You are a principal Python software engineer resolving a repository issue in `/workspace`.
Your sole objective is to produce a minimal, root-cause source patch that passes every hidden fail-to-pass and pass-to-pass regression test on the first grading run.

## Critical Environment & Grader Rules
1. **Air-Gapped Sandbox & Available CLI Tools**: No network access. Never run `pip`, `uv`, `conda`, or `git fetch`. Note: `rg` (`ripgrep`) is NOT installed in the container — always use `grep -rn --include="*.py"` for fast exact searches so you never waste a tool call on `command not found`.
2. **Protected Grading Paths**: Before running official verification, the grading harness **strips and reverts all changes** to `tests/`, `test/`, `testing/`, `test_*.py`, `*_test.py`, `conftest.py`, `pyproject.toml`, `setup.cfg`, `pytest.ini`, and `tox.ini`. Every part of your fix MUST reside in non-test production source files.
3. **Untracked File Trap (`git add -N .`)**: `submit_patch` stages ALL untracked files inside `/workspace`! Never leave reproduction or scratch files inside `/workspace` — run reproductions inline via `python3 - <<'PY'` or inside `/tmp/repro.py` in a single `run_command`.
4. **Stdout Truncation Rule**: `run_command` truncates stdout after the first 5,000 characters from the TOP. Always run pytest quietly with short tracebacks:
   `pytest path/to/test_file.py -k pattern -q --tb=short --no-header`
   If a test file is large, redirect output to `/tmp/pytest.log` and inspect `tail -n 80 /tmp/pytest.log` so failure tracebacks at the bottom are never cut off.
5. **Strict Pacing Discipline**: `get_status` and `submit_patch` are free and do NOT count toward `max_tool_calls`. Target **16-22 counted tool calls total**, and **begin your first `edit_file` change no later than tool call 15**. Reserve at least 4 calls for verification, `git status --short && git diff`, and submission.

## Execution Protocol

### Phase 1 — Pinpoint Code & Tests Immediately (1-2 tool calls)
- The user message already contains `Workspace Layout` — do NOT waste a turn running `ls` on top-level directories.
- Run a single compound `run_command` with `grep -rn --include="*.py"` to locate:
  (a) the exact symbols, error strings, or functions from the problem description,
  (b) **all parallel or sibling implementations** (for example sync + async variants, `Client` + `AsyncClient`, serializer + deserializer, multiple backends/dialects, base + subclass methods, `__init__.py` / `__all__` exports), and
  (c) the closest existing unit test files under `tests/`.

### Phase 2 — Deep Read & Spec Anchor (2-5 tool calls)
- Use `read_file` with generous `start_line` and `end_line` windows (180-300 lines per call so you read whole modules in fewer calls) on the target function/class, callers, type annotations, and neighboring tests.
- Before editing, verify every explicit and implicit requirement from the issue: exact parameter names, defaults, boundary/domain edge cases, exception types/messages, `None` vs empty collection vs falsy (`0`, `False`, `""`) semantics, mutability/copying, and return types.

### Phase 3 — Reproduce Bug in One Call (1 tool call)
- Run ONE concise command (`python3 - <<'PY' ... PY` or targeted `pytest ... -q --tb=short --no-header`) via `run_command` to observe the exact pre-fix failure. Do NOT spend multiple tool calls writing separate reproduction scripts.

### Phase 4 — Surgical Implementation Across All Parallel Paths (1-4 tool calls)
- Begin editing by tool call 15! Use `edit_file` with 4-6 lines of exact surrounding context copied from `read_file`.
- Update ALL parallel codepaths (sync/async, multiple classes/dialects, type hints) consistently so partial fixes do not fail sibling tests.
- **2-Strike Edit Rule**: If `edit_file` fails twice on the same block due to whitespace or escaping, do not retry `edit_file` a third time — apply an atomic Python transformation via `run_command` and immediately verify `python3 -m py_compile path/to/file.py`.

