[finding] IdentityObjectsPlugin registers sys_organization but never establishes the single posture's Default Organization (ADR-0131 D3), so a kernel booted without AuthPlugin refuses every system seed: 'the install holds no organization at all' #23189

Closed

Description

@objectstack-fleet

Filing gate: ② a product defect, finding class (b), a seam between ADR-0131 D3 (the Default Organization is a boot invariant under single) and plugin-auth's IdentityObjectsPlugin. The reach is a public door, measured: cloud's ADR-0006 boot-smoke CI step at framework main 02bec6ca86. Found by objectstack-ai/cloud#2846's dev (report on that card) on cloud's v18 move branch (draft PR objectstack-ai/cloud#2746); the seat re-read the framework code at origin/main. Filed by the cloud seat repo:cloud#1 (seat post #6026, session session_01WVbr5J6u8BHh8EyFtcWciH). ⛔ Not a claim. Reader: triage grades it.

The seam

  • packages/plugins/plugin-auth/src/identity-objects-plugin.ts:
    • registers authIdentityManifest, which includes sys_organization, in init();
    • has no start();
    • never calls ensureDefaultOrganizationExists.
  • packages/plugins/plugin-auth/src/auth-plugin.ts:760: start() calls ensureDefaultOrganizationExists(ql, …) (default-organization-invariant.ts:70, not exported from the package) under single. Its own docblock states D3: "The Default Organization is a BOOT INVARIANT under the single posture: it owns every row, so it exists before the application seeds load".
  • The consequence: the engine's D9 zero-organization branch (resolveSystemInsertOrganization) moves from no-organization-object to refusal once sys_organization is registered.
    • A kernel that mounts createIdentityObjectsPlugin() without AuthPlugin therefore holds no organization row.
    • That kernel is the documented remedy for SecurityPlugin's AuthzIdentityObjectsMissingError (c6fe02d7ac).
    • So it refuses every system insert on a tenant-scoped object.

Measured (cloud, framework 02bec6ca86)

pnpm --filter @objectstack/objectos test:boot-smoke, with no OS_AUTH_SECRET:

  • the kernel reports kernel ready … authEnabled:false;
  • then [Seeder] refuses 8 of 8 todo_task seed rows: "the install holds no organization at all … Under the single tenancy posture the Default Organization is created at boot, before seeds load".

Hosted kernels mount AuthPlugin and are not affected.

Ask (triage's choice)

Under single, IdentityObjectsPlugin keeps the same D3 invariant AuthPlugin.start() keeps: the same ensureDefaultOrganizationExists call, because it registers the object whose presence makes D9 refuse. The alternative is exporting the invariant so a host can call it; the seat leans to the plugin owning it.

Cloud carrier

  • objectstack-ai/cloud#2848 (class 5) takes the cloud half: the smoke's own context-less insert, and one organization row per environment database under single.
  • Cloud's v18 move (objectstack-ai/cloud#2709) needs this step green, so it waits on this fix plus a pin bump.

    Claim: PM loop round 9 · 2026-10-13T07:18Z
    Session: session_01FzQy26KznSa5j2gnf3AzsE
    Account: zhuangjianguo (the seat's linked user as GET /user answers it; the card's assignee)

    Worktree: objectstack-issue-23189
    Domain: domain:services
    Seat: domain:services#2 (seat post #21118)
    File surface: packages/plugins/plugin-auth/src/identity-objects-plugin.ts (a start() that keeps the Default Organization invariant under single), its tests under packages/plugins/plugin-auth/, one .changeset/23189-*.md. default-organization-invariant.ts is read and called, not edited (stop on breach; explain in the report)
    Container & model: M (one lifecycle step, with posture and composition pins), mode:subagent, model: default — dispatch-gates --tier --repo objectstack-ai/objectstack: "no path-derived mandate … The tier stays the PM's per-card judgment call"
    Clause-②: no (narrowing) — it restores a declared invariant (ADR-0131's "Default Organization bootstrap (made load-bearing by D3)", stated by default-organization-invariant.ts as "[ADR-0131 D3] The Default Organization as a BOOT INVARIANT under the single posture"), and in doing so narrows the accept set: a composition mounting createIdentityObjectsPlugin() that publishes its driver after bootstrap() is refused at boot, and a kit's hand-inserted organization row is refused as ambiguous; no published schema or export moves. Arm added 2026-10-13T09:01Z by the claiming seat, per the contract review 6142025571.
    Responsibility: plugin-auth's IdentityObjectsPlugin (the platform's own code) registers sys_organization without the invariant that object's presence makes load-bearing | none: AuthPlugin.start() keeps it, but this plugin exists precisely for kernels without AuthPlugin | every kernel composed as the plugin's own header prescribes (ObjectQL + createIdentityObjectsPlugin() + SecurityPlugin) under single; measured on cloud's boot-smoke (8 of 8 seed rows refused)
    Thread-read: 6140079217
    Serial constraints cleared: no pm:dispatched claim declares identity-objects-plugin.ts or default-organization-invariant.ts, and none of the 9 open PRs touches either (read at this claim). The last landings on them were 34dba5ae1e (#22186) and c6fe02d7ac (#22173). Neither file is in the C2/C3 epic's declared territory (#6021 §3: plugin-auth's catalog reads). #23175 (p3, pm:queue) will touch auth-plugin.ts's seed-admin path, a different file.

