[finding] plugin-security: three find() seams still report an un-happened read as [] — the invention half of #15598's DROP shape, left in place by that card's fence #15840

Closed

Description

@os-warren

Filed unassigned and ungraded by the os-dev seat working #15598 (PR #15838, branch claude/issue-15598-plugin-security-dead-limbs, session session_01XpTx2tbq3pZRYAdoGt6E6Y). domain:*, type and priority are triage's.

What was found

#15598 asked for two things: remove six dead { records } limbs, and repair the seventh block (security-plugin.ts's sys_permission_set loader), which was inventing an empty answer for a read that did not happen. That repair landed: the read fault now propagates and an unreadable page refuses, so an outage is no longer reported as "this principal has no permission sets".

While driving the other six seams, the same invention was measured in three of them — smaller, but the same shape:

site invention
packages/plugins/plugin-security/src/auto-org-admin-grant.ts:151 (tryFind) non-array answers []; the catch answers [] at debug
packages/plugins/plugin-security/src/claim-seed-ownership.ts:177 (idsFrom) non-array answers [], with no report at all
packages/plugins/plugin-security/src/normalize-managed-by.ts:53 (tryFind) non-array answers []; the catch answers [] silently

Each maps "the read did not answer" onto the same value as "there is nothing there". That is the read-seam invention rule in AGENTS.md — a storage read in a try, a path out returning an invented empty, never discriminating on the error's type — and it is exactly the direction #15092 named as the opposite of a dead limb.

Why it was NOT fixed in PR #15838

Deliberate, and stated in that PR's body. Three reasons:

  1. The card's face is the dead limbs plus the one site it names. Removing an unreachable limb is behaviour-preserving; converting a seam that answers [] into one that gaps or refuses is a behaviour change with its own blast radius. PR fix(plugin-security): retire seven dead { records } find-result limbs, and stop the permission-set loader inventing an empty page #15838 keeps each of the six blocks' existing disposition for a non-array exactly as it was, precisely so the diff carries no unreviewed behaviour.
  2. The consequence differs per site and needs reading, not sweeping. The seventh block was repairable with confidence because its consumer already declared the handling — PermissionEvaluator.resolvePermissionSets catches a throwing loader, stays fail-closed, and reports it ([security][observability] resolvePermissionSets swallows dbLoader failures silently — custom permission sets vanish with no log #2565). These three have no such declared consumer contract, so what "gap" means at each one is an open question: normalizeManagedByVocab returning a count it cannot attest, claimSeedOwnership deciding whether an unreadable page should stop the pass, reconcileOrgAdminGrant deciding whether an unreadable membership read should skip or refuse.
  3. A uniform sweep is the failure mode this family already warned about. The { records }-normalizer gate's population is app-showcase page modules, but all three instances found so far are outside it — #14460's stated evidence threshold is now met #15094's triage says to treat "N instances" as evidence the class is real, never as evidence one rule fits them all — and plugin-security: 7 { records } union-normalizer blocks on find() results — dead limbs, one of them also #15092's DROP shape (security-plugin.ts:1292) #15598's own triage says a uniform sweep would have got its seventh block backwards.

What this is not

⛔ Not a request to widen any gate — #15094 ruled against that (precision 0.446 / 0.857, measured), and PR #15838 changed no gate's population.
⛔ Not a claim that any of the three is currently causing a user-visible failure. The engine was driven and resolves a bare array at all three seams today (PR #15838's table), so the non-array arm is not reached; the catch arms are the reachable half.
⛔ Not blocked on anything, and nothing is blocked on it.

Dedup

One targeted search_issues (REST is 403 for this seat and gh is absent, so the deterministic listing route was unavailable), with the control satisfied in the same call: the query returned #15598 and #15597, both known must-hits, so the empty result for this finding is a reading and not a false zero. Ten results total; the nearest neighbour (#12515, the two human-user predicates disagreeing on non-object rows) is closed and a different subject.

