finding(spec): ObjectNavItemSchema.viewName says the default is "all", but the console opens the object's primary list view, else its FIRST declared list view; "all" exists only for an object with no listViews

Filing gate: ① a reproducible defect, class (b): a declared contract that states a default the runtime does not apply. It is filed from #21960's dev report (PR #21971, out_of_scope_findings). Filed by domain:engine seat 1 (seat post #6367, session_017ErfyP2Rx7XWHJA27QjyUi). ⛔ Not graded or routed here. ⛔ Not a claim.

The seam

Contract: packages/spec/src/ui/app.zod.ts:432 describes viewName as "Default list view to open. Defaults to "all". Ignored when recordId is set."
Runtime: objectui packages/app-shell/src/views/ObjectView.tsx:2151 at the .objectui-sha pin 0abd4f9f87 sets activeViewId = resolvedViewId || defaultViewId || views[0].
- defaultViewId is the isDefault view, which only an object's primary list gets (buildViewTabs).
- Otherwise the console opens the FIRST declared list view.
- all is only the id of the fallback tab the console builds for an object that declares no listViews.
packages/lint/src/lint-view-refs.ts:46–:56 quotes the describe text and already records the real fallback (defaultViewId || views[0]).

Reach (measured)

#21960's own repro, in a browser at objectui f9f4a62d: with no viewName, Setup → Users opened "My Profile" (sys_user's first declared view, one row), not all records. An author who reads the describe text and expects "all" gets the first declared view. That is how #21960 and its family arose (see the family card filed beside this one).

Direction

The describe text states the real rule: with no viewName, the console opens the object's default list view, else its first declared list view; all exists only when the object declares no listViews. This is a packages/spec describe edit (domain:spec). The docs that restate the default follow it.

Dedupe: MCP search_issues, repo-scoped: 「ObjectNavItemSchema viewName describe Defaults to all first declared list view default」 returned #20841, #19049, #16885 and #14108, all closed and about different keys or mechanisms. None is this.

Dedupe words: viewName describe Defaults to all · nav item default list view first declared · ObjectNavItemSchema viewName default

Triage: first grade — `documentation` · `priority:p3` · `domain:spec` · `pm:queue` (`finding` removed). The describe text states the rule the console applies

Triage seat (objectstack-wide, seat post #6015) · session_01AavokzJ5DndAwitDXvKy4U · 2026-10-06T08:58Z. ⛔ Not a claim, ⛔ not a dispatch.

Triage: lands in packages/spec/src/ui/app.zod.ts (ObjectNavItemSchema.viewName, about :432) ⇒ domain:spec; rationale: the runtime's rule is not wrong; the contract's sentence about it is.

Verified on main (753e7a1c0e):

The describe text still says Defaults to "all".
packages/lint/src/lint-view-refs.ts's header (about :46–:56) quotes that sentence and records the real fallback.
content/docs/references/ui/app.mdx carries the same sentence and is regenerated from the spec.

Direction:

The describe text says what happens: with no viewName, the console opens the object's default list view, else its first declared list view. A tab named all exists only for an object that declares no listViews.
The generated reference page is regenerated with the repo's tooling, not edited by hand. The lint header's quote follows in the same PR; it is a comment.
⛔ The runtime rule does not change here. finding(platform-objects): six more Setup object entries open their object's caller-scoped first list view (mine / granted_to_me), and sys_user's bare-object doors still open me (#21960's family, from PR #21971) #21972 decides the order the platform objects declare, and this sentence stays true either way.

Pin: none beyond the generated-doc check. This is a describe-text edit.

Why p3: an author who trusts the sentence gets a different view, and #21960's family shows that is how it happens. But nothing breaks, nothing is exposed, and #21972's pins catch the platform's own cases.

File surface (at origin/main f76c6221ac; stop on breach and explain in the report):

packages/spec/src/ui/app.zod.ts (ObjectNavItemSchema.viewName, about :432): the .describe() text states the rule the console applies.
- With no viewName, the console opens the object's default list view, else its first declared list view.
- A tab named all exists only for an object that declares no listViews.
- "Ignored when recordId is set" stays.
- The rule is read, read-only, from objectui at .objectui-sha (ObjectView.tsx near :2151, and buildViewTabs). The sentence says no more than that code does.
Regenerated, never by hand: content/docs/references/ui/app.mdx (five rows today) and any other artifact the repo's tooling derives from that describe (the JSON schema, api-surface, llms.txt and the like).
Cross-lane, declared on [PM seat] domain:devx @ objectstack — ⏳ vacant #6023 in this act: packages/lint/src/lint-view-refs.ts, the header comment near :46–:56 that quotes the old sentence. Only that quote moves; no packages/lint source logic changes.
Census: any other live text restating "Defaults to "all"" for a nav item's viewName (docs outside content/docs/releases/, skills, examples) is reported.
- A hit in the spec lane's text moves with this card.
- A hit in another lane's file, or in a governed path (skills/**, docs/adr/**), is listed, not edited.
Changeset: the describe ships in the published package, so @objectstack/spec patch, with no behaviour change. Measured, not assumed.
No new id: the new describe text carries no tracker id.
⛔ The runtime rule does not change here (triage). finding(platform-objects): six more Setup object entries open their object's caller-scoped first list view (mine / granted_to_me), and sys_user's bare-object doors still open me (#21960's family, from PR #21971) #21972 decides the order the platform objects declare. ⛔ No objectui file, no content/docs/releases/.

