qa-functional-webhook-report failed in two of three censuses because the
report linked .qa-evidence/NNN capture folders as "checkpoints" and never
linked exploration-NNN.json. The checkpoint receipt now prints
link: [checkpoint NNN](exploration-NNN.json), and the functional report
template says capture folders are not checkpoints.
The registered-callback fixtures mock ceo-mode-option and lacked the new
export; the split fixtures asserted the periodic tier; the registered-budget
check looked for split-overflow only in the periodic manifest.
Census 36629958451 reds:
- outside-plan-disabled-no-fallback: the model quoted the pre-existing record
as a parenthesized field list with its exact timestamp; attribution now
requires that exact timestamp and the record's own field values.
- plan-devex-peer-comparison-classification: the judge correctly returned
missing but wrote a 1069-character reason, voiding the judgment; structured
outputs cannot enforce maxLength, so the bound is stated on the field.
- plan-ceo-split-overflow ran 504-1188 s as one PTY flow and set the
periodic lane's wall clock; it now runs weekly in the marathon lane.
2.1.284 enables per-turn effort for claude-fable-5-1: in gate census
36626737820, 66 of 84 sessions ran longer than on 2.1.251 (+20% session time,
+32% thinking tokens) and 11 cases timed out on unchanged budgets.
HOLD SCOPE's 0G step asks its own defer/keep menu; the actor answered it
Defer and the assessment then judged that scope question as the rigor
decision. The actor now answers that menu Keep and assesses the next one.
Census run 36626737820: the native CEO report arrived framed and indented, so
its INPUT line never matched, and the model's exact probe plus two variable
echoes was not canonical. A column-zero line inside a frame, command
substitution, backticks, redirects, assignments, CODEX_MODE echoes and output
line-count mismatches stay rejected. The failure now records before asserting.
submitPlanSeed accepted a stale empty composer when the transcript recorded
end_turn before the CLI repainted (late-repaint-typed-current fails 5/5 on the
old helper, passes 5/5 now). The TPA recording fixture extracted recordE2E
without isPreTurnInfraFailure, so every failed case threw before recording.
The next targeted rerun (Claude Code 2.1.284) again asked eleven separate
native questions and again counted zero: its briefs named no plan and its
report declared '- **Review target (fixed):** `/abs/PLAN.md`' under
'# Eng Review — PLAN.md: <plan>'. An unsourced brief now inherits the one
current target field that names a PLAN.md file, whatever its list or
emphasis markup; its ledger record still supplies the cited finding and
must reproduce the brief exactly. A brief that names its plan must still
match the report title. Replays of all three captures count 9, 9 and 3;
controls reject a foreign, duplicate or missing target and an archived
title.
recordE2E sets failure_class 'infra' on a failed session whose runner
reports error_api, timeout_startup, error_output_stream or a non-zero CLI
exit with zero turns and no assistant event. A model refusal, a timeout
after model work, max turns, or an explicit caller pass/class keeps its
ordinary classification.
llm-judge-recommendation is a judge case: each fixture now draws a
3-sample judgePanel, gates reason_substance on the panel mean and the
present/commits/has_because checks on a 2-of-3 majority, thresholds
unchanged. armJudge no longer re-asks on a malformed verdict; it is a
failed sample, as the judge policy requires.
shared-libs-opportunity-judgment and review-design-lite are behavior
cases: their recommendation and checklist judgments may vary, but the
read-only invariant (commands, provider requests, fixture bytes, hooks,
state) and the deterministic fake-engine detector rows are contracts.
Both now go through expectContract, so any failure vetoes the panel.
The targeted batching rerun on Claude Code 2.1.284 left its first report
Write unanswered for 1,372 s and timed out: the viewport began at the
pane's relative file row and rule, with the 'Create file' title cropped
above, so the preview parser rejected the file row as foreign. That row
must now resolve to the owned path and is skipped before the unchanged
line-by-line preview match. Replay controls reject another file, another
directory and an edited preview row.
bun run scripts/test-paid-shards.ts --case <id> [--trials N] runs N
independent trials of one case through the CI panel runner (trial shards,
TRIAL_ENV identity, name-pattern isolation) and prints its panelVerdict();
N defaults to the case's policy panel and CI never reads it. The local
sharded path (test:gate:sharded, test:periodic:sharded) now plans the same
trial shards and exclusions as CI and exits on execution completeness plus
panel verdicts.
The planner job restores this PR's receipt store once and ships a single
filtered set with the plan: a pass or panel receipt with a same-or-newer
FAIL for its input identity is dropped, and a panel receipt ships only as
a whole PASS panel (re-verified with panelVerdict) from one run. Executors
read only that set (no per-slice cache restore or save), so every trial of
a panel sees the same receipts; a trial reuses its own record from the
panel receipt, keeping a split PASS's failed trial.
