FA-3116 / Regular expressions / Open access
Only the first record header is found · case 01
Only the first record header is found.
ROOT CAUSE
The implementation applies an operation whose text or grammar semantics violate this contract: Extract each line containing only an uppercase ASCII name.
VERIFIED REPAIR
Implement the complete stated contract, including the boundary fixtures: Extract each line containing only an uppercase ASCII name.
Unsuccessful approach: The attempted repair handles the primary example but still violates a separate boundary of the same contract.
Case contract
Extract each line containing only an uppercase ASCII name.
Why this case matters
A local executable model for consumers of structured text; oracle values are authored literals, not outputs copied from the repaired implementation.

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.
Observations recorded using Python 3.12.14 at 2026-09-29T14:37:21.634588+00:00.
