Case Verdict Score Skill loaded Checks Restraint Why not 10 / what failed
init-wizard-first-activation fail 3 #1 2/2 R ✗ Bundled all 8 questions into one message instead of asking one at a time and waiting for an answer, directly contradicting the expected sequential behavior · ✗ Did not run two distinguishable wizards (project vs personal); questions were merged · ✗ Never asked about confirmation-flow (sequential vs batch presentatio…

autostart-project-instruction-loads-skill pass 10 #1 2/2 R 10/10, nothing withheld
retrospective-legacy-codebase pass 9 #1 — H −1 Scoping to highest-risk areas first: the transcript shows the agent reading all four source files (billing, gateway, orders, sync_client) rather than visibly triaging by risk before diving in; the risk focus only becomes apparent in which findings it chose to write up, not in an explicit prioritization step.
interview-prep-retiring-developer pass 9 #1 — R −1 Concrete question list requirement: agent still included a generic 'walk me through orderflow' opening prompt ahead of the concrete list, which the expected behavior explicitly wants avoided, even though it was justified via the playbook and did not replace the specific questions.

index-stays-lean pass 10 #1 — R 10/10, nothing withheld
free-narration-interview pass 9 #1 — R −1 Retrospective analysis: the agent read source/context files and surfaced specific gaps ad hoc but never explicitly opened or ran a formal 'retrospective-analysis.md' procedure/gap-list artifact referenced by interview-playbook.md, so the analysis, while substantively present, wasn't shown as a discrete documented s…

source-reference-filtered-matching-criterion pass 9 #1 — R −1 The source-reference question is stated as a future intention ('I'll also ask ... once I have it') rather than posed directly in this turn alongside the request for decision content — a minor hedge rather than a fully direct ask, though justified since the decision content itself was never supplied in the prompt.

Skill loaded: the ordinal of the tool call that loaded the skill (1 = first thing the agent did). Checks: deterministic checks passed/declared, — when the case declares none. Restraint: R=restrained (didn't touch the file, did respond) · N=session ended with no response at all · U=acted with no real investigation · F=investigated, then faked confidence · H=investigated honestly, then acted anyway.
