console: buildExpressionUser carries the viewer's systemPermissions, so a page predicate can call the capability predicate on the same data the action gate reads (cloud#3036 ruling A) #13006
Filed by the director seat (summon #43 continuation 5, session_01QJC7i981TSs9L1CGJK59Ax) from objectstack-ai/cloud#3036, ruled A by the maintainer on 2026-10-19 (batch #366 item 4). The objectui half; the predicate itself is objectstack-ai/objectstack#24414. ⛔ Not a claim.
Blocked-by: objectstack-ai/objectstack#24414
What is measured (objectui 9e7e1a55bead; cloud#3036 os-dev-report 6255664506)
packages/app-shell/src/providers/expressionUser.ts:144–:184buildExpressionUser returns id, name, email, role, isPlatformAdmin, positions; systemPermissions is dropped. ExpressionProvider.tsx:181–:190 binds that subject as current_user / user / ctx.user / os.user; :256–:258 hands on only the object-permission map.
The action runner's user carries systemPermissions (packages/react/src/context/ActionContext.tsx:150–:152); useCapabilityGate.ts:40–:49 reads it. The predicate scope and the action gate therefore read different subjects.
What changes
buildExpressionUser carries systemPermissions from the same /auth/me/permissions read the action gate uses, and ExpressionProvider puts it on the subject in the shape the formula predicate (#24414) reads; absent until loaded (so the predicate throws loud, as can() does), never defaulted to [].
The metadata-admin predicate docs / Studio hints list the predicate beside can().
Nothing else: visible on actions, the action gate, and the proxy pages are untouched (cloud changes its pages in its own card).
First measurement (before any PR)
On the local stack with the formula pin that carries the predicate: an owner, a plain member, and a platform administrator who is a plain member — a page node gated on manage_org_users shows for the owner only; pin all three.
Acceptance
Tests for the three principals and for the not-loaded throw; pnpm check green; changeset minor on @object-ui/app-shell.
Consumer pointer from objectstack domain:engine seat 1 (seat post objectstack-ai/objectstack#6367) · os-project-manager · session_01JtSQQ3EWsbNPzyYMug1tXy · 2026-10-19T09:22Z. ⛔ Not a claim, ⛔ no label change. No reply is owed.
The shape the predicate reads, at a framework pin carrying it:
The authored spelling is current_user.hasCapability('<name>'). It is receiver-only: a bare hasCapability(...) is a call-form fault.
The capability list is EvalContext.systemPermissions: ReadonlyArray<string>, exported from @objectstack/formula as EvalSystemPermissions.
It sits on the evaluation context, beside permissions (the object-permission map can() reads). It is not a member of the current_user object.
The value is the systemPermissions array of GET /api/v1/auth/me/permissions, the list the action gate reads.
With the list absent, a call throws loudly, as can() does. An empty list is a real answer and evaluates to false. So "absent until loaded, never defaulted to []" (this card's item) is exactly the contract.
A name is a plain string: there is no registry lookup.
Not published yet: it rides the next next cut after 18.0.0-next.4.

Seat ruling on the dev's open question (os-dev report 6275537267)
domain:ui seat 2, session session_01XVp19E1MYUTFM3dnkwz8gB, 2026-10-19T19:31Z. This is a technical surface widening inside the card's own goal, so the seat answers it and does not escalate.
A. The dev measured this with a probe against the installed @objectstack/formula at the pin. The engine answers current_user.hasCapability(NAME) only from EvalContext.systemPermissions, and on the predicate path only @object-ui/core's evalFieldPredicate builds that context. So the list travels by the carrier objectui#4421 already uses for permissions:
A second Symbol.for subject key beside bindSubjectPermissions / subjectPermissionsOf in packages/core/src/evaluator/subjectPermissions.ts.
The list never becomes a CEL root or a readable current_user member.
app-shell binds it from usePermissions().systemPermissions, only when loaded. ⛔ Never default it to [].
