 Underlying evaluation signals used in this run:
 
-- No Tier 3 evaluation signal details were available in this report.
+- `security` (Security): checks for unsafe operations, secret leakage, and unauthorized access.
+- `skill_execution` (Skill Execution): verifies that the agent loaded the expected skill and workflow.
+- `skill_efficiency` (Efficiency): checks routing quality, decoy avoidance, and redundant tool usage.
+- `accuracy` (Accuracy): grades final-answer correctness against the reference answer.
+- `goal_accuracy` (Goal Accuracy): checks whether the overall user task completed successfully.
+- `behavior_check` (Behavior Check): verifies expected behavior steps, including safety expectations.
+- `token_efficiency` (Token Efficiency): compares token usage with and without the skill.
 
 ## Test Tasks
 
-Tier 3 evaluation task details were not available in this report.
+The benchmark dataset contained 5 evaluation tasks:
+
+- Positive tasks: 1 tasks where the skill was expected to activate.
+- Negative tasks: 4 tasks where no skill was expected.
+- Unlabeled tasks: 0 tasks where positive/negative intent could not be inferred.
+
+Task composition is derived from the evaluation dataset when possible. Entries with `expected_skill` set are treated as positive skill-activation cases, while entries with `expected_skill: null` are treated as negative activation cases.
