app-showcase's email template declares `locale: 'en'`, which no `en-US` send can resolve — and it bypasses `defineEmailTemplateDefinition`

[os-elon]

Found while writing content/docs/automation/email-templates.mdx (#10211), by checking the example corpus for a real authored template to model the guide's samples on.

The defect

examples/app-showcase/src/system/emails/index.ts declares:

export const TaskDoneEmail = {
 name: 'showcase_task_done_email',
 // …
 locale: 'en',
 // …
};

sendTemplate's locale ladder is exact match, then en-US, then (no-locale calls only) the bundle's lowest tag — deliberately with no language-prefix matching, so en does not satisfy en-US and vice versa. The ladder is documented on SendTemplateInput.locale in packages/spec/src/contracts/email-service.ts and pinned by packages/plugins/plugin-email/src/template-locale-resolution.test.ts.

Consequences for this row:

call	outcome
sendTemplate({ template: 'showcase_task_done_email' }) (no locale)	resolves — rung 3, because the bundle has no en-US row
sendTemplate({ template: 'showcase_task_done_email', locale: 'en-US' })	TEMPLATE_NOT_FOUND
notify-node delivery for a recipient whose locale is en-US	TEMPLATE_NOT_FOUND

The third one is the one that matters: the notify node's template path resolves (name, recipient locale) per recipient at delivery time, so this template is unreachable for exactly the recipients the showcase is most likely to have. It is latent today only because nothing in the showcase currently references the template by name — the file's own comment calls it "Email template fired by the Task Completed flow", but grep finds no consumer, so the example is both mis-localed and unwired.

The second half — why the schema never caught it

The literal is not wrapped in defineEmailTemplateDefinition(...), so EmailTemplateDefinitionSchema.parse() never runs at authoring time. The schema would not have rejected locale: 'en' either (it is z.string(), not a BCP-47 validator) — but the factory is what applies the en-US default, and an author who omitted locale entirely would have landed on the resolvable value for free.

Worth noting the example corpus is what customers and AI authors copy, and the docs page added in #10211 explicitly warns that zh does not resolve zh-CN — the showcase currently demonstrates the anti-pattern the guide warns about.

Suggested fix

Set locale: 'en-US' (or drop the key and take the default), and wrap the literal in defineEmailTemplateDefinition(...) the way examples/app-showcase/src/automation/jobs/index.ts already wraps its job in defineJob(...). Whether the template should also be wired to the Task Completed flow's notify node is a separate call for whoever owns the showcase.

No label applied — leaving severity to triage. Filed unassigned from the #10211 docs card, whose surface is content/docs/automation/** only.

• Branch: claude/issue-10267-showcase-email-template-locale
• Worktree: /home/user/objectstack-issue-10267（⛔ 禁 git stash）
• File surface: examples/app-showcase 的邮件模板声明 + 其测试 + changeset（按门禁定夺是否需要）
• Container & model: claude-opus-5
• Clause-②: no —— 修的是示例侧的声明，不改 plugin-email 的契约
• Serial constraints: 与在飞的 finding: the direct /sso/register endpoint's ADR-0024 before-hook admits org owners/admins — wider than the platform-admin posture #9653 landed on the /admin/sso/* bridges #10009、同批的 Measure definitions are not fully compiled: aggregate: 'count' ignores field, and /api/v1/analytics/query drops every per-measure filter — the SQL is COUNT(*) for all of them #10298 / [finding] A clean first install shows the newcomer two red ✕ unmet-peer warnings (better-sqlite3, better-call) #10326 面不相交

⚠️ 分诊留的两处判断，我原样交给执行位：

1. 修法是 locale: 'en-US' 还是去掉该字段走默认 —— 由实测 locale ladder 的行为决定，⛔ 不靠猜；并把模板包进 defineEmailTemplateDefinition（绕过它正是本卡的另一半）。
2. 潜在的另一半（模板未接到 Task Completed 流程）由执行位判断是否在范围内 —— 卡面已把它划为独立事项。⛔ 无论判在范围内还是外，都须说明理由，不得默默略过。

⚠️ 现场情报：examples/app-showcase 本班出现过两次无法复现的 CI 红，两次的正确判定都是"不可归因"、两次重跑皆绿。若在本卡遇到该包的红，⛔ 既不要默认是自己造成的，也不要默认是抖动——按"归因需要固定 base 的对照，否则结论是不可归因"处理。

