| **AI Service QoS — Independent Measurement of What Users Actually Receive** — methodology v0.1, and the first data product of an independent, outside-in measurement framework. The system measured here is **Case Study 1**, not the subject: the framework claims provider neutrality and one provider is not proof of it — a second provider measured with *these same definitions and no new ones* is the test (paper section 7, Stage 3). | |
| Machine-checkable evidence for **"AI Service QoS: An Independent Outside-In Measurement Methodology, with Case Study 1 (Qwen3.8-Max / Qoder)"** (`paper_ai_QoS.md`, with the practitioner report | |
| `report_qwenAliServiceQuality.md`). It is a request-level measurement of the | |
| service quality an ordinary user experiences in an artificial-intelligence coding | |
| service, taken entirely from the client's own runtime log, with no provider | |
| cooperation and no access to the provider's infrastructure. | |
| ## Dataset details | |
| ### Where each layer of this project lives | |
| This repository is the **data layer**. The method document (`paper_ai_QoS.md`) and | |
| **Case Study 1** (`report_qwenAliServiceQuality.md`), the vendor-facing report with the | |
| per-event tables and the asks, are in the source repository: | |
| <https://github.com/2makeitwork/paper_ai_Qos> — together with the collector, the | |
| anonymiser and the log mirror that produced these files. Two scripts ship **here** as | |
| well, so that nothing in this card has to be taken on trust inside this repository: | |
| `scripts/analyze.py` re-derives and asserts every published figure against `evidence/`, | |
| and `scripts/verify_dataset_card.py` asserts this card against the files it declares. | |
| ### Motivation | |
| Capability benchmarks score answers; provider dashboards report what the provider | |
| chooses to measure. Neither answers the user's question — *did my request get a | |
| usable answer, and how long did I wait?* This dataset exists so that question can | |
| be asked of a service from the outside, and so every number in the paper can be | |
| recomputed from these files rather than taken on trust. | |
| ### Verification after publication | |
| The whole published repository was downloaded back into an empty directory and compared file by | |
| file with the tag it was built from — which is exactly what `scripts/check_release_sync.py` does, | |
| so this is re-checkable by a reader rather than autobiographical. Measured 2026-09-11 against tag | |
| `v1.0.2`: **every data-layer file agrees byte for byte**, `README.md` included — that file | |
| is this card with its three internal-instruction lines removed, and the source repository's own | |
| `README.md` is a different document, its homepage. The hub holds one file no tag contains: the | |
| `.gitattributes` it created with the repository. The generated table ends with a line carrying a | |
| content hash and a second-precision timestamp: the hash is what a machine compares, the time is | |
| what a person reads, and when the statistics are unchanged the script leaves the file alone — so | |
| running the checks cannot dirty a checkout or produce new bytes, and two copies with the same hash | |
| hold the same statistics whatever their stamps say. (Incidental finding for anyone scripting the | |
| client: `hf download --include` accepts repeated patterns but only honoured the last one, so pass | |
| one pattern per invocation.) | |
| Both scripts were then executed **inside that download**, with nothing else present: | |
| `scripts/verify_dataset_card.py` exits 0, and `scripts/analyze.py` fails nothing — printing a skip | |
| for the checks that compare the paper with the case report, since those narratives live in the | |
| source repository and their absence is announced rather than passed over as a pass. | |
| ### Composition | |
| | Path | Contents | | |
| |---|---| | |
| | `evidence/logs/` | 388 kilobytes: the 33-event timeout extract, 1,252 conversation-lifecycle lines from the client's task tracker, 885 per-interaction phase lines, 50 quota-error log lines with payload variants, the outcome census | | |
| | `evidence/config/` | 108 kilobytes: the fetched error-code dictionary entries, the model-registry line and the bring-your-own-key definitions that show the 180,000-versus-1,000,000 contradiction, the selected context presets, the environment record | | |
| | `evidence/stats/` | 44 kilobytes: 20-conversation transcript size table, the context-growth curve, the merged timeline, the round-1 request-lifecycle table | | |
