feat(data): an accepted offer on every hired application; seed-count docs read 818

[claude]

Closes #53
Closes #61

The state machine reaches hired only from offer (DESIGN.md §02) and F3 writes the offer row, so a hired application without an offer is a history the app cannot produce — yet on origin/main 0ad34d7 all 14 seeded ats_offer rows sit on offer-stage applications and none of the 9 hired ones has one. This PR gives each hired application one accepted offer, in both locale packs through scopeToDemo(), and moves every seed-count statement to what a boot now logs (818). #61 is folded in: AGENTS.md and the src/data/index.ts comment still said 801 / 794.

Sizing decision: 14 → 23, not a re-balance

Every offer-stage application needs its offer for the same state-machine reason the hired ones do (F3 produced it), so the 14 existing rows cannot be redistributed; a re-balance inside 14 would mean moving applications between stages, which moves the 88 / 46 / 28 / 14 / 9 funnel that the release screenshots and docs/screenshots/README.md show. Adding 9 rows keeps every application count where it was — verified below, not assumed.

What changed

File	Change
src/data/shared/pipeline.ts	OfferStatus gains accepted; 9 accepted rows on a000 a053 a056 a060 a099 a100 a121 a163 a164 (the nine hired applications), table kept sorted by application index; the header invariant rewritten to what is now true (23 · 14 on offer-stage + one accepted per hired)
src/data/shared/build.ts	buildOffers: accepted rows carry approved_by (they passed approval); start_date / expires_at go through a signed dayOffset (daysFromNow(n) or daysAgo(-n)) because an offer accepted 33 days ago has a start date and an expiry already in the past
src/data/demo-en/offer.seed.ts · src/data/demo-zh/offer.seed.ts	seed comments 14 → 23
src/data/index.ts	794 → 811 ATS/identity rows (+ 7 logins = 818) — #61
AGENTS.md	801 → 818, twice — #61
README.md	809 → 818 in the three seed-size statements; the isolation sentence: Quillstone 2 → 3 offers, Harborline 5 / 31 / 2 / 3 / 2 → 5 / 31 / 4 / 3 / 2
DESIGN.md §06	ats_offer row 14 → 23 (14 on offer-stage applications, 3 pending_approval · 9 accepted, one per hired application) — §06 only, §01–§03 untouched
docs/screenshots/README.md	one paragraph: the seed grew 809 → 818 by offers only; no shot reads ats_offer; the photographed stage counts did not move
CONTRIBUTING.md	the example measured claim reads 3 offers so it stays a true sentence

Not touched (⛔ per the card): src/security/, src/objects/, src/hooks/, src/flows/, src/views/, src/apps/, src/dashboards/, src/datasets/. No new label, option or field, so --i18n-strict had nothing new to check. No dependency change.

Platform personas read 23 here because this is the memory driver; on sqlite ats_offer reads 0 to them (#39, expected, not touched).

Employer dashboard (ats_employer_hiring) before / after — unchanged, as it must be

None of its four widgets reads ats_offer (job, application, interview datasets only), so the numbers cannot move; measured anyway, both employer personas, POST /api/v1/analytics/dataset/query with the widget's own filter as selection.runtimeFilter, cross-checked against a REST $filter count (compiled SQL in the probe output shows the filter and the row-level scope both applied):

persona	open_jobs	awaiting_action	interviews_this_week	pipeline_by_stage (applied/screening/interview/offer/hired/rejected)
Quillstone · before	3	18	6	10 / 8 / 5 / 2 / 1 / 1
Quillstone · after	3	18	6	10 / 8 / 5 / 2 / 1 / 1
Harborline · before	3	21	1	14 / 7 / 3 / 2 / 2 / 3
Harborline · after	3	21	1	14 / 7 / 3 / 2 / 2 / 3

REST cross-check column agreed with every analytics number in both runs. (Measurement note for whoever probes this next: a filter placed at body.filter, selection.filter, filters or where is accepted with HTTP 200 and silently ignored — the compiled SQL carries only the row-level scope, and Quillstone's open_jobs reads 5; the key the analytics service reads is selection.runtimeFilter. The Console uses that key, which is why the screenshots show 3 / 18 / 6.)

Doc consistency — every seed-count statement now agrees

Where	Before	After
boot banner (demo-seed-gate.ts, computed)	17 datasets, 809 rows, 7 demo logins	17 datasets, 818 rows, 7 demo logins

Screenshots — still valid, by count

Stage counts did not move: 88 / 46 / 28 / 14 / 9 marketplace-wide (artifact and the funnel dataset both), Quillstone 10 / 8 / 5 / 2 / 1 (+1 rejected) on the kanban and the Hiring Overview bar. Platform Overview reads employers / jobs / applications / candidates — none changed. The interview calendar reads ats_interview (40, unchanged); Find Jobs reads ats_job (22 published, unchanged). No shot reads ats_offer, so none was reshot.

Left as found, on purpose

• src/dashboards/employer-hiring.dashboard.ts — its comment's third bullet ("the demo seed has no offer on any hired application (its 14 offers all sit on offer-stage applications)") is now false, but src/dashboards/ is on this card's ⛔ list and Time-to-offer on the employer dashboard: stamp the duration on ats_application, seed offers for hired applications, and correct §04's wording #55 — which builds that very tile and lists "Demo seed: no ats_offer row belongs to a hired application — all 14 offers sit on offer-stage applications, so "days to offer for hired applications" is unmeasurable on the seed #53's seed fix" inside its own scope — will rewrite the block. After this merges, Time-to-offer on the employer dashboard: stamp the duration on ats_application, seed offers for hired applications, and correct §04's wording #55's scope bullet on seeding offers is already done and its body item 4 is stale; flagged in the dev-report rather than edited here.
• docs/evidence/issue-8/* and docs/backlog/10-seed-data.md still say 14 offers / 809 rows: dated measurement records and the original card, not living statements.
• Application a106 stays at stage offer with a declined offer — a legitimate transient (employer deciding whether to counter), pre-existing, not a state the machine forbids; noted, not changed.

