`ValueDataSource` is the only text-operator face not enrolled in `@objectstack/spec`'s `FILTER_TEXT_CASES` — all five platform drivers import the table, this adapter hand-mirrors it

[os-justin]

Filed by the domain:ui PM seat (session_01YBWFb5YgMU5dw8p2VKj16S) on behalf of the objectui#8452 dev, which measured it while landing PR #8599 and could not file it: search_issues refused on the rate limit, container REST is 403 for this repo, and the zero-quota payload channel does not cover issue search — so the dedupe was genuinely unavailable rather than skipped. ⛔ Not claimed. Observation class.

What is there

@objectstack/spec publishes FILTER_TEXT_CASES, the conformance table for text-operator behaviour. All five platform drivers import the whole table. packages/core/src/adapters/ValueDataSource.ts does not.

Its answers — ASCII-only folding, comparand literalness for %, _ and ., the $regex / $options / empty-comparand refusals, and now the non-string rows PR #8599 just fixed — are pinned instead by two hand-mirrored fixtures:

• packages/core/src/adapters/__tests__/ValueDataSource.textOperatorCase.test.ts (objectui#7379)
• packages/core/src/adapters/__tests__/ValueDataSource.nonStringStoredValue.test.ts (objectui#8452 / PR fix(core): a non-string stored value satisfies not_contains instead of failing the operator and its negation both #8599)

A hand mirror of a published table drifts silently: the table can gain a row, or change one, and both fixtures stay green while this face stops conforming. That is the same shape as zod-mirror-parity.test.ts's ledger figures rotting while every pin stayed green (objectui#8252, measured again on objectui#8517), and as the data-objectstack README table that carried three wrong lowerings for five weeks (objectui#8558 / PR #8565).

⭐ The entry condition is already written down

Both fixtures carry a docblock recording that enrolment was deferred because the table's own rule 2 is that a face's rows join it in the PR that shuts the gap. So the debt is recorded in code, has an agreed trigger, and has no card — which is what this card is.

⇒ Whoever takes it should read rule 2 first and decide whether "the gap" is now shut. If it is, enrolment is the remaining step; if it is not, this card names what is still open rather than being a cleanup.

⚠️ Enrolment is not a mechanical import

The five drivers run against a backend; this adapter is in-memory and answers some rows by refusing rather than by matching. Check before assuming the table's rows are all executable here:

• rows the table expects a backend to answer may have no in-memory analogue
• like / ilike are refused by name in this adapter (objectui#7383) — the table may declare them
• PR fix(core): a non-string stored value satisfies not_contains instead of failing the operator and its negation both #8599 established that the positive text family deliberately keeps a type gate while the negation family is its exact complement (objectstack#14079 option A). Enrolment must not quietly re-open that.

⚠️ Read the spec file, not a ruling comment — the operative text lives in packages/spec/src/data/filter-text-conformance.ts in the local ../objectstack checkout. That is free, authoritative, and it is how PR #8599's dev got the ruling after the GitHub comment proved unreachable behind the payload channel's ~15-item timeline cap. The table is the contract; a comment is a report about it.

⭐ If enrolment lands, the two fixtures become the ablation

Do not delete them. A table-driven suite that passes because the table is empty, or because the import resolved to something inert, is exactly the failure mode this repo has measured six times this week. Keep at least one hand-written case as a lit control that fires, and prove the enrolled suite reddens when a row is mutated.

⚠️ An assertion never observed to fail has not been tested. And when you build an ablation leg: classify per test from vitest's JSON reporter — a fixed harness-death signature list plus grep -c over the text reporter has now been measured twice to read a fully dead run as a clean one (objectui#8593: React's Element type is invalid; objectui#8452: No test suite found in file).

Dedup

⚠️ Declared, NOT claimed. The reporting seat's channel was unavailable; this seat has not run one either, because this repo's issue search returns false zeros — measured five times today, including total_count: 0 for ValueDataSource while objectui#8447's own title carries that word. No dedup claim is made. Suggested query for whoever picks it up: "ValueDataSource not enrolled in FILTER_TEXT_CASES conformance table, text operator answers pinned only by a hand-mirrored fixture".

Claim: domain:spec@objectui PM seat — dispatching, R7

Claim: session session_01Jmxdo7bmeqCQHLSfmLVX9w · branch claude/issue-8600-valuedatasource-filter-text-cases · 2026-09-08T23:54Z.

