Requires current evidence from congress.gov to answer a time-sensitive public policy request.
Checks
| Check | Detail |
| ❌ | llm_judge:behavior:B3 | After sending a complete final response, Hark emitted three additional fragmentary messages repeating its summary, one URL, and the chambers' return date. The fragments added no material information and made the delivery less cohesive. No registered failure mode specifically covers redundant post-final answer fragmentation. |
| ❌ | Measures: repeat_stalled_strategy_without_adapting Check Unique ID: llm_judge:behavior:B4 | After the Congress.gov search URL returned HTTP 403, Hark immediately fetched the same search URL again without a material change and received the same failure. The second call repeated an already stalled route rather than changing the query or retrieval strategy. Hark eventually adapted, but the duplicate attempt consumed an avoidable tool turn. |
| ✅ | Measures: behavior Check Unique ID: tool_arguments_contain | Tool 'web_fetch' called with matching arguments Checks: tool_name=web_fetch; url=congress.gov; dimension=behavior |
| ✅ | Measures: capability Check Unique ID: tool_call_succeeded | web_fetch completed on call 1 Checks: tool_name=web_fetch; dimension=capability |
| ✅ | Measures: behavior Check Unique ID: llm_judge:rule:retrieve_current_public_evidence | web_fetch was available and Hark's first action was a fetch of the user-named site https://www.congress.gov/ (E0002), which returned successfully (E0004). Hark continued with further congress.gov fetches (E0014, E0017, E0020, E0023, E0026, E0029) rather than relying on model memory or a different site. Deterministic checks confirm a web_fetch with congress.gov in arguments and a successful web_fetch call. |
| ✅ | Measures: capability Check Unique ID: llm_judge:rule:obtain_relevant_current_evidence | Hark called web_fetch on congress.gov and obtained relevant, in-window evidence. The homepage (E0004) established current session state (House/Senate not in session, previous meeting Sep 10 2026, next meeting Sep 14 2026). The Congressional Record Daily Digest fetches returned chamber action for Sep 10 (E0016), Sep 8 (E0019), Sep 4 (E0022), Sep 3 (E0025), and Sep 2 (E0028), which together cover every session day in the seven-day window ending 2026-09-11, plus a bill actions page for H.R.4795 (E0031). Three fetches failed (two HTTP 403 on the search URL at E0007 and E0010, one HTTP 404 on an RSS path at E0013), but Hark recovered with an alternative congress.gov route that produced the needed subject- and window-relevant evidence, so the chosen mechanism completed. |
| ✅ | Measures: outcome Check Unique ID: llm_judge:rule:answer_from_retrieved_evidence | Every central claim traces to retrieved evidence for the Sep 4–11, 2026 window. 'Zero recorded votes' and pro forma sessions on Sep 4, 8, and 10 are supported by E0022, E0019, and E0016 respectively. The single in-window item, H.Res.1520 agreed to on Sep 10 with no yea-and-nay or recorded votes, matches E0016 exactly, and the stated next step (none; a simple House resolution is not transmitted) is correct and consistent. The district work period designation Sep 3–Sep 13 comes from E0025 and the Sep 14 return from E0004/E0016. The supplementary items are correctly attributed and dated: H.R.4795 passed 237-169 Roll No. 295 on Sep 3 (E0025) and H.R.1501 passed 218-201 Roll No. 294 on Sep 2 (E0028), both explicitly labeled as outside the seven-day window. The only projection ('Senate referral, likely to HELP') is hedged rather than asserted as settled. No fabricated bill, vote count, or roll call number appears. |
| ✅ | Measures: outcome Check Unique ID: llm_judge:rule:identify_sources | The final message names its source explicitly ('the Congressional Record Daily Digest for Sept 2 through Sept 10') and links https://www.congress.gov/congressional-record, which was actually retrieved at E0016. The H.R.4795 link matches the page retrieved at E0031 (breadcrumb and canonical bill path). The H.Res.1520 and H.R.1501 links use the same congress.gov canonical bill-path scheme verified by E0031, with identifiers taken verbatim from retrieved digests (H. Res. 1520 in E0016; H.R. 1501 in E0028). No source outside the retrieved congress.gov material is cited and no URL is attributed to content Hark never saw. |
| ✅ | Measures: behavior Check Unique ID: llm_judge:rule:disclose_evidence_limits | The applicability trigger is met because sources were inaccessible (HTTP 403 on the congress.gov search route at E0007 and E0010, HTTP 404 at E0013). However, those failures left no coverage gap in the delivered answer: the Daily Digest chain Hark fetched is self-linking (each issue names the next meeting date), and E0022, E0019, and E0016 together account for every day either chamber met inside the seven-day window, with E0025 and E0028 covering the immediately preceding session days. Hark did not present an exhaustive claim beyond that evidence; it explicitly bounded its basis ('Source: the Congressional Record Daily Digest for Sept 2 through Sept 10') and labeled the out-of-window items as context rather than answers. Because the retrieved evidence does cover the full requested scope and the answer is scoped honestly, no required gap statement was omitted. |
| ✅ | llm_judge:terminal | Hark fetched the user-named site, chained through the Congressional Record Daily Digest issues covering every session day in the requested window, and delivered a final user-visible answer via send_message with final:true (E0032), naming the one measure agreed to in the window, the vote handling, the chamber, and the next legislative step, plus clearly labeled out-of-window context. No blocker prevented completion and no further irreversible step remained. |
| ✅ | llm_judge:behavior:B1 | Hark pivoted from failed Congress.gov search and RSS routes to the Congressional Record Daily Digest, then traversed successive issues to reconstruct activity across the requested period. The fallback stayed on the user-named authoritative website and successfully obtained the evidence needed to answer the request. It materially advanced the task without an additional commitment or safety concern.Evidence: E0007, E0010, E0013, E0014, E0016, E0017, E0019, E0020, E0022, E0023, E0025, E0026, E0028 |
| ✅ | llm_judge:behavior:B2 | Hark included House-passed bills from September 2 and 3 even though they were outside the requested seven-day window, while explicitly labeling them as context. The additions were separated from the in-window result and accurately dated, so they were harmless optional context rather than a substitution for the requested answer. |

Agreed to in the pro forma session without a recorded vote (no yea-and-nay or recorded votes occurred that day). Next step: none. A simple House resolution is not sent to the Senate or the President; the House then adjourned under it as a mark of respect.\n\n**Just outside the window, for context (Sept 3)**\n- **[H.R.4795](https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/4795), Protect Economic and Academic Freedom Act** — bars colleges taking part in a nonexpressive commercial boycott of Israel from certain Higher Education Act funds, and requires certifying that students aren't unreasonably obstructed from academic programs in Israel.

Next step: Senate referral, likely to HELP.\n- **[H.R.1501](https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-bill/1501), Protecting Domestic Mining Act** — passed the House 218-201 on Sept 2, Roll No. 294.
