fix(checker): close the remaining 0.10.0 false positives (#372, #377, #457) - #459
Conversation
…jections RY105 dead-guard claims rest on Length::One facts that were unsound for three shapes (#377): - file.path() was stubbed with return length 1; it recycles like paste, so a vector or empty component propagates. The stub now declares longest_arg. - seq_len(n) was stubbed as arg0, mirroring the argument's vector length; the result length is the *value* of n. New JsonLength::Arg0Value ("arg0_value") evaluates a literal count and stays unknown otherwise, so seq_len(nrow(df)) no longer claims length 1. - x[1] on a possibly-empty list claimed the index length; atomic bases NA-pad but list bases do not (list()[1] is empty), so the projection length stays unknown for Zero/Unknown-length list bases. Fixtures: learnr/pkgload file.path shapes, brulee seq_len shape, themis list-projection shapes, and the retained all-literal file.path dead guard.
RY032's `length(x) == 1 && ...` exclusion required `length` to strictly resolve to base, which never holds inside a package (the package search path shadows base before lookup falls through), leaving the exclusion dead code in package mode and warning on 46 corpus guards. The exclusion now uses lenient base resolution and, per the requirements recorded in docs/scalar-guards.md, proves the guard before honoring it: - a known nonempty class on the guarded parameter refuses the exclusion (a length.<class> method can report a length that is not the storage length); - an unknown class — the usual parameter case — refuses it while the project registers, defines, or imports any length.* S3 method; - a reassignment anywhere in the guarded operand refuses it. The disguised-length case from the docs now warns as it should, and the shadowed/parameter/qualified `length` toggles keep their behavior. Package-mode fixtures pin the four toggles from the issue; script-mode fixtures pin the new refusals.
…t mask (#457) Follow-up to #369/#455: inside the light table `[` mask, only Function-mode lexical bindings were demoted by the columns-first sentinel, so a lexical value binding still typed eagerly in `dat[month == "a"]` and could emit spurious RY033/RY030 against the column that shadows it at runtime. The value-binding analogue now demotes too, gated on the env snapshot the mask machinery already takes: only bindings that existed when the mask was created demote. Callback formals, j-argument names, and the mask pronouns are bound inside the masked expression and keep their typing, and names overlaid as known columns keep the overlaid column type. The callback-formal boundary is pinned by a fixture beside the issue's repro.
…ndaries - scalar-guards.md: the package-mode equality-guard row now describes the honored-guard conditions and the residual search-path method risk; #351 remains the open flow work. - CHANGELOG: three Fixed entries under 0.10.0; the stale #372 reference in the scalar-guard bullet becomes #351-only. - rustfmt pass over the new checker code.
Hermetic reruns of both manifests against the fixed checker remove 16 reviewed false-positive identities and add none: - tidyverse (32 packages): RY032 11 -> 7. cli R/rules.R:180:14, scales R/colour-mapping.R:397:7 and :410:5, testthat R/utils.R:33:21 — all `length(x) == 1 && <use of x>` package-mode guards now honored (#372). The four identities were never ledger findings (cli/scales/testthat have no packages block), so only source_sha256 and ry_commit move. - posit (62 packages): 440 -> 428 findings, all twelve removed identities false_positive/manual-audit — eleven RY032 guard sites (cli, gt x5, leaflet x3, usethis) plus blogdown RY105 R/hugo.R:380:9 and learnr RY105 R/run.R:290:7, the file.path dead-guard false claims (#377). posit-messages-0.9.json prunes the same twelve; source_sha256 recomputed over the regenerated posit.*.root.txt set; ry_commit points at the checker commit. Both --check gates, drift detection, manifest isolation, and the reconciliation gating tests pass locally.