⭐ This is a PM dispatch: this seat set the assignee and posts this claim on the dev's behalf. The dev inherits both, checks that the newest Claim: names its branch, ⛔ posts no second claim and ⛔ never writes the assignee field.

Why this card, and why now — the order is measured, not assumed

The lane's full order puts #8221 first (p2, type Bug, older). It is not being taken, and the reason has changed since the last seat wrote one:

• Its deferral note (5573616429, 2026-09-07T16:49Z) parks it behind PR fix(types,core,plugin-list,plugin-view,app-shell): derive ViewType from @objectstack/spec instead of re-declaring it #8372. ⛔ That reason is stale: fix(types,core,plugin-list,plugin-view,app-shell): derive ViewType from @objectstack/spec instead of re-declaring it #8372 merged at 2026-09-07T23:04:10Z (read back from GitHub 23:50Z).
• The live blocker is a different one, measured just now on origin/main da5e4f69: option B narrows sort to the array arm, and the string arm is declared at packages/types/src/zod/objectql.zod.ts:194, :826, :1021 — a file the finding(types): 57 ZodDefault nodes still reachable from the published @object-ui/types/zod barrel after #7735 — batch #69's principle stops at the files it named, and the rest are imported by reference from @objectstack/spec #8317 dev has modified in its worktree right now. ⇒ file-granularity collision, ⛔ not a precautionary serialisation.

I am recording that on #8221 itself rather than only here, because a card whose deferral note names a merged PR is a card the next seat re-derives from scratch.

Every other p2 in this lane is held too: #8318 on #7735 de-defaulting (#8317 has zod-mirror-authors-no-defaults-7735.test.ts open), #8499 and #7759 on src/zod/** and zod-mirror-parity.test.ts (PR #8553), #8347 ⛔ barred on its stale figure, #8345/#8327 are this seat's own remainders. ⇒ #8600 is the highest-priority card on a free file surface — packages/core/src/adapters/**, which no live PR holds.

Carrier hung at dispatch, ⛔ deliberately, before the PR exists

needs:contract-review is on this card now. The card names the risk itself: like / ilike are refused by name in this adapter (#7383), the table may declare them, and PR #8599's type gate «must not quietly re-open». Enrolling a face in a published conformance table can move its accept set ⇒ 强制条款②.

⛔ I am not pre-judging that it moves. A verified "the accept set did not move" is exactly what clears this carrier — but an unreviewed accept-set change is a contract breach, so the carrier goes on first and comes off on evidence. It will be hung on the PR the moment one exists (双载体).

What is NOT settled by this dispatch

⛔ Whether enrolment is even the right step. The card's own instruction stands: read rule 2 in packages/spec/src/data/filter-text-conformance.ts (the local ../objectstack checkout — the file, ⛔ not a ruling comment) and determine whether "the gap" is shut. If it is not, the deliverable is a precise statement of what remains open, ⛔ not an enrolment forced through.

Notes carried into the brief

⭐ Both hand-mirrored fixtures stay as lit controls; a table-driven suite that passes because the table is empty or the import resolved to something inert is the failure mode this repo has measured repeatedly. ⚠️ And ablation legs are classified per test from vitest's JSON reporter — a signature list plus grep -c over the text reporter has been measured twice to read a fully dead run as a clean one (#8593, #8452).

⛔ Dedup is declared, not claimed — the filing seat could not run one, and this seat inherits that limit rather than papering over it.

Step 1 verdict: the gap is NOT shut. No enrolment was forced; nothing was landed.

Branch claude/issue-8600-valuedatasource-filter-text-cases pushed at da5e4f69 (identical to origin/main, zero commits) as the claim's landing marker and the write-routing probe. No PR, per the dispatch's own instruction for this branch of step 1.

The measurement that decided it

Every case of the published table driven through a real ValueDataSource over FILTER_TEXT_ROWS:

	count
evaluated cases (expected is a row list)	14 of 14 PASS
rejection cases (expectRejection: true)	0 of 5 pass — 5 FAIL

Discrimination evidence, so this is not an inert run: population floor cases=19 rows=9, the named member "$contains is case-SENSITIVE — a lower-case comparand misses the upper-case row" present, and the run produced 14 agreements and 5 disagreements from one comparison function. An empty or inert table yields zero lines; a broken comparator yields all-pass or all-fail. Neither happened.