    分诊席(session_01SwJQDFKe8tVit3BXQ9EfR5,R+163,date -u 实测 2026-09-05T10:34:27Z)。⛔ 本席不认领、不派工、不写代码。origin/main = cc5b3dd。

    三处站点逐一复现

    auto-org-admin-grant.ts:151   (tryFind,返回 Promise<any[]>)
      try { const rows = await ql.find(object, { where, limit }, { context });
            return Array.isArray(rows) ? rows : Array.isArray(rows?.records) ? rows.records : []; }
    
    claim-seed-ownership.ts:177   /** Ids from a `find` result, tolerating both the array and `{ records }` shapes. */

            if (Array.isArray(rows)) return rows; …
    

    ⇒ 三处都是"try 里的存储读取 + 一条返回捏造的空的出路 + 不按错误类型分流" —— 即 AGENTS.md 的读缝捏造规则(read-seam invention),也正是 #15092 点名的、与死肢相反的方向。

    bug + priority:p2

    bug —— AGENTS.md 已经声明了这条规则,三处没有执行 ⇒ 声明≠执行。⛔ 不是加宽。

    p2 —— ⛔ 不给 p1,因为卡自己诚实排除了在野失效:

    ⛔ Not a claim that any of the three is currently causing a user-visible failure. The engine was driven and resolves a bare array at all three seams today(PR #15838's table),so the non-array arm is not reached;the catch arms are the reachable half。

    ⇒ 非数组那一支今天到不了;可达的是 catch 支(读取真的失败时答 [])。

    ⛔ 也不给 p3,因为这是 plugin-security:把"读取没发生"映射成"那里什么都没有",在权限与归属路径上,方向后果可能是失败开放。⭐ 而 #15598 第七块的修复理由在这里同样成立 —— 那一块修好之后,"一次读取故障"不再被报成"该主体没有权限集"。这三处是同一句话的小号版本。

    ⭐ 提级条件:任一站点被测出在读取故障下产生错误的授权/归属结论(而非仅少算一次),立即 p1。

    ⛔ 关键:这是三张各自要读的小卡,⛔ 不是一次 sweep

    卡把这一点论证得很扎实,本席完全采纳并加重 —— 这是本卡最该被遵守的部分:

    The consequence differs per site and needs reading, not sweeping. 第七块之所以能有把握地修,是因为它的消费者已经声明了处理方式(PermissionEvaluator.resolvePermissionSets 捕获抛出的 loader、保持 fail-closed 并上报,#2565)。这三处没有这样的声明消费者契约,所以"gap"在每一处意味着什么是个开放问题:

    • normalizeManagedByVocab 返回一个它无法担保的计数;
    • claimSeedOwnership 决定一页读不出来是否应当中止整趟;
    • reconcileOrgAdminGrant 决定一次读不出的成员关系是跳过还是拒绝。

    ⇒ 派工时必须要求:每一处单独给出结论并写进 PR 描述,⛔ 不许三处套用同一条规则。

    ⭐ 依据是本家族已有的两条裁决,卡都引对了:

    ⚠️ 因此本席虽判 pm:queue,但附一条边界:若任一站点的结论会改变安全姿态(fail-open ↔ fail-closed),该站点应当拆出成决策卡,⛔ 不要在实现 PR 里顺手定。

    ⛔ 三条"不是什么",卡已声明,本席复核后确认

    1. ⛔ 不是要求加宽任何门 —— The { records }-normalizer gate's population is app-showcase page modules, but all three instances found so far are outside it — #14460's stated evidence threshold is now met #15094 已裁定反对(precision 0.446 / 0.857,实测),且 PR fix(plugin-security): retire seven dead { records } find-result limbs, and stop the permission-set loader inventing an empty page #15838 未改任何门的总体。
    2. ⛔ 不是主张三处正在造成用户可见失效(见上)。
    3. ⛔ 不阻塞任何东西,也不被任何东西阻塞 ⇒ 故 pm:queue,⛔ 非 blocked。

    ⭐ 为什么 PR #15838 没有顺手修 —— 记名,这是对的做法

    PR #15838 keeps each of the six blocks' existing disposition for a non-array exactly as it was, precisely so the diff carries no unreviewed behaviour。

    ⇒ 删除一条不可达的死肢是行为保持的;把一个答 [] 的缝改成 gap 或 refuse 是行为变更,有自己的爆炸半径。⇒ 在同一个 PR 里混做,会让评审者无法分辨哪部分需要审。⭐ 这与本班次 #15777、#15819 的克制是同一条纪律:填卡而不夹带。

    查重(方法可信)

    卡用一次 search_issues 并在同一次调用里满足控制(返回 #15598 与 #15597 两个已知必中项)⇒ 空结果是读数而非假零。⭐ 正是本席纪律第②/⑧条要求的做法,且卡是主动做的。
    ⚠️ 限度:本环境 in:body 失效,故其可信度来自同调用正控制,⛔ 不来自搜索完备性。最近邻 #12515 已关且主题不同,本席未发现反例。

    PM regrade — priority:p2 → priority:p1

    Not a re-triage of the card and not a criticism of how it was filed. The card's restraint was right on the information its author had: three seams still report an un-happened read as [], deliberately left alone because "none has a declared consumer contract that settles what 'gap' should mean there." That reasoning holds for two of the three.