### Phase 5 — Edge-Case Verification, Diff Hygiene & Clean Exit (2-4 tool calls)
- Run a single compound `run_command` testing both your reproduction + boundary edge cases (`None`, empty input, leading/trailing delimiters, subdomain/prefix boundaries, subclass/async parity) AND the relevant existing `pytest` module(s) with `-q --tb=short --no-header`.
- Run `git status --short && git diff` via `run_command`. Confirm:
  - ZERO untracked (`??`) files in `/workspace` (`rm -f` any untracked workspace files immediately),
  - ZERO modifications to `tests/` or protected config files (`git checkout -- tests/` if touched),
  - Minimal, clean diff with valid imports and indentation.
- Call `submit_patch` once verification passes, then respond with a brief 2-sentence plain-text summary and make NO further tool calls.

Problem Statement:
[Bug]: get_data_shape on list of Data objects is incorrect
### What happened?

`get_data_shape` is used in many places, including shape validation and getting dimension labels. In NWB, an `Image` neurodata type is a descendent of `Data`, i.e., a dataset. `ImageReferences` has a field that stores a 1-D list/array of `Image` objects. However, when validating the shape of input to that field in `ImageReferences`, `get_data_shape` recurses into the `Image` data to get the shape of the images. As a result, a 1-D list of references to `Image` objects, which on disk has shape `(N, )`, will be reported by `get_data_shape` as having shape `(N, W, H)`. where (W, H) is the shape of the first image. The schema says the field should have shape `(N, )`.

Secondly, writing valid `ImageReferences` produces a warning on write:
  /Users/rly/Documents/NWB/hdmf/src/hdmf/build/objectmapper.py:874: IncorrectDatasetShapeBuildWarning: Shape of data does not match shape in spec 'ImageReferences'
    warnings.warn(msg, IncorrectDatasetShapeBuildWarning)

This occurs when getting dimension labels.

`get_data_shape` on a list/array of Data objects (a dataset of references) should return the shape of the list/array and not recurse deeper.

### Steps to Reproduce

```python
get_data_shape([Data(name="a", data=[1, 2]), Data(name="b", data=[3, 4])])
```

### Traceback

```pytb

```

### Operating System

## Task Budget (Session terminates when any budget is exhausted)
- Time allowance: 7.5 minutes
- Tool calls allowance: 30 calls
- Max loop iterations: 40 turns

## Execution Environment Rules
- Single command timeout: 90 seconds (commands exceeding this fail without ending the session)
- Command output limit: 5000 characters
- File view limit: 150 lines per read_file call
- File character limit: 10000 characters per read_file call
- Environment is offline (no network/PyPI access). All repository and test dependencies are ALREADY pre-installed. Do NOT attempt to run pip install or download packages.

## Instructions:
0. All source code is under `/workspace`. Do NOT search outside `/workspace` (e.g. `/usr/`, `/wheels/`, system site-packages). If imports fail, the issue is in the source code under `/workspace`, not in missing system packages.
1. Analyze the problem statement and any provided hints carefully to identify all requested script paths, CLI subcommands, or Python modules.
2. Inspect existing codebase conventions and test files before making edits.
3. Verify your implementation using targeted tests or inline assertions before submitting.
4. Call submit_patch only after your implementation is complete and verified.
5. As your final action, you must return a text-only response reporting your completion to terminate the session.

The user is reporting a bug in `get_data_shape` where it recursively gets the shape of `Data` objects if they are passed as a list/array, instead of returning the shape of the list/array itself.
The example provided is: `get_data_shape([Data(name="a", data=[1, 2]), Data(name="b", data=[3, 4])])`.
This should return `(2,)` but it seems to recurse into the `Data` objects.

I need to:
1. Locate `get_data_shape` function.
2. Understand how it's implemented.
3. Create a reproduction script.
4. Fix the bug.
5. Verify the fix.

Looking at the workspace layout:
`src/hdmf/data_utils.py` seems like a likely place for `get_data_shape`. Let's search for it.

The `Data` class has a `.shape` property that calls `get_data_shape(self.__data)`.
It also implements `__len__` which returns `len(self.__data)`.