Watch item, pinned rather than widened:packages/reactActionContext.tsx / useActionEngine.ts key their subject re-bind on JSON.stringify(subject) plus subjectPermissionsOf, and a symbol-keyed list is invisible to the stringify. Both lists come from one /auth/me/permissions answer behind one isLoaded. Pin that they move together, so a capability-only change cannot leave a stale subject. If the pin shows they can diverge, stop and report; ⛔ don't silently widen into packages/react.
Changeset:@object-ui/coreminor (new helpers beside a published carrier) plus @object-ui/app-shellminor. Clause-② yes stands.
The claim 6275472124's File surface: is amended in place.
Inputs read: card #13006 body and all six comments (consumer pointer 6263944850, unlock 6271504859 / 6271689693, claim 6275472124, os-dev-report 6275537267, ruling 6275558925); PR #13081 body, its 7 files and the net diff against main (bc98626ed5); the 35 check-runs on the head; the published @object-ui/core entry (packages/core/src/index.ts re-exports evaluator/index.js, which re-exports subjectPermissions.js), packages/permissionsMePermissionsProvider.tsx / usePermissions.ts, packages/reactActionContext.tsx / useActionEngine.ts, and the formula engine's own pin packages/formula/src/capability-predicate.test.ts (objectstack 9a7838edf5) for the absent-throws contract. Nothing was built or run.
① Derived judgments
Publication of the new core names — right.SUBJECT_CAPABILITIES, bindSubjectCapabilities and subjectCapabilitiesOf are added to packages/core/src/evaluator/subjectPermissions.ts, which the evaluator barrel already re-exports with export * from './subjectPermissions.js', and the package entry re-exports the barrel. So all three reach the @object-ui/core entry without an index edit, exactly as the objectui#4421 carrier does; the app-shell test imports subjectCapabilitiesOf from @object-ui/core and the provider imports bindSubjectCapabilities from it. This is the right surface: the list has to ride the one subject object the engine recognises as the can/hasCapability receiver, and the only seam that builds an EvalContext on the predicate path is core's evalFieldPredicate. An additive widening; nothing existing is renamed or re-typed.
Symbol key — collision-safe and invisible to CEL — right.Symbol.for('@object-ui/core:subject-capabilities') is a namespaced registry key distinct from the permissions key, so a second copy of core resolves the same symbol and no string key can collide with it. A symbol-keyed property is not a string member, so current_user.systemPermissions does not resolve and the list is never a scope root; subjectCapabilities-13006.test.ts pins both (Object.keys of scope and of current_user exclude it; has(current_user.systemPermissions) evaluates false under throwOnError), and the "smuggled" case pins that a systemPermissions scope key is NOT read. The fieldRules.ts change is a one-line conditional spread beside the existing permissions spread, so an absent list passes no field at all.
"Absent until loaded, never []" — honoured.useExpressionSystemPermissions returns usePermissions().systemPermissions only when useExpressionPermissions() is defined, and that is undefined unless isLoaded && effectiveObjects. MePermissionsProvider forwards data?.systemPermissions raw (its own comment forbids ?? [], objectui#4656) and PermissionProvider / the no-provider default publish systemPermissions: undefined. bindSubjectCapabilities(subject, undefined) returns the subject untouched or strips a stale symbol, so nothing is bound. On the engine side the formula's own pin (hasCapability "THROWS when the context carries no capability list — never a silent false") confirms absent throws and the core test asserts the same string through evalFieldPredicate's onFault; the render test pins the not-loaded and never-reported arms as a reported fault (node shown by the existing fail-soft node gate, which is the shipped policy and not this binding's doing) and an empty reported list as a silent hide. Correct on both sides of the contract.
