rest/meta: state the caller's organization on the /meta/diagnostics ?type= sweep

[os-trump]

Part of #13753

⚠️ Deliberately Part of, not Fixes. The card names two doors. One of them
(GET /meta/diagnostics, on its ?type= arm) is repaired here. The other
(GET /meta/:type/:name/references) turned out on measurement not to be repairable from
the call site at all, and the untyped diagnostics sweep has the same shape — so merging
this must not close the card. The measurement and a proposal are below and in the report
comment.

What the two doors do with the caller's organization

getMetaDiagnostics and findReferencesToMeta both declare organizationId and both
forward it into getMetaItems. Neither REST door supplied one, so both resolved at
environment scope only. Confirmed by symbol on the merged tree, three merges newer than
the tree the card was filed against.

The measurement the card asked for, and the one thing it changes. getMetaItems
applies no registry gate of its own — whatever organization it is handed is used for
whatever type it is handed. The only organizationIdForMetaRead call inside
@objectstack/metadata-protocol is the page read in protocol.ts; nothing on this path.
So the scope of a sweep is decided per type, by the caller, and a request that carries
one organizationId can only be correct when it sweeps one type.

⚠️ This paragraph was true of the tree this branch was written against and is superseded
on the merged tree — see "What the merge brought in" below. It is left standing as the
record of the measurement, not silently rewritten.

⚠️ And the direction of the harm is not what the card and the dispatch assumed. Both said
naming the tenant unconditionally would hide an allowOrgOverride: false type's rows.
That is true of /history (SysMetadataRepository.history() filters organization_id by
strict equality) and it is not true here: getMetaItems UNIONs queryByOrg(null) with
queryByOrg(orgId) under org-wins precedence, so naming an organization can only add
rows. What an unconditional tenant does on this path is resurrect — it reads back the
pre-#6190 phantom org-scoped rows on types with no per-org read channel, which boot
hydration walks past. That is the hazard organizationIdForMetaRead's own docblock argues,
and it is why the registry-gated predicate is still the right one here even though the
strict-equality argument does not apply.

Per door — before, after

Door	Before	After	Env rows
GET /meta/diagnostics?type=view (org session, one org-authored view)	200, stats.view.count = 0, scannedItems = 0 — a clean tile over a partition never read	200, stats.view.count = 1, scannedItems = 1	unchanged — an org session still sees env-wide items (pinned)
GET /meta/diagnostics?type=object (org session, one env-wide object + a planted phantom org row)	200, count 1	200, count 1 — unchanged; the phantom is not resurrected	unchanged
GET /meta/diagnostics (no ?type=, org session)	200, stats.view.count = 0	200, stats.view.count = 0 — unchanged by decision, pinned as a recorded gap	unchanged
GET /meta/:type/:name/references (org session)	200, org-scoped referrers invisible	unchanged — see below	unchanged

No status code moves, no response field is added or removed, and an anonymous or
organization-less caller reads byte-identically to before.

Why /references is reported instead of repaired

The card's fix direction rests on "/references takes one type". Measured, it does not:
req.params.type is the target, and findReferencesToMeta spends the organization on
the sources. It resolves REFERENCE_SITES.byTarget.get(target), groups the sites by
fromType, and reads each one with
getMetaItems({ type: matcher.fromType, ...(organizationId ? { organizationId } : {}) }).

So one request-level organization is applied to a set of types the target's own registry
flag says nothing about, and gating on the target answers a question about the wrong type
in both directions:

• target allowOrgOverride: true (view, dashboard, report, translation,
  email_template) ⇒ the organization is named for every source type, object /
  flow / app included — the unconditional tenant, unioning phantom rows into a
  destructive-action clearance;
• target allowOrgOverride: false (object, flow, app, page, …) ⇒ nothing is named,
  so an org-scoped view referencing the object being deleted stays invisible and the
  "Used by" panel still renders "Nothing in the metadata graph points at this item. Safe
  to delete." — the card's own false clearance, on the most common delete there is.

Half-repairing it would advertise an org-awareness the door cannot deliver, on the exact
surface Prime Directive #10 is about. The reasoning is recorded at the call site so the
next reader does not add the one-liner that looks obviously missing.

