Distribution budget enforcement: Mandatory package files may be absent · case 01

Mandatory package files may be absent.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 7 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

The implementation substitutes False for not set(required) <= {name for name, size in files}, so mandatory package files may be absent.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Require every declared mandatory file.

Unsuccessful approach: The attempted repair substitutes not set(required) < {name for name, size in files}. Fixture 1 still yields ['required'] instead of [].

Case contract

Report file-count, total-size, per-file-size, prohibited-extension, and missing-required-file violations in that order. Limits are inclusive. Files are name-size pairs.

Why this case matters

An offline model of distribution budget enforcement, suitable for testing build and release tooling without external services.

Verification & scope

This reproducer isolates one failure mechanism. Results cover the supplied fixtures. Variants within a family share a test contract and should remain grouped when constructing evaluation splits. Related mechanisms with a shared evaluation_group must also remain together; these controlled models are not independent production incidents.