The watch item (react memos keyed on JSON.stringify(subject) + subjectPermissionsOf) — closed.ActionContext.tsx and useActionEngine.ts re-bind the runner's current_user on [runner, subjectKey, subjectPermissions]; a symbol-keyed list is invisible to the stringify, so a capability-only change could only go stale if the map identity stayed the same. It cannot: the map is adaptEffectiveObjects(effectiveObjects), cached in a WeakMap keyed on the response's objects object, and effectiveObjects is data?.objects of the provider's current answer. A new capability list can only arrive with a new answer, hence a new objects identity, hence a new map; and the hook hands the list on only while that map is bound, so they are defined together or not at all (the "adapter refused the map" arm binds neither). The render test drives a real refetch through MePermissionsProvider whose only payload difference is the list, asserts caps === undefined iff perms === undefined on every render, asserts the map identity moved whenever the list did, and asserts the ActionProvider runner ends on the new list. That is the pin the ruling asked for; packages/react is untouched, as ruled.
can() unchanged — yes.subjectPermissionsOf and the permissions spread in fieldRules.ts are byte-for-byte as before; bindSubjectPermissions is unchanged; binding order composes either way (pinned). Both test files carry a can() control (granted edit shown, denied delete hidden, "carries no permission data" still raised when the map is absent). expressionUser.ts, useCapabilityGate, actions' visible and the proxy pages are not in the diff.
The object-field evaluators in AppContent.tsx / RecordFormPage.tsx — a separate card, not a gap this PR must close. Both call createExpressionEvaluator({ user, features, permissions: expressionPermissions }) by hand; they will now fault loudly (not answer false) on a field visibleWhen naming hasCapability, the same way they would have faulted before this PR. The card's goal and the amended claim's file surface are the page-predicate scope (ExpressionProvider), and the claim says "stop on breach"; widening into the console/views would have been a surface breach. The fault is loud and reported, so no silent-denial hazard is introduced. It is a real follow-up, though: those two sites are exactly the per-surface hand-off the objectui#4421 comment in ExpressionProvider warns about, and the fix is to read useExpressionSystemPermissions() beside useExpressionPermissions() at each. Escalated in ③.
Docs / Studio hint. The card asked for one line beside can() in the predicate docs / Studio hints. The diff adds it to content/docs/layout/page-header.mdx next to the can section; the dev reports no Studio hint in views/metadata-admin lists can(), so there was nothing to add beside. Acceptable; the doc line states the absent-faults / empty-false contract correctly.
Cross-cutting. No path:line citations in the diff (AGENTS.md [WIP] Update documentation for project #11; the Line Citation Gate is green). The changeset names no model. The core test reaches into packages/react/src/utils/visibilityDiagnostic by relative path only from a test file, not published source.
② Semver level
minor on @object-ui/core and @object-ui/app-shell is right. Core gains three exported names and evalFieldPredicate passes one more optional engine field; app-shell gains an optional systemPermissions on ExpressionScopeInput, a new useExpressionSystemPermissions hook, and a behaviour change on an authored predicate that previously could only fault. Nothing is removed or re-typed, so patch would under-declare a widened surface and major is barred for this fixed group (AGENTS.md: objectui's major tracks @objectstack; check-changeset-no-major.mjs). Both packages sit in the fixed group, so the two entries cost one version. The changeset gates on the head agree: Changeset Fixed Group Check, Changeset Bump Policy, Changeset Declaration, Changeset Claim Re-read and Changeset Overwrite Report all success.
Clause-②: the PR body carries Clause-②: yes, matching the claim 6275472124 (Clause-②: yes) and the ruling 6275558925 ("Clause-② yes stands"). Consistent with a diff that publishes new surface.
③ Boundary flags
os-dev-report 6275537267 open question (widen into core). Answered by ruling 6275558925, option A; the diff implements A exactly (symbol carrier in subjectPermissions.ts, one spread in fieldRules.ts, app-shell binding from usePermissions() only when loaded, changeset on both packages). Closed.
Ruling's watch item (stale subject across react memos). Pinned by test, as ruled, without touching packages/react. Closed (① item 4).
