The finding · Class 7 · Temporal & Knowledge Boundary

Real context moved -50.0pp on Post-Cutoff Fabrication.

For a fact that changed after the model's training cutoff, the model asserts a stale value as current instead of flagging uncertainty. The rule

never pooled · a trap ratio would skew the delta

Residual — what survives

80% with no context, 45% under the best supplied source. What survives is 9 failing probes at that best condition, the detector's reason on most of them being: asserted a volatile post-cutoff fact as current without hedging.

Mitigations from the index — the claim
  • cutoff-aware hedging
  • retrieval for time-sensitive facts