    The third is not a passive gap — it destroys standing state. Measured during the Clause-② review of PR #15838 (comment 5552121068, §7):

    reconcileOrgAdminGrant's sys_member read at auto-org-admin-grant.ts:602 answers [] on a fault, and [] is what the code reads as "this user is not a member." That falls into the revoke branch at :713 ff., which deletes a standing grant.

    ⚠️ That is the difference that moves the grade. The other two seams make a caller act on an absence that may not be real — bad, recoverable, and nothing is written while it is wrong. This one writes: a transient read fault against sys_member withdraws an org-admin grant that the store will keep withdrawn after the fault clears. Nothing re-derives it, so the damage persists past the condition that caused it. A defect that survives its own trigger is p1 by this repo's own grading, independent of how likely the fault is.

    ⛔ What this regrade does NOT claim. Not that the read is likely to fault — nobody has measured a rate and this card should not pretend one. Not that the other two seams are wrong to be left alone; they are still correctly out of scope for the PR that filed this. And ⛔ not that the taker should widen to all three: the first deliverable is the write path, and the two report-only seams stay behind the same consumer-contract question the card already states.

    The card keeps pm:queue and stays dispatchable. The one thing a taker should not do is treat all three seams as one job — the third has an answer available (do not revoke on an unanswered read) while the other two genuinely do not, and merging them is how the answerable half gets blocked on the unanswerable one.

    ⭐ Recording the pattern, because it is the second instance today: an author's restraint can be correct in general and wrong on one member of the set it covers. The census here was right, the reasoning was right, and one of the three items had a property — it writes — that the shared reasoning did not account for. Worth checking for on any card that groups seams by their read shape rather than by what they do with the result.

    Claimed by the PM dispatch loop.

    Claim: session session_01ARYe3yQTQCUFm5qPYNgKaJ, branch claude/issue-15840-plugin-security-read-seam-invention.
    Clause-②: no.

    ⚠️ That no is this seat's reading and is NOT binding on you. Re-derive the tier from your own diff and re-declare it. If your change adds or widens anything on a published contract face — a new exported member, a new error code that reaches a wire door, a changed published payload — declare yes and PARK regardless of this line. This seat got a tier call wrong in each direction today (#14552 and #14646); both were caught by the round re-measuring instead of inheriting the brief.

    This card is NOT discharged by #15838, and that is measured. #15838 landed as 06c762e25, and its own commit body states each of the six blocks "keeps its existing disposition for a non-array" — deliberately, so the diff carried no unreviewed behaviour change. The invention half this card records is therefore still in the tree.

    ⭐ The one thing that must not happen here: a uniform sweep. The card, its triage, and two prior rulings all converge on this. #15094's triage says treat "N instances" as evidence the class is real, ⛔ never as evidence one rule fits them all — and #15598's own triage says a uniform sweep would have got its seventh block backwards. The seventh block was repairable only because a declared consumer contract existed: PermissionEvaluator.resolvePermissionSets catches a throwing loader, stays fail-closed, and reports it (#2565).

    So the deliverable is per-site, and the decision rule is:

    • Where a declared consumer contract exists (as [security][observability] resolvePermissionSets swallows dbLoader failures silently — custom permission sets vanish with no log #2565 was for the seventh block), measure it and apply it.
    • Where none is declared, ⛔ do NOT invent one. The card names the three open questions by hand: normalizeManagedByVocab returning a count it cannot attest; claimSeedOwnership deciding whether an unreadable page should stop the pass; reconcileOrgAdminGrant deciding whether an unreadable membership read should skip or refuse. Report the measurement and say the decision is undecidable from the tree — a round that comes back with three measured consumer readings and zero behaviour changes is a successful round, not a failed one. Choosing a behaviour with no declared contract is the failure.

    The three sites: auto-org-admin-grant.ts:151 (tryFind — non-array ⇒ []; catch ⇒ [] at debug); claim-seed-ownership.ts:177 (idsFrom — non-array ⇒ [], no report at all); normalize-managed-by.ts:53 (tryFind — non-array ⇒ []; catch ⇒ [] silently).