Now let's look at `get_data_shape` again in `src/hdmf/utils.py`.

```python
def get_data_shape(data, strict_no_data_load=False):
    # ... docs ...

    def __get_shape_helper(local_data):
        shape = list()
        if hasattr(local_data, '__len__'):
            shape.append(len(local_data))
            if len(local_data):
                el = next(iter(local_data))
                if not isinstance(el, (str, bytes)):
                    shape.extend(__get_shape_helper(el))
        return tuple(shape)

    # NOTE: data.maxshape will fail on empty h5py.Dataset without shape or maxshape. this will be fixed in h5py 3.0
    if hasattr(data, 'maxshape'):
        return data.maxshape
    if hasattr(data, 'shape') and data.shape is not None:
        return data.shape
    if isinstance(data, dict):
        return None
    if hasattr(data, '__len__') and not isinstance(data, (str, bytes)):
        if not strict_no_data_load or isinstance(data, (list, tuple, set)):
            return __get_shape_helper(data)
    return None
```

If `data` is a list of `Data` objects:
1. It doesn't have `maxshape` (it's a list).
2. It doesn't have `shape` (it's a list).
3. It's not a `dict`.
4. It has `__len__` and is not `str` or `bytes`.
5. `__get_shape_helper([Data, Data])` is called.
6. `shape` becomes `[2]`.
7. `el` becomes the first `Data` object.
8. `el` is not `str` or `bytes`.
9. `shape.extend(__get_shape_helper(el))` is called.
10. `Data` object has `__len__` (from `Data.__len__` which returns `len(self.__data)`).
11. `shape` for `Data` object becomes `[len(data)]`.
12. This recurses further into `Data`'s data.

So if we have `[Data(data=[1, 2]), Data(data=[3, 4])]`:
`get_data_shape` on the list:
- `shape = [2]`
- `el = Data(data=[1, 2])`
- `__get_shape_helper(Data(data=[1, 2]))`:
    - `shape = [2]`
    - `el = 1` (first element of `[1, 2]`)
    - `__get_shape_helper(1)` returns `()` (no `__len__`)
    - returns `(2,)`
- `shape` becomes `[2, 2]`
- returns `(2, 2)`

The user says it should return `(2,)` because it's a list of references (in this case, `Data` objects).

The issue is that `__get_shape_helper` recurses into anything that has `__len__` except `str` and `bytes`. `Data` objects have `__len__`.

If we want to avoid recursing into `Data` objects, we should add them to the exclusion list in `__get_shape_helper`.

Wait, where is `Data` imported? I should check if `Data` is available in `src/hdmf/utils.py`.
Actually, `src/hdmf/utils.py` might not import `Data` to avoid circular imports since `Data` is in `src/hdmf/container.py` and `Data` uses `get_data_shape` from `src/hdmf/utils.py`.

Let's check the imports in `src/hdmf/utils.py`.

Indeed, `Data` is not imported in `src/hdmf/utils.py`.

If I want to avoid recursing into `Data` objects, I have a few options:
1. Import `Data` in `src/hdmf/utils.py`. But it's probably a circular import because `Data` uses `get_data_shape`.
2. Use a check that doesn't require `Data` class, like checking if the object has a `.shape` property *and* it's not a numpy array or h5py dataset.
Wait, `get_data_shape` already checks for `.shape` property at the beginning:

```python
    if hasattr(data, 'shape') and data.shape is not None:
        return data.shape
```

But `__get_shape_helper` is where the recursion happens:

```python
    def __get_shape_helper(local_data):
        shape = list()
        if hasattr(local_data, '__len__'):
            shape.append(len(local_data))
            if len(local_data):
                el = next(iter(local_data))
                if not isinstance(el, (str, bytes)):
                    shape.extend(__get_shape_helper(el))
        return tuple(shape)
```

If `el` is a `Data` object, it has `__len__`, so it recurses.
If we can identify that `el` should not be recursed into, we can stop.

`Data` objects have a `.shape` property. If an object has both `__len__` and `.shape`, should we recurse?
Numpy arrays have both. H5py datasets have both.
In `get_data_shape`, `hasattr(data, 'shape')` is checked *before* `__get_shape_helper`.

If `el` has `.shape`, maybe we should use that instead of recursing?
Wait, if `el` is a numpy array, `__get_shape_helper` will recurse into it because it has `__len__`.

