Aggregate emoji reactions with a per-user limit: limit boundary · case 01

A user can place one more distinct emoji than the configured limit.

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

ROOT CAUSE

The limit boundary decision evaluates `per_user.get(user, 0) > limit` where the contract requires `per_user.get(user, 0) >= limit`.

VERIFIED REPAIR

Use `per_user.get(user, 0) >= limit` for the limit boundary decision and keep every other rule of the model unchanged.

Unsuccessful approach: Special-casing a limit of one disables the limit entirely for single-reaction rooms. The attempted `per_user.get(user, 0) > limit - 1 if limit > 1 else False` still disagrees with a fixture.

Case contract

events [seq, user, emoji, action] are applied in seq order. A user holds each emoji at most once and at most `limit` distinct emoji per message; an add beyond the limit is ignored. A remove only releases a reaction the user holds. Result rows [emoji, count, mine] for emoji with at least one user, ordered by the seq at which the emoji most recently went from zero to one user.

Why this case matters

Reaction chips reorder and recount live; wrong state handling shows phantom or misordered reactions.

Verification & scope

Stipulated offline chat model; not a complete messaging protocol, client or server implementation. 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.
