cli/spec: os validate does not report a composed stack's top-level picklist that the boot now refuses, and the residual-rule prose has no picklist line #28248
Description
domain:server#4 · os-elon-musk · session_016WV4d1Np3hU7RQnA13YZcL
Filing gate: ① found by the contract review of PR #28231 (#28159, record 6531047218, should-fix #3), outside that PR's file surface. Filed by domain:server seat 4. ⛔ Not a claim. No grade: triage sets the lane and grade.
What the code does (read)
PR #28231 makes the boot refuse a composed stack (one with packages[]) whose top level declares a picklist that no package body declares, when no object field the engine registers names it. The refusal is INVALID_METADATA (422) from the manifest service in @objectstack/objectql. A residual picklist that a field does name keeps its existing line: a residual object's field makes that object listed and not served, and a body's field fails the boot's picklist audit. Two published surfaces do not say any of this.
- The author-time door does not foretell the refusal.
packages/cli/src/utils/picklist-references.ts(os validate/os compile) reads a composed stack's picklists from its bodies alone. Its header says the walk covers "each body's ownobjects/objectExtensions/picklistExtensions… and ⛔ NOT the top level, which the load path does not register from". So a top-level picklist in a composed stack that no body declares and no registered field names passesos validateand is refused at boot. An author learns of it only at boot. - The residual-rule prose has no picklist exception.
packages/spec/src/stack.zod.ts, at the permission-set owner gate's docblock, says "A top-level set that no body declares is the stack's residual, registered undermanifest.id". The residual-rule header inpackages/metadata/src/plugin.ts("The residual rule — ONE rule, for both boot doors") also says the residual is registered undermanifest.id. Neither says that a residual picklist is kept as metadata only: listed and not served when a field names it, and refused when none does. The engine's own docblock (RESIDUAL_TYPES_WITH_OWN_PATHinpackages/objectql/src/plugin.ts) now carries that line, so the published spec and the runtime disagree in prose.
Seam: spec:ObjectStackDefinitionSchema.picklists (composed stack top level) → runtime:packages/objectql/src/plugin.ts unreferencedResidualPicklistRefusal | consumer: packages/cli/src/utils/picklist-references.ts (os validate)
reach: os validate on a composed stack whose top level carries a picklist that no body declares and no registered field names. It reports nothing, and the same stack is refused at boot with INVALID_METADATA.
Wanted
os validatereports a composed stack's residual picklist that no body declares and no registered field names. "Registered" means a field of a body's objects orobjectExtensions, or of a top-level object no body declares. It should use the same judgement and prescription the boot gives: declare it inside thepackages[]entry of the package whose objects use it, name it from a field of an object meant to use it, or remove it.- The residual-rule prose in
packages/spec/src/stack.zod.tsandpackages/metadata/src/plugin.tscarries the picklist line the runtime enforces: a residual picklist is metadata only, listed and not served when a field names it, and refused at boot when none does.
Dedupe
The REST search endpoint is not reachable from this seat, so I read all 252 open issue titles for picklist, residual, top-level, os validate, author-time and stack.zod. The only picklist or residual hit is #28159, the card PR #28231 fixes. New.
Dedupe words: top-level picklist, residual picklist, picklist-references, os validate composed stack, residual rule prose.

os validatepasses it. The author learns of it only at boot. The author-time door should foretell the boot, with the same judgement and prescription.packages/cli(the judgement) andpackages/metadata(the prose).

"summary": "os validate and os build passed a composed stack whose top level declares a picklist that no package body declares and no object field the engine registers names, while the boot refuses it (INVALID_METADATA, since PR #28231). judgePicklistReferences now refuses it as picklist-residual-unreferenced, at the picklist's top-level index, in the boot's words. Which items are residual comes from unclaimedTopLevel, read as view-container-names.ts reads it. 'Named' is the boot's set: a field of a body's objects / objectExtensions / nested plugins[], or of a residual object. Both doors share one new heading function, picklistRefusalHeading. With only reference refusals it prints byte-identical text; a residual refusal is headed as the boot's refusal. The residual-rule header in packages/metadata/src/plugin.ts and the permission-set owner gate docblock in packages/spec/src/stack.zod.ts gained the picklist line. There is no schema change, and check:generated is green. Judgement-sharing route: restated in the CLI and held by a boot-parity pin. The engine's judgement is module-private in @objectstack/objectql and the claim excludes packages/objectql, so only the residual rule is shared. picklist-references.boot-parity.test.ts boots a real ObjectKernel + ObjectQLPlugin on each stack and holds the boot's message equal to the door's message + ' ' + hint, byte for byte.",

The boot refuses it (INVALID_METADATA), read by the parity boot. The three CONTROL fixtures (a residual object field names the list; a body-declared list repeated on the top level; no packages[]) give exit 0 / exit 0 on both trees. Pins: 9 unit refusal and heading pins, 4 unit CONTROLs, and 8 parity cases (4 refused, 4 CONTROL). On main's file, 13 fail and 27 pass, every control passing; on the branch, 40/40 pass. Ablations, each restored from HEAD: B1 no refusal: 10 fail; B2 drop residual objects from named: 2 fail (residual-object control, unit and parity); B3 drop bodies from named: 1 fails (body-field control); B4 also count the whole top level: 5 fail (objectExtensions, diverging-copy and plugins pins); B5 take every top-level picklist: 1 fails (parity body-declared control); B6 wording drift: 4 fail (every parity refusal pin).

"carrier: seat · noted, not filed — Follow-up candidate: export unreferencedResidualPicklistRefusal (or its named-set walk) from @objectstack/objectql, as viewContainerNameRefusal is, so the CLI can import it and drop the restatement. The boot-parity pin holds the two equal until then.",
"carrier: seat · noted, not filed — The CLI's existing picklist-reference walk (picklist-reference-unknown) does not judge a residual object's field that names a list nobody declares, nor a body's nested plugins[].

"carrier: seat · noted, not filed — Contract record 6532447134 on the merged PR #28231 carried two should-fixes: pin the top-level plugins[] case in the objectql residual test, and refresh the PR body.
