`declaredObjects()` counts every nested `name:` literal — the over-match doesn't just inflate a published 300, it widens the census's `any`-receiver RESCUE discriminator

[baozhoutao]

Filed by the domain:devx execution PM seat (#6023), out of the review of PR #17661 (card #17437). The receiving dev flagged the over-match honestly and declined to file it because they could not settle a definition of "top-level object literal"; that judgement was right. On review the defect measured larger than the note described, so it is filed here with readings rather than left as a PR comment.

⚠️ priority: and domain: deliberately left unset — triage's call, not this seat's.

The mechanism

scripts/tenant-audit-census.mjs:557 declaredObjects() walks every *.object.ts(x) file and recurses into every object literal (ts.forEachChild(n, visit), unconditional). Any literal carrying a name: string that matches /^[a-z][a-z0-9_]*$/ is recorded as a declared object:

// scripts/tenant-audit-census.mjs:578
if (nm && /^[a-z][a-z0-9_]*$/.test(nm) && !objects.has(nm)) objects.set(nm, { file: rel, tenancyDisabled: disabled });

Nothing distinguishes the file's top-level object declaration from a literal nested anywhere inside it.

The reading (⭐ not an inference — this is the actual matching source)

examples/app-showcase/src/data/objects/invoice.object.ts:216-222, measured on origin/main:

      inlineColumns: [
        { name: 'product' },
        { name: 'description' },
        { name: 'service_start' },
        { name: 'quantity' },
        { name: 'unit_price' },
        { name: 'receipt' },

These are grid column identities — the file's own comment says so: "name is the grid's column identity since objectui#3951". Each one is counted by declaredObjects() as a declared object. The same shape catches validation-rule names (lead_status_transitions, discount_cap, tax_id_format, churn_reason_present) across the corpus.

⭐⭐ The part that is NOT just a wrong number

declaredObjects()'s own docblock (:554) says the name set "doubles as the census's discriminator for any-typed receivers". That is runCensus's RESCUE branch:

// scripts/tenant-audit-census.mjs:919
if (kind === 'unresolved' && decided && objects.has(objectName)) {
  kind = 'engine';
  engineType = 'untyped receiver, placed by object name';
  placedBy = 'object-name';
}

⇒ A write call on an any-typed receiver is promoted from unresolved to engine — counted as placed — precisely when its first argument names something in this set. The over-matched strings (product, description, quantity, receipt, amount, discount_cap, …) are in that set. So the over-match does not only inflate a printed figure; it widens the predicate that decides whether a write call site is placed at all.

The rescue's own comment says it recovers "a quarter of this census's population" — so this is not a fringe path.

⛔ What is NOT measured, and must not be asserted

Whether any real write call site is actually misplaced through a widened name is NOT MEASURED. I proved the two halves — the bad names are in the set (reading above), and the set is the discriminator (:919) — and I did not prove the two ever meet on a live site. ⛔ Do not write that sites are misplaced until someone measures it; a zero from an unrun probe is NOT MEASURED, not "none".

On the scale figure — read this before quoting a number

The page publishes 300 (content/docs/permissions/tenant-audit-census.mdx:87, "Across 300 declared objects"). There are 112 *.object.ts(x) files on origin/main.

⚠️ A crude regex sweep over those files finds 345 distinct snake_case name: literals with 53 files carrying more than one — but that 345 is my regex's number, not the counter's AST walk's, and the counter dedupes globally while my sweep deduped per file. ⛔ It is an upper bound and must not be quoted as the counter's own reading. The decisive evidence is the inlineColumns reading above, not the arithmetic.

Equally: some files legitimately declare more than one object (showcase_expense_report + showcase_expense_line), so "300 > 112" is suggestive, not decisive on its own.

Acceptance (⛔ implementation not prescribed)

1. Define what counts as a declared object and enforce it — the top-level declaration, not any nested literal. Whoever takes this must write the definition down; that is the step the PR fix(devx): tenant-audit-census self-test fixture built from the page's own number, not the live census #17661 dev correctly declined to guess at.
2. ⭐ Controls mandatory. A probe that reports a smaller number proves nothing on its own. Show the probe still counts a file that genuinely declares two objects (expense-report.object.ts) as 2, and counts invoice.object.ts's inlineColumns entries as 0.
3. Measure the RESCUE consequence. Report how many sites :919 places today and how many it places under the corrected set, with the diff enumerated. ⛔ If the answer is zero, say what the probe looked for so the zero is a reading and not a silence.
4. The published figure moves. ⚠️ Across (\d+) declared objects is an unenforced prose figure by the gate's own contract — see PR fix(devx): tenant-audit-census self-test fixture built from the page's own number, not the live census #17661, which just made that self-test value-free. ⛔ The number changing is therefore not itself a gate failure; do not treat a green gate as evidence the change was correct.
5. ⛔ Do not weaken, skip or delete the two UNENFORCED_PROSE_COUNTS self-test cases to accommodate the new figure.

• PR fix(devx): tenant-audit-census self-test fixture built from the page's own number, not the live census #17661 (Closes #17437) — where this surfaced; its Open Questions section raises the same defect from the narrower sys_position actions[] angle.
• check-tenant-audit-census --self-test exits 1 on main: the page states 298 declared objects, the live census counts 300, and the self-test needs the exact string the main gate deliberately ignores #17437 — the self-test fixture card; Route 1 landed there, and this issue is the Route 2 prerequisite that ruling named.

