What changes for a user

  • --damage truncate cuts the end off a file, the way an interrupted upload or copy leaves it. missing is the share of the whole file that is gone, 1 to 90 percent, 50 by default.
  • --damage append-junk writes random bytes after the end of a file. bytes runs from 64 to 65536, 64 by default. The bytes come from the file's seed, so the same recipe appends the same bytes.
  • Both keep exactly the size that was asked for, and both work with every format. The generator writes a larger or smaller file and the damage brings it to the size on disk.
  • The manifest says what it can know. Where the damage breaks the rules of the format (a PNG with no IEND, a ZIP with no end record), the file is expected to be rejected with certainty, as before. Where readers differ (a text cut short is still text, most viewers skip bytes after a PNG's end), the entry says outcome: unspecified, confidence: policy_dependent, policy_options: ["accept", "reject"], and gives the reason in detail. policy_options was described in the manifest documents and never written until now. It is an added, optional field, so manifest_version stays 1.0.
  • tfg damage <id> lists the formats where the outcome depends on the system, with the reason. tfg damage --json carries them on every damage as policy_dependent: [{format, settings?, reason}]. settings narrows an entry to some settings of a format, for example txt in UTF-16 with append-junk.
  • expected: accept beside a damage is allowed where the outcome depends on the system, and still refused where the damage breaks the rules of the format. The recipe reader and the command line answer the same.
  • New refusals, made in the plan before anything is written: truncate after append-junk (it would cut away what was added), and a damage that changes the length on an archive whose size comes from what it holds. Both end with code 2 on the command line and code 3 in a recipe. A size too small for the damage, or too small for the format under it, is refused with the smallest size that works on disk. A size the format can only write inside a band (PNG, the Office formats) or with even length (UTF-16) is moved up before the cut, so missing means "at least".
  • The page about corrupt files is updated in all 22 languages, along with the README and the changelog. Its example test now leaves unspecified files to the reader's own policy.

How it is built

  • A target whose damage changes the length plans its files through a wrapped format.Descriptor. Its Plan takes the size on disk, asks the real generator for the size the damage needs, and returns a plan in the size on disk. So the manifest, the length check, progress, the run's total, the free space check and --dry-run all read the right number without changing. Drawing sizes from a range and SmallestAccepted work the same way, because the refusals they follow come back in that size. A chain that keeps the length (zero-head alone) is not wrapped, so its bytes and refusals are unchanged.
  • truncate stops the generator with damage.ErrKeptEnough once it has every byte it keeps. The engine reads this as success only for a damaged file. Generators write from the front, so stopping early changes no byte that reaches the disk. A guard compares every format byte for byte against the whole file.
  • The structural checker (internal/oracle/strict.py) now refuses a control character such as NUL in a CSV field (RFC 4180). Before, a one-row table with its head zeroed was accepted, because there was no other row to compare it with.

Tests

  • TestEveryDamageIsRefusedByTheStructuralCheckInEveryFormat now checks both directions:
    • A pair the manifest calls certain must be refused by the structural checker.
    • A pair that depends on the reader must be accepted, or refused for one of the reasons written in the guard. A reason the guard does not list fails it, and so does a listed reason that no file gives any more.
    • It also sweeps every choice and flag of every format one at a time at 20 kB.
  • damagelength_test.go:
    • The size is exact for every format and every damage that changes the length, including drawn ranges in formats with bands or parity.
    • A truncated file is the start of the whole one.
    • Appended junk is the whole smaller file followed by the damage's own draw, checked against a golden hash.
    • The smallest size is checked from both sides, including far below it.
  • damagepolicy_test.go covers:
    • what the manifest says in both classes;
    • accept on both sides of the line, in both surfaces;
    • the two new refusals, each with a control case;
    • that policy declarations name formats, settings and values that exist.
  • damagebytes_test.go covers the cut and junk streams and the length arithmetic. damagecommand_test.go covers policy_dependent in the JSON. strictverdict_test.go covers a NUL in a CSV field.
  • 28 new mutation entries, and 4 entries whose code moved were updated. There are 2088 in total.