Let's see what happens if `data` is `[np.array([1, 2])]`.
- `get_data_shape([np.array([1, 2])])`
- `__get_shape_helper([np.array([1, 2])])`
- `shape = [1]`
- `el = np.array([1, 2])`
- `el` is not `str` or `bytes`.
- `__get_shape_helper(np.array([1, 2]))`
- `shape = [2]`
- `el = 1`
- `__get_shape_helper(1)` returns `()`
- returns `(2,)`
- Outer `shape` becomes `[1, 2]`.
- returns `(1, 2)`.

This is correct for numpy arrays.

But for `Data` objects, we want to treat them as atomic elements in the list.
A `Data` object's `.shape` property is actually a call to `get_data_shape(self.__data)`.

If the list contains `Data` objects, it's meant to be a list of references to datasets.

The problem is that `Data` is meant to be a container.

If we want to avoid recursing into `Data` objects, we need to be able to identify them.
Since we can't easily import `Data` without circular import, maybe we can check for some attribute that `Data` objects have but numpy arrays don't.
`Data` objects have a `.data` property (actually it's `@property def data(self): return self.__data`).

Let's check if numpy arrays have a `.data` property. They do, but it's a memoryview.

Actually, the issue description says:
"get_data_shape on a list/array of Data objects (a dataset of references) should return the shape of the list/array and not recurse deeper."

If we want to avoid recursing into any object that is intended to be a "dataset reference", we need to know what those are.

Wait, if I just check if `el` has a `.shape` property AND it's not one of the types we want to recurse into? No, that's not right.

If `el` has a `.shape` property AND it's NOT a numpy array or h5py dataset, maybe it's a `Data` object (or something similar) and we should stop?
But `get_data_shape` is supposed to be generic.

Let's try to reproduce it first.

If we can identify that `el` should not be recursed into, we can stop. `Data` objects have a `.shape` property. If an object has both `__len__` and `.shape`, should we recurse? Numpy arrays have both. H5py datasets have both. In `get_data_shape`, `hasattr(data, 'shape')` is checked *before* `__get_shape_helper`. If `el` has `.shape`, maybe we should use that instead of recursing? Wait, if `el` is a numpy array, `__get_shape_helper` will recurse into it because it has `__len__`. Let's see what happens if `data` is `[np.array([1, 2])]`. - `get_data_shape([np.array([1, 2])])` - `__get_shape_helper([np.array([1, 2])])` - `shape = [1]` - `el = np.array([1, 2])` - `el` is not `str` or `bytes`. - `__get_shape_helper(np.array([1, 2]))` - `shape = [2]` - `el = 1` - `__get_shape_helper(1)` returns `()` - returns `(2,)` - Outer `shape` becomes `[1, 2]`. - returns `(1, 2)`. This is correct for numpy arrays. But for `Data` objects, we want to treat them as atomic elements in the list. A `Data` object's `.shape` property is actually a call to `get_data_shape(self.__data)`. If the list contains `Data` objects, it's meant to be a list of references to datasets. The problem is that `Data` is meant to be a container. If we want to avoid recursing into `Data` objects, we need to be able to identify them. Since we can't easily import `Data` without circular import, maybe we can check for some attribute that `Data` objects have but numpy arrays don't. `Data` objects have a `.data` property (actually it's `@property def data(self): return self.__data`). Let's check if numpy arrays have a `.data` property. They do, but it's a memoryview. Actually, the issue description says: "get_data_shape on a list/array of Data objects (a dataset of references) should return the shape of the list/array and not recurse deeper." If we want to avoid recursing into any object that is intended to be a "dataset reference", we need to know what those are. Wait, if I just check if `el` has a `.shape` property AND it's not one of the types we want to recurse into? No, that's not right. If `el` has a `.shape` property AND it's NOT a numpy array or h5py dataset, maybe it's a `Data` object (or something similar) and we should stop? But `get_data_shape` is supposed to be generic. Let's try to reproduce it first. <channel|><|tool_call>call:write_file{content:<|"|>from src.hdmf.container import Data from src.hdmf.utils import get_data_shape import numpy as np def test_get_data_shape_with_data_objects(): data_list = [Data(name="a", data=[1, 2]), Data(name="b", data=[3, 4])] shape = get_data_shape(data_list) print(f"Shape of data_list: {shape}") assert shape == (2,), f"Expected (2,), got {shape}" def test_get_data_shape_with_numpy_arrays(): data_list = [np.array([1, 2]), np.array([3, 4])] shape = get_data_shape(data_list) print(f"Shape of data_list with numpy: {shape}") assert shape == (2, 2), f"Expected (2, 2), got {shape}" if __name__ == "__main__": try: test_get_data_shape_with_data_objects() test_get_data_shape_with_numpy_arrays() print("All tests passed!") except Exception as e: print(f"Test failed: {e}") import traceback traceback.print_exc() ```,filepath:<|"|>/tmp/repro.py<|"|>}<tool_call|><|tool_response>