REMEDY CHOSEN: explicit locale: 'en-US', argued from the measurement. Both candidates were run through the same ladder and produce an IDENTICAL materialized row (row.locale='en-US' either way), because defineEmailTemplateDefinition applies the en-US default -- so the ladder settles 'en-US' over 'en' but CANNOT settle explicit-vs-default. 'en-US' beats 'en' decisively because en-US is the ladder's own second rung: a row authored there is reachable from every call shape (explicit en-US, this app's defaultLocale 'en' via rung 2, and no-locale), while any other tag is reachable from strictly fewer. Explicit-over-default was then decided on the axis the measurement leaves open: the corpus is what gets copied, and docs #10211 writes the tag out in both samples. The literal is now wrapped in defineEmailTemplateDefinition (the card's other half). ONE CORRECTION TO THE CARD: its third table row (notify delivery for an en-US recipient -> TEMPLATE_NOT_FOUND) does NOT hold on this app today -- the notify path's locale is II18nService.getDefaultLocale(), and objectstack.config.ts declares defaultLocale: 'en', so showcase deliveries currently pass 'en' and resolve. Rows 1-2 are enough for the defect and the fix is correct for both. LATENT HALF: OUT OF SCOPE, with reason -- NotifyConfigSchema's superRefine refuses `template` combined with inline title/message, and showcase_task_completed's `message: '{summary}'` is the ONLY consumer of the summarize script node's outputVariable, which that flow's own docblock says it exists to demonstrate.

PM 验收：ACCEPT —— PR #10419 翻 ready、入合并队列

Clause-②: no（示例应用内的声明修正，不动契约、不扩公开面）。按内容核对：

① 文件面干净。 5 个文件全在 examples/app-showcase/ 内，加 pnpm-lock.yaml 的 3 行（新增 workspace 依赖的链接条目）。无 packages/spec/**，无 content/docs/releases/**。

② 断言是「解析」，不是「读字符串」。 新测试把声明过一遍真实启动路径 —— 规范 parse → 真实 mapTemplateToRow → 真实 createSysEmailTemplateLoader。没有一条断言在检查源码字面量。而且它钉住了取回行的身份（name + subject + body_html），因为「解析出了别的行」正是裸 not.toBeNull() 看不见的失败模式。

③ 跳过 changeset 的判断我独立核过，成立。 不是习惯，是按门禁：@objectstack/example-showcase 是 private: true，且不在 .changeset/config.json 的 fixed 集合里（我反向对照过——该集合有 69 个真实条目，所以这次查找是有效的），所以没有任何东西会发布。仓库对应的机制是 skip-changeset 标签，开发用了它并读回确认机器人的两个标签没有被自己的写覆盖掉。

④ vitest alias 的加法尊重了门禁的意图。 通过 workspace 链接 @objectstack/plugin-email 会解析到 dist/，陈旧的 dist 会拿旧的 locale 阶梯去评判这些声明 —— 而那正是这些断言唯一要测的东西。开发选了 source alias 而不是往 check:test-source-alias 的注册表里加条目，并引用了该门禁自己的表头（注册表只收不放，「加一条或放宽一条不是修红构建的办法」）。没有抬任何账本。

⑤ 重建陈述被自己的测量纠正了，这一点值得记。 第一版理由写的是「app-showcase 没有 dist/」—— 对当时的工作树为真，但不是承重事实，因为 pnpm build 确实会产出 examples/app-showcase/dist（被 gitignore）。真正承重的事实是：被改的文件经相对说明符 '../src/system/emails/index.js' 到达，vitest 从源码转译，这条路径上没有包解析也没有 dist。两条消融腿都在 dist 存在的情况下重跑过，行为一致。
自己推翻自己先写下的理由、并说明为什么新理由才是承重的那条 —— 这是对的做法。

⑥ 第二次消融如实报告为「部分覆盖」。 拆掉 defineEmailTemplateDefinition 但把每个带默认值的键都手写全 → 仍然绿（完整字面量本来就是 parse 的不动点）；拆掉并且省略默认键（现实中的绕过形态）→ 在不动点断言上变红。开发明说了「守的是后果，不是包装器」，没有把部分覆盖说成完整覆盖。

