 # Changelog
 
+## v1.18.26-dev object field TEXT negative validation
+
+- Added a focused negative `claro typecheck` fixture for direct object-field assignment with a TEXT field: `NEW Player player` followed by `SET player.name 123` when the class declares `HAS name TEXT`.
+- Wired the TEXT wrong-type fixture into both the typecheck diagnostics validator and `claro validate`, completing NUMBER/TEXT/YESNO negative coverage for the current narrow direct object-field diagnostic foundation.

 ## v1.18.26-dev object field YESNO negative validation
 
 - Added a focused negative `claro typecheck` fixture for direct object-field assignment with a YESNO field: `NEW Player player` followed by `SET player.ready "yes"` when the class declares `HAS ready YESNO`.

-Both sides of this narrow field foundation are covered by validation: `tests/typecheck_object_field_good.claro` checks that `SET player.score 10` is accepted for a `HAS score NUMBER` field, `tests/typecheck_object_field_text_good.claro` checks that `SET player.name "Ada"` is accepted for a `HAS name TEXT` field, `tests/typecheck_object_field_yesno_good.claro` checks that `SET player.ready YES` is accepted for a `HAS ready YESNO` field, `tests/typecheck_object_field_bad.claro` checks the NUMBER wrong-type diagnostic, and `tests/typecheck_object_field_yesno_bad.claro` checks the YESNO wrong-type diagnostic.

 This slice is intentionally small: it covers direct `NEW Class object` plus `SET object.field value` cases in one file. Broader object flows, aliases, method return checks, and richer object signatures remain future work.
