About this paper

Bryan C. Boots

The authors test how services pass misleading reports and whether corrections reach dependent reports. In a Qwen3-4B simulation, descendant-linked notices reduced invalid decisions from 52/360 to 29/360 and increased report amendments from 16/63 to 36/63. Scope revalidation showed no added protection; unauthorized requests persisted, but a gateway blocked simulated execution. Evidence is limited to one checkpoint and two fictional tasks.
