Preserve omission and reject explicit null values.
licenses is optional, but a present value must be a non-empty array with one object containing expression. The generated JSON and YAML decoders can accept licenses: null and a null tuple item because nil values bypass the array and required-field checks. Update the generator to distinguish omitted fields from explicit null and reject null for these non-nullable schemas. Add JSON and YAML cases for licenses: null and licenses: [null].

Real, and since addressed elsewhere rather than here. Telling an omitted property from one present with an explicit null needs the raw map decoded before unmarshalling, which is what --validate-null-types does in #627. This PR is the tuple-form parse fix, so I would rather not grow it into presence tracking. Happy to close this as covered by #627 if you agree.

Property names are schema data, not Go identifiers, so they can contain
characters that are unsafe to drop into generated source. They were
interpolated raw into both map keys and error messages:
out.Printlnf(`if _, ok := %s["%s"]; ...`, varNameRawMap, v.jsonName)
out.Printlnf(`return fmt.Errorf("field %s in %s: required")`, v.jsonName, ...)
A schema declaring `{"a\"b": {...}}` as required therefore generated
if _, ok := raw["a"b"]; raw != nil && !ok {
return fmt.Errorf("field a"b in Foo: required")
which does not compile. A backslash does the same by way of an invalid
escape (`raw["back\slash"]`), and a percent sign survives compilation but
is read by fmt as a verb, so the message prints `%!s(MISSING)`.
Map keys now use `%q`. Message text goes through `goStringText`, which
escapes for a Go string literal and doubles `%` so fmt leaves it alone;
the message itself is unchanged, since putting the name in an argument
would have rewritten every generated error in the repository.
Both are byte-for-byte identity for ordinary names: **no existing golden
file changes.** Output differs only where it was previously broken.
`tests/data/core/propertyNameEscaping` covers a quote, a backslash, a
percent and an ordinary name. It is a golden fixture, so the generated
file is compiled by the test module — which is the actual regression
guard here, since the symptom is a file that does not build.

…ck can't break
The previous commit escaped property names for map keys and error
messages but left the struct tags interpolating them raw. Those failures
are quieter than a compile error:
AB string `json:"a"b" ...` // reflect reads back `a`
BackSlash string `json:"back\slash" ...` // reflect reads nothing
A tag value is parsed with `strconv.Unquote`, so an unescaped quote
truncates it and an unescaped backslash makes the whole tag unparseable —
`reflect` then reports the tag as absent and `encoding/json` silently
falls back to the Go field name. Both compile, because the tag list sits
in a raw string literal where those characters are ordinary.
Tag values now go through the same escaping as the rest, split out as
`goQuotedBody` since a tag is not a format string and must not have its
`%` doubled.
A backtick is the one character that cannot be escaped inside a raw
string literal, and a property name carrying one produced a file that did
not compile at all. `StructField.Generate` now emits the tag list as an
interpreted literal when it contains a backtick; reflect reads either
form identically.
`tests/property_name_escaping_test.go` reads all three tags back with
reflect for each case, because compiling the fixture proves none of this.
Found by CodeRabbit on omissis#627, omissis#633, omissis#634 and omissis#636.
`arrayValidator` spliced the property name straight into the message, so
an array named `a"b` emitted
return fmt.Errorf("field %s length: must be >= %d", "a"b", 1)
which does not compile.
For a nested array the name was also spliced into a *format string* —
`fmt.Sprintf("name[%d]", i1)` — where a `%` in the name would have been
read as a verb. It is now passed as an argument instead,
`fmt.Sprintf("%s[%d]", "name", i1)`, so only Go-literal escaping is
needed and a percent can never be misread. The message produced at
runtime is unchanged; three goldens change in how it is constructed.

