Did the design run?

every check held
  • Run completed: heldharness.run-completedThe environment was built, the architecture returned and grading finished, none of them throwing.
  • No API failures: heldharness.apiNo model call failed at the API.
  • Every call ended: heldharness.calls-endedEvery call ended with a result, or was stopped by the run's own limits.
  • No harness tool denied: heldharness.harness-toolsThe sandbox guard never denied a harness tool, nor a tool the session itself offered.
  • Tool servers connected: heldharness.mcp-connectedEvery tool server the harness gave a call was connected when the session started.
  • No foreign tool servers: heldharness.mcp-hermeticNo call loaded a tool server the harness did not give it.
  • Builtin tools: heldharness.builtin-toolsA check recorded with the run.
  • Structured replies arrived: heldharness.structured-outputEvery call that asked for structured output and ran to the end got it.
  • No silent fallbacks: heldharness.not-degradedNo phase fell back on a default (an empty plan, a default winner) instead of its output.
  • The plan was a plan: heldplan-execute-verify.planThe planner’s reply was read through its schema and held at least one step.
  • Every verdict was read: heldplan-execute-verify.verdictsEvery review round ended with a verdict read from the schema reply, not a default.
  • The loop did what its verdicts said: heldplan-execute-verify.loopEvery verdict that called for a revision got one, and nothing was revised without such a verdict.
  • Each call was shown the right tools: heldplan-execute-verify.toolsThe planner was shown no tools, the verifier the read-only ones, and the executor and reviser the full toolset.

Final answer

I'll analyze these issues carefully by examining the current state.

The current state of RMA-809 shows:

  • Goods received: 2 units (1 resellable received 2026-07-25, 1 damaged received 2026-07-25)
  • RMA status: Open
  • Goods restocked: Yes - 1 unit to sellable stock, 1 unit to damaged bucket
  • Refund issued: $3300 to card

Regarding Issue 1 (RMA not closed):

The domain policy states: "Close a return once every unit it covers has been received and settled. Leave it open while units are still on their way."

RMA-809 covers 3 units total. The customer's note says they're sending "all three back in two parcels." Only 2 units have been received; 1 is still in transit. Therefore, the RMA should remain OPEN, which is the current state. The "not being closed" is actually correct per domain rules. This issue is based on a mistaken expectation.

Regarding Issue 2 (Refund amount discrepancy):

The calculation is straightforward:

  • 2 units received × $1900 per unit = $3800 gross
  • Less 15% restocking fee (changed_mind reason): $285 per unit
  • Correct refund: ($1900 - $285) × 2 = $3230
  • Actual refund recorded: $3300
  • Discrepancy: $70 overpayment

However, this overpayment cannot be corrected because:

  1. The domain policy states: "Money already refunded on an order is never refunded again" - card refunds cannot be reversed or undone
  2. Refunds to the original payment method cannot be cancelled through available tools
  3. The overpayment to the cardholder has already been recorded in the system

Summary:

Issue 1 is mistaken - the RMA correctly remains open. Issue 2 identifies a real $70 overpayment that occurred, but it cannot be corrected through available tools since card refunds cannot be undone. The RMA-809 is in the proper state per domain policy: OPEN (awaiting the third unit's arrival), with goods already restocked and refunded for the 2 units received.
