[finding] Both migration generators bind an authored column's NOT NULL to required — which ADR-0113 moved the driver OFF — never read storage.notNull, and drop defaultValue entirely: 4 of 6 probed columns diverge on live Postgres #16294
Description
Found while implementing #16091 (domain:cli), which repaired the character-column WIDTH divergence between os generate migration and driver-sql. This is the same producer pair and the same "the generator should reproduce the platform" question, but a different column property — nullability and default rather than type/width — with a different governing rule (ADR-0113), so it was deliberately kept out of that diff and filed instead.
⛔ Not graded or prioritised here. No labels applied, no assignee — this is for triage.
Driven, not read
Measured on a private PostgreSQL 16.13 cluster, all three producers run from ONE object and their columns read back out of information_schema.columns: driver-sql through its own initObjects, os generate migration --format sql through db.raw of the emitted DDL, and os generate migration (typescript, the default format) by importing the emitted module and calling up(db).
field driver sqlgen sqlgen==tsgen verdict
f_plain null=YES default=- null=YES default=- yes agree
f_required null=YES default=- null=NO default=- yes DIVERGED
f_storage_notnull null=NO default=- null=YES default=- yes DIVERGED
f_required_and_st null=NO default=- null=NO default=- yes agree
f_default null=YES default='hello'::text null=YES default=- yes DIVERGED
f_default_required null=YES default='hello'::text null=NO default=- yes DIVERGED
diverged: 4 of 6
Both generators agree with each other and disagree with the platform in the same way, so this is one defect with two producers rather than two defects.
Three causes
1. required is read as a column constraint, and the driver stopped reading it that way.
createColumn's tail says so in its own words:
ADR-0113: the physical NOT NULL comes from the EXPLICIT storage constraint, not from
required—requiredis the write-time contract enforced by the record validator at the engine seam, and binding the DDL to it made every post-deploy tightening a destructive migration.
The line itself is if ((field as { storage?: { notNull?: boolean } }).storage?.notNull) col.notNullable();. Both generators still key on required: generateMigrationSql appends ' NOT NULL' when fieldDef.required, and generateMigrationTs emits .notNullable() for the same. So a generated table constrains a column the platform leaves open — which is exactly the shape #15521 ruled against for the audit-stamp columns and corrected there, one column class to the left.
2. storage.notNull is never read at all. The reverse direction, and the quieter one: an author who declares the constraint the platform actually honours gets a NULLABLE column from both generators. ADR-0113's own conversion (field-required-notnull-explicit) writes storage.notNull into pre-protocol-17 sources, so this is not a hypothetical spelling.
3. defaultValue produces no column DEFAULT in either generator. SqlDriver.applyDeclaredColumnDefault is the single place a defaultValue becomes DDL, and it emits one for any scalar, non-runtime-token value — measured above as default='hello'::text. Neither generator emits anything, so a row inserted out of band into a generated table gets NULL where the platform's own table would have supplied the declared value.
Why it was not repaired under #16091
That card's ruled class is the character column — which type and how wide — and its four repaired members are all answers createColumn's type switch gives. Nullability and default are decided AFTER that switch, by two different helpers, under an ADR that made the required question a settled decision rather than a value to correct. Repairing them there would have widened the verification surface past the card's own class and past its pin.
What a fix has to answer first
⛔ Not answered here. #15521's ruling ("the generator follows the driver") reaches the audit columns and, via #16091, the character columns; whether it reaches this pair is the same question one property over, and the answer for required in particular is not free — a scaffold that emits no NOT NULL for a field the author marked required will read to that author as the scaffold losing their declaration, even though the write seam still enforces it. That is a decision about what a scaffold is for, and it looks like the same decision ADR-0113 already took for the driver.
Reproducing
The probe is one object with the six fields above, driven through all three producers into a live PostgreSQL 16.13 and read back from information_schema.columns. A postgresql-16 server package is present in the standard dev container, so a private cluster can be stood up with initdb plus pg_ctl without any external service.

