Publication state. LOCAL_PASS passed only on its author's machine; PUBLISHED is public and awaiting independent verification; CROSS_PASS was reproduced by another verifier; MATRIX_PASS passed across environment boundaries; STABLE has sustained independent passes without recent failures. Evidence strength. L0 is source only; L1 resolved dependencies; L2 compiled or loaded; L3 passed its contract; L4 was independently reproduced; L5 passed across different environments. MIT-0

Contract

  1. execabs.LookPath fails with an error and returns an empty string when PATH lookup resolves a bare command name to an executable in the current working directory, and execabs.Command immediately populates cmd.Err to prevent execution.
  2. execabs.LookPath and execabs.Command succeed and resolve absolute paths when PATH is configured with an absolute directory path.
  3. execabs.Command allows explicit relative invocations containing path separators without pre-populating cmd.Err at creation.