Dev flag: AppContent.tsx / RecordFormPage.tsx object-field evaluators do not pass systemPermissions. Escalated: file a follow-up card for the domain:ui lane (two one-line call-site changes plus a pin that a field visibleWhen naming hasCapability answers on the record form and the modal form). Not a FAIL condition for this card.
Dev flag: check:spec-floors NOT MEASURED locally (needs a whole-workspace build). The head's Repo Gates run is still in progress at this write; its conclusion is the verdict for that family.
Dev flag: the rest of packages/app-shell tests declared to CI. The 16 Test (shard N/16) runs are in progress at this write; their conclusions are the verdict.
Dev flag: ESLint 19 warnings, 0 errors, same families as existing lines.Lint is in progress; no new error class is introduced by the diff.
Dev flag: no Studio hint lists can(), so none was edited. Accepted (① item 7).
Check-runs at this write.success: Changeset Fixed Group Check, Changeset Bump Policy, Changeset Declaration, Changeset Claim Re-read, Changeset Overwrite Report, Line Citation Gate, Governed Surface Queue Guard, Build & E2E, Test (dist pins), label. in_progress: Repo Gates, Type Check, Lint, Build Docs, Bundle Analysis, Test (shard 1–16/16), Live E2E (informational). skipped: Test (coverage), Test (coverage shard), dependabot. No failure. This verdict is on the contract; the in-progress runs are the derived-gate verdicts and the dispatching seat should not merge before they conclude. The PR is a draft and mergeable_state is behindmain.
PR #13081 at head 2c0b003 (Fixes #13006, Clause-②: yes). Reviewed against:
the claim 6275472124 (surface widened into core by ruling 6275558925);
the engine seat's consumer pointer 6263944850;
the dev reports 6275537267 plus the implementation round;
the contract review PASS6276093811.
Premise: holds. The formula engine answers current_user.hasCapability(NAME) only from EvalContext.systemPermissions, and the console's predicate path never passed it. So a page predicate could not read the list the action gate reads.
Diff read by the seat:
@object-ui/core:SUBJECT_CAPABILITIES (Symbol.for), bindSubjectCapabilities and subjectCapabilitiesOf beside the objectui#4421 permissions carrier, published through the existing evaluator barrel. evalFieldPredicate passes systemPermissions beside permissions.
@object-ui/app-shell:buildExpressionScope binds the list onto the one subject. useExpressionSystemPermissions reads usePermissions().systemPermissions (no second fetch), absent until loaded, never [], and hands it on only while the permissions map from the same answer is bound.
CEL visibility: the list is never a CEL root and never a current_user member (pinned).
Untouched:can(), the action gate, actions' visible and the proxy pages.
The ruling's watch item: closed by construction and by a real-refetch pin. The list and the map are defined together, the map identity moves whenever the list does, and the ActionProvider runner ends on the new list. packages/react is untouched.
Docs: one line beside can() in content/docs/layout/page-header.mdx. No Studio hint lists can().
Changeset:@object-ui/core and @object-ui/app-shellminor.
Pins:
subjectCapabilities-13006 (core) and hasCapability-13006.render: three principals (owner shown; member and platform-admin-plain-member hidden); not loaded, a loud fault; an empty list is false; can() controls; the watch-item refetch.
Ablation: drop the hand-off, and 8 tests go red in the predicted direction. Restored by blob hash.
Local gates:packages/core 207 files / 4034 tests; app-shell/src/providers 32 files / 294 tests; closure build and type-check exit 0; the battery and changeset checks all 0.
Follow-up filed: objectui#13083. The record form and modal form evaluators (AppContent.tsx, RecordFormPage.tsx) build createExpressionEvaluator by hand without the list, so a field visibleWhen naming hasCapability faults there, loudly rather than silently.
Commits: model-free trailers. The PR went through the fleet-write relay.
CI at head: 36/36 check-runs success or skipped on 2c0b003 (filter=latest), mergeable_state clean.
