Overview

Explain Harness FME experiment results: winner determination, statistical significance, guardrail metric impact, and data-quality caveats (low sample size, missing data). Classifies each metric's outcome and produces plain-language readout by default, surfacing underlying stats (p-value, CI, sample size) on request. Use when asked to explain, review, or interpret experiment results; "did treatment X win"; "is this experiment significant"; "what happened to metric Y in this experiment"; or "should we ship this experiment". Do NOT use for changing experiments (manage-experiments), choosing metrics (choose-metric), or diagnosing bias (SRM root cause, peeking, Simpson's paradox). Trigger phrases: experiment results, readout, winner, statistical significance, guardrail metric, ship this experiment.

Review Experiment Results

Explain an FME experiment's outcome in plain language: whether there's a winner, why or why not, how guardrail metrics were affected, and any data-quality caveats - with underlying statistics available on request.

Related: manage-experiments (experiment changes), choose-metric (metric selection).

Tools

Works through the Harness MCP server or the Harness CLI; names are from tool-map.md.

Operation	MCP	CLI
List experiments	`harness_list` · `fme_experiment` · `filters: { parent_type, name?, match_type: "contains", status?: ["ACTIVE", "PAUSED", "COMPLETED", "ARCHIVED"], offset: 0, limit: 100 }` · `compact: false`	`harness list experiment --parent-type FEATURE_FLAG [--search <name>] --status ACTIVE`, then repeat with `--status PAUSED`, `--status COMPLETED`, `--status ARCHIVED` (CLI `--status` is single-value; API defaults to `ACTIVE` if omitted)
Get experiment	`harness_get` · `fme_experiment` · `params: { experiment_id }`	`harness get experiment <experiment-id>`
Get settings	`harness_get` · `fme_experiment_settings` · `params: { experiment_id }`	`harness get experiment:settings <experiment-id>`
List results	`harness_list` · `fme_experiment_result` · `filters: { experiment_id, comparisons? }`	`harness list experiment:results <experiment-id> --raw`
Get/list metrics	`harness_get` · `fme_metric` · `params.metric_id` (one call per id), or `harness_list` · `fme_metric` · `filters: { ids }` · `compact: false`	`harness get metric <id>` once per id, or `harness list metric --id <id>` once per id - the CLI's `--id` flag is repeatable but only the first value reaches the API (spec bug), so repeating `--id id1 --id id2` on one call silently drops `id2`

Instructions

Phase 1: Establish scope

Follow scope-establishment.md.

Step 1: Resolve the experiment

If the user gives an exact experiment ID, Get experiment directly - skip list. Otherwise List experiments for parent type FEATURE_FLAG (or AI_CONFIG if user specified), with name substring match if provided (MCP: match_type: "contains"). Default parent type: FEATURE_FLAG.

If user didn't specify status, list ACTIVE, PAUSED, COMPLETED, and ARCHIVED - a finished or archived experiment is exactly the kind a results question is usually about, so never default to active-only here. Fully paginate all selected statuses per pagination before deciding uniqueness or absence; CLI needs a separate paginated query per status. More than one match or no name given → ask which experiment. If a scan is incomplete, report that instead of silently selecting a first-page match.

Step 2: Fetch experiment definition

Get experiment. Key fields: status, environment, startAt/endAt, baselineTreatment, comparisonTreatments[], keyMetrics[], supportingMetrics[].

keyMetrics/supportingMetrics are the only metric lists on the experiment. GUARDRAIL and ALERT metrics are workspace-wide categories applying to every experiment, so they never appear here - read role from each result's category (Step 4). Empty keyMetrics → no winner criterion; ask which metric(s) should drive verdict.

More than one comparisonTreatments and user didn't name one → report every treatment (one verdict each, see Output Format). If question presumes a single treatment ("did it win?") → ask which treatment or confirm per-treatment readout.

Step 3: Fetch experiment settings

Get settings. Always returns applied settings (404 only if experiment doesn't exist). source: "EXPERIMENT_OVERRIDE" means experiment has its own override; other values mean it inherits org defaults.

