You shipped it. Metrics are green. And something still feels wrong — but you can't point to it. Everything passes checks, but you don't really trust the system.

Have you run into situations where: • velocity is up, but nobody can clearly explain what's happening anymore • nothing is obviously broken, yet things drift or fail in ways you can't reproduce • the same model is generating and "verifying", and it somehow always looks correct

We keep seeing situations like this. Not model failures — systems working as designed, but losing control at the system level.

A few recurring patterns: • verification built on the same agent that generates • metrics that look right, but track the wrong layer • oversight loops that exist formally, but exceed real human bandwidth • authority that can override, but has no independent signal to rely on

If you're in something like this — or you hit a point where it felt structurally wrong but you couldn't name it — we can try to map what's actually going on.

No need for a write-up. Rough description is enough. No code, data, or names required. Anonymous is fine.
