This is the expected behavior. The {int} placeholder is a marker in the Cucumber Expressions format that we support in addition to regular expressions. See https://docs.reqnroll.net/latest/automation/cucumber-expressions.html for details.

You can force generating regular expressions in the snippets by setting the trace/stepDefinitionSkeletonStyle configuration setting to RegexAttribute. See https://docs.reqnroll.net/latest/installation/configuration.html#trace.

Closing this issues as "by design".
