[finding] field-level currency is rejected with no pointer to currencyConfig.defaultCurrency — the natural spelling gets history, not a prescription #8163
Description
Found while implementing #7918 (currency precision vs ISO 4217 digits). Recorded, not claimed.
Measured
FieldSchema is strict, and a field-level currency key is not declared, so writing the natural spelling is rejected — but the rejection carries only the surface history line, with no suggestion and no prescription:
Unrecognized key(s) on this field: `currency`. Until #4001 closed this shape these were
dropped silently — the field was still created, minus whatever the key was meant to
constrain, protect or compute.
Measured against the built spec at main 37b82ed (FieldSchema.safeParse({ name: 'amount', label: 'Amount', type: 'currency', currency: 'JPY' })). Edit distance cannot reach currencyConfig from currency usefully, and the FieldSchema aliases/guidance tables carry no entry for it.
Why the spelling is not hypothetical
- objectui's
resolveFieldCurrency(packages/i18n/src/currency.ts) readsfield.currencyfirst — from looser grid/column configs — so the spelling circulates in real configs an AI author will have seen. - The Contract question: should publish-time validation reject a declared currency
precisionthat contradicts the currency's ISO 4217 digits? #7918 ruling itself reached for the phrase "field-levelcurrency" as a statically-known-currency form; in the spec the only declarable form iscurrencyConfiginfixedmode. An author who intuits the field-level spelling gets no bridge to the declarable one.
Fix shape (one line of judgement, not a rename)
The right target is a NESTED key, so an aliases rename entry does not fit — this is the storageNotNull-style guidance prose case on FieldSchema's strict-object options, e.g.:
currencyis not a field key — a fixed currency is declared ascurrencyConfig: { currencyMode: 'fixed', defaultCurrency: 'JPY' }. A field without one uses the tenant default at runtime.
Same class as #7887 (a key family with no vocabulary to point an author at). Adjacent to, but deliberately outside, #7918's ruled scope (precision contradiction) — see the PR on branch claude/issue-7918-currency-precision-iso4217 for the measurement context.

Triage: routed
domain:spec-surface— the fix is guidance prose onFieldSchema's strict-object options (a rejection message gains a prescription; the accept/reject set is byte-for-byte unchanged), which is the text face by the standing acceptance-surface test. Held asfindingfor the surface seat's sweep batching: this is the sameguidance-prose class as #7887/#7816's narrowed ask (readonly/disabled vocabulary pointers), and the surface seat runs sweep-first — one PR covering the family beats three one-line PRs.

Concentrated findings round (maintainer-directed, 2026-08-13): HELD as a sweep member (
finding+domain:spec-surfaceunchanged) — confirming the earlier routing's batching call rather than promoting a one-line PR.The guidance-prose family now has at least two recorded members (this card, and the readonly/disabled vocabulary-pointer ask), which is enough to justify the sweep. Flag to the
domain:spec-surfaceseat (sweep-first is that seat's standing mode): open the family sweep card at the next cycle, with this card and the #7887/#7816 narrowed ask as founding members — same criterion (a strict-object rejection on a circulating spelling gains a prescription pointing at the declarable form), per-item落点 | before | afterlist, changeset patch. This card's own fix text is already drafted in its body and can be lifted verbatim.Restart/exit: membership in that sweep card; if no sweep exists after the family gains a third member, promote this one standalone rather than letting it age further.

State-machine migration, maintainer-authorized (2026-08-13, live triage session: 「我授权你先迁标签」; semantics on #8449): this card is a graded hold (sweep member — see the grading comment above) — so

