What changed, and why.

Product and research updates, newest first.

Paired gates by default

Release gates now run McNemar's test against production by default, with Bonferroni correction across strict categories. Unpaired comparisons remain available for suites that can't share cases.

Research note: eval sample sizes

Published our analysis of Wilson intervals, power and false-alarm rates for LLM release gates, with reproducible code.

Judge-corrected failure rates

Evals reports now show Rogan–Gladen-corrected failure rates alongside raw judge rates, with intervals that include calibration uncertainty.

pass^k in agent reports

Agent suites report pass^k with unbiased estimates and intervals; k defaults to 4 and is configurable per suite.

MCP definition pinning in Guard

Guard hashes approved MCP tool definitions and blocks calls when a definition changes until it is re-approved.

Per-channel thresholds

Guard policies accept thresholds per input channel and action class, with a cost-ratio helper for choosing them.

Hedged checks

Guard re-issues slow classifier checks at their p95 latency, reducing tail latency for multi-check policies.