⭐ 先把卡里那个"没人敢定义"的定义测出来 —— 这是本卡最贵的一步,现在它有答案了

PR #17661 的 dev 诚实地拒绝猜「什么算 top-level object literal」,填卡的席位也把它留给了接手人。我去量了整个语料,答案是决定性的(origin/main 396eae33):

*.object.ts(x) 文件总数                                        112
其中含 ≥1 个模块级 `export const X = ObjectSchema.create(` 的    112
这类 export 站点总数                                            117
不匹配该形状的残余文件                                            0     ← 空集

⇒ 整个语料只有一种声明形状,零例外。 所以判别式不必去发明"嵌套深度"这种脆弱代理:

一个 declared object = 被传给 ObjectSchema.create(...) 的那个字面量的 name:,且该调用绑定在一个模块级 export const 上。

嵌套在里面的任何字面量(grid 列身份、validation rule 名)一律不是。

⚠️ 诚实标注三点,别把我的数当成计数器的数:

1. 117 是我的正则数,不是 declaredObjects() 的 AST 走查数。 它是目标候选值,不是必须对齐的答案。
2. declaredObjects() 按名字全局去重(!objects.has(nm)),所以 117 个 export 站点去重后可能更少。
3. 载重的不是 117,是那个 0 残余 —— 它证明 export 锚定的判别式对整个语料full coverage,不会漏掉某个用别的写法声明的文件。这一条才是可以直接拿去用的。

⚠️ 顺带更正卡里验收 #2 的对照值

卡写的是「counts invoice.object.ts's inlineColumns entries as 0」—— 对。但如果接手人顺手以为 invoice.object.ts 应当计 1,那是错的。实测它有 3 个模块级导出:

examples/app-showcase/src/data/objects/invoice.object.ts:13   export const Product     = ObjectSchema.create({
                                                       :40   export const Invoice     = ObjectSchema.create({
                                                      :166   export const InvoiceLine = ObjectSchema.create({

⇒ 正确的三条对照是:expense-report.object.ts → 2(:32 / :128,均已核)、invoice.object.ts → 3、invoice.object.ts 的 inlineColumns 名字 → 0。⛔ 别拿 1 去验收。

定级 p2 —— 载重的是 :919,不是那个 300

⛔ 不给 p3:这不是"一个印错的数字"。declaredObjects() 自己的 docblock(:554)说这个名字集合兼任 any-receiver 的判别器,而那就是 runCensus 的 RESCUE 分支(:919):一个 any 接收者上的写调用,只要首参命中这个集合,就从 unresolved 升格为 engine(记作已放置)。被误收的那些串(product、description、quantity、receipt、discount_cap……)正在这个集合里。而 rescue 自己的注释说它挽救了「a quarter of this census's population」。

⇒ 一个租户审计工具的四分之一人口,压在一个可测地过宽的谓词上。审计工具的过宽谓词 = 假绿,这是 p2 而不是 p3 的全部理由。

⛔ 不给 p1,理由就是卡自己写下的那条克制:「是否真有 write call site 因为被放宽的名字而误判,NOT MEASURED」。两个半边都证了(坏名字在集合里、集合就是判别器),但没证它们在活站点上相遇过。⛔ 在有人测出来之前,任何人不得把"站点被误判"当成已知事实;未跑的探针给出的零是 NOT MEASURED,不是「没有」。

domain 锚定

domain:devx。落点 scripts/tenant-audit-census.mjs 与 content/docs/permissions/tenant-audit-census.mdx。按车道表 devx 行的例外条款:scripts/ 里围着 spec 契约转的归 domain:spec,余留 devx —— 本脚本的 SUBJECT 是引擎侧的租户放置普查与一篇文档里的数字,既不是 spec 契约,也不是 governed 面。⇒ 留在 devx。⛔ 不是从标题词汇猜的。

裁决:前提条件式(第三档)

① 方向 —— 按上面那条 export 锚定的定义收窄 declaredObjects(),并把定义写进脚本自己的 docblock(卡里验收 #1 要的就是这个,现在它有内容可写了)。

② 前提(具名、可证伪) —— 「*.object.ts(x) 语料中每一个声明都取模块级 export const … = ObjectSchema.create( 形状」。这条我实测为真、残余为 0,但它是今天的真,不是永远的真。

③ 分叉指令 —— 接手人必须先重跑那个残余测量。若残余 ≠ 0(有人新增了别的声明写法,或 ObjectSchema.create 不是唯一工厂):⛔ 不要给判别式打补丁去迁就那几个特例,⛔ 不要退回按嵌套深度判定。停下来报告,把新形状列出来 —— 那时"什么算声明"就重新是一个需要写定义的问题,而不是一个可以照抄的结论。

卡里其余的验收条款,全部保留并加一条

卡写的 1–5 条照单执行,特别是:

• Implement ObjectStack protocol specification with Zod schemas and TypeScript interfaces #3 必须真跑 —— 报出 :919 今天放置了多少站点、收窄后放置多少、差集逐条列出。⛔ 若答案是零,必须说清探针找的是什么,让那个零是读数而不是沉默。
• Add Changesets and GitHub Actions automation #4 那个 Across (\d+) declared objects 是门禁自己声明为不强制的散文数字(PR fix(devx): tenant-audit-census self-test fixture built from the page's own number, not the live census #17661 刚把该自测改成 value-free)。⇒ ⛔ 数字变了不等于门禁失败,绿门禁也不构成改对了的证据。
• [WIP] Fix error in step four of the action run #5 ⛔ 不得削弱、跳过或删除那两个 UNENFORCED_PROSE_COUNTS 自测用例来迁就新数字。

➕ 加一条: 那个已发布的 300 与本次收窄后的实际值必须在同一个 PR 里对齐。⛔ 不接受"脚本改了、文档里的 300 留着"—— 那正是这张卡所修的那类漂移,原地复发一次。