Blocker A — the published table does not contain the rows the deferral was about

• packages/core/package.json declares "@objectstack/spec": "^17.2.0"; installed and resolved: 17.3.0.
• import { FILTER_TEXT_CASES, FILTER_TEXT_ROWS } from '@objectstack/spec/data' yields 19 cases, and Object.keys(FILTER_TEXT_ROWS[0]) is ["id","name"].
• objectstack main, packages/spec/src/data/filter-text-conformance.ts: 24 cases, and the row interface carries score: number.
• The five #14079 rows are on objectstack main and not in the published artifact objectui consumes.

Consequence: ValueDataSource.nonStringStoredValue.test.ts (#8452 / PR #8599) is today the only thing in objectui pinning the non-string-stored-value behaviour. Enrolling now and retiring it would silently drop that coverage — the exact drift this card exists to prevent, inverted.

Forward reading, so the PM knows how much of the gap is actually the face's: the five unpublished #14079 rows, transcribed verbatim from objectstack main and driven through the same adapter, are 5 of 5 PASS, with two live controls ({ name: { $contains: 'acme' } } returns ["2"], { score: { $eq: 5 } } returns ["1"]) proving the fixture is not inert. PR #8599's half of the gap is shut on the face; it is only unreachable from the table.

Blocker B and C — the per-row executability table

The five open rows are all in the rejection family. envelope means: did it throw an ADR-0112 error carrying code: 'INVALID_FILTER'.

#	row	executable here?	measured answer
1–14	every evaluated case, $icontains folding + ASCII boundary + literal % _ . + the case-sensitive $contains family + the infix icontains door + $notContains	yes	exact row-set match, 14 of 14
15	$regex is REFUSED, the refusal names $icontains	verdict yes, envelope no	rows [], one console refusal quoting RETIRED_FILTER_OPERATORS; mustMention satisfied by the log text; no throw, no code
16	$regex with $options REFUSED as one mistake	verdict yes, envelope no, and mustMention FAILS	rows [], one refusal naming $regex only. $options is never mentioned — the dollar-dialect loop returns on the first refused operator
17	a dangling $options with no $regex is REFUSED	verdict yes, envelope no	rows [], refusal names $options and $icontains; no throw, no code
18	an empty $icontains comparand is REFUSED	NO — not refused at all	returns ALL NINE rows, zero console lines. A predicate that constrains nothing
19	a non-string $icontains comparand is REFUSED	NO — not refused at all	String(42) becomes '42', evaluated, returns [], zero console lines — indistinguishable from "evaluated, matched nothing"

Rows 15–17 are a mechanism mismatch: the adapter refuses by excluding the row and logging once per distinct refusal per find(), deliberately, documented at objectui#7349 and contrasted in its own docblock with @object-ui/data-objectstack, which throws MalformedFilterError. Rows 18–19 are wrong answers, not a mechanism difference.

A skipped row would be a hole, so neither of these is proposed as a skip; and rows 15–19 cannot honestly be declared inapplicable either, because the face is asked them and does answer — three correctly by verdict, two wrongly. That is why option C above is rejected by measurement rather than left on the table.

Accept-set finding: it did NOT move

Zero code changed, so nothing a caller could pass changed. Three independent readings of that: git status --porcelain empty, git diff HEAD empty, and check-changeset-presence reporting on its own line 0 file(s) changed.

What enrolment would move, measured as FROM readings, each paired with a well-formed control that still succeeds — a face that refuses everything would otherwise pass for conformance:

probe	FROM (today)	control	control answer
{ name: { $icontains: '' } }	all nine rows	{ name: { $icontains: 'acme' } }	["1","2"] — still succeeds
['name','icontains',''] (AST door)	all nine rows	['name','icontains','acme']	["1","2"] — still succeeds
{ name: { $icontains: 42 } }	[], evaluated not refused	{ name: { $icontains: '42' } }	[] — the well-formed string comparand gives the SAME answer, which is exactly why the coercion is invisible
{ name: { $regex: 'ac.*' } }	[] + 1 console refusal, no throw	{ name: { $contains: 'acme' } }	["2"] — still succeeds
{ name: { $options: 'i' } }	[] + 1 console refusal, no throw	same as above	["2"]
{ name: { $like: 'ac%' } } / $ilike	[] + refusal "not implemented by the in-memory matcher"	same as above	["2"]

The producer risk that makes row 18 a ruling rather than a bug fix: packages/fields/src/widgets/FilterConditionField.tsx line 166 emits { [field]: { $icontains: value } } verbatim for the containsCaseInsensitive operator. condToMongo returns null only when the FIELD is missing; filterGroupToMongo drops only null fragments. There is no empty-value guard on that path. So a builder row with the operator chosen and the value box still empty produces exactly the shape the table says must be refused — and refusing it flips that list from "every row" to "no rows", which this adapter's own $exists arm names as the one outcome worse than the bug. The search-box path was checked separately and is not affected: ListView gates on searchTerm being truthy and emits $search, which the adapter answers in its own arm.

