This is a challenge the Cops' Thread can be found here

Your challenge, as robbers is to take outputs from the cops' thread and find anagrams of the output that when run as a program output the original output provided.

The winner will be the person with the most valid cracks on this question.

Rules

  • You may not crack answers marked as safe with a provided program.

  • If a cop provides a language that the intended solution is in you must crack it in that particular language, if they choose not to you may crack it in any competing language.

  • Standard rules for Quines apply.

  • Cracks must not be perfect Quines. i.e. they must not output their exact source but a reordering of it (the order is provided by the cop).

How it works

256,                Push the range [0 ... 255].
    X>              Remove the first item (0).
      10-           Remove 10 (0x0a).
         [D]/       Split at occurrences of 13 (0x0d).
             Aa*    Join, separating by 10 (0x0a).
                :c  Cast all integers to character.
                e#  Begins a comment, terminated by the linefeed at the very end.

Brain-Flak, Riley

()((((((()()()){}){}){})()){}{}){({}[()][((((((()()()()()){}){}){})()))]{})}{}((()()()){}()){({}[()][((((((()()()){}){}()){({}[()])}{})()()))]{})}{}((((()()()()){}){}()){}){({}[()][((((((((()()()()()){}){}){}())){}{})()()))]{})}{}

Try it online!

Explanation

This was a bit easier than I had expected.

I wrote 3 separate loops to print each type of brace:

(((((()()()){}){}){})()){}{}){({}[()][((((((()()()()()){}){}){})()))]{})}{}
((()()()){}()){({}[()][((((((()()()){}){}()){({}[()])}{})()()))]{})}{}
((((()()()()){}){}()){}){({}[()][((((((((()()()()()){}){}){}())){}{})()()))]{})}{}

I used standard Mini-Flak technique to avoid using <...> monad and to be honest I never really felt the need to use the <> nilad.

This must have been extremely similar to what Riley did in the first place because when I was done I had an extra () left over. This is not a problem because () is essentially a no-op at the top level so I stuck it at the front of my program.

    \$\begingroup\$ That's exactly what/how I wrote it. I needed the extra () to get everything to match up. Well done! \$\endgroup\$

Haskell, 107 bytes, Laikoni

main=print$id=<<['|':[d]>>[d|i<-"$$'''',--..:<<<<====>>[[[[]]]]addddddiiiiiimnnprt|||",i==d]|d<-id['$'..]]

Plus a trailing newline.

Try it online! (needs a few seconds to run, because it loops through all unicode characters).

The program has an id (right before ['$'..]) which is not needed for the program logic, but somehow I have to spend the i and d.

Once I noticed that some characters repeated in pairs, it was just a matter of finding a suitable ascii map between characters.

Try it online!

I don't really know Pyth that well, but I started with printing the required output and went from there.

 +"J+J=JJ 1-2#pTN%"N             # Add a '"' to the string in quotes
J                                # Assign result of above step to J
                     #           # Start an infinite loop
                      %2J=T-1    # Loops one iteration, then breaks
                                 # (I have no idea why this works)
                             pJ  # Explicitly print J

Very similar to the python solution in that it abuses ascii values to print the characters it needs.