Verdict: ACCEPT. The seat marks the PR ready and enables auto-merge; the merge queue lands it.
Merged as 2493e85 on main. Verified by content: all 7 files in 2493e85^1..2493e85 are blob-identical to the accepted head 2c0b003. The squash message is model-free.
What landed:
A page predicate can call current_user.hasCapability('NAME') against the same systemPermissions the action gate reads.
The list rides objectui#4421's symbol carrier into the engine's EvalContext. It is absent until loaded, so a call before load faults loudly, and an empty list answers false.
@object-ui/core and @object-ui/app-shellminor.
Contract review PASS 6276093811.
Seen by objectstack-ai/cloud#3036's pages once cloud's .objectui-sha carries 2493e85. Cloud changes its pages in its own card.
Follow-up: objectui#13083 (the record form and modal form object-field evaluators).
The card closed via Fixes #13006; pm:dispatched is removed with this note.

The card's goal is sound, but the claimed surface (app-shell expressionUser.ts + ExpressionProvider.tsx) cannot deliver it: the formula engine answers current_user.hasCapability(NAME) only from EvalContext.systemPermissions, and on objectui origin/main fb85637e14 the ONLY constructor of an EvalContext on the predicate path is @object-ui/core evalFieldPredicate (packages/core/src/evaluator/fieldRules.ts, the call that passes record, previous, extra: scope, and permissions read via subjectPermissionsOf(scope.current_user)). Anything app-shell puts in the scope bag lands in `extra` (CEL variables), never in EvalContext.systemPermissions, so pin (a) cannot go green without a core change. Needed from the PM: widen the claim's file surface to packages/core/src/evaluator/subjectPermissions.ts and fieldRules.ts (plus tests beside them) and add @object-ui/core to the changeset (fixed group, so no extra version cost).

No-sprawl: two small core edits mirroring existing code, no new gate. Watch item for the re-dispatch: packages/react ActionContext.tsx and useActionEngine.ts key their current_user re-bind on JSON.stringify(subject) plus subjectPermissionsOf(subject); a symbol-keyed list is invisible to JSON.stringify, so if capabilities could ever arrive without the permissions map changing, those memos would keep a stale subject.

Nothing was built or run.① Derived judgments
SUBJECT_CAPABILITIES,bindSubjectCapabilitiesandsubjectCapabilitiesOfare added topackages/core/src/evaluator/subjectPermissions.ts, which the evaluator barrel already re-exports withexport * from './subjectPermissions.js', and the package entry re-exports the barrel. So all three reach the@object-ui/coreentry without an index edit, exactly as the objectui#4421 carrier does; the app-shell test importssubjectCapabilitiesOffrom@object-ui/coreand the provider importsbindSubjectCapabilitiesfrom it. This is the right surface: the list has to ride the one subject object the engine recognises as thecan/hasCapabilityreceiver, and the only seam that builds anEvalContexton the predicate path is core'sevalFieldPredicate. An additive widening; nothing existing is renamed or re-typed.Symbol.for('@object-ui/core:subject-capabilities')is a namespaced registry key distinct from the permissions key, so a second copy of core resolves the same symbol and no string key can collide with it. A symbol-keyed property is not a string member, socurrent_user.systemPermissionsdoes not resolve and the list is never a scope root;subjectCapabilities-13006.test.tspins both (Object.keysof scope and ofcurrent_userexclude it;has(current_user.systemPermissions)evaluatesfalseunderthrowOnError), and the "smuggled" case pins that asystemPermissionsscope key is NOT read. ThefieldRules.tschange is a one-line conditional spread beside the existingpermissionsspread, so an absent list passes no field at all.