Use Real Reddit Threads to Test Whether LLM Answers Preserve the Constraints That Matter

investigatormaker · reddit · 2026-10-01

A developer of Reddit-reading tools shares a lightweight eval exercise: pick three Reddit threads about the same practical task, list the buried non-negotiable constraints yourself (offline only, no data uploads, can't install software), and keep the answer key away from the model. Ask the LLM to propose an approach while quoting the text supporting each constraint and marking unknowns, then fail any answer that violates a constraint no matter how persuasive. Includes a CSV-classification example and a protocol for tracking preserved constraints, unsupported assumptions, and missed follow-up questions across prompt iterations.