Important
Two issues should be resolved before this merges and 0.10.0 is tagged: the list-projection half of #377 rests on a factually wrong R-semantics claim (list()[1] is length 1 in R, not 0 — evidence inline), and the posit ledger's source_sha256 was not recomputed after the posit reports were edited. Two minor suggestions inline as well.
Reviewed changes
- RY105 length facts (#377):
file.path()'s stub now declareslongest_argrecycling;seq_len(n)gets a newarg0_valuestub spec that pins the result length only from literal counts (seq_len(nrow(df))no longer claims length 1); possibly-empty list projections stop claiming the index length — this last piece is based on an incorrect R-semantics premise (inline). - Package-mode length guards (#372): the
length(x) == 1L && …exclusion switches to lenient base resolution (the strict variant was dead code inside packages) and gains two soundness refusals — provably classed parameters or any project-registered/defined/importedlength.*S3 method, plus reassignment inside the guarded operand. Theproject_defines_length_methodsweep sees the project-wide mergedfn_table, so cross-file definitions are covered; the default-parameter corner is flagged inline. - data.table mask value shadowing (#457): lexical value bindings demote to unknown under a columns-first table
[mask when they existed at mask creation and are not overlaid as known columns. Verified against the sentinel machinery innse.rs— env snapshots come only from the pre-mask scope, so callback formals,jnames, and mask pronouns keep their typing; this looks sound. - Fixtures: new package-mode integration suite (
scalar_guard_packages.rs, 5 tests), RY105 recall fixtures, and mask tests — all run green locally; two of them pin the wrong R behavior (inline). - Corpus reconciliation: both ledgers regenerated with pure removals and zero added findings — tidyverse RY032 11→7, posit 440→428 (twelve reviewed FP identities, messages ledger pruned identically, SUMMARY counts consistent). The posit provenance digest is stale (inline).
openai-compatible/glm-5.3 | 𝕏
Review follow-ups from #459 (pullfrog + CodeRabbit): - Revert the list-projection length change: R pads `[` selections for every vector mode, lists included — `list()[1]` is `list(NULL)`, length 1, the same semantics the 0.9.1 screen pinned on #377. The themis shapes are re-dispositioned: the atomic binding form is pinned as a true positive, list bindings stay silent through the atomic-mode admission rather than an unsound length claim. - file.path zero-argument semantics: ?file.path returns an empty character vector when any argument has zero length, unlike paste. New longest_arg_or_zero stub spec propagates Zero instead of dropping it, so the binding-form dead-guard claim cannot fire on empty paths. - Defaulted parameters are no longer treated as proven unclassed (a default describes only the omitted-argument call shape); they route through the project length.* check. Also fixes the arm ordering bug this introduced in passing, where defaulted-unclassed parameters hit the known-classed refusal outright and re-flagged two audited gt guards. - posit ledger source_sha256 refreshed over the final report set (aa5e3157…) — the second run.sh pass had rewritten it against an intermediate state. - Changelog: tie the 46 count to the 0.9.0 472-package audit and note the 14 committed identity removals; drop the reverted list claim. Both ecosystem gates re-verified green; full suite and clippy clean.

The delta since the last review is 3d7839f, which addresses every round-1 finding; each was re-verified against the code and the corpus locally.
- Reverted the list-projection length change —
subset_vectoris back to plainindex.lengthfor positive numeric indices, accepting R's NULL/NA padding for list bases;ry105_projection_lengths_follow_r_null_paddingnow pins the atomic binding form as a true positive and documents that list-typed bindings stay silent through the atomic-mode admission. - Added a
longest_arg_or_zerostub spec forfile.path— any zero-length argument now propagatesLength::Zeroper ?file.path, whilelongest_arg_lengthstays untouched for paste/paste0 andUnknownstill propagates; the recall fixture now exercises the binding form (p <- file.path(character(0), "x")stays silent, the all-literal dead guard still fires). - Routed defaulted parameters through the project-
length.*check — an unclassed default (function(x = 1L)) no longer counts as "proven unclassed", matching RY105's treatment ofdefault_parameter_bindings; classed-default and unclassed-default fixtures cover both directions, and the in-commit arm-ordering slip (which briefly re-flagged two audited gt guards) is corrected in the final arm structure. - Refreshed the posit ledger provenance —
source_sha256now recomputes exactly (aa5e3157…overposit.*.root.txt),check-ledger.pyis green on both ledgers (428 posit / 103 tidyverse, counts match), and the tidyverse digest still reproduces (d9d1fca1…). - Tightened the CHANGELOG and scalar-guards wording — the 46-warning count is tied to the 0.9.0 472-package audit and distinguished from the 14 committed guard-identity removals (matches the ledgers: 10 posit + 4 tidyverse RY032), and the reverted list claim is gone from the 0.10.0 notes.
Verified locally: recall_rules (43) and scalar_guard_packages (5) plus the full ry-checker lib suite (830) pass; both ledger digests reproduce from the committed reports; the corpus diff contains zero added findings.
ℹ️ Nitpicks
- The PR description still says "eleven RY032 guard sites" for the posit removals — the enumeration (cli, gt ×5, leaflet ×3, usethis) and the ledger both give ten; the CHANGELOG's 14 is correct.

