QA run · ux-conventions (3/3) · 5b14b7f3 · 2026-10-19 · 1 PASS / 0 PARTIAL / 2 FAIL / 0 BLOCKED / 0 NOT-RUN #24570

Run record for the 18.0 release sweep, selector ux-conventions (resolved with node scripts/checklist-select.mjs area:ux-conventions --json), plan B (Tier 1 + Tier 2; Tier 3 deferred).

Environment fingerprint

• framework: 5b14b7f3ad8e2e0786d228772f473d07b36b2477 (objectstack-ai/objectstack main), working tree clean
• console: .objectui-sha = 4016370af3c9c9dafec2bc5299afd8e8079701b8, built with pnpm objectui:build; packages/console/dist/.objectui-sha stamp equals the pin (pnpm check:console-sha green), so the stale-console-bundle trap is ruled out for every console observation
• app: showcase (examples/app-showcase), canonical boot OS_PORT=PORT pnpm -C examples/app-showcase exec objectstack dev --ui --seed-admin -p PORT -d file:/tmp/qa18/ITEM/data.db; every hand-driven item had its own port and file DB (listed per item below); seed: --seed-admin (admin@objectos.ai) + showcase seed + per-item scratch fixtures
• Tier 1 pins: vitest per package against the same tree (pnpm exec vitest run FILES), 97 framework files / 2209 tests, 0 failed; objectui-side pins run inside a clone of objectui at 4016370af3c9 (unit vitest + playwright.live.config.ts against a showcase boot on :47431 through the objectui console dev server), RUNNER option (b)
• browser: Playwright with /opt/pw-browsers/chromium, own context per persona, sign-in through the form
• timestamps: 2026-10-19, environment prep 12:26–12:43 UTC, testing 12:43–13:53 UTC; Tier 2 items were driven in parallel by sub-runners (≤ 3–4 browser items at once), each on its own port/DB

Scope

Selector ux-conventions → 3 runnable item(s). Blocked items hidden by the resolver were not run (no --include-blocked).

Tiering (checklist-test SKILL §1): Tier 1 = item carries automated.ref (pin run, cited); Tier 2 = unpinned P0/P1 (hand-driven); Tier 3 = unpinned P2 (deferred, not-run).

Per-clause verdicts

A = acceptance[n], N = negative[n]. Tier 1 rule: a clause is pass only when a passing pin covers it (server-side oracles, or clauses the ref names); clauses a ref says it does not cover, and UI-oracle clauses a server-side pin cannot see, are not-run. Evidence is text from the oracle — no images.

ux-conventions.write-feedback — fail (hand-driven (port 47441 · file:/tmp/qa18/wf/data.db · member minted via invite + sign-up))

ux-conventions.disabled-control-reason — pass (hand-driven (port 47442 · file:/tmp/qa18/dc/data.db))

ux-conventions.labels-over-machine-names — fail (hand-driven (port 47443 · file:/tmp/qa18/lm/data.db · scratch package com.qa18.lmscratch))

Reproduction rules (one per fail)

ux-conventions.write-feedback · acceptance[3] + negative[2] — a refused kanban move is announced as a success to assistive technology

1. Boot the canonical showcase (stock seed). Sign in through the form as admin@objectos.ai.
2. Open /_console/apps/com.example.showcase/showcase_task/view/showcase_task.board.
3. With real pointer events (mouse down → move → up), drag a card from Backlog or To Do onto the Done column (the task_status_flow state machine refuses that transition).
4. Network: PATCH /api/v1/data/showcase_task/ID body {"status":"done"} → 400 (Invalid task status transition.). Visible UI: error toast with that text; the card reverts; GET /api/v1/data/showcase_task/ID shows the status unchanged.
5. Read the board's dnd-kit live region ([role=status] with aria-live="assertive", id DndLiveRegion-0, visually hidden): it holds Moved CARD to Done.

