feat(app-shell): New automation opens on starting points, the trigger form under Advanced (objectui#11861)

[objectstack-fleet]

Fixes #11861

Clause-②: no

The automations entry, the last of the three entries triage named on the card (comment 6051947408). The validation-rule entry landed through objectui#11931 / objectui#11967 and the actions entry through objectui#11977, so this PR closes the card. Claim: comment 6071664220 (seat domain:ui#3).

What changes

New automation used to ask for a name and then offer the Start node's whole trigger list, with "Choose later on the Start node" first (objectui#11788). It now asks When it runs, with four plain-language starting points from a module-private table, flowPresets.ts, the first one chosen:

Preset	Writes on the Start node	Waits for
When a record is created	triggerType: 'record-after-create' + objectName	the object
When a record is updated	triggerType: 'record-after-update' + objectName	the object
When a record is deleted	triggerType: 'record-after-delete' + objectName	the object
When a button or another automation starts it	triggerType: 'manual'	nothing

• Each preset is one of the Start node's own trigger choices, sent through the unchanged doCreateFlow and withStartTrigger. A preset flow is therefore byte for byte the flow Advanced writes for the same trigger: a Start node and an End node, type: 'autolaunched', born status: 'obsolete' (objectui#11779).
• A record preset shows the Start node's own Object field right under it. With no object named, Create sends nothing and the dialog says "Choose the object it watches." Which presets wait is not a second list: the Start node's Object field decides it through its showWhen, the same reading the Advanced form uses.
• Advanced is the fifth choice. Choosing it shows the objectui#11788 trigger form, unchanged in markup and in what it writes. Left on "Choose later", it writes the blank flow byte for byte (pinned as the control).
• No preset adds a step, and no preset writes a script.

Files: StudioDesignSurface.tsx (the dialog's extra and onSubmit, its two new state values, the New button's reset, one import), the new flowPresets.ts, 6 new rows en + zh under engine.studio.auto.* in metadata-admin/i18n.ts (the Advanced word reuses engine.studio.rules.advanced, as the Actions menu does), the new pin, a helper-only change to two existing pins (the objectui#11788 pin and the objectui#11779 create case now choose Advanced first; no assertion changed), and .changeset/11861-flow-presets.md (@object-ui/app-shell: patch). All inside the claim's file surface. CreateItemDialog.tsx is not touched, so the hold is a refusal inside onSubmit shown through the dialog's existing error slot, not a disabled Create button.

Measured before choosing (dispatch zone 2, hypothesis 2)

FlowSchema from the installed @objectstack/spec 17.7.0 accepts every candidate start-to-end flow, including the ones that cannot work as created: a record trigger with no object, triggerType: 'schedule' with a cron, triggerType: 'api' with no secret. So the schema is not the hold criterion here; the runtime is. Read in objectstack source (not run against a live backend):

• A record trigger with no object. The record-change trigger registers its hook with object: binding.object; ObjectQL's registerHook treats an absent object as a global hook, run for every object's records. So a record preset waits for its object.
• Schedule and time-relative sweep: not offered. resolveScheduledWorkEnabled answers false unless the deployment switches OS_AUTOMATION_SCHEDULED_WORK_ENABLED on, and both schedule triggers refuse to bind while it is off. Under the isolated posture a bound one also needs config.organization. Such a flow is "Not running here" on a default deployment, so it is not a working preset.
• Webhook / API: not offered. The engine refuses to register an api flow whose Start node carries no secret, and this dialog does not ask for one.
• Screen flow: not offered. It needs a screen step, and every step names something only the author knows.

All of these stay one choice away, under Advanced.