Trial identities drop the trial index (run-scoped) and bind the panel
policy. Executed shards carry their input identity; the report turns a
whole fresh PASS panel into a panel receipt and a FAIL panel or failed rule
shard into a negative receipt, and marks a panel that mixes reused and
fresh trials INCOMPLETE. The report job merges plan, slice and report
receipts (newest per file) and saves one store per run.
Also fixes two TS2352 casts in browse/test/dia-macos-qualification.test.ts
whose diagnostic text drifted with program order (baseline locked, fix only).
- Slice, census and marathon artifacts carry -a<run_attempt>; reports
download them per artifact (no merge), so records never overwrite and a
re-run never replaces the first attempt's verdict.
- Planners pass --max-parallel for the capacity preflight (24/16 unchanged:
the refreshed periodic plan needs 24 slices, the gate census 12).
- PR comment: jq-only job reads collector-outcomes v2 (headline, sanitized
failure block); the group_by(.name)|last recomputation is gone.
- Reports stamp series identities, upload trial-outcomes-* for history, and
shard logs upload always (a failed trial no longer reds its runner).
- Weekly report: headline + failure block of both lanes in the issue body,
the eval:pass-rates --gate step (fails closed without history), close the
issue on a green run, and UC-E1: when every red is machine-classified
INFRA/INCOMPLETE, one re-dispatch as a new run in its own concurrency
group (redispatch_of), both runs reported.
- scripts/eval-trial-series.ts stamps series_identity (eval-flake-rank's
caseSeriesIdentities) on a report's trial-outcomes JSONL as its own step,
keeping the history tool out of the paid runner's closure;
TrialOutcomeRecord gains the optional series_identity field.
- Slice-count plans let a registered trial spill into an ordinary lane when
its siblings hold every long lane, so panels never share a runner.
- Re-audited test-selection.ts (Stream B added the E2E_KINDS/BEHAVIOR_WHY
map-diff; no new module loading) and repinned its hash.
- Detach and release floors now count trial shards (66 periodic trials in
22 panels): periodic floor 33,821s, still under eval:bg:periodic's 67,380s.
- Coordination fixtures supply the executor's trial records.
Both tiers, merged in run order (the later run wins). Notable: split-overflow
1332s -> 504s, section-loading 604s -> 342s, mode-routing 575s -> 444s;
multi-finding-batching 734s -> 1318s (its red path in run 36606688266).
Planner: behavior and quarantined cases become panels of isolated trial
shards (<file>#<id>~t<N>) bound by EVALS_SELECTION_JSON=[id] and the exact
test name; the file shard excludes them by name. Trials of one case never
share a slice, result slugs are unique, panels are validated whole, unknown
registrations throw, and the planner prints a capacity preflight.
Executor: each trial shard gets its TRIAL_ENV identity and a trial record
(outcome, failure class, cause, cost); every shard writes a JUnit report.
The slice exit now means execution completeness: a failed rule shard or a
trial without a record reds the runner, a failed trial does not.
Report: panelVerdict() decides every panel of the first run attempt (later
attempts are reported, never replacing it); rule shards keep the unchanged
fail-closed checks; collector records all count (no last-attempt wins);
census runs enforce the quarantine cap and expiry. It writes
collector-outcomes v2, trial-outcomes.jsonl (trials plus JUnit rule/judge
cases), report-summary.md, and one headline + failure block with rerun
commands, and flags INFRA/INCOMPLETE-only reds for the one re-dispatch.
The fail-open suite gains the panel cases: behavior 1/3 red, 2/3 green
with its failed trial shown, missing trial INCOMPLETE, contract at 2/3 red,
quarantined 1/3 green, 0/3 and contract red, missing slice red, and a later
attempt never replacing the first.
AGENTS.md replaces the retry rule with the approved policy text (no retries;
kind fixes trials; no added trials, samples or dispatches after a result;
quarantine by CASE_QUARANTINE only; one INFRA/INCOMPLETE re-dispatch) and
notes that a pre-registered fixed panel is not rejudging. CONTRIBUTING gains
the kind rules, the judge panel, eval:pass-rates and an 'Add a paid eval'
checklist. TESTING_INTERNALS describes verdicts, quarantine, history and the
arithmetic, including the rule term: 1 trial vs 2-of-3 red rates at
p = 0.99/0.95/0.90/0.70/0.30 and lane all-green probabilities for the
current 191 rule / 22 behavior / 25 judge registry.