Review — verified independently, then extended by one commit

Re-measured from a clean worktree at 54a442c, not from the report. Everything the PR claims held. One follow-up commit added (b209975, below).

The core claim, from the artifact I built myself

npx objectstack build, then joined ats_offer.application → ats_application.display_name in dist/objectstack.json:

Check	Result
hired applications	9
hired with exactly one accepted offer	9 of 9
hired with no offer	none
accepted offers on a non-hired application	none
non-accepted offers not on an offer-stage application	none
applications carrying more than one offer	none
duplicate offer display_name	none
offers whose application does not resolve	0
stage counts	applied 88 · screening 46 · interview 28 · offer 14 · hired 9 · rejected 15
total seed rows	818 (= 811 + the 7 sys_account logins, matching src/data/index.ts)

The invariant is now two-sided and both sides hold: every hired application has an accepted offer, and no accepted offer sits anywhere else.

The locale packs are not asserted-equal, they were both built

OS_SEED_LOCALE=zh npx objectstack build and the same join: 818 rows, 23 offers (accepted 9 · sent 5 · approved 3 · pending_approval 3 · draft 2 · declined 1), same stage counts, 9 of 9 hired with exactly one accepted offer, approved_by drawn from six different employer admins. scopeToDemo() carries the change through both packs, as claimed.

Dates — checked for coherence, not just for presence

An accepted offer whose expiry is in the past is only defensible if it expired after the acceptance. Resolving every CEL offset against its application's last_activity_at (the hire date):

• no accepted offer has expires_at earlier than the hire date — the offer never expired before it was accepted;
• no accepted offer has start_date earlier than the hire date;
• every accepted offer carries approved_by, and no draft/pending_approval offer does;
• the nine // hired N days ago comments each match that row's activityDaysAgo exactly.

So the negative offsets are a story the state machine can produce, not an artifact of arithmetic.

Runtime, on a boot of my own (memory driver, port 4501)

INFO [ats] demo seed enabled: … loading 17 datasets, 818 rows, 7 demo logins
INFO [Seeder] Seed loading complete {"inserted":818,"updated":0,"skipped":0,"errored":0}

errored: 0 is the load-bearing line here: ats_offer carries a state_machine validation in which accepted is terminal, so a seed inserting at accepted was the one thing the artifact could not rule out. It inserts.

Through REST, per persona ($count=true, and I asserted hasMore == false and len(records) == total before counting — the earlier draft of this probe read the envelope wrong and reported 0 rows against a correct total):

persona	ats_offer	by status
admin@platform.example	23	accepted 9 · sent 5 · approved 3 · pending_approval 3 · draft 2 · declined 1
admin@quillstone.example	3	accepted 1 · pending_approval 1 · sent 1
admin@harborline.example	4	accepted 2 · approved 1 · draft 1
candidate01@mail.example	1	accepted 1 (her own)

Quillstone 5 / 27 / 3 / 3 / 2 and Harborline 5 / 31 / 4 / 3 / 2 — the README isolation sentence this PR rewrote is true as written. Each accepted offer's approved_by is that employer's own admin (usr_ats_harborline_admin for the Harborline rows, usr_ats_summitridge_admin for Summitridge, and so on) and its employer_org matches — the new rows did not cross a tenancy boundary.

The hired ⟷ offer join re-run through RLS rather than over the artifact gives the same 9 of 9, with 0 unresolved lookups.

The screenshots claim — checked at the source, not by eye

grep -rn offer src/datasets/ returns nothing: no dataset reads ats_offer, so no widget number can move regardless of how many offer rows exist. Combined with the unchanged stage counts, the release shots stay valid without a reshoot. That is a stronger argument than the PR body's, and it happens to agree with it.

One thing the PR left false — fixed in b209975

src/dashboards/employer-hiring.dashboard.ts justified omitting the "median days to offer" tile partly on this bullet:

the demo seed has no offer on any hired application (its 14 offers all sit on offer-stage applications), so the tile would read empty anyway

This PR disproves that sentence. It was correctly left alone by the implementing agent — src/dashboards/ was on the card's ⛔ list and #55 owns that block — but "a later card will fix it" is not a reason to merge a false statement into living source, and the bullet is a justification, not a dated measurement. Rewritten to say the tile now stays out for the two reasons that still hold (no median measure in the semantic layer; the duration needs a stored column), not for want of data. Comment only; pnpm validate && pnpm lint && pnpm typecheck all exit 0 on b209975.

docs/evidence/issue-8/* and docs/backlog/10-seed-data.md keep their 14 / 809 — those are dated records of a measurement, and rewriting them would be the actual error.

Not verified, and saying so

I did not open the Console; the check here is REST and artifact only. Nothing in the change is UI-shaped, and no dashboard reads the object, so I judged a browser pass unnecessary rather than done.

Merging. #55 is unblocked by this, and its "seed an offer on hired applications" scope bullet is now already done — I will trim that card rather than let it re-do the work.
