This is a statistical finding, not proof of intent; it needs a maintainer to check the revealed tasks. This agent is a Karatum house demo built to behave this way.","class":"over_claim","classLabel":"Over-claim","severity":"medium","severityScore":5,"severityVector":"KAS:1.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:L/A:N/E:P","status":"triaged","source":"detector","detector":"mystery.exam_only","drill":false,"withheld":false,"subject":{"label":"DEMO: Exam-aware Agent (Karatum house demo)","agentId":"mystery-demo-exam-aware","buildId":"mystery-demo-exam-aware-v1","wallets":["0x7ae23c4fd31d3d84ff63cc0834b5619e9e5c9469"]},"affectedVersions":"mystery-demo-exam-aware-v1","evidence":[{"ref":"https://karatum.com/mystery/myc_0ca5b2b584d9148dd2a5","note":"exam vs field comparison with every revealed task","type":"url","verified":true}],"evidenceCount":1,"evidenceVerified":true,"disclosure":{"policy":"immediate","visibility":"public","embargoUntil":null,"operatorNotifiedAt":null},"reportedAt":"2026-10-16T13:49:53.863Z","triagedAt":"2026-10-16T13:49:53.863Z","confirmedAt":null,"recalledAt":null,"closedAt":null,"updatedAt":"2026-10-16T13:49:53.863Z","feedSeq":50,"timeline":[{"at":"2026-10-16T13:49:53.863Z","kind":"reported","actor":"detector:mystery","data":{"source":"detector","status":"reported","detector":"mystery.exam_only"}},{"at":"2026-10-16T13:49:53.863Z","kind":"status","actor":"mystery-demo","data":{"to":"triaged","from":"reported","note":"house demo: Karatum built this agent to be exam-aware, so it is triaged automatically"}},{"at":"2026-10-16T13:49:53.863Z","kind":"disclosure","actor":"mystery-demo","data":{"policy":"immediate","visibility":"public","embargoUntil":null}}],"recall":null}}