Run 36606688266 bundled routing, learnings and the mode choice into one
native call. Its review panel was taller than the terminal, so the tab
bar scrolled off, ceoModeSubmissionInput returned null for 240 s and HOLD
SCOPE was never submitted ('no posture match'). With no bar on screen the
viewport must still end at the focused Submit prompt, and the accumulated
screen text supplies the one complete panel, authenticated exactly as
before. Replay controls reject another mode, an unoffered answer, an
altered question, a quoted panel, trailing output, a moved cursor and an
answered or changed call.
Run 36606688266's opportunity audit read sixteen sources one per turn and
stopped at error_max_turns; the passing run 36597762183 read the same
files in three batched commands. The skill now says turns are bounded and
asks for parallel reads or one read-only command per step.
Both proof runs (36597762183, 36606688266) printed DESIGN_READY, hit
'No OpenAI API key found' on the first $D variants call, then hand-built
HTML/CSS wireframes, screenshots and a comparison board for ~195-245 s
before the first review question; the second run timed out at 600 s.
A failed first generation now takes the existing text-only path, and the
skill forbids substituting hand-built mockups.
Run 36606688266 asked ten separate native review questions (D1-D9 bound
to ledger records R1-R9) and failed reviewCount=0 < FLOOR=3: its briefs
named the plan by title instead of citing PLAN.md, its report declared
'Review target (fixed): PLAN.md' under '# Engineering review: <plan>', and
it kept an unfenced copy of the plan's own H1. The named-source route now
accepts those spellings and non-inline ledger briefs. The same replay
rejects a foreign, mixed, duplicate or missing target, another plan's
title or copied H1, a brief naming another plan or file, a mismatched
saved brief, and re-asks. The run-36597762183 capture still counts 3.
A completed GSTACK REVIEW REPORT ends the review, so the review-question
count is final there. Run 36606688266 wrote its report at 1,248 s and
closed the session at 1,318 s; the case now stops collection and applies
the unchanged floor at the report instead of waiting out the session.
No budget changes.
2.1.251 logs [claude-code:unrecognized_model] for claude-fable-5-1, the
eval capture/judge default. 2.1.284 does not. The gate PTY smoke subset
(plan-ceo/plan-devex plan-mode, plan-mode-no-op) parses on the new TUI;
plan-design-review-plan-mode passed at 293 s on 2.1.284 and timed out at
300 s on 2.1.251 on the same tree.
scripts/eval-flake-rank.ts becomes eval:pass-rates (eval:flake-rank stays an
alias, and the legacy aggregate stays exported). It reads eval-store's
trial-outcomes JSONL from the last N completed evals-periodic runs on this
branch and main (gh, downloading only the trial-outcomes artifact, cached and
size-capped, parsed as data), plus local eval dirs, and prints per-case
per-trial pass rates with 95% Wilson intervals.
A series is a case's own touchfiles minus GLOBAL_TOUCHFILES
(caseSeriesIdentities, for the report job to stamp), per model, CLI version
and policy version. Labels: INCONCLUSIVE, BROKEN, FLAKY, FAILING, PASSING.
--backfill imports legacy slice artifacts as pre-policy trials (first
attempt only, attributed by registry id, never guessed) for display only.
--gate fails with ACTION REQUIRED on post-policy evidence only: drift below
the quarantine entry rule, a rule case behaving like behavior, a one-sided
Fisher drop against the previous identity (Holm-controlled), and quarantine
entries that met their exit rule, expired after 8 weekly runs, broke the
10% tier cap or are invalid. CASE_QUARANTINE entries now carry a
failureClass (detector, harness or model-latency); a product defect has no
class and is never quarantined. The policy test pins EVAL_POLICY's approved
constants.
E2E_KINDS: rule by default (191 E2E ids), 22 behavior cases whose verdict is
a live model choice with an acceptable sub-100% per-trial rate, each with a
BEHAVIOR_WHY tolerance, and 25 judge entries (the 24 workflow judges plus the
fixed-fixture llm-judge-recommendation rubric check). Contract-shaped cases
(ask-before-decide, plan-mode no-writes, mandated steps, secrets, the batching
floor) stay rule. Behavior requires a known literal registration and an exact
Bun test name so the case runs as its own trial shard.
Map-diff selection now diffs E2E_KINDS and BEHAVIOR_WHY per key, and a base
revision without them selects every key, so a kind flip runs the panel it
introduces. test/eval-kinds.test.ts enforces coverage, tolerances,
isolatability and the reviewed counts, printing the literal to add.
Each of the 24 skill-llm-eval judges now draws EVAL_POLICY.judge.samples
independent samples of the same prompt concurrently inside the unchanged
JUDGE_MS budget. Numeric dimensions gate on the per-dimension panel mean
against the unchanged threshold; booleans (would_browse, consistent) on a
strict majority. An erroring sample fails the whole panel and is never
resampled; a refusal is an unscored panel only when every sample refused.
callJudge's 429 backoff stays: it is transport before any model output.