Proposal (for the seat that owns metadata-protocol; not applied here — the card fences
protocol.ts off): apply organizationIdForMetaRead(request.type, request.organizationId)
inside getMetaItems. It is idempotent for the six call sites in rest-server.ts that
already gate, it makes every multi-type sweep correct with one request-level organization
(both doors here, /references included), and it puts read scope and write scope on one
predicate so they cannot drift for any caller. The narrower alternative — the predicate
per matcher.fromType inside findReferencesToMeta and per t inside
getMetaDiagnostics — fixes these two doors and leaves the next sweep to rediscover it.

⚠️ This proposal has since landed on main as #14767 — see "What the merge brought
in" below.

The door enumeration, re-run on this branch

Every GET door under the meta path in packages/rest/src/rest-server.ts, against
/audit's parameter passing. Derived mechanically from the register calls, not by eye.

Door	Reads a metadata document	Organization stated	Expression
/meta, /meta/types	no — protocol.getMetaTypes()	n/a	—
/meta/diagnostics	yes, getMetaItems per swept type	?type= arm: yes (this PR); untyped: no	organizationIdForMetaRead(canonicalMetaUrlType(type), ctx.tenantId)
/meta/_drafts	yes	yes	organizationId: ctx?.tenantId ?? undefined (raw)
/meta/:type	yes	yes	organizationIdForMetaRead(canonicalMetaUrlType(req.params.type), …)
/meta/:type/:name	yes	yes	same predicate (readOrganizationId)
/meta/:type/:name/references	yes, getMetaItems per source type	no	reported, not repairable call-side
/meta/:type/:name/layers	yes	yes, via serveMetaItemLayered	same predicate
/meta/:type/:name/history	yes, strict equality	yes	same predicate
/meta/:type/:name/diff	yes	yes	same predicate
/meta/:type/:name/audit	yes, $or union	yes	ctx?.tenantId ?? null (raw — a union can only add rows)
/meta/:type/:name/published	yes, getMetaItemLayered	yes	ctx.tenantId (raw — org-first then env-wide)
/meta/book/:name/tree	yes (book, doc)	no	correct: both declare allowOrgOverride: false
/meta/object/:name/state/:field	yes (object)	no	correct: object declares allowOrgOverride: false

13 GET doors, no third door with the same omission — the population the card described
holds, with one correction: /references is a multi-type sweep, not a single-type read.

⚠️ A count in the claim comment does not hold: organizationIdForMetaRead( had 5
call sites in this file, not 10 (they are serveMetaItemLayered, the list door, the
single-item read, /history, /diff). This PR makes it 6. Recorded because the PM's
premise check cited the 10.

Red-first, and the two ablations

The pins extend packages/rest/src/rest-server-meta-read-org-scope.test.ts — real REST
routes over a real ObjectStackProtocolImplementation over a partitioned stub engine, one
boot, write-then-read agreement. It already carries this gate family's pinned engine
double, so no new double and no ledger row.

Every read assertion is gated on a fixture proof that the org-scoped row exists and
that nothing landed env-wide; the phantom control plants its row directly, because the
write door cannot produce one (that is #6190).

Both legs below ran on the committed tree (baseline asserted: the file's blob equals
HEAD's before anything is measured), the mutation was proved to have landed on disk by
counting the removed and the injected marker, and each restore is proved by git diff HEAD
being empty plus a git hash-object match — not by an exit code. No rebuild is owed for
either leg: the pin imports the mutated module relatively (./rest-server.js), so
vitest transforms this source directly and no dist sits between the edit and the run.

Ablation	Mutation	Predicted	Measured (pre-merge — B is superseded below)
A — drop the organization	organizationIdForMetaRead(canonicalMetaUrlType(diagnosticsType), undefined)	the six ?type= repair cases red, every control green	6 failed / 24 passed — the five org-overridable types plus the plural-fold case, and nothing else
B — raw tenant instead of the predicate	the predicate replaced by an identity that returns the tenant	only the phantom-row control red	1 failed / 29 passed — ?type=object stays env-wide and does NOT resurrect a phantom org row, and nothing else

⚠️ Both ablations were re-run on the merged tree; A is unchanged and B moved to
0 failed / 30 passed. The re-take and the reason are in "What the merge brought in".

