A data value retains a structural slash · case 01
A data value retains a structural slash.
ROOT CAUSE
The implementation applies an operation whose text or grammar semantics violate this contract: Percent-encode a component using UTF-8 with no safe reserved characters.
VERIFIED REPAIR
Implement the complete stated contract, including the boundary fixtures: Percent-encode a component using UTF-8 with no safe reserved characters.
Unsuccessful approach: The attempted repair handles the primary example but still violates a separate boundary of the same contract.
Case contract
Percent-encode a component using UTF-8 with no safe reserved characters.
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.