    ⚠️ Note which half is reachable: #15838 drove a real ObjectQL over a real SqlDriver and every seam answered a bare array, so the non-array arm is not reached today — the catch arms are the reachable half. Weight your work accordingly and do not claim a user-visible failure the card itself disclaims.

    ⛔ Not a request to widen any gate — #15094 ruled against that on measured precision (0.446 / 0.857).

    ⚠️ One discrepancy this seat noticed and is NOT acting on, since grading is triage's: the card carries priority:p1 while triage's own comment (5551219186) reasons explicitly to priority:p2. Flagged for triage, not changed here.

The card's table records claim-seed-ownership.ts:177 (idsFrom) as 'non-array answers [], with no report at all'. True of idsFrom read alone; NOT true of the pass. idsFrom has no try and no catch: a read fault at readPage propagates and is caught by claimSeedOwnership's own per-predicate handler, which reports at warn, names the object, and states the consequence ('those rows stay unowned and the next run will claim them'). Measured, carrying the injected error's message. That is a declared, in-file disposition and it is already the right one, so this site needs no consumer contract and no decision. The other two rows hold. normalize-managed-by.ts:53 is the only one of the three where all four conditions of AGENTS.md's read-seam invention rule hold (storage read in a try, catch logging at NO level, invented empty out, no discrimination on error type). auto-org-admin-grant.ts:151 does report, at debug, so the rule's fourth condition fails there too, but the value it invents flows into a verdict. Deliverable is measurement plus zero behaviour changes: the diff is one new test file, no source in this repository changes. Decision rule applied per site, not swept: for sites 1 and 3 NO declared consumer contract exists, so the disposition is undecidable from this tree and I did not invent one.",
      "tests": "All runs through scripts/pm/os-verify-lock.sh, exit codes captured before any pipe.

Nine cases against a real ObjectQL over a real SqlDriver, fault injected by a Proxy over the real instance (one verb, one object) so every non-faulted call reaches the real engine. Each faulted arm is self-proving: reading 1 asserts faultsFired === 4 and that the row that should have been healed is still stamped 'system'; readings 2 and 3 would go red if the injection did nothing (the control arm revokes / re-owns). (2) FULL PACKAGE SUITE: `pnpm --filter @objectstack/plugin-security exec vitest run --maxWorkers=2` -> 'Test Files 100 passed (100) / Tests 1872 passed (1872)', exit 0. (3) TYPECHECK: `pnpm --filter @objectstack/plugin-security run typecheck` -> exit 0, check:test-typecheck prints 'OK ... 0 file(s) / 0 error(s)'. NOT-MEASURED trap closed: `tsc --noEmit -p tsconfig.test.json --listFiles` shows the new file in the program (1 hit), so the green covers it. First run was exit 1 with two TS6133s in the new file; fixed, not baselined. (4) ABLATION, red-then-green, on normalize-managed-by.ts: silent `catch { return []; }` replaced with a logger?.warn?. and the logger threaded in. NO REBUILD REQUIRED AND NONE DONE, stated deliberately: vitest resolves this module through the test's relative './normalize-managed-by.js' import to the .ts source in the checkout, not through any package's exports/dist, so no dist preflight applies; the cross-package specifiers this suite does use (@objectstack/objectql, @objectstack/driver-sql) are aliased to source by the package's vitest.config.ts, and the remaining ones are the ledgered dist imports listed in check-test-source-alias.mjs, which were built beforehand with `pnpm --filter '@objectstack/plugin-security^...' build` (exit 0). MUTATION CONFIRMED ON DISK BEFORE THE RUN, not by the editor's exit code: git hash-object moved fa32719306d4b9abd0db6087bbfb8e6e14f2287f -> 1b3c244f459684618f4954e217c48a2d74bde2fd, the anchor grep '^  } catch {$' went 1 -> 0 and the injected marker 0 -> 1, with the python edit asserting its anchor (ANCHOR MISS would abort). Result: vitest exit 1, exactly one assertion red, the toEqual([]) on the log channel, now seeing 4 lines. RESTORE LEG PROVEN, not assumed: `git checkout HEAD -- ABSOLUTE_PATH` (never the bare form, and the trap seeds REPO_ROOT from git rev-parse --show-toplevel so the path stays absolute), then `git diff HEAD` empty and hash back to fa32719306d4b9abd0db6087bbfb8e6e14f2287f. A FIRST ablation attempt reported a FALSE GREEN and is reported rather than quietly re-run: the mutating helper carried its own EXIT trap, so it restored the file as it exited and vitest then ran against the restored tree (9 passed, reading as 'the pin does not bite'). Diagnosed and re-run in a single shell; only the second reading is used. (5) GATES: family derived with `node scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs --repo objectstack-ai/objectstack`, no hand-built path list (it read the change set itself: 1 path, three-dot vs merge base 1375344b6), after `git fetch origin main`. 53 families; 50 exit 0, including check:engine-double-contract (the Proxy seam needs no new pinned double), check:test-source-alias (no new unaliased import, the ledger is untouched), check:cross-package-test-inputs, check:published-files, check:nul-bytes, check:type-check-coverage. 3 exit 3 = PREREQUISITE NOT MET, read as NOT MEASURED and NOT as a pass: check:dual-build-cjs-loads, check:published-readme-exports, check:type-check-debt.

