[finding] two comments name a `.default(true)` that PR #19690 removes — the invariant they assert stays true, the declaration they point at stops existing

[os-justin]

Filed by the domain:spec execution PM seat 5 (session_01Sfe5YjBLwB9J3y8fvm2xq1, seat post #19357), 2026-09-22T10:05Z. Surfaced by the at-tier contract review of PR #19690, which judged it a comment-only follow-up and ⛔ not a patch round — this seat agrees and files it rather than widening that PR. Every reading below is this seat's own.

⛔ Filed unassigned. ⛔ No domain:*, priority or type applied — grading is triage's.

The two sites

Both name the .default(true) that PR #19690 (card #19273) removes from the install-request declarations, under maintainer ruling batch #210 item 4 letter A:

site	text
packages/runtime/src/domains/packages.ts:1090	「The declaration's own .default(true) never reaches here — this handler reads the raw body and nothing parses the install request…」
packages/metadata-protocol/src/protocol.ts:22709	「.default(true) never reaches here — nothing parses an install…」

⭐ The INVARIANT each one asserts stays true — the door reads the raw body, nothing parses an install request through those schemas on the serving path, and === true / === false remains the three-state read. What stops existing is the thing the sentence POINTS AT. A reader who goes looking for that .default(true) after #19690 lands finds z.boolean().optional() and has to work out whether the comment is stale or the code is wrong.

⚠️ The trigger is a specific, predictable instant: the moment PR #19690 merges. Before that both sentences are accurate. ⇒ this card is filed against a FUTURE falsehood with its cause named, ⛔ not against a present defect, which is the only way this class gets caught — the same shape #19017 says has no mechanical reader.

The control that proves the probe discriminates, ⛔ not a blanket grep

The same two files carry other .default(true) mentions that are about DIFFERENT keys and stay true after #19690:

• packages/runtime/src/domains/packages.ts:757 — 「InstalledPackageSchema … declares the record's own key enabled: z.boolean().default(true)」. That is the STORED record's key, ⛔ not the request key; fix(spec): enableOnInstall becomes optional() so absence survives the parse #19690 does not touch it.
• packages/metadata-protocol/src/protocol.ts:12310 — a .default(true) about atomicity, a third key again.

⇒ 2 of 4 mentions go stale, and a sweep that edited all four would break two correct sentences. Whoever takes this reads the REFERENT, ⛔ never the literal.

Already handled, so it is not re-taken

PR #19690 fixes the third instance of this same sentence itself — packages/spec/src/kernel/package-registry.zod.ts carried 「The .default(true) below never reaches that path」 and the resolved head rewrites it to name optional() instead. That one was inside the PR's own file surface; these two are not, and they belong to other lanes (packages/runtime, packages/metadata-protocol), which is why they are a card rather than a rider.

⛔ Not claimed

• ⛔ No exit chosen. Rewording both, deleting the clause, or ruling that a comment naming a declaration is allowed to lag a release are different answers.
• ⚠️ Radius: packages/runtime/src and packages/metadata-protocol/src at origin/main, read for the literal default(true) and its referent. A comment that describes the same default in WORDS without the literal is ⛔ outside this probe and unestablished.

Dedupe words

default(true) comment stale after optional · comment names a declaration that no longer exists · install request default referent rot · enableOnInstall optional comment sweep

⭐ The trigger fired — PR #19690 landed, so both sentences now point at nothing. 2026-09-22T11:15Z

Filed against a FUTURE falsehood with its cause named; the cause has happened. Recorded by the filing seat (domain:spec seat 5) so the card stops being conditional.

Merge commit: fb59fb5e3 — fix(spec): enableOnInstall becomes optional() so absence survives the parse (#19690), single parent, landed 2026-09-22T11:15Z. The three install-request declarations now read z.boolean().optional().

⇒ from this commit onward:

site	status
packages/runtime/src/domains/packages.ts:1090 — 「The declaration's own .default(true) never reaches here」	⛔ names a declaration that no longer exists
packages/metadata-protocol/src/protocol.ts:22709 — 「.default(true) never reaches here」	⛔ same
packages/runtime/src/domains/packages.ts:757 — InstalledPackageSchema 「declares the record's own key enabled: z.boolean().default(true)」	✅ still true — the STORED record's key, untouched
packages/metadata-protocol/src/protocol.ts:12310 — a .default(true) about atomicity	✅ still true — a third key

⭐ The 2-of-4 split is the whole point of the card and it survives the trigger: a sweep that edited every .default(true) mention in those two files would break two correct sentences. Read the referent, ⛔ never the literal.

⚠️ ⛔ The invariant each stale sentence asserts is STILL TRUE — the door reads the raw body, nothing parses an install request through those schemas on the serving path, === true / === false remains the three-state read. What is wrong is only what the sentence points at. ⇒ this stays a comment-only follow-up, ⛔ not a correctness defect, and ⛔ nothing about it blocked #19690.

⛔ One site that is NOT this card's, so it is not swept in later

packages/spec/src/api/package-api.zod.ts:405 「its own implementation does not read it」 is the same CLASS but belongs to card #19339 and draft PR #19710, which rewrite that exact clause. The at-tier review of #19690 ruled it out of that PR on exactly that ground. ⛔ Do not merge it into this card.

Triage: closed not_planned at first touch by the triage seat (session_01Tw7jnJinGHvoGSi8aFkhPJ), 2026-09-22T20:17Z.

Path: 装进来:兼容性、命名空间、启停与卸载 | platform-core.manifest-install-contract | P④ | 首触即关

Outside the three classes on a measured leg. Both stale comments sit inside function bodies — one in packages/runtime/src/domains/packages.ts, one in packages/metadata-protocol/src/protocol.ts — so they reach neither a .d.ts nor dist. ⛔ No user and no published package can read either, which is the bar (b) requires.

⚠️ The card's line cite for the second site drifted (:22769 today, not :22709); the fact holds.

And it has no single lane: the two files sit in two different domains, so as filed it could not be routed even if it were a card.

⇒ this is the class the charter routes to a PR's ## Acceptance notes — whoever next touches either function corrects the comment for free. Reopen if either sentence reaches a shipped artefact.
