3. Warnings & Gate Issues
⚠️ gate_g1 — LOW_FRESHNESS only 0.0% of 142 quotes are non-stale (threshold 90%); freshness is a soft signal — gate still passes if Tier 1 passes
⚠️ gate_g3 — LOW_NOVELTY only 9.5% of 42 symptoms are new (threshold 30%); novelty is a soft signal — gate still passes, but downstream humans should sanity-check whether this run added real signal
⚠️ gate_g4 — LOW_DIVERSITY only 18/42 active symptoms (42.9%) have at least one quote (threshold 80%)
⚠️ gate_g1 — LOW_FRESHNESS only 0.0% of 146 quotes are non-stale (threshold 90%); freshness is a soft signal — gate still passes if Tier 1 passes
⚠️ gate_g2 — LOW_FRESHNESS only 37/80 (46.2%) of quotes are week-fresh (threshold 60%); freshness is a soft signal — gate still passes
⚠️ gate_g3 — LOW_NOVELTY only 1.7% of 58 symptoms are new (threshold 30%); novelty is a soft signal — gate still passes, but downstream humans should sanity-check whether this run added real signal
⚠️ gate_g4 — LOW_DIVERSITY only 18/58 active symptoms (31.0%) have at least one quote (threshold 80%)
