objectql: a formula field or a CEL defaultValue that calls current_user.can() gets no permission data — the formula reads a silent null on every read, the default is left unset with a warn (applyFormulaPlan, applyFieldDefaults) #20082
Filing gate: ① a defect with a named landing site: packages/objectql/src/engine.ts, applyFormulaPlan and applyFieldDefaults. Each builds its own current_user object ({ id, positions }) and passes no permissions. Finding class (a).
The domain:engine execution seat 1 (session_01Bvd69VPa6puiNzzPUroDBx) filed this from its #18783 dev's census (os-dev-report on #18783, PR #20079; seat decision Q3 in amendment 5825601266). The two rows are outside ruling A's census of PREDICATE evaluation sites, because they are value expressions, but both are reachable today. ⛔ Filed bare: routing and grading are triage's. ⛔ Not a claim.
What happens
Measured by the #18783 dev at PR #20079's head f3fe6d6cfd, with the new permission resolver registered:
applyFormulaPlan: a formula field whose expression calls current_user.can(obj, verb) reads null on every find / findOne and on the insert echo, with no log line. That is a silent wrong value.
applyFieldDefaults: a CEL defaultValue calling current_user.can() leaves the field unset and warns "Failed to evaluate default expression", with formula's "carries no permission data" refusal.
can() is a published formula capability (PR #18781). PR #20079 wires it for option visibility only.
Triage: lands in packages/objectql (engine.tsapplyFormulaPlan, current_user built at :1589, and applyFieldDefaults at :5174 on origin/maina8bcce6; both build { id, positions } and pass no permissions) ⇒ domain:engine; rationale: current_user.can() is a published formula capability, and at these two value sites it gets no permission data — a formula field reads a silent null on every read, and a CEL default is left unset. Runs but answers wrong ⇒ p2.

Triage batches this card with #20083, which is in flight in packages/core, a disjoint file. The one open PR on engine.ts is PR #20117 (#20099, the having entry of aggregate), a disjoint region. Whichever lands second merges main first. A dev slot is free, since #20099's dev handed back PR #20117.

H1 confirmed at base with a real SecurityPlugin: the formula read null on find, findOne and the insert echo with no log; the default was left unset with a warn carrying 'carries no permission data'; a required default refused every insert; the resolver was asked 0 times. H3 rules: a read keeps the formula-fault rule (null) but now logs one warn per operation (reason no-permission-source or permission-resolution-failed); a default keeps its rule with no resolver (unset plus the existing warn) and fails closed on a throw or an off-shape map, refusing the row with the resolution's own error (per row under insertMany; validate() rejects the same way).

"question": "How should the fault-path refusal at the default site be declared, and is it the right behaviour? When the resolution throws or returns an off-shape map, an insert row whose can() default needed it is now refused with the resolution's own error. At base that row was written with the field unset and a warn, because the resolver was never asked. The claim declares 'Clause-②: no'; per the dispatch's H4 ('a write whose default now fails closed ... is a narrowing: declare it'), the PR body and the changeset carry 'Clause-②: no (narrowing)', a BREAKING banner and 'adr-0087: not-required (no-migration-prescription)'. check-changeset-no-major (fed the body as the PR payload) reports the level axis clean, and check-adr-0087-registration is green. Reachability: in the shipped composition SecurityPlugin's middleware resolves the same memoised permission sets before the write and already refuses on a resolution failure, so the new refusal is reachable only when buildEffectiveObjectPermissions throws, when the map is off-shape, or with a third-party resolver.",
"options": [
"A — keep as shipped: refuse, and declare no (narrowing). Business need: the refused path is a producer fault, so few deployments will meet it, but a stored row silently missing its declared default is the worse outcome. Long-term: one fail-closed rule for every consumer of one resolution; in the same write the option gate already refuses on the same throw. Anti-AI-error: an upgrading agent that greps BREAKING reads the exact condition. Startup focus: no extra machinery. Cost: one CHANGELOG paragraph for a rarely reachable path. The seat may want its claim line amended to match.",
"B — keep the refusal but declare 'no', reading #18783's accepted review (enforcing a declared fail-closed rule is not an accept-set narrowing). The seat edits the PR body line, and a patch round drops the banner and the marker (objectql could go patch). Cost: two readings of 'narrowing' coexist in the fleet.",
"C — do not refuse: follow the site's established failing-default rule (unset plus a warn) on a throw too, so nothing narrows. Cost: it contradicts the member docblock's 'callers fail CLOSED on the throw', and a row is stored without its declared value while the same write's option gate refuses on the same resolution."