---

卡面更正：本卡表格第三行不成立 —— 是我这张卡写错了

开发测出：notify 路径的 locale 取自 II18nService.getDefaultLocale()，而 objectstack.config.ts 声明 defaultLocale: 'en'，所以 showcase 的投递今天传的是 'en' 并且能解析到（旧行正是 locale: 'en'，走阶梯第 1 级精确命中）。因此卡面第三行「en-US 收件人的 notify 投递 → TEMPLATE_NOT_FOUND」在这个 app 上今天不成立。

第 1、2 行足以成立本缺陷，修复对两者都正确 —— 修好后该行位于 en-US，而 en-US 是阶梯自己的第 2 级，所以每一种调用形态都能到达它：显式 en-US（第 1 级）、本 app 的 defaultLocale: 'en'（第 2 级）、以及不带 locale 的调用。换成任何其它标签，可达的调用形态都严格更少。

这条更正是开发测出来并主动报上来的，不是我发现的。记在这里，卡面的错误归我。

另填 #10394，且拒绝顺手接线是对的

showcase_task_done_email 声明了却没有任何流程引用它。把它接进 showcase_task_completed 的 notify 节点是替换而非追加 —— NotifyConfigSchema 的 superRefine 拒绝 template 与内联 title/message 并存，而那句 message: '{summary}' 是 summarize 脚本节点 outputVariable 的唯一消费者，那个流程的 docblock 说它存在就是为了演示这件事。顺手接上等于掏空另一个刻意的演示。开发填了三个已定价选项的卡，并且把模板 docblock 里「由 Task Completed 流程触发」这句不再为真的话改掉了 —— 没有留下一句自己刚刚证伪的散文。

Follow-up after PM reported PR #10419 red in CI. Supersedes the previous report; the only substantive change is the check:type-source-resolution fix and the re-run gate union at the new head.

 "summary": "UNCHANGED from the previous report on the substance of the card: premise confirmed behaviourally (sendTemplate locale='en-US' THREW 'TEMPLATE_NOT_FOUND: showcase_task_done_email (locale=en-US)'; a no-locale send resolved only via rung 3, which is why it was latent). Remedy: explicit locale 'en-US' plus the defineEmailTemplateDefinition wrapper; both candidate remedies were measured to produce an IDENTICAL materialized row, so the ladder settles 'en-US' over 'en' (en-US is the ladder's own second rung, hence reachable from every call shape) but cannot settle explicit-vs-default, which was decided on the corpus-is-copied axis per docs #10211. Latent half OUT OF SCOPE with reason, filed as #10394. FOLLOW-UP THIS ROUND: CI was red on 7bfca1da4 in 'Lint & Repo Gates' — check-type-source-resolution FAILED, '@objectstack/example-showcase: NEW dist-resolved type import(s) since this entry was measured: @objectstack/plugin-email'. Real and mine. The vitest alias I added closed the RUNTIME half of the staleness exposure the new devDependency creates; it has a second exposure on the TYPE path, where unaliased plugin-email contributes dist/*.d.ts to the app's tsc program, so tsc --noEmit graded the declarations against whatever was last built. Fixed in 80a65cb0d by adding the `paths` rule the gate asks for to examples/app-showcase/tsconfig.json, mirroring the existing @objectstack/formula entry. Bare key, no star: a tsconfig paths key without a star is an EXACT match, whereas '@objectstack/plugin-email*' would fold every subpath onto one target and type-check green against the wrong module (the trap that gate's own header names). The shrink-only KNOWN_DIST_RESOLVED_TYPE_IMPORTS registry is UNTOUCHED — same discipline already followed for check:test-source-alias. Scope kept minimal: one file, tsconfig.json only; the locale change, the test and the vitest alias were not touched. OBSERVATION FOR PM, not corrected by me: PR #10419 now reads draft=false. I created it as a draft and the read-back immediately after creation confirmed draft=true; I passed no draft parameter on the body update. Another actor flipped it to ready (consistent with auto-merge being armed), so per the shared-identity rule I left it alone rather than reverting — flipping a ready PR back to draft would silently destroy auto-merge and merge-queue membership.",