Measured

Three interleaved runs, median: a 100 MB txt takes 0.26 s healthy and 0.25 s with truncate:missing=90, against 2.25 s for the healthy 1000 MB file the cut starts from.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added truncate and append-junk damage modes that preserve the requested file size.
    • Damage reports identify formats where reader outcomes may vary and show possible outcomes.
  • Changed
    • accept expectations are allowed when outcomes depend on the reader, but refused when damage violates format rules.
    • Length-changing damage is refused for content-sized archives; truncation cannot remove bytes added by an earlier damage mode.
  • Documentation
    • Updated help, README, and translated descriptions with damage options, settings, and outcomes.

truncate cuts the end off a file and append-junk writes random bytes after
it, and both keep the size that was asked for. Every format takes both. Where
the result breaks the rules of the format the manifest expects it to be
rejected, and where readers differ it says the outcome depends on the system
under test, with the reason and both answers.

The page about corrupt files in every language describes both damages, shows
what the manifest says where the outcome depends on the reader, and its
example test leaves those files to the reader's own policy.

Walkthrough

The change adds truncate and append-junk damage while preserving requested output sizes. It adds length-aware planning, format-specific policy outcomes, and checks for incompatible damage chains and content-derived sizes. CLI, manifest, documentation, and translations expose the added damage modes and outcomes.

Changes: Damage Generation and Policy Outcomes

Layer / File(s) Summary
Damage contracts and policy classification
internal/damage/damage.go, internal/damage/policy.go, internal/damage/refusals.go, internal/manifest/manifest.go
Damage descriptors now carry length, tail, and policy data. Policy matching uses format and settings to classify damage outcomes. Manifest expectations can include optional policy options.
Length-changing damage and chain execution
internal/damage/truncate.go, internal/damage/appendjunk.go, internal/damage/apply.go, internal/core/seed.go, internal/damage/zerohead.go, internal/guard/damagebytes_test.go, internal/guard/damagerefused_test.go
truncate removes a configured percentage of bytes, and append-junk adds deterministic pseudorandom bytes. The chain calculates per-step sizes and floors and derives per-damage seeds. Tests cover stream behavior and size calculations.
On-disk size planning and writing
internal/engine/damagedformat.go, internal/engine/damage.go, internal/engine/engine.go, internal/engine/parallel.go, internal/guard/damagelength_test.go, internal/guard/contextroots_test.go
The engine plans the underlying generator for the bytes required by the damage chain, reports requested on-disk sizes, translates size limits, and finishes damage streams after generation. Tests check output and manifest sizes.
Policy outcomes and damage refusals
internal/damage/refusals.go, internal/recipe/damage.go, internal/recipe/target.go, internal/cli/errors.go, internal/guard/damagepolicy_test.go, internal/guard/damagewitness_test.go, internal/oracle/strict.py, internal/guard/strictverdict_test.go, internal/guard/mutation/entries.py, internal/gui/text/locale/said/*
Expectation checks now account for format policy. Validation rejects damage that removes previously appended bytes and length-changing damage on content-sized targets. Guards cover policy outcomes, witness cases, and CSV control-character checks.
CLI reporting and documentation
internal/cli/damagecmd.go, internal/guard/damagecommand_test.go, CHANGELOG.md, README.md, internal/gui/text/locale/registry/*, web/content/*/site.json, .github/race-weights
The damage listing includes policy-dependent formats and reasons. Documentation and translations describe truncate, append-junk, and their reported outcomes.

Full details: Tests For Changed Behavior

Explanation

The PR adds tests for damage streams, size planning, manifest policies, refusals, CLI output, and CSV validation. The PR description explains why the structural-checker test now permits policy-dependent outcomes. Prior failure addressed: internal/guard/damagecommand_test.go:296-342 now checks both text commands for policy formats and setting values, checks detail reasons, and includes a damage with no policy cases.

Full details: Desktop Robustness

Explanation

The changes introduce no identified desktop robustness failure. Damage generation uses the existing progress and cancel controls, and output files use temporary files before publication. New numeric parsing uses Go's culture-independent strconv functions.

