Description
Remove irrelevant events from a failing trace while retaining declared prerequisites and replay evidence. Reduce the trace while preserving the same reproducible failure. Requires a replay function. Closure 1-minimality is not a global minimum or proof of root cause.

Could you build this?
Partial The concept uses delta-debugging or trace-minimization algorithms (like ddmin) with custom closure-preserving logic over replayable execution traces, requiring non-trivial program analysis theory beyond typical prompt-based coding.
What it would actually take: Requires an engine implementing automated delta-debugging algorithms (such as hierarchical delta debugging or dependency-aware trace reduction) integrated with deterministic replay harness execution. Developers need expertise in formal methods, program analysis, and compiler/runtime debugging tools to parse event logs and safely prune dependencies while enforcing reproducible failure criteria.
