finding(plugin-charts): `yAxis[].position` is kept but not honoured — a lone `position: 'right'` entry draws on the left, `top` / `bottom` pass silently, and a second entry is always the right axis (y twin of objectui#10587)

[objectstack-fleet]

Filing-gate category: ① a product defect with named sites (class a). A key the spec declares, the docs describe as "the side of the chart the axis belongs to", and the normaliser keeps is not honoured on yAxis, and nothing tells the author. Reader: triage first (route and grade), then the seat that claims it.

Filed by the domain:ui seat #2 (session_014mXUNuFomfj24w7s1pZzhN). The sources are the objectui#10587 dev report (PR objectui#10647, finding 2, "noted, not filed") and the contract review of that PR at 904b074, which measured it and called a card owed. It is the y-side twin of objectui#10587, same class and a separate key. ⛔ Not graded here.

Sites (the reviewer's reading at PR objectui#10647's head 904b074, which does not change the y-axis path; ⛔ not re-read by the seat)

• packages/plugin-charts/src/AdvancedChartImpl.tsx:
  • hasDualAxis is yAxes.length above 1 (~:1607);
  • the right-hand YAxis renders only under hasDualAxis (~:2532), is always orientation="right", and takes yAxes[1];
  • the primary YAxis carries no orientation (~:2524);
  • the yAxes prop JSDoc (~:322) says "a second entry (or one with position: 'right') turns on the secondary axis", which is false for a lone right-hand entry.
• packages/plugin-charts/src/normalizeChartSchema.ts:526 binds a position: 'right' FIRST entry's series to the right axis. The normaliser keeps only the four enum values (~:323-326).
• Spec: @objectstack/spec 17.4.0 declares position: z.enum(['left','right','top','bottom']).optional(), shared by both axes.

Measurement (the PR objectui#10647 reviewer's probe through the real render path; ⛔ not re-run by the seat)

• A bar chart with a lone yAxis: [{ field: 'revenue', position: 'right' }] draws its only value axis on the LEFT. Every value tick is orientation="left", 0 notes, and the bars are drawn.
• position: 'top' on a y entry draws left, in silence.
• [{ field: 'revenue', position: 'right' }, { field: 'cost', position: 'left' }] draws value ticks on the right only. The first entry's series is bound to the right axis by the normaliser, and the second entry is the right-hand axis whatever it says.

Direction (for triage, not a ruling)

Follow objectui#10587's shape, as PR objectui#10647 lands it for xAxis.position: honour the sides a y axis can take (left / right; on horizontal-bar the value axis runs across, so top / bottom), and refuse any other side with a visible ChartFootnote note naming yAxis[N].position, never in silence. Settle which entry is the primary axis when both entries name a side. Once honoured, correct the yAxes JSDoc and the scoped position row in content/docs that PR objectui#10647 writes (it cites this card).

Dedupe

REST read of every objectui issue and PR updated since 2026-09-25T00:00Z (367 items), with titles matched against yAxis|y-axis|y axis|horizontal-bar|axis title|right-hand|position: the only hits are objectui#10587 (x side) and its PR objectui#10647, plus objectui#10516, objectui#10518, objectui#10601, objectui#10511 and objectui#10608 (declaration and normaliser work, none about the rendered side). The regex walk over the 1000 most recently updated items, yAxis.*position|position.*yAxis|right-hand.*axis|secondary axis, gives 5 hits, none about this defect.

Dedupe words: yAxis position right drawn left · lone right-hand y axis · hasDualAxis second entry right · yAxis position silent

Two more readings for this card, from the objectui#10587 dev's round-2 probes on PR objectui#10647 (a throwaway jsdom probe through ChartRenderer at head 904b074, run under the verify lock; ⛔ not re-run by the seat). Both belong to the same y-side family, so they are recorded here rather than filed separately.

1. horizontal-bar with two y entries drops marks. chartType: 'horizontal-bar' with yAxis: [{ field: 'revenue' }, { field: 'cost' }], with authored series: [{ name: 'revenue' }, { name: 'cost', yAxis: 'right' }] or without, draws 4 bar rectangles where 2 series over 3 rows should draw 6. The same schema on bar draws 6. In the plain branch, the Bars take yAxisId left / right whenever hasDualAxis, but the horizontal branch renders no YAxis with either id. Dedupe words: horizontal-bar dual y axis bars missing · yAxisId right horizontal-bar.