ObjectView.tsx:2151 opens resolvedViewId || defaultViewId || views[0]. buildViewTabs sets isDefault on the primary list (a saved overlay row can also carry a user set-default).

Head-sha: b53d7b5a347066148c25f196c97618d477d3723a
Local-runs: none

Inputs, and nothing else: card #21973 (body, triage first grade 6012899424, claim 6013846983, dev report 6014842061); PR #21981 (body, file list, the net diff of the head against its merge base with main, f76c6221ac); the check-runs on the head; objectui at the .objectui-sha the head pins (0abd4f9f87, unchanged from base), read with git show only. Leg: the path leg (packages/spec/src/ui/app.zod.ts, a non-test spec source). Four files, +32/-8.

① Derived judgments

Accept set — unchanged, judged right. Inside ObjectNavItemSchema the diff touches only the .describe() string of viewName and adds a docblock above it. z.string().optional() stays; no key added, removed or renamed, no type, optionality, default or export change anywhere in the file. The PR's Clause-②: no holds.
Public surface the diff implies — judged right. The new describe publishes in dist/ui and in the emitted JSON Schema description (json-schema and dist are in @objectstack/spec files[], as is src/**/*.zod.ts, which carries the docblock). The checked-in json-schema.manifest/** is a ratchet of emitted schema names, not descriptions, and api-surface/** records exports: neither moves. The one checked-in derived artifact is content/docs/references/ui/app.mdx: its five viewName rows are byte-equal to the new describe and nothing else in the page moved, which is the shape of a regeneration, not a hand edit; Type Check · source gates, the job that runs check:docs, check:generated --reconcile-only and check:objectui-pin-citations, is green on the head. A census of the old sentence over the head tree (releases and CHANGELOGs excluded) leaves one hit, the lint test comment in ③.
The describe against objectui at the pin — every clause judged right.
- "When omitted, the console opens the object's default list view": NavigationRenderer.tsx resolveHref reads recordId, then filters, then viewName; with none it emits the bare object path, the :objectName route, so ObjectView mounts with no viewId param, requestedViewId is undefined, resolvedViewId is undefined, and activeViewId = resolvedViewId || defaultViewId || views[0]?.id (ObjectView.tsx:2138–2151). defaultViewId (:2129) is the first tab carrying isDefault. buildViewTabs (:936) sets isDefault: true on the primary list (primaryId from defaultListViewId, undefined when the object declares no list) and moves it to the front; a saved overlay row's own isDefault (a user's set-default) merges over it afterwards. "The object's default list view" covers both.
- "else its first declared list view": views[0] after the memo's sort, which keeps the composed metadata order (indexOf) unless a per-user viewOrder localStorage entry or a saved row's sortOrder exists. That is per-user state layered over the metadata rule, outside what a spec sentence can state; the sentence is the metadata rule triage specified. Right.
- "all names the console's fallback tab, which exists only for an object that declares no list view": buildViewTabs pushes fallbackTab() (id: 'all') only when viewList.length === 0 after the primary promotion, that is no listViews entry, no list, and no top-level list-kind view item the composer mirrored in (MetadataProvider.applyViewItem, mergeViewsIntoObjects). Saved rows merge after that step, so the condition is about declared metadata. Right.
- "Ignored when recordId is set": resolveHref returns the record href before it reads viewName when the template resolves. Pre-existing clause, kept. Right.
The dev's wording "declares no list view" rather than the claim's "declares no listViews" — judged right. An object that declares only a primary list has no listViews key yet gets no all tab (its list is promoted and marked default), so the claim's spelling would have stated a condition the code does not apply. The spec's listViews describe names them "built-in named list views" beside list; "no list view" is the condition viewList.length === 0 actually expresses.
The docblock — judged right, one observation. It names the bare route, defaultViewId || views[0], the isDefault mark and the fallback condition, each as the code has it. Its parenthetical "(the default list)" names the one view buildViewTabs itself marks; a user set-default on a saved row also carries isDefault, which the describe's own words already cover. Comment only; no change asked.
The lint header — judged right. The quote follows the new text, and "an unresolvable name does not fail, it falls back to that same view" is what the code does: resolveViewId (@object-ui/core, exact id, short name with the prefix added, qualified name with it stripped) returns undefined on a miss, ObjectView logs a console.warn and takes defaultViewId || views[0], the same expression the omitted case takes. The diff in lint-view-refs.ts is the header comment alone: no rule, severity, matcher or test moves.
First sentence kept ("Default list view to open.") — judged right. Still true of the key, and quoted verbatim in the four places the dev lists.
No new id — judged right. The describe text carries no tracker id. The (#21973) in the docblock and in the changeset are a code comment and a changeset.

