From 4c4620798ab98fb6fdbb453116237a7fe5612358 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Liam Crumm Date: Tue, 8 Sep 2026 18:32:37 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 1/8] fix(cli): run trace-only evaluations through the judge pipeline Import OTLP conversations into a new run with stable case IDs, source provenance, and preserved request/tool evidence. Reuse the normal judge and viewer paths without executing a target. Keep parse-only conversion explicit and fail incomplete evaluations without treating them as passes. Reuse the inference-row fingerprint helper from ASSERT PR #308 without its Langfuse integration.

From: Liam Crumm Date: Tue, 8 Sep 2026 18:54:06 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 2/8] fix(traces): preserve root outputs and historical tool actions Gate scoring on reconstructed evidence rather than raw output fields. Retain chain/agent outputs in completion order and deduplicate only explicit ancestor mirrors. Reconstruct structured historical tool calls and correlate receipts with captured actions by identity, including indexed OpenInference messages. Add regressions for both deep-review blockers, root/child ordering, historical call formats, nested histories, and reused call IDs.

[PATCH 3/8] fix(traces): retain receipt parts and preserve evidence order Normalize GenAI tool_call_response parts and ensure OpenInference agent outputs use one emission path. Process completed tools before tied snapshot inputs, preserve assistant text before actions, and place newly recovered historical context before its matched captured evidence. Cover each reproduced delta-review finding, zero-duration spans, ancestor mirrors, and mixed captured/history context.

From 059b567f8b5a31fddd44f87cb49090712bda90bd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Liam Crumm Date: Tue, 8 Sep 2026 19:47:04 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 4/8] fix(traces): respect causal ties and revalidate repeated receipts Order equal-time events using own-span, parent-span, and compatible history-extension dependencies rather than phase priorities alone. Keep recovered context before every matched parallel action and restore receipt correlations across common history prefixes. Add regressions for reversed exports, zero-duration model/tool responses, parent-child ties, parallel completion order, repeated receipt conflicts across traces, and noncausal identical outputs.

Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Liam Crumm Date: Tue, 8 Sep 2026 20:14:53 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 5/8] fix(traces): distinguish fresh captures from repeated history Prefer a matching newly captured occurrence over common-prefix reuse while reserving captures for new suffix requests. Preserve receipt-conflict checks when no fresh execution exists. Compare conversation prefixes independently of system-instruction updates so prior actions are not duplicated. Cover fresh resets and continuing histories across trace IDs, reused call IDs, equal and different receipts, and changed system instructions.

Preserve identified history prefixes across unrelated wrappers and trace IDs. Repeated observations may move a captured binding only to a later completed capture with the matching receipt, never to an older or incomplete action. Add regressions for compatible prefix/history-only suffix allocation, repeated receipt conservation, and cross-trace wrapper replays.
