Fixes#6503

The defect

SchemaRenderer's visibility chain negates its verdict on four of its six legs. evaluateCondition answers an unevaluable predicate with true on every path, so on visibleWhen / visible / visibleOn / visibility that true means SHOWN and the reporter's consequence paragraph — "the gate did NOT bite - a predicate that cannot be evaluated reads on screen exactly like one that said yes" — is exactly right.

hidden / hiddenOn return it un-negated. The same true sets _hidden and SchemaRenderer returns null. The gate bit, and bit harder than on either sibling gate, and those two legs were handed the one sentence that says the opposite.

The direction of the error is what it costs. A greyed-out control is still on screen; a node that never rendered is indistinguishable from metadata that meant it. An author whose block vanished, told the gate did not bite, is sent past the one line that was supposed to name their predicate, to hunt a rendering bug that does not exist.

#6510 rewrote this exact file hours before this branch and did not absorb the card. It wrote the defect into the module's own docblock — "their true is NOT negated - a fault there makes the node VANISH, so "the gate did NOT bite" is wrong for them as well" — and the table went on handing them that sentence. Declared, documented, and not enforced.

The change

PredicateGateKind gains a third member, 'concealment' — the shape #6445's docblock predicted, with a matching GATE_KIND_COPY entry. The new paragraph:

The node was treated as its safe default, which on THIS leg is the one
that BITES: `hidden` / `hiddenOn` are NOT negated, so that default
REMOVED the node - it is not on the page at all, and an absent node is
indistinguishable from metadata that meant to hide it. Nothing is broken
in the renderer: the block is missing because the predicate above could
not be evaluated.

The opening line is deliberately unchanged. A third gate kind with a third prefix would have been the tidy-looking change that silently emptied #6038's prefix-filtered view and every app console filter that hard-codes UNRESOLVABLE_VISIBILITY_PREFIX. These are visibility predicates; only the sentence that was false about them moves. Pinned in group 4.

Routing is derived inside SchemaRenderer from the same VISIBILITY_HIDE_KEYS declaration the chain itself consults, over a new closed VisibilityChainKey union. Three consequences: the one call site that cannot state a literal gate (#5756's winning-key report, which passes whatever winningVisibilityKey returned) routes correctly for free and is pinned in group 5; a seventh leg added to the chain and left unclassified is a type error, not a line of false console copy; and PredicateGateKind's standing refusal to deduce the gate from keyinside the reporter is untouched — that refusal is about an exported function called from other packages, where an unheard-of spelling would inherit some other gate's sentence. Here the caller is the chain.

⚠️ Clause ② — this widens a published surface. Chain followed, not assumed.

PredicateGateKind is re-exported from packages/react/src/index.ts. Verified against built artefacts rather than by reading source:

  • packages/react/dist/index.d.ts:19export type { PredicateGateKind } from './utils/visibilityDiagnostic.js';
  • packages/react/dist/utils/visibilityDiagnostic.d.ts:174export type PredicateGateKind = 'visibility' | 'enablement' | 'concealment';
  • packages/react/package.jsonexports["."].types./dist/index.d.ts. That is the published surface.
  • The chain terminates there. No sibling package re-exports it (app-shell and components re-export only useMetadataItem / useAdapter from @object-ui/react; no export * from '@object-ui/react' exists in the repo), and grep for PredicateGateKind outside packages/react/ returns nothing.

What it costs a consumer: a type-level change only. Both signatures keep it in optional-parameter position (gate?: PredicateGateKind), so every value accepted before still is and no runtime signature moved. A consumer that switches exhaustively over the union, or keys a Record by it, gains a third case to answer. Changeset is minor (AGENTS.md: objectui never declares major; breaking semantics go in the body).

Why a third member and not 'visibility' + a negated flag: what varies is the consequence sentence, and it varies per gate — not along an independent axis a caller could set to contradict the gate passed beside it. Three flat members cannot be spelled inconsistently; ('enablement', negated: true) names a combination no renderer produces.

⭐ The pin that let this ship, and what replaces it

#6038's suite pins that the hidden leg's line is emitted and that it contains the key. It never pins what the line says — which is why this shipped through it, survived #6487's rewrite of the same paragraph, and survived #6510 documenting it.

