FA-13256 / Numerical aggregation / Open access
Positive run block summary: The suffix scan starts at the left edge. · case 01
The reduction disagrees with its explicit aggregation oracle.
ROOT CAUSE
The suffix scan starts at the left edge.
VERIFIED REPAIR
Preserve the positive run block summary contract at the identified reduction decision.
Unsuccessful approach: Sorting values destroys their suffix positions.
Case contract
Return [item count, positive prefix length, positive suffix length, longest strictly positive contiguous run] over ordered integer blocks. Empty blocks are identity, zero breaks a run.
Why this case matters
Exact bounded examples isolate a reduction defect without floating-point or external-service effects.

Verification & scope
Small offline integer/rational inputs only; no performance, statistical inference, or production-library conformance claim. 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.