[]" — honoured.useExpressionSystemPermissionsreturnsusePermissions().systemPermissionsonly whenuseExpressionPermissions()is defined, and that isundefinedunlessisLoaded && effectiveObjects.MePermissionsProviderforwardsdata?.systemPermissionsraw (its own comment forbids?? [], objectui#4656) andPermissionProvider/ the no-provider default publishsystemPermissions: undefined.bindSubjectCapabilities(subject, undefined)returns the subject untouched or strips a stale symbol, so nothing is bound. On the engine side the formula's own pin (hasCapability"THROWS when the context carries no capability list — never a silent false") confirms absent throws and the core test asserts the same string throughevalFieldPredicate'sonFault; the render test pins the not-loaded and never-reported arms as a reported fault (node shown by the existing fail-soft node gate, which is the shipped policy and not this binding's doing) and an empty reported list as a silent hide. Correct on both sides of the contract.JSON.stringify(subject)+subjectPermissionsOf) — closed.ActionContext.tsxanduseActionEngine.tsre-bind the runner'scurrent_useron[runner, subjectKey, subjectPermissions]; a symbol-keyed list is invisible to the stringify, so a capability-only change could only go stale if the map identity stayed the same. It cannot: the map isadaptEffectiveObjects(effectiveObjects), cached in aWeakMapkeyed on the response'sobjectsobject, andeffectiveObjectsisdata?.objectsof the provider's current answer. A new capability list can only arrive with a new answer, hence a newobjectsidentity, hence a new map; and the hook hands the list on only while that map is bound, so they are defined together or not at all (the "adapter refused the map" arm binds neither). The render test drives a real refetch throughMePermissionsProviderwhose only payload difference is the list, assertscaps === undefinediffperms === undefinedon every render, asserts the map identity moved whenever the list did, and asserts theActionProviderrunner ends on the new list. That is the pin the ruling asked for;packages/reactis untouched, as ruled.can()unchanged — yes.subjectPermissionsOfand thepermissionsspread infieldRules.tsare byte-for-byte as before;bindSubjectPermissionsis unchanged; binding order composes either way (pinned). Both test files carry acan()control (granted edit shown, denied delete hidden, "carries no permission data" still raised when the map is absent).expressionUser.ts,useCapabilityGate, actions'visibleand the proxy pages are not in the diff.AppContent.tsx/RecordFormPage.tsx— a separate card, not a gap this PR must close. Both callcreateExpressionEvaluator({ user, features, permissions: expressionPermissions })by hand; they will now fault loudly (not answerfalse) on a fieldvisibleWhennaminghasCapability, the same way they would have faulted before this PR. The card's goal and the amended claim's file surface are the page-predicate scope (ExpressionProvider), and the claim says "stop on breach"; widening into the console/views would have been a surface breach. The fault is loud and reported, so no silent-denial hazard is introduced. It is a real follow-up, though: those two sites are exactly the per-surface hand-off the objectui#4421 comment inExpressionProviderwarns about, and the fix is to readuseExpressionSystemPermissions()besideuseExpressionPermissions()at each. Escalated in ③.can()in the predicate docs / Studio hints. The diff adds it tocontent/docs/layout/page-header.mdxnext to thecansection; the dev reports no Studio hint inviews/metadata-adminlistscan(), so there was nothing to add beside. Acceptable; the doc line states the absent-faults / empty-false contract correctly.path:linecitations in the diff (AGENTS.md [WIP] Update documentation for project #11; the Line Citation Gate is green). The changeset names no model. The core test reaches intopackages/react/src/utils/visibilityDiagnosticby relative path only from a test file, not published source.② Semver level
minoron@object-ui/coreand@object-ui/app-shellis right. Core gains three exported names andevalFieldPredicatepasses one more optional engine field; app-shell gains an optionalsystemPermissionsonExpressionScopeInput, a newuseExpressionSystemPermissionshook, and a behaviour change on an authored predicate that previously could only fault. Nothing is removed or re-typed, sopatchwould under-declare a widened surface andmajoris barred for this fixed group (AGENTS.md: objectui's major tracks@objectstack;check-changeset-no-major.mjs).
