…ishing the corpus `conflicts`, `overrides`, `required_if` and `required_unless` — the last seven vectors. **The Go implementation now answers all 152 the corpus has**, and the suite asserts nothing was skipped so that stays a measurement rather than a claim. These are separate from post.go because each needs a *second* entry to answer at all: a name in the declaration has to be resolved to the entry it refers to first, and that happens where the whole command is visible rather than per parse. The tables carry resolved keys, so nothing downstream searches by name. `overrides` is the odd one and is applied first, before anything fills from `env` or `default`. It asks which of two flags came last, which only the arriving tokens know — and a flag that lost is not merely unset. Refilling it from the environment afterwards would leave both standing and undo the last-one-wins the user asked for by typing the second one, which is exactly what `overrides-loser-is-not-refilled-from-env` pins. The relationship is symmetric however it was declared. `--file overrides --stdin` establishes the pair; it does not mean `--file` wins. The corpus is pointed about this: with `--file` declaring it and `--stdin` typed last, `--file` is the one that loses, and a test says so in those words. `conflicts` asks only whether a flag *has* a value, never how it got one, so a value from the environment counts on both sides — two vectors cover the one-sided and the neither-side-typed cases. Unlike `overrides`, it is a mistake to report rather than an order to resolve, and the error carries both names because either alone reads as a puzzle: which flag is unwelcome depends on what else was given. `required_if` has no corpus vector and is implemented anyway, since it is the mirror of `required_unless` and the emitter will have to carry it either way. It is tested here rather than left to be discovered. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

Two ways a relationship could name a flag and silently resolve to nothing, both of which usage-lib resolves and enforces. An inherited global. `conflicts="--quiet"` on a subcommand's flag, where `--quiet` is a root global, was searched for only among that subcommand's own flags — so the key was dropped and the rule was never enforced, while usage-lib reports `Invalid flag --loud: conflicts with --quiet` for the same spec. The search now goes through the command's own flags first and then any ancestor's globals, which is the scope a token has and in the same order, so a subcommand redeclaring an inherited name shadows it here exactly as it does at parse time. A flag that is *not* global still resolves to nothing from below, which is the other half and is tested. A negation. `conflicts="--no-color"` names the `color` flag, and usage-lib reports the conflict whichever of the two spellings was typed — the relationship is between entries rather than tokens, which is what this key model already assumes. Checked both ways round rather than inferred from the error message, since the message quotes the declared string either way. mise's own spec has no relationship that names anything non-local, so the checked-in tables do not change. That is worth stating rather than leaving to be inferred from an empty diff: the hole was real and simply unreachable from the one large spec in the repository, which is exactly the kind of gap a fixture cannot be relied on to find.

…, and match the form Three review findings, all of them cases where this enforced something usage-lib does not. Each was checked against it rather than reasoned about, and each turned out to be real. A default did not count as given. `isSet` treated any source but `Unset` as present, so a defaulted flag conflicted with every partner anyone typed. usage-lib says otherwise: with `--file` defaulted and only `--stdin` given, a declared conflict does not fire. The command line and the environment are the user saying something; a default is a fallback. `Source.Given` is that distinction, named so the next caller does not have to rediscover it. An override loser was still judged. It was cleared from the bindings but `Check` still ran on it, so a `required` loser failed as `missing_required_flag` — undoing the last-one-wins the user asked for by typing the other flag. usage-lib skips overridden flags in the requirement pass, and a loser is now out of the running entirely rather than merely absent. A relationship resolved through the wrong form. `--q` reached the short `-q` and `-color` reached the long `--color`, because the dashes were stripped before matching. usage-lib resolves neither, so this had a generated CLI enforcing a rule the reference does not — the same failure mode as the two above, from the opposite direction. The form is part of the name now: `--x` matches long forms and the negation, `-x` matches shorts, and an undashed word matches the name the spec gives. A declaration naming the wrong form is a typo, and the useful failure is the rule not existing rather than a rule nobody wrote. Also corrects the README's vector count, which said 152 while the corpus this branch runs against has 154. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

…udging it
The `Source.Given` fix in the commit before this one was half right, and the
missing half was a regression it introduced: excluding defaults made a *defaulted
entry* fall into the conditional-requirement path and be reported missing, even
though its default had already filled it.
Both halves checked against usage-lib, because getting this backwards is silent
in either direction:
--file defaulted, required_unless="--stdin", nothing typed → ok
--stdin defaulted, --file required_unless="--stdin" → --file missing
--stdin defaulted, --file conflicts="--stdin", --file typed → ok
So a default counts for the entry being judged — it has a value, it is not
missing — and does not count for the partners judging it, which are asking what
the user said. `CheckRelationships` now takes the whole `Source` rather than a
predicate, because a caller collapsing it into a yes or no gets one of the two
wrong whichever way it chooses, and this way the choice lives in the library
beside the reasoning.
Also compares a negation as the spec wrote it. `negate="-no-color"` is a form
nobody can type as `--no-color`, and usage-lib does not resolve a relationship
naming the latter to the flag declaring the former — so the parse table's bare
spelling, which the parser needs, is the wrong thing to match a declaration
against. The raw form is kept alongside for that.