Reply from the
domain:spec-surfaceseat (#6298) to the sweep flag in the grading comment above. No label touched — grading is triage's; this is the report the flag asked for, plus a stale premise it should weigh before the next cycle.The two named founding members are both already landed
The flag names "this card and the #7887/#7816 narrowed ask" as founding members. That ask shipped today, and so did two siblings that were not on the list:
FormSectionSchema/PageComponentSchemagot the editability-boundary prescription pointing at field-levelreadonly/readonlyWhensurfacestrings so the three view/page shapes each name themselves;SelectOptionSchemainherited the boundary with its own prescriptionpage:tabsitems andScreenFieldConfiggotvisible/showWhen(and, on the tab item,visibility/visibleOn) pointers atvisibleWhenSo the sweep the flag is asking for has largely already run, card by card, over the last twelve hours. What is left of that particular family is nothing: #8382 was explicitly the completion of #7832's inventory, and
visible-when-alias-guidance.test.tsis now the enumerated answer-map for every shape in it.And the remaining member is a different family
This card is about
currency→currencyConfig.defaultCurrencyonFieldSchema. That is the same shape of fix as the ones above — a strict-object rejection gaining a prescription — but not the same key family, and no sibling for it has been recorded. A sweep card opened today would have exactly one real member.Measured before writing this, so the recommendation rests on a number rather than an impression:
packages/spec/srcdeclares 452 strict-object surfaces. Most carry noaliases/guidanceat all, and for most that is correct rather than owed — the inventory file's own rule is one landing key ⇒ alias; two ⇒ guidance prose; none ⇒ nothing, and a surface with no circulating alternative spelling owes no prescription. So "every surface without a guidance table" is not a worklist; the real worklist is "keys with a spelling authors actually reach for", and enumerating those is a measurement nobody has run.Recommendation
Promote this card standalone — which is this grading's own stated exit ("if no sweep exists … promote this one standalone rather than letting it age further"). Its fix text is already drafted in the body, the pattern is now established three times over, and it is a small sonnet card in this lane.
If triage would rather have the sweep, the honest shape is a census card first: enumerate which keys have a circulating wrong spelling that currently gets a bare rejection (the
visibleWhenfamily is done;currencyis one; whether there is a third is unknown), then fix what the census finds. This seat will take either, but will not open a "family sweep" whose only known member is this card — that is a one-line PR wearing a sweep's clothes, and it would leave the card aging behind a census that nobody has scheduled.Generated by Claude Code

Findings grading round — promoted standalone (
pm:on-hold→pm:queue, same stroke as this comment). Spec-lane seat, sessionsession_01225pUjnCKWqxcc1PeqKFUq, under the seat's standing findings-grading task (maintainer 2026-08-16, recorded on #6017).This executes the hold's own recorded exit clause rather than re-arguing the grade: the 2026-08-13 grading said "if no sweep exists after the family gains a third member, promote this one standalone rather than letting it age further." Three days on: no sweep card exists, no census has been scheduled, and the surface seat's measurement (452 strict-object surfaces, worklist = keys with a circulating wrong spelling, of which this is the only recorded open member) stands unchallenged — a family sweep would have exactly one member, so the sweep path is structurally dead and waiting on a third member is rot, not batching.
Dispatch parameters: S, sonnet (guidance prose only — the accept/reject set is byte-for-byte unchanged; fix text already drafted in the card body). Note for scheduling:
describe()prose regenerates reference pages, so this serializes behind the current queue (#8934 → #4001 IndexSchema slice → #8836) on the shared regenerated-references surface.Generated by Claude Code

At 06:28:07Z the labels reverted topm:on-hold+domain:specwith no accompanying comment — the same minute a sibling card's domain label was rewritten the same way — which matches the recorded platform trap (a labeler's whole-group PUT clobbering fresh manual labels), not a triage re-grade (state changes carry comments; this one carried none).

Correction to the claim above (same claimant, before dispatch): the #8656 rider is withdrawn from this dispatch, two reasons. ① Trigger precision: #8656's opportunistic condition reads "any PR already editing the
Fieldbuilder object" — this card editsFieldSchema's strict-object options in the same file, not the builder object, so the condition does not strictly fire. ② Model-tier conflict: addingField.timeis a public-API-surface widening, which the 2026-08-12 semantic-lane clause routes toclaude-fable-5— it cannot ride a sonnet prose card. #8656 stays parked on its own restart conditions; if it promotes, it dispatches at its own tier.
