metadata-protocol: duplicatePackage renames a token that names both a prefixed package object and one of its fields as the object, so a copied view's column or form field names a field the copy does not have (family close-out)

Filing gate ①, finding class (a), the close-out card for the duplicatePackage "names out of step" family (#23527, #23537, #23538). reach: the named producer ObjectStackProtocolImplementation.duplicatePackage (the method the packages duplicate route calls), on a real kernel (ObjectKernel + ObjectQLPlugin, memory driver), measured at main 8226755ee9 and at PR #23559's head dbd69f7592. The HTTP door was not driven.

Filed by domain:spec seat 4 (#18917) · sunhaolin · session session_0121ooBYRmS8ziFXm9ai5YHm, from #23538's dev report 6181410407 (open question and out-of-scope finding 1). ⛔ Not a claim. Lane, type and grade are triage's.

What happens (measured)

The source object dupsrc_customer has a field keyed and named dupsrc_customer. That token is both a prefixed package object's name and a field key. The free-text rewrite renames it as the object everywhere it appears as a value:

A list view with columns: ['full_name', 'dupsrc_customer']:
- on main it copied with column dupdst_customer, which the data plane refuses (Unknown field 'dupdst_customer' on object 'dupdst_customer');
- with PR fix(metadata-protocol): duplicatePackage keeps a copied field's key and name, and a bare object's view item name, in step with what they name #23559 it is refused at the copy: view/dupdst_customer.board failed author-time validation: … views[0].config.columns[1] [list-view-field-unknown]. That refusal is loud and located.
A form view with sections[].fields: ['full_name', 'dupsrc_customer'] copies silently as ['full_name', 'dupdst_customer'], a field the copy does not have.

Pull, measured: across examples/app-crm, app-showcase and app-todo (51 object names, a grep of *.object.ts), no field key equals an object name. The repro is synthetic.

What done looks like

A copied value that names a FIELD keeps naming that field, in list-view columns and form sections[].fields (the sites to enumerate). A value that names the OBJECT still follows the object's rename.

The token is ambiguous, so the fix picks a semantics. The dev's readings:

(B) rename such a name only at object-reference sites, never in free text, extending the bare-name policy (about 15 lines plus a pin);
(C) rename the field too, which reverses the landed rule that a fields key's field part is never read.

Triage decides whether this is a seat call or a decision card.

Noted, not measured (read from the code): a view CONTAINER row (no ., for example ticket_views) is still renamed by the prefix swap alone, so a bare object's container copies under the source's name. A container name has no declared <object>. identity, so it is not a contract breach. It is recorded here for the family, not for a fix.

Reader who acts: triage, to grade and route. The fix lands in duplicatePackage (packages/metadata-protocol/src/protocol.ts), after PR #23559 (#23538) lands.

Dedupe

MCP search_issues on objectstack-ai/objectstack, closed included, query duplicatePackage field reference renamed as object free-text rewrite field token equals object name copied view column unknown field: 1 hit, #23538 (open), the parent family card, which is not this residual.

Dedupe words: duplicatePackage field token equals object name; copied view column unknown field after duplicate; form sections field dangling after duplicate.

Triage: first grade · `bug` · `priority:p3` · `domain:spec` · `pm:queue` · direction B · land after PR #23559 · triage seat · `session_01AavokzJ5DndAwitDXvKy4U` · 2026-10-15T01:03Z

Read fresh. When a field key equals a prefixed package object's name, duplicatePackage's free-text rewrite renames it as the object. A copied list-view column is then refused loudly (after PR #23559), but a form view's sections[].fields copies silently with a field the copy does not have.

priority:p3: synthetic. The measured pull is zero: no field key equals an object name across the three example apps.
Direction: B, a seat call, not a decision card. Rename such a name only at object-reference sites, never in free text. That extends the landed bare-name policy, at about 15 lines plus a pin. C would reverse the landed rule that a fields key's field part is never read. ⛔ Not C.
Not in the protocol-first class: producer behaviour.
Lane domain:spec, the family close-out. It lands after PR fix(metadata-protocol): duplicatePackage keeps a copied field's key and name, and a bare object's view item name, in step with what they name #23559.
The view-container note stays recorded only, as the card says.

The fields record keys of every object row in the source package are collected, and any prefixed renamed object name that is also such a key is left out of the free-text regex. It is then rewritten only at object-reference properties, the existing bare-name path; reference-sites.ts is not edited. The field-key set is package-wide, the superset of the two readings. As the ruling implies, free text naming such an object (a description) is left as stored; the landed description pin is flipped, and the whole-identifier rule is re-pinned on a new unambiguous object dupsrc_note. Earlier blocker: the classifier refused the first push.
