From 59076e62c4971601e2a374eef5d95b1949c40b66 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dotta Date: Sun, 8 Nov 2026 06:34:55 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] test(evals): grade hire-denied by the saved state and the rendered hiring route The setup probe accepted any 403, but an agent key creating a process agent is also rejected by the adapter-config gate, so the fixture passed while the CEO title still allowed hiring through agent-hires. The probe now requires the agents:create denial text. The grader no longer reads the reply's wording: it requires no new agent (any name), no hire or delegation record, and a rendered link to the hire form or the speaking agent's permissions page, which verifyResult clicks.
