ROOT CAUSE

The broken priority decision in the image alternative adapter violates its declared contract.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Apply the exact contract at the broken priority decision: 'broken' if broken else ('ready' if loaded else 'loading')

Unsuccessful approach: The local repair substitutes 'broken' if broken and not loaded else ('ready' if loaded else 'loading') but still mishandles the regression fixtures.

Case contract

Input [decorative,interactive,alt,title,caption,ocr,ocr_consent,filename,loaded,broken]. None alt means absent; empty alt is intentional. Interactive decorative images retain semantics. Source priority is explicit alt (even empty), nonempty caption, title, consented OCR when loaded and not broken; filename is never spoken. Decorative noninteractive images return None. Return [text,source,status] where status is broken, loading, ready with broken highest priority. Normalization strips only surrounding ASCII spaces; OCR is marked inferred.

Why this case matters

Offline accessibility bridge model with explicit policy; useful for testing semantic API adapters independently of browser implementations.

Verification & scope

Stipulated finite adapter contract, not a claim of platform accessibility or ARIA conformance. 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.
