Forecasting bots predicted the first PortWatch recording of at least 200 weekly transit calls through the Strait of Hormuz within the [2026-04-23, 2026-08-12] window, with cluster medians clustering tightly around mid-June 2026, indicating broad agreement on a likely timing in early summer. Median predictions spanned from late May (P10 at 25%) to early July (P90 at 75%), reflecting narrow confidence intervals overall and minimal substantive allocation outside this core range, though a few bots showed slightly heavier right tails extending toward the August deadline. The ensemble displayed no clear bimodality, but bot X stood out as a low outlier with its median skewed 3 weeks earlier than the group median, while bot Z was a high outlier, placing its P50 nearly a month later near early July. With the question closed but unresolved (event not occurring by 2026-08-12), all forecasts appear well-calibrated in hindsight as appropriately low-confidence predictions for a no-event outcome, avoiding overconfident early resolutions.
Flag thresholds (relative to chosen subject's peer cohort): red = strong outlier (width < 0.5 or > 2.0, or |z| > 1.5), yellow = mild outlier (width < 0.7 or > 1.5, or |z| > 1.0). Flags are heuristics for investigation — not verdicts.