| | `evidence/incident_20260910/` | 20 kilobytes: the second collection round — 62 request episodes carrying per-request **context occupancy in tokens**, plus its own README | | |
| | `evidence/screenshots/` | 152 kilobytes: the operator's screen showing nine consecutive timeout banners in one conversation | | |
| | `evidence/error_messages.json` | Every string the paper quotes, verbatim, in one place | | |
| | `analysis/summary_tables.md` | The derived statistics, regenerated and asserted by `scripts/analyze.py` | | |
| Totals: 25 files, 724 kilobytes under `evidence/`, plus the generated analysis | |
| table. Two collection rounds, deliberately separate: 2026-09-01 → 09-09 (frozen | |
| bundle, conversation labels `sess-01` … `sess-20`) and 2026-09-10 (labels `S1` …, | |
| own frozen log snapshot). | |
| ### How to load it, and how to check that this card is telling the truth | |
| The six tabular files are declared as named configs, so a reader loads a table | |
| directly instead of eyeballing markdown: | |
| ```python | |
| from datasets import load_dataset | |
| round2 = load_dataset("2makeitwork/paper_ai_Qos", name="request_lifecycle_round2") | |
| round2["train"].num_rows # 62 request episodes | |
| round2["train"][0]["used_tokens_at_send"] | |
| ``` | |
| The six configs: `request_lifecycle_round1` — 308 rows, `request_lifecycle_round2` — | |
| 62 rows, `session_sizes` — 20 rows, `context_growth` — 93 rows, `timeline_events` — | |
| 51 rows, `timeout_events` — 33 rows. Everything else under `evidence/` — the log | |
| extracts, the configuration records, the screenshot — is deliberately **not** a | |
| config: those are line-oriented evidence files meant to be read and grepped, and | |
| flattening them into a table would destroy the timestamps that make them | |
| verifiable. | |
| Two independent checks, one offline and one after upload: | |
| ```bash | |
| python3 scripts/verify_dataset_card.py # every declared file exists, every | |
| # declared column matches its header, | |
| # row counts match the card text | |
| python3 scripts/analyze.py # re-derives and asserts every published figure | |
| ``` | |
| ```bash | |
| python3 -c "from datasets import load_dataset; \ | |
| [load_dataset('2makeitwork/paper_ai_Qos', name=n)['train'] for n in \ | |
| ['request_lifecycle_round1','request_lifecycle_round2','session_sizes', \ | |
| 'context_growth','timeline_events','timeout_events']]; print('LOADABLE')" | |
| ``` | |
| **State as published (first upload 2026-09-10, commit `16a35ca`; revised in place since).** Confirmed by the hub: the | |
| repository is public, 36 files, and the front matter was parsed — its tags carry | |
| `license:cc-by-4.0`, `size_categories:n<1K` and `language:en`. **Confirmed by the hub** later the same day | |
| (2026-09-10): its conversion endpoint returned **all six** configs with their `train` | |
| splits — `request_lifecycle_round1`, `request_lifecycle_round2`, `session_sizes`, | |
| `context_growth`, `timeline_events`, `timeout_events` — which is what `load_dataset` and | |
| the dataset Viewer read. Minutes after the first commit the same endpoint returned | |
| `500 Internal Server Error`, so the conversion is asynchronous and a single early | |
| failure means nothing. One thing this does **not** establish: the `datasets` library is | |
| not installed on the workstation that published this, so the Python snippet above has | |
| not been executed here — the configs are server-converted, not snippet-verified. | |
| The non-tabular part of the bundle stays browsable and downloadable either way; | |
| making a file loadable is not the same as making it required for reproduction. | |
| ### Collection process | |
| A single workstation, a single subscription account, one operator, nine plus one | |
| days. The client's runtime log tree was mirrored continuously (append-only, one | |
| file per path and inode, each committed region re-hashed on every scan so an | |
| in-place edit of already-written log bytes is detectable), frozen as checksummed | |
| snapshots, then filtered to named log anchors and anonymised by script. Nothing | |
| was typed by hand into any file under `evidence/`. | |
| ## Personal and private content | |
| **Conversations are not included.** Full chat transcripts carry third-party | |
| project content, so they are excluded from the bundle entirely; only statistics, | |
| error-related log extracts and configuration records pass through. Identifiers are | |
