Summary

Fixes the formula-based damage-prevention misparses and the open review feedback. Formula amounts now preserve their typed quantity or rounded fraction; Rem Karolus scopes prevention to an opponent or another permanent that opponent controls, and only from spells. Compound player/permanent shields now bind follow-up riders to the actual damaged recipient. Repeatable event-relative prevention is recognized only as one contiguous each time …, prevent … clause, while unsupported event-relative forms remain honest prevent gaps rather than becoming one-damage shields.

Claimed parse impact

The frozen receipt against 74979d4b09912c678372bc783f49b840c27d0d9a, generated with the same pinned MTGJSON cache for both revisions, reports 31 cards across 18 signatures:

Change Cards
Added formula replacements Cover of Winter; Plated Pegasus; Gisela, Blade of Goldnight; Shield of the Avatar; Battletide Alchemist
Added explicit prevent gaps Tornellan Protector; Dark Sphere
Removed fallback effects Generic PreventDamage::Next(1) on Battletide Alchemist, Cover of Winter, Gisela, and Shield of the Avatar; spell-scoped fallback on Plated Pegasus; each on Tornellan; the on Dark Sphere
Fixed numeric representation 12 fixed-one and 7 fixed-two prevention shields
Fixed spell-source filter Benevolent Unicorn; Rem Karolus, Stalwart Slayer
Fixed controlled-permanent recipient scope Rem Karolus, The Wanderer, Gideon's Intervention, Valkmira, Blessed Sanctuary, Hedron-Field Purists
Fixed prevention rider target Shadowbane

The review-feedback additions are intentionally parse-surface neutral in the corpus: they make compound-rider binding, contiguous watcher classification, and test-tree traversal correct without fabricating a new supported interpretation.

Scope Expansion

Expanded from Gisela to the reusable class of fixed, quantity-based, and fractional prevention formulas, plus spell-source and compound recipient scopes. The feedback fixes generalize rider rebinding across controller, opponent, and source-selected compound scopes; they do not add a card-specific branch. Dark Sphere and Tornellan Protector remain explicit prevent gaps until their event-relative watcher semantics are representable.

Validation Failures

None.

CI Failures

None.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The engine now represents damage prevention with fixed, quantity-based, and fractional formulas. Oracle parsing supports these formulas and expanded target grammar. Replacement resolution tracks authorized choosers and evaluates live prevention values. Parser and integration tests cover supported and unsupported cases.

Formula and choice contracts
crates/engine/src/types/ability.rs, crates/engine/src/types/game_state.rs, crates/engine/src/analysis/resource.rs, crates/engine/src/database/synthesis.rs
PreventionFormula replaces raw prevention amounts. Replacement definitions record choice authority, and pending state records the authorized chooser.

The parser handles fixed, fractional, and quantity-based prevention formulas, expanded recipient grammar, spell sources, and named unsupported-prevention gaps.
Formula evaluation and choice flow
crates/engine/src/game/replacement.rs
Replacement resolution evaluates formulas with rounding and saturation, distinguishes formula-based ordering, and preserves or declines optional choices according to authorized players.
Integration validation and fixture updates
crates/engine/tests/integration/*, crates/engine/src/game/*, crates/engine/src/types/resolution.rs, docs/parser-misparse-backlog.md
Tests cover prevention formulas, scopes, ordering, optional choices, and unsupported clauses. Pending replacement fixtures and parser backlog counts are updated.

[MED] Optional shield-style prevention still prevents on decline. Evidence: crates/engine/src/parser/oracle_replacement.rs:12070-12077 makes every "you may prevent" replacement optional, including the PreventionRepr::Shield path at :12056-12057. But the decline short-circuit in crates/engine/src/game/replacement.rs:9200-9210 recognizes only QuantityModification::Prevent and DamageModification::PreventionMinus; it omits ShieldKind::Prevention. A declined optional prevent that damage / prevent all damage shield therefore reaches the shield applier, whose PreventionAmount::All arm returns Prevented at :2713-2728. This makes the controller's decline choice ineffective for that sibling class.

Please make the decline branch cover the shield representation as well (without altering non-prevention optional replacement behavior), and add a discriminating production-pipeline regression that reaches GameAction::ChooseReplacement { index: 1 } for an optional shield-style prevention effect and proves the original damage is dealt. Retain the existing formula decline test as its sibling coverage.

Call effects::attach::attach_to for the fixture setup.

The repository has no scenario attachment helper. Use attach_to(runner.state_mut(), shield, equipped) after setting the Equipment characteristics. This production helper updates both attached_to and the host’s attachments list; the direct assignment updates only one side.

event-relative prevention rules, using a verified CR number and description. Add
a regression test for parse_imperative_family_ast with “each time a source would
deal damage to you, prevent half that damage.” and assert that it produces
Effect::Unimplemented; do not use “prevent that damage,” which the detector does
not recognize. Keep the existing parse_prevent_effect test unchanged.

parse_damage_target_phrase to DamageTargetFilter::PlayerOrPermanentsControlledBy

Preserve recipient_from_event as false only for controller-scoped matches so
opponent recipient phrases continue through the existing event-target rewrite
path.

- Around line 26-27: Update the GISELA and REM test fixtures to use their
complete keyword-aware Oracle text, including the opponent-damage clauses, so
both cards install all expected replacements. Raise the Gisela replacement guard
to 2, add the equivalent Rem guard, and adjust replacement selections and
assertions so Spell to Rem damage reflects the full-text behavior (3 becomes 4).

