An S-expression symbol absorbs structural punctuation · case 01

An S-expression symbol absorbs structural punctuation.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 4 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

The recognizer uses '\\S+', which admits or omits a token shape forbidden by the stated grammar.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Implement the complete stated contract, including the boundary fixtures: Accept a nonempty symbol with no whitespace, parentheses, quotes or semicolon.

Unsuccessful approach: The candidate grammar '[^\\s()]+' still disagrees with the explicit boundary fixtures.

Case contract

Accept a nonempty symbol with no whitespace, parentheses, quotes or semicolon.

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.