Fields to carry forward: significanceThreshold (not always 0.05), multipleComparisonCorrection (NONE or GROUPWISE_HOCHBERG; applies only to KEY/SUPPORTING, never GUARDRAIL/ALERT), minimumSampleSize (per treatment), statisticalTestType (FIXED_HORIZON/SEQUENTIAL), reviewPeriod (ISO-8601 duration), varianceReduction.method (NONE/CUPED).

Step 4: Fetch evaluated results

List results for the experiment, optionally narrowed to specific comparison treatments. List-only (no single-result get, no per-environment filter). Returns latest calculation run only, as one row per (metric, comparison treatment) pair, plus top-level calculatedAt (null if never calculated). If narrowing to specific treatments, filter the returned rows on each item's comparison (see tool-map.md).

Per-row fields: category (KEY, SUPPORTING, GUARDRAIL, or ALERT), comparison (comparison treatment this row is for), metricId.id / metricId.name (name can be null; resolve in Step 5), metricResultState (stats engine verdict; null if none yet), pvalue, impactLower/impactUpper, value, errorMargin, baselineMean/comparisonMean (each with Lower/Upper), baselineSampleSize/comparisonSampleSize, varianceReduction, positive (metric's configured isPositive, not observed outcome; non-null even when numeric fields are null).

No SRM field in response, so can't confirm observed treatment allocation matched configured treatment allocation - Step 8 says so whenever it reports a winner. Report metricResultState/pvalue as given; never recompute significance or claim to correct for peeking.

Reconcile before scoring. The expected row set is the Cartesian product of every configured metric (keyMetrics ∪ supportingMetrics from Step 2) × every comparison treatment in scope (all of them, or the one(s) picked in Step 2); it must be non-empty, since Step 2 already stops on empty keyMetrics. Match returned rows against it:

Two or more rows for the same (metricId.id, comparison) pair → duplicate/conflicting data; don't pick one arbitrarily - treat that combination as needs_more_data and note the conflict in Step 8.
An expected (metric, comparison) combination has no row at all → treat as needs_more_data, same as a row with metricResultState: null; never treat a missing combination as "nothing to report."
A row's comparison isn't in the experiment's current comparisonTreatments → drop it (stale data from a removed treatment).
calculatedAt is null, or the whole result list is empty → no calculation has run; every KEY result is needs_more_data, so Step 7's verdict is NEED_MORE_DATA - never report WINNER from an empty or uncalculated result set.

GUARDRAIL/ALERT rows aren't part of the expected set (they're workspace-wide, not listed on the experiment) but must still flow through to Step 7's DATA_QUALITY_CONCERN modifier when present with no data - don't drop them while reconciling KEY/SUPPORTING coverage.

Step 5: Resolve metric names and descriptions

Resolve every distinct metric ID from returned rows and configured metrics missing from those rows, so gaps can be named. MCP may List metrics by IDs, fully paginating until every requested ID is resolved or the complete inventory establishes a missing ID; alternatively get each ID directly. CLI must Get metric separately for each ID (or one fully paginated single-ID list per call). An unresolved ID stays unverified, not absent from a first-page miss. Include returned GUARDRAIL/ALERT IDs too. Descriptions help judge severity: a 2% dip on "leading indicator, noisy" reads differently from same dip on "primary revenue guardrail".

Step 6: Classify each result

Map each metricResultState to desired, undesired, inconclusive, or needs_more_data using state-classification.md. For needs_more_data results, compare baselineSampleSize/comparisonSampleSize to minimumSampleSize so readout can say how far along collection is.

Step 7: Determine the verdict

One verdict per selected comparison. Completeness gate runs first: empty/uncalculated results, missing or duplicate configured metric/comparison pairs, or mismatched expected categories force NEED_MORE_DATA + DATA_QUALITY_CONCERN for the affected comparison. Show observed regressions/guardrails separately; don't hide them. Only a non-empty reconciled set with every configured KEY and SUPPORTING pair present exactly once enters the table below. A missing workspace-wide guardrail inventory remains unverified, not evidence of no breaches.

