reality_test real_003: 40-query paraphrase stress + extractor extension
Stress-tests the role gate with 40 queries (10 fill_events rows × 4
styles): need, client_first, looking, shorthand. Each row's role +
client + city stays the same; only the surface phrasing changes.
real_003 (original extractor) confirmed the shorthand-vs-shorthand
failure mode: CNC Operator shorthand recording leaked w-2404 onto
Forklift Operator shorthand query within the same Beacon Freight
Detroit cluster. Both record + query had empty role (extractor
returns "" for shorthand because there's no separator between role
and city), gate disabled, distance check passed, bleed fired.
Fix: extended extractRoleFromNeed to handle client_first
("{client} needs N {role} in...") and looking ("Looking for N
{role} at...") patterns. Shorthand left intentionally unmatched —
"Forklift Operator Detroit" is shape-indistinguishable from
"Forklift" + "Operator Detroit" without an LLM extractor or known-
cities lookup.
real_003b (extended extractor) verifies bleed closed across all 4
styles for this dataset. Forklift Operator queries keep w-2136 (the
cold-pass-correct match) regardless of which style the query came
in. Same-role boosts now fire correctly across styles — a CNC
Operator recording made in `looking` style boosts the CNC need-form
query.
scripts/cutover/gen_real_queries.go: added -styles flag with values
need|client_first|looking|shorthand|all (default need preserves
real_001/002 behavior). Tests/reality/real_coord_queries_v2.txt is
the 40-query stress file.
scripts/playbook_lift/main_test.go: 10 sub-tests lock the four
documented patterns + shorthand limitation + lift-suite-style
queries (no clean role, returns empty as expected).
Aggregate metrics:
- real_003 (original): disc=7, lift=7, boost=14, meanΔ=-0.108
- real_003b (extended): disc=11, lift=10, boost=31, meanΔ=-0.202
The growth reflects more LEGITIMATE same-role same-cluster transfer
firing across styles, not bleed (verified by per-cluster bleed
table — Forklift Operator queries unchanged across all 4 styles).
Known limitation documented in real_003_findings.md: same-cluster,
same-role queries in shorthand still embed close enough that a
shorthand recording could bleed onto a different-role shorthand
query if both record + query strip role. Closing this requires
LLM extraction or known-cities lookup at record + query time.

# Reality test real_003 / real_003b — paraphrase stress + extractor extension
|
||||
|
||||
40 queries (10 fill_events rows × 4 query styles) re-run twice:
|
||||
- **real_003**: with the original `extractRoleFromNeed` regex (only
|
||||
matches `^Need\s+\d+\s+\S+\s+in\s+` — the real_001 form)
|
||||
- **real_003b**: with the extractor extended to also handle
|
||||
`client_first` (`{client} needs N {role} in...`) and `looking`
|
||||
(`Looking for N {role} at...`). Shorthand still falls through to
|
||||
empty role.
|
||||
|
||||
## Headline
|
||||
|
||||
real_003 (original extractor): **shorthand-vs-shorthand bleed
|
||||
confirmed**. The CNC Operator shorthand recording leaked `w-2404`
|
||||
onto the Forklift Operator shorthand query within the same Beacon
|
||||
Freight Detroit cluster — both record + query had empty role, gate
|
||||
disabled, distance check passed, bleed fired.
|
||||
|
||||
real_003b (extended extractor): **bleed closed for the queried side
|
||||
across all 4 styles**. Forklift Operator queries keep `w-2136` (the
|
||||
cold-pass-correct match) regardless of which style the query came
|
||||
in. Same-role boosts now fire correctly across styles — a CNC
|
||||
Operator recording made in `looking` style boosts the CNC need-form
|
||||
query.
|
||||
|
||||
## Per-style behavior — real_003 (original extractor)
|
||||
|
||||
| Style | Bleed? | Explanation |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| `need` | none observed | Role extracted on both record + query side |
|
||||
| `client_first` | none observed | Role NOT extracted, but no recording in this style happened to surface near a different-role query in real_003 |
|
||||
| `looking` | none observed | Same as client_first |
|
||||
| `shorthand` | **`w-2404` from CNC bled onto Forklift Operator** | Both record and query empty role → gate disabled → distance check passed |
|
||||
|
||||
The single observed bleed case in real_003:
|
||||
- Q#40 (`1 CNC Operator Detroit MI 17:30 Beacon Freight`) recorded
|
||||
`w-2404` with `Role: ""` (extractor returned empty for shorthand).
