Trust verdict · v1 advisory · method

NOT YET SCREENEDno verdict on file

Verdict not yet evaluated for this tool. The hybrid eval runs adversarial cases first; coverage rolls out as the corpus expands (15 of 150 labels to graduation). Until a verdict is recorded, an agent should treat this tool as not-yet-cleared and fall back to its own checks. Method: hybrid eval, four-state verdict, honest limits.
