The SDK 585 scrape aborts on gcloud dataplex metadata-jobs create because its nested export/import syntax contains a required option-only colon group. This change uses the matching documented argument constraints for that group and preserves the separate export/import branches, including each branch's required inputs and nested choices.

The shared synopsis helper defers only complete option-only colon groups with exactly one matching documented constraint. Duplicate matches and AtMostOne-only metadata cannot satisfy required colon syntax and still fail. Operands, unrelated required flags, and section boundaries remain intact. The help parser now preserves a constraint heading followed by its first branch heading before the first option; this prevents an export-output flag from becoming a separate outer alternative.

Validation:

  • Reproduced the exact scrape failure with captured official SDK 585 help; all 55 captured-command cases now pass.
  • 374 parser/resource/AWS/kubectl tests and 75 focused group/runtime tests pass (449 total).
  • Compiled generated metadata-job options validate 14 valid/invalid export/import scenarios. Runtime compilation uses the repository's preview C# setting.
  • Scoped formatting passes. Focused group tests ran with one test at a time within the unchanged 2 GB guard.

Refs #5146. Failure evidence: https://github.com/thomhurst/ModularPipelines/actions/runs/35036545680.

Merge sequencing: AWS replacement #5157 was closed for a separate metavariable defect tracked in #5158. Merge this source change and AWS source fix #5159 before regenerating AWS/gcloud from latest main. Keep generator inputs unchanged while replacement generation and validation run.

The compact-colon finding is fixed in remote head 86cfd9b and its thread is resolved. The exact compact form failed before the fix; all 443 focused tests and scoped formatting now pass.

For the docstring percentage warning, these changes add private/internal parser helpers and regression tests, with no new public API. The repository does not require XML comments on those methods. Comments already explain the non-obvious constraint deferral, branch-heading boundaries, and preservation of resource/value grammar; adding boilerplate comments to every test would not clarify those rules.

Review: fix(generator): preserve documented option group branches

This targets the gcloud dataplex metadata-jobs create scrape failure by teaching UsageSynopsisParser/CliArgumentGroupParser to defer required option-only colon groups in the synopsis to their matching documented REQUIRED FLAGS constraint, and to keep a constraint heading attached to its first branch heading. I traced the new fixture (gcloud-dataplex-metadata-jobs-create.txt) through CliArgumentGroupParser.Parse and UsageSynopsisParser.DeferDocumentedOptionGroups/TokenizeOptionGroup against the new tests and didn't find an input in-scope for this PR that produces a wrong result — the export/import branch structure and required-flag preservation look correct for the cases exercised here.

The main risk isn't a bug in this PR's target case, it is that the new matching logic is exact-match/text-pattern based rather than structural, which narrows what future gcloud commands it will handle correctly:

  1. MatchesDocumentedOptionGroup matches by flag-name set equality only (UsageSynopsisParser.cs:1391-1398), with no check that the matched documented group actually encloses the synopsis token it is being deferred for. If a future REQUIRED FLAGS section has two distinct at-least-one groups that happen to share the same flag-name set, DeferDocumentedOptionGroups could silently defer against the wrong group and drop cardinality info instead of failing loudly (today's behavior for an unmatched group). Consider keying the match on group position/ordinal within the documented section rather than pure switch-name equality, so a coincidental name collision cannot cross-match.

  2. MatchesDocumentedOptionGroup only accepts AtLeastOne-flagged groups (line 1394), so a documented group phrased purely as "At most one of these may be specified" (no "at least"/"exactly one" wording) can never satisfy IsDocumentedOptionGroup, and TryParseNestedOperandGroup would still throw "Usage synopsis has unsupported required option-only colon group" for that phrasing — reproducing the same class of scrape failure this PR fixes, just for AtMostOne-only groups. Worth confirming whether AtMostOne groups are in scope for this fix; if so, the flag check on line 1394 needs to allow that kind too (or the PR description should note the phrasing this deliberately excludes).

  3. Recognizing branch headings relies on two independently-maintained heuristicsTryAddNestedPreludeGroup's two-heading lookahead for the first branch (CliArgumentGroupParser.cs:153-178) vs. the unrelated Classify(stack.Peek().Description) == None fallback (line 67) for later branches. These are not expressed as one shared rule, so a future gcloud help variant where a later-branch heading happens to classify as non-None (e.g. it matches AtLeastOne/AtMostOne/Alternative wording) would get silently folded into the previous branch instead of raising a parse error, producing a structurally wrong required-alternative group. A shared helper tying these two checks together (or a test fixture exercising a second/third branch whose heading is itself classifiable) would guard against them drifting apart.

None of these affect the metadata-jobs create case this PR targets — the 55-command regression suite and the new fixture/tests cover that correctly. They are forward-looking gaps in the matching heuristics that will only surface with a future gcloud command; flagging now since this generator logic is meant to generalize per CLAUDE.md's guidance to fix the generator's generic logic rather than one-off cases.

