Minesweeper First-Click Safe Rule
Bounded game convention/reference only; does not run an omitted strategy or solver.
Description
Minesweeper First-Click Safe Rule: look up a supported built-in reference entry.
First-click protection is an implementation rule rather than a property of every Minesweeper board.
This tool returns a built-in reference entry for an exact supported selector. The supported entries and their scope are part of the tool; no website or current external table is queried.
When to use this tool
Use this tool when the supplied inputs match the specific operation described above and you need a repeatable result under its stated convention.
- Check the supported input and output contract against an existing calculation or observation.
- Use the complete example to confirm units, selector spelling and result interpretation.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter every field in the input table using the stated units and the exact supported selector spelling where applicable.
- Run the tool. Correct input errors before interpreting an output.
- Read the result fields below; use accompanying flags and the stated sign, boundary or model convention when interpreting a number.
Accept implementation-dependent and return the built-in first-click caveat.1
| Input field | Meaning and units | Accepted input |
|---|---|---|
| context | Context. | Exact value: "implementation-dependent" |
| context | Built-in entry |
|---|---|
| "implementation-dependent" | First-click protection is implementation-specific; do not assume a mined click will be relocated. |
| Output field | Interpretation |
|---|---|
| result | Object containing the following named result fields. |
| result.reference | The stored entry for the exact selected key; its type may be text, a number or a list. |
{
"input": {
"context": "implementation-dependent"
},
"output": {
"result": {
"reference": "First-click protection is implementation-specific; do not assume a mined click will be relocated."
}
}
}Limitations and assumptions
- The tool does not inspect a board or guarantee that a clicked mine will be moved.
- Every declared field is required and unexpected fields are rejected. Numeric inputs must be finite; input errors are distinct from a valid false result or an explicitly qualified output.
- Extremely large inputs and nonfinite or excessively large outputs are rejected. List positions reported by the tool use zero-based indices unless stated otherwise.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Check the underlying observations, units and conventions independently before using the result in a larger workflow. The tools listed below address nearby tasks; compare their inputs and scope before substituting one for this operation.