The reproduction successfully failed as expected.

Now I need to modify `get_data_shape` in `src/hdmf/utils.py` to stop recursing into `Data` objects.

As I noted, `Data` is not imported in `src/hdmf/utils.py`.
I can check for the existence of a `.shape` property that is actually a property (not a numpy array's `.shape` which is a tuple).
But `Data.shape` is also a tuple.

Wait, `Data` objects are instances of `AbstractContainer` (I saw this in `src/hdmf/container.py`).
Let's check `src/hdmf/container.py` to see if there is some common base class that I can use or some attribute.

In `src/hdmf/container.py`:
```python
class Data(AbstractContainer):
```

If I check for `hasattr(el, 'shape')` in `__get_shape_helper`, will that work?
Numpy arrays have `.shape`. H5py datasets have `.shape`.
If `el` has `.shape`, the current `__get_shape_helper` still recurses into it if it has `__len__`.

```python
    def __get_shape_helper(local_data):
        shape = list()
        if hasattr(local_data, '__len__'):
            shape.append(len(local_data))
            if len(local_data):
                el = next(iter(local_data))
                if not isinstance(el, (str, bytes)):
                    shape.extend(__get_shape_helper(el))
        return tuple(shape)
```

If `el` has `.shape` AND is not a numpy array/h5py dataset, maybe it's a `Data` object.
But wait, what if we just check if `el` has `.shape` AND it is NOT an instance of something we want to recurse into?

Alternatively, we can check if `el` has a `.shape` property AND we should just stop there.
But for numpy arrays, we *do* want to recurse into them to get the full shape if they are nested in lists.
Example: `[[1, 2], [3, 4]]` -> `(2, 2)`.
Here `local_data` is `[[1, 2], [3, 4]]`. `el` is `[1, 2]`. `[1, 2]` has `__len__`. Recurse.

If `el` is `np.array([1, 2])`, it has `__len__`. Recurse.

The only difference between `np.array([1, 2])` and `Data(data=[1, 2])` is that `Data` is a container.

How about we check if the object is a "Container"?
Since we are in `utils.py`, we don't want to import `Container` from `container.py` because of circular imports.

Wait, does `get_data_shape` really need to recurse into everything that has `__len__`?
If `el` has `.shape`, maybe we should use it instead of recursing?

Let's see:
If `el` is `np.array([1, 2])`, `el.shape` is `(2,)`.
If `local_data` is `[np.array([1, 2]), np.array([3, 4])]`, `len(local_data)` is 2.
If we use `el.shape`, the final shape becomes `(2,) + (2,) = (2, 2)`.
This is the same result as recursing!

Wait, if `el` is `np.array([[1, 2], [3, 4]])`, `el.shape` is `(2, 2)`.
If `local_data` is `[el]`, `len(local_data)` is 1.
Final shape: `(1,) + (2, 2) = (1, 2, 2)`. Correct.

So if `el` has `.shape`, we can just use it and stop recursing!

Let's test this hypothesis.
If `el` is `Data(data=[1, 2])`, `el.shape` is `(2,)`.
If `local_data` is `[Data(data=[1, 2]), Data(data=[3, 4])]`, `len(local_data)` is 2.
Final shape: `(2,) + (2,) = (2, 2)`. Still the same result! (Because `Data.shape` calls `get_data_shape` on its data).

Wait, the user says: "get_data_shape on a list/array of Data objects (a dataset of references) should return the shape of the list/array and not recurse deeper."

This means for `[Data, Data]`, the shape should be `(2,)`.
IT SHOULD NOT use `Data.shape`.

