Codex review: needs real behavior proof before merge. Reviewed August 21, 2026, 12:03 PM ET / 16:03 UTC. ClawSweeper reviewWhat this changesThe PR adds first-violation hazard, survival, and mutual-information reporting to ShellBench’s posterior-dynamics pipeline and preserves model/task metadata in regime reports. Merge readiness⛔ Blocked until real behavior proof from a real setup is added - 7 items remain Keep open: current main does not contain this analysis stage, but the unchanged PR still misstates censored and unlocalizable observations, and it lacks an after-fix archive run proving the generated metrics. Priority: P2 Review scores
Verification
Live VerificationCommand: Result: FAIL (failed) — execution before step 1 Assertions:
How this fits togetherShellBench converts archived agent-task trajectories into regime and posterior-dynamics reports. The added stage derives first-violation timing by scenario before the pipeline writes its combined report. flowchart LR

Merge-risk optionsMaintainer options:
Technical reviewBest possible solution: Represent observed event time and censoring separately, exclude unlocalizable violations from timed metrics while counting them explicitly, add regression coverage, and validate the repaired report on a redacted archive containing both clean and violating runs. Do we have a high-confidence way to reproduce the issue? Yes, source-reproducible: a clean one-turn trajectory is assigned time 2, and any non-dangerous forbidden violation is assigned to the final turn by direct control flow; no runtime execution was needed to establish those paths. Is this the best way to solve the issue? No. The intended analysis needs explicit censoring and an unknown-time path before its reports can be interpreted as first-violation dynamics.

Pull request overview
Note
Copilot was unable to run its full agentic suite in this review.
This PR expands ClawBench’s evaluation/dynamics tooling by adding “perturbed” task variants, posterior reweighting + reporting scripts, and improving execution-check command rendering so templated values containing whitespace remain a single argv element.
Changes:
- Add multiple new perturbed task YAMLs plus a script to generate perturbed variants.
- Add posterior reweighting + space-time reporting/pipeline scripts and supporting profiles/docs.
- Update execution-check subprocess invocation to use argv-template rendering; add tests and new dynamics metrics (e.g., Rényi proxy).

Looks like a part of prompt for perturbation was leaked into task.

thank for the review! will fix that and rerun experiment for this one.

Check others too: they have the same issue (not all of them)

PR Description
This PR aligns the feature branch with the latest changes from upstream/main and hooks in the Spatio-Temporal Violation Dynamics analysis to the posterior pipeline.
methodological Note: This is an immediate application of the dynamics—that the probability of failure or violation at step$t$ is exactly the cumulated product of the conditional probability that it did not fail at $s < t$ conditioned on the trajectory $\le s$ , times $1 - \mathbb{P}(\text{did not fail at } t \mid \text{trajectory} < t)$ —which formally connects the long-term behavior of agent risk to its spatial risk conditioned on context semantics and scenarios.
i.e.
which let you do a lot of things.
Key Additions & Fixes:
Upstream Alignment: Integrated the render_argv_template logic into environment.py and environment_files.py to fix whitespace-argument splitting bugs, and updated scripts to point to the correct subdirectory locations.
Violation Time Decomposition: Hooked violation_time_decomposition.py into the main pipeline. It now writes session results (violation_metrics.json, plot, and report) neatly to results/<model_name>/<session_id>/ instead of polluting the docs/ or reports/ folders.
Test Suite Stability: Created tests/conftest.py to resolve local module import path issues, and synchronized all upstream tests.
Yet:
need to run more (so that you observe a failure or violation)
need to run more samples (so that mutual info makes sense)