• Expected: a refused move must not announce a completed move — no success claim in any feedback region in the same capture window (the item's step 2 names role=status regions explicitly). Actual: the live region claims the move.
• Reproduced 3× on fresh loads. Automation self-check: real pointer events; mechanism read in objectui source at the pin — packages/plugin-kanban/src/kanbanDndAnnouncements.ts onDragEnd returns kanban.dnd.moved whenever the target column differs from the home column, synchronously and independent of the write outcome.
• Disposition: product defect (objectui, plugin-kanban). Extracted at close-out.

ux-conventions.labels-over-machine-names · acceptance[0] — two Studio surfaces show machine names where labels exist

(a) Explain access — Principal resolution:

1. Admin → Studio → any package → Access → Explain access.
2. User = a member (minted by invite + sign-up), Object = any object, Operation = Read → Explain.
3. Under Evaluation pipeline → Principal resolution, the Contributed by: chips read org_member, everyone, showcase_member_default, member_default.

• Expected: labels (GET /api/v1/meta/position/org_member → Organization Member; GET /api/v1/meta/permission/member_default → Member — Standard Access), name secondary if shown. Actual: machine names only. 2 fresh loads.

(b) Studio flow header:

1. Open /_console/studio/com.example.showcase/automations?surface=flow%3Ashowcase_resilient_sync (also any record-triggered flow).
2. Header subtitle reads Trigger: Record updated · showcase_task.

• Expected: the object label Task (the start-node inspector on the same page shows Task). 2 fresh loads.
• Disposition: product defect (objectui, Studio). Extracted at close-out (one card for the family).

ux-conventions.labels-over-machine-names · acceptance[3] — platform help text names a TypeScript type

1. Open /_console/studio/com.example.showcase/automations?surface=flow%3Ashowcase_resilient_sync.
2. Click the Push with retry (try/catch) node; read the inspector's Error Variable help text.

• Actual: Variable holding the caught error in the catch region — a \TryCatchErrorValue`: `nodeId`, `message`, and `iteration` / `item` …— a TypeScript type name in the normal authoring form (not the Advanced JSON editor). Source:packages/services/service-automation/src/builtin/try-catch-node.tsline 75 (the node'sconfigSchemadescription). The spec's ownerrorVariable describe (packages/spec/src/automation/control-flow.zod.ts`) does not carry it.
• Expected: plain-language help with no type name. 2 fresh loads.
• Disposition: product defect (objectstack, service-automation). Extracted at close-out.

Derived item verdicts

• ux-conventions.write-feedback — fail (A3, N2); A5 blocked(fixture): no stock surface offers Undo.
• ux-conventions.disabled-control-reason — pass.
• ux-conventions.labels-over-machine-names — fail (A0 two new rows, A3).

Checklist-accuracy findings / fixture gaps (for the wave anchor card)

• write-feedback knownGaps[1]: the Studio Discard row is no longer an expected FAIL at objectui 4016370a — the toast reads Draft discarded: QA Widget (label) and the confirm uses the label; move it to a regression row and check whether objectui#12690 can close.
• write-feedback: showcase_task has no create-time validation rule, so "break a validation rule on create" is driven through the update-time state machine (kanban move); the member persona holds no update/delete on showcase_task (direct PATCH → 403), so the member inline-edit / bulk-delete / kanban rows cannot be driven on stock.
• write-feedback: package create and object "Save as draft" give navigation feedback, no toast — not listed variants.
• disabled-control-reason knownGaps[1]: the expected FAILs objectui#12303 (field inspector) and objectui#12691 (validation editor) no longer reproduce at 4016370a (focusable described panel wrapper + tooltip on focus) — move them to regression rows.
• labels-over-machine-names knownGaps[0]: the expected FAILs objectui#12693 (a) and (b) no longer reproduce at 4016370a. Seen, not in the listed variants: Audit Log Object column shows object names, the flow entry-condition field selects show status / previous.status, lookup filter help reads every sys_user record, Explain Object select shows QA Widget (qalm_widget) at equal weight — a future revision decides scope.