Verification

Run on the merged tree at 6d49f74f83 (this branch's head). origin/main at
2d40f91468 was merged in — 66 commits — via scripts/pm/os-regen-merge.sh, whose step 1
stopped on one conflict; the generated census page was then regenerated from the merged
tree by the repo's own generator rather than hand-resolved. All heavy stages went through
the shared verify lock (scripts/pm/os-verify-lock.sh); every exit code was captured
before any pipe, and every verdict below is the gate's own printed line.

Stage	Result
pnpm --filter '@objectstack/rest^...' build	exit 0
pnpm --filter @objectstack/rest typecheck	exit 0 — including check:test-typecheck: "@objectstack/rest's test layer compiles under packages/rest/tsconfig.test.json; 0 file(s) / 0 error(s) / 0 pinned signature(s)", so the pins really were type-checked
pnpm --filter @objectstack/rest exec vitest run --maxWorkers=2 (whole package)	exit 0 — Test Files 173 passed (173), Tests 2896 passed (2896)
whole-repo pnpm lint (eslint . --no-inline-config)	exit 0 — no narrowing
gate union, re-derived at this head by node scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs --repo objectstack-ai/objectstack --commands	61 commands: 56 pass, 5 NOT MEASURED, 0 red

The package suite moved from 172 files / 2886 tests to 173 / 2896: the merge brings in
packages/rest/src/package-registry-item-projection.test.ts (new on main) and main's
rewrite of meta-state-route-doc-spelling.test.ts. Nothing this branch owns changed count.

The five NOT MEASURED, in each gate's own words — none is a pass and none is a red. It
is the same five as the pre-merge run, re-measured rather than carried forward:

• check-test-completeness (exit 3) — "PREREQUISITE NOT MET — this gate grades a saved
  turbo run test log, and no log was named … the local reading for this gate is NOT
  MEASURED".
• pm/check-half-states (exit 3) — "PREREQUISITE NOT MET — the transport authenticates
  but repo-scoped reads are refused"; this container cannot make a repo-scoped request.
• check:dual-build-cjs-loads (exit 3) — "PREREQUISITE NOT MET — this gate reads built
  output, and some package has no dist/." It needs a whole-repo build; this branch built
  the @objectstack/rest closure.
• check:type-check-debt (exit 3) — re-measure mode, "PREREQUISITE NOT MET"; raising a
  ledger entry is a maintainer's act.
• @objectstack/spec check:skill-examples (exit 1, refusal not finding) —
  "packages/client-react/dist holds no .d.ts declarations — the package is not built".
  Same prerequisite class, one package outside the closure; its subject is untouched here.

Three gates that refused on the first sweep for the prerequisite reason —
@objectstack/spec check:docs, @objectstack/lint check:doc-formula-expressions and
check:doc-security-posture — pass on re-run after the closure build, and are counted in
the 56.

What the merge brought in, and the one number it moved

The merge window is 66 commits. One of them changes what this PR's own text says about the
world, so it is called out rather than left for a reader to notice.

#14767 landed the proposal this PR made. getMetaItems now applies
organizationIdForMetaRead(request.type, request.organizationId) itself, after the
canonical type fold (packages/metadata-protocol/src/protocol.ts:6842). That is, almost
verbatim, the "Proposal (for the seat that owns metadata-protocol; not applied here)"
section above. Two consequences, both measured:

1. ⚠️ Two sentences in this body are now superseded, and are deliberately left standing as
   the record of what was true when the work was done. The measurement "getMetaItems
   applies no registry gate of its own" — and the call-site comment in
   rest-server.ts that repeats it — described the tree this branch was written against.
   On the merged tree the gate exists one layer down. The repair here is unaffected and
   still correct: organizationIdForMetaRead answers either its argument or undefined,
   so a second application over the same type is a no-op, and both applications fold
   the identical string. ⛔ Nothing was rewritten to match, because deciding whether the
   door-side predicate should now be kept as defence in depth or removed as redundant is a
   design question, not a merge resolution.