Addressed the three points in #5156 (comment) in 460026b, verified at the remote PR head.

  1. Matching now requires exactly one documented constraint with the option set. Multiple matching groups, including groups with different cardinality, leave the synopsis untouched and retain the existing rejection. The new duplicate-set regression covers that ambiguity; no ordering assumption is introduced.
  2. AtMostOne-only metadata intentionally cannot satisfy a required colon group's minimum cardinality. Accepting it would erase the synopsis requirement rather than preserve it. Added an explicit rejection case and documented this boundary in code and the PR description.
  3. Added a three-branch regression whose second and third headings classify as AtLeastOne and AtMostOne. Both remain separate children of the original exclusive outer group. The existing StartsArgumentGroup check already treats classifiable later headings as new groups; the regression confirms that path works alongside the new first-branch prelude handling.

All 371 parser/resource/AWS/kubectl tests and 75 focused group/runtime tests pass (446 total), including the 14 compiled export/import validation scenarios. Scoped formatting passes. A new CI/review cycle is starting.

Review: fix(generator): preserve gcloud 585 command coverage

This PR fixes the gcloud dataplex metadata-jobs create scrape regression from the previous cycle and addresses all three forward-looking gaps raised in the prior review (ambiguous-match rejection, AtMostOne-only rejection, and the second/third-branch classification regression) at head 86cfd9b1 / 460026b, verified now at 670487dd. Those threads are resolved and the fixes are present in the current diff — the 3-branch regression test and duplicate-flag-set ambiguity test are both in UsageSynopsisParserTests.cs.

One new issue surfaced while tracing the current head:

DeferDocumentedOptionGroups removes a matched token via a content-based string.Replace over the whole synopsis, not a positional removal (UsageSynopsisParser.cs:1353-1361):

foreach (var token in Tokenize(synopsis).Where(token => IsDocumentedOptionGroup(token, groups)))
{
    synopsis = synopsis.Replace(token, " ", StringComparison.Ordinal);
}

Tokenize already gives you the exact start/length span of each top-level token, and IsDocumentedOptionGroup runs per-token. Replacing by content rather than by span means that if the same bracketed text appears more than once in the synopsis — once as a qualifying top-level token and once nested inside a different, non-qualifying bracket expression elsewhere in the same line — Replace blanks out both occurrences, since string.Replace matches every occurrence of the substring, not just the one at the token's own position. That leaves the unrelated group with a dangling (/|/: fragment, which can throw or silently mis-parse a group this PR never intended to touch.

This is narrow for the fixtures exercised today (I couldn't find a case in the current test suite that reproduces it), but it's a latent correctness gap in generic logic that CLAUDE.md asks this generator to get right structurally rather than by pattern-matching. A more robust approach: instead of matching-and-replacing by text, rebuild the synopsis by filtering the tokenized list (drop tokens where IsDocumentedOptionGroup is true) and rejoining with a single space, e.g.

internal static string DeferDocumentedOptionGroups(string synopsis, IReadOnlyList<CliArgumentGroup> groups) =>
    string.Join(' ', Tokenize(synopsis).Where(token => !IsDocumentedOptionGroup(token, groups)));

This removes tokens by identity/position within the tokenized sequence rather than by string content, so a coincidental textual duplicate elsewhere in the synopsis can never be affected. It also drops the now-redundant Replace/mutation-in-loop pattern.

Minor, non-blocking: IsDocumentedOptionGroup (line 1364-1373) calls TokenizeOptionGroup(TrimWrapper(token)) twice — once for ContainsOnlyInlineOptions and once for EnumerateInlineOptionSwitches. Since TokenizeOptionGroup/its nested recursion is the expensive part, computing it once and passing the result to both checks would avoid doubling the tokenization work per synopsis token during every gcloud scrape.

Addressed the latest review (5690733780) in 3f64f6d, verified at the remote PR head. Both orders of a qualifying token and identical text nested inside an unrelated resource group reproduced the corruption before the fix.

Deferral now rebuilds from successive token positions and preserves the original whitespace between tokens, so only the qualifying top-level occurrence is removed. Joining tokens with spaces would lose section/line boundaries; those existing regressions remain intact. The eligibility check also reuses its tokenized group for switch enumeration, addressing the non-blocking duplication finding.

All 374 parser/resource/AWS/kubectl tests and 75 focused group/runtime tests pass (449 total); scoped formatting passes. The previous head's full CI passed. A new CI/review cycle is now running.

