Recommendation
!

Do not migrate globally under the configured policy.

!

1 tool_selection.conformance rows are excluded from the equivalence and regression rates: both models missed the recorded ground truth by the same margin, so their zero delta is a shared failure rather than evidence the migration is safe. Ground truth the source model itself fails usually means the suite was captured against a different toolset, prompt or agent.

!

13 tool_arguments rows were scored against ground truth promoted from the source model's own recorded calls: the source scores 1.0 by construction, so this gate measures target deviation from source, not correctness. Set provenance: reviewed on a golden row once its arguments have been checked by hand.

What changed, in plain language

Machine-written by gemini-3.1-flash-lite-preview on 2026-08-27 22:26 UTC. Every figure below is copied from the statistics above, not generated.

Verdict

The migration is a FAIL. 5 of 7 budgets passed. The target breached max_tool_divergence with a tool_divergence_pct of 25.0% against the 10% ceiling, and its equivalence_rate_pct of 61.4% fell below the 75% min_equivalence_rate.

Advisory signal

The regression_rate_pct is 13.6%. The target model exhibits a failure_category.SEMANTIC_REGRESSION of 7 and a failure_category.TOOL_SELECTION_DRIFT of 5.

Economics

The target model provides a cost_delta_pct of −58.8% and a latency_delta_pct of −75.2% compared to the source model.

Findings
  • ✕ Searches instead of answering Asked for an opinion on working late, the target model issues a search_web call and returns no text at all, where the source model answered in two sentences.
  • ✕ Confirms actions it never performed Asked to book coffee with Marcus, the target replies that it is on the calendar without calling any tool. Asked to start a groceries list, it creates the list, skips add_to_list, and still reports the three items as added.
  • ✕ Routes to the wrong tool A weather question gains a display_info call and the answer becomes “it’s on your screen” instead of the spoken forecast. A café request drops the opening-hours search and adds an unrequested add_note.

Recommendation. Do not migrate to gemini/gemini-3.5-flash-lite. The cost_delta_pct of −58.8% does not cover a tool_divergence_pct of 25.0%: fix the failure_category.TOOL_SELECTION_DRIFT (5) and failure_category.SEMANTIC_REGRESSION (7) cases before re-evaluating.

Per-example breakdown

Each number is target minus source for one example. Scores are on a 0–1 scale, so −0.14 means the target scored 0.14 lower than the source on its worst-hit evaluator. Negative = target worse.

Methodology

  • Source model: gemini/gemini-3.7-flash
  • Target model: gemini/gemini-3.5-flash-lite
  • Statistical tests: paired t-test (Shapiro-Wilk passed) or Wilcoxon signed-rank (otherwise).
  • Effect size: Cohen's d for paired samples, with 95% CI (analytical for t-tests; bootstrap for Wilcoxon, 2000 resamples).
  • Multi-test correction: Benjamini-Hochberg across every (prompt x evaluator x slice) p-value at FDR=0.05.
  • Severity classification uses the *corrected* p-value plus |Cohen's d|.
