+fix: the whole-day bound on a bare `YYYY-MM-DD` upper bound is applied at the seams only — `DatabaseLoader.queryHistory` in driver mode becomes one, the engine seam lowers type-blind for an object with no field map, and `InMemoryDriver` drops its own copy (ADR-0053 D-D1 items 5 and 7, #20822)
+
+Clause-②: no
+
+- **`@objectstack/metadata` — `DatabaseLoader.queryHistory` in driver mode lowers its own filter.** With a raw `IDataDriver` (`MetadataManager.setDatabaseDriver`) the history filter reaches the driver without passing any seam. The loader now runs the shared `lowerFilterCondition` (`@objectstack/spec/data`) on it, typed by the history object it syncs: `until: 'YYYY-MM-DD'` reads `recorded_at < next day`, so every version recorded on that day is kept on every driver, and an instant `until` is kept as written. Engine mode is unchanged (the engine's own `where` seam lowers it). Before this, the whole day was kept only by each driver's own copy of the rule; with `@objectstack/driver-memory`'s copy deleted below, `until` = today would have gone from every version of the day to none.
+- **`@objectstack/objectql` — an object with no field map is lowered type-blind.** The engine's `where` seam (on `find`, `findOne`, `count`, `update`, `delete` and `aggregate`'s `where` / `aggregations[i].filter`) reads the object's declared field map and rewrites a declared `datetime` column only. For an object the registry does not hold there is no declaration to read, and the seam now applies the whole-day rules to every column (a bare-day `$lte` becomes `$lt` the next day, a `$between` splits), as ADR-0053 D-D1 item 7 rules for a seam that cannot read the declared type. It used to leave such an object to each driver's own copy. Visible on `SqlDriver`: a bare-day `$lte` on a non-`datetime` column of an unregistered object that holds ISO instant text now keeps the whole day; a `datetime` or `date` column answers as before. An object with a field map is unchanged.
+- **`@objectstack/driver-memory` — `InMemoryDriver` compiles the comparison it is handed.** Its four copies of the whole-day rule are deleted (the `$lte` and `$between` arms of the filter translator, the `<=` and `between` arms of the AST-node translator). Every seam hands it the lowered filter, so a declared `datetime` column keeps the whole named day, and a declared `date` column answers as before. Two answers converge on what `SqlDriver` already returns (ADR-0053 D-D1 item 7's scope): on a registered object, a bare-day `$lte` / `$between` on a declared `text` column holding ISO instant text, or on a column the object does not declare, is now compared as written, where this driver used to widen it to the whole day. A direct `find()` that passed no seam gets the comparison it wrote (item 5); lower the filter with `lowerFilterCondition` first to keep the whole-day reading.
