INFERENCE-INIT-05: Tighten with --infer-bounds (planned — currently a no-op)

What it demonstrates

Section titled “What it demonstrates”

–infer-bounds is accepted but currently a no-op: it is parsed yet never read, so it does not (yet) tighten the value ladder with numeric min/max or string pattern bounds — a planned future phase.

Builds on: INFERENCE-INIT-02: Read the inferred contract

How it’s done

Section titled “How it’s done”

A terminal session: the command as you’d run it, followed by the output it prints; trailing comments note the exit status.

Terminal window
markdown-contract init ./notes --infer-bounds
# PLANNED / NO-OP. --infer-bounds is parsed (src/cli/run.ts → InferOptions.inferBounds)
# but is NEVER READ in src/declarative/infer.ts — numeric min/max and string pattern
# inference is a future phase. The flag is currently accepted as a no-op: the output is
# byte-identical to a plain `init ./notes` (verified by diffing the two runs). It does
# NOT yet add min/max or pattern bounds to the inferred schema.

Surfaces exercised

Section titled “Surfaces exercised”
  • InferOptions.inferBounds (flag parsed in src/cli/run.ts)
  • inferFieldSchema value ladder (min/max/pattern NOT inferred — planned future phase)
