FA-54166 / Accessibility interaction semantics / Open access

Resolved comments remain in active annotation queries · case 01

Resolved comments remain in active annotation queries.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 7 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

The resolved filter decision in the annotation ranges adapter violates its declared contract.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Apply the exact contract at the resolved filter decision: resolved or not detail

Unsuccessful approach: The local repair substitutes resolved and not detail but still mishandles the regression fixtures.

Case contract

Input [length,annotations,types] annotations [id,start,end,kind,detail,resolved]. Admit allowed types and unresolved annotations with nonempty detail. Clamp half-open ranges, discard empty or reversed. Preserve overlapping annotations; dedupe same ID by first eligible record. Output sorted by start,end,ID. Return [id,start,end,kind,detail]. Spelling, grammar, comment are the only recognized kinds even if types requests unknown types.

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.
