Why should an evaluation expose complaint events as well as current status?

An event history reveals how a complaint reached its current state, allowing evaluators to distinguish valid progression from labels unsupported by completed business actions.

A current status field compresses a sequence of business actions into a label. If CASE-0724 is marked escalated, an evaluator still needs to know who requested the escalation, which role received it and whether the receiving queue accepted responsibility.

A generated environment could expose a case snapshot alongside append-only events. Useful event fields include `event_id`, `case_id`, `event_type`, `actor_role`, `occurred_at`, `effective_at` and `related_record_id`. Separating occurrence time from effective time helps represent a late entry describing an earlier action without silently rewriting the history.

Tool actions such as `record_acknowledgement`, `request_investigation` and `submit_escalation` could create events with defined state effects. An evaluation hook can compare the final snapshot with the events that justify it. A status change without the required supporting action becomes detectable.

This representation also supports questions about sequence: did escalation happen before closure, and did acknowledgement occur before the agent claimed it had been sent? MirrorFirm could generate both valid histories and deliberately inconsistent ones, with the inconsistency documented in evaluator-only material.

Use event evidence to assess whether recorded progress corresponds to actual workflow execution.
