Big Brain 27B — Cron Kubernetes Bias Mitigation

Finding (2026-04-14)

27B defaults to generating Kubernetes CronJob format when asked for cron configuration.

Mitigation

Add explicit constraint to prompt:

Write standard cron YAML (NOT Kubernetes) for fleet burn-down...

Before/After

Prompt Output
"Write cron YAML for..." apiVersion: batch/v1, kind: CronJob
"Write standard cron YAML (NOT Kubernetes) for..." Standard cron format without k8s headers

Implication

The bias is default behavior, not a hard limitation. The model follows explicit constraints.

Prompt Pattern

Always specify "standard cron YAML, not Kubernetes" when prompting 27B for infrastructure tasks.

Source

Benchmark runs in #576. Closes #649, #652.