Full details: No Resource Leaks

Explanation

No resource leak was identified in the changed code. The damage streams hold Go-managed state, and writeOne closes the output file on success and error paths. Video generators also close their picture workers when truncation stops a write.

Full details: No Obvious Performance Problems

Explanation

Repeated append-junk entries still cause quadratic work. Chain.Open nests the streams, and Chain.Finish writes each tail through all later streams (internal/damage/apply.go:286-314, internal/damage/appendjunk.go:117-134). Recipes allow repeated entries (internal/recipe/damage.go:25-45). A chain of 10,000 default entries makes about 50 million forwarding calls for 640,000 appended bytes per file.

Resolution

Coalesce adjacent append-junk streams or bypass later pass-through streams when finishing them. Preserve their order, seeds, and downstream damage behavior.

Full details: Safe File Parsing

Explanation

A large YAML recipe can make generation appear to hang. recipe.damages accepts repeated entries without a chain limit. damage.Chain.Open nests the writers, and Chain.Finish calls junkTail.Finish for each entry. A chain of 50,000 append-junk entries fits within the 1 MiB recipe limit and causes about 1.25 billion writer calls for 3.2 MB of appended data. Finalization does not check cancellation.

Resolution

Limit damage-chain length in recipe and engine validation. Replace nested finalization with bounded, context-aware processing, and check cancellation during finalization.

Full details: Scope, Duplication And Docs

Explanation

The PR adds a duplicate size-search helper. damagedGenerator.firstWritable in internal/engine/damagedformat.go:186 repeats the existing refusal-driven search in internal/engine/drawsizes.go:44. Both advance using BelowMinimumError.Minimum. The new helper remains separate, so the prior failure is unresolved.

Resolution

Share the search logic between both callers. Preserve context handling, search limits, and error behavior.

Unverified finding
Verification ran but could not confirm this finding. It is shown for review, not as a verified issue.

The switch p.Kind is not exhaustive, so the exhaustive linter fails.

The linter reports missing cases for format.PropertyInt, PropertySize, PropertyDuration and PropertyText. The linters check is red on this change.

The guard intentionally skips those kinds. The doc comment says so: numbers are dimensions and counts, not shapes. Make that decision visible in the switch. Do not rely on an implicit fall-through.

Proposed fix

 		switch p.Kind {
 		case format.PropertyChoice:
 			values = p.Choices
 		case format.PropertyBool:
 			values = []string{"true", "false"}
+		case format.PropertyInt, format.PropertySize, format.PropertyDuration, format.PropertyText:
+			// Dimensions, counts, sizes and free text are not shapes. Not swept.

Use one term for the policy concept.

Review comments at @internal/cli/damagecmd.go:
- Line 148: Move the new user-facing messages in the damage command, including
the text printed by the fmt.Fprint call, into the dedicated English CLI strings
module. Update the damage-command output to reference those centralized strings
without changing the displayed wording.

Review comments at @internal/cli/errors.go:
- Around line 283-290: Update the mutation coverage around classifyFormat so the
existing entry targets the ExpectationConflictError branch rather than
NeedsSizeError. Add separate mutations for the EatenError and NeedsSizeError
branches that change ExitUsage to ExitFormat, and ensure each corresponding test
asserts exit code 2.

Review comments at @internal/damage/truncate.go:
- Around line 98-108: Update cutFor to detect when q*m would exceed int64 before
performing the multiplication and return math.MaxInt64 in that case; preserve
the existing rounded-up calculation when it is safe. Add coverage through
withCut for a large input such as 2.1e18 with m=90, verifying the result
saturates at math.MaxInt64.

Review comments at @internal/guard/damagecommand_test.go:
- Around line 236-248: In the policy comparison test, track compared cases with
a counter separate from the existing checked counter, increment it for each case
in the d.Policy loop, and fail the test if no policy cases were compared.