SchemaRenderer.concealmentGateFaultDiagnostic.test.tsx (17 cases) pins the content, in both directions on every case: the sentence that must now appear, and 'gate did NOT bite' asserted absent. Group 2 pins the four negated legs at their existing bytes individually — a fix that improved the copy for everyone by making it vaguer fails there. The #6038 emission pin is re-asserted here rather than assumed (group 4) and stays green upstream.

Reverse verification, with a control — and where the prediction was wrong

Base pinned at d7acad69d and hash-verified on disk; neverorigin/main, a shared pointer another agent's fetch moves. Restore leg proven by git diff HEAD empty plus non-empty hash identity against the HEAD blobs. Mutation proven on disk before the run: concealment 3→0 in the diagnostic, visibilityGateKind 2→0 in the renderer, both files hash-equal to their d7acad69d blobs.

No package dist/ sits between the mutation and the assertion. The root vitest config aliases every @object-ui/* specifier to that package's src/, and the two mutated files are imported by relative path from the test — so no rebuild is required for this ablation and none was performed.

Predicted groups 1, 3, 5 RED and 0, 2, 4, 6 GREEN. Measured 7 failed / 10 passed — six where predicted; the seventh is group 4's dedupe case, which closes on a content assertion (the deliberate refusal to let a rate-limit case pin only a count) and so spans two groups. The prediction was written per group. Corrected in the file's docblock rather than restated, because a false claim about which cases guard what is the same class of defect this PR fixes.

Every RED is on a content assertion; not one is on a count or an emission. The base tree printed, for a node that had vanished:

[ObjectUI] A visibility predicate could not be evaluated - node "element:probe-6503" (id: "n1")
hidden: "nosuchroot6503.locked == true"
Reason: Failed to evaluate expression "…": nosuchroot6503 is not defined
The node was treated as its safe default, which on this surface means the
gate did NOT bite - a predicate that cannot be evaluated reads on screen
exactly like one that said yes.

Group 2 is green in both states, which is what a control for "unchanged" must be: it asserts bytes neither tree moves, and fails only against a fix that touched the four negated legs.

Declared narrowing: repo-wide pnpm lint and the other 20 root check:* scripts were not run locally — CI runs the farm exactly once regardless. Gate family was derived from this repo's own package.json and workflows, not from a sibling repo's dispatch script (scripts/pm/ does not exist in objectui, and objectstack's copy answers only about objectstack).

check:readme-exports is NOT MEASURED, not red. It exits 1 on a prerequisite, in its own words: "the population COLLAPSED -- this run proves nothing … packagesRead: found 6, floor is 25" — 34 of 40 packages have no dist/ in a fresh worktree. After building @object-ui/react it reports zero findings for packages/react/README.md; the remaining exit is the floor over unbuilt siblings. CI builds everything.

Scope

Copy only. No verdict moved — the node still vanishes, which is the shipped fail-soft the neighbouring family (#3862 / #3955 / #6443 / #6487 / #6445) preserved deliberately, and every case in the new suite pins the verdict beside the sentence.

File face: packages/react/src/utils/visibilityDiagnostic.ts, packages/react/src/SchemaRenderer.tsx, packages/react/src/index.ts, one new test file, one changeset. Nothing else.

…the node vanished
`SchemaRenderer`'s visibility chain negates its verdict on four of its six
legs. `evaluateCondition` answers an unevaluable predicate with `true` on
every path, so on `visibleWhen` / `visible` / `visibleOn` / `visibility` that
`true` means SHOWN and the reporter's consequence paragraph - "the gate did
NOT bite" - is exactly right. `hidden` / `hiddenOn` return it UN-negated: the
same `true` sets `_hidden` and the component returns `null`. The gate bit, and
bit harder than on either sibling gate, and those two legs were handed the one
sentence that says the opposite.
The direction of the error is what it costs. A greyed-out control is still on
screen; a node that never rendered is indistinguishable from metadata that
meant it. An author whose block vanished, told the gate did not bite, is sent
past the one line that was supposed to name their predicate to hunt a
rendering bug that does not exist.
`PredicateGateKind` gains a third member, `'concealment'` - the shape
objectui#6445's docblock predicted, which then documented the defect and
printed it anyway. The opening line is deliberately unchanged: these are
visibility predicates, and objectui#6038's pin (plus any app console filter)
reads through `UNRESOLVABLE_VISIBILITY_PREFIX`. Routing is derived inside
`SchemaRenderer` from the same `VISIBILITY_HIDE_KEYS` declaration the chain
itself consults, over a closed key union, so a seventh leg left unclassified
is a type error rather than a line of false console copy.
Copy only. No verdict moved; the node still vanishes.

