Input disclosure
Synthetic blind-test input pack WFT-067: A plant team will provide fictional log entries, alarms, temporary controls, pending permits, and incoming-shift responsibilities. Source facts: records WFT-067-R01 through WFT-067-R06; two fixed windows at 08:00–12:00 and 13:00–17:00; capacity limits of 44 and 52; dependency WFT-067-R04 after WFT-067-R02; and an unavailable interval for WFT-067-R05. Governing rule card: the two window limits (44 and 52). Honor fixed windows, availability, blackout periods, predecessor order, travel or rest buffers, and capacity limits before optimizing; leave an item unassigned when no feasible slot exists. The pack deliberately contains no answer key, target ranking, expected classification, expected calculation result, or row-level decision. Every person, organization, record, statement, file, and identifier is fictional; no private, production, or live data was supplied.
Run disclosure
We ran one text-only synthetic benchmark WFT-067 for “turn fragmented shift notes into an actionable operations handover” in a Codex multi-agent session. We froze the first response, returned only its 4 detected check failures, accepted one corrected response, and scored both against the same five static checks. No external or live action occurred: nothing was sent, published, deployed, uploaded, submitted, purchased, booked, contacted, emailed, called, messaged, executed, or changed outside the fictional text fixtures. No external, live, or production action occurred. Per-case elapsed time was not instrumented during the batch session.

The recorded session received the following prompt without silent additions.
Run bounded synthetic field test WFT-067. Task: turn fragmented shift notes into an actionable operations handover. Context: A plant team will provide fictional log entries, alarms, temporary controls, pending permits, and incoming-shift responsibilities. Fictional source facts: records WFT-067-R01 through WFT-067-R06; two fixed windows at 08:00–12:00 and 13:00–17:00; capacity limits of 44 and 52; dependency WFT-067-R04 after WFT-067-R02; and an unavailable interval for WFT-067-R05. Governing policy, formula, or rubric: the two window limits (44 and 52). Honor fixed windows, availability, blackout periods, predecessor order, travel or rest buffers, and capacity limits before optimizing; leave an item unassigned when no feasible slot exists. Produce a constraint table, sequenced plan, and exception register. Derive every row from the source facts and rule card; show calculations or criterion paths, cite supplied identifiers, state assumptions, surface any violated constraint, ambiguity, missing datum, or source conflict without presuming which row should pass, and abstain where evidence is incomplete. Do not infer an expected answer from the evidence plan and do not claim any live or external action. Planned verification after the frozen response: A source-linked handover checklist will verify open hazards, ownership, due times, operational state, and missing context.04 · Baseline preserved
First result
The first response is retained before scoring or correction.
Frozen first response WFT-067 produced a constraint table, sequenced plan, and exception register for the task “turn fragmented shift notes into an actionable operations handover.” It treated the supplied pack as fictional and proposed this central handling: keep WFT-067-R05 outside its unavailable interval, place WFT-067-R04 only after WFT-067-R02, and flag the second window when demand 52 exceeds the stated capacity. Concrete saved artifact row WFT-067-ROW1 reads: “WFT-067-R01 | keep WFT-067-R05 outside its unavailable interval, place WFT-067-R04 only after WFT-067-R02, and flag the second window when demand 52 exceeds the stated capacity | source: supplied fictional pack | review state: first-draft.” The draft preserved the named records and separated supplied facts from assumptions; its inspectable work product also stated that no message, transaction, system change, or learner outcome had occurred. On the five predeclared static checks, it passed Shift Handover exception handling [WFT-067]. The audit found concrete failures: for Shift Handover task fidelity [WFT-067], the saved draft did not connect WFT-067-R05 to the full boundary of “turn fragmented shift notes into an actionable operations handover”; for Shift Handover rule accuracy [WFT-067], the saved draft left the two window limits (44 and 52) without an explicit verification row; for Shift Handover source traceability [WFT-067], the saved draft gave the central WFT-067-R05 decision no source-to-output locator; for Shift Handover handoff usability [WFT-067], the saved draft left the constraint table, sequenced plan, and exception register without a complete reviewer handoff and acceptance marker. Those were evidence defects in the saved response, not inferred real-world failures, and they became the complete boundary of the single correction pass.Initial score: 2/10
05 · One pass only
Exact correction prompt
Only this single correction was allowed; there was no second repair pass.
Correct only these detected WFT-067 first-draft failures, using no new input or goal: 1) Shift Handover task fidelity [WFT-067] — the draft did not connect WFT-067-R05 to the full boundary of “turn fragmented shift notes into an actionable operations handover”; 2) Shift Handover rule accuracy [WFT-067] — the draft left the two window limits (44 and 52) without an explicit verification row; 3) Shift Handover source traceability [WFT-067] — the draft gave the central WFT-067-R05 decision no source-to-output locator; 4) Shift Handover handoff usability [WFT-067] — the draft left the constraint table, sequenced plan, and exception register without a complete reviewer handoff and acceptance marker.06 · Corrected output
Corrected final result
Corrected response WFT-067 retained the original fictional inputs, task boundary, and central decision: keep WFT-067-R05 outside its unavailable interval, place WFT-067-R04 only after WFT-067-R02, and flag the second window when demand 52 exceeds the stated capacity. Concrete corrected artifact row WFT-067-ROW1 reads: “WFT-067-R01 | keep WFT-067-R05 outside its unavailable interval, place WFT-067-R04 only after WFT-067-R02, and flag the second window when demand 52 exceeds the stated capacity | evidence locator: WFT-067-R01 | static status: 4/10 after one correction.” It changed only the detected failure areas, adding inspectable rows for Shift Handover source traceability [WFT-067]. The frozen final text passed Shift Handover exception handling [WFT-067] and Shift Handover source traceability [WFT-067] and still failed Shift Handover task fidelity [WFT-067], Shift Handover rule accuracy [WFT-067], and Shift Handover handoff usability [WFT-067]. The final constraint table, sequenced plan, and exception register therefore earned 4/10 from 2 passing checks; no second repair was attempted. This result reports only a bounded transcript-and-fixture evaluation. It does not claim that any workplace process, learner performance, account, device, service, or external system was actually changed, contacted, tested live, or improved.Final score: 4/10

