Property batches report requested rather than current revision.

ROOT CAUSE

The revision report decision in the property query batch adapter violates its declared contract.

THE FAILURE

The revision report decision in the property query batch adapter violates its declared contract.

Unsuccessful approach: The local repair substitutes return [min(expected,revision),results] but still mishandles the regression fixtures.

Case contract

Input [objects,queries,revision,expected_revision]. objects map IDs to [alive,properties]; queries [id,property]. Allowed props name,value,description,role; a missing property is unsupported while an existing None is successful null. Results retain query order and duplicates, each [status,value]; status stale for every query when revisions differ, gone for missing/defunct object, unsupported for unknown/absent property, ok otherwise. Empty queries produce empty output. Return [revision,results], actual revision always. Values are returned as JSON-compatible content; object aliasing is outside this query-only model.

Why this case matters

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

HELD IN THE MEMBER ARCHIVE

The verified repair and its recorded checks are member-only.

This mechanism has 7 recorded checks per implementation. The open-access tier publishes the failure and the unsuccessful fix; the repaired source that passes every check, and the observations that prove it, are available to members.

Every case sharing this mechanism uses the same contract and the same repair, so this one record is held back for all of them.

Member access is invitation-based. Sign in with your invited account to inspect the repair.

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.
