PR gate 39073934326 (93449bc) failed qa-functional-cli-report with no observed
unannounced defect, the same class as 38983306684 and 39001107574. The agent
read 'allowed characters' as the ID rule only, counted -5 as its sign probe
and never probed the amount's digits-only rule with an otherwise valid value,
so the seeded parseInt defect stayed hidden. The stop rule now says each
field's documented input rule needs a probe breaking only it, and that a
signed amount breaks sign and digits-only and covers neither; the functional
table row names input rules per field. The qa union stays inside its parity
ratio.

Functional QA with repository-native tools
Use documented repository commands, CLI/API clients and job/queue tools, not a new harness or browser substitution.
Functional modes
For /qa and /qa-only, within the selected scope:
- Full (default): cover every applicable documented contract below.
- Quick (
--quick): check success and the highest-risk changed edge; mark other contracts not run. - Regression (
--regression <previous-report>): before probes, read the supplied functional report and linked replay evidence. A missing, unreadable or wrong-target baseline blocks regression mode. A browser-onlybaseline.jsonis not a functional baseline. Re-establish owned setup; replay prior failed probes against the documented expectation, never recorded buggy output, then check changed adjacent behavior. Preserve the prior report; report fixed, still failing and new findings separately. Missing safe replay inputs block affected probes, never count as passes.
Mixed runs apply each surface's mode separately. /review and /ship retain their caller's bounded smoke and explicit plan checks, not Full exploration.
Contract map
Record each contract/source, isolated setup, exact probe, expectation and outcome: pass/fail/blocked/not run/inconclusive/not applicable (reason).
| Contract | Observe |
|---|---|
| Successful execution | Expected return/output and final business effect, not just launch/acceptance |
| Invalid/missing input | One probe per documented input rule of each field (allowed characters, format, sign, range, arity) breaking only it: declared rejection, correct status and no forbidden state change |
| Authentication/authorization | Valid identity, missing/invalid identity, wrong owner/role and durable no-effect boundary |
| CLI process contract | Exact exit code, stdout and stderr separately; resulting file/state changes |
| State transitions | Initial, intermediate and completed/failed states and their permitted transitions |
| Timeout/cancellation | Deadline, partial state, termination of owned work and recovery |
| Retry | Attempts/backoff/terminal state promised by the repository; no unbounded retry |
| Duplicates/idempotency | Repeated request/event and number of durable effects under the documented guarantee |
| Concurrency/order | Controlled competing operations in both relevant completion orders; final invariant |
| Partial-failure recovery | Interrupt after an effect, restart/replay, inspect completion/dead-letter state and duplicates |
Do not impose universal exactly-once delivery. Separate acceptance, enqueue, processing, retry/dead-letter and final effect; 2xx is not completion. Expected rejection/injected failure may pass; a missing service preventing execution blocks coverage.
Execute and retain evidence
- Apply the shared isolation/permission preflight. Verify cwd, command, environment NAMES and safe reset; use synthetic data/credentials.
- Follow the shared exploratory loop's order and written checkpoints. For every probe, inspect initial/final durable state and retain exit/status and stdout/stderr separately without masking failure.
- On timeout, retain partial output/state and stop only owned work. Record setup errors and untested contracts; never patch product code to hide missing prerequisites.
- Record exact command or method/path/headers/body, setup/reset, expected contract/source, observed output/state, revision/runtime, evidence paths and limits. Secrets are referenced only by environment name. Disclose replay limits caused by redaction.
- Use
templates/functional-report-template.mdrelative to the installed QA SKILL.md. Preserve evidence before owned cleanup and disclose leftovers. Return to the caller without expanding discovery authority.
