Award installments: disputed tranche hold · case 01

One disputed installment freezes the wrong proceeds.

ROOT CAUSE

One disputed installment freezes the wrong proceeds.

VERIFIED REPAIR

For disputed tranche hold, apply the stipulated decision sum(a for i,a in enumerate(x["amounts"]) if i in x["disputed"]).

Unsuccessful approach: The attempted repair uses sum(a for i,a in enumerate(x["amounts"]) if i not in x["disputed"]); the explicit regression cases demonstrate that this still violates the stipulated auction rule.

Case contract

A toy award permits staged integer-credit installments. Due amounts are a schedule; paid credits are allocated to earlier due installments first. Delivery release depends on the contractual delivery tranche and disputed tranches remain held. No interest or real payment processing is modeled. Named decision disputed-tranche-hold: For disputed tranche hold, apply the stipulated decision sum(a for i,a in enumerate(x["amounts"]) if i in x["disputed"]).

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.