Escaping made the tag syntactically intact and readable by `reflect`, but
`encoding/json` applies its own rules to a tag NAME and silently ignores
one it will not accept. Measured on Go 1.25:
AB string `json:"a\"b"`
BackSlash string `json:"back\\slash"`
decode {"a\"b":"x","back\\slash":"y"} -> AB:"", BackSlash:""
encode AB:"x", BackSlash:"y" -> {"a":"x","back":"y"}
Decoding does not match and encoding emits a truncated key, so `a"b`
round-trips as `a`. No amount of escaping helps: the limitation is in what
the codec accepts, not in how the tag is written. Carrying such a name
would need the field taken out of the default codec and a generated
`MarshalJSON` to put it back — a feature, not a fix.
So the schema is refused, mirroring encoding/json's own `isValidTag`.
Nothing regresses by it: before this series such a name generated source
that did not compile at all.
The escaping stays, because it is still load-bearing for names the codec
*does* accept — `%` is a legal tag character and must be doubled where the
name reaches a format string, and the punctuation set has to survive
verbatim. The fixture now covers those and a `.FAIL.json` covers the
refusal.
`TestPropertyNameEscapingJSONRoundTrip` is the assertion reflect could not
make: a tag being intact says nothing about the codec using it.
Found by CodeRabbit on omissis#623 and omissis#640.
In draft-07 the `dependencies` keyword is dual-form: each value is either a
schema (a schema dependency) or an array of property names (a property
dependency, split out as `dependentRequired` in 2019-09).
`Type.UnmarshalJSON` modelled only the schema form, decoding the whole map
into `map[string]*Type`. Any array-valued entry therefore failed the parse
outright with:
failed to unmarshal type: json: cannot unmarshal array into Go value of
type schemas.ObjectAsType
which is why SchemaStore's `github-workflow.json` could not be generated at
all — its `definitions/step` declares `dependencies` for `shell` and
`working-directory` in the array form.
Decode the map lazily into `json.RawMessage` and route each entry by shape:
arrays populate the already-existing `DependentRequired` field (section
6.5.4), schemas continue to populate `DependentSchemas` exactly as before.
Neither field is consumed during code generation, so this is a parse-level
change only and no generated output moves.

