Which business conditions make a complaint case useful for evaluation?

Use this checklist to select complaint cases whose difficulty comes from business conditions that an evaluation can explain and assess.

- Include evidence held outside the receiving team. - Give different roles distinct decision authority. - Include an unresolved fact that affects routing. - Make a deadline compete with incomplete evidence. - Separate customer urgency from policy priority. - Include a handover with unfinished work. - Give escalation a meaningful operational consequence.

These conditions create reasons for an agent to investigate, communicate uncertainty and choose an authorised next step. A case with every relevant fact in the opening message may test reading comprehension, but it provides little evidence about managing a complaint through an organisation.

For a healthcare administration task, useful friction can arise when a booking team receives a complaint about an invoice adjustment controlled by a separate accounts team. The agent must understand the division of responsibility without making clinical decisions or inventing access to records.

A buyer can ask MirrorFirm to generate cases around selected sources of friction. Keep each source explicit in the task specification so evaluators can attribute a failure to a particular decision requirement instead of an unexplained increase in difficulty.
