fix(parser): keep a mandatory instruction under a reflexive mode list (#7528) - #7529
Conversation
…phase-rs#7528) "exile another card from a graveyard. When you do, choose one — …" lost its exile. The triggered-modal dispatch keyed the whole reflexive decision on a literal ", you may ", so a mandatory parent classified as "plain triggered modal" and the mode list replaced the trigger's parsed body outright. Cemetery Desecrator exiled nothing in any game state, which left X at 0 and both of its modes inert. CR 118.12 prints the parent two ways — "[Do something]. If [a player] [does] …" and "[A player] may [do something]. If [that player] [does] …" — and CR 603.12's connector reads the same in both. The marker says how the instruction is OFFERED, not whether a reflexive exists, so the connector is what must decide. `classify_reflexive_modal_parent` is now the single authority for that question, and `ReflexivePaymentIr` is parameterized over its parent (`MayPay` / `Mandatory`) instead of assuming a payment. The mandatory arm reuses the chain the trigger parser already lowered — the same path every non-modal reflexive takes today (Bone Rattler, Diregraf Horde, Back for More, Foray of Orcs, Dream Eater) — rather than parsing the same words a second time. Counter-probe: with the `Mandatory` arm removed, `the_mandatory_instruction_before_a_mode_list_is_performed` reads `left: (0, 1)` against `right: (1, 0)` — the card exiles nothing and the fodder stays in the graveyard. Class: 35,795 cards in card-data.json; 410 carry "when you do"; on 7 the connector introduces a mode list. Five have an optional parent and were already correct — Caesar, Legion's Emperor still lowers unchanged. Remaining gaps, both deliberate: - Dialogue Tree, the other mandatory member, is a SORCERY. Its whole line is routed through the TRIGGERED-modal path, so it needs a parent instruction on the non-triggered modal block as well; it is unchanged here. - CR 603.12 suppression is untouched. With every graveyard empty the instruction now runs and exiles nothing, but the reflexive is still created and still asks for a mode, because the engine keeps no record that a mandatory instruction did nothing. That is issue phase-rs#7511's remaining half. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

[HIGH] CR citations misclassify the mandatory … When you do parent as an optional resolution-time cost. Evidence: crates/engine/src/parser/oracle_ir/ast.rs comments and crates/engine/tests/integration/mandatory_reflexive_modal_parent.rs repeatedly cite CR 118.12 for that form, but docs/MagicCompRules.txt:1031 defines CR 118.12 as the If [a player] does/doesn’t/can’t cost-style formulation; docs/MagicCompRules.txt:2658 defines When [a player] does/doesn’t reflexive triggered abilities under CR 603.12. Why it matters: incorrect rules annotations and “cost” claims misdocument the behavior being implemented. Suggested fix: remove or correct each false 118.12/cost claim (retain 603.12 where applicable), then push a new head with current-head CI and parser/parse-diff evidence.

TriggerBodyvariant routes to the plain-modal fallback with no compiler error, and the printed instruction is dropped — the same defect class this PR fixes. Second, the takenVote/Pile/Reflexivebody is discarded rather than preserved, so the instruction is lost for those shapes.

…econd surface
Review findings, both accepted:
- The target-selection arms recorded the prompt and stopped, so the chosen mode
never resolved and the row proved only that a question was asked. Every slot
is now answered with its first legal target, ward is declined (CR 702.21a), and
the driver asserts it reached a settled empty stack.
- `an_impossible_exile_moves_no_card` censused an object that does not exist in
that fixture, so `(0, 0)` held even if nothing resolved. It now carries a
positive reach-guard on the mode choice. That guard passes with or without the
fix by design — it proves the row was reached, not that the fix works.
Also covers the class's second printed surface: the connector may be followed by
an intervening condition before the mode list ("When you do, if you control five
or more …, choose one —"). The Cobra King takes that shape and lost its Cobra
Coil token exactly as Cemetery Desecrator lost its exile. Both cards are what
the CI parse-diff reports as changed.
Not asserted, and unchanged by this PR: The Cobra King's "if you control five or
more Snakes and/or Serpents" gate lands in the modal header and is represented
neither before nor after.
Counter-probe, re-measured against the reworked driver: without the `Mandatory`
arm, `the_mandatory_instruction_before_a_mode_list_is_performed` reads
`left: (0, 1)` against `right: (1, 0)`, and both parser class rows fail.

Reading the current-head evidence you are holding on. Parse-diff at
Dialogue Tree is new since the last artifact and is yours: stripping the terminal connector before ordinary trigger parsing takes the connector out of the trigger name. That card was listed as an untouched gap in the PR body ("its whole line is routed through the triggered-modal path"); the trigger name is now clean even though its parent instruction is still not restored, so the disclosed gap narrows rather than moves. I will correct the PR body if you want that reflected there. Local verification at

Approved for merge queue. Current-head review is clean for ae9ba632449efdbe440f10b5dc97553ed5178f91: the SHA-bound parse-diff reports only Cemetery Desecrator and The Cobra King; Dialogue Tree is absent. The prior requested-changes review targeted obsolete b104f5a3a506fb1cab44b4262ea51d2db8146b4a and its CR-annotation finding is resolved on this head.
