fix(config): fall back to append merge on non-string keyed candidates#2764santhiprakash wants to merge 2 commits into
Conversation
_detect_keyed_merge_field raised ConfigError as soon as every item in
a table array shared a candidate key (code or id) whose value was
non-string, even when a later candidate (or the safe append fallback)
would have worked. This aborted load_central_config/load_customization
entirely for legal TOML like HTTP-status tables ([{code = 200, ...}])
or numeric-id rosters, a regression vs 6.10's untyped detector.
Restructure the loop so a per-item validation failure (non-string or
empty value) only disqualifies that candidate and moves on to the next
one, falling through to the existing append-merge fallback when no
candidate validates across all items. A candidate whose values are
inconsistently typed among items is still correctly rejected as a
merge key -- it is disqualified and the loop tries the next candidate
instead of silently accepting a mismatched type.
Also updates the build-auto renderer integration test: the malformed
review-layer-id scenario still HALTs cleanly end to end, just through
render_skill.py's own review-layer schema validation instead of the
merge-key detector, since that detector no longer raises.
Fixes bmad-code-org#2721
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe merge-key detector now skips candidates with missing, non-string, or empty values. It continues to later candidates and falls back to append semantics when none qualify. Tests cover candidate selection, append behavior, regression cases, and renderer validation. ChangesKeyed merge fallback
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: ⚪ Minimal · up to The change safely falls back from invalid keyed merges while preserving validation for malformed review-layer IDs. The remaining concern is limited to strengthening one integration-test assertion; no actionable merge-blocking risk remains. Suggested reviewers: 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Assert the full HALT contract.
Line 277 checks only the validation text. A renderer that prints this text but exits successfully or emits a dispatch would pass this test. Assert a non-zero status and no read and follow output.
Proposed fix
- assert(run(keyed).stdout.includes('.id must be a string'), 'non-string id accepted');
+ const result = run(keyed);
+ assert(
+ result.status !== 0 &&
+ result.stdout.includes('.id must be a string') &&
+ !result.stdout.includes('read and follow'),
+ 'non-string id did not HALT cleanly',
+ );📝 Committable suggestion

What
_detect_keyed_merge_fieldinsrc/scripts/config_utils.pyno longer raisesConfigErrorwhen a table-array's shared candidate key (codeorid) has non-string values. Instead, it disqualifies that candidate and tries the next one, falling back to append-merge semantics when no candidate qualifies.Why
Since 6.11.0,
