Word shows ]: instead of ): in Bibliographie for some sources

Does anybody why Word shows a ] instead of a ) for some sources.
When I open the code there is a ) for any source and also the citation-preview in Zotero shows ): ...

What I need is:
AuthorName, AuthorSurname (Year):

What Word shows me when I add Bibliographie through Zotero:
AuthorName, AuthorSurname (Year]:

The Visual Editor also shows ] but when i open the options there is always ): as suffix

    Which citation style? It's likely the CSL processor being overzealous in trying to fix parentheses, but I think that usually only happens with styles that are poorly coded.

    It's kind of my own one...
    After I had my perfect style (author-date) done, I decided to switch to notes :/. So I just changed the style in the visual editor from author-date to notes...and everything works fine besides this ]: thing :D

    You can find the code here:

    I'd have to see test data to say for sure, but typically setting opening parentheses on one text and closing parentheses on another is a typical trigger for that. Use a group with prefix="(" suffix=")" instead.
