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.

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

I cancelled R3311, but you're getting $248.00 in travel credit, not the refund to your card that you asked for.

  • Why not the card: Your Basic Economy fare is non-refundable on its own. Your trip insurance does override that, but it only pays back to the card when you cancel at least 14 days before departure. The refund policy treats today as 2026-07-28, which is 8 days before the 2026-08-05 flight. So the insurance converts the fare into travel credit.
  • No $50 fee: The cancellation service fee is waived because you're a Platinum member. That is why the credit is the full $248.00.
  • What I did: I cancelled R3311 and released its seats. I then issued one ledger entry (L1) for $248.00 of travel credit. I didn't touch any other booking.

Separately, the system header gives today's date as 2026-10-06, which would put the flight in the past. The refund policy tool says 2026-07-28, and the reservation was still confirmed and scheduled, so I used that date.
