Formula with an escaped quote passes validation but fails at run time
BlueprintValidationError: Scenario validation failed - 2 problem(s)
Verified 2026-09-30 · Confirmed by 0 builders · Trust 50/100
Cause
Make formula string literals have no escape characters. A backslash before a quote does not produce a quote; the quote ends the string and the formula cannot be parsed. Static validation does not catch it, only a live run does.
Fix
Keep quote characters out of formula strings. To match text that contains quotes, use a regex with \W or . where the quote would be.
Apply
Regex pattern intent\W+([a-z]+) instead of a pattern that contains an escaped quote.
