# Experiment 56G — Validate Unresolved Uncertainty Through Live Production Path
**Date**: 2026-08-09
**Branch**: feature/reasoning-fidelity-v0.8
**Type**: Live experiment — BLOCKED by apparatus failure
**Status**: BLOCKED - apparatus
---
## Objective
Answer: When the user says "I'm not really sure.", does the production path preserve that uncertainty instead of resolving or strengthening the risk-constraint distinction?
## Fixed Case — Regression C
- **Source**: "I want the business to grow, but I don't want to take on more risk."
- **Previous question**: "Is avoiding additional risk a hard constraint or a preference/trade-off?"
- **Answer**: "I'm not really sure."
- **Expected preserved meaning**: User is uncertain about whether avoiding additional risk is a hard constraint or preference/trade-off.
- **Expected uncertainty**: Full — no position taken.
## Apparatus Failure
The canonical helper (`tests/graph/live-update-experiment-helper.cjs`) contains a broken import path:
```js
const { updateCase } = await import("../lib/graph/orchestrator.js");
```
From its location at `tests/graph/`, this resolves to `tests/lib/graph/orchestrator.js` — which does not exist. The correct relative path is `../../lib/graph/orchestrator.js`.
The canonical helper cannot invoke the production path without a fix to this import.
## Result
**BLOCKED - apparatus**
No live calls were made. No experiment data captured.
## Evidence
- File exists: `./lib/graph/orchestrator.js` (project root)
- File missing: `tests/lib/graph/orchestrator.js`
- Broken path: `../lib/graph/orchestrator.js` from `tests/graph/live-update-experiment-helper.cjs`

*Status pending Rob's review. Requires canonical helper import path fix before this experiment can proceed.*