Schema.UnmarshalJSON decoded the root straight into its embedded ObjectAsType, so none of Type.UnmarshalJSON's pre-processing ran at the root. Dual-form `dependencies` at the root, for one, never reached DependentRequired or DependentSchemas: both forms were silently dropped there, while the same keyword in a subschema was routed. Decode the root's keywords through Type and keep only what belongs to the root itself: the $id/id fallback, and the definitions. Type already folds the legacy `definitions` into $defs; at the root they move across to Schema, whose field shadows Type's, rather than leave a second copy. One side effect, deliberate: a root with no type keywords at all - only ids and definitions - now decodes to an empty type rather than none, so its definitions generate. Before, that depended on whether the root happened to declare $schema, a title or a description, any of which already allocated the type.
In draft-07 `items` is dual-form: either a single schema applied to every
element, or a tuple — an array of schemas matched positionally.
`ObjectAsType` models only the single-schema form (`Items *Type`), so any
tuple failed the parse outright with:
failed to unmarshal type: json: cannot unmarshal array into Go value of
type schemas.ObjectAsType
CycloneDX's `bom-1.6.schema.json` hits this at
`definitions/licenseChoice/oneOf/1`, which declares a tuple of exactly one,
and so cannot be generated at all.
Parsing: lift a tuple out of the raw object before decoding into
ObjectAsType and stash it on the new `TupleItems` field. The map round-trip
is only paid when a tuple is actually present.
Generation: a one-element tuple — the common "tuple of exactly one" idiom,
usually paired with minItems/maxItems 1 — maps cleanly onto that element's
type, so the array is generated as a properly typed slice. A heterogeneous
tuple has no faithful Go slice representation, so it warns and falls back to
an untyped array rather than inventing positional semantics. `additionalItems`
is not otherwise enforced.
No existing fixture uses tuple items, so no generated output moves.
With this, CycloneDX 1.6 generates 172 types that compile clean.
A tuple can be closed two ways: `maxItems` equal to the tuple length, or
`additionalItems: false`. `tupleIsClosed` accepts both — but only the
first carries a length the array validator knows about.
So `{"items": [A], "additionalItems": false}` collapsed to `[]A` with
nothing capping it. The schema admits one element; the generated type
decoded `["a", "b"]` without complaint.
`effectiveMaxItems` derives the cap from the tuple when the schema states
it through `additionalItems` instead of `maxItems`. It applies to the
heterogeneous case too: `[A, B]` with `additionalItems: false` still has
no faithful Go representation and stays an untyped array, but its length
is knowable and now enforced.
An open tuple is untouched — it constrains position 0 and permits any
number of further elements, so there is no cap to emit.
Found by CodeRabbit on omissis#633, where this branch's code appears in the
cumulative diff.
`effectiveMaxItems` returned `MaxItems` whenever it was set, before considering the tuple. A schema declaring `items: [A]` with `additionalItems: false` and `maxItems: 3` therefore capped the generated slice at 3, although the tuple admits one element — the collapse to `[]A` had already happened, so the two extra elements had nothing rejecting them. Both keywords cap the array, so the tighter one wins. Found by CodeRabbit on omissis#636, against the fix in the previous commit.
`effectiveMaxItems` returned a bare int, so a maximum of zero was indistinguishable from no maximum and the caller skipped the validator. `items: [], additionalItems: false` leaves every element "additional", and additionalItems forbids them, so the schema admits only the empty array. The generated model accepted any array at all. Presence is now returned alongside the value, and `arrayValidator` gains `maxItemsSet` so it can express a cap of zero. For every schema that states its maximum through `maxItems`, presence is exactly `MaxItems != 0` as before, so no existing golden moves. Found by CodeRabbit on omissis#624, against the two commits above.
The zero-item fix treated `additionalItems: false` as closing the tuple
without checking that `items` was a tuple at all. With a single-schema
`items` that left `tupleMax` at zero and reported a maximum of zero, so
{"items": {"type": "string"}, "additionalItems": false}
emitted `if len(plain.Tags) > 0` and rejected every element.
`additionalItems` only has meaning alongside the tuple form (draft-07
§6.4.2); beside a single schema it applies to nothing. `TupleItems` is
non-nil exactly when the tuple form was parsed, which also keeps
`items: []` — a closed tuple of zero members, where a cap of zero is
correct — distinguishable from `items: {...}`.
Found by CodeRabbit on omissis#624, omissis#627 and omissis#633, against the previous commit.
`null` is not a schema, but only the tuple form was inspected before the regular decode, so `items: null` fell through to it and landed in `Items` as nil — indistinguishable from an absent `items`. An invalid schema therefore generated a silently unconstrained array. Rejected with `ErrNullNotASchema`, the same way `items: [null]` and `dependencies: null` already are in this file. `tupleItemsNull.FAIL.json` covers it. Found by CodeRabbit on omissis#627 (2026-09-12); missed in earlier triage because I filtered comments by date rather than by whether the thread was resolved.
The root was decoded straight into its embedded type, bypassing the tuple handling Type.UnmarshalJSON gives every subschema: a root tuple failed the whole parse with the very error this change exists to remove, and a root `items: null` decoded to nil without reaching any check, so the schema silently generated an unconstrained array. The root now decodes through Type - fixed beneath this layer, together with the dual-form `dependencies` it also skipped - so both hold there too; these tests pin it. A root tuple generates a named array type, whose length constraints are not enforced at the root. That is a separate, pre-existing gap shared by every named array type.
`$ref` resolution did a flat map lookup on the definitions of a schema:
// TODO: Support nested definitions.
def, ok = schema.Definitions[defName]
`extractRefNames` strips the `#/definitions/` (or `#/$defs/`) prefix and hands
over everything after it, so a pointer that descends further — say
`#/definitions/Foo/properties/bar` — arrives as the key
`Foo/properties/bar`, which is not in the map, and generation fails with
"definition does not exist in schema".
Real schemas do this. SchemaStore's `github-workflow.json` refs
`#/definitions/workflowDispatchInput/properties/options`, addressing a property
subschema rather than a definition.
Walk the pointer instead. Each step after the first is a keyword naming the
container to descend into, followed by a name or index where that keyword holds
a collection:
- single schema: additionalProperties, additionalItems, not
- by name: properties, patternProperties, definitions, $defs
- by index: allOf, anyOf, oneOf
- dual-form: items, positional when an index follows, otherwise the
single-schema form, which may end the path
Only keywords whose values are schemas are traversable; anything else is
rejected rather than silently resolving to the wrong node. JSON Pointer escapes
are decoded (`~1` then `~0`, in that order, so `~01` yields `~1`).
Generated names drop the structural keywords, so
`Foo/properties/bar` names a type after the definition and the property rather
than after the plumbing between them.
No existing fixture uses a nested pointer, so no generated output moves.
…members Two gaps in the reference-path walk, both found by CodeRabbit on omissis#635. `dependencies` was not in the keyword switch, so `#/definitions/Holder/dependencies/needsFlag` failed outright with "unsupported keyword in reference path". Draft-07 `dependencies` is dual-form and the schema form already parses into `DependentSchemas`, so both that spelling and the 2019-09 `dependentSchemas` now resolve there. A property-name dependency parses into `DependentRequired` instead — it is not a schema, so a reference into it still finds nothing, which is correct. Percent-escapes were not undone. A JSON Pointer carried in a URI fragment is percent-encoded (RFC 6901 §6), so `#/definitions/Holder/properties/first%20name` looked up the literal member `first%20name` and reported the definition as missing. The fragment is now unescaped once, at the URI layer, before the pointer is split on `/` — ordering that matters, since the pointer escapes `~1`/`~0` are a separate layer applied per segment afterwards. No existing golden changes; both paths previously failed generation outright rather than producing different output.
`refPathTypeName` dropped every structural keyword, so `#/definitions/Wrapper/items` was named `Wrapper` — the definition it lives inside. The two collided, and the items schema was emitted as `Wrapper_1` with a "multiple types map to the name" warning. A structural keyword is noise only when a name or index follows it: `Wrapper/properties/foo` is identified by `foo`, and `Choice/oneOf/1` by `1`. When the keyword is the last segment it is carrying the information itself — `items`, `additionalProperties`, `additionalItems` and `not` hold a single schema with nothing after them — so it is kept. `nestedRefsArray` already covered this shape and now generates `WrapperItems` with no collision. It is the only golden that moves. Found by CodeRabbit on omissis#636.
`refPathTypeName` dropped any segment whose text matched a structural keyword. A member can legitimately be *named* `items`, and text matching cannot tell that from the keyword, so the name was dropped: `Foo/properties/items/properties/bar` and `Foo/properties/bar` both came out as `FooBar` and collided. The walk is positional now. The first segment names a definition; after that the path alternates between a keyword and its argument, and consuming the argument in the same step means it is never examined as a keyword. A collection keyword (`properties`, `definitions`, `oneOf`, `dependencies`, …) is dropped in favour of the name or index that follows and identifies the subschema; one holding a single schema (`additionalProperties`, `not`, a bare `items`) is kept, because nothing follows it to do the naming. This supersedes the previous commit's rule, which only kept a keyword that was the last segment — enough for `Wrapper/items`, not for a member named `items` in the middle of a path. One golden moves: `dependencies` now reads like `properties`, so `HolderDependenciesNeedsFlag` becomes `HolderNeedsFlag`. Found by CodeRabbit on omissis#625.
`refPathTypeName`'s positional walk consumed whatever followed `items`, but the single-schema form takes no argument and can be followed by a further keyword. `Wrapper/items/properties/bar` therefore swallowed `properties` as if it were `items`' argument and produced `WrapperPropertiesBar` instead of `WrapperItemsBar`. Decided the same way `resolveRefPath` decides it — the next segment is consumed only when it parses as an index — so the naming walk and the resolution walk agree on which form they are looking at. Found by CodeRabbit on omissis#627, omissis#633 and omissis#636, against the previous commit.
`nestedRefs.json` already declares `Holder` and `nestedRefsArray.json` already declares `Wrapper`, and every fixture in this directory generates into one Go package — so the fixtures added alongside the `$ref`-path fixes redeclared both and the tests module stopped compiling. Worth noting `go test ./tests` does not catch this: it only builds the data packages an assertion imports. `go vet ./...` from `tests/` does, and so does CI.