Then evaluate top to bottom; first match wins:

Verdict	Condition
`MIXED`	At least one KEY result is `desired` and at least one result of any category is `undesired`
`WINNER`	Completeness gate passed; at least one configured KEY result exists and every configured KEY result is `desired`
`REGRESSION`	At least one KEY result is `undesired`
`NEED_MORE_DATA`	At least one KEY result is `needs_more_data` (including missing or conflicting combinations caught by Step 4's reconciliation)
`NO_WINNER`	Otherwise (KEY results are `inconclusive`, or mix of `desired` and `inconclusive`)

Modifiers (attach to any verdict):

GUARDRAIL_BREACH - any category: GUARDRAIL result is undesired. An undesired SUPPORTING or ALERT result affects the verdict but is not a guardrail breach. By row order, WINNER never carries this modifier.
DATA_QUALITY_CONCERN - more than half of KEY results are in a NO_DATA_* state; any result is NO_DATA_SERVER_ERROR/FAILED_METRIC; or any GUARDRAIL/ALERT result is in a NO_DATA_* state at all. A guardrail that never received data is a monitoring gap, not just a data point to omit.

Step 8: Explain the results

Default to plain language. Link concepts.md for SRM and peeking caveats. Lead with verdict, then why. Describe trade-offs, not business decision. DATA_QUALITY_CONCERN: say so plainly, and call out any duplicate/conflicting rows or missing metric×treatment combinations Step 4 found. WINNER or MIXED: add one line: SRM isn't exposed through API; check experiment's results page in Harness UI before acting. Fixed-horizon + before review period: say readout is preliminary - if the verdict is WINNER, report it as WINNER (preliminary) in the Output Format and don't call it actionable until the review period ends or the test type is SEQUENTIAL. Inconclusive but not significance-tested: say why (e.g. ACROSS metric). calculatedAt non-null: include timestamp. pvalue null (e.g. WAITING_NORMALITY): don't quote value/impact as confident. GUARDRAIL_BREACH + MIXED: lead with breach. Guardrail or supporting metrics with data (any cate

why or why not, how guardrail metrics were affected, and any data-quality
caveats - with underlying statistics available on request.

## Tools

Works through the Harness MCP server or the Harness CLI; names are from [tool-map.md](../../../references/fme/tool-map.md).

| Operation | MCP | CLI |
|-----------|-----|-----|
| **List experiments** | `harness_list` · `fme_experiment` · `filters: { parent_type, name?, match_type: "contains", status?: ["ACTIVE", "PAUSED", "COMPLETED", "ARCHIVED"], offset: 0, limit: 100 }` · `compact: false` | `harness list experiment --parent-type FEATURE_FLAG [--search <name>] --status ACTIVE`, then repeat with `--status PAUSED`, `--status COMPLETED`, `--status ARCHIVED` (CLI `--status` is single-value; API defaults to `ACTIVE` if omitted) |

| **Get settings** | `harness_get` · `fme_experiment_settings` · `params: { experiment_id }` | `harness get experiment:settings <experiment-id>` |
| **List results** | `harness_list` · `fme_experiment_result` · `filters: { experiment_id, comparisons? }` | `harness list experiment:results <experiment-id> --raw` |
| **Get/list metrics** | `harness_get` · `fme_metric` · `params.metric_id` (one call per id), or `harness_list` · `fme_metric` · `filters: { ids }` · `compact: false` | `harness get metric <id>` once per id, or `harness list metric --id <id>` once per id - the CLI's `--id` flag is repeatable but only the first value reaches the API (spec bug), so repeating `--id id1 --id id2` on one call silently drops `id2` |

## Instructions

### Phase 1: Establish scope
Follow [scope-establishment.md](../../../references/scope-establishment.md).

### Step 1: Resolve the experiment

If the user gives an exact experiment ID, **Get experiment** directly - skip list. Otherwise **List experiments** for parent type FEATURE_FLAG (or AI_CONFIG if user specified), with name substring match if provided (MCP: `match_type: "contains"`). Default parent type: FEATURE_FLAG.