domain:engine#1, session_01Bvd69VPa6puiNzzPUroDBx, written 2026-09-25T08:23Z.
Clause-②:no → no (narrowing). PR fix(objectql): a formula field and a CEL defaultValue answer current_user.can() from the security service (#20082) #20138 now refuses an insert row whose CEL defaultValue calls current_user.can() when the permission resolution throws or returns an off-shape map. On the base commit that row was written with the field unset. The dispatch's H4 names exactly this case as a narrowing to declare. The level moves to @objectstack/objectqlminor with BREAKING and ADR-0087 not-required (no-migration-prescription).
Still no, not yes: the one new export (readsPermissionPredicate in validation/rule-validator.ts) is not re-exported from either package entry. At 4fcfbed346, src/index.ts :437–442 and src/core.ts :92–97 name other rule-validator symbols only, so the published surface does not widen. The contract review re-measures this.
File surface: in addition to the claimed surface:
the export plus a docblock note on readsPermissionPredicate, so the value sites and the option gate share one can() detector;
engine.ts beyond the two method bodies: their call sites (find, findOne, insert, update, validate), hydrateWriteFormulas (now async), four private helpers, the PermissionResolution interface and the isExpressionDefault guard;
resolveOptionPermissions now receives the operation's shared resolution instead of asking the resolver itself. This is the one touch of PR feat(objectql,plugin-security,core): the server answers current_user.can() in an option's visibleWhen #20079's option wiring the claim excluded. It is required by H2 (at most one ask per write across both uses). Its ask and throw semantics are unchanged, and its 13-case suite passes as it was.
Seat ruling on the dev's open question: A. Keep the refusal and declare it no (narrowing). The member docblock's rule ("callers fail CLOSED on the throw") binds, and in the same write the option gate already refuses on the same resolution. B would leave two readings of "narrowing" in the fleet. C would store a row without its declared value while the same write refuses elsewhere.
domain:engine#1, session_01Bvd69VPa6puiNzzPUroDBx, written 2026-09-25T08:42Z. Reviewed on GitHub against references/review-checklist.md, not from the dev's os-dev-report.
Shape: the first line is Fixes #20082, and it is the only closing keyword. The body and changeset declare Clause-②: no (narrowing), as amended at 5829303317 (the seat's ruling A on the dev's open question). The changeset grades @objectstack/objectqlminor, with BREAKING and ADR-0087 not-required (no-migration-prescription).
Scope: 4 files, +834/−42. Not governed (check-governed-merges --pr 20138). The pieces:
engine.ts: both value sites, their call sites, four private helpers and one lazy resolution per operation;
one module-level export in rule-validator.ts, which no package entry re-exports;
the pin;
the changeset.
packages/core, packages/formula and the having region are untouched.
Contract review of record: PASS at 4fcfbed3 (5829521119).
Every cell of the dev's sites table was re-measured on a real ObjectQL + SqlDriver + SecurityPlugin. A formula field reads null → true / false, and a CEL default stores true / false. A required field defaulted by can() is admitted.
There is no unearned true on any fault path.
One resolution per operation, and the option gate's behaviour is IDENTICAL at base and head.
The pins discriminate (28 of 31 red at base), and the memo ablation reproduces (4 of 31).
CI at this head: 34 runs, 31 success and 3 skipped. All 7 required contexts are success, and Check Changeset is green. git merge-tree against current main (fe677aeeed) is clean: main's engine.ts hunks are the import block and the having region, disjoint from this PR's.
Out of scope, noted in the PR's Acceptance notes and not filed:
a formula fault other than can() still reads null with no log (the ledger says fail-soft-log);
a synchronous evaluateFormulaField / resolveRecordTitle holds no resolver;
each expand asks again.
These are read off the code, with no reachability measured at a public door, so they do not meet the filing gate.
Landing: ready plus auto-merge through the queue now.
The changeset 20082-formula-default-can.md is present at that commit and absent at its parent.
This card: closed completed via Fixes #20082. pm:dispatched is removed in the same act.
A formula field and a CEL defaultValue that call current_user.can() now answer from the security service's effective object-permission map. The map is resolved at most once per operation and shared with the write's can-gated options.
The declared narrowing (Clause-②: no (narrowing), minor, BREAKING) ships with it: an insert row whose can default needed a resolution that throws or is off-shape is refused with the resolver's error.

One lazy, memoised ask per engine operation is shared by a write's defaults, its option gates and its response formulas, and a find asks once, not per row. H1 confirmed at base with a real SecurityPlugin: the formula read null on find, findOne and the insert echo with no log; the default was left unset with a warn carrying 'carries no permission data'; a required default refused every insert; the resolver was asked 0 times. H3 rules: a read keeps the formula-fault rule (null) but now logs one warn per operation (reason no-permission-source or permission-resolution-failed); a default keeps its rule with no resolver (unset plus the existing warn) and fails closed on a throw or an off-shape map, refusing the row with the resolution's own error (per row under insertMany; validate() rejects the same way). H4: that refusal is a fault-path narrowing, declared Clause-②: no (narrowing) with a BREAKING banner and adr-0087 not-required (no-migration-prescription); the claim line reads 'no', see open_questions[0].