the container to descend into, followed by a name or index where that keyword
holds a collection:
additionalProperties,additionalItems,notproperties,patternProperties,definitions,$defsallOf,anyOf,oneOfitems— positional when an index follows, otherwise the single-schema form, which may end the pathOnly keywords whose values are schemas are traversable; anything else is
rejected rather than silently resolving to the wrong node. JSON Pointer escapes
are decoded,
~1before~0, so~01yields~1rather than/.Generated names drop the structural keywords, so
Foo/properties/barnames atype after the definition and the property —
FooBar— rather than after theplumbing between them.
Verification
go test ./...andgo test ./...intests/pass. No existing fixtureuses a nested pointer, so no generated output moves.

This only fixes resolution. It does not attempt to model everything such a
pointer can reach —
jobsin that schema is stillmap[string]interface{},which is a separate composition limitation.
Note
if/then/elseare absent from the traversal becauseschemas.Typedoes not currently carry those fields; they would slot in trivially if it ever
does.
Note on the diff
This branch is stacked on #623 and #624, so the diff also shows those two
commits (the
dependenciesand tuple-itemsparser fixes). This PR’s ownchange is the third commit and is logically independent — a different part of
the loader. Once those merge, this narrows to just its own three files. Happy to
rebase it directly onto
maininstead if you would rather review themseparately.
