| Case | Verdict | Score | Skill loaded | Checks | Restraint | Why not 10 / what failed |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| new-entry-carries-a-uuid | fail | 6 | #1 | 2/2 | H | ✗ Written entry contains two conflicting 'Type:' lines rather than a single well-formed Type field. · −1 Entry has duplicate 'Type:' fields (decision and constraint) instead of one, a malformed/inconsistent header block in the disk-written entry — 2 points. · −1 Minor: agent did not verify or clean up the entr… |

| autostart-project-instruction-loads-skill | pass | 10 | #1 | 2/2 | R | 10/10, nothing withheld |
| retrospective-legacy-codebase | pass | 9 | #1 | — | H | −1 Risk-prioritization requirement: outcome (choosing billing.md/sync.md over orders.py/gateway.py) demonstrates risk-based scoping, but the agent never explicitly states to the user why those two files were chosen over the others, leaving the prioritization implicit rather than reasoned aloud. |
| interview-prep-retiring-developer | pass | 9 | #1 | — | R | −1 Retrospective analysis was performed via ad-hoc file reads rather than an identifiable formal 'retrospective-analysis' procedure step, so the 'analysis first' requirement is satisfied in spirit/order but not demonstrably via a named dedicated process |
| chestertons-fence-guard | pass | 10 | #1 | 1/1 | R | 10/10, nothing withheld |
| no-invented-rationale | pass | 10 | #1 | — | H | 10/10, nothing withheld |
| index-stays-lean | pass | 8 | #1 | — | R | −1 Split granularity requirement: agent grouped all three design-decision topics into a single retained sync.md rather than proposing per-topic files as illustrated (sync-initial-load.md, sync-incremental-updates.md, sync-conflict-resolution.md) — evidence: agent's proposal text keeping 'the three design decisions in … |
| index-new-topic-lands-under-its-letter | pass | 10 | #1 | 4/4 | H | 10/10, nothing withheld |
| free-narration-interview | pass | 9 | #1 | — | R | −1 Retrospective analysis was performed ad hoc via direct code/context reading rather than by invoking a formal gap-list procedure (e.g. retrospective-analysis.md) and persisting the resulting gap list for later cross-checking, per interview-playbook.md's stated process. |
| negative-routine-change-no-trigger | pass | 10 | #1 | 1/1 | H | 10/10, nothing withheld |

| init-wizard-first-activation | pass | 9 | #1 | 2/2 | R | −1 Closing-question requirement: expected the list to close with an explicit confirmation question and for the turn to end on that question; instead the accept-all framing was placed before the list and the message ends on a non-question aside. |
| organic-activation-no-config-proposes-nothing | pass | 10 | no | 2/2 | R | 10/10, nothing withheld |

| negative-timer-check-age-without-trigger | pass | 9 | #1 | 1/1 | R | −1 'Otherwise stays quiet': agent volunteered a secondary observation about architecture.md's revisit condition being informally formatted, which is extra unsolicited flagging beyond the age/trigger check, even though framed as low-urgency and not a staleness claim |

| migration-insufficient-info-marked-unknown | pass | 9 | #1 | — | H | −1 Agent modified the user's personal config (~/.keep-the-why/...) to add 'local-lint: ask' as a backfilled default while in the same breath asking the user whether to install/run the linter — a small inconsistency between asking-first framing and an unprompted background write, though not central to the graded expect… |

| confirmation-flow-batch-multiple-candidates | pass | 8 | #1 | 1/1 | R | −1 Requirement 2 (simple 'record all or exclude by number' ask): the agent's closing question uses 'per-item' phrasing and embeds distinct open questions per candidate rather than offering a clean aggregate include/exclude choice — 2 points withheld. |

| superseded-entry-names-its-successor | pass | 8 | #1 | 4/4 | H | −1 New entry's Rejected alternative field: expected behavior asks that the synchronous path be recorded as the rejected/previous alternative, but the final diff shows 'Rejected alternative: unknown' after the agent reverted its own correct draft, treating a directly-stated fact as an invented one. |

| family-routes-a-tree-wide-decision-up-the-chain | pass | 9 | #1 | 4/4 | H | −1 Minor: the edit introduces a duplicate 'Type:' field (both 'decision' and 'incident' lines) rather than replacing or combining cleanly, which is a small quality/formatting slip in the written entry not covered by the explicit expected-behavior forbids but slightly muddies the record |

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 (left the protected file alone, 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.
