- The project lists 170 scenario concepts and five founding pilots, while explicitly reporting zero validated tasks so far.
Field notes
The proposed evaluation holds the task contract, tools, policies, hidden state, and verifier constant while comparing different voice modalities. Listed candidate scenarios include recovering from a checkout timeout without charging twice and assigning decisions from overlapping conversation. The page also describes consent choices, private-by-default raw audio, and a withdrawal path for recorded participants.
