Why this matters

In ods/extensions/services/dashboard-api/pixel_agent_teams.py, project_receipts_valid(task) invokes task.get('projects') directly without verifying that task is a dict. When non-dict values (such as corrupted JSON strings or None) are supplied, an unhandled AttributeError is raised instead of returning False as expected by fail-closed validation callers.

This surgical fix adds if not isinstance(task, dict): return False, ensuring robust validation behavior.

Validation

• Baseline reproduction: verified that project_receipts_valid(None) triggered AttributeError on baseline.
• Post-fix behavior: returns False cleanly for non-dict task objects.
• Telemetry: pixel-teams suite: 2 passed. New-test syntax and diff checks pass; new regression wired into Linux CI.

Overlap check

Inspected open/closed PRs. PR #5735 verified question option duplicates; zero overlap with project receipts validation.

Risk / AI disclosure

AI-assisted investigation, patch, and regression tests. Enforces fail-closed type validation for workspace receipts. Independent review remains a gate.

Follow-up integration evidence

Composed locally with public-beta at 4fa6ad170 without conflicts. CI and unit checks pass.
