## Why Included

Concrete staged-rollout playbook with numbers — but the claimed win rates are not yet source-linked.

## Source Summary

Operator describes gating an internal agent behind a 40-case eval, canarying to 10% of tasks, then expanding. Claims 30% fewer escalations.

## Practical Implication

The staging pattern is reusable today; treat the win-rate numbers as unverified until the promised write-up lands.

## Agent-Ready Context

Staged agent rollout: gate behind eval set, canary 10% of tasks, expand on pass. Pattern is sound; the 30% improvement claim is unverified.

## Context Map

- Layer: benchmark
- Domains: coding
- Topics: agent-evals, agent-reliability

## Uncertainty

- Win-rate numbers not source-linked; write-up promised but not published.

## Agent Instruction

Use this item as source-backed context. Do not invent claims beyond the linked source. If this item conflicts with another source, call out the conflict.
