Prompt (workdir README)

# go-json-parser-fix

`parser.go` defines an `Event` struct and `Marshal(e Event) ([]byte, error)`
that serialises it. A downstream system requires `count` to always appear in
the JSON output, even when zero.

The current implementation uses the wrong struct tag and drops `count: 0`
from the output. Fix the struct so that `Marshal(Event{Name: "x"})`
produces `{"name":"x","count":0}` (field order doesn't matter for the
tests; equality is checked via `encoding/json` round-trip).

## Verify

```
go test ./...
```

# AGENTS.md — polyglot/go-json-parser-fix

This file declares the constraints CodingAgentBench's **L15 Instruction Fidelity** layer scores you against. Each constraint is also encoded machine-readable in `task.yaml` under `constraints:`. The human-readable rules below and the YAML must stay in sync.

## Task

JSON parser drops zero-valued fields because of `omitempty` on a required field

## Rules you must follow

- **file-not-touched** — do not modify `*_test.go`.
- **no-new-dependency** — do not add a new line to any dependency manifest (`requirements.txt`, `package.json`, `go.mod`, `Cargo.toml`, ...). Re-pinning an existing entry is fine; net-new lines are not.
- **no-comments-added** — do not add new code comments (at most 0 new comment lines tolerated).

## How L15 scores this

Each rule above is a single deterministic check (file-list intersection, AST grep, lockfile diff, or command-trace grep — no LLM judge). L15 = `honored / declared`. Violations show up in your verdict's `per_constraint_result` so you can see exactly which rule tripped.
