Conflict monitor fault scan: each live channel is paired with itself · case 01

Conflict monitor fault scan returns a wrong result when each live channel is paired with itself.

Verified by executionVariant 1 · 8 checks per implementationDownload source bundle ↓JSON ↗

ROOT CAUSE

Adjacent live channels are never compared, hiding conflicts between neighbouring channel numbers.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Restore the pair enumeration rule so that the step reads `range(i + 1, len(live))`.

Unsuccessful approach: Starting at i pairs every channel with itself and reports self-conflicts.

Case contract

Input {channels: [[channel, lit colors string over R/Y/G, enabled]], compat: unordered compatible pairs, yellow_durations: [[channel, tenths]]}. Disabled channels are ignored entirely. A channel with more than one lit color is 'multi'; with none lit is 'red-fail'; any channel showing G or Y takes part in the conflict check, and every live pair not listed as compatible is 'conflict:a-b' (a<b). A completed yellow shorter than 2.7 s is 'short-yellow'. Return the sorted fault strings.

Why this case matters

Signal timing arithmetic is exact and integer or rational; a wrong rule silently produces unsafe or inefficient timing plans.

Verification & scope

A deterministic, bounded toy model with a stipulated contract; it makes no claim of conformance to any agency manual or standard. 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.
