Textbook mechanism diagram for Backend-state verification: Claim rail plus database-state rail converge at an evidence gate.

Summary: ThinkingBox grades terminal backend state and side effects, not only generated text. repeated-run reliability is an explicit evaluation target.

Why it matters: For engineering teams, the key shift is from trusting a model response to designing the surrounding system so state, permissions, actions, and verification are explicit and inspectable.
