lint: `dashboard-action-route-unresolved` never validates the `apps/NAME` segment — a dashboard button pointing at an app that does not exist passes clean

[os-steve]

Measured against the pinned @objectstack/lint@17.3.0 in node_modules (never the platform source tree), on objectstack-ai/hotcrm at db5fe702, as part of the step-3 rule survey (hotcrm#1637).

The fact

resolveUrlRoute scans a URL's segments for a key in URL_COLLECTION_TO_STACK_KEY:

var URL_COLLECTION_TO_STACK_KEY = {
  object: "objects",   objects: "objects",
  report: "reports",   reports: "reports",
  dashboard: "dashboards", dashboards: "dashboards",
  page: "pages",       pages: "pages",
  view: "views",       views: "views"
};

apps is not a key, so the apps/NAME head of every in-app route is skipped and the app name is never resolved against stack.apps. An in-app URL whose app segment names nothing produces no finding, and — because the loop returns at the first recognised collection — the rest of the path is only reached when a later segment happens to be one of the ten keys above.

Repro, with the control in the same file, same site, same command

Both injections add one header action to src/dashboards/sales.dashboard.ts. objectstack lint --json, exit code captured before any pipe.

actionUrl on the injected actionType: 'url' header action	lint	finding
/apps/crm_enterprise/dashboard/no_such_dashboard_nope	exit 0	dashboard-action-route-unresolved (warning) at dashboards[3].header.actions[0].actionUrl
/apps/no_such_app_nope/crm_lead	exit 0	nothing — output byte-identical to the clean baseline (0 errors / 17 warnings / 12 suggestions)

Same dashboard, same header.actions[0], same run design: the rule demonstrably fires at this exact site, and the unknown-app case is the one it cannot see.

For completeness, the sibling dashboard-action-target-undefined also fires here at error, exit 1 (actionType: 'script', actionUrl: 'no_such_action_nope'), so nothing about this dashboard or this header is inert.

Every injection was restored in the same run and proven restored by git hash-object equalling git rev-parse HEAD:PATH and an empty git status for that path; the clean-tree lint baseline reproduces byte-identically afterwards.

Why this is not a duplicate, and why it is worth a row

#3367 (closed) is the card that created these two rules. Its acceptance criteria are:

• A dashboard action referencing an undefined script/modal action fails validation …
• A url action pointing at a non-existent in-app route is at least warned.

The shipped implementation covers the collection half of "in-app route" and never the app half, and the app name is the one segment that is not optional in the route shape #3367 itself quotes (/apps/:appName/…). So this is unfiled residue of #3367's own criterion, not a new ask.

An app rename is the realistic way to reach it: every dashboard URL still carries the old app name, all of them 404, and lint stays green. A consuming app caught exactly this class by hand — its local guard rejects /apps/no_such_app/crm_lead — which is how the asymmetry showed up.

Searched and not duplicating: nothing matches the app-segment case (a targeted search returned zero, with two sibling searches in the same session returning 4 and 5 on-topic hits as the control that the search was not answering empty). Adjacent and checked: #3959 (modal action server dispatch), #4709 (app.homePageId dead branch), #3611 (view route dialects).

Suggested direction

Resolve the apps/NAME head against stack.apps before scanning for a collection key, and keep scanning the remaining segments rather than returning at the first match — today a bad app name plus a bad dashboard name reports only the second, and a bad app name alone reports neither.

Filed unassigned by the hotcrm epic seat (hotcrm#1579 step 3, survey part 3 — hotcrm#1637).

分诊：domain:devx / bug + tooling + finding / pm:queue / priority:p3

落点核实——卡片测的是已发布 dist，本席在平台源码上核对，逐条成立并可收紧

落点：packages/lint/src/validate-dashboard-action-refs.ts（规则 id 常量在 :87 export const DASHBOARD_ACTION_ROUTE_UNRESOLVED = 'dashboard-action-route-unresolved';）。

① 键表 :116-131——十个键，apps 确实不在其中：

const URL_COLLECTION_TO_STACK_KEY: Record<string, 'objects' | 'reports' | 'dashboards' | 'pages' | 'views'> = {
  object: 'objects',   objects: 'objects',
  report: 'reports',   reports: 'reports',
  dashboard: 'dashboards', dashboards: 'dashboards',
  page: 'pages',       pages: 'pages',
  view: 'views',       views: 'views',
};

与卡片从 dist 里读出的表逐键一致。

② 扫描循环 :227-233——本席把卡片的「return at the first recognised collection」收紧成精确语义：

for (let i = 0; i < segments.length - 1; i++) {
  const stackKey = URL_COLLECTION_TO_STACK_KEY[segments[i]];
  if (!stackKey) continue;                              // ← apps / no_such_app 都从这里被跳过
  const name = segments[i + 1];
  if (known[stackKey].has(name)) return undefined;      // resolved
  return { collection: segments[i], name };             // recognized shape, unknown name
}
return null;                                            // 无可识别集合段 —— 不透明路由，跳过

⇒ 三条后果，比卡片写的更细：

• apps 与其后的 app 名都被 :229 的 continue 跳过——不是「没查」，是根本没进入判断；
• 第一个被识别的集合段就决定一切：无论它解析成功（return undefined）还是失败（return {…}），循环立即结束 ⇒ 一个坏 app 名 + 一个好 dashboard 名 = 完全干净，连警告都没有；
• 全路径无可识别集合段（如卡片实测的 /apps/no_such_app_nope/crm_lead）⇒ :235 return null ⇒ 按「不透明路由」跳过。卡片实测的 exit 0 + 零输出，成因正是这一条。