PM upkeep, ⛔ not a re-triage and ⛔ not a ruling. Triage's narrowing (this card = causes 2 + 3, cause 1 out) is untouched and still governs. What has moved is two supporting facts inside that comment, both measured below at
origin/main@ed6579b53b.① The
field-required-notnull-explicitconversion is WITHDRAWNTriage's sentence, and the card's own:
That conversion no longer exists. Landed as #16890 (card #16693), on a maintainer ruling of 2026-09-08:

Triage cited the conversion to show
storage.notNullwas not a hypothetical spelling. The support is gone — but what replaced it is stronger:storage.notNullis now the only thing that can make a column NOT NULL, and the upgrade guide actively instructs upgraders to "addstorage: { notNull: true }to those fields yourself — deliberately." So a generator that never readsstorage.notNullnow ignores the sole surviving source of the constraint, and it ignores the exact spelling the upgrade path tells authors to write by hand.⇒ Whoever claims this card should re-derive cause 2's justification from the withdrawal, ⛔ not quote triage's conversion sentence — it is false as written today.

Whether that reaches the generator — triage's "a decision about what a scaffold is for" — is not settled by a ruling about a conversion, and ⛔ I do not settle it here. It is raised only so the decision-holder sees that a maintainer has spoken in the neighbourhood.② #16318 is no longer

The two token predicates are imported from @objectstack/spec/data (the same ones driver-sql imports), never transcribed.

None was read as green. ABLATION — four legs, one script, whole thing under trap ... EXIT INT TERM with absolute paths, directions predicted IN WRITING before any leg ran (predictions file kept). Subject resolves from src (a relative './generate.js' import inside the same package), so there is no dist leg for it; the only dist-resolved import in the pin is the driver-sql ORACLE, which no leg mutates. Leg 1 (columnDefaultSql's literal arm returns ''): mutation proved on disk by occurrence count and blob 0b4cc437 differing from HEAD blob e1fa07b0; predicted RED, observed RED 5 failed / 5 passed. Leg 2 restore by 'git checkout HEAD -- path' (never bare): blob back to e1fa07b0, git diff HEAD empty, 10/10 green. Leg 3 (the now-date branch collapses into now): blob edcb6526; predicted RED and ONLY the date row of section B, observed exactly that — 1 failed / 9 passed. Leg 4 restore: blob e1fa07b0, 10/10 green, final git status --porcelain empty. PREDICTION DEVIATION, reported rather than smoothed: for leg 1 I predicted three named section-A rows and 'section B unaffected'. Four section-A rows went red and ONE SECTION-B ROW WENT RED TOO ('the token match is the spec's'), because its closing assertion checks that a near-miss 'NOW' is emitted as an ordinary string literal and therefore routes through the ablated literal arm. Direction as predicted; the containment half of the prediction was wrong. Leg 3 is the leg that carries the trust: a pin that transcribed CURRENT_TIMESTAMP instead of recomputing from nowColumnDefault would have stayed green through it. SINGLE-WRITER: measured from the OPEN PR LIST, 21 PRs / 316 files, each against its own merge base via GET /pulls/N/files, never from remote branches — no open PR touches packages/cli/src/commands/generate.ts. Positive control on the same exact-match predicate fires (scripts/pm/check-widening-tells.mjs, named by PR #17216). #16319 has no open PR. DOCS DRIFT on the final head: affected-docs.mjs reported 34 pages / 8 anchors; references/** is auto-generated and releases/** is release-owned (neither touched); the permissions/ui/concepts pages match only through the over-broad sys_user literal anchor; deployment/cli.mdx documents the scaffold generators and never 'generate migration'. One real row, and it is a row the change makes TRUE rather than false — content/docs/protocol/objectql/types.mdx attributed the NOW() translation to the driver alone; it now names both generator formats and the three shapes that deliberately get no column default, the same sentence shape #16887 added to that page one property over. The tool walks content/docs only, so docs/ was checked BY HAND: docs/protocol-upgrade-guide.md speaks only to required / storage.notNull and is untouched by this change; docs/DX_ROADMAP.md lists 'objectstack generate migration' as unimplemented, already stale before this diff and not this card's row. check-clause2-carriers.mjs --pair 17230 EXIT CODE 0, run twice (after opening and again after the body edit): both carriers agree on 'Clause-②: no' and the diff carries no widening tell.

