### 03 · waiter

**I expected:** STYLE: pick Red as the colour in the glass

**I saw:** answered Style=Red; tab Style -> Occasion (selecting the card auto-advanced the wizard on its own - did NOT press Next, since Next here would have skipped the next question)

### 04 · waiter

**I expected:** OCCASION: pick Casual Dinner

**I saw:** answered Occasion=Casual Dinner; tab Occasion -> Taste (auto-advanced on select)

### 05 · waiter

**I expected:** TASTE: drag the body slider toward Rich

**I saw:** dragged the body slider toward Rich; tab Taste -> Budget (pressed Next to advance)

### 06 · waiter

**I expected:** BUDGET: pick the $100-$180 band

**I saw:** answered Budget=$100-$180; tab Budget -> Country (auto-advanced on select)

### 07 · waiter

**I expected:** COUNTRY: pick United States

**I saw:** answered Country=United States; tab Country -> Vintage

### 08 · waiter

**I expected:** VINTAGE (last question): drag toward a newer year

**I saw:** dragged the vintage slider; tab Vintage -> null (null = wizard finished) (pressed Next)

### 09 · waiter

**I expected:** read the resulting 'Best matches right now' panel

**I saw:** "Best matches right now" panel present: true; top match score seen: 95%; text="0 3 WINE SOMMELIER Reset Show question ▾ STYLE Red ✕ OCCASION Casual dinner ✕ TASTE Medium, dry ✕ BUDGET $100–180 ✕ COUNTRY United States ✕ VINTAGE Best matches right now Top 4 of 185 bottles · re-ranks with every answer 95% Penner-Ash, Pinot Noir, Willamette Valley Oregon 2022 2022 RED Penner-Ash · Willamette Valley, United States · pinot noir A medium-bodied red, matched to a casual night, withi"

> **Finding, not asserted as pass/fail here:** selecting a Style/Budget/Country card auto-advances the wizard by itself; the Next button ALSO advances. A waiter who taps an answer then reflexively taps the still-enabled Next button skips the following question with no warning and no way to tell it happened from this screen alone. Reproduced live 2026-09-08 (Style=Red -> Next landed on Taste, Occasion never shown).

**Verdict:** WALKED

**Why it ended here:** walked the full six-question Ask the Sommelier flow end to end as a real waiter would - Style, Occasion, Taste (slider), Budget, Country, Vintage (slider) - and read the resulting live-ranked match panel. One real product behaviour was discovered along the way (see the note above) and is reported as a finding, not a spec failure.
