What this means
The AI answers were recorded earlier from the first draft of each answer key. These runs check our rules and our test setup, so agreement with the answer key here does not measure a live model.

- The answer key was written by the builder. The counts above separate answers the owner checked one by one from drafts accepted without checking each one; nobody outside the project checked them.
- All cases are made up; no real people or personal data. They cover tracking problems, decisions from evidence, human review and hidden instructions. Shipping and return checks also have their own tests.
- 62 cases (28 where the buyer was right, 28 where the seller was right, 6 unclear, 10 with hidden tricks) is a small sample: treat these numbers as a limited snapshot.
- Damage and missing-parts problems always need a person, whatever the AI says.

Jargon used above:
- Case variants: each case is re-run with its counterfactual variants, which swap the names, reverse the evidence order, shorten or lengthen the story, or make it formal or informal.
- Repeated runs: every case is run 3 times (k = 3) to check the answer stays the same.
