Fix Hundred-Battle Veteran

[ITC-MSM]

Summary

Fixes two independent bugs behind Hundred-Battle Veteran's single coverage gap. (1) A live rules-correctness bug: its "as long as three or more different kinds of counters among creatures you control" condition failed to parse and silently fell back to always-true, so the creature was permanently 6/6 instead of conditionally so. (2) A coverage false negative: its graveyard-cast-with-a-finality-counter rider already resolves correctly at runtime but wasn't recognized by the CR 614.1c carrier audit, which also wrongly flagged four other cards identically.

• Reach-guarded runtime probe (both in-agent implementation and independent final review reproduced this by hand): reverting only the Unit A parser registration makes the new condition.rs unit tests fail cleanly with a nom::Err/ErrorKind::Tag on the exact "there are three or more different kinds of counters..." phrase, and the GameScenario P/T-boost suite's control anthem confirms the round-trip genuinely forces evaluate_layers (not a false-negative no-op harness)

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

Hundred-Battle Veteran’s distinct counter-kind condition now parses as a quantity comparison. Replacement detection recognizes represented counter-entry modes. Integration tests cover thresholds, scope, deduplication, recomputation, and self-counting. The parser backlog removes the card from the affected list.

The test module is registered, and backlog totals are updated.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to d2e0b

The parser fix enables the intended conditional behavior, but the audit can still hide a real unsupported clause when multiple riders share one line. The PR is not merge-ready until that check is made clause-scoped or the risk is explicitly accepted.

3029-3044: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Split the as long as condition before full-consumption parsing. The generic branch passes the effect clause to parse_static_condition, so the comma causes parse_distinct_counter_kinds_among_tail to reject the text. Returning its remainder alone is insufficient because parse_static_condition also requires an empty remainder. The condition becomes StaticCondition::Unrecognized, making the +2/+4 boost unconditional. Parse only the condition clause while preserving full-consumption checks for standalone conditions.

Keep replacement suppression clause-scoped.

When one line contains both a represented cast-permission rider and an unrepresented enters with rider, the unit-wide evidence causes the represented carrier to suppress the Replacement diagnostic for both clauses. Keep the check tied to the specific clause and add a same-line regression.

[ITC-MSM]

Verified both findings from the CodeRabbit review against the current code with real evidence. Summary:

Finding 1 (crates/engine/src/parser/oracle_nom/quantity.rs ~3029-3044) — REFUTED

Claim: the generic "as long as" branch passes the full effect clause (condition + , this creature gets +2/+4) to parse_static_condition, so parse_distinct_counter_kinds_among_tail's full-consumption check fails on the trailing comma, the condition falls back to StaticCondition::Unrecognized, and the boost becomes unconditional.

This does not match the actual call chain. parse_conditional_static (crates/engine/src/parser/oracle_static/anthem.rs:667-693) does:

let conditional = text.strip_prefix("As long as ")?;
let (condition_text, remainder) = conditional.split_once(", ")?;   // <-- split BEFORE parsing
let condition = parse_static_condition(condition_text).unwrap_or(StaticCondition::Unrecognized { .. });
let mut def = parse_static_line(remainder.trim())?;

The condition clause is isolated at the first comma before parse_static_condition (and therefore before parse_there_are_conditions → parse_quantity_ref → parse_distinct_counter_kinds_among_tail) ever sees any text. parse_static_condition (oracle_static/shared.rs:2954) then does require full consumption (rest.trim().is_empty()), but only over condition_text — "there are three or more different kinds of counters among creatures you control" — never the effect clause. This is the same split-then-full-consume precedent every sibling "as long as … gets +N/+M" static already relies on, not a new/ad-hoc mechanism.

Confirmed at runtime too, on the production parse-and-load pipeline (not a synthetic/isolated parser call): cargo test -p phase-engine --test integration hundred_battle_veteran — all 7 tests in hundred_battle_veteran_counter_kind_gate.rs pass on the current head, including:

• 0 distinct counter kinds → 4/2 (gate OFF)
• 3 distinct counter kinds → 6/6 (gate ON)
• exactly 2 kinds (GE-3 boundary) → 4/2

This repo's own automated coverage-parse-diff bot independently corroborates this on this exact head (d2e0bb9b8): conditional: unrecognized → # of counter kinds among you control creature ≥ 3 for Hundred-Battle Veteran — i.e., the condition is demonstrably NOT Unrecognized.

No code change made for this finding — it was already correct.

Finding 2 (crates/engine/src/parser/swallow_check.rs ~9154-9163) — CONFIRMED AND FIXED

The pinned test's Hundred-Battle Veteran assertion only checked the negative (!has_swallowed_detector(...)), with no prior positive assertion proving the input reached StaticMode::GraveyardCastPermission { enters_with_counter: Some(_), .. }. Real gap per this repo's own "every negative assertion needs a paired positive reach-guard" lens.

I independently wrote and verified the exact fix proposed, then found the maintainer had already pushed an equivalent (byte-identical) fix in commit d2e0bb9b8 along with a stale-CR-citation cleanup in the same file. Reconciled onto that commit rather than push a duplicate. Replied inline confirming this. Re-verified on the current head: cargo test -p phase-engine --lib parser::swallow_check::tests (164 passed), cargo test -p phase-engine --test integration hundred_battle_veteran (7 passed), cargo fmt --all --check (clean), cargo clippy -p phase-engine --all-targets -- -D warnings (clean), scripts/check-parser-combinators.sh upstream/main (Gate A PASS, head d2e0bb9b89852c32dbf050b96793e3b4d166549f).

[matthewevans]

Maintainer follow-up on head d4c9e55d46b94bae989ef197f59005522ad91d5f: I ported this branch across current main, resolving the stale parser-backlog metric conflict while preserving both mainline and PR changes. The branch is now textually mergeable. It is held only for the new current-head CI run and the <!-- coverage-parse-diff --> receipt; once those settle, maintainer review will resume for approval/enqueue or changes requested.

[matthewevans]

[MED] The new cast-permission carrier silences unrelated enters with clauses that share its Oracle source line. Evidence: crates/engine/src/parser/swallow_check.rs:380-392 returns solely from unit-wide UnitEvidence; audit units are explicitly one per source line in crates/engine/src/parser/oracle_ir/feature.rs:246-254. The added per-clause regression uses a newline, so it proves independence across units but not across sentences in one unit. Why it matters: a represented graveyard/exile-cast rider can make the coverage audit falsely accept a separate, unrepresented replacement rider on that same line. Suggested fix: scope this carrier exemption to its associated if you cast ... this way, it enters with ... sentence (or equivalent semantic item), and add a same-line mixed-rider regression asserting the unsupported rider still yields the single Replacement diagnostic.

Current required checks and the parse-diff receipt are green for d4c9e55d46b94bae989ef197f59005522ad91d5f; this is a source-review finding, not a CI failure. Separately, no approval/enqueue action will occur while staging run 33088868529 for fba25131564a346d502d24ada326ea58eb6a0689 remains incomplete.

[ITC-MSM]

@matthewevans Just a friendly status flag, no urgency — this one's been fully green for a while now (all checks passing on d4c9e55d4). Standing by whenever the staging gate clears and it's convenient for you.
