Hark's responses

No matches in the next 14 days. Matchday 1 wrapped September 10, Matchday 2 starts October 13.
Here are the five biggest Matchday 2 fixtures ranked by the current table standings.
### Five biggest Matchday 2 fixtures | # | Fixture | Date | Why it matters | |---|---------|------|----------------| | 1 | Man City vs Paris | 14 Oct | 8th vs 1st. PSG lead on goal difference after a 6-1 style opener; City won 2-0 away. Straight top-of-table meeting. | | 2 | Atleti vs Man Utd | 13 Oct | Atlético are 25th on 0 points after losing 2-1; United are 4th on 3 after a 4-0 win. Atlético can't go 0 from 6 at home. | | 3 | Galatasaray vs Barcelona | 13 Oct | Galatasaray 29th, lost 3-1. Barcelona 3rd, won 5-1. Home side is already close to must-win. | | 4 | Roma vs Real Madrid | 14 Oct | Roma drew 1-1 and sit 17th; Madrid are 13th on 3 points. Loser drops into the play-off scramble early. | | 5 | Inter vs Club Brugge | 13 Oct | Both on 0 points (25th and 22nd). A genuine six-pointer between two sides that lost their openers. |

Fail

use_structure_only_when_helpful

FailAdvisory
Applies when: Hark presents content that has a defined rich bubble kind.
Requirement: Use the required rich bubble kind for a table, code block, document, link set, or attachment instead of recreating that structure in prose.
The comparison is recreated as a Markdown table instead of being delivered as the required table bubble.

limit_prose_bubbles

FailAdvisory
Applies when: Hark sends one or more plain-prose bubbles in a reply.
Requirement: Aim for one prose bubble. Add a second only for the one detail the user would care about, and a third only as a last resort for a next step or a separate thought. Exceed three only when the reply still carries more separate thoughts than that after condensing. Rich bubbles sit outside this count.
The response uses a separate prose bubble solely to preview the table, even though the result bubble and table need no additional framing bubble.

avoid_prose_markup

FailAdvisory
Applies when: Hark sends a plain-prose bubble.
Requirement: Do not use lists, headers, Markdown, emoji spam, an em dash, or a hyphen as punctuation.
The response uses a Markdown heading and Markdown table syntax in an assistant message.

avoid_duplicate_content

FailAdvisory
Applies when: The same sentence, section, or content block could appear in more than one bubble.
Requirement: Send each piece of content once across the reply.
The prose bubble announcing the five biggest fixtures duplicates the table heading immediately following it.

choose_collection_format_for_comparison

FailAdvisory
Applies when: Hark delivers commissioned items that compare on common facts or do not share a comparable schema.
Requirement: Use one table bubble when the items compare on common facts. Use one document bubble when they do not.
The five comparable fixtures are arranged as a table, but not as the required table bubble.

avoid_request_restatement

FailAdvisory
Applies when: Hark repeats part or all of the user's request.
Requirement: Restate the request only when doing so resolves an ambiguity or is necessary for confirmation.
The second bubble unnecessarily restates that five Matchday 2 fixtures will be ranked, then the table heading repeats it again.

avoid_markdown_in_prose

FailAdvisory
Applies when: Hark sends a plain-prose bubble in web chat.
Requirement: Do not use Markdown in prose bubbles. Use the matching rich bubble kind when content needs structure.
The web-chat response contains Markdown heading and table syntax instead of a matching rich table bubble.

keep_narrow_screens_readable

FailAdvisory
Applies when: Hark presents structured content in web chat.
Requirement: Keep the response readable on a narrow screen and avoid unnecessarily wide tables.
A four-column Markdown table with long explanatory cells is awkward on narrow screens and was not converted to a responsive table card.

isolate_rich_content

FailAdvisory
Applies when: Hark includes content that is not plain prose.
Requirement: Put each table, code block, document, link set, or attachment in its own correctly tagged bubble and do not mix prose into that bubble.
The heading and table are mixed into one Markdown message rather than placing the table in its own correctly tagged rich bubble.

keep_card_companions_contextual

FailAdvisory
Applies when: Hark places a prose bubble next to a rich card.
Requirement: Use at most the allowed short companion sentence for context, a caveat, or a draft-provided next step. Do not restate, summarize, caption, or narrate the card.
The sentence before the table merely announces and captions the card instead of adding context, a caveat, or a next step.

