🌐 Web query:
For Composer 2 root packages, how are duplicate package names in requireandrequire-dev handled during dependency resolution?
💡 Result:
In Composer 2, having the same package name in both the require and require-dev sections of your root composer.json file is not a supported or recommended practice [1]. When a package is listed in both sections, Composer merges the constraints from both [1]. During dependency resolution, the solver must find a single version of the package that satisfies both constraints simultaneously [1]. If the constraints are incompatible—for example, if they require different, non-overlapping version ranges—the dependency resolution will fail, preventing the installation or update of your dependencies [2][1]. Even if the constraints are technically compatible, listing a package in both sections can lead to unexpected behavior and is generally discouraged by the Composer maintainers [2][1]. The composer validate command will often issue a warning if it detects a package required in both sections, noting that this can result in unpredictable outcomes [2]. To ensure stable dependency resolution, it is advised to pick one section for each package—either require (for production and development) or require-dev (for development only)—and list it only once [1].

Reject duplicate voku/agent-loop declarations before merging requirements.
$require + $requireDev keeps the require value for duplicate keys. Composer evaluates both constraints, but this verifier validates only the require value. Reject manifests that declare voku/agent-loop in both sections before selecting its constraint.

What changed
voku/agent-loopas the single direct authority for the siblingagent-*runtime setvoku/simple-php-code-parserdirect because this repository intentionally exercises that packageagent-*constraints and duplicate sibling release fields in replay inputselfformatting diverges and null array-key deprecations surface #101 dogfood workflowsWhy
A historical replay previously injected an older
agent-loopwhile the consumer root independently required a neweragent-kanban, so Composer failed before the workflow could run. The first corrected run then exposed the same problem one layer later: replay metadata expectedagent-session 0.6.0, whileagent-loop 0.16.5legitimately resolved0.6.1through its supported range.The sibling versions are provenance, not a second dependency authority. For byte-for-byte dependency identity, the correct artifact is an exact committed lock file, not copied transitive constraints in Composer plus JSON.
This keeps the replay fail-closed for ownership and package presence while allowing
agent-loop's own Composer contract to own compatibility.Summary by CodeRabbit