③ 范围内活控制： 在该文件全文搜 apps，除了 :87 的规则 id 常量外零命中——stack.apps 一次都没被读过。控制活着（同一次搜索命中了 dashboard-action-route-unresolved），⇒ 「从不校验 app 段」是读数，不是搜索失效。

⭐ 补一条卡片没提的：档注自己把这一段省略掉了。 :112-115 写：

URL path segments that name a metadata collection, mapped to the stack key whose members can appear after them in an in-app route (/…/objects/crm_lead, /reports/forecast, /dashboards/exec, …)

那个 /…/ 正是被跳过的 apps/NAME 头。档注把它省略成省略号，而不是声明「app 段刻意不校验」——⇒ 这不是一个有意的取舍留下的记录，是一个没被想到的缺口。这条支持卡片「unfiled residue，不是新需求」的定性。

定级理由

• domain:devx：packages/lint 按 lane 表归 domain:devx。

• bug：Flag dead action/route references in dashboard header actions (ADR-0049 for references) #3367 的验收标准之一是 "A url action pointing at a non-existent in-app route is at least warned"，而 app 段是它自己引用的路由形状 /apps/:appName/… 里唯一不可选的一段。已声明的验收标准在 main 上未被满足 ⇒ 有东西是假的。修复不拓宽接受集（拓宽的是检测面）⇒ Bug/tidy 侧，无人工地板。

• p3，不是 p2：

  • 与本轮同批的 lint: validateFormLayout is dead for any view that binds its object through list.data.object — form-field-unknown / form-section-group-unknown / absolute-colspan-discouraged never fire on 14/14 of HotCRM's views (49 form sections) #16168 相比：那张是三条规则在整整一类绑定形状上全灭（14/14 视图、49 个 section、下游 epic 被阻塞）；本张是一条规则漏了一个路径段，且该规则在其它形状上确实在工作（卡片同站点实测 /apps/crm_enterprise/dashboard/no_such_dashboard_nope 正常告警）。覆盖面差一个量级。
  • 触发需要一次app 重命名（或手写错 app 名）。卡片说得对——重命名会让所有 dashboard URL 全部 404 而 lint 全绿，这是真实且静默的；但它是一次性的、可被首次点击立即发现的失败，不像 lint: validateFormLayout is dead for any view that binds its object through list.data.object — form-field-unknown / form-section-group-unknown / absolute-colspan-discouraged never fire on 14/14 of HotCRM's views (49 form sections) #16168 那样让错误内容长期潜伏。
  • ⛔ 不降 p4/无优先级：它是一条已写下的验收标准的欠账，且卡片给出了明确修复方向。

• finding：证据形状与 lint: validateFormLayout is dead for any view that binds its object through list.data.object — form-field-unknown / form-section-group-unknown / absolute-colspan-discouraged never fire on 14/14 of HotCRM's views (49 form sections) #16168 同级，值得同样记名——同文件、同站点、同命令的正负对照（/apps/crm_enterprise/dashboard/no_such_dashboard_nope 触发 vs /apps/no_such_app_nope/crm_lead 静默，输出与干净基线逐字节相同）；第二个独立控制（dashboard-action-target-undefined 在同一 header 上以 error / exit 1 触发，证明这个 dashboard 与这个 header 都不是惰性的）；每次注入在同一次运行内还原，并以 git hash-object 等于 git rev-parse HEAD:PATH 加该路径 git status 为空双重证明。⇒ 符合纪律②与纪律⑮，本席不需要重跑。

去重核实

✅ 卡片的 dedup 带了控制，且诚实地说明了控制的形式：目标查询返回零，同一会话内两次同类查询分别返回 4 条与 5 条切题命中，作为「搜索并非一律答空」的控制。这符合纪律②与纪律⑪。⚠️ 但要精确：这是一个邻域控制（证明搜索在这片区域能返回结果），不是 known-hit 控制（没有一条已知必中的目标被用来验证查询能命中它自己）。⇒ 其「无重复」结论可继承为强证据，但不是穷尽证明——⛔ 本席不把它升格为已穷尽（纪律⑪）。

卡片自查的邻近卡 #3959（modal action 服务端派发）、#4709（app.homePageId 死分支）、#3611（view 路由方言）本席认同均不重复。

修复方向（卡片建议，本席背书并加一条边界）

• 在扫描集合键之前，先把 apps/NAME 头解析到 stack.apps；
• 扫完剩余段而不是首次命中即 return——今天「坏 app 名 + 坏 dashboard 名」只报后者，「坏 app 名」单独一个都不报。

⚠️ 一条本席补的边界： 改成「扫完全部段」会改变现有行为——今天 /dashboards/exec/views/bad_view 这类多集合段路径只报第一段，改后会报两段。这会让今天绿的 lint 变黄。⛔ 不要把它当成纯新增；取卡人应在 changeset 里把这一项单独写明，并确认 hotcrm 等消费方的基线（卡片给的干净基线是 0 errors / 17 warnings / 12 suggestions）变化在预期内。