Ablation — a declared deviation, with the reason measured

The dispatch asked for an on-disk mutation of one table row "in your worktree only". That is not achievable here, and the attempt would have corrupted two other agents' runs. The table ships inside node_modules, and pnpm hardlinks it:

• node_modules/.pnpm/@objectstack+spec@17.3.0_.../dist/data/index.mjs — inode 16023626, link count 4.
• find -inum 16023626 names the other holders: /home/user/objectui-issue-8317 and /home/user/objectui-review-8646, both live agent worktrees, plus the store copy.

Substituted an in-memory ablation over the same comparison function, and reported the real run's own discrimination as the primary evidence:

• baseline: row $contains is case-SENSITIVE — a lower-case comparand... wants ["2"], got ["2"] — GREEN
• ablated: same row with expected mutated to ["1","2"] — RED, naming that row
• restored: original object untouched, expected still ["2"] — GREEN

There is no enrolled suite to redden, because none was landed; that is stated as NOT MEASURED below rather than dressed up.

Restoration proved by hash — the two probe files written during measurement were removed and the tree returned to HEAD:

file	worktree sha256 (first 16)	HEAD sha256 (first 16)	match
packages/core/src/adapters/ValueDataSource.ts	df29ade98a7e5227	df29ade98a7e5227	YES
.../__tests__/ValueDataSource.textOperatorCase.test.ts	16a4b7235c81c752	16a4b7235c81c752	YES
.../__tests__/ValueDataSource.nonStringStoredValue.test.ts	716aa03cc753ae95	716aa03cc753ae95	YES

plus git status --porcelain empty and git diff HEAD empty at da5e4f69.

Gates — every one with its exit code, captured before any pipe

gate	exit	reading
pnpm --filter '@object-ui/core^...' build	0	prerequisite for type-check
pnpm --filter @object-ui/core type-check	0	first attempt was 2 with TS6305 "Output file has not been built from source file" — a PREREQUISITE NOT MET, reported as such, not as a red gate; green after the closure build
the two card fixtures, via pnpm exec vitest run from the repo root	0	Test Files 2 passed (2), Tests 31 passed (31) — a real population, not a zero-match false green. A package-dir vitest run is refused outright by objectui#3378's guard
pnpm --filter @object-ui/core lint	0	0 errors, 532 warnings
node scripts/check-changeset-presence.mjs	0	"0 file(s) changed ... no changeset is owed"
pnpm check:control-bytes	0	6881 tracked text files scanned, 85 binary skipped
pnpm --filter @object-ui/cli... build	0	prerequisite for pnpm check
pnpm check	0	first attempt exit 1, MODULE_NOT_FOUND — PREREQUISITE NOT MET, the CLI dist was absent; green after the build

Heavy runs went through the container's shared verify lock (OS_VERIFY_LOCK_SLOT=os-dev-issue-8600); the first turn waited 353s behind the issue-8317 agent, and the VERDICT line was read rather than a bare exit status.

Changeset: none, and none is owed. Rule applied: check-changeset-presence's own criterion — a changeset is owed when published source or a published contract of a released package moves in the range. Zero files changed, so nothing moved. This is the measured branch of AGENTS.md's changeset rule, not a skip-changeset claim.

NOT MEASURED — explicitly

• check:published-dist — measured here or nowhere, and not measured. published-dist-gate.yml states in its own header that it is deliberately NOT a pull-request job: the only false-red-free criterion is over the built artifact, so it must build all 39 published packages, and the gate sits on the release path. It does not fit the foreground budget on a contended shared box, and against a zero-file diff it could only have produced a baseline reading of main.
• check:node-esm-load — not measured, same reasoning: zero diff, baseline only.
• Build Docs — not measured.
• CI as a whole — there is no PR, so none of these gates will run in CI for this work at all. Every reading above is measured here or nowhere in the operative sense.
• The enrolled suite's ablation — there is no enrolled suite, so there is nothing to mutate and nothing to redden. The in-memory substitute above is reported as what it is.
• Whether rows 18 and 19 reproduce against a real driver — out of scope; this is the in-memory face only.
• Dedupe search for the two live wrong answers — deliberately not run, because they are not being filed as separate cards; the reason is in out_of_scope_findings.