## What a change has to satisfy

- **Every change in behaviour comes with a test that fails without it.** A green
  suite is not evidence on its own. The question to answer in the pull request
  is "which test would go red if this change were undone". Each test in
  `internal/guard` is also broken on purpose by an entry in
  `internal/guard/mutation/entries.py`, and the `mutation` check on a pull
  request runs the entries the change reaches. A new test needs an entry there,
  or a line in `internal/guard/mutationcoverage_test.go` saying why it has none.

## What a change has to satisfy

- **A file is the size that was asked for, to the byte, or it is an error.**
  Never a size close to it, never a quiet rounding. A batch of ten thousand
  files is not something anybody checks by hand.

## Translations

The command line is **English only** and stays that way, translations included.
It goes into scripts and CI logs that other people read, and a message that
changes language with the machine it ran on is a message nobody can search for.

## What a change has to satisfy

- **The same recipe and the same seed produce the same bytes**, on every
  operating system. Anything that moves the bytes of a generated file is a
  breaking change, because it turns other people's test suites red. It is

Keep the new CLI messages in one place.

Put the new damage-command messages in a dedicated English CLI strings module. The CLI does not need translations, but the user-facing text rule requires strings to be kept together for review.

Review comment at @internal/cli/damagecmd.go at line 148:
Move the new user-facing messages in the damage command, including the text
printed by the fmt.Fprint call, into the dedicated English CLI strings module.
Update the damage-command output to reference those centralized strings without
changing the displayed wording.

Add mutation coverage for each new CLI refusal branch.

The existing mutation entry now matches the NeedsSizeError branch because the new EatenError and NeedsSizeError branches were inserted before classifyFormat. Repoint that entry to the ExpectationConflictError branch. Add separate entries that change the EatenError and NeedsSizeError results from ExitUsage to ExitFormat, and ensure their tests assert exit code 2.

🐛 Suggested mutation-entry fix

-        "\t\treturn ExitFormat, true\n\t}\n\tif code, ok := classifyFormat(err); ok {",
+        "\t\treturn ExitUsage, true\n\t}\n\t// The same class, for the same reason: a list of damages",
+        "\t\treturn ExitFormat, true\n\t}\n+        // Add equivalent entries for the EatenError and NeedsSizeError branches.

Update the mutation coverage around classifyFormat so the existing entry targets
the ExpectationConflictError branch rather than NeedsSizeError. Add separate
mutations for the EatenError and NeedsSizeError branches that change ExitUsage
to ExitFormat, and ensure each corresponding test asserts exit code 2.

Fix the int64 overflow in cutFor. The comment claims it cannot wrap, but q*m can.

The comment says dividing first stops a size near the int64 top from wrapping. The product q*m still wraps. When m is above 50, q*m is larger than out. For m=90, it wraps once out is above about 1.02e18. Example: out=2.1e18 and m=90 give a positive but wrong cut of about 4.5e17. withCut then returns 2.55e18 instead of saturating to math.MaxInt64. The Length contract in damage.go promises saturation. The generator is then asked for a wrong size, and the refusal text names a wrong number.

Saturate before the multiply.

Proposed fix

 func cutFor(out, m int64) int64 {
 	rest := 100 - m
 	q, r := out/rest, out%rest
+	if q > (math.MaxInt64-m)/m {
+		return math.MaxInt64
+	}
 	return q*m + (r*m+rest-1)/rest
 }

Add a test case such as withCut(2_100_000_000_000_000_000, 90) == math.MaxInt64.

Based on learnings: in Go, avoid raw fixed-width arithmetic on large or externally-derived values without overflow checks.

Review comment at @internal/damage/truncate.go around lines 98 - 108:
Update cutFor to detect when q*m would exceed int64 before performing the
multiplication and return math.MaxInt64 in that case; preserve the existing
rounded-up calculation when it is safe. Add coverage through withCut for a large
input such as 2.1e18 with m=90, verifying the result saturates at math.MaxInt64.

The policy check can pass without checking any policy case.

The checked counter at the end of the test already passes through settings. It does not require a policy case to be compared. If every damage declared an empty Policy, the policy comparison would never run and the test would stay green. Add a separate assertion that at least one policy case was compared.

