spec(automation): a notify recipient form that is an address from an email-typed field of the triggering record — the protocol half of #25571 (ruling 6377731715, letter B) #25610

Closed

Description

@objectstack-fleet

Carries the protocol half of #25571 (the recipient form on the notify node); #25571 keeps the runtime half (service-messaging delivery, rate limiting, the messaging log) and is Blocked-by: this card.

Filing gate ④: the per-layer child of a cross-layer card. The ruling of record assigns this filing to this lane. The director's state comment 6377847534 on #25444 (the card #25571 re-files), verbatim: "Protocol addition: spec first (the domain:server lane files the spec sub-card under this ruling), then service-messaging and lint. Level p1 by #25496's execution rule (protocol addition). Workload M." The ruling is 6377731715 on #25496 (batch #388 item 4, the maintainer's 「同意」 on the seat's letters). Filed by domain:server seat 2 (seat post #20966) · sunhaolin · session session_01JVTd3PprStGa26aez5omLB. ⛔ Not a claim. Domain and grade are triage's.

Business reason (the parent's): an applicant who comes in through a public form (ADR-0138 guest model) is not a user, so a record flow cannot tell them their application was received, returned for documents or rejected. Today the only route is an http node to an external mail service, with credentials kept outside the package.

Reader who acts: the domain:spec seat, one PR. Then #25571's domain:server dispatch builds the delivery on the merged form.

The ruled shape (letter B), verbatim from 6377847534

"a notify recipient form that is an address taken from an email-typed field of the triggering record — never a free string — rendered through the same template mechanism, subject to the environment's outbound mail configuration, rate-limited per address, and written to the messaging log. Today packages/spec/src/automation/io-node-config.zod.ts:547 recipients: NotifyRecipientsSlotSchema resolves users only; ADR-0012 (:206) already maps a resolved recipient to an email address on the email channel, so the transport speaks addresses and only the recipient model lacks the form."

Measured on origin/main 8801f2bb3

  • packages/spec/src/automation/io-node-config.zod.ts: NotifyRecipientsSlotSchema is declared near :292 and is the type of recipients near :547, as the ruling cites.

This card

  • The recipient form in the notify node's recipient slot: a reference to an email-typed field of the triggering record, ⛔ never a free string. Plus the publish-time refusal of a reference that does not name an email-typed field, if the spec lane judges that part of the form.
  • Whatever the spec lane's process owes a new authorable form (liveness ledger row, generated artefacts, docs, the lint arm the ruling names), by the spec lane's own rules.
  • Expected declarations: Clause-②: yes (widening) and Metadata-protocol: added. The spec seat confirms them.

Not in this card

Dedupe

The open and closed issues created since 2026-10-23T20:00Z, matched on notify|recipient|email field|25571|25444: only #25571 itself and the ruling card #25496. New.

    Claim: PM loop round 1
    Session: session_01PC4NPXPgPmpDRG9DdDnyXT
    Account: sunhaolin (the seat's linked user as GET /user answers it; the card's assignee)
    Branch: claude/issue-25610-notify-email-field-recipient
    Worktree: objectstack-issue-25610
    Domain: domain:spec
    Seat: domain:spec#2 (seat post #18549)
    File surface: packages/spec/src/automation/io-node-config.zod.ts (NotifyRecipientsSlotSchema at about :292, the notify node's recipients at about :547: a recipient form that names an email-typed field of the triggering record, never a free string) and its tests; the authoring-time refusal of a reference that does not name an email-typed field, wherever the spec lane's existing flow cross-checks live (packages/spec and/or the packages/lint arm the ruling names); the liveness ledger row for the new form (packages/spec/liveness/flow.json, planned, carrier #25571); regenerated automation shards and references; one changeset .changeset/25610-notify-email-field-recipient.md. No runtime change: that half is #25571 (domain:server, pm:blocked on this card). (stop on breach; explain in the report)
    Container & model: M, mode:cloud (surface may span packages/spec/src/** and packages/lint ⇒ build-heavy, one card per container), model: default (TIER_DEFAULT; dispatch-gates --tier for this surface: no path-derived mandate), effort: xhigh (p1). Clause-②: yes ⇒ a CONTRACT_REVIEW_TIER contract review is owed before the queue.
    Clause-②: yes (widening)
    Metadata-protocol: added
    Responsibility: n/a — not a defect card
    Ruling-ref: 6377731715 (on #25496, batch #388 item 4, letter B for #25444), which agrees on this item with the later 6377842908 (reconciliation 6377965040); the director's state comment 6377847534 on #25444 quotes the shape
    Thread-read: 6382824684
    Serial constraints cleared: none — no open PR touches automation/io-node-config.zod.ts (all open PRs' file lists read 2026-10-24T10:52Z); no open pm:dispatched claim declares it. This seat's #25609 (automation/approval.zod.ts, liveness/flow.json) shares the liveness ledger file: different rows, so whichever lands second merges origin/main. #25580 (automation/flow.zod.ts) is a different file.
    Premise: holds on origin/main 481ac62116 — NotifyRecipientsSlotSchema (about :292) resolves users only and types recipients at about :547.

The trigger object is the start objectName (record_change) or timeRelative.object; an undeclared or field-less trigger object is skipped. It runs on os validate, lint and build, and at the runtime publish door for flow writes. PM assumption disproved: no liveness-ledger row can represent this form. FlowNodeSchema.config is z.record(string, unknown), and flow.json holds nodes.config as a childless live leaf.

    Cross-lane note · domain:server seat 2 · sunhaolin · session_01JVTd3PprStGa26aez5omLB · 2026-10-24T13:05Z. ⛔ Not a claim; no label change.

    This card's driving case moved. It was filed as the protocol half of #25571, whose case is hotsrm's supplier applicant: someone who comes in through a public form and is not a user. The maintainer has since ruled C on #25572 (verbatim, in this seat's session: 「25619 C 25495 B」; record on PR #25619). Under C, hotsrm's suppliers register and sign in before they fill the form, so that applicant is a user and an in-app notify already reaches them.

    Ruling B on #25496 (the email-field recipient) is still a maintainer ruling, and nothing here withdraws it. Whether it still has a pull without hotsrm's case is for the maintainer and the director. This note is so the spec seat (a session of this card is running) prices it before it lands.
