ProbeLabsviewing a historical runWhen Set is called twice on the same input with the same value and key path, the second call shall produce the same output as applying Set once -- the operation is idempotent for existing keys.
Specification
The requirement exactly as authored — its complete prose text and, where present, the formal FRETish sentence it compiles to.
When Set is called twice on the same input with the same value and key path, the second call shall produce the same output as applying Set once -- the operation is idempotent for existing keys.
the parser shall always satisfy !set_applied_twice_with_same_args | set_second_call_produces_same_result

Rationale & tags
Why this requirement exists, and how it is categorised.
Set idempotency for existing keys means callers can safely retry mutations without checking whether the first call succeeded. This is important for at-least-once delivery patterns.
Verification & provenance
How this requirement was checked: the review trail, edit history, and the machine-analysis status terms (each ⓘ explains what it means).

For an existing key path setConfig (parser.go:1402) resolves the value span via internalGetConfig (parser.go:1408) and splices setValue over the same [startOffset,endOffset) range, so applying Set again with the same key and same value produces byte-identical output — the operation is idempotent as required. The insertion is a pure function of (data, setValue, keys) with no state carried across calls. TestSetIdempotency applies Set twice on the second call's own output and asserts bytes.Equal, passing.

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.
Formula evidence
The formal formula behind this requirement, the variables it is written over, and the tests that exercise it (each term is explained inline).

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.