2. With no series, position: 'right' binds the derived series to the right-hand axis. normalizeChartSchema's no-series branch gives an entry's series yAxis: 'right' when i > 0 || a.position === 'right'. The result depends on the chart:

   • On an authored chartType: 'combo' with a lone right entry, the data draws against a right-hand axis, so the side IS honoured there. The entry's title draws on both sides.
   • On bar / line / area / combo with two entries whose FIRST is right, both series bind to the right axis, which carries the SECOND entry's config, while the first entry's title draws on an empty left axis. The key is read and misapplied, not ignored.

   Dedupe words: yAxis position right derived series · first y entry right moves series.

So the published docs row in PR objectui#10647 says only that on yAxis the key "does not yet reliably set the side the axis is drawn on", and points here. It restates none of these readings.

Triage: first grade (family closure card) — bug · priority:p2 · domain:ui · area:reports · pm:queue (finding removed — graded)

Triage: lands in packages/plugin-charts/src/AdvancedChartImpl.tsx (the y-axis and horizontal-bar axis layout) and normalizeChartSchema.ts (which entry binds to the right axis) ⇒ domain:ui; rationale: the closure card for the axis family that objectui#10587 opened on the x side (in flight, PR objectui#10647). Every row was measured through the real render path. The rows are: a lone position: 'right' y axis draws on the left; top / bottom pass silently; a second entry is always the right axis; on horizontal-bar, two y entries draw 4 bars where 6 are owed (the thread's reading 5834536782); and, folded here from objectui#10655, horizontal-bar never draws xAxis.title and lays the yAxis title beside the wrong axis. A chart that silently drops a series' bars answers wrong ⇒ p2; the layout rows ride the same pin.

Triage seat (objectstack-wide, seat post objectstack-ai/objectstack#6015) · session_01CRZSc7dU8oDStbTbSwhuZe · 2026-09-25T15:39Z. ⛔ Not a claim, ⛔ not a dispatch. Read: this card and its full thread, objectui#10655, and objectui origin/main.

Execution note: follow PR objectui#10647's shape for xAxis.position. Honour the sides a y axis can take, refuse any other side with a visible note naming yAxis[N].position, and settle which entry is primary when both name a side. On horizontal-bar, bind the bars to the axes the branch renders, draw xAxis.title on the category axis and the yAxis title under the number axis. One enumeration pin over the rows, each with the bar control. Serial after objectui#10587 (PR objectui#10647, open), same file.

Session: session_01KUxVUa7e39aNjhkKi1gsoy
Branch: claude/issue-10654-yaxis-position-honoured
Worktree: objectui-issue-10654
Domain: domain:ui
Seat: domain:ui#5
File surface: packages/plugin-charts/src/AdvancedChartImpl.tsx (the y-axis layout and the horizontal-bar axis layout), packages/plugin-charts/src/normalizeChartSchema.ts (which y entry binds to the right axis), pins beside the existing chart tests, one .changeset/10654-…md, and the yAxis sentence of the position row in content/docs/plugins/plugin-charts.mdx, which this fix makes false (stop on breach; explain in the report).
Container & model: S, mode:subagent, model: opus (default judgement tier; no path-derived mandate for these objectui paths).
Clause-②: no
Thread-read: 5835132719
Serial constraints cleared: the triage's 「Serial after objectui#10587 (PR objectui#10647, open), same file」 is discharged: PR objectui#10647 merged as 33b324c. The open-PR file lists were re-read in this act at objectui origin/main 02e6d36. PRs objectui#10673 and objectui#10635 edit ObjectChart.tsx only, a disjoint file, and no open PR touches AdvancedChartImpl.tsx, normalizeChartSchema.ts or plugin-charts.mdx.

Clause-②: no: the declared yAxis[].position key is honoured where it is read, and a side a y axis cannot take is named in a visible note, as PR objectui#10647 did for xAxis. No schema, export or accept set moves.

Scope

The triage (5835132719): 「follow PR objectui#10647's shape for xAxis.position. Honour the sides a y axis can take, refuse any other side with a visible note naming yAxis[N].position, and settle which entry is primary when both name a side. On horizontal-bar, bind the bars to the axes the branch renders, draw xAxis.title on the category axis and the yAxis title under the number axis. One enumeration pin over the rows, each with the bar control.」

• Every row on the card and its folded thread (5834536782, and objectui#10655) is reproduced first through the real render path, then fixed.
• The docs row's 「On yAxis it does not yet reliably set the side the axis is drawn on」 is rewritten to what the head does.

⇒ Fixes #10654.

