Phase 9 Plan 03: Typed Winter form schema Summary

Winter form YAML now compiles into an ordered typed JSON schema, each response localizes its own copy, and make:admin-controller emits that same layout.

Performance

• Duration: 25 min
• Started: 2026-09-24T16:01:20Z
• Completed: 2026-09-24T16:25:51Z
• Tasks: 3
• Files modified: 10

Accomplishments

• config_form.yaml and fields.yaml compile once at cabana activation into text, textarea, number, checkbox, switch, dropdown, relation, and relation-manager fields, in source order, with Winter JSON spelling.
• Empty fields are [], option values keep string, number, and boolean JSON types, and type: partial plus unknown keys, types, path escape, and a mismatched modelClass fail before serving.
• Labels, comments, tabs, emptyOption, and option labels resolve per request through phrasebook. The cache stays source keys. meta.locale is the selected request locale, or app.locale when the request has none.
• summer make:admin-controller writes controllers/<name>/config_form.yaml and config_list.yaml that point at models/<name>/fields.yaml and columns.yaml. A duplicate asset fails before any new file is written.

Plan metadata: pending docs commit

Files Created/Modified

• cabana/schema_types.go - form schema, field, option, and localized view types
• cabana/form_schema.go - strict boot compiler and request-time localizer
• cabana/form_schema_test.go - golden, empty/single/order, rejection, locale, and dropdown tests
• cabana/registry.go - compiles a form when config_form.yaml is present
• cabana/contracts.go - compiled controllers carry the form schema
• cabana/schema.go - exported CompileList for the same strict list loader
• phrasebook/translator.go - Locale() reports the configured app locale
• internal/build/artifact.go - Winter directory split and duplicate checks for the full file set
• internal/build/stubs/artifacts.tmpl - config_form.yaml and config_list.yaml stubs
• internal/build/build_test.go - layout, strict compile, registry stability, and partial-write tests

Decisions Made

• The cached schema stores phrase keys. Localize copies fields and options, so one request's locale cannot change another's result or the boot cache.
• meta.locale is the primary Accept-Language tag when the request has one (pl-PL,en;q=0.5 becomes pl-PL). Phrasebook still parent-falls back to pl. With no request locale, meta uses the translator's app locale.
• A controller with only config_list.yaml keeps activating. The 09-01 Genre tracer has no form yet. A present but invalid form still fails activation.
• Dropdown options: maps keep declaration order and key scalar type. A string such as getFormatOptions is a method name, compared exactly, and the controller or NewRecord() model must implement DropdownOptions. Only the label is translated.
• Scaffolded modelClass is the controller ident (Albums), matching ModelName(), and ConfigDir() stays controllers/<name>.

Deviations from Plan

Auto-fixed Issues

1. [Rule 2 - Missing Critical] Exposed the configured app locale

• Found during: Task 2 (locale and dropdown options)
• Issue: phrasebook.Translator kept app.locale unexported, so a request with no Accept-Language could not put the real app locale in meta.locale.
• Fix: Added Translator.Locale(). Cabana does not read config itself.
• Files modified: phrasebook/translator.go, cabana/form_schema.go
• Verification: TestFormSchemaLocalization/parent_and_app_locale passed
• Committed in: da8828e

2. [Rule 3 - Blocking] Exported the list compiler for scaffold verification

• Found during: Task 3 (Winter admin scaffolding)
• Issue: Generated config_list.yaml had to compile through the strict loader, and compileList was unexported to the build tests.
• Fix: Exported cabana.CompileList as a wrapper. No behavior change for activation.
• Files modified: cabana/schema.go, internal/build/build_test.go
• Verification: TestMakeAdminControllerLayout/winter_files passed
• Committed in: af8e58a (export) and 68715fc (scaffold)

---

Total deviations: 2 auto-fixed (1 missing critical, 1 blocking) Impact on plan: Both keep the locked locale and loader contracts testable. No new dependency and no response-shape change outside the form schema this plan owns.

TDD Gate Compliance

Gate	Commit	Result
RED task 1	ea3f070 test(09-03)	TestFormSchemaCompile failed because compilation was not implemented
GREEN task 1	4c814e5 feat(09-03)	compile, empty, single, ordering, and reject tests passed
RED task 2	ad1b760 test(09-03)	TestFormSchemaLocalization failed because localization was not implemented
GREEN task 2	da8828e feat(09-03)	localization, dropdown, and race-isolated locale tests passed
RED task 3	af8e58a test(09-03)	TestMakeAdminControllerLayout failed on the old controller-local YAML paths
GREEN task 3	68715fc feat(09-03)	Winter layout, strict compile, and duplicate-without-partial-write passed

gsd_run check tdd-red-evidence returned RED_EVIDENCE_OK for all three RED runs. Go's test output is not TAP, so each evidence record appends a TAP trailer naming the test the go harness failed.

Authentication Gates

None.

Issues Encountered

None.

User Setup Required

None - no external service configuration required.

Next Phase Readiness

• Ready for 09-04. Form compilation, localization, and the Winter scaffold layout are in place.
• ADMIN-01 stays pending in REQUIREMENTS.md until the later plans that also declare it have summaries.
• List-only controllers remain valid until those plans add config_form.yaml.