Pins

New: StudioDesignSurface.flowPresets-11861.test.tsx, 8 tests, driven through the real AutomationsPillar and CreateItemDialog with a recording metadata client:

1. the dialog opens on 3 to 5 presets, the first checked, with the trigger form absent until Advanced is chosen;
2. every preset's trigger is one of the Start node's options, and exactly the record ones are in the Object field's showWhen (the pure flowPresetTrigger read both ways);
3. to 6. per preset: the saved flow parses with FlowSchema, resolveFlowTriggerKind answers record_change or none (never a schedule, sweep or hook), the nodes are exactly start and end, and the flow equals the one Advanced writes for the same trigger and object;
4. the hold: a record preset with no object sends nothing and shows the line, then saves once the object is named;
5. the control: Advanced left on "Choose later" writes the objectui#11788 blank flow, compared as a fully spelled-out literal.

Reverse verification, through objectstack scripts/ablation-replace.mjs WRAP mode on 650b0d03b (each anchor x1 to x0, blob changed; each restore proven: blob equal to HEAD and git diff HEAD empty). Control: 8 of 8 pass.

• A1, a preset routed through the blank path (doCreateFlow(label, name, trigger) to null): 5 failed, 3 passed (the four preset cases and the hold).
• A2, the hold removed (flowPresetTrigger returns the trigger without an object): 2 failed, 6 passed (the pure read and the hold).
• A3, Advanced routed through the preset path: 5 failed, 3 passed (the four preset-equals-Advanced cases and the control).

Evidence, at HEAD 658db0b82 (after merging main at 70f1b2755, objectui#11795)

• pnpm --workspace-concurrency=2 --filter '@object-ui/app-shell^...' build, then pnpm --filter @object-ui/app-shell type-check (it echoes tsc --noEmit && tsc -p tsconfig.test.json; the test project includes src/**/*.test.tsx): exit 0.
• The whole studio-design directory, in two locked runs: 156 files, 1108 tests, all passed.
• Every other test that imports the designer table, reads its source, or names AutomationsPillar or flowPresets, in two locked runs: 95 files, 1421 tests, all passed.
• eslint (root eslint.config.js, files: ['**/*.{ts,tsx}'], no type-aware linting, so this diff cannot move a verdict on an untouched file) on the 6 touched TS files: 0 errors, 13 warnings, all in StudioDesignSurface.tsx. That file carries the same 13 on main 70f1b2755.
• check:i18n-keys, check:i18n-drift ("No en value changed in this range."; designer table: 6 keys added, 0 en values changed), check:i18n-dead-keys, check:i18n-designer-parity, check:control-bytes, check:test-path-roots, check:changeset-claims, check:pending-changeset-literals, check:new-line-citations, check:unreferenced-sources, check:esm-specifiers, check:vi-mock-* (3), check:spec-symbols, check:handler-key-reads, check:metadata-write-doors, and scripts/check-changeset-{presence,no-major,fixed,overwrite}.mjs: all exit 0. check-governed-queue-guard --test on the 7 paths: NOT GOVERNED.
• NOT MEASURED: check:readme-exports (prerequisite not met: app-shell dist/index.d.ts not built here; no export changed). A real-browser pass (no objectstack backend serving Studio in this container; behaviour pinned in happy-dom). The console build and first-load bytes, which belong to CI's Bundle Analysis; its reading goes in the os-dev report on the card.

Acceptance notes

• Docs. Neither content/docs/guide/console.md nor packages/app-shell/README.md describes the New automation dialog, so nothing there is stale and both are outside the claim. A sentence the seat may add to the console guide: "New automation asks when it runs: when a record is created, updated or deleted (on the object named right under the choice), or when a button or another automation starts it. The full trigger list is under Advanced."
• Not filed (read-only, no carrier): packages/app-shell/README.md's flow designer section says a start node "deliberately stores no triggerType" and lists Entry condition as criteria. The Start node's trigger select writes config.triggerType (objectui#11788 relies on it), and the inspector writes condition. Docs drift, untouched here.
• Not filed (boundary, no carrier): the Advanced form still lets an author save a record trigger with no object, which the runtime runs as a global hook. That is today's behaviour, kept byte for byte as ordered.