The workflow-judge cache stores and validates only complete panels, and its
identity now records the panel and zero file retries. Harness tests that
pinned one provider call per case now pin the panel size.
Paid evals never retry (approved 2026-09-29): delete SHORT_CASE_RETRY_FILES
and retriesWithinCaseCap, drop the retry fields from the registered wall rows
(walls now cover one run plus reserve), make retriesForFiles return 0, pass
--retry 0 explicitly, and drop --retry 1 from the package.json paid scripts.
Add the eval:pass-rates alias. Tests that pinned the old retry allowance are
updated as a policy change; review-finalization-budget now proves late-result
recording under the production zero-retry arguments.
Synthetic slice artifacts for rule fail, timeout, missing slice, unreported
entry, hollow, never-started, collector failure and wrong-slice reports all
exit red before the panel-verdict gate change lands.
EvalTestEntry gains case_id, kind, trial, panel, failure_class and
policy_version, stamped from the runner's TRIAL_ENV on isolated trial
shards. panelVerdict() is the single verdict function (INCOMPLETE on
missing or duplicate trials, contract veto at any count, quarantine
hard-break rule, INFRA/INCOMPLETE machine classification). expectContract()
records failure_class 'contract' on the collector entry and a sidecar
before throwing. trial-outcomes JSONL has a fail-closed writer and a
data-only reader.
Every E2E_TIERS and LLM_JUDGE_TOUCHFILES key starts as 'rule'; BEHAVIOR_WHY
and CASE_QUARANTINE start empty. EVAL_POLICY pre-registers the approved
panel (3, majority 2), quarantine entry 0.95/10 and exit 0.97/10, 10% cap,
8-weekly-run expiry, Fisher drift alarm and one INFRA re-dispatch.
qa-b6-static timed out on claude-fable-5-1 in census 36597762183 and in one
of two targeted reruns. Both times the stream stopped mid-message with no
pending tool, right after the model found the disabled submit button, and
stayed silent until the 300 s deadline. Per the B8 fallback, re-pin with a
TODOS entry; budgets and retries are unchanged. A rerun on opus-4-7 passed
(125 s, 5/5 detected).
HOLD Defer/Keep briefs must use 'Note: options differ in kind' (preamble),
but the answered-HOLD path demanded a Completeness score, rejected a
one-line Net with a semicolon, and read posture only from ELI10. The rerun's
brief applied HOLD SCOPE in its Recommendation reason. Revert the
ineffective 'always'/'handoff chat' wording: two runs still skipped the
mode handoff.
The actor declares 'Design: review all seven dimensions', but its picker
reused designReviewSetupAUQ, which only matches already-answered calls
(and a narrower header/label set), so the pending D1 focus menu was never
answered and the case waited out its 609 s deadline. The skill's Step 0D
requires asking; the fixture now answers it.
The census review traced the seeded race as 'R1 miss -> R1 store read (v1)
-> W commit v2 -> W cache.delete -> W fulfills -> R1 cache.set(v1) -> R2
(begun after W) hits v1', but the in-flight gate only accepted race
vocabulary or fixed sentence shapes. Order, actor, version and dismissal
mutations still fail.
The repair rerun named the seeded record by its ISO second
(2026-09-29T16:58:52Z vs .727Z) and said 'I did not write'; both were
misread as a foreign timestamp and a current write.
The parent obeyed the off switch and twice named the seeded completed
record as pre-existing, once with the quotation after its owner and once
with slash separators; the order-specific stripper counted both as current
completion. Timestamp, location, current-claim and value-match controls
still reject.
Census 36597762183: both mode-routing runs logged provenance and moved on
without the mandated handoff chat; the EXPANSION run asked an unauthorized
batch/narrow pacing menu instead of the first per-addition question; the
expansion-energy proposals led with the spec because v1.87.6.0 dropped
'lead with the felt experience'. The HOLD review detector also rejected a
decision whose grounding line named no plan file although the owned source
Read binds it.
design-review-fix drives the Aside browser and registers test.skip on Linux
runners, so its case shard executed zero cases and failed the exact-one-case
check in proof census 36597762183 (eval-slices 6). CASE_CI_EXCLUDE (reason +
tracking, beside PERIODIC_CI_EXCLUDE) now turns such cases into excluded
manifest entries that --list and the manifest surface; every planned case
shard still must execute exactly its case.
ship-docsync ran the same fixture and prompt as ship-docsync-completion and
asserted a subset of it. The file now runs one case per process, so its lane
wall is its longest case instead of half the sum of thirteen.
