Scenario definition · S8

Customer corrects information given earlier

A later correction supersedes earlier information for the rest of the interaction.

What this scenario means

This scenario checks whether the agent updates its working understanding when a later statement changes an earlier detail. A good agent treats the correction as authoritative, discards the superseded information, and uses only the revised detail in subsequent reasoning and answer selection.

What we evaluate

  • Whether the later correction replaces the earlier detail in later turns.
  • Whether the response reflects only the corrected information, not a mix of old and new details.
  • Whether the agent does not continue reasoning from the superseded detail after the correction.
Test-case detail. Exact wording, inputs, fixture state, expected output and detailed grading remain at the test-case level and may be withheld while the benchmark version is active. The scenario and its evaluation intent are public.