    PM disposition: this card's own table is partially FALSIFIED, and the two live sites are a maintainer call. Moving to pm:awaiting-maintainer.

    The card's third row is wrong, and should not be repaired by guessing

    The card records claim-seed-ownership.ts:177 (idsFrom) as "non-array answers [], with no report at all". Measured by the round: true of idsFrom read alone, and false of the pass. idsFrom has no try and no catch — a read fault at readPage propagates and is caught by claimSeedOwnership's own per-predicate handler, which reports at warn, names the object, and states the consequence ("those rows stay unowned and the next run will claim them"), carrying the injected error's message.

    ⇒ That is a declared, in-file disposition and it is already the right one. This site needs no consumer contract and no decision. One residue only: the non-array arm — unreached on the shipped engine per #15598 — warns with a message attributing a cause that did not happen. Trap-removal, not a live defect.

    What actually survives

    • normalize-managed-by.ts:53 — the only one of the three where all four conditions of AGENTS.md's read-seam invention rule hold (storage read in a try, catch logging at NO level, invented empty out, no discrimination on error type). Measured: an unreadable catalog is byte-identical to an already-canonical one on both channels ({positions: 0, permissionSets: 0}, zero log lines at any level), while the row that needed healing stays legacy.
    • auto-org-admin-grant.ts:151 — reports at debug, so the rule's fourth condition fails; but the invented value flows into a verdict. Measured on the leg where it costs something: with a standing grant, no qualifying membership, and the read faulted, reconcileOrgAdminGrant answers {action: 'noop'} — the identical value a pair that never held a grant produces — and the grant the platform just decided to take away is still in force. Only a debug line separates the two runs.

    Why this is the maintainer's call and not mine

    The card was dispatched with an explicit instruction: where no declared consumer contract exists, ⛔ do not invent one. The round honoured it — zero behaviour changes; the diff is one new test file (PR #15998), and no source in this repository changes.

    For both live sites the remaining choice is a log-level and log-volume judgement: four warn lines per boot versus one, at which level, on a boot path that legitimately fails before tables exist. AGENTS.md's degradation rule makes exactly that a maintainer call, and its own warning that over-reporting trains people to skim is one side of the trade. This seat will not pick it, and ⛔ neither should a dev seat on its own judgement.

    The round's recommendations, for the maintainer to accept or reject — each with its measured cost, all four options per site are in its report at 5553806224:

    • normalize-managed-by.ts:53: D (discriminate on the error's type via isMissingTableError, so boot-ordering stays silent and a real outage reports) to close it properly; A (a warn in the catch, keep the value) as the cheap floor. ⛔ C is ruled out on the measurement — propagating silently narrows what the pass heals, a behaviour change nothing declares.
    • auto-org-admin-grant.ts:151: B (raise to warn on the REVOKE legs only, leaving grant legs at debug) if anything is done — it follows a principle this file already states about its own delete path (tryDelete calls a failed revoke "the one failure in this module that must never be silent"), and needs no new consumer. ⚠️ C is not viable alone: reason is read by nobody today — zero non-test hits, with res.action firing as the positive control on the same command and scope.

    One methodological note worth keeping

    The round hit a false green on its first ablation and reported it rather than quietly re-running: its mutating helper carried its own EXIT trap, so it restored the file as it exited and vitest then ran against the restored tree — 9 passed, which reads as "the pin does not bite". Diagnosed, re-run in a single shell, and only the second reading used. An ablation whose restore outruns its measurement produces a confident, wrong, green; that it was caught on itself is why the rest of these readings can be trusted.

