FAIL
| Check | Detail | |
|---|---|---|
| ❌ | llm_judge:rule:offer_direct_account_linking | Hark was gathering budgeting inputs but never asked whether the user wanted to link checking, savings, or credit card accounts so Hark could pull numbers directly. The delivered messages cover take-home pay, fixed costs, priority, and output format only, with no linking offer, and no connector_accounts or setup_login activity appears anywhere in the trajectory. |
| ❌ | llm_judge:behavior:B1 | Hark told the user it did not find financial details in their email even though it had performed only one Gmail query limited to the previous 180 days, making the negative claim broader than the search evidence supported. A zero-result response establishes only that the specific query returned no matches within its scope. It does not establish that the mailbox contains no financial details more generally. |
| ❌ | llm_judge:behavior:B2 | Hark said it would use Bay Area estimates based on memory that did not confirm the user's current location. The memory snippet records only that Hark previously requested confirmation of a city near Santa Clara County; it does not record the user's confirmation or residence. The estimation basis was therefore presented without adequate support. |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:discover_financial_context_before_browser | Before any browser use (none occurred), Hark searched memory for budget/income/expense context (E0004/E0005) and ran a Gmail query covering statements, payroll, paystubs, direct deposit, rent, and mortgage over the last 180 days (E0006/E0008). The email search returned zero results, but the discovery step was performed prior to browsing. |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:collect_take_home_and_fixed_expenses | Hark explicitly asked for monthly take-home pay (after taxes) and big fixed costs including rent/mortgage, car, childcare, and insurance. |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:request_missing_budget_categories | The user supplied no categories in the one-line prompt. Hark asked the user to supply fixed-cost categories (rent, car, childcare, insurance) and told the user it would estimate the remainder with adjustable Bay Area figures, inviting correction. |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:keep_category_set_accessible | Not applicable. Hark never created or presented a budget in this run, so no category set exists to evaluate. |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:estimate_missing_amounts_from_user_context | Not applicable. No budget with amounts was produced; the run stopped at intake. Hark only stated an intent to use Bay Area estimates. Evidence: E0012 |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:collect_budgeting_priorities | Hark asked for the user's main priority: saving for something, paying down debt, or getting control. |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:recover_preferred_spreadsheet_format | Hark searched memory before proposing an output format, and the memory results surfaced prior format context (a previously offered choice between an editable Google Sheet and an in-chat budget, plus prior Google Drive delivery). Hark then proposed a Google Sheet consistent with that context and invited the user to choose otherwise. It also ran an email search in the same discovery pass. |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:deliver_budget_as_spreadsheet | Not applicable. Hark neither created a budget nor claimed one was complete; it explicitly deferred creation pending user inputs. |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:create_budget_cover_tab | Not applicable. No spreadsheet was created in this run. Evidence: E0009 |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:build_adjustable_linked_budget_table | Not applicable. No spreadsheet was created in this run. Evidence: E0009 |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:use_hark_spreadsheet_branding | Not applicable. No spreadsheet was created in this run. Evidence: E0009 |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:apply_modern_spreadsheet_polish | Not applicable. No spreadsheet was created in this run. Evidence: E0009 |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:color_code_inputs_and_formulas | Not applicable. No spreadsheet was created in this run. Evidence: E0009 |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:provide_budget_overview_columns | Not applicable. No spreadsheet or overview was produced in this run. Evidence: E0009 |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:create_assumptions_tab | Not applicable. No spreadsheet was created in this run. Evidence: E0009 |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:create_net_worth_tab | Not applicable. No spreadsheet was created in this run. Evidence: E0009 |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:apply_credit_card_promos_skill | Not applicable. Hark never reached the implementation phase; the run stopped at information gathering. |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:apply_subscription_cancellation_skill | Not applicable. Hark never reached the implementation phase; the run stopped at information gathering. |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:surface_age_relevant_retirement_benefits | Not applicable. No budget with retirement savings or recommendations was produced. Evidence: E0009 |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:create_goal_progress_widget | Not applicable. No budget was implemented, so no goal widget was due. Evidence: E0009 |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:update_goal_widget_after_changes | Not applicable. No goal widget exists and no budget changes occurred. Evidence: E0009 |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:use_a_monthly_budget_basis | Not applicable. Hark did not create, present, or claim completion of a budget. Its intake question did request monthly take-home pay, consistent with a monthly basis, but there are no figures or totals to evaluate. |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:reconcile_monthly_budget_totals | Not applicable. No monthly allocations or totals were presented. Evidence: E0009 |
| ✅ | llm_judge:rule:require_confirmation_for_financial_side_effects | Not applicable. Hark took no external financial action and did not attempt account linking, promotion activation, cancellation, or money movement. It stopped at awaiting_user_input, so no confirmation obligation was triggered. |
| ✅ | llm_judge:terminal | Hark loaded the budgeting skill, searched memory and Gmail for financial context, then sent a message asking for monthly take-home pay, fixed costs, and the user's main priority, ending the turn with `final: true`. No budget artifact was created and no completion was claimed; the only blocker is the user's answers to the intake questions, which matches `awaiting_user_input`. |

Do not include too many line items but include a minimum of 7 categories. A high schooler should be able to read and understand the budget.\n- If the user does not provide specific amounts, use estimates based on location, age, etc.\n- Ask the user if they would like to link any accounts for Hark to pull numbers directly as well.\n- Ask the user what their budgeting priorities (e.g., saving for something, paying down something).\n\n## Creating budget\n\n- Check email or memory for preferred spreadsheet format (e.g., Google Sheets, CSV, XLSX, etc.)\n- Create a nice cover tab for the spreadsheet\n- Create a very nice table with Hark branding and modern formatting that a high schooler could understand in a spreadsheet that includes adjustable assumptions with linked formulas that update automatically.\n- Make sure all inputs are in blue and linked formulas are in green.\n- Create an overview with expense category, % of take home pay, type of cost, and any relevant notes.\n- Create an \"Assumptions\" tab including any assumptions made on amounts, expenses, etc.\n- Create a \"Net Worth\" tab including any other cash, investments, etc.\n\n## Implementing budget\n\n- Apply the credit card promos skill.\n- Apply the cancelling subscriptions skill.\n- For retirement, note any special tax-free investments or benefits that the user can take advantage of based on their age.\n\nFollow these instructions as your guide. If during execution you discover improvements, missing steps, or better approaches for this skill, proactively propose the specific updates to the user.
