Proxy instructions: manual control handoff · case 01

Proxy and present owner both submit after control handoff.

ROOT CAUSE

Proxy and present owner both submit after control handoff.

VERIFIED REPAIR

For manual control handoff, apply the stipulated decision x["enabled"] and not x["owner_present"].

Unsuccessful approach: The attempted repair uses not x["owner_present"]; the explicit regression cases demonstrate that this still violates the stipulated auction rule.

Case contract

A bidder authorizes a bounded proxy to submit offers for a specific lot. A proxy instruction specifies a price ceiling, per-step increment, remaining quantity, owner consent and a one-use trigger token. Outputs are actionable submissions, not an optimal bidding strategy. Named decision manual-control-handoff: For manual control handoff, apply the stipulated decision x["enabled"] and not x["owner_present"].

Verification & scope

Stipulated toy auction rules, not a venue specification, financial advice, optimization claim, or live trading implementation. Nonnegative integer inputs and internally aligned list fields only. 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.
