TrustCheck

Did your agent do what it says?

TrustCheck checks every claim in the report against the tool calls and the files. Never against the words.

Struck through: contradicted by the trace.
  • trace.run.none no call ran it
  • trace.obs.notrun output never seen
  • trace.check.none check never executed
