R2E: complete prompt reference

Read the pipeline walkthrough first. This reference contains the exact retained templates and the owned code that adds runtime instructions, substitutes variables, builds user messages and selects output schemas. Templates alone are not the final request.

The configured llm is used at each model call; roles do not imply different models. Resolved requests are stored as *.request.json beside model receipts in the campaign, outside learner-visible bundles. See the prompt and evidence guide.

Source hash covers the original file; trailing whitespace is omitted below.

Read specification_prompt.md
You are a python programming expert who is refining docstrings in existing programs.
You will be given a python function in a python file with an existing (possibly underspecified) docstring with corresponding unit tests
for the function and optionally some input output examples extracted from the unittest in a serialized format.
Your goal is refine the associated docstring by making it more informative, precise and complete without adding verbosity or detailed programming logic to the docstring.
The docstring should particularly describe the format and types of the expected inputs and output as well as the behavior of the function.
You will return the function definition, docstring enclosed in markdown code delimiters.
The docstrings must be formatted in the google docstring format and examples should be added if the clarify the function and look helpful without being very long.
Do not guess outputs for functions but only copy the expected outputs as provided.
Finally, do not throw away existing details from the docstrings and only insert content you are sure about.
Do NOT have repeated content in the docstring and ONLY describe the high level function behaviour without going into implementation details.

test_prompt.md

Source: src/repo2rlenv/pipelines/recipes/r2e/test_prompt.md · SHA-256 2a5907ce6231a0dcaa3ec3f49d428383b5e8bbb28b80013f20970da1fa393c9d

Source hash covers the original file; trailing whitespace is omitted below.

Read test_prompt.md
You are a python programming expert who was hired to write tests for python functions.
You will be given a python function in a python file and you will write a complete test that covers the function and all the different corner cases.
You can assume a compiled reference implementation of the function is available, and hence do not need to predict the expected output of the function.
That is, the test you write will use the reference implementation to generate the expected output.

Additional Guidelines:
1. Assume the function provided is correct and hence the test should focus on the behavior that is defined by the function ONLY.
2. Ensure that the tests align with the function's expected input types, avoiding scenarios that the function is not designed to handle.
3. Completely avoid testing with invalid input types or values, testing for error handling, and checking `assertRaises`.
4. Set a fixed random seed in tests involving randomness to ensure consistent and reproducible results when necessary.
5. Avoid mocking calls to APIs or functions (e.g., builtins.open) when actual implementations are simple, accessible, and their use does not compromise the test's isolation or determinism.
6. Particularly, avoid mocking calls to any file I/O APIs, and instead try to create temporary files and directories for testing purposes.

You will return the test for that function and NOT return anything except for the test.
Put your fixed test program within code delimiters, for example:
```python
# YOUR CODE HERE
```
