fix(findings): tie a suggestion to the span it replaces - #114
Conversation
`existing_code` is quoted as the smallest span that shows the problem; `suggestion` was written for the whole construct the problem lives in. Only the first reaches GitHub, so a one-line anchor carrying a block replacement inserted the fix above the lines it was meant to replace and left both in the file. Seen on tinyflows#52, where a comment on src/validate.rs:441 carried a 14-line block. `suggest::applicable` now refuses a replacement covering more lines than its anchor; the module doc claimed this and `Finding::range` had always quietly defaulted to a single line. A narrower replacement still passes — the refusal is about the two spans disagreeing, not about size. The schema and prompt now say the replacement covers exactly the quoted lines, that `existing_code` must be widened when the fix needs a line it does not cover, and that a fix worth writing goes in `suggestion` as code rather than in `body` as prose. Corpus not yet re-recorded: `eval::committed_test` fails on the changed prompt until `eval run --record` is run with a working key. Co-authored-by: Medulla <medulla@tinyhumans.ai>

📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe change aligns prompt and schema guidance with GitHub suggestion spans. It also rejects multi-line replacements anchored to one line and adds tests for rejected, fully covered, and narrower replacements. ChangesSuggestion span safety
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The PR prevents some malformed one-click edits, but longer replacements can still exceed multi-line anchors, and inconsistent guidance may omit valid fixes. The committed evaluation test also fails pending corpus re-recording, so merge should wait for these issues to be addressed. Possibly related PRs

The guard only refused a multi-line replacement on a single-line anchor, while the module doc claimed any replacement longer than its anchor was refused — the same overstatement this PR set out to fix. A two-line anchor carrying a three-line replacement stranded the third line below the inserted block. Compare against the inclusive anchor length instead, which subsumes the single-line case. Narrower replacements still pass. The schema also told the model to omit `suggestion` when the fix spans more than the anchor, where the prompt told it to widen `existing_code` and write the fix out. A schema-guided reply could drop a good one-click fix rather than widen; omission is now for judgement calls and fixes that cannot be written in full. Co-authored-by: Medulla <medulla@tinyhumans.ai>

The `suggestion` field description and the anchoring guidance both moved, and the cassettes are keyed on prompt text, so every call missed and `eval::committed_test` failed by design. Recorded with `eval run --record` at $0.1251. Both regressions the corpus exists to guard still hold — `forbidden` is 0 on each case. Cassettes carry the keyed answer only; `record_prompts` stays off, so no reviewed diff is committed here. The baseline comparison reports NOT COMPARABLE. That predates this branch: `evals/baselines/current.json` was recorded on 2026-08-09 and the config digest has moved since on config changes alone, which the replacement prompt cannot affect — `digest_of` hashes lanes, gates, models and budget, never prompt text. Refreshing the baseline is left alone rather than folded into this branch. Co-authored-by: Medulla <medulla@tinyhumans.ai>
Both comments from this review are addressed in c034ba8 and their threads are resolved: the guard now compares the replacement against the inclusive anchor length ((start..=end).count()) with a regression test for the multi-line-anchor case, and the schema wording no longer contradicts the prompt on when to omit suggestion.
Dismissing only because the verdict is stale and CodeRabbit is rate limited, so it cannot re-submit to clear itself. Re-review was requested first. No feedback here is being retired unaddressed; tinysweeper re-reviewed the same commit and approved, CI is 16/16 green, and 0 threads are unresolved.

What
A suggestion block is committed over exactly the lines the comment is anchored to. Nothing tied the replacement to that span, so the two disagreed and GitHub applied the anchor.
src/harness/prompt.rs:478asks the model to quote "the smallest span that shows the problem" intoexisting_code.src/harness/schema.rsdescribedsuggestionas "Replacement text for the anchored lines" — with nothing saying which lines those were.src/lanes/mod.rs:165derives the anchor only fromexisting_code, andsuggest::applicableuses it as the replaced range.So the model quotes one line and writes a whole-block replacement.
What it did on a real PR
tinyflows#52 got a comment on
src/validate.rs:441withstart_line: null— a single line — carrying a 14-line```suggestion. The anchored line was theif let Some(assignees) = …head of a let-chain; the replacement was the whole rewritten block. Committing it would have inserted the rewrite above theerrors.push(…)body it was meant to replace, leaving the file with the fix and the bug in it at once.The same anchor wrecked indentation on the
validate.rs:458comment:reindentmeasured the shortfall against one deeply-indented line and padded all 14 lines by it.The prose-fix symptom is the same cause from the other side. When the fix does not fit the quoted line the model abandons
suggestionand writes it intobodyinstead — "Suggested fix: check ifctx.caps.approvalsisSomeand callprovider.cancel(…)" — a fix nobody can apply.src/findings/suggest.rsalready claimed a suggestion "is only emitted with an explicitstart_line..linespan". It never was:Finding::range(types.rs:146) falls back to(line, line), so the guarantee was documented and not implemented.Behaviour change
suggest::applicablereturnsNonewhen the replacement covers more lines than its anchor. The replacement still reaches the reader as the inert fence in the folded summary — it stops being a button, not a suggestion.suggestionas the fixed code covering exactlyexisting_code, and says to widenexisting_codewhen the fix needs a line it does not cover.suggestionempty rather than emit a bad one-click commit.Net effect on the failing PR: the two mis-anchored blocks stop being commit buttons, and the prose fixes get written as code against a span wide enough to hold them.
Testing
cargo fmt --all -- --check,cargo clippy --locked --all-targets -- -D warningsandcargo check --locked --all-features --all-targetsare clean. 3 new tests, the first reproducing the tinyflows#52 anchor exactly.Not ready to merge yet
eval::committed_testfails. This is the tripwire working as designed — the corpus is keyed on prompt text and this PR edits the prompt. Verified green onmain's prompt and red on this one, so the change is the cause, and--loosecannot clear it (the test assertsloose_replays == 0precisely because loose numbers describe the recorded prompt).Clearing it needs
