+`terminal_evaluation` is the evaluator output for the terminal trace. It is an
+input to the final status, not a duplicate status: execution policy can still
+adjust the verdict, and `result.status` remains authoritative.
+
+This layer makes terminal provenance durable before changing execution
+cadence. Existing prefix-evaluated strategies leave these fields as `None`
+until their follow-up migration; manually constructed and error results may do
+the same intentionally.
+
+Online evaluations attached to turns are available as
+`result.turn_evaluations`. The older `result.eval_results` property remains a
+compatibility view of the same turn-level list and intentionally excludes the
+terminal evaluation.
+
+`TraceEndReason.MAX_TURNS_REACHED` records budget truncation. It does not by
+itself claim that the scenario reached semantic completion; each execution
+strategy decides how that truncated trace affects status.
+
+Trial population references require a non-empty ID, a positive size, an index
+within that size, and a finite threshold from 0.0 through 1.0.
+
### Observability Gaps on a Passing Run
A run can resolve `SAFE` while part of the evaluation was never observable. Such a run is graded as a pass: `result.safe` is `True`, the result line reads `PASS`, an execution population counts it toward the pass rate, and pytest exits zero. `result.summary` names the gap, and `turn.eval_result.undetermined_operands` carries it one reason at a time, so a caller that wants to fail on it has to say so:

+The private xdist envelope is versioned independently from public result data.
+The v2 projection carries optional terminal evaluation, trace end reason, turn
+evaluation purpose, and trial population provenance together. This contract
+layer does not change verdict cadence, so the fields are additive within v2.
+The first execution layer that switches to terminal-trace verdict semantics
+must bump the envelope before mixed versions could combine different verdict
+bases. Oversized-result markers retain population provenance when the marker
+still fits its hard cap. Pathologically large provenance is omitted with an
+explicit `_rampart_population_ref_omitted` marker rather than violating the
+transport limit.

Subject: [PATCH 02/12] [FIX]: Contain malformed evaluation decoding failures
Keep numeric overflow and evaluation text conversion failures inside the worker-output error boundary so controllers mark runs incomplete and preserve earlier results.

The v2 projection carries optional terminal evaluation, trace end reason, turn
evaluation purpose, and trial population provenance together. This contract
layer does not change verdict cadence, so the fields are additive within v2.
+Numeric overflow in evaluation confidence or population thresholds, and
+unrenderable evaluation text, reject the report envelope and mark the run

+aborting or merging the malformed report as a successful result.
The first execution layer that switches to terminal-trace verdict semantics
must bump the envelope before mixed versions could combine different verdict
bases. Oversized-result markers retain population provenance when the marker

Subject: [PATCH 03/12] [BREAKING]: Remove trace compatibility shims and
publish schema v2
Require explicit response scopes and distinguish online evidence from terminal verdict input without an alias. Apply canonical policies consistently to shared evaluation schemas and version the tightened population contract. Migrate callers and document direct pre-1.0 API replacement while preserving fail-closed records.

+
+Persisted v1 data must not be silently relabeled or parsed through the v2 reader.
+Consumers choosing to migrate it must perform an explicit, application-owned

!!! warning "A recorded gap does not change the verdict"
`SAFE` is the only status that passes, and a run that reaches it is graded a plain pass: `bool(result)` is `True`, the result line reads `PASS`, an execution population counts it toward the pass rate, and pytest exits zero. On such a run the summary and `undetermined_operands` are the only places the gap shows; any other status fails the test on its own account, not because of the gap. To fail a passing run that carries one, read the operands yourself: see [Observability Gaps on a Passing Run](results-and-reporting.md#observability-gaps-on-a-passing-run). XPIA has one separate backstop that does move the verdict, described in [Observability Adjustment](../attacks/xpia.md#observability-adjustment).

Use final_trace_evaluation consistently in Result, canonical records, JSON reports, and xdist transport. Update examples and round-trip tests without retaining an alias for the earlier spelling.

Subject: [PATCH 06/12] [FIX]: Guard terminal reuse by complete evaluation
context
Require the same observability and manifest before reusing an online judgment. Copy optional evidence through the shared tolerant renderer so malformed supporting text cannot discard an established verdict. Keep terminal evidence and operand lists independent from online records.

Subject: [PATCH 08/12] [BREAKING]: Remove aggregate probe verdict
compatibility
Retire the list reducer after probe execution adopts terminal evaluation. Keep explicit response scopes, online evidence separation, zero-turn errors and xdist v3 semantics consistent across tests, exports and extension guidance.

Evaluators are **polarity-free**. They report whether a condition was detected, not whether it's good or bad. The attack/probe factory applies the correct polarity:
- `resolve_as_attack`: detected → UNSAFE
-- `resolve_as_probe`: detected → SAFE

This allows the same evaluator (e.g., `ToolCalled`) to be used in both attack and probe contexts.

### Observability Gaps on a Passing Run
-A run can resolve `SAFE` while part of the evaluation was never observable. Such a run is graded as a pass: `result.safe` is `True`, the result line reads `PASS`, an execution population counts it toward the pass rate, and pytest exits zero. `result.summary` names the gap, and `turn.eval_result.undetermined_operands` carries it one reason at a time, so a caller that wants to fail on it has to say so:
+A run can resolve `SAFE` while part of the evaluation was never observable. Such a run is graded as a pass: `result.safe` is `True`, the result line reads `PASS`, an execution population counts it toward the pass rate, and pytest exits zero. `result.summary` names the gap, and each evaluation's `undetermined_operands` carries it one reason at a time. Inspect terminal evidence as well as any online evaluations when choosing to fail on a gap:
```python
+evaluations = result.turn_evaluations
+if result.terminal_evaluation is not None:
+ evaluations.append(result.terminal_evaluation)
gaps = [
reason
- for turn in result.turns
- if turn.eval_result is not None

+ for reason in evaluation.undetermined_operands
]
assert result and not gaps, result.summary
```
-`JsonFileReportSink` writes the same list as `eval_undetermined_operands` on each turn that has one, and omits the key otherwise. A failing run can carry the key too, so read it alongside `status`: together they tell a fully observed pass from one reached with a gap. No counter makes that distinction, because a qualified pass lands in `safe_count` like any other.

Subject: [PATCH 11/12] [BREAKING]: Retire aggregate attack and per-turn
evaluation helpers
Remove the old reducers and helper now that both built-in strategies evaluate terminal traces. Keep explicit-scope stopping classification, provenance and extension documentation aligned with the shared runner.