Restrict this branch to controller-scoped recipients. parse_damage_target_phrase maps "to an opponent or a permanent an opponent controls" to PlayerOrPermanentsControlledBy with player: Opponent. The new arm sets recipient_from_event to false, so a matching prevention follow-up can skip rewrite_parent_target_to_post_replacement_damage_target for "it" or "that creature". Match player: Controller explicitly. No current corpus card exercises this path.

Additional current-head review evidence at 156ba34e081057cc5be85ce066b5bf96371ef558 (the existing CHANGES_REQUESTED remains the formal disposition):

[MED] The declared card impact is not reconciled to the current parse receipt. The SHA-bound receipt reports 31 cards across 18 signatures, while the PR body claims seven named cards. In particular it reports an added prevention formula for Shield of the Avatar and shared source/recipient/fixed-form changes for cards outside that list. Please either account for each additional card/signature as intentional scope with focused reach/regression evidence, or narrow the parser change so the claimed and measured sets align. Receipt: #8768 (comment)

[MED] The end-to-end Gisela and Rem fixtures omit the other printed replacement on each card. crates/engine/tests/integration/damage_prevention_formula.rs:26-32 seeds only their prevention sentence, but the actual Oracle text has Gisela's opponent-damage doubler and Rem's opponent spell-damage +1 clause. Use complete card Oracle text (including keywords where the scenario helper requires it) and prove both replacements are installed while preserving the targeted prevention/source-scope assertions. This closes the full-card production-pipeline gap noted by the current CodeRabbit review.

Addressed the maintainer and CodeRabbit findings in 6f700b7. Optional declined replacements now bypass direct damage modifiers, prevention/redirect shields, and generic quantity prevention while preserving the selected replacement’s premark/continuation. Added full Oracle regressions for Gisela, Rem, Plated Pegasus, and Shield of the Avatar; exact strict-gap coverage for event-relative prevention; and the complete 31-card/18-signature receipt. Final engine tests, clippy, coverage, semantic audit, and parser Gate A are recorded in the PR body.

- Around line 76-81: Update the prevention detection logic around
has_event_relative_prevention_amount and scan_at_word_boundaries so “each time”
is recognized only when parsed as part of the same clause containing “prevent”
and the event-relative formula. Use composable nom parsers for this combined
structure, and add a regression test where an unrelated later “each time”
sentence does not trigger repeatable-watcher handling, preserving the supported
prevention effect and failing closed for unsupported clauses.

In `@crates/engine/src/parser/oracle_tests.rs`:
- Around line 26969-26977: Update the fallback effect collection in the test
around unimplemented_keys and collect_all_effects so it also traverses every
parsed.triggers[*].execute tree, not only parsed.abilities. Use this complete
effect collection for both assertions, and ensure the test fixture includes a
trigger tree containing the named prevent gap alongside a nested
PreventDamage::Next(1) fallback so the failure path is exercised.

[HIGH] Opponent-owned compound damage recipients bypass anaphor rebinding. Evidence: crates/engine/src/parser/oracle_replacement.rs:11942-11949 assigns recipient_from_event: false to every PlayerOrPermanentsControlledBy result, but the compound opponent form is accepted at :8443-8452 and :8477-8480. The downstream event-reference rewrite at :12116 / :12211-12213 therefore misses “it” / “that creature” for the opponent-scoped sibling. This can bind the replacement recipient to the wrong damage event. Restrict the false marker to Controller, or explicitly cover both scopes, and add a sibling-authority regression that proves the opponent form is rebound correctly.

[MED] The parser fallback test does not traverse trigger execute trees. Evidence: crates/engine/src/parser/oracle_tests.rs:26962-26977 pairs its trigger reach scan with collect_all_effects, but that collector at :13891-13906 omits parsed.triggers[*].execute. A named prevention gap nested under a trigger can therefore leave the negative assertion green while the fallback is wrong. Use one complete tree traversal for both assertions and add a nested trigger fallback fixture that fails if trigger effects are skipped.

These are current-head blockers. The current exact-SHA parse receipt and green CI do not establish the two parser paths above. CodeRabbit independently raised the same recipient-scope and trigger-collection concerns in #8768 (comment) and #8768 (comment).

Addressed the open review feedback in a867c2b9e7a9d35df792523abebc2885d7752995:

  • compound player/permanent prevention recipients now rebind both typed riders and bare it to the actual damage-event recipient across controller, opponent, and source-selected scopes;
  • each time … prevent <event-relative amount> is parsed as one contiguous, sentence-bounded nom clause, so unrelated sentences cannot turn a supported prevention clause into a repeatable-watcher gap;
  • test effect collection now uses the canonical visitor for both normal abilities and trigger execute trees, with a regression fixture that includes the former hidden fallback path.

Validation is green: Gate A, cargo fmt, strict clippy, the full engine suite (21,069 unit / 6,723 integration), generated card data, coverage, semantic audit, and git diff --check. The pinned frozen-base receipt is 31 cards across 18 signatures, with no added/removed cards or Oracle-text drift.

Maintainer update completed for f278fa719edeb7d57940be1e193cc86016dbf438. Fresh exact-SHA parse-diff evidence, terminal CI, and a current-head re-review are still pending; disposition will resume after those gates settle.
