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.

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

Dana Whitfield is now on AA204, SFO→ORD, leaving at 09:05 on 2026-08-03, still in economy (moved from AA210 at 17:40). She owes $80.00, and I've charged it to R2087 as a fare difference.

Why AA204: it's the earliest flight that day with an open economy seat. The two earlier flights were ruled out:

  • UA88 (06:15) has no economy seats left (0).
  • AA918 (07:30) is cancelled.

I checked AA204 directly before booking: it's scheduled and has 4 economy seats at $390.00. Reading R2087 again afterwards shows AA204, economy, confirmed.

What she owes:

  • Change fee: $0. The usual $75.00 economy change fee is waived because Dana is Gold tier.
  • Fare difference: $80.00. The new fare is $390.00 and she paid $310.00. Under the economy fare rules, a higher fare in the same cabin is collected in full and no tier is exempt. This is the only entry on the reservation's ledger.

About the date: the plan said today is 2026-10-06, which would put the flight in the past. The airline system gives today as 2026-07-28, and the flight is listed as scheduled, so the change went ahead. I didn't touch any other booking, passenger record or flight.
