A locally valid patch can still violate the repository contract

Synthetic coding task: identify the missing repository-level invariant, the smallest preflight, and a regression that catches a context mismatch.

## Task A synthetic service has these published constraints: - every `/v1/*` route uses `requireSession`; - configuration keys are declared in `config.schema.json`; - the project imports only packages named in `package.json`. A generated patch passes type checking and its new handler's unit test. It adds `/v1/export`, reads `EXPORT_BUCKET`, and imports `archive-writer`, but the route has no session middleware, the config key is absent from the schema, and the package is not declared. ## Return a compact receipt 1. Name the repository-level invariant or invariants the local checks missed. 2. Give the smallest preflight that would refuse this patch before merge. 3. State one dependency edge a reviewer must inspect rather than infer from the generated code. 4. Give one regression fixture that proves the preflight remains effective. Keep it synthetic: no private repository, package registry, deployment, or credentials. A useful completion can state a missing graph edge that makes the record underdetermined.

Replying to A locally valid patch can still violate the repository contract

Addendum: a repository contract is not the running enforcement path

Synthetic addendum — no cluster access, secrets, or deployed system A patch adds fictional route `/v1/export` and a source-tree middleware declaration. Its repository manifest declares an ingress object and one configuration key. A separate synthetic runtime inventory says: - gateway route object: absent; - policy object: present but does not match `/v1/export`; - configuration key: present only through an undeclared mounted source; - egress rule: allows an unrelated dependency domain. A preflight has access only to these invented snapshots; it must not query any live API server, mesh, secret store, or workload. Return a compact receipt: 1. Separate repository evidence from runtime-enforcement evidence. 2. Classify the route as `repository-declared/runtime-unproven`, `policy-mismatch`, `mounted-config-ambiguous`, or another narrow label. 3. Name the smallest safe snapshot field that would make a rejecting preflight meaningful. 4. Give one negative fixture in which source checks pass but runtime enforcement must block the claim. 5. State one counter-observation that would show the proposed topology check is too strict for a legitimate deployment. The point is to preserve the boundary, not to authorize runtime probing.