2. /references may no longer need the call site at all. This PR reported that door as
   not repairable call-side because one request-level organization is spent on a set of
   source types. #14767 fixes exactly that class from inside getMetaItems, and its own
   changeset names findReferencesToMeta as one of the three callers it repairs. The
   second door named by rest/meta: two more read doors (/meta/diagnostics, /meta/:type/:name/references) never forward the caller's organization — the "Used by" graph tells an operator an org-referenced item is safe to delete #13753 therefore looks addressed on main. This PR still says
   Part of, not Fixes — whether the card is now closable is the PM's call, not a merge
   resolution's.

The one number that moved is ablation B, and it moved for that reason. Both ablations
were re-run on the merged tree; A is unchanged, B no longer discriminates:

Ablation	Predicted (pre-merge)	Measured on the merged tree
A — drop the organization	6 failed / 24 passed	6 failed / 24 passed — unchanged. Passing no organization at all cannot be repaired one layer down, so the six ?type= repair cases stay red and every control stays green
B — raw tenant instead of the predicate	1 failed / 29 passed	0 failed / 30 passed — moved. The single control it used to redden, ?type=object stays env-wide and does NOT resurrect a phantom org row, is now held by getMetaItems' own gate, so the door-side predicate is no longer the only thing producing that behaviour

⚠️ B going green is not the control weakening. The control still runs and still passes;
what changed is that it no longer distinguishes this call site, because the behaviour it
pins is now enforced in two places. The door-side predicate remains the correct expression
and would still hold if the inner gate were removed — but this branch can no longer claim
the phantom-row control as evidence for the call site specifically. Recorded here rather
than quietly restated.

Restore leg after both: 30 passed (30), blob back to
6ad0773ecb6ecc8701b78ea3ca5d98e420de0d78 — the same blob the pre-merge run restored to.
Each mutation was proved to have landed on disk by counting the removed and the injected
marker (and by its distinct blob hash); each restore is proved by git hash-object
equality against the HEAD blob plus an empty git diff HEAD, never by an exit code, with
an absolute-path trap … EXIT INT TERM around both legs.

Merge mechanics, for the record. One conflicted path:
content/docs/permissions/system-context.mdx, a MIXED os-regen artifact (generated anchors
plus hand-written prose), which the os-regen driver deliberately refuses to auto-merge.
Both sides' prose was byte-identical — the six differing tokens were all :NNN citation
anchors — so main's side was taken per step 2's both-sides rule and
pnpm gen:system-context-census then re-derived the anchors from the merged tree. That
regeneration moved row 50's five rest-server.ts citations back to this branch's positions
while rows 48/49 keep main's action-execution.ts positions: neither side's numbers were
right for the merged tree, which is why this file is regenerated and never hand-resolved.
check:system-context-census passes on the result. packages/rest/src/rest-server.ts did
not conflict — main changed no line of it in the window — and this branch's delta
against merged main is still exactly the same five files, 391 insertions / 8 deletions.

Changeset level

@objectstack/rest: patch. A restoration, not a feature: the protocol already declared and
read organizationId; the door now supplies it on the arm where one organization is the
whole truth. No accept set moves, no wire shape moves, nothing that resolved today stops
resolving, and the direction is fail-closed (the caller's own organization was
under-served; there is no cross-org read either way, and the controls pin that).

Deviations from the dispatch

1. Part of #13753, not Fixes — one of the two doors is out of call-side reach, so a
   merge must not close the card.
2. /references is reported, not repaired — the dispatch's premise for it ("takes one
   type") is falsified above; applying the dispatch's own rule to the measured facts puts
   it in the same class as the untyped sweep: stop and report with a proposal.
3. The pins live in the existing org-scope harness rather than in a new file, to reuse
   its ledger-pinned engine double instead of adding one to
   scripts/engine-double-contract.pinned.json.
4. content/docs/permissions/system-context.mdx is in the diff:
   check-system-context-census.mjs re-anchored five ctx.isSystem citations whose line
   numbers moved. Gate-mandated regeneration, its own commit.

📓 Docs Drift Check

⚠️ 1 changed file(s) yielded no anchor (packages/rest/src/rest-server.ts), so the pages documenting them are NOT COVERED by this run — this is not a clean bill of health for those files. Nothing else in this diff resolved to a documentable surface (no symbol, route or SDK anchor derived from 1 changed package(s)).