GATE UNION RE-DERIVED AND RE-RUN IN FULL AT THE NEW HEAD 80a65cb0d (not carried over from the old head — the ratchet families were re-read there), exit codes captured before any pipe, each quoted from the gate's own verdict line, all exit 0: check:type-source-resolution ('OK — 76 packages with a tsconfig.json scanned; 51 registered'), check:test-source-alias ('OK — 72 packages with tests scanned; 61 registered; 44 published subpath(s) resolved through every alias table'), check:cross-package-test-inputs ('OK: 12 package(s) read outside themselves, all declared'), check:override-consistency, check-changeset-fixed.mjs, check-osv-exemptions.mjs, check:query-options-erasure ('ratchet holds: 67 unswept non-test site(s), none new'), check:type-check-coverage, check:engine-double-contract, check:where-matcher ('266 matcher(s) discovered, 266 answer the combinator battery correctly'), check:nul-bytes ('scanned 6115 text file(s) ... no raw ASCII control bytes'), and check:type-check-debt --re-measure on a full rebuilt closure ('33 ledger entr(ies) re-measured in 227.4s, 1924 raw tsc error(s) total, none above its recorded number' — unchanged, no ledger raised anywhere). PR body updated to match, including correcting the type-check-debt timing to the new-head measurement rather than leaving the old one under a claim that every verdict came from that run. DERIVATION GAP, as a data point for #10309 and NOT a new card: check:type-source-resolution is a real family (lint.yml:1318) and is the tsconfig-paths sibling of the vitest-alias gate I did run, yet `node scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs` never names it — verified with a working control that it STILL does not, even now that examples/app-showcase/tsconfig.json is in the change set (0 mentions of 'type-source-resolution' in the derivation output vs 1 for a control term known present). The lesson I'd record: a new workspace dependency creates TWO staleness exposures, runtime and type, and satisfying the runtime gate reads as complete because the type gate is silent.",

CI 红 → 已修复（80a65cb0d），验收维持 ACCEPT

我上一条验收后 CI 在 Lint & Repo Gates 变红，是真红且属于本 PR：check-type-source-resolution 报 @objectstack/example-showcase: NEW dist-resolved type import(s) since this entry was measured: @objectstack/plugin-email。已退回原开发修复并推送。

按内容核过修法，形状是对的：

"paths": {
 "@objectstack/formula": ["../../packages/formula/src/index.ts"],
 "@objectstack/plugin-email": ["../../packages/plugins/plugin-email/src/index.ts"]
}

• 裸键、无星号，与既有的 formula 条目同形。开发点出了那个陷阱并写进注释：'@objectstack/plugin-email*' 会把每一个子路径折叠到这一个目标上，从而对着错误的模块类型检查通过 —— 正是该门禁自己表头点名的坑。
• shrink-only 注册表未动（不在 diff 里），与它先前对 check:test-source-alias 的处理同一纪律。
• 范围最小：只加 tsconfig.json 一处，locale 改动、测试、vitest alias 均未触碰。
• 先复现再修：修前 BEFORE_EXIT=1 且报错文本与 CI 逐字一致，修后 AFTER_EXIT=0。不是照着预测打补丁。
• 门禁并集在新 head 重新推导并整套重跑，不是沿用旧结果；并且把 PR 正文里 type-check-debt 的旧计时数字改成新一轮的实测，而不是让旧数字留在「所有结论都出自这一轮」的说法底下。

这条缺口的教训，值得记进 #10309 而不是新开卡

开发核实过：check:type-source-resolution 是真实存在的门禁族（lint.yml:1318），是它确实跑了的 vitest-alias 门禁的 tsconfig-paths 姊妹，但 scripts/pm/dispatch-gates.mjs 从不点名它 —— 而且即便现在 examples/app-showcase/tsconfig.json 已经进入变更集，推导输出里仍然 0 次提及（用一个已知存在的对照词验证过搜索有效）。

值得写下来的一句：一个新的 workspace 依赖会同时制造两处陈旧暴露 —— 运行时的和类型的；而满足了运行时那道门禁会读起来像已经完成，恰恰因为类型那道门禁是沉默的。

⚠️ 这一半的责任在我：本车道的 claim 注记整场都在向开发交付一份不完整的门禁并集。已作为数据点归到 #10309，未另开卡。
