 ## Progress Log
 - 2025-12-21: Created from "zero failures" requirement; codifies fail-fast harness policy.
+- 2025-12-22: Update tasks evaluation — main concerns are now obsolete.
 
 ## Completion Notes
-(Empty until done.)
+**Resolved via implementation fixes (not policy changes):**
+
+The main issues cited are no longer present:
+
+1. **Cross-open KNOWN_FAILs fixed**: `test-cross-open-parity.sh` now reports **24/24 PASS, 0 KNOWN_FAIL**
+   - XO-003, XO-004, XO-006 all pass after TASK-147, TASK-148 fixes
+
+2. **Schema evolution passes**: `test-schema-evolution.sh` reports **12/12 PASS, 0 SKIPPED**
+   - No "acceptable error" warnings
+
+3. **Remaining SKIPs are defensive**: Oracle comparison tests (like `test-sandbox.sh` Test 3) SKIP when Rust/C extension isn't built. This is intentional — oracle comparisons are optional.
+
+The "fail-fast/loud" posture is now the reality for all functional tests. Only oracle comparison tests can SKIP (when the comparison target doesn't exist).
+
+**Decision**: No further action needed. The harness suite already fails loudly on real issues.