Count policy cases in their own counter and fail when it is zero.

Proposed fix

 ...
 			for i, c := range d.Policy {
 				...
-				checked++
+				policyChecked++
 			}
 ...
+	if policyChecked == 0 {

…instead of wrapping

The format a length-changing damage plans through called format.PlanWith
itself in three places. It now asks through planWithoutCrashing like the rest
of the engine, so the rule has no exception and callers without a wrapper in
hand, such as SmallestDamaged, cannot take the process down.

cutFor multiplied before checking: with nine tenths missing the cut is nine
times the size kept and wrapped an int64 above about 1e18 B, handing a format
a smaller number than the one the damage needs. It saturates now, and the
guard on the floor of a cut asks a size that large.

Guards:
- a cut whose whole file is a size the format cannot write is asked directly
  (a third missing from a UTF-16 file), which the guard on exact sizes never
  reached
- the text of "tfg damage" and "tfg damage <id>" is held to naming the formats
  where the outcome depends on the reader, and the reason for each
- the machine readable list counts compared policy cases apart from settings
- the settings sweep names the property kinds it leaves out

Mutation entries: the entry on --expected accept pointed at the wrong branch
after two refusals were added below it, two entries did not compile as
mutants, and one named a guard that never reached the code. Repointed, and
the new guards and the saturation have entries of their own.

The README says "depends on your system" in the one place it said "policy",
and the race weights name the guard that takes over a minute.

## Translations

The command line is **English only** and stays that way, translations included.
It goes into scripts and CI logs that other people read, and a message that
changes language with the machine it ran on is a message nobody can search for.

## What a change has to satisfy

- **Every change in behaviour comes with a test that fails without it.** A green
  suite is not evidence on its own. The question to answer in the pull request
  is "which test would go red if this change were undone". Each test in
  `internal/guard` is also broken on purpose by an entry in
  `internal/guard/mutation/entries.py`, and the `mutation` check on a pull
  request runs the entries the change reaches. A new test needs an entry there,
  or a line in `internal/guard/mutationcoverage_test.go` saying why it has none.

## What a change has to satisfy

- **The same recipe and the same seed produce the same bytes**, on every
  operating system. Anything that moves the bytes of a generated file is a
  breaking change, because it turns other people's test suites red. It is
  allowed, and it needs a note in the changelog and a version bump, and the
  version is bumped by the maintainer rather than in the pull request.

## What a change has to satisfy

internal/cli/errors.go: 1

283-290: Add a mutation entry and CLI exit-code test for the NeedsSizeError branch.

The EatenError branch now has an entry in entries.py and an exit-code assertion in TestAChainThatCutsAwayWhatItAddedIsRefused. The NeedsSizeError branch (Lines 287-290) has neither. TestAnArchiveSizedByItsContentsRefusesADamageThatChangesTheLength checks recipe.Parse and engine.Plan only. Changing this branch to ExitFormat leaves the suite green.

Add a mutation entry for the recipe-side SizeConflict check.

The existing entry mutates only the engine check. A recipe-side entry would show whether the recipe.Parse assertion catches removal of its separate check.

Proposed entry for `internal/guard/mutation/entries.py`

+    (
+        "the recipe reader reads a length changing damage on an archive sized by its contents",
+        "internal/recipe/damage.go",
+        "\tif sized := t.Damage.SizeConflict(t.SizeFromContents); sized != nil {",
+        "\tif sized := t.Damage.SizeConflict(t.SizeFromContents); false && sized != nil {",
+        "TestAnArchiveSizedByItsContentsRefusesADamageThatChangesTheLength",

Review comment at @internal/recipe/damage.go around lines 205 - 208:
Add a recipe-side mutation entry for the SizeConflict check in the recipe
reader, distinct from the existing engine-check entry. Associate the mutation
with TestAnArchiveSizedByItsContentsRefusesADamageThatChangesTheLength so the
test verifies that recipe.Parse rejects removal of this separate check.
