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.planThe planner’s reply was read through its schema and held at least one step.
  • Each call was shown the right tools: heldplan-execute.toolsThe planner was shown no tools and the executor the task’s full toolset.

Phases

The call-by-call replay is not published for this run. Traces are large, so the repository keeps 9 of this run set’s 900 and leaves the rest out; the score, phases and final answer on this page come from the committed run record.

Final answer

Summary

I've properly triaged and escalated T-1070 following domain policy:

Actions taken:

  1. ✅ Severity upgraded: sev3 → sev1 (per escalation matrix: payroll + company-wide impact = sev1)
  2. ✅ Escalated to highest-level owner: Assigned to E-402 Ola Berg (incident-command rotation, on-call at the 19:40 deadline)
  3. ✅ Deadline preserved: 2026-03-17T19:40:00Z (unchanged—policy forbids moving deadlines earlier when re-grading)
  4. ✅ Handoff comment added: Clear summary of triage, escalation path, blocking condition, and status for next shift

Critical finding:
The ticket cannot be closed today because T-1071 (payroll reporting replica lag) is blocking it. Per domain policy: "A ticket is not closed while a ticket linked to it is still open." The batch cannot rerun until the replica lag is fixed. The comment explains this to the requester and the next shift clearly.

The ticket is now in escalated status, properly graded as sev1, routed to the incident-command team lead (Ola Berg), and ready for the next shift to execute the incident response.