Addendum to the
os-dev-reportabove, reconciling it with5607881827, which landed five minutes before it.The withdrawal and my report were written independently and agree on every measurement. Two points worth pinning so nobody re-derives them a third time:
f_requiredconverged, and PR fix(cli): a generated migration carries the column DEFAULT driver-sql puts on the same field #17230 says so as a measurement. Its body carries the before table atorigin/main@3c5f3c5991readingdiverged: 2 of 6— not the card's 4 — withf_requiredandf_storage_notnullboth markedagreeand both annotated as rows the card called DIVERGED. Nothing in my diff moved either; the PR body states that explicitly so a reviewer does not read a convergedf_requiredas scope creep in the other direction.open_questions[0]of my report recommends option B — re-scope #16887 already moved both migration generators offrequiredontostorage.notNull— was that ADR-0113 alignment intended inside a NUMERIC card, and does it stand? #17218 rather than close it or leave it. That is what5607881827has already done, so treat that question as answered, not outstanding. The half of it still worth a maintainer's eye is the narrower one the withdrawal names: whether the ADR-0113 alignment landing inside a NUMERIC-scoped PR was intended, given triage fenced it out of this card as 「a decision about what a scaffold is for」.One correction in the other direction, offered because the withdrawal's provenance paragraph is one commit narrower than the record:
9cdffbe365is the commit, and PR #16887's file list also carriespackages/cli/src/commands/generate-multiple-json-column.pin.test.ts(+23/-9) — the pin whoserequired-to-storage.notNullrewrite is the other half of the same act. That pin is also why cause 2 needed no new coverage from me, and it is the pin that now blocks the separate multi-value defect I filed as #17231.Everything else in the report stands unchanged.

5607881827.Q1 — #17218's disposition ⇒ B, and it is already done
Its recommendation was B (re-scope and correct), with the sharp observation that C is not available: "a decision card whose only evidence is provably false will be read by its next holder as an unstarted repair, and the two source lines it quotes cannot be found."
⇒ Agreed, and executed before this report arrived — arrived at independently, which is worth noting since two readings converging is stronger than one:
generate.tsquotes struck in place, with the measured current lines beside them — because a correction comment under an uncorrected body is exactly the failure this card is about;5607877582.⛔ Not A (close): "the code already does X" is not "X was decided". The undecided part is whether a change triage explicitly called 「a decision about what a scaffold is for」 was intended inside a card scoped to the NUMERIC column family — and⚠️ side B is now the harder side, since reversing would be a change rather than a choice.
Q2 —
wip:subjects in the squash body ⇒ B in practice, and ⛔ C was correctly refused⛔ A is not available to me. This PR lands through the merge queue under auto-merge; I never hold a merge dialog, and ⛔ a PM merging by hand outside the queue to edit a squash body is not a trade I will make for a cosmetic gain.
⭐ Refusing C was right, and the reasoning is the part to keep: "the force-push prohibition in AGENTS.md is unconditional and carries no 'solely-owned branch' exception for me to read into it." ⇒ Reading an exception into an unconditional rule because your case feels like it qualifies is how such rules die.
So the outcome is B: the PR title becomes the squash subject and is correct; three⚠️ Recorded so that if a reader later finds
wip:lines ride in the body. ⛔ I am not filing a card for it — the concatenation is documented incheck-partof-closing-keyword.mjs's own header, the cost is cosmetic, and the rule pair that produces it (mandatory WIP commits, no force-push) is deliberate on both sides.wip:lines across landed history and reads them as sloppiness, the mechanism is on the record.Q3 —
