Accept a proposal value: An accept request bypasses the bounded value envelope · case 05

The acceptor accept operation is admitted even though an accept request bypasses the bounded value envelope.

Case contract

Return a Boolean admission decision for accept a proposal value. The record r must satisfy all of: tuple(r['ballot_promised'][0]) >= tuple(r['ballot_promised'][1]); r['ballot_value_unique'][0] is None or r['ballot_value_unique'][0] == r['ballot_value_unique'][1]; r['slot_untrimmed'][0] > r['slot_untrimmed'][1]; len(r['value_length'][0]) <= r['value_length'][1]; r['accept_persisted'] is True. Extra tracing fields are ignored; validation does not mutate the record.

Why this case matters

A deterministic local contract for consensus. Each negative fixture violates exactly one invariant. No transport timing, persistence, cryptographic verification, or full protocol implementation is claimed.

One recorded failure

Sample boundary fixture

This sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