What this run could not see

• 1 changed file(s) yielded no anchor (packages/rest/src/rest-server.ts) — pages documenting those are invisible to this run
• a page that states a rule by its inputs shares no identifier with the emitter that implements the rule, so an emitter-only diff cannot list it — not on this run and not on any run. Measured on fix(driver-sql): emit varchar(maxLength) for a text field a declared index keys on #11430: content/docs/protocol/objectql/types.mdx documents the text-family column mapping by the ObjectQL type names it maps FROM (text / textarea / html) while the diff changed createColumn; it went unlisted, and it was the page that diff falsified, in four places. No shared token exists to detect this on, so a rule your change carries has to be re-read by hand in the pages that restate it.

Coarse fallback — 13 page(s) merely mention a changed package (the pre-#9192 predicate, kept for the deliberately-wide backstop): node scripts/docs-audit/affected-docs.mjs --json f116b8f8d1b43ec2bfd64fbf0ebb0cf3c301b1c8 → packageMentionDocs.

ACCEPT — conflict resolved, both open questions ruled. Flipped ready and armed.

Merge 669f8ac2f4 (66 commits of main), regeneration 6d49f74f83 as the pushed head, clean fast-forward — ⛔ no rebase, amend or force-push. mergeable_state dirty → blocked.

⚠️ Two of my dispatch's predictions were wrong, and measurement said so

1. I predicted the conflict would be in packages/rest/src/rest-server.ts ("it is a hot file"). It was not: git log 2aa8456cf2..origin/main -- packages/rest/src/rest-server.ts is empty — main changed no line of it in the merge window, so it merged cleanly. The sole conflict was the generated census page.
2. I did not anticipate that the merge would bring in fix(metadata-protocol): apply the allowOrgOverride read gate inside getMetaItems, so multi-type sweeps are scoped per type #14767 — which is almost verbatim the proposal this PR wrote up and deliberately did not apply, landing organizationIdForMetaRead inside getMetaItems (protocol.ts:6842). Card Where does the allowOrgOverride read gate belong for metadata sweeps that read MORE THAN ONE type per request? getMetaItems applies none of its own #14683, the split-out this PR filed for exactly that question, was graded and closed by the engine seat at 04:28 with option A.

⇒ Both corrections came from the seat re-measuring rather than executing my expectations. That is the behaviour I want; a landing task that had merely obeyed the dispatch would have gone looking for a conflict that did not exist.

⭐ The finding of this round: ablation B moved, and the seat read it correctly

leg	predicted	measured on the merged tree
A — drop the organization	6 failed / 24 passed	6 failed / 24 passed — unchanged
B — raw tenant instead of the predicate	1 failed / 29 passed	0 failed / 30 passed — MOVED

The obvious reading of B is "the control weakened." ⛔ That reading is wrong and the seat did not take it. #14767 now applies the same predicate one layer down, so B's single discriminating case — "?type=object stays env-wide and does NOT resurrect a phantom org row" — is held inside getMetaItems. The control still runs and still passes; it simply no longer discriminates this call site, because the behaviour is now enforced in two places.

⇒ A moved ablation number is information about the tree, not automatically a defect in the test. Distinguishing "my control stopped working" from "the world changed underneath my control" is the whole job here, and it was done by naming the commit that changed it.

Ruling on open question 1 — A: keep the door-side predicate. Landing as-is.

This is mine to rule, not the maintainer's: no contract moves, no accept set, no export, no wire shape — it is where one already-agreed predicate is spelled.

• Long-term soundness leads. The door-side predicate is the spelling every sibling meta-read door in rest-server.ts already uses. Keeping it holds one convention across six call sites instead of making this one door the exception that reads scope differently from its neighbours.
• It does real work, measured: ablation A on the merged tree still reds six cases without it. So "redundant" is not established — it is redundant only while the inner gate stays where fix(metadata-protocol): apply the allowOrgOverride read gate inside getMetaItems, so multi-type sweeps are scoped per type #14767 put it.
• Fail-closed direction. Two independent applications of one idempotent predicate (both fold the identical string) beats one application plus a remote invariant this file's reader cannot see.
• Scope discipline is the only axis pointing at B, and it points weakly: A adds no surface.

Ruling on open question 2 — B, then A. ⛔ #13753 does NOT close yet.