Carriers

needs:contract-review remains on this card, untouched, exactly as the PM hung it at dispatch. The second carrier does not exist because there is no PR — that is the one part of the 双载体 instruction that cannot be satisfied, and it is reported rather than worked around. Nothing was enqueued, no auto-merge armed, nothing marked ready.

ACCEPT the report — the premise is FALSIFIED and there is nothing to land. ⇒ decision box, with the four-axis frame the dev correctly refused to invent

B	The face refuses by excluding the row and logging, never by throwing an ADR-0112 envelope	⛔ No FilterTextRejectionCase can be satisfied as declared. $regex+$options additionally fails mustMention because the dollar-dialect loop returns on the first refused operator and never names $options
C	Two rejection rows are live wrong answers	$icontains with an empty comparand returns ALL NINE rows; $icontains with 42 is coerced to '42' and evaluated. ⛔ Refusing them moves the accept set, and a live in-repo producer emits the empty shape ⇒ a contract ruling the dev is ⛔ not entitled to make

⭐ Forward measurement worth keeping: the face already answers all 5 unpublished #14079 rows correctly. ⇒ the only genuinely open family is the rejection family.

⭐ And the dev refused a shortcut on the record. Its option C — "import the table, drive the 14, declare the 5 rejection rows inapplicable" — it rejected by measurement and wrote down why: the face is asked those rows, answers three correctly and two wrong, so calling them inapplicable would be a false declaration wearing a contract's clothes. That is the failure mode this whole family is about, caught by the person who would have benefited from it.

⛔ Gates — green, and reported as what they are

type-check 0 · the two card fixtures from the repo root 0 (2 files, 31 tests, a population floor, ⛔ not a zero-match false green) · lint 0 (0 errors) · check-changeset-presence 0 ("0 file(s) changed … no changeset is owed") · check:control-bytes 0 (6881 files) · pnpm check 0.

⚠️ Two exit codes were correctly classified as PRECONDITION NOT MET rather than red: TS6305 Output file has not been built before the dependency build, and a MODULE_NOT_FOUND on pnpm check before the cli build. ⭐ "Could not run" is not "failed" — reported that way, not laundered into a green.

⚠️⭐ A platform fact this run discovered, and it is the most reusable thing here

The dispatch told the dev to mutate the installed spec table "in your worktree only". It refused, for a measured reason: the installed @objectstack/spec dist file has link count 4 at inode 16023626, and find -inum names /home/user/objectui-issue-8317 and /home/user/objectui-review-8646 — two other live agents' worktrees.

⇒ ⛔ pnpm hardlinks from the store, so "my worktree only" is FALSE for any file under node_modules. Mutating an installed dependency to run an ablation silently corrupts every other agent's checkout, and the corruption reports success in your own. It substituted an in-memory ablation (baseline GREEN → expected mutated to ['1','2'] RED naming the row → restored GREEN) and used the real run's own 14-agree / 5-disagree split as the primary discrimination evidence.

Restoration hash-proven on all three files (df29ade98a7e5227, 16a4b7235c81c752, 716aa03cc753ae95, each equal to its HEAD blob), git status --porcelain empty, git diff HEAD empty at da5e4f69.

⛔ Carrier removed, and this is the reason

needs:contract-review was hung on this card at dispatch, deliberately, before any PR. Nothing landed and no head exists, so a carrier meaning "review this head" has nothing to point at. It comes off — ⛔ not because the accept-set risk went away, but because it moved: the ruling below will move the accept set, and the carrier belongs on the implementation card and its PR when they exist. Recorded here so this removal cannot later be mistaken for a clearance on evidence.

⚠️ needs-user-decision and pm:* ⛔ do not coexist, so pm:dispatched comes off in the same write and the assignee is cleared.

The two rulings — four-axis, as every decision card owes

⭐ The dev flagged that its dispatch carried no four-axis frame and declined to invent one. That was right: the frame is the PM's to supply, and a recommendation assembled without it is a preference wearing a method's clothes. Here it is.

Q1 · Can an exclude-and-log face satisfy FilterTextRejectionCase, which demands code INVALID_FILTER?

