Not settled yet The benchmark tested this, but the models' answers do not settle yet whether they master it. 0 of 4 models in the current benchmark master it.
| Model | Tier | Probability of mastery | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| gemini-4-argon | Flagship | 90% | Not shown |
| gemini-3.5-flash-lite | Low cost | 47% | Not shown |
| gpt-6-luna | Low cost | 47% | Not shown |
| claude-haiku-5-5 | Low cost | 48% | Not shown |
Mastered means a probability of at least 90% that the model has this knobit, estimated from its graded answers. “Not shown” means the answers do not settle it either way. How the models are tested.
What it looks like in practice
Expected result: The decision, the principle and the exception needed
How it is assessed: Flags the deficient case and passes the acceptable one. Deficient: AD-008 lets product lines update their own customer copies; AP-001 one system of record per entity Acceptable: An exception with reason and approver, or the decision changed