| replaced by a deterministic, script-built map — paths, user names, host names, | |
| local network addresses, account and model identifiers, application programming | |
| interface keys, and every conversation identifier (report `anonymization.md`). The | |
| anonymizer fails with a non-zero exit code if any forbidden pattern survives its | |
| own output, and a repository-wide gate re-checks every published file, link and | |
| ignored directory: | |
| ```bash | |
| python3 scripts/analyze.py # re-derives and asserts every published figure | |
| python3 scripts/verify_dataset_card.py # asserts this card against the files it declares | |
| python3 scripts/check_release_sync.py # compares this repository's bytes with the source | |
| # repository and the Zenodo record | |
| ``` | |
| The first two run offline and exit 0 in either repository — the source repository and this | |
| data layer — against the files shipped here. The third reaches the hub (and Zenodo, given a | |
| record identifier) and is the release-time check that the copy you are reading is byte-for-byte | |
| the copy in the other places: it reports drift rather than asserting agreement, because the | |
| three locations are updated by different commands and nothing synchronises them. Anything not | |
| listed above is author-side tooling, or needs material deliberately not published here — the raw | |
| client logs, which carry local paths and real conversation identifiers. The commands above are | |
| what a reader can actually run, so they are what this card asks a reader to run. | |
| Pseudonyms (`sess-NN` in round 1, `S1`… in round 2) are numbered by the data's own | |
| order; the mapping to real conversation identifiers is not published and cannot be | |
| recovered from these files. | |
| ## Uses | |
| ```bash | |
| python3 scripts/analyze.py # re-derives and asserts every published figure from evidence/ | |
| ``` | |
| The log-side tools are source-repository material and are **not published here**: | |
| `scripts/latency_from_logs.py` needs the raw client logs, which | |
| carry local paths and real conversation identifiers and are never distributed. What does ship | |
| here re-runs from these files, and `methodology.md`, "What re-runs, and from what", states the | |
| boundary honestly rather than implying a full rebuild. | |
| Use it to reuse the event schema, to check the paper's arithmetic, to compare your | |
| own provider against the method, or as training data for nothing at all — see | |
| below. | |
| ### Out-of-scope uses | |
| Not a model-quality benchmark and not a leaderboard: it measures the service, not | |
| the answers, and one account over ten days cannot rank providers. Not suitable as | |
| model training data — it contains no conversational text by design. Not a | |
| certification of the named products; the vendor's replies are collected in | |
| `ask_vendor.md` and were not received at publication time. | |
| ## Limitations | |
| Single workstation, single account, single model pair, ten days, no provider | |
| cooperation. Observational except for one within-conversation pair (context | |
| compaction). Log retention is size-based and shallow, so the earliest events of a | |
| busy conversation are unrecoverable. The client's timeout threshold is inferred | |
| from its own state machine, not documented by the vendor. Request **size** is | |
| available from the client only as context occupancy; output-token and | |
| cached-input-token counts are absent, which is why the mechanism question stays | |
| open. State each of these whenever the data is reused. | |

| **What to cite, in order.** The paper is the object; this dataset is its evidence. Cite | |
| `paper_ai_QoS.md` at a tag for the method and the findings, this repository for the observations, and | |

| [10.5281/zenodo.22701430](https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.22701430) covers every archived version of | |
| the released software, while each version carries its own — `v1.0.0` is | |
| [10.5281/zenodo.22701431](https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.22701431) and `v1.0.1` is | |

| Cite the **snapshot**, name the **collection round**, and cite the **client version | |
| plus service** rather than the model alone — a client-side watchdog misattributed to | |
| a model is the most likely misquote. `CITATION.cff` carries the machine-readable | |
| form; the positioning against prior measurement work is in the paper's section 1.4, with each | |
| work's own identifier given there. | |