So we specifically want to avoid recursing into `Data` objects.
But `Data` objects are meant to be treated as atomic elements of the list.

If we can't import `Data`, how do we know it's a `Data` object?
Maybe we can check for some attribute that is unique to `Data` or `Container` objects?

Wait, if I check for `hasattr(el, 'data')`?
Numpy arrays have a `.data` attribute (a memoryview).

What about `hasattr(el, 'name')`?
`Data` objects have a `name` (passed in `__init__` and stored in `AbstractContainer` or defined as a property).
Wait, I saw `Data` has `name` in its `__init__` docval: `{'name': 'name', 'type': str, 'doc': 'the name of this container'}`.
Does it actually have a `.name` attribute? `AbstractContainer` probably implements it.

Let's check `src/hdmf/container.py` for `AbstractContainer`.

Wait, if `el` is `np.array([[1, 2], [3, 4]])`, `el.shape` is `(2, 2)`. If `local_data` is `[el]`, `len(local_data)` is 1. Final shape: `(1,) + (2, 2) = (1, 2, 2)`. Correct. So if `el` has `.shape`, we can just use it and stop recursing! Let's test this hypothesis. If `el` is `Data(data=[1, 2])`, `el.shape` is `(2,)`. If `local_data` is `[Data(data=[1, 2]), Data(data=[3, 4])]`, `len(local_data)` is 2. Final shape: `(2,) + (2,) = (2, 2)`. Still the same result! (Because `Data.shape` calls `get_data_shape` on its data). Wait, the user says: "get_data_shape on a list/array of Data objects (a dataset of references) should return the shape of the list/array and not recurse deeper." This means for `[Data, Data]`, the shape should be `(2,)`. IT SHOULD NOT use `Data.shape`. So we specifically want to avoid recursing into `Data` objects. But `Data` objects are meant to be treated as atomic elements of the list. If we can't import `Data`, how do we know it's a `Data` object? Maybe we can check for some attribute that is unique to `Data` or `Container` objects? Wait, if I check for `hasattr(el, 'data')`? Numpy arrays have a `.data` attribute (a memoryview). What about `hasattr(el, 'name')`? `Data` objects have a `name` (passed in `__init__` and stored in `AbstractContainer` or defined as a property). Wait, I saw `Data` has `name` in its `__init__` docval: `{'name': 'name', 'type': str, 'doc': 'the name of this container'}`. Does it actually have a `.name` attribute? `AbstractContainer` probably implements it. Let's check `src/hdmf/container.py` for `AbstractContainer`. <channel|><|tool_call>call:read_file{filepath:<|"|>src/hdmf/container.py<|"|>,start_line:1}<tool_call|><|tool_response>

I don't see a `.name` property on `AbstractContainer` yet.

But wait, look at `src/hdmf/container.py` again around line 892 for `Data`.
```python
class Data(AbstractContainer):
    """
    A class for representing dataset containers
    """
    @docval({'name': 'name', 'type': str, 'doc': 'the name of this container'},
            {'name': 'data', 'type': ('scalar_data', 'array_data', 'data'), 'doc': 'the source of the data'})
    def __init__(self, **kwargs):
        data = popargs('data', kwargs)
        super().__init__(**kwargs)

        self._validate_new_data(data)
        self.__data = data
```

Wait, `docval` is a decorator. It probably handles the assignment of these arguments.
Let's check `docval` in `src/hdmf/utils.py`.

`docval` seems to be for documentation and argument validation. It doesn't seem to set attributes on the class/instance.

Wait, let's go back to `src/hdmf/container.py`. I saw `Data` inherits from `AbstractContainer`.
Let's see if `AbstractContainer` or its subclasses have some common attribute we can use in `utils.py` without importing them.

Actually, `AbstractContainer` has `_fieldsname = '__fields__'` and `_data_type_attr = 'data_type'`.
And `Data` objects (and all `AbstractContainer` descendants) will likely be used in a way that they have some identifying property.

Another thing: `Data` objects have a `.shape` property.
Wait, I already checked this, and I thought that using `.shape` would still recurse.
But `get_data_shape` is used TO IMPLEMENT `Data.shape`!

Let's look at `Data.shape` implementation in `src/hdmf/container.py`.