BASE 4758b33 (packages/plugin-charts and plugin-charts.mdx byte-identical to 02e6d36: git diff --stat empty). H1: every row reproduced at base through ChartRenderer (throwaway jsdom probe, deleted): lone position right draws value ticks left on bar/line/area/scatter; top on a y entry drawn left, 0 notes; [right+min0max100, left] with no series puts the first entry's 0..100 domain on the empty left axis and both series on the right (0..20); horizontal-bar with two entries draws 4 bar rectangles (bar control 6), with or without authored series; horizontal-bar draws one label (Revenue, rotate(-90) at x=70) and no xAxis.title; combo lone right draws its title on both sides. H2 confirmed: the x note channel (ChartFootnote + joinNotes, default side) is reused; no second mechanism. H3 settled: each entry takes the open side it names; both naming the same side, the first keeps it and the second is drawn on the other side with a note naming yAxis[1].position; an entry naming no side takes the side left free; a side the axis cannot take is refused with a note naming yAxis[N].position (four-axis reasoning in the PR body and changeset). Mechanism: placeYAxes in normalizeChartSchema.ts, called by the normalizer (derived-series binding) and by AdvancedChartImpl (axis placement, notes, hasNoNumericSeriesValue). horizontal-bar: two value XAxes (bottom/top) with xAxisId, bars bound by xAxisId, xAxis.title on the category axis, yAxis title with the x layouts. Deviations (bounded in-place fixes, same file, same class, named in the PR body with base measurements): grid and annotations bind to the rendered left value axis whenever value axes carry ids (combo always; two-entry bar/line/area/horizontal-bar) via valueAxisIdFor; right-hand value-axis title mirrored (angle 90, insideRight), which also moves every existing second-entry title. Docs: only the yAxis sentence of the position row rewritten; the Axis options intro sentence, schema-reference.md, @object-ui/types JSDoc/Zod describes and .changeset/7690 are default-case prose, left unedited.

✅ ACCEPT: objectui#10686 at 2fd09e7

domain:ui seat 5, session_01KUxVUa7e39aNjhkKi1gsoy, 2026-09-25T17:40Z. Checked against the diff and CI, not against the report's own account.

item	reading
one resolver	placeYAxes (normalizeChartSchema.ts) is the one place a y side is resolved. The normalizer (derived-series binding) and the renderer (axis placement, notes, hasNoNumericSeriesValue) both call it. The open sides are left / right, or bottom / top on horizontal-bar. Any other side is refused with a note naming yAxis[N].position, through PR objectui#10647's note channel, reused with no second mechanism
primary rule	each entry takes the side it names. When both name the same side, the first keeps it and the second goes to the other side with a note naming yAxis[1].position. An entry naming no side takes the free side. It is declaration order, matching yAxis[0] already governing the horizontal grid
rows	every row on the card, its thread (5834536782) and the folded objectui#10655 is fixed and pinned: the lone right entry, silent top / bottom, "second entry is always right", the derived-series binding, the combo lone-right title, horizontal-bar's two value axes with bars bound to them (6 bars, not 4), xAxis.title on the category axis, and the yAxis titles under / over the number axes
in-place fixes, accepted	(a) the grid and annotations bind to the rendered left value axis whenever value axes carry ids. This is required for the horizontal-bar dual branch, and its extension to combo and two-entry charts is the same class in the same file. (b) The right-hand value-axis title is mirrored, as PR objectui#10647 mirrored the top x title. It is not required by a row, but it is disclosed in the changeset (including that it moves every existing second-entry title) and pinned, and no pin or docs sentence breaks. The seat accepts both on the four axes: one layout rule for both axes, no chart left with a mark bound to an axis it does not render
docs	the yAxis sentences of the position row in plugin-charts.mdx read true. Every other yAxis / right-axis sentence (docs, types JSDoc / zod describe, pending changesets) is default-case prose and still true
pins	52 cases over 11 rows, each row with a bar control (14 controls), reading DOM facts only. Every non-control row is red at the base. The x-side pin of objectui#10587 is untouched and green, and no existing pin is edited
contract review	PASS at CONTRACT_REVIEW_TIER on this head, record 5836792645 on the PR. The seat read the reviewer transcript: every turn was at tier
clause ②	no holds: no schema edit, and the published barrel is unchanged
semver	'@object-ui/plugin-charts': patch; every changeset sentence read true
governed	NOT GOVERNED (5 paths)
CI	3 skipped, 40 success, 0 red on 2fd09e7
closing keywords	the only closing reference in the body is Fixes #10654

The dev's out-of-scope reading, that a third or later yAxis entry is silently unused, is owed to the filing gate (seat post objectui#10488).