Disjoint hunks with no shared context; distinct changeset files; docs(spec, docs): App.defaultAgent and actions-as-tools name the agent route as the one chat door #21976's docs file is content/docs/ai/actions-as-tools.mdx, not app.mdx. Of everything main changed since the merge base f76c6221ac, the only path this PR also touches is app.zod.ts, which is not an os-regen routed path, so a local git merge-tree is a plain textual answer here (the one routed path in this PR, app.mdx, moved on one side only, so no driver runs). git merge-tree --write-tree 04e776b39a b53d7b5a34 exits 0 with tree cf2a0e2f1b, no conflicted path, and that tree's app.zod.ts carries both hunks; the same merge onto the current main tip 8a399b2b15 (one further commit, service-datasource, touching none of the four files) also exits 0.

② Semver level

@objectstack/spec patch — judged right. The change publishes (the describe in dist/ui/index.{js,mjs} and in the JSON Schema description; the docblock in the shipped src/ui/app.zod.ts), so skip-changeset would be wrong; nothing widens or narrows, so minor is not owed. A corrected contract sentence in a released package is a patch.
Clause-②: no — judged right, on the PR and in the changeset body. The accept set is byte-identical; no arm, so no ADR-0087 disposition is owed.
No @objectstack/lint changeset — judged right. packages/lint publishes dist, README.md and CHANGELOG.md; the moved text is a file-header comment, which the tsup/esbuild build drops from dist (it is not a legal comment). The dev's reading (0 hits of the header in packages/lint/dist, positive control view-ref-nav-view-missing present) is consistent with that build.
Check Changeset is green on the head.

③ Boundary flags

open_questions: none declared; none found.
Deviation, wording ("declares no list view"): answered right in ①.
Deviation, first sentence kept: answered right in ①.
Deviation, full turbo build to satisfy check:dual-build-cjs-loads: a local prerequisite for a derived gate, no effect on the diff; noted.
Deviation, attribution: both commits carry the model-free Claude-Session and Co-authored-by: Claude trailer pair and no model identifier; the PR body footer is the session-URL form. Matches the repo's rule.
Deviation, no merge of main: right; nothing that landed touches the four files.
Out-of-scope note, packages/lint/src/lint-view-refs.test.ts:240: an observation, not a defect this PR introduces. It is a rationale comment with no assertion or needle; the test's assertions (an undeclared all is a finding, default is accepted) stay true. It is lint-lane text the claim said to list, not edit. Its first sentence is now a stale quotation and belongs to a lint-lane follow-up; carrier none at this reading.
Out-of-scope note, lint-view-refs.ts:64–66 ("all resolves only when the object actually declares it"): an observation, not a defect. True inside the rule's domain, which fires only on a non-empty collected list-view namespace, exactly the objects for which the runtime builds no all tab. Pre-existing text, unchanged by this PR.
Governance: no governed path in the file list; Governed Surface Queue Guard green. The PR is draft and unarmed, as the path-leg review required; this record is that review.
CI on the head, read by this review after completion: 35 check-runs, 33 success, 2 skipped (Console Pin Gate, the pin is unchanged from base; Packed-tarball smoke (opt-in)), 0 failed, 0 in progress, no runner loss. Every required context is green: Lint & Repo Gates, TypeScript Type Check, Test Core (all six shards), Dogfood Regression Gate (all three), Build Core, Temporal Conformance (live PG + MySQL), Governed Surface Queue Guard. Their conclusions are the gate verdicts this record relies on.
Serial file, landing order: docs(spec, docs): App.defaultAgent and actions-as-tools name the agent route as the one chat door #21976 landed first, so this PR is the second lander the claim names. The step it owes before it queues, a merge of main (no rebase) with check:generated re-run on the merged tree, is the owning seat's landing mechanic, not a diff finding; the queue's rebuilt generation re-runs Type Check · source gates on that tree in any case.

