Can BlazeSQL handle a change in the user's request during a conversation?

BlazeSQL failed to shift from the first-turn Texas filter to the broader all-states answer. In the second turn it dropped the filter but returned a state-by-state breakdown instead of the overall 12% rate; the export totals 100 orders and 12 cancellations, so the missing figure was available.

The test case

Each test case is judged on its own: Pass, Fail, Not gradable, or Untested. The scenario result above is based on this test case.

Drop the filter, go all segmentsFailEvidence
What we sent

Input 1: “What's our cancellation rate for orders shipped to Texas?”

Input 2: “What's our cancellation rate across all states?”

What the tool returned

Response 1 replies to Input 1.

Response 2 replies to Input 1.

Response 3 replies to Input 2.

Response to input 1 (message 1 of 2) Generated query: Texas Order Cancellation Rate SELECT COUNT(*) AS total_orders, COUNT(*) FILTER (WHERE status = 'cancelled') AS cancelled_orders, ROUND( 100.0 * COUNT(*) FILTER (WHERE status = 'cancelled') / COUNT(*), 2 ) AS cancellation_rate_pct FROM orders WHERE state ILIKE '%texas%' OR state ILIKE 'TX' Query logic: 1. Filter orders to only those shipped to Texas (checking both full name and abbreviation case-insensitively). 2. Count total orders and orders with a 'cancelled' status. 3. Compute the cancellation rate as a percentage rounded to 2 decimal places. That result looks off — 7 orders total for Texas is suspiciously low. Let me check how state values are stored in the database before concluding. Generated query: Distinct State Values in Orders SELECT state, COUNT(*) AS order_count FROM orders GROUP BY state ORDER BY order_count DESC Query logic: 1. Group all orders by the state column and count orders per state. 2. Order by count descending to quickly spot dominant values and see how states are formatted. Response to input 1 (message 2 of 2) States are stored as abbreviations, and TX only has 7 orders — but let me also verify there aren't Texas orders hiding in delivery_address with a null or missing state. Generated query: Texas Orders Missing from State Column SELECT id, state, delivery_address FROM orders WHERE (delivery_address ILIKE '%texas%' OR delivery_address ILIKE '%, TX%') AND (state IS NULL OR state != 'TX') Query logic: 1. Search the delivery_address column for mentions of 'Texas' or ', TX'. 2. Filter to only rows where the state column is null or not already set to 'TX', to identify any mismatched or missing records. No results Good news — no Texas orders are hiding in delivery_address with a missing/wrong state. The data looks consistent. So to recap: • States are stored as abbreviations (e.g., TX), and my original query already handled that • 7 total orders for TX is the accurate count — it’s just a small sample in this dataset • 0 cancellations were found among those 7 orders, giving a 0% cancellation rate for Texas Would you like to compare this against other states, or dig deeper into any other metric? Response to input 2 Generated query: Cancellation Rate by State SELECT state, COUNT(*) AS total_orders, COUNT(*) FILTER (WHERE status = 'cancelled') AS cancelled_orders, ROUND( 100.0 * COUNT(*) FILTER (WHERE status = 'cancelled') / COUNT(*), 2 ) AS cancellation_rate_pct FROM orders GROUP BY state ORDER BY cancellation_rate_pct DESC Query logic: 1. Group all orders by state. 2. Count total orders and cancelled orders per state. 3. Compute cancellation rate as a percentage, rounded to 2 decimal places. 4. Order by cancellation rate descending to surface the highest rates first. A few standout observations: • WA (50%) and NC (40%) have the highest cancellation rates, though both have small order volumes (4–5 orders), so take with a grain of salt • GA (37.5%) and CA (28.57%) also stand out with higher-volume cancellations worth investigating • TX, IL, TN, CO, MN, OR, RI, NV, OH all have a 0% cancellation rate Worth noting that some states have very few orders, which inflates their rates. Would you like to dig into why orders are being cancelled in the high-rate states, or set a minimum order threshold to filter out low-volume states?

Why this result

It is a fail because the second turn had to give the overall cancellation rate, but it split the answer by state and never stated the overall 12%, even though the export totals made that figure available.

Also observed in this test case

First count check. The product questioned its first Texas count, checked the state fields, and then confirmed zero cancellations for Texas.

Second answer matches. The second turn's numbers matched the export, and the reply used the same cancelled-status rule on both turns.

Follow-up stayed narrow. The first turn offered to compare Texas with other states, but the second turn still answered by state instead of overall.

How this scenario is graded

How we decide Pass, Fail and Not gradable. The same rules apply to every tool tested on this scenario.

How results are decided

Each test case gets one result per tool: Pass, Fail or Not gradable. A test case we haven't run yet shows Untested. There are no partial results.

The rules
  • Pass: the tool did everything the test expected, and nothing it said contradicts the correct answer.
  • Fail: at least one expected behaviour clearly didn't happen; the test case's result says which one and quotes the tool.
  • Not gradable: our evidence couldn't settle the outcome (for example a record we needed is missing). It is never counted as a fail, and the test case's result says what's missing.
