A blog pipeline that researches, writes, verifies, and publishes on its own, plus the four gates that make it trustworthy.

TL;DR: The author's blog publishes articles fully automatically via a 2-hour cron pipeline that researches, drafts, verifies, and posts without human touch. Safety comes from strong brakes: verification gates that reject bad content, automatic rollback after publishing, and escalation to humans for taste calls. Full-auto is trusted only for mechanical tasks; editorial judgment stays human.

Search snippets claimed 95-96% on SWE-bench Verified. The official board says 79.2%. Four rules to keep benchmark numbers honest.

TL;DR: The author checked the actual SWE-bench Verified leaderboard and found the top score is 79.20%, not the 95%+ figures circulating in search snippets. The gap exposed how easily benchmark numbers get cited without opening primary sources. The fix: log access dates, trust only opened primaries, snippets lose conflicts, report tied scores as-is.