…spec
Preparing the r-typeshed joint release surfaced a duplication: the
`arg0_value` length string reinvented the documented
`return_length: {kind: param_value}` mechanism (`size_argument_length`
already resolves a numeric parameter's value as the result length, with
identical truncation and unknown handling). seq_len now uses it:
"length": "unknown" + return_length param_value on length.out
Behavior is identical (literal counts stay Known(n), anything dynamic
stays Unknown); the custom vocabulary string is removed so the upstream
stub change needs no new length spec. `longest_arg_or_zero` stays: no
existing spec expresses file.path's any-zero-dominance for a variadic
`...` signature (zero_if_any_param_zero takes named params only), and
it will be documented in r-typeshed's SCHEMA.md.
The vendor diff against current r-typeshed master is now exactly the two
upstream-bound stub corrections.
Matches the r-typeshed release candidate carrying the file.path and seq_len corrections; the vendor copy is content-identical to the upstream stubs/base/base.json on fix/base-length-semantics.

The delta since the last review is 5aab09a, a pure refactor of the #377 seq_len fix; no corpus, ledger, or report files moved.
- Expressed
seq_lenthrough the existingparam_valuereturn-length spec — the stub now declares"length": "unknown"withreturn_length: {kind: param_value, param: "length.out", default_length: 0}, and the bespokeJsonLength::Arg0Valuevariant plus itsconstruct.rsarm are removed, so the upstream r-typeshed stub correction needs no new length-vocabulary string (longest_arg_or_zerostays forfile.path, whose variadic...shape no existing spec expresses).
Verified locally: both specs bottom out in the same size_argument_length evaluator, and bound_args resolves length.out through R's three-pass matching, so positional, exact-named, and partial-named calls pin identical literal counts while dynamic counts stay Unknown; the callback path still falls back to the declared unknown. The only divergences are on R-erroring calls (seq_len(), unmatched named arguments), which now type as Known(0) instead of Unknown and already draw RY090/RY091 arity diagnostics — and default_length: 0 matches the convention of the six existing param_value users (the atomic constructors). ry-typeshed (34 tests), recall_rules (43), scalar_guard_packages (5), and the ry-checker lib suite (830) all pass, with the schema validator accepting the new return_length block.

This assert — as its own comment notes — passes whether seq_len(3) types as Known(3) or Unknown, so the literal half of the new param_value spec has no positive witness anywhere (the metamorphic.rs seq_len cases are invariance pairs, and RY105 form 1 reads the raw stub length, which is now "unknown"). Consider adding assert!(fires("i <- seq_len(1) if (length(i) > 0L) stop("unreachable") ", "RY105")) — verified it fires today through the local-binding form — to match the module's pin-both-directions convention and the file.path positive at line 373.

Review of #501: 6d4ba4f, the commit that took ecosystem/reports/scales.root.txt from 62 bytes to empty, landed via #459, not #460 (the 0.10.0 release-prep PR merged a few hours later, none of whose commits touch the file). The README attribution now names the PR that actually emptied it; the curl/jsonlite -> #374 attribution on the same line is verified correct and unchanged.

Context
The 0.10.0 aggregate merged early (#452) before the remaining review-scoped false positives were dispositioned, and no tag or product was published. Per the maintainer's call, this folds the three closeable fixes into 0.10.0 before tagging rather than shipping an intermediate release.

Now uses lenient resolution and, per the requirements recorded in #449, proves the guard before honoring it: a provably classed parameter refuses the exclusion, an unknown class refuses it while the project registers/defines/imports anylength.*S3 method, and any reassignment inside the guarded operand refuses it. The disguised-lengthcase fromdocs/scalar-guards.mdnow warns as it should.
