jsonparser
ProbeLabsviewing a historical runThe fastest JSON parser for Go — formally verified with ReqProof (real library, master).
When Set is called with a path that resolves to a location beyond the end of the available data (e.g., setting a deep nested key in a truncated document), the parser shall return an error rather than panicking or producing corrupt output.
Specification
The requirement exactly as authored — its complete prose text and, where present, the formal FRETish sentence it compiles to.
When Set is called with a path that resolves to a location beyond the end of the available data (e.g., setting a deep nested key in a truncated document), the parser shall return an error rather than panicking or producing corrupt output.
the parser shall always satisfy !set_path_points_beyond_eof | set_returns_error_for_path_beyond_eof

Why this requirement exists, and how it is categorised.
Set uses internalGet for path resolution. If the path points beyond available data, the offsets returned may be sentinel values that cause out-of-bounds access in the mutation logic.

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.

MC/DC truth table· 3 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.
