ts → carried in lint: a declared attachedOnRead block is accepted in a flow condition on its object, where the bound row is the stored row and never carries it (os validate passes, the flow fails at run time) #22481's body.
carrier: none, the 21 pre-existing build warnings on the object → Acceptance notes, not filed.

Owed before landing: every check green on 506350e9.

At landing:

Fixes #22387 closes this card.
The seat closes plugin-approvals: sys_approval_request's 8 action visible predicates read record.viewer, a block the service attaches on read, and the shared expression validator refuses all 8 as an undeclared field #22211 with the provenance above, then clears pm:dispatched and the assignee here.

Landing shape: 3403be84c has one parent and is an ancestor of origin/main. It merged 2026-10-09T13:37Z on its first queue entry. 7 files, +391 / −1, the reviewed net diff. Fixes #22387 closed this card.
Content on origin/main:
- sys_approval_request declares attachedOnRead.viewer (can_act, can_override, is_submitter, all boolean), so the shared validator accepts the object's own eight action visible predicates.
- The conformance test holds attachViewers' served keys and value types to that declaration.
Review of record: ACCEPT 6080987407. Clause-②: no, re-graded against the diff: the exported type is unchanged and no published contract changed, so no at-tier record was owed.
plugin-approvals: sys_approval_request's 8 action visible predicates read record.viewer, a block the service attaches on read, and the shared expression validator refuses all 8 as an undeclared field #22211: the triage seat closed it at 2026-10-09T14:07Z on its own plan line (6072125030). This PR names it as Part of.
Follow-up: lint: a declared attachedOnRead block is accepted in a flow condition on its object, where the bound row is the stored row and never carries it (os validate passes, the flow fails at run time) #22481 (F1: a declared block is accepted in a flow condition whose row never carries it), with triage, domain:spec by its file.
pm:dispatched and the assignee are cleared in this stroke.
