Observed route
The route this run actually took. A step is marked as evidence only when the deterministic evaluator named its canonical index — nothing here searches for a step that merely looks similar.

Downstream metrics
What this violation actually caused, and — just as importantly — what kind of claim each number is. FlightRules reports what it measured and what the evaluator observed. It does not estimate a financial loss, because the telemetry does not show one.

Evidence summary
A deterministic, safe summary for an issue or a review. It carries identifiers, hashes and the evaluator's own expected-versus-observed statement, and no prompt, tool argument, tool result or customer field — because it is assembled from fields that carry none.
A violation is never dismissed. A new contract version, or an explicit fixture exclusion, is the only way to change this outcome, and both write an audit record.