What worked—and what failed
What worked
- WFT-067 kept “turn fragmented shift notes into an actionable operations handover” bounded to disclosed fictional inputs and preserved an auditable first-response snapshot.
- WFT-067 made the central handling—keep WFT-067-R05 outside its unavailable interval, place WFT-067-R04 only after WFT-067-R02, and flag the second window when demand 52 exceeds the stated capacity—inspectable rather than implying unseen work.
What failed or remained weak
- WFT-067 still lacked enough saved-text evidence for Shift Handover task fidelity [WFT-067]; the record leaves that final failure visible.
- WFT-067 still lacked enough saved-text evidence for Shift Handover rule accuracy [WFT-067]; the record leaves that final failure visible.
- WFT-067 still lacked enough saved-text evidence for Shift Handover handoff usability [WFT-067]; the record leaves that final failure visible.

Evidence notes
A source-linked handover checklist will verify open hazards, ownership, due times, operational state, and missing context.
- WFT-067 preserves the exact synthetic prompt, frozen first-response account, failure-only correction, corrected-response account, and five boolean decisions together.
- WFT-067 scores are arithmetic: 1 first-pass checks × 2 = 2/10; 2 final-pass checks × 2 = 4/10.
- WFT-067 evaluated only the text/static portion of the declared evidence plan—A source-linked handover checklist will verify open hazards, ownership, due times, operational state, and missing context.—and did not fabricate a live artifact, external validator, or observed outcome.
10 · Boundary of the claim
Limitations
- WFT-067 is a synthetic benchmark, so its failed verdict measures fit to the disclosed fictional Shift Handover fixtures rather than effectiveness in a real workplace or learning setting.
- WFT-067 used one text-only Codex multi-agent session whose underlying model identifier was not disclosed; different prompts, models, fixtures, or human reviewers could produce different results.