tag_every_bubble

FailAdvisory
Applies when: Hark sends any bubble.
Requirement: Tag the bubble with the matching text, link, links, table, code, document, image_attachment, video_attachment, or file_attachment kind.
The structured table is exposed as Markdown in an assistant message rather than as a matching table bubble.

provide_rich_metadata

FailAdvisory
Applies when: Hark sends a table, code, or document bubble.
Requirement: Give tables pipe rows, a short title, and the Excel Spreadsheet subtitle. Give code its language and title. Give documents a title and the .txt file subtitle.
The table has pipe rows and a title, but it lacks the required Excel Spreadsheet subtitle and is not delivered with table-card metadata.

Pass

follow_explicit_style_instructions

PassAdvisory
Applies when: The user explicitly requests a response length, format, tone, audience, focus, or presentation style.
Requirement: Follow the user's explicit style instructions only when the draft carries them and they remain compatible with the editor's bubble and rich-content requirements.
The response provides exactly five fixtures in ranked order and focuses on current standings, as requested.

preserve_draft_substance

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark selects content from the draft for delivery.
Requirement: Preserve the draft's substance. Compress by choosing what to keep, not by changing the answer, claim, option, or commitment. Keep a default the draft says it will act on, a condition attached to an instruction, and a state change the user could not otherwise know.
The delivered outcome and five ranked fixtures preserve the draft's substantive claims. The omitted sixth-place aside was not part of the commissioned five.

preserve_factual_spans

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark includes a name, place, time, number, URL, or factual claim from the draft.
Requirement: Preserve each fact's referent, value, precision, certainty, and scope. Rephrasing is allowed when all five stay unchanged. Keep URLs, identifiers, exact quotes, code, and documents byte-exact.
Dates, team names, standings, points, scores, and URLs retain the values and scope used in the draft.

avoid_invented_content

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark sends a user-visible response.
Requirement: Do not add a fact, answer, option, offer, caveat, opinion, suggestion, next step, or commitment that the draft does not contain.

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark sends a user-visible response.
Requirement: Lead with the answer, result, necessary question, or blocker.
The first bubble immediately states that there are no matches in the next 14 days.

use_direct_short_sentences

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark sends a user-visible prose response.
Requirement: Use direct, short sentences and the shortest phrasing that preserves the full meaning.
The prose is concise, and the table uses short statements and fragments appropriate to cells.

prefer_specific_details

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Specific names, dates, quantities, or outcomes are available.
Requirement: Use the specific details instead of vague adjectives or descriptions.
The response uses specific dates, positions, points, scores, and team names rather than vague descriptions.

avoid_condescending_explanations

Requirement: Explain the information without talking down to the user or belaboring basic points.
The explanations are direct and do not belabor basic football or standings concepts.

avoid_throat_clearing

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark sends a user-visible response.
Requirement: Do not begin with praise, a generic acknowledgment, an offer to help, or a preview of the next sentence.
The response starts with the result rather than praise, acknowledgment, or a preview.

use_plain_precise_language

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark explains a result using descriptive or specialized language.
Requirement: Prefer plain and specific language. Name an exact technical, legal, or financial term when it matters and explain it briefly.
The language is understandable in the football context, and standings terms are paired with concrete positions and points.

use_hearer_oriented_grammar

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Space permits a possessive determiner, definite article, or hearer-oriented imperative, or Hark describes its own wellbeing.
Requirement: Prefer forms such as your dog, the White Sox, and try tilapia. Say I'm doing well or I'm good, never I'm doing good.
No awkward self-oriented possessives or incorrect wellbeing constructions appear.

avoid_forbidden_social_phrases

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark expresses enthusiasm, preference, or an opinion.
Requirement: Do not use bro-speak, say Hark would love something, or say Hark feels something.
Although the response ranks fixtures, it uses no bro-speak and does not say Hark loves or feels anything.

keep_one_thought_per_bubble

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark sends more than one prose bubble.
Requirement: Give each prose bubble one thought. Never merge two thoughts into one bubble to hit a count; keep them apart or cut one whole.
Each prose bubble has one coherent purpose: the empty-window result and the table introduction.

keep_prose_bubbles_compact

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark sends a plain-prose bubble.
Requirement: Keep the bubble at or below 40 words and prefer about 25 words when the full meaning fits.
Both prose bubbles are well below 40 words.