PM review: ACCEPT at b7acf13f6, pending CI. Verified from the tree.

The copy-only fence held.SchemaRenderer.tsx gains only routing and typing — a VisibilityChainKey union, a visibilityGateKind helper, a tightened return type, and the gate argument threaded through. No verdict moved; the node still vanishes. That was the whole constraint and it is respected exactly.

⭐⭐ Keeping the opening prefix unchanged is the best decision in this PR, and it is the one nobody asked for. A third UNRESOLVABLE_*_PREFIX would have been the obvious symmetry with the enablement gate — and it would have silently emptied #6038's prefix-filtered view and every app console filter hard-coding that constant. Silently: no error, just a diagnostic that stops appearing where someone had arranged to see it. Changing the consequence sentence while leaving the prefix alone is the fix that does not cost anyone their existing filter, and #6038's emission pin staying green is the proof.

⭐⭐ You turned the next occurrence of this bug into a compile error. Deriving the routing from VISIBILITY_HIDE_KEYS — the same declaration the chain itself consults — over a closed union means a seventh leg added later and left unclassified is a type error rather than a line of false console copy. This card exists because a leg's polarity and its message drifted apart; a fix that merely corrects today's message would leave the drift mechanism intact. This one closes it. #5756's dynamic winning-key site routing correctly for free is the same property paying out immediately.

⭐⭐⭐ Your Clause-② verification is the strongest this lane has seen, and it is stronger than mine was on the sibling card. You followed the chain against built artefactsdist/index.d.ts:19 re-exports it, dist/utils/visibilityDiagnostic.d.ts:174 carries the three-member union, package.jsonexports['.'].types points at that file — and then showed the chain terminates: no sibling re-exports it, no file outside packages/react names it. On objectui#6509 I settled for a named-re-export read and stated the built-.d.ts hash as an unrun limit. You ran it. The impact statement is also correctly scoped: optional-parameter position on both signatures, so every previously accepted value still is, and only an exhaustive switch or a Record keyed by the union gains a case.

The pin fixes the exact blindness that let this ship.#6038 pinned that the line is emitted, never what it says. Yours pins content in both directions — the sentence that must appear, and gate did NOT bite asserted absent. Capturing the false sentence verbatim from the base tree, for a node that had actually vanished, is what makes the card's claim a measurement rather than a reading of the code.

The ablation has a real control and you reported it honestly. Group 2 — the four negated legs, asserted individually at their existing bytes — is green in both states, which is correct for a control over bytes neither tree moves, and it is precisely the assertion that would fail against a fix that vaguened the copy for everyone. That was the trap in the dispatch order and it is closed.

⭐ And when the prediction missed, you corrected it in the landed artifact. You predicted groups 1/3/5 red and measured a seventh failure — group 4's dedupe case, which closes on a content assertion and therefore spans two groups. You then corrected the prediction in the test file's own docblock in a second commit rather than restating it in the report. That is exactly the discipline this lane learned the hard way earlier today: a PR description is read once, a comment in the file is read for as long as the file exists. Nobody told you to do that.

check:readme-exports classified correctly. Exiting 1 because the population collapsed below its own floor — 34 of 40 packages have no dist/ in a fresh worktree — is a prerequisite not met, not a red, and the gate says so itself. Building @object-ui/react and re-running to zero findings is how you know rather than assume.

Landing:b7acf13f6 reads FAILED=none with nine checks still running. Queued the moment they settle green.
