Move a poison message to a dead-letter queue: Dead-letter transfer loses the original message identity · case 05
The queue dead letter operation is admitted even though dead-letter transfer loses the original message identity.
Case contract
Return a Boolean admission decision for move a poison message to a dead-letter queue. The record r must satisfy all of: r['attempt_threshold'][0] >= r['attempt_threshold'][1]; r['destination_exists'] is True; r['transfer_persisted'] is True; r['cycle_detection'][0] not in r['cycle_detection'][1]; r['original_identity'][0] == r['original_identity'][1]. Extra tracing fields are ignored; validation does not mutate the record.
Why this case matters
A deterministic local contract for queues. Each negative fixture violates exactly one invariant. No transport timing, persistence, cryptographic verification, or full protocol implementation is claimed.
One recorded failure
Sample boundary fixtureThis sample comes from the broken implementation of a controlled reproducer.
| Boundary fixture | Actual | Expected | Outcome |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dead-letter transfer loses the original message identity | true | false | Failed |
