MCP, Tools & Integrations

The AI receives a tool result but misreads, ignores, overwrites, misplaces, or fails to incorporate it correctly into the final output or workflow state.

Memory & Context

Task Progress Is Lost Midway

The AI loses track of completed work, prior decisions, current position, or remaining steps before the task is finished.

Spread & Escalation

Repair Step Created New Breakage

A repair, correction, retry, or fix step addresses one problem but introduces a new failure elsewhere.

Changes & Versions

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.

Changes & Versions

Rubric Changed but Results Did Not

Duplication & Overload

Same Workflow Check Happens Twice
