Pull request overview
This PR implements the core ObjectUI component suite including an expression evaluator, action runner system, React hooks, and 7 new field widgets, along with CRM integration demonstrating these features.
Changes:
- Implemented expression evaluation engine with template parsing (
${data.field}) and security sanitization - Created action execution system for declarative UI interactions (navigation, API calls, confirmations)
- Added 7 production field widgets: EmailField, PhoneField, UrlField, CurrencyField, TextAreaField, RichTextField, LookupField
- Integrated widgets into CRM app with opportunity detail page demonstrating all features

The existing documentation at content/docs/guide/expressions.md references APIs that are not implemented in the new ExpressionEvaluator class:
getExpressionEvaluator()function (doesn't exist, should usenew ExpressionEvaluator())registerFunction()method (not implemented)registerOperator()method (not implemented)- Custom function support in expressions like
formatCurrency(price)(not supported) - Custom operators like
contains(not supported)
Either:
- Implement these missing features to match the documentation, OR
- Update the documentation to reflect the actual API
Without alignment between docs and code, users will be confused and the API will appear incomplete.

| const updateContext = useCallback( | ||
| (newContext: Partial<ActionContext>) => { | ||
| runner.updateContext(newContext); | ||
| }, | ||
| [runner] | ||
| ); |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
The updateContext function updates the runner's internal context, but since the runner object is memoized based on JSON.stringify(context), updating the context won't trigger a re-memoization of the runner. This creates a stale closure issue where the original context is preserved in the memoized runner.
This means calling updateContext may not work as expected because:
- The runner was created with the original context
- The dependency array won't detect the internal mutation
- Future calls to
executemight use stale or mixed context data
Consider either:
- Making the runner a stable reference and not memoizing it
- Exposing context as a separate dependency
- Documenting that updateContext should trigger a state change that re-creates the hook

The option buttons in the lookup dialog lack proper accessibility attributes for keyboard navigation and screen reader support:
- Missing role attributes: The options list should have
role="listbox"and each option should haverole="option" - Missing aria-selected: Options should have
aria-selected={isSelected}to indicate selection state - No keyboard navigation: Users cannot navigate options using arrow keys, which is standard for listbox patterns
- Missing aria-activedescendant: The search input should manage focus using aria-activedescendant pattern
According to WCAG 2.1 and ARIA practices, interactive lists should support:
- Arrow key navigation (Up/Down)
- Home/End keys to jump to first/last option
- Type-ahead search
- Enter/Space to select
- Escape to close
Consider implementing the ARIA Listbox pattern or using a library component that has these features built-in.

| result.reload = action.reload !== false; | ||
| result.close = action.close !== false; |
There was a problem hiding this comment.
The default behavior for reload and close is set to true when they are not explicitly set to false. This means:
action.reload !== false→reload: true(default)action.close !== false→close: true(default)
This creates unexpected behavior where every action will reload and close by default, even if the developer didn't intend it. For example, a simple API call will automatically reload the page and close any dialog/modal unless explicitly prevented.
This is counterintuitive and could lead to bugs. Most actions should NOT reload/close by default. Consider changing to:
result.reload = action.reload === true;result.close = action.close === true;
Or at minimum, document this behavior clearly so developers are aware they need to set reload: false and close: false explicitly.

The ActionRunner class lacks test coverage. While the ExpressionEvaluator has tests, the ActionRunner which depends on it and handles critical functionality like navigation, API calls, and confirmation dialogs is not tested.
Missing test coverage includes:
- Action execution flow (condition checking, confirmation, API calls, navigation)
- URL validation and security checks
- Error handling for failed API calls
- Success/failure result handling
- The default reload/close behavior
- Context updates through
updateContext
Given that this class handles security-critical operations (URL validation, external navigation) and the repository has comprehensive test coverage for other components, tests should be added.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Using JSON.stringify(context) as a dependency in useMemo can cause performance issues and unnecessary re-renders. This approach has several problems:
- Objects with the same values will stringify to different strings if properties are in different orders
- JSON.stringify is an expensive operation that runs on every render
- Circular references will throw errors
- Functions and other non-serializable values will be silently dropped
Instead, consider using a deep equality check library or implementing a custom comparison function. Alternatively, require callers to memoize the context object, or use individual primitive dependencies when possible.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
The security sanitization in isDangerous can be bypassed using various techniques:
- String concatenation:
['cons'+'tructor']orthis['cons'+'tructor'] - Bracket notation:
this['constructor']bypasses theconstructor(pattern - Template literals: Can be used to obfuscate dangerous patterns
- Indirect access:
Object.getPrototypeOf(this).constructoror({}).constructor.constructor('alert(1)')() - Array methods:
[].constructor.constructor('alert(1)')()
The current regex patterns only catch direct function call syntax like constructor(, but don't catch property access like this.constructor or [].constructor.
Additionally, the use of new Function() itself (line 148) is inherently dangerous even with sanitization. As noted in the comment, consider migrating to a safe expression evaluation library like expr-eval or implementing a proper parser that doesn't use Function constructor at all.

The URL validation only checks for http:// and https:// prefixes, but doesn't handle relative URLs which are common in web applications. Relative URLs like /dashboard, ./page, or ../parent are legitimate and should be allowed for internal navigation.
Additionally, the current validation will incorrectly reject:
- Protocol-relative URLs:
//example.com/path - Anchor links:
#section - Mailto links (if needed):
mailto:user@example.com
Consider expanding the validation to allow relative URLs, or clarifying in documentation that this field is only for absolute HTTP(S) URLs.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
The currency symbol logic assumes USD uses '$', but many other currencies might be passed. For currency codes other than USD, it displays the 3-letter code (e.g., 'EUR', 'GBP') instead of their respective symbols (€, £).
While the Intl.NumberFormat will correctly format the readonly display with proper symbols, the editable input field will show inconsistent prefixes:
- USD: Shows '$' symbol (correct)
- EUR: Shows 'EUR' text (should show '€')
- GBP: Shows 'GBP' text (should show '£')
Consider using Intl.NumberFormat to get the proper currency symbol for any currency code, or document that only USD is fully supported for the editable mode.

The newly added React hooks useExpression and useActionRunner lack test coverage. The repository has comprehensive test coverage for other packages (components, core, plugins), but these critical hooks that will be used throughout the application are not tested.
Missing test coverage includes:
- Hook state management and re-rendering behavior
- Proper cleanup and memory leak prevention
- Edge cases (null/undefined inputs, empty context, circular references)
- Error handling paths
- The stale closure issue with
updateContext
Given the critical nature of these hooks in the architecture and the existing testing patterns in the repository, tests should be added before merging.