If user didn't specify status, list ACTIVE, PAUSED, COMPLETED, **and ARCHIVED** - a finished or archived experiment is exactly the kind a results question is usually about, so never default to active-only here. Fully paginate all selected statuses per [pagination](../../../references/fme/tool-map.md#pagination) before deciding uniqueness or absence; CLI needs a separate paginated query per status. More than one match or no name given → ask which experiment. If a scan is incomplete, report that instead of silently selecting a first-page match.

### Step 2: Fetch experiment definition

**Get experiment**. Key fields: `status`, `environment`, `startAt`/`endAt`, `baselineTreatment`, `comparisonTreatments[]`, `keyMetrics[]`, `supportingMetrics[]`.

`keyMetrics`/`supportingMetrics` are the only metric lists on the experiment. `GUARDRAIL` and `ALERT` metrics are workspace-wide categories applying to every experiment, so they never appear here - read role from each result's `category` (Step 4). Empty `keyMetrics` → no winner criterion; ask which metric(s) should drive verdict.

More than one `comparisonTreatments` and user didn't name one → report every treatment (one verdict each, see Output Format). If question presumes a single treatment ("did it win?") → ask which treatment or confirm per-treatment readout.

### Step 3: Fetch experiment settings

**Get settings**. Always returns applied settings (404 only if experiment doesn't exist). `source: "EXPERIMENT_OVERRIDE"` means experiment has its own override; other values mean it inherits org defaults.

Fields to carry forward: `significanceThreshold` (not always 0.05), `multipleComparisonCorrection` (`NONE` or `GROUPWISE_HOCHBERG`; applies only to KEY/SUPPORTING, never GUARDRAIL/ALERT), `minimumSampleSize` (per treatment), `statisticalTestType` (`FIXED_HORIZON`/`SEQUENTIAL`), `reviewPeriod` (ISO-8601 duration), `varianceReduction.method` (`NONE`/`CUPED`).

### Step 4: Fetch evaluated results

**List results** for the experiment, optionally narrowed to specific comparison treatments. List-only (no single-result get, no per-environment filter). Returns latest calculation run only, as one row per (metric, comparison treatment) pair, plus top-level `calculatedAt` (`null` if never calculated). If narrowing to specific treatments, filter the returned rows on each item's `comparison` (see [tool-map.md](../../../references/fme/tool-map.md)).

Per-row fields: `category` (`KEY`, `SUPPORTING`, `GUARDRAIL`, or `ALERT`), `comparison` (comparison treatment this row is for), `metricId.id` / `metricId.name` (`name` can be `null`; resolve in Step 5), `metricResultState` (stats engine verdict; `null` if none yet), `pvalue`, `impactLower`/`impactUpper`, `value`, `errorMargin`, `baselineMean`/`comparisonMean` (each with `Lower`/`Upper`), `baselineSampleSize`/`comparisonSampleSize`, `varianceReduction`, `positive` (metric's configured `isPositive`, not observed outcome; non-null even when numeric fields are `null`).

No SRM field in response, so can't confirm observed treatment allocation matched configured treatment allocation - Step 8 says so whenever it reports a winner. Report `metricResultState`/`pvalue` as given; never recompute significance or claim to correct for peeking.

**Reconcile before scoring.** The expected row set is the Cartesian product of every configured metric (`keyMetrics` ∪ `supportingMetrics` from Step 2) × every comparison treatment in scope (all of them, or the one(s) picked in Step 2); it must be non-empty, since Step 2 already stops on empty `keyMetrics`. Match returned rows against it:
- Two or more rows for the same (`metricId.id`, `comparison`) pair → duplicate/conflicting data; don't pick one arbitrarily - treat that combination as `needs_more_data` and note the conflict in Step 8.
- An expected (metric, comparison) combination has no row at all → treat as `needs_more_data`, same as a row with `metricResultState: null`; never treat a missing combination as "nothing to report."
- A row's `comparison` isn't in the experiment's current `comparisonTreatments` → drop it (stale data from a removed treatment).
- `calculatedAt` is `null`, or the whole result list is empty → no calculation has run; every KEY result is `needs_more_data`, so Step 7's verdict is `NEED_MORE_DATA` - never report `WINNER` from an empty or uncalculated result set.