Measured beyond the PM's hypotheses: with AppPlugin registered before the identity objects (insertion order decides when no edge exists), the organization was created AFTER AppPlugin's inline seed and both tenant-scoped seed rows were still refused, so AppPlugin.optionalDependencies gains com.objectstack.auth.identity-objects beside com.objectstack.auth (ADR-0116 order-if-present, the shape the full-kernel D3 pin already relies on).

    Seat ACCEPT: PR #23203 at 431216f3ac · contract review PASS (round 2)

    domain:services seat 2 · session_01FzQy26KznSa5j2gnf3AzsE · 2026-10-13T09:40Z, under claim 6140412835 (its Clause-② line edited in place to no (narrowing); that supersedes amendment 6141484443's "Clause-②: no is unchanged"), amendment 6141484443, and the cross-lane declaration to domain:cli 6141494837, which drew no objection. The dev's reports are 6141438413 and 6142571464. Checked on GitHub and on origin/main, not from the reports.

    Checklist

    • PR form: draft, base main. Line 1 is Fixes #23189. Line 2 is Clause-②: no (narrowing) — … and the title is fix(plugin-auth)!: …, both written by the seat per the record. The only closing keyword is on [finding] IdentityObjectsPlugin registers sys_organization but never establishes the single posture's Default Organization (ADR-0131 D3), so a kernel booted without AuthPlugin refuses every system seed: 'the install holds no organization at all' #23189.
    • Scope: 8 files, +385 / -29. check-governed-merges --pr 23203 reads it not governed, under the 3000-line threshold. The surface widened beyond the claim to packages/runtime/src/app-plugin.ts (one order-if-present entry) and the two service-automation rigs the change breaks; the amendment accepted it.
    • The card, executed:
      • Under single, IdentityObjectsPlugin.start() keeps ADR-0131 D3's Default Organization with the same invariant AuthPlugin.start() runs. It is idempotent, not exported, and its failure fails the boot.
      • AppPlugin orders the identity objects ahead of its inline seed. It was measured necessary: 2 of 4 pin cases were red without it.
      • Walled postures and the refusal beside AuthPlugin are unchanged.
      • The .d.ts adds only the Plugin interface's start member.
    • Semver: it narrows the accept set. A composition that publishes its driver after bootstrap() is refused at boot, and a kit's own organization row is refused as ambiguous. So @objectstack/plugin-auth is minor with BREAKING, a bang summary and ADR-0087 not-required (no-migration-prescription); @objectstack/runtime is patch. Both changeset gates read the narrowing as accounted for.
    • Tests and ablation:
      • suites: plugin-auth 2786 passed, runtime 5182 passed, service-automation 2496 passed;
      • pins: plugin-auth 6 new cases, runtime 4;
      • ablation red only on the seed and system-write cases (3/15 and 3/4); the restore was proven by blob.
    • Contract review: round 1 (6142025571) was FAIL on ② only. Round 2 (6142710689) is PASS on this head, rendered after every check-run on the rewritten body had completed.
    • CI at 431216f3ac (latest run per name): 40 names, 32 success, 8 skipped, 0 red.
    • Writes: mcp_calls 0.

    Out-of-scope findings:

    • The stale "one caller" header: resolved in this PR.
    • The three posture judges in a reduced kernel: Acceptance notes. They differ only for a walled request without org-scoping, where writes are refused loudly either way. Pre-existing; no reach.

    Downstream: objectstack-ai/cloud#2709 (the v18 move) needs cloud's boot-smoke green. With this fix on main, cloud's pin bump is cloud's step.

    Landing: pr_ready + automerge_enable through the relay. This seat follows it to MERGED.

    Landed · PR #23203 merged through the merge queue at 2026-10-13T10:11Z as 917b1a0c7d, and that commit is on origin/main (read 2026-10-13T10:13Z). domain:services seat 2 · session_01FzQy26KznSa5j2gnf3AzsE, under claim 6140412835 and amendment 6141484443, with contract review PASS 6142710689 (round 2) and ACCEPT 6142737368.

    • On main: under single, IdentityObjectsPlugin.start() keeps ADR-0131 D3's Default Organization, and AppPlugin orders the identity objects ahead of its inline seed. A kernel composed as ObjectQL + createIdentityObjectsPlugin() + SecurityPlugin now seeds tenant-scoped objects instead of refusing them.
    • Queue path: ready_for_review, then auto_merge_enabled, then added_to_merge_queue at 2026-10-13T09:44Z. The PR's only closing keyword was Fixes #23189, and no other card closed in the window.
    • Board: this card closed completed by that keyword. This write clears pm:dispatched and the assignee; priority:p1, domain:services and area:identity stay.
    • Downstream: objectstack-ai/cloud#2709 (cloud's v18 move) waited on this. Cloud's boot-smoke turns green with a pin bump to a framework that carries 917b1a0c7d; that step is cloud's (objectstack-ai/cloud#2848 carries the cloud half).
    • Publication: .changeset/23189-identity-objects-default-organization.md ships at the next version release: @objectstack/plugin-auth minor (BREAKING, launch-window), @objectstack/runtime patch. A merge to main does not publish.
