Core metrics
- Mission completion rate: Percent of missions reaching usable resolution or explicit next-step output.
- Escalation rate: Percent of missions requiring user re-approval for sensitive decisions.
- Average time to first meaningful update: Time to first actionable status artifact.
- Average time to mission resolution: End-to-end time from dispatch to completed or ready-with-clear-blocker.
- Evidence completeness rate: Presence of contact, reference ID, and next-step fields.

Interpretation notes
- Higher escalation can indicate better risk controls, not worse quality.
- Compare by scenario class (billing, healthcare admin, claims) rather than one blended number.
- Track trends weekly and monthly instead of one-off snapshots.
