ROOT CAUSE

The partial-cache-record-trailing-record-data decision uses wire=x if len(wire)<10 or any(not 0<=b<=255 for b in wire): return None if wire[:2]!=[82,71]: return None if wire[2]!=1: return None if wire[3]!=0: return None if sum(wire[:-1])%256!=wire[-1]: return None generation=wire[4]256+wire[5] total=wire[6]256+wire[7] count=wire[8] pos=9 parts=[] owned=set() for _ in range(count): if pos+3>len(wire)-1: return None offset=wire[pos]*256+wire[pos+1] size=wire[pos+2] pos+=3 if pos+size>len(wire)-1 or offset+size>total: return None if any(i in owned for i in range(offset,offset+size)): return None owned.update(range(offset,offset+size)) parts.append([offset,''.join(chr(b) for b in wire[pos:pos+size])]) pos+=size if pos>len(wire)-1: return None return [generation,total,parts].

VERIFIED REPAIR

Apply the bounded decision exactly: wire=x if len(wire)<10 or any(not 0<=b<=255 for b in wire): return None if wire[:2]!=[82,71]: return None if wire[2]!=1: return None if wire[3]!=0: return None if sum(wire[:-1])%256!=wire[-1]: return None generation=wire[4]*256+wire[5] total=wire[6]*256+wire[7] count=wire[8] pos=9 parts=[] owned=set() for _ in range(count): if pos+3>len(wire)-1: return None offset=wire[pos]*256+wire[pos+1] size=wire[pos+2] pos+=3 if pos+size>len(wire)-1 or offset+size>total: return None if any(i in owned for i in range(offset,offset+size)): return None owned.update(range(offset,offset+size)) parts.append([offset,''.join(chr(b) for b in wire[pos:pos+size])]) pos+=size if pos!=len(wire)-1: return None return [generation,total,parts]

Unsuccessful approach: The partial repair uses wire=x if len(wire)<10 or any(not 0<=b<=255 for b in wire): return None if wire[:2]!=[82,71]: return None if wire[2]!=1: return None if wire[3]!=0: return None if sum(wire[:-1])%256!=wire[-1]: return None generation=wire[4]*256+wire[5] total=wire[6]*256+wire[7] count=wire[8] pos=9 parts=[] owned=set() for _ in range(count): if pos+3>len(wire)-1: return None offset=wire[pos]*256+wire[pos+1] size=wire[pos+2] pos+=3 if pos+size>len(wire)-1 or offset+size>total: return None if any(i in owned for i in range(offset,offset+size)): return None owned.update(range(offset,offset+size)) parts.append([offset,''.join(chr(b) for b in wire[pos:pos+size])]) pos+=size if pos!=len(wire)-1 and count>0: return None return [generation,total,parts], which still violates the stated contract.

Case contract

Decode this stipulated local binary cache envelope: magic RG, version1, flags0, two-byte big-endian generation, two-byte big-endian complete length, one-byte fragment count, then fragments [two-byte big-endian offset,one-byte count,ASCII payload], followed by one checksum byte equal to sum of preceding bytes modulo256. Reject malformed envelopes, bytes outside0..255, trailing bytes, overlapping fragment ownership, or spans outside complete length. Return [generation,total,[[offset,payload],...]]. This is an invented bounded persistence format, not a public protocol.

Why this case matters

Range responses combine representation identity, conditional requests, framing, and partial-object state.

Verification & scope

Deterministic simplified range service, with stipulated local policies and already parsed trusted inputs; not a complete HTTP implementation. 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.
