jsonparser
ProbeLabsviewing a historical runThe fastest JSON parser for Go — formally verified with ReqProof (real library, master).
When a JSON object member key is escaped in the payload and the decoded path segment matches that logical key value, Get shall resolve the member through the normal successful lookup contract.
Specification
The requirement exactly as authored — its complete prose text and, where present, the formal FRETish sentence it compiles to.
When a JSON object member key is escaped in the payload and the decoded path segment matches that logical key value, Get shall resolve the member through the normal successful lookup contract.
the parser shall always satisfy !escaped_json_object_key_is_present | !decoded_path_segment_matches_escaped_key | returns_value_from_decoded_escaped_key

Why this requirement exists, and how it is categorised.
Rationale & tags
Why this requirement exists, and how it is categorised.
Escaped-key matching is caller-visible compatibility behavior and should be specified directly rather than left implicit in helper implementation.
Verification & provenance
How this requirement was checked: the review trail, edit history, and the machine-analysis status terms (each ⓘ explains what it means).

Obligations
What this requirement must witness to be considered satisfied — the required evidence, and the tests that discharge each one.
The tests that discharge each obligation aren't available for a historical run
The evidence matrix behind each obligation comes from the live audit index, which can't be rebuilt for a past commit. Nothing here means unknown — not that the requirement has no obligations.

Variables
| Name | Type | Direction | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| escaped_json_object_key_is_present | — | True when the addressed object member key is encoded with JSON escape sequences in the payload. | |
| decoded_path_segment_matches_escaped_key | — | True when the decoded lookup path segment matches the logical value of an escaped JSON object key. | |
| returns_value_from_decoded_escaped_key | — | True when Get resolves an escaped JSON object key by comparing the decoded path segment to the logical key value. |

MC/DC truth table· 4 rows
Each row assigns the formula's conditions (T/F) and shows the Result— the formula's value for that input row, not a test pass/fail. A row proves a condition when flipping only that condition flips the outcome. The test that covers each row is linked.