|
||||
- Q#4 (`1 Forklift Operator Detroit MI 15:00 Beacon Freight`) embedded
|
||||
within ~0.137 cosine of Q#40 (same client + city + count + time
|
||||
tokens dominate the embedding).
|
||||
- `roleEqual("", "")` returned true (empty disables) → injection
|
||||
fired → warm top-1 for Forklift Operator became `w-2404`.
|
||||
|
||||
## Per-style behavior — real_003b (extended extractor)
|
||||
|
||||
After adding patterns for `client_first` and `looking`:
|
||||
|
||||
| Style | Role extracted? | Cross-role bleed observed? |
|
||||
|---|---|---|
|
||||
| `need` | yes | none |
|
||||
| `client_first` | yes | none |
|
||||
| `looking` | yes | none |
|
||||
| `shorthand` | no | none in this dataset |
|
||||
|
||||
No bleed observed in real_003b across any style. Pickers + CNC
|
||||
Operator queries pick up their own role's recording across styles;
|
||||
Forklift Operator queries keep the cold-pass-correct match.
|
||||
|
||||
## Why the shorthand failure mode didn't fire in real_003b
|
||||
|
||||
The extended extractor closes the bleed at the **query** side: for
|
||||
`need`, `client_first`, `looking`, the queryRole is non-empty, so a
|
||||
recording with empty role gets `roleEqual(role, "")` = true (lenient)
|
||||
but the inverse — a non-empty queryRole gating a recording — is the
|
||||
real defense.
|
||||
|
||||
Wait — that's the same lenient semantic. So why isn't there a bleed?
|
||||
|
||||
Two reasons real_003b's data didn't trigger one:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **The Pickers shorthand recording** has `Role: ""`. Forklift Operator
|
||||
queries embed > 0.20 cosine from "4 Pickers Detroit MI ..." because
|
||||
"Pickers" vs "Forklift Operator" provides enough semantic separation
|
||||
even within the same client+city cluster. The distance gate caught
|
||||
what the role gate let through.
|
||||
2. **No Forklift Operator recording** existed (judge said cold top-1
|
||||
was already correct, rating 5, no playbook needed). The
|
||||
most-likely-to-bleed scenario — a Forklift recording in shorthand
|
||||
leaking onto Pickers/CNC — didn't have ammunition.
|
||||
|
||||
If a future dataset has multiple roles per cluster all hitting shorthand
|
||||
recordings, the bleed could return. **Mitigation candidates** (none
|
||||
implemented):
|
||||
|
||||
- **LLM-based role extraction** at record + query time. Robust, slow.
|
||||
- **Known-cities lookup table** to detect city boundary in shorthand
|
||||
(`{role} {city}` separator). 50 US states + ~5000 cities = small
|
||||
static table. Fast, brittle on new cities.
|
||||
- **Strict gate semantics**: empty role on either side = REJECT
|
||||
(instead of allow). Closes shorthand-vs-shorthand bleeds completely
|
||||
but breaks lift-suite multi-constraint queries that have no clean
|
||||
single role.
|
||||
|
||||
## Aggregate metrics
|
||||
|
||||
| Run | n | discoveries | lifts | boost_total | meanΔ |
|
||||
|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|---:|
|
||||
| real_003 (original extractor) | 40 | 7 | 7 | 14 | -0.108 |
|
||||
| real_003b (extended extractor) | 40 | 11 | 10 | 31 | -0.202 |
|
||||
|
||||
real_003b's higher discoveries + boost_total reflect the extractor
|
||||
catching role on 3 of 4 styles instead of 1 of 4 — which means more
|
||||
recordings land with a usable Role and more queries find them on warm
|
||||
pass. The growth is *legitimate same-role same-cluster transfer*, not
|
||||
bleed.
|
||||
|
||||
`meanΔ` direction is style-dependent: real_002 shrank `meanΔ` (cross-role
|
||||
bleeds removed → less over-boosting); real_003b grew it (more
|
||||
legitimate deep boosts fire). The metric isn't a clean fingerprint
|
||||
either direction — read the per-cluster bleed table for actual signal.

||||
