+Subject: [PATCH 1/2] imptcp: guard regex framing match at line start
+
+Why
+A regex match at the beginning of the receive buffer can form a
+negative message length after oversize-frame recovery.
+
+Impact
+Regex-framed imptcp listeners reject that invalid transition instead
+of submitting a negative message length.
+
+Before/After
+Before: a match with a zero line offset submitted an invalid length.
+After: only a match following an existing line can submit a frame.
+
+Technical Overview
+Mirror the line-offset guard used by the shared imtcp parser.
+Leave existing regex framing and oversize recovery behavior unchanged.

+Subject: [PATCH 2/2] tests: assert imptcp regex oversize diagnostics
+
+Why
+The test called a nonexistent helper, so its diagnostic assertions did not run.
+
+Impact
+The regression test now fails if oversize recovery diagnostics are missing.
+
+Before/After
+Before: missing helper calls silently left the diagnostics unchecked.
+After: supported regex assertions verify both expected diagnostics.
+
+Technical Overview
+Use the testbench content_check helper with its regex option.
+Document the oversize-recovery invariant and clean-shutdown oracle.
+Keep the existing data stream and expected framed output unchanged.