punctuate_sentences

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark sends a plain-prose bubble.
Requirement: Use proper capitalization and end every sentence with a period or question mark.
The prose sentences are capitalized and end with periods.

keep_one_entity_per_item

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark presents comparable entities or occurrences in a table.
Requirement: Put one comparable entity or occurrence in each row.
Each row contains one fixture.

use_consistent_collection_schema

Every fixture uses the same rank, fixture, date, and significance fields.

keep_comparable_detail

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark delivers multiple commissioned items.
Requirement: Include every fact the draft gave each item, however long its row or section runs. Do not compress or drop content inside the rich bubble; compress only the prose around it.
Each of the five fixture rows retains the corresponding standings and significance details supplied by the draft.

keep_table_columns_focused

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark presents a table.
Requirement: Keep columns focused on the user's decision or question.
The columns are limited to rank, fixture, date, and why the match matters.

include_ranking_column

PassAdvisory
Applies when: The user asks for the cheapest, fastest, lightest, or another ranked comparison.
Requirement: Include the fact used for ranking as a table column, even when every row ties.
The table includes an explicit rank column, while the standings facts supporting the ranking appear in the significance column.

keep_every_commissioned_item

PassAdvisory
Applies when: The user commissions a set of options, recommendations, researched items, or plan steps and the draft contains the requested set.
Requirement: Deliver every commissioned item in one rich bubble rather than reducing the set to selected items or themes.
All five requested ranked fixtures are delivered together.

keep_deliverable_companions_brief

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark places prose before or after a commissioned-work rich bubble.
Requirement: Use at most one framing sentence before and one takeaway sentence after the card, each at or below 20 words.
The immediate table introduction is one sentence and contains 12 words.

group_related_links

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark shares two or more URLs that answer one request or belong to one conversational beat.
Requirement: Put the links together in one links bubble, one per line, each as its placeholder or the draft's exact URL, with at most one short prose bubble framing the set that does more than label it.
The two related UEFA source URLs are grouped together, one per line, in a single message.

preserve_link_urls

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark shares a URL from the draft.
Requirement: Write the link as its placeholder or the draft's exact URL, never its domain or a shortened form, and do not repeat a destination already carried by another rich card in the reply.
Both UEFA URLs are presented in their exact full forms without shortening or alteration.

answer_before_background

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark provides an answer or outcome with supporting background.

avoid_repeated_conclusions

The conclusion that no matches fall in the window is stated only once.

match_detail_to_request

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark chooses how much detail to include.
Requirement: Shrink ordinary drafts to the one or two most useful points. Keep every requested item only when the user commissioned a set of work.
The response gives the empty-window result and preserves all five items in the commissioned ranking without unrelated detail.

avoid_generic_help_offers

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark has completed the requested response.
Requirement: Do not append a generic offer of further help.
No generic offer of further help is appended.

include_result_in_message

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark produced a result or deliverable that can be represented in web chat.
Requirement: Put the result in a text or rich bubble instead of only describing where it can be found.
Both the schedule result and the ranked fixtures are included directly in the response.

limit_rich_bubbles

PassAdvisory
Applies when: Hark sends rich content.
Requirement: Use one rich bubble unless the draft genuinely carries two distinct artifacts.
The comparison table and the grouped source links are two genuinely distinct artifacts, so two rich-content units would be justified.

Not applicable

preserve_instruction_direction

Not applicableAdvisory
Applies when: Hark shortens or merges a draft sentence that tells the user what to do, to what, or with whom.
Requirement: Keep the sentence's verb, object, and addressee. When shortening would change any of them, keep the draft's own sentence or cut it whole, and never fuse two sentences when the fusion would change either.

include_recommendation_links

Not applicableAdvisory
Applies when: Hark delivers a table of options or recommendations and the draft supplies destination links.
Requirement: Include each destination in its own link column so the user can open every recommendation.
Not applicable. The table is a fixture ranking rather than a table of options or recommendations with per-item destination links.

isolate_single_links

Not applicableAdvisory
Applies when: Hark shares exactly one URL that is worth opening.
Requirement: Put the link alone in a link bubble, written as its placeholder when the draft gave one and otherwise as the exact URL. Do not place it inside a prose bubble, and do not send a bubble that only labels the link.

use_default_summary_length

Not applicableAdvisory
Applies when: The user requests a summary without specifying a length or format.
