Summary
Exact prompt
# Task: answer questions from conflicting internal sources (as of 2026-10-15) `sources/` contains 12 dated documents about Voltaris's Kestrel Valley plant. They conflict. Prefer approved/official and newer documents; corrections override what they correct; drafts, rumors and unverified posts are not facts. Answer in `answers.json`: {"q1": {"answer": "...", "sources": ["<filename>", ...]}, ...}. Put the single most authoritative file FIRST in sources. - q1: Current planned annual capacity in GWh (number only) - q2: Current planned investment in EUR billion (number only) - q3: Current planned production start (e.g. "Q1 2028") - q4: Planned headcount at full ramp (integer) - q5: Primary cathode supplier (company name) - q6: Separator supplier (company name) - q7: Is the CEO leaving before launch, according to the best evidence? ("yes"/"no") - q8: What must be operational before production start under the water permit? (short phrase) Also write `brief.md` (≤200 words) summarising the current plan and flagging which sources were superseded or unreliable. No network.
Answer eight questions about a company's planned battery plant using twelve dated internal documents that contradict each other. Corrections override what they correct, approved minutes beat drafts, and rumors are not facts. Each answer must cite the single most authoritative file first. Original benchmark task written for usecaserank.com (not based on a specific public post). Headless, offline run on a reproducible fixture. Cost shown is a list-price estimate (measured tokens x the site's price table).
Success criteria: 1. At least 7 of 8 answers correct (normalised: the expected value must appear in the given answer, ignoring case/punctuation/commas). 2. For at least 7 of 8 questions the FIRST file in 'sources' must be the authoritative source file. 3. brief.md must exist, be 1–200 words, and must not state the rumoured/draft figures (the unapproved capacity values or the rumoured headcount) unless explicitly labelled as rumour/draft/unverified/rejected/not approved.
Setup notes: Use Case Scout batch 3 case c07-conflicting-sources (offline fixture). Prepared with the case's setup script; hidden key/tests kept outside the agent's work dir. Prompt = TASK.md verbatim. Scored automatically with the scout's scorer. Tools: list_files/read_file/write_file/run_shell (venice-mini-agent v1.3), web disabled. Single run, no retries. Harness: venice-mini-agent v1.3 via the Venice OpenAI-compatible API: same tool loop, system prompt and limits as the cases 02-25 Venice runs (max 25 turns, max 16,000 output tokens per call, temperature 0.2, Venice system prompt and web search off, per-run cost cap $0.08, thinking on (model default)). Same task text, work-dir layout and scorer as the Claude runs of this case. Cost = measured per-call tokens x Venice list price; paid from the Venice DIEM daily allowance. Harness: venice-mini-agent v1.3 via Venice OpenAI-compatible API (16000 max tokens/call, $0.08 run cap). Score: fail. Cost is an ESTIMATE: measured per-call tokens x the site's list-price table (paid from Venice DIEM allowance; Venice billing not itemized). input tokens include cached reads. Single run.
Estimated cost List-price estimate; not actually billed.

Reproduce this run
- Use the use case prompt on the use case page.
- Same setup: DeepSeek V4.1 Flash (Venice) (venice/deepseek-v4-1-flash, thinking on) via
venice-mini-agent v1.3, cloud. - It counts as a success only if it meets every success criterion: 1. At least 7 of 8 answers correct (normalised: the expected value must appear in the given answer, ignoring case/punctuation/commas). 2. For at least 7 of 8 questions the FIRST file in 'sources' must be the authoritative source file. 3. brief.md must exist, be 1–200 words, and must not state the rumoured/draft figures (the unapproved capacity values or the rumoured headcount) unless explicitly labelled as rumour/draft/unverified/rejected/not approved.
- Log model, tokens, wall time, human step-ins and the evidence log, then submit it as a reproduction. A different model? Submit a head-to-head rerun.
