Fixes #5768

Which branch the measurement chose

The dispatch asked, before anything else: does a write path for the stage field already exist and reach this surface? It does not, and that decided the shape.

record:path's only channel is useRecordContext(). The whole of what that context offers (RecordContextValue, packages/react/src/context/RecordContext.tsx) is objectName / recordId / dataSource / data / objectSchema / refresh / headerSystemActions / isFavorite / onToggleFavorite / embeddedno record-field mutation of any kind. The two write paths that do exist on a record page both terminate elsewhere:

  • inline edit — record:details mounts <InlineEditProvider> + <InlineEditSaveBar>; the save is dataSource.update(..., { ifMatch: data.updated_at }), scoped to that renderer's session (record-details.tsx:63-67);
  • actions — record-quick-actions.tsx goes through useActionEngine's executeAction, with usePermissions gating.

Neither is reachable from this component. Connecting one would mean opening a new write channel plus permission gating, validation and OCC — the medium-appetite feature the maintainer explicitly deferred to its own card. So this PR takes the third branch: the element stops claiming to be a control.

The evidence, re-measured at the live source

The card was measured in a running browser against a shipped build (HotCRM crm_quote; generic record chrome, so every object declaring a stageField has it):

document.querySelectorAll('main [role="listitem"]')   // listitem, not button/tab
getComputedStyle(el).cursor                           // "auto"
el.getAttribute('tabindex')                           // null
el.closest('button,[role=button],[role=tab],a')       // null
// pointerdown → mousedown → pointerup → mouseup → click: status still `draft`

Every one of those readings is correct for a status readout. The accessible semantics were never the defect — role="list" / role="listitem" with no tab stop is what a readout should be, and this PR does not move them. The defect was that the pixels said the opposite: filled, shadowed, equal-width pills — a segmented button group — sitting exactly where a CRM user reaches for the stage control.

What changed

Each stage now renders as a thin decorative rail segment with its label as plain text beneath it, which is the vocabulary app-shell's approval step readout already uses (RecordApprovalsPanel — marker, rail, bare label, weight for "current", never a filled surface).

Gone: per-stage filled pill (rounded-xl + bg-primary/bg-muted surface), shadow-sm, ring-1, the bordered rounded-full chips on the mobile row, and the equal-width tap target.
Unchanged: which stage is current (aria-current="step", plus type weight and an accent rail), the travelled/untravelled distinction, the completed check, the separated lost-terminal group, and every accessible semantic.

Three DOM attributes now carry state that colour used to be the sole carrier of, so the classification is assertable without reading CSS: data-stage-state (completed | current | upcoming), data-stage-terminal (won | lost), data-stage-rail on the decorative indicator.

Not built here: click-to-advance. No handler was added — a no-op handler or a toast would trade a silent false promise for a noisy one.

Verification

All commands below ran at the final commit 292d2f73f, under the shared verify lock, with exit codes captured before any pipe.

Gate verdict lines, each quoted from the gate's own output:

✅  2 source file(s) of 1 released package(s) changed, and this change declares 1 changeset(s): .changeset/inert-lifecycle-path-readout-5768.md.
✅  No changeset declares a `major` bump.
✅  All workspace packages are in the changeset fixed group.
✅  check-control-bytes: OK (scanned 4918 tracked text file(s); skipped 85 binary).

The new suite asserts accessible semantics and structure, never CSS — the test DOM resolves no Tailwind, so getComputedStyle there would answer nothing about what a user sees.

Reverse verification

Both ablations were confirmed on disk by grepping the injected and the removed text (never an editor's exit code), each ran under a trap ... EXIT INT TERM restore, and the direction was predicted before running. No rebuild was needed and none was skipped: the suite imports the subject relatively (../record-path), and its one cross-package import (@object-ui/react) is mapped by the root vitest.config.mts alias table to packages/react/src, so the resolution path never touches any dist/.

ablation predicted observed
remove data-stage-rail from the indicator B4 red, everything else green 1 failed | 8 passed — the failure is B4
inject a <button> into each stage B1 + B2 red 2 failed | 7 passed — the failures are B1 and B2

Restore leg: file byte-identical to the pre-ablation copy (single unique sha256), no ablation residue, suite back to 17 passed (17), and the union above re-run green afterwards.

Legs that do not discriminate this change, named rather than hidden: B1 (no interactive role), B2 (no tab stop), B3 (inert on a full pointer sequence) were already true before this PR — they re-measure the browser's readings at the live source and pin the surface against the wrong repair, i.e. bolting a control onto a surface with no write path behind it. Ablating the styling leaves all three green. B4 is the only discriminating leg: a rail's indicator is a separate, text-free element, while a pill is its own label's surface and cannot have one.

Lint narrowing, declared

The repo-wide scan is CI's run. Locally the whole touched package was linted (eslint . in packages/plugin-detail, exit 0), and the narrowing to that package excludes nothing relevant, on three pieces of evidence:

  1. Universe read from eslint's own config, not guessedeslint --format json on the changed paths reports which it actually linted; the changeset .md came back flagged as ignored by config, both source files as linted.
  2. Count read from --format json — 3 paths submitted, 3 reported, 0 errors.
  3. Invariance for untouched fileseslint.config.js declares no projectService and no parserOptions.project (0 matches), so no type-aware program exists and a file's verdict depends only on that file plus the shared config. This diff therefore cannot move the verdict of any file it does not touch.

Warning parity was held deliberately: baseline record-path.tsx linted 0 errors / 15 warnings; the rewrite first came in at 16, and the one added no-explicit-any was removed (renderStage only ever reads stage.label), returning it to 0 / 15.

Out of scope, filed separately

While in the file I measured a distinct accessibility defect and did not fold it in: travelled / upcoming / lost stages are distinguished by colour alone, because the ✓ and ✗ glyphs are aria-hidden, so the state never reaches the accessible name (WCAG 2.2 SC 1.4.1). Pre-existing, and a proper repair needs new user-facing strings and i18n keys. Filed unassigned as #5916.

…mented control

The record page drew the object's lifecycle from the `stageField` role as
filled, shadowed, equal-width pills — a segmented button group sitting where a
CRM user reaches for the stage control — with nothing behind it. Measured in a
browser on a shipped build: `role="listitem"`, `cursor: auto`, `tabindex` null,
no ancestor button/tab/a, and a full pointer sequence left the record's status
untouched.

No write path reaches this renderer: its only channel is `useRecordContext()`,
whose value carries `data` / `refresh` / `headerSystemActions` /
`onToggleFavorite` and no record-field mutation. Editing runs through
`record:details`' InlineEditProvider + InlineEditSaveBar or an action via
`useActionEngine`; neither is reachable here.

So the visual promise is withdrawn rather than honoured. Each stage renders as
a thin decorative rail segment with its label as plain text beneath — the
vocabulary app-shell's approval step readout already uses. Removed: per-stage
filled pill, shadow, ring, bordered chip, equal-width tap target. Unchanged:
which stage is current, the travelled/untravelled distinction, the completed
check, the separated lost-terminal group, and the accessible semantics
(role="list"/"listitem", no tab stop) which were already correct for a readout.

`data-stage-state` / `data-stage-terminal` / `data-stage-rail` carry the state
colour used to be the only carrier of, so the classification is assertable
without reading CSS.

Click-to-advance is deliberately not built here; it is a separate feature with
its own appetite.