GUARDRAIL/ALERT rows aren't part of the expected set (they're workspace-wide, not listed on the experiment) but must still flow through to Step 7's `DATA_QUALITY_CONCERN` modifier when present with no data - don't drop them while reconciling KEY/SUPPORTING coverage.

### Step 5: Resolve metric names and descriptions

Resolve every distinct metric ID from returned rows **and** configured metrics missing from those rows, so gaps can be named. MCP may **List metrics** by IDs, fully paginating until every requested ID is resolved or the complete inventory establishes a missing ID; alternatively get each ID directly. CLI must **Get metric** separately for each ID (or one fully paginated single-ID list per call). An unresolved ID stays unverified, not absent from a first-page miss. Include returned GUARDRAIL/ALERT IDs too. Descriptions help judge severity: a 2% dip on "leading indicator, noisy" reads differently from same dip on "primary revenue guardrail".

### Step 6: Classify each result

Map each `metricResultState` to `desired`, `undesired`, `inconclusive`, or `needs_more_data` using [state-classification.md](references/state-classification.md). For `needs_more_data` results, compare `baselineSampleSize`/`comparisonSampleSize` to `minimumSampleSize` so readout can say how far along collection is.

### Step 7: Determine the verdict

One verdict per selected comparison. **Completeness gate runs first:** empty/uncalculated results, missing or duplicate configured metric/comparison pairs, or mismatched expected categories force `NEED_MORE_DATA` + `DATA_QUALITY_CONCERN` for the affected comparison. Show observed regressions/guardrails separately; don't hide them. Only a non-empty reconciled set with every configured KEY and SUPPORTING pair present exactly once enters the table below. A missing workspace-wide guardrail inventory remains unverified, not evidence of no breaches.

Then evaluate top to bottom; first match wins:

| Verdict | Condition |
|---|---|
| `MIXED` | At least one KEY result is `desired` and at least one result of any category is `undesired` |
| `WINNER` | Completeness gate passed; at least one configured KEY result exists and every configured KEY result is `desired` |
| `REGRESSION` | At least one KEY result is `undesired` |
| `NEED_MORE_DATA` | At least one KEY result is `needs_more_data` (including missing or conflicting combinations caught by Step 4's reconciliation) |
| `NO_WINNER` | Otherwise (KEY results are `inconclusive`, or mix of `desired` and `inconclusive`) |

Modifiers (attach to any verdict):
- `GUARDRAIL_BREACH` - any `category: GUARDRAIL` result is `undesired`. An
  `undesired` SUPPORTING or ALERT result affects the verdict but is not a
  guardrail breach. By row order, `WINNER` never carries this modifier.
- `DATA_QUALITY_CONCERN` - more than half of KEY results are in a `NO_DATA_*`
  state; any result is `NO_DATA_SERVER_ERROR`/`FAILED_METRIC`; or any
  GUARDRAIL/ALERT result is in a `NO_DATA_*` state at all. A guardrail that
  never received data is a monitoring gap, not just a data point to omit.

### Step 8: Explain the results

Default to plain language. Link [concepts.md](../../../references/fme/concepts.md#experiments-and-metrics) for SRM and peeking caveats. Lead with verdict, then why. Describe trade-offs, not business decision. `DATA_QUALITY_CONCERN`: say so plainly, and call out any duplicate/conflicting rows or missing metric×treatment combinations Step 4 found. `WINNER` or `MIXED`: add one line: SRM isn't exposed through API; check experiment's results page in Harness UI before acting. Fixed-horizon + before review period: say readout is preliminary - if the verdict is `WINNER`, report it as `WINNER (preliminary)` in the Output Format and don't call it actionable until the review period ends or the test type is `SEQUENTIAL`. Inconclusive but not significance-tested: say why (e.g. `ACROSS` metric). `calculatedAt` non-null: include timestamp. `pvalue` null (e.g. `WAITING_NORMALITY`): don't quote `value`/impact as confident. `GUARDRAIL_BREACH` + `MIXED`: lead with breach.
