82

95

96

97
+ <p><strong>Result.</strong> Strict-mode env explained “warn-by-default not working.” Filtered tables understated warns. The investigation also surfaced the sudo evasion class above — worse than anything in the original report.</p>

88
+
89
+ <h2>The headline we retired</h2>
90
+ <p>ThumbGate's learned risk model used to report one quality figure: <code>trainingAccuracy: 0.820</code> — measured on the same rows it trained on, against a corpus where answering "risky" unconditionally scores 71.1%. That is an 11-point in-sample lift presented as an 82-point achievement, and it said nothing about generalization at all.</p>
91
+ <p>We replaced it with held-out evaluation under two different splits, and we publish both results — including the one that inverts.</p>
92
+
93
+ <h2>The result, honestly</h2>
94
+ <div class="panel">
95
+ <svg viewBox="0 0 640 260" role="img" aria-label="Bar chart: accuracy lift over the majority baseline. In-sample plus 10.9 points, held-out IID plus 9.9 points, held-out novel-context minus 10.5 points.">

+ <p class="chart-caption">Accuracy lift over the majority-class baseline, in points. 1,791 production rows, 12 independent group-aware stratified splits, mean across resamples. IID: +9.9 ± 1.7, AUC 0.887, 12/12 folds beat baseline. Novel-context: −10.5 ± 9.0, 1/12 folds, calibration error 0.31 vs 0.06.</p>
111
+ </div>
112
+ <p>On familiar traffic the model genuinely helps. On action types it has never seen, it is <span class="bad">worse than a constant classifier</span> — and unfamiliar actions are precisely the case a firewall exists for. That asymmetry is why <strong>deterministic rules enforce and the model only triages</strong>. We consider publishing that inversion more valuable than hiding it: it is the reason ThumbGate's blocking behaviour does not degrade with the model.</p>
113
+
114
+ <h2>The methodology</h2>
115
+ <table>
116
+ <tr><th>Practice</th><th>What it prevents</th></tr>
117
+ <tr><td>Lift vs the majority baseline, reported beside every accuracy</td><td>71% base-rate corpora making any model look strong</td></tr>
118
+ <tr><td>MCC + ROC-AUC + Brier + calibration error</td><td>accuracy hiding degenerate or miscalibrated behaviour</td></tr>
119
+ <tr><td>Dual holdouts: IID <em>and</em> whole-category (distribution shift)</td><td>quoting only the flattering generalization estimate</td></tr>
120
+ <tr><td>Group-aware splits keyed on the feature vector</td><td>duplicate inputs straddling folds and inflating scores</td></tr>
121
+ <tr><td>12 resamples, mean ± sd, paired t on shared folds</td><td>single lucky splits shipping as "improvements"</td></tr>
122
+ <tr><td>Per-fold vocabulary rebuild</td><td>held-out rows choosing the model's features (transductive fit)</td></tr>
123
+ </table>
124
+
125
+ <h2>The evaluation suites</h2>
126
+ <ul>
127
+ <li><strong>Model harness</strong> — <code>npm run eval:risk</code>: the resampling harness; <code>--json</code> emits the machine-readable report backing this page.</li>
128
+ <li><strong>Trace-mined drift benchmark</strong> — real production gate decisions, redacted, become 60 replayable cases across 12 gates; CI fails when any real command's verdict <em>moves</em>. Silent gate death is the signature of every bypass we have found.</li>
129
+ <li><strong>Evasion matrix</strong> — 14 dangerous commands × 9 canonicalization transforms; this is the suite that measured the 62 holes closed in v1.29.2.</li>
130
+ <li><strong>Published-artifact verification</strong> — the npm tarball itself is installed into a throwaway prefix and driven through its public hook contract twice daily. CI proving the <em>source</em> blocks something is a different claim from the artifact users receive blocking it.</li>
131
+ <li><strong>Decision canary</strong> — live decision-distribution drift: a gate going <em>silent</em>, a <em>spike</em> in blocks, or a gate appearing/disappearing.</li>
132
+ </ul>
133
+
134
+ <h2>The gates that block a release</h2>
135
+ <ul>
136
+ <li>A synthetic-fixture quality gate that separates <em>"the trainer broke"</em> from <em>"the data lacks signal"</em> — different problems, different fixes.</li>
137
+ <li>A <strong>pure-noise canary</strong>: a trainer that finds &gt;15 points of lift in random labels has labels leaking into features, and CI fails.</li>
138
+ <li><strong>Vacuity guards</strong>: a drift test that compared fewer than 20 cases fails; a single-class test fold refuses to report rather than emitting a meaningless pass. A check that cannot fail is treated as no check.</li>
139
+ <li>Non-significant improvements do not ship. Two candidate upgrades (a feature-diversity cap, Platt calibration) are implemented, tested, and <em>off</em> — paired t of −0.31 and −0.72.</li>
140
+ </ul>
141
+
142
+ <h2>Error analysis: the five bugs we found in our own evaluator</h2>
143
+ <p>The uncomfortable finding of this work: the evaluator was wrong more often than the model, and its errors all flattered us.</p>
144
+ <table>
145
+ <tr><th>Bug</th><th>Effect before the fix</th></tr>
146
+ <tr><td>Tied-hash rows straddling folds</td><td>test fold contained memorized rows</td></tr>
147
+ <tr><td>Cross-class duplicate leakage under label noise</td><td>same input in both folds with different labels</td></tr>
148
+ <tr><td>Group quota overshoot (one 655-row category)</td><td class="bad">novel-context result read +0.016; truth is −0.105</td></tr>
149
+ <tr><td>Vocabulary built before the split</td><td>held-out rows chose the model's features</td></tr>
150
+ <tr><td>Raw text in the split key</td><td>identical model inputs split across folds</td></tr>
151
+ </table>
152
+ <p>Three of the five were found by adversarial review <em>after</em> we had published numbers from the leaky evaluator. The corrected conclusion was stronger, not weaker — and the correction is documented in the repo, not overwritten.</p>
153
+
154
+ <div class="rule">The rule all of this enforces: no accuracy figure ships without the baseline it beats and the split it was measured on.</div>
155
+
156
+ <h2>Reproduce it</h2>
157
+ <p>Honest scoping: the measured corpus is <strong>private operator feedback telemetry</strong> and does not ship in the public repo. A clean clone gives you the methodology write-up, the CI quality gate (synthetic fixtures / no private data), and the same harness to run against <em>your</em> feedback log. The figures on this page are first-party operator measurements documented in <a style="color:var(--cyan)" href="https://github.com/IgorGanapolsky/ThumbGate/blob/main/docs/ML-EVALUATION.md">docs/ML-EVALUATION.md</a> — not a committed private corpus dump.</p>
