Asia-Pacific · 2026-06-29

The receipts. This is the exact material every model was shown for this day and region, followed by what each of them made of it — in its own words, next to the number it gave.

It is worth reading once even if you skip everything else: it is where confident-sounding reasoning and a score that turns out to be no better than chance sit side by side.

Why the evidence is identical, and how you can check

Evidence is gathered once per (date, region, depth_profile), hashed, and reused for every model in the run. A disagreement below is therefore a disagreement about identical input, not two models getting different search results. The evidence hash shown on this page is what makes that checkable.

Evidence hash
a703a83cfd2770ca3dbc19232a1a0dba6fba31c434ca6d9d654851280a8c9494

SHA-256 over the canonically serialised payload minus the hash itself, so it is stable across processes and machines. It is stored on the run and on every score row below — provenance is checkable, not asserted. Every score row below carries this same hash.

Source material · 10

shallow

These headlines, in this order, are the entire world the models were given. Nothing else about Asia-Pacific on 2026-06-29 was in the prompt.

Extracts: not gathered at shallow depth — Stage 7 populates extracts only for standard and deep profiles. Zero here means "not requested", not "requested and empty". Full article texts: not gathered at shallow depth — only the deep profile fetches them.

The shallow profile requests 20 headlines and 10 are stored. That is a known provider cap, not a clipped payload: the Serper news endpoint returns at most 10 items per request regardless of the count asked for, and pagination has not been added. The three profiles currently differ in enrichment, not in headline breadth.

Model rationales

prompt p1

Same headlines, same rendered prompt, different readings. Where two models diverge, the disagreement is about interpretation, because the input was byte-identical and the hash proves it. The scored verdicts here span 8.0 points of the 0-100 scale.

The evidence reflects constructive regional engagement focused on climate resilience, renewable energy development, and conflict prevention initiatives, with no reports of acute military tensions or security crises. While headlines acknowledge geopolitical reordering and uninsured cyber vulnerabilities, the dominant narrative emphasizes economic cooperation, infrastructure investment, and multilateral dialogue rather than destabilizing conflicts or imminent threats.

The evidence shows routine regional cooperation on renewable energy, climate resilience, and security dialogues, with no immediate crisis or conflict reported. Mentions of geopolitical tensions and uninsured cyber risks indicate moderate instability, but the overall picture is stable with ongoing positive initiatives.

okStable

The Asia-Pacific region demonstrates broad stability, characterized by cooperative climate resilience pacts and major renewable energy investments. While reports highlight underlying cyber vulnerabilities and strategic reordering, the absence of active conflicts keeps the immediate geopolitical risk low.

okElevated

The day's evidence is dominated by economic, energy-investment, climate-cooperation and conference activity, with no reports of active conflict, violence, or acute crisis in the region. Mild elevation is warranted by background references to strategic reordering, heightened geopolitical tensions, conflict-prevention planning, and uninsured cyber-physical risk to industrial bases.

The region is experiencing a mix of cooperative efforts, such as the Pacific Climate Summit and the launch of renewable energy projects, which suggests a level of stability and progress. However, the presence of discussions on conflict prevention, uninsured exposure to cyberattacks, and geopolitical tensions indicates that there are still potential risks and challenges that need to be addressed.

Every model returned a parseable verdict for this evidence, so no failure card is shown. Non-ok rows are rendered by the same component — with error_text where the rationale would be — and are covered by tests/rationale_card_test.tsx.