Review: fix(generator): preserve documented option group branches

This is the fourth review cycle on this PR. I re-traced the current head (3f64f6d) independently rather than just re-reading prior findings, focusing on the three prior rounds' fixes:

  1. Ambiguous-match rejection (MatchesDocumentedOptionGroup + the single-match count check in IsDocumentedOptionGroup) — confirmed still exact-match-only; the duplicate-set regression (Duplicate_Documented_Option_Sets_Are_Not_Deferred) covers it.
  2. AtMostOne-only rejection — confirmed MatchesDocumentedOptionGroup still requires HasFlag(AtLeastOne), so an AtMostOne-only documented group can never satisfy a required colon group's minimum cardinality; this is intentional and documented in both the code comment and PR description.
  3. Position-based token removal — traced DeferDocumentedOptionGroups (UsageSynopsisParser.cs:1354-1368) by hand: Tokenize yields tokens in strictly increasing source order, and each iteration's IndexOf(token, offset) search starts exactly where the previous token ended, so it can only land on the token's own occurrence (the intervening span is whitespace-only, since Tokenize always skips whitespace between tokens). This correctly fixes the earlier string.Replace-over-duplicated-text bug — a repeated bracketed substring elsewhere in the synopsis is no longer at risk of being blanked.
  4. Sibling branch classification — walked the TryAddNestedPreludeGroup/BeginArgumentGroup interaction against the actual fixture indentation (outer "Exactly one..." heading and its first branch heading both land at the same Indentation value). MoveToContainingGroup alone wouldn't pop out of the first branch when the second branch's declaration arrives at equal indentation, but BeginArgumentGroup's preludeStartsGroup path pops exactly one level before creating the sibling, so the second branch correctly becomes a child of the outer group rather than nested under the first branch. This matches Captured_Metadata_Job_Retains_Nested_Export_Import_Constraints's assertion of exactly 2 children under the operation group.

I didn't find a new correctness gap in the matching/deferral/parsing logic beyond what the last three rounds already surfaced and fixed with regression tests (ClassifiedArgumentGroupTests, the GcloudResourceArgumentTests fixture/negative tests, and the runtime validation matrix in NestedArgumentGroupParsingTests.MetadataJobs.cs). The new test coverage (positive fixture parse, 14-scenario runtime validation, negative "unsupported option-only colon group" regression, duplicate/ambiguous/AtMostOne-only rejection cases, and the 3-branch sibling-classification case) matches the actual risk surface of the change rather than just the happy path.

Per CLAUDE.md, generated options must come from the generator's generic logic, not hand-edits — this PR does that: it fixes CliArgumentGroupParser/UsageSynopsisParser/GcloudCliScraper generically and adds the new fixture only as a regression input, not as a one-off patch to generated output.

I did not execute a local build/test run in this pass (sandbox approval for the dotnet build command wasn't available in this session); the author's reported validation (449 tests, scoped formatting, 14 compiled export/import validation scenarios) combined with the file-level trace above is the basis for this review.

No actionable findings from me at this head.

Validate the settings branch against Type. The test derives operation from the property names, so it never constructs a valid import set with Type = EXPORT or a valid export set with Type = IMPORT. OptionsClassGenerator validates RequiredAlternativeGroups from property presence and does not inspect Type, so either mismatch can pass validation. The generated command metadata and CommandArgumentBuilder then render every populated option, producing both the explicit --type value and the opposite branch's flags. Add both mismatch cases to the regression matrix and make generated validation reject them.

Regarding review 5217688665 (Type/settings mismatch): I checked the captured SDK 585 help and the installed SDK implementation. surface/dataplex/metadata_jobs/create.py:78-108 declares required --type independently from a separate required mutex of settings groups. Its help does not attach a value condition to either group. The Type-to-request binding lives in the imperative api_lib/dataplex/metadata_job.py:26-48 implementation, after argument parsing.

This PR restores the declared argument-group structure and presence constraints. It does not infer command-specific business rules from property prefixes or reimplement SDK request construction. Making generic OptionsClassGenerator special-case Type/IMPORT/EXPORT, or infer that link from similar English headings, would add an unsupported constraint to the generator model and could reject valid commands elsewhere. The runtime test exercises branch presence/requiredness; its selected Type follows the fixture's examples, without claiming cross-value semantic validation.

Keeping the generated validation aligned with the CLI's declared argument constraints. Value-dependent semantic validation needs an explicit, general source contract before the generator can emit it safely; the reported mismatch is outside this parsing fix. The latest Claude review independently reports CLEAR for 3f64f6d.

@coderabbitai Please assess this scope/contract disposition for the outside-diff finding. No source change is proposed for that finding.

@thomhurst, I agree with this disposition.

The captured help defines --type and the required export/import settings group as independent constraints. It does not define a --type value-to-branch constraint. The runtime test correctly verifies the constraints that the generator can derive from the help text.

A generic OptionsClassGenerator must not infer cross-value semantics from option names, section text, or examples. That inference would create an undocumented generator contract and could reject valid command inputs.

The --type to request-branch binding is an SDK implementation rule. It is outside the documented CLI argument-group model that this PR restores. No source change is required for this finding.

Learning: For `gcloud dataplex metadata-jobs create`, the captured gcloud SDK 585 help defines required `--type` independently from a required mutually exclusive export/import settings group. The help text does not define a value-dependent mapping between `--type` values and those settings branches. The OptionsGenerator must preserve documented argument presence and cardinality constraints, but it must not infer command-specific cross-value semantics from option names, prose headings, or examples.
