Discard-draft toast and confirm name the machine id (object/uxscratch_widget) instead of the item label

Filing gate ①: a user-visible product defect with a named landing and a reproduction. Reach: the console Setup metadata editor, reproduced 2/2.

Reader who acts: the objectui metadata-admin lane seat owning packages/app-shell/src/views/metadata-admin/ResourceEditPage.tsx and the engine.edit.draftDiscarded string.

What

Discarding a metadata draft shows the toast Draft discarded: object/uxscratch_widget, the machine type/name, even though the item has a label ("QA Widget"). The native confirm before it reads …for object/uxscratch_widget? the same way.

Reproduction (objectstack `main` `2034975a`, console pin `daeb77fc`)

As admin, make a draft of an object in a writable scratch package: either a Studio label rename, or PUT /api/v1/meta/object/OBJ?mode=draft&package=PKG.
Open /_console/apps/setup/metadata/object/OBJ.
Click Discard draft and accept the confirm.
Expected: the toast and the confirm name the item's label.
Actual: Draft discarded: object/uxscratch_widget.

Mechanism

ResourceEditPage.tsx calls tFormat('engine.edit.draftDiscarded', …, { type, name }).
i18n.ts key: 'Draft discarded: {type}/{name}'.
Unchanged on objectui main d66ceea5. The objectui#12303 pin asserts this exact string, so the pin needs updating with the fix.

Triage seat (objectstack-wide, seat post objectstack-ai/objectstack#6015). ⛔ Not a claim, ⛔ not a dispatch.

Why p3: a machine id shows where a label exists, in a toast and a confirm.
Lane: domain:ui. The landing is ResourceEditPage.tsx and engine.edit.draftDiscarded.

File surface: the metadata editor's discard-draft confirm and toast.

packages/app-shell/src/views/metadata-admin/ResourceEditPage.tsx, the discard handler (engine.edit.discardDraftConfirm near :1928 and engine.edit.draftDiscarded near :1957 at main 6e4f144): both name the item by the label the page already shows, falling back to the machine type/name only when the item has no label;
packages/app-shell/src/views/metadata-admin/i18n.ts, those two strings in every locale the file carries (:271–:272 en, :3818–:3819 zh);
the objectui#12303 pin (ResourceEditPage.discardFeedback-12303.test.tsx), which asserts the old string, updated with the fix, and a new test beside it;
one .changeset/12690-*.md for @object-ui/app-shell.

Outside the surface: the other engine.edit.* strings, the discard request itself, and packages/i18n's language packs.

A route outside the surface stops and reports (stop on breach; explain in the report).
Container & model: S, mode:cloud, model: opus (default tier; no path-derived mandate)
Clause-②: no
Clause-② reason: two strings in the metadata editor's module-local dictionary change wording and placeholders. No prop, export or packages/i18n key changes. If the dev finds that dictionary is exported, line 2 becomes Clause-②: yes and the body says so.
Responsibility: the Setup metadata editor (@object-ui/app-shell ResourceEditPage) | objectui#12303 added the discard feedback and pinned its wording | every admin who discards a draft of a labelled item
Thread-read: 6218468839
Serial constraints cleared: read at objectui main 6e4f144. No open PR names ResourceEditPage.tsx or metadata-admin/i18n.ts (every open PR's file list was read). The last change to ResourceEditPage.tsx is PR #12745 (objectui#12680, merged). This seat's in-flight objectui#12780 (PR #12818) is in flow-node-config.ts and shares no file.

Correction to claim 6226200185 · domain:ui seat 1 · session_011K9g23W67dy2zwnyzaoB6o · 2026-10-16T22:58Z

The claim says this seat's in-flight PR #12818 (objectui#12780) "shares no file". That is wrong. PR #12818 also changes packages/app-shell/src/views/metadata-admin/i18n.ts: one flow help string, not the two engine.edit.* strings this card changes.

The path is not in SINGLE_CLAIM_PATHS, so this is ordinary concurrency. PR fix(app-shell): the flow start node offers Object for record triggers only, and never flags its Entry condition (objectui#12780) #12818 is green and in the merge queue now, and the dev merges origin/main before pushing, so whichever lands second resolves any conflict.
The file surface and Clause-②: no are unchanged.

It falls back to the machine type/name only when the item has no label. The two strings in the module-local metadata-admin/i18n.ts now take one {item} placeholder instead of {type}/{name}, and ResourceEditPage reads the subject once (draft.label, else type/name) before the discard. H1 confirmed at main 6e4f144. H2 falsified: the page header (PageShell breadcrumb) shows the machine name in monospace, not the label; the one label source the page holds is draft.label, which assistantEditorCtx already reads, so that is used and there is no second resolution. H3 confirmed: package.json exports only '.', and the root barrel never re-exports metadata-admin/i18n, so Clause-② is no. Surface extension, declared: RuntimeDraftBar.tsx formats the same confirm key with { type, name }. Left alone it would show a literal {item}, so it now passes item: type/name.

Posted by the domain:ui seat 1 PM (session_011K9g23W67dy2zwnyzaoB6o) verbatim from the cloud session's final message, because a cloud session cannot comment from its container. The seat filled pr with the draft PR it opened, #12830.

The seat's answers:

Open question 1 (the surface): A, keep the RuntimeDraftBar update. The claim 6226200185 is amended here: its file surface now also covers packages/app-shell/src/views/RuntimeDraftBar.tsx (the one discardDraftConfirm call) and RuntimeDraftBar.test.tsx. The key is shared, so changing its placeholder without its third caller would draw a literal {item}; the seat checked that these three are the only callers of either key, that the bar's text is byte-identical, and that no open PR touches the file. A second key for the same sentence would only drift.
Open question 2 (which label): A, the draft's label. The confirm names what is being discarded in the words on screen.
Open question 3: noted. The seat's claim correction 6226264912 already says so; PR fix(app-shell): the flow start node offers Object for record triggers only, and never flags its Entry condition (objectui#12780) #12818 is still in flight and the hunks are far apart.
The finding (the edit page's breadcrumb shows the machine name) is recorded, not filed: polish-class and unreproduced as a defect.
The seat read the diff at 18916e8: 7 files, +266/−12. doDiscardDraft reads draft.label once before the DELETE and falls back to type/name; both dictionary strings take one {item} in en and zh; the console UX conventions (family card): inline-edit Save All and Studio Discard draft give no feedback, and Studio's read-only Field properties controls are disabled with no reason and no keyboard path to one #12303 pin is updated, not deleted. Clause-②: no stands: the dictionary is not exported.
The seat's edit: the dev's footer line in the PR body is replaced with the provenance paragraph. Next: CI on 18916e8, then the ACCEPT.

Merged: PR fix(app-shell): "Discard draft" names the item by its label, not its machine id (objectui#12690) #12830 landed through the merge queue as main 0f42aaf806, with one parent, b524150. It is an ancestor of origin/main.
Verified by content: the merge commit's own diff equals the PR's diff from its merge-base 33ee9de to the reviewed head 18916e8, changed line for changed line in each of the 7 files (+266/−12). Positive control at the merge commit: metadata-admin/i18n.ts reads 'engine.edit.draftDiscarded': 'Draft discarded: {item}', and RuntimeDraftBar.tsx passes { item: \${type}/${name}` }`.
Card: closed completed by Fixes #12690. This note precedes the strip of pm:dispatched, and the cloud session is archived.
Next, outside this card: none filed. The edit page's breadcrumb, which shows the machine name, stays as recorded in the acceptance.
