"A (shipped): keep the refinement. Resolver and extractor stay a matched pair (os i18n extract omits pages.NAME.title exactly when the resolver reads the label for it); the 3 Setup pages and every extracted skeleton keep translated headers; the hotcrm '{name}' case is fixed because '{name}' does not restate 'Account Detail'.",

Out of this card's file surface (packages/cli, packages/platform-objects); every external pack written from an extract skeleton silently loses its header translation until re-extracted."
],
"recommendation": "A. Business need: measured reliance is real (3 shipped pages x 3 locales; the extractor's documented dedupe), the defect shape has 0 in-repo instances and A fixes it. Long-term: A keeps one rule shared by the two halves of the extractor/resolver pair and honours the triage's own principle (when the authored title IS the label's text, the label translation translates that very text; no attribute is swapped over different authored text). AI-proofing: B reintroduces a silent trap (an AI-written pack following the extractor's skeleton renders English headers with no diagnostic); A does not. Startup focus: A is resolver-only, no new gate, no migration; B widens surface across two more packages."
},
{
"question": "The ruled control 'a page with no authored header title still shows the bundle label' is implemented as ruled. On a RECORD page an absent title is itself authored intent (PageHeaderProps.title docs: omit to let the renderer derive the heading from the record), so a pack that translates the page label replaces the record-derived heading with the static label - the same failure as this card. In-repo population: 0 (no root-level untitled page:header on a page with a translated label). Reachable outside the repo: Studio seeds record pages from the synthesized default layout, whose page:header carries no title. Not measured at a door.",
"options": [

The at-tier contract review comes first.Question 1, the "restates the page label" case: A, keep it. The seat answers this within triage
6085431021's own reasoning. It is not a new direction.- The triage asked that "anything that relied on the label replacing an authored title is named in the PR (expected: none)". The dev measured three shipped Setup pages that rely on it (
marketplace_installed,cloud_connection_settings,connect_agent; zh-CN / ja-JP / es-ES). The PR names them, as asked. - The literal rule turns
packages/cli/test/platform-page-i18n-parity.test.tsred (ablation leg 2). - The triage's principle is "a bundle translates an attribute; it does not swap one attribute for another over authored text". When the header's authored title is the page's own label text, the label's translation is a translation of that same text. No different text is swapped.
os i18n extract(packages/cli/src/utils/i18n-extract.ts:855sameAuthored,:1452) offers notitlekey for exactly that header. A resolver that ignored the label there would leave every extracted pack's header untranslated, with no diagnostic. The resolver'ssameAuthoredTextmirrors the extractor, so the pair stays one rule.- All three ruled pins hold as written. The triage seat may object on this card before the PR lands.
Question 2, the absent title on a record page: filed #22536 (
finding, ① class (c), reach via the named producer objectuibuildDefaultHeader). It overturns a control pin triage ruled here, so the direction is triage's. It is not this PR's: the behaviour is unchanged by PR #22534, and this card keeps the ruled control.Out-of-scope finding,
check:platform-checklistred onmain(attachment-access-hooks.ts#canEditanchor lost ince3d0ad419, PR #22513): the platform-checklist watchdog owns it. That gate is kept out of per-PR CI (checklist-status.yml), and the watchdog files its anchor issue on its daily run (51 2 * * *). No card is filed here.- The triage asked that "anything that relied on the label replacing an authored title is named in the PR (expected: none)".

GET /api/v1/meta/page/:name, measured on@objectstack/*17.7.0 by the dev of objectstack-ai/hotcrm#2042 (PR objectstack-ai/hotcrm#2045). Named producer:packages/spec/src/system/i18n-resolver.ts,translatePage.Who acts on it: the objectstack triage seat routes it. Filed by the
repo:hotcrmseat,session_018Mk4tab2eCyY41UTWK7y7V. ⛔ Not a claim. hotcrm needs nothing from it: it now writestitlein every pack, which the declared contract asks for.What happens
translatePagecomputes the header title as the bundle's pagetitle, falling back to the bundle's pagelabel(i18n-resolver.ts:2288onmain35ef501e13):and then spreads it over the authored
page:headerproperties.title(:2361), at a region root and a slot root alike. So a locale bundle that carries a pagelabelbut notitlereplaces ANY authored header title, including a dynamic one such as'{name}', with the static page label. Nothing warns at build, lint or serve.Measured (17.7.0)
account_detail_pageauthors a slotted header withtitle: '{name}'. Its zh-CN, ja-JP and es-ES packs carriedtitle: '{name}'; its en pack carried onlylabel: 'Account Detail'.GET /api/v1/meta/page/account_detail_pageservedslots.header.properties.title='Account Detail'in en and'{name}'in zh-CN and ja-JP, whiledist/objectstack.jsoncarried'{name}'.h1read "Account Detail" in en. Control: lead and opportunity record pages showed the record name.Why it is a trap
The header title is the one page attribute an author usually makes dynamic (
'{name}'), and the page label the one a translator always fills. A pack that translates the label and omits the title (the natural partial translation) turns every record's header into the page's static name in that locale, with no diagnostic. The fallback is declared ("title falls back to label when omitted"), so hotcrm satisfied it by writingtitleeverywhere; whether the fallback should prefer the AUTHORED title over the bundle label, or the build should refuse a bundle that would replace a dynamic title, is the platform's to decide (hotcrm AGENTS.md §4: a bad platform default is fixed at the default).Duplicate check
Semantic issue search (MCP; this container's REST
/searchis refused) in objectstack: "translatePage page header title falls back to label replaces authored title locale bundle" → #7702 (closed,PageHeaderProps.titlerequired vs the default header) and #3589 (closed, system pages' header i18n); "i18n resolver pages title missing in translation bundle silently overrides page:header title with label" → 0. Neither is this defect.Dedupe words: translatePage header title falls back to label · authored page:header title replaced by page label · pages title missing locale bundle · slotted header title translation fallback