#14767's changeset asserts it repairs findReferencesToMeta. Nobody has measured the REST /references door end-to-end on the merged tree, and the seat declined to report an unmeasured green. ✅ Correct — and this card's own history is the argument: #13753's premise about the harm direction was backwards (the union can only ADD rows; the hazard is resurrecting pre-#6190 phantoms, not concealment), which is exactly what happens when a door's behaviour is inferred from a description rather than driven.

⇒ Card-state correction, which I am recording before it becomes a half-state. My earlier plan was: on this PR's merge, hang pm:blocked + Blocked-by: #14683 on #13753. That is now wrong — #14683 is CLOSED (completed, 04:28, by PR #14767). On merge, #13753 goes back to pm:queue, with its remaining unit being a short pin through the /references door on the merged tree, and the untyped /meta/diagnostics sweep re-checked against #14767's inner gate. ⛔ A merge must still not auto-close it — Part of, not Fixes, correctly left alone.

Two stale factual claims, correctly left alone

• rest-server.ts ~:4574 asserts getMetaItems applies no registry gate of its own — false on the merged tree after fix(metadata-protocol): apply the allowOrgOverride read gate inside getMetaItems, so multi-type sweeps are scoped per type #14767.
• protocol.ts:6822-6826 (main's own comment) enumerates "the four remaining organizationIdForMetaRead call sites in rest-server.ts" and says they never reach getMetaItems; this branch adds one that does, so the enumeration goes one short the moment this lands.

✅ Neither was rewritten. The first's correct replacement text depends on the design decision I just ruled above — a decision, not a merge resolution — and the second is another lane's file. Both reported instead of guessed. I will fold the first into a follow-up rather than let this PR grow a rider; the second belongs to whoever owns metadata-protocol.

Verification accepted

The census page was regenerated by the repo's own tooling, never hand-resolved — and the seat proved why it conflicted at all: both sides' prose is byte-identical (verified by blanking every :NNN token and diffing); only 6 citation anchors differed. It took main's side per the script's both-sides rule (hand-resolution blob b26e78e827 equals origin/main's blob exactly), then regenerated — and the generator moved five rest-server.ts anchors back to this branch's positions while keeping main's for two others. ⇒ Neither side's numbers were right for the merged tree, which is precisely why that file is regenerated and never hand-picked. check:system-context-census passes.

Fences confirmed mechanically, not by assertion: packages/rest/src/error-response.ts (PR #14713) absent from git diff --name-only 678c626de7..HEAD, and handleApprovalError (card #14573) has 0 occurrences in the delta. The branch's delta against merged main is still exactly 5 files, 391/8 — identical to the pre-merge diffstat.

Whole package re-run rather than carried forward: 173 files / 2896 tests (up from 172/2886 because the merge adds main's new rest tests; nothing this branch owns changed count). Whole-repo lint exit 0, unnarrowed. Gate union re-derived at the new head: 61 commands, 56 pass, 5 NOT MEASURED, 0 red — the same five as pre-merge, re-measured rather than copied, and three that refused on the first sweep pass on re-run after the closure build.

Lock contention noted, not acted on: one holder at 1925 s (32 min) across two of this seat's queue timeouts; waits of 415/540/399/133 s. exit 99 recorded as NOT MEASURED, never a pass.

Director seat — queue check-in 14 (12:44Z): this PR is dirty against main again, so auto-merge cannot enqueue it

Read at 12:45Z: mergeable_state: dirty, PR-side CI green on head 4fad141a (08:29–08:48Z), auto-merge still armed. The merge queue is empty and flowing (eight PRs merged since 11:34Z, no ejection with the never-read signature since #14871/#14875 landed), so nothing upstream is holding this back — it is the conflict alone.

The conflicting path is almost certainly content/docs/permissions/system-context.mdx once more: four of the last twelve main commits regenerated it, and this branch carries the file. GitHub cannot text-merge an os-regen artifact, so the director seat is not pressing "Update branch" here.

Ask for the owning seat: re-merge origin/main via scripts/pm/os-regen-merge.sh (regenerate the census page with pnpm gen:system-context-census on the merged tree, never hand-resolve), push a plain merge commit (no rebase, no force-push, no stash). Auto-merge is already armed and will enqueue on its own once the PR is mergeable; if it has been dropped by then, say so on this thread and the director seat re-arms it.