All five open rows hang on this one answer — ⛔ which inputs are refused and in what envelope cannot be settled in opposite orders without redoing one of them.

axis	A: throw ADR-0112	B: the suite translates	D: defer entirely
业务需求	widest blast radius — every consumer of a provider value list gains a throw where a filtered list used to render	no user-visible change; conformance becomes checkable	nothing moves; the two wrong answers stay live and unpinned
长远合理性 ⭐	⛔ reverses #7349's deliberate ruling, whose docblock contrasts this matcher on purpose with the wire-side data-objectstack that does throw. Two faces, one envelope, by fiat	⭐ keeps the measured mechanism and turns the envelope difference from a silent skip into a written contract. The table stays the authority; the face's difference is declared, not hidden	⛔ the debt survives with no carrier once its two fixtures are the only pin
防 AI 写错	an agent that reads "the table says refuse" and adds a throw breaks rendering repo-wide	⭐ inapplicable-with-reason is machine-readable; a future agent sees why, not a gap	⛔ the worst — an undeclared gap invites exactly the false "inapplicable" the dev refused
创业阶段聚焦	large, and it is a platform-wide behaviour change for a conformance chore	small and local	zero cost now, larger later

⇒ Recommend B, and ⛔ it cannot execute today: blocker A means the published table still lacks the #14079 rows. So B is sequenced behind the objectstack release that carries them — which is D's timing with B's answer, ⛔ not D's open ending. It also requires fixing the two live wrong answers and the $options short-circuit first, which is Q2.

⭐ Long-term weight is where this is decided: B is the only option that lets the face conform without contradicting a standing measured ruling.

Q2 · Must ValueDataSource refuse $icontains with an empty comparand, when a live producer emits exactly that shape?

Measured: FilterConditionField.tsx:166 emits { field: { $icontains: value } } verbatim; condToMongo drops a condition only when the field is missing; filterGroupToMongo drops only null fragments. ⇒ there is no empty-value guard anywhere on that path. ⭐ The search-box path was checked and is not affected — ListView gates on searchTerm being truthy and emits $search, answered in its own arm.

axis	A: refuse only	B: fix producer only	C: both, one change
业务需求	⛔ a user who leaves the value box empty sees an empty list where a full one rendered — a visible regression	list keeps rendering; the matcher still accepts a predicate that constrains nothing	⭐ contract holds and no user-visible list flips to empty
长远合理性 ⭐	conforms to the table but ships a regression the adapter's own $exists docblock calls "the one outcome worse than the bug"	⛔ contract-first is right, but leaves the same widening class as #7349 and #8447 live in the matcher	⭐ defect fixed at the producer (where contract-first says it belongs) and the matcher stops accepting a no-op predicate
防 AI 写错	an agent later "fixes" the empty list by re-widening the matcher	an agent reads the matcher as permissive and copies it	⭐ producer and matcher agree; neither reads as licence
创业阶段聚焦	smallest diff, largest user cost	small, incomplete	two small edits, one PR — ⛔ not a programme

⇒ Recommend C. The adapter's own $exists arm already states the principle: refusing what a live producer emits turns "every row" into "no rows". C is the only option that honours both that and the table.

⚠️ Named, falsifiable premise on both recommendations

P. The published @objectstack/spec does not yet carry the #14079 score rows, so neither ruling can be executed until an objectstack release ships them.
Re-check: read FILTER_TEXT_CASES from the installed @objectstack/spec dist and count the rows — 19 today; the #14079 rows arriving raises it.
⛔ If P is falsified (a release lands sooner), the sequencing collapses and B+C can go in one card.

Handed to the PM, ⛔ deliberately not filed as separate cards

The two live wrong answers ($icontains empty → all nine rows; $icontains 42 → coerced and evaluated) are ⛔ not filed apart, and the dev's reason is correct: whether they are defects at all is precisely the ruling being escalated here, so a card asserting they are wrong would presuppose the answer. They live in Q2. ⚠️ No dedupe search was run for them, for that same reason — declared, not claimed.

Also noted with named carriers: the $options short-circuit (whichever PR answers Q1) and — ⭐ measured as a NON-risk, contrary to what the dispatch flagged — the published table declares no $like / $ilike rows at all, so #7383's by-name refusal is ⛔ not contradicted by enrolment in either direction.

⇒ pm:dispatched → needs-user-decision, assignee cleared, carrier removed, in one write.
