Changes & Versions

Primary Issues

• Saved Reference No Longer Works

  A saved source, citation, file reference, prompt reference, or workflow pointer previously worked but no longer resolves to the expected object or meaning.

• Output Breaks After Model Change

  Output that previously worked begins failing after a model, mode, runtime, or product behavior changes.

• Version Change Breaks Existing Prompt

  A prompt that previously produced usable results stops working after a version change in the model, tool, policy, schema, product surface, or workflow.

• Prompt Changed but Workflow Did Not

  A prompt changes but the workflow, parser, review step, routing rule, or downstream expectation still assumes the old prompt behavior.

• Rubric Changed but Results Did Not

  A review rubric, scoring rule, evaluation standard, or classification criterion changes, but AI results continue to reflect the old rubric.

• Old Output Expectations Survive Migration

  Expectations from a prior model, prompt, schema, tool, or workflow survive a migration and continue shaping review or downstream handling after they should be replaced.

• Same Contract Name Has Different Meanings

  The same prompt, schema, field, policy, tool, or workflow contract name is used in different places with different meanings.

• Prompt Behavior Changed Without Version Change

  A prompt begins producing different behavior even though no prompt version, model version, workflow version, or declared dependency change is recorded.

• Output Changed Without Declared Change

  Output shape, content, format, fields, or behavior changes without a declared change to the prompt, schema, model, workflow, or governing rule.

Also Related Issues

• Context Changes After Restore

  Restoring, reopening, resuming, or reloading a task changes the context that the AI uses to continue the work.

• Stale Context Affects Output

  Old context, prior instructions, outdated references, or earlier task state continue to affect output after they should no longer apply.

• Actual Policy Differs From Declared Policy

  The policy the AI or workflow actually follows differs from the policy that is documented, declared, displayed, or expected.

• Revoked Approval Still Treated as Active

  An approval, permission, exception, or authorization that was revoked continues to affect AI behavior or workflow decisions as if it were still active.

• Policy Update Not Reflected in Output

  A policy, rule, standard, or instruction has been updated, but the AI output still follows the older version.

• Small Change Produces Large Downstream Effects

  A small prompt, schema, policy, output, or workflow change creates unexpectedly large effects in downstream steps.