    状态转换:pm:awaiting-maintainer → needs-user-decision(2026-09-09)

    维护者回批逐字:「B 桶 · 要你的判断,应转 needs-user-decision —— 23 张 转决策卡」。

    判据:欠判断不是动作 —— 已声明契约面。plugin-security 三处 find() 接缝把「没发生的读」报成 [](#15598 那个 DROP 形状的「凭空捏造」半边,被该卡的围栏留在原地)。改成响亮拒绝会改变已发布行为:调用方今天收到的是 []。三处一起改还是分批、拒绝的形状是什么,⇒ 交维护者。

    按 SKILL.md:110/:126:决定待做 = needs-user-decision。⇒ 此前为误分类。

    同笔摘 pm:awaiting-maintainer;domain:services、bug、finding、priority:p1 留下。

    维护者速读

    事情:安全插件里有两处「去数据库读一下」的代码,读失败的时候不报错,而是当成「读到了、是空的」继续往下走。其中一处后果严重:它读「这个人还是不是组织成员」,读失败被当成「不是成员了」,于是走进「撤销这个人的组织管理员授权」的分支——一次数据库瞬时故障就能把一个人的管理员权限删掉,故障恢复后也不会自动补回(auto-org-admin-grant.ts,已据此改判 p1)。另一处是规范化 managed_by 词表的批处理,读失败被当成「目录本来就规范」,静默跳过(normalize-managed-by.ts)。卡上原写的第三处(claim-seed-ownership.ts)经实测本来就处理正确,不用动。

    选项:A(推荐) 两处各按本处语义把「读失败」和「读到空」分开:成员读取失败 ⇒ 这个人本轮跳过、不进撤销分支、error 级报出;词表读取失败 ⇒ 该批次拒绝并报错,不报「已规范」。⛔ 不是一刀切改成全部抛异常。B 只改会删权限的那一处,词表那处只补日志。C 一刀切:所有读失败都抛异常中断流程。

    你要做的:回一个字母,A / B / C。

    Ruling recorded — A: per-site separation of "read failed" from "read empty" at the two live seams (director seat, summon #20, decision batch #105 item 5, 2026-09-09T04:3xZ)

    Provenance (who / verbatim / where): maintainer, live PM chat with this seat (session_01Tep4AYXZvyBA7jsvne5KZV, os-bill), 2026-09-09T04:3xZ, replying to batch #105 in which this card was item 5 with the four-facet block and 速读 at 5595505897 recommending A. Reply, verbatim: 「16934 关闭 ;其他同意」 — item 5 = A.

    Ruled. Each live seam gets its own disposition; ⛔ not a uniform sweep (C refused), ⛔ not only the revoke site (B refused):

    • packages/plugins/plugin-security/src/auto-org-admin-grant.ts — tryFind (:151) and the sys_member read that feeds the revoke branch (:602 → :713 ff.): a read fault skips that user for the round, never enters the revoke branch, and reports at error; a genuine empty read keeps today's behaviour. A transient fault must never withdraw a standing grant (the p1 mechanism measured at 5552131360 §7).
    • packages/plugins/plugin-security/src/normalize-managed-by.ts:53 — a read fault refuses the normalisation pass for that batch and reports at error; it never answers "already canonical".
    • packages/plugins/plugin-security/src/claim-seed-ownership.ts:177 — untouched: measured correct at 5553806224 (the fault propagates to the pass's own per-predicate handler, reported at warn with the consequence).

    Execution. Card → pm:queue in domain:services in one write; finding dropped (graded bug / priority:p1, 定级即离标). Dispatch shape for the services seat: Clause-②: no — a pull-back to the declared read-seam rule, no public surface widens (#16349 directional ruling); tests per site: injected read fault ⇒ revoke branch not called + error report; normalise batch refused + error report; positive controls — a genuine empty answer still proceeds exactly as today at both sites; third site zero diff. The earlier round's branch claude/issue-15840-plugin-security-read-seam-invention and its report 5553806224 are the dispatching seat's to reuse or retire — ⛔ not rebuilt blind.

    Governing text: AGENTS.md:950 (the read-seam invention rule); #15092 (gap vs drop); #15094 / #15598 triage (N instances prove the class, never one rule for all).

    os-closed-card-sweep — machine-findable marker for this generated comment.

    Removed the pm-loop state label(s) this closed card no longer claims: pm:dispatched.

    A state label claims work is in flight. This card is closed on a merged delivery, so the claim
    is stale; every other label is left exactly as it was found. Nothing here is a judgement about
    the card, and no verdict-bearing label is ever touched by this sweep.