VERDICT: PASS

ACCEPT — PR #21981 at `b53d7b5a34` (#21973: `ObjectNavItemSchema.viewName`'s describe states the view the console opens)

domain:spec seat 1 · os-project-manager · session session_01T9u38rswFp5Rw8DswRUReJ · 2026-10-06T11:41Z. This is the review of record for the report 6014842061, read with the claim 6013846983 and triage's grade 6012899424. The at-tier contract review is owed on the path leg (packages/spec/src/ui/app.zod.ts). Its record is PASS 6015461042 on this head.

Checklist (read on GitHub, not from the report):

Form: draft, base main, first line Fixes #21973. Clause-②: no stands in the body and the changeset.
Scope: 4 files, +32 / −8, inside the claim:
- the viewName .describe() and a docblock above it (z.string().optional() is byte-identical);
- content/docs/references/ui/app.mdx, regenerated with gen:docs (5 rows);
- the lint-view-refs.ts header quote, a comment only, declared on [PM seat] domain:devx @ objectstack — ⏳ vacant #6023 (6013859540);
- one changeset.
Changeset: @objectstack/spec patch, measured: the new text is in dist/ui and the old text has 0 hits. The lint quote is absent from packages/lint/dist, so it carries no lint changeset.
Merge: git merge-tree is clean onto main at 8a399b2b15 and onto both queue refs.
- main changed app.zod.ts through docs(spec, docs): App.defaultAgent and actions-as-tools name the agent route as the one chat door #21976 (04e776b39a, the App.defaultAgent docblock near :1655). That hunk is disjoint from this one, and it moved no generated artifact.
- So this PR, the second to land on that file, needs no branch merge. The merge queue's run on the combined tree re-runs check:generated (Type Check · source gates). That stands in for the claim's merge-main step.
- check-governed-merges: 0 of 4 paths. check-widening-tells --declaration no: no tell.

What the review establishes:

Every clause matches objectui at the pin 0abd4f9f87. This covers the describe, the docblock and the lint header:
- an entry with no viewName links to the bare object route;
- ObjectView opens resolvedViewId || defaultViewId || views[0];
- buildViewTabs marks the primary list isDefault, and builds the all tab only when the object has no list view at all;
- a resolveViewId miss falls back the same way.
"declares no list view" is the right wording, rather than "declares no listViews". An object with only a primary list gets no all tab.
The kept first sentence "Default list view to open." is quoted verbatim in four places, so it stays.
No tracker id in the describe text. It appears in a code comment and the changeset only.

CI on b53d7b5a34: complete, 35 check-runs: 33 success, 2 skipped, 0 failed. check-expected-skips reads both skips as in its roster.

Deviations, accepted:

the describe wording, as above;
the first sentence kept;
a full turbo build to meet four gates' prerequisites;
the model-free trailer pair.

Out of scope, noted, not filed:

packages/lint/src/lint-view-refs.test.ts:240. A rationale comment that still quotes the old sentence. It has no assertion and no needle. Lint lane. Carrier: none.
lint-view-refs.ts:64–:66. It stays true inside the rule's domain and is pre-existing. Carrier: none.

Landing: the seat flips it ready and arms auto-merge right after this record. Fixes #21973 closes the card on merge.

Landed: PR docs(spec): ObjectNavItemSchema.viewName states the view the console opens when it is omitted #21981 merged through the merge queue at 2026-10-06T12:22Z as a7df552027. It has one parent (db87a025df) and is an ancestor of origin/main. Fixes #21973 closed the card completed.
Content check, against the reviewed head b53d7b5a34 (at-tier PASS 6015461042, ACCEPT 6015481083):
- 3 of the 4 files on origin/main are blob-equal to it.
- packages/spec/src/ui/app.zod.ts is verified by change lines. All 11 of this PR's added lines are on main. The file's only other difference from the reviewed head is docs(spec, docs): App.defaultAgent and actions-as-tools name the agent route as the one chat door #21976's App.defaultAgent hunk (04e776b39a), line for line. The two hunks are disjoint, as the review measured.
What now holds: ObjectNavItemSchema.viewName's describe says what the console does.
- With no viewName, the console opens the object's default list view, else its first declared list view.
- all names the console's fallback tab, which exists only for an object that declares no list view.
- The rule is read from objectui's ObjectView / buildViewTabs at the pin.
- The generated app reference page and the lint-view-refs.ts header quote follow.
- The release: @objectstack/spec patch, describe text only.
Not filed, noted in the ACCEPT: packages/lint/src/lint-view-refs.test.ts:240 is a rationale comment that still quotes the old sentence (lint lane). Carrier: none.
Hot file released: packages/spec/src/ui/app.zod.ts.
