lookup_reference(reference="first-half")lookup_reference(reference="second-half")
Reasoning
Payroll month 2025-11. Only 2026 is covered. So month without a reference row → clarify NO_APPLICABLE_REFERENCE, citing R1 and R7.

Wait, but let me check the reference tables to be sure. Let me lookup first-half and second-half.

Actually the rules say only 2026 is covered. 2025-11 is outside 2026. Let me verify with lookup_reference.

No reference row applies to 2025-11, and an old row must not be extrapolated. Please provide a payroll month within the covered 2026 range."
}
Reasoning
The payroll month is 2025-11, which is not covered by any reference row (only 2026-01 to 2026-12). So decision: clarify, reason_code: NO_APPLICABLE_REFERENCE, citing R1 and R7.

Order of checks: gross_pay present, payroll_month present, month without a reference row → NO_APPLICABLE_REFERENCE. Yes.

Return JSON with decision, reason_code, clauses, and short explanation.

Wait, but let me check the reference lookup to be sure. The month 2025-11 is outside 2026, so no applicable reference. R7 item 3.

Let me confirm by lookup? The rule says only 2026 covered. So no applicable reference. Return clarify.

Actually, let me double-check whether there's a reference row covering 2025-11. Let me look up both references.

Reasoning
The payroll month is 2025-11, which is outside 2026. R1 says only 2026 is covered, dates outside 2026 require clarification under R7. So this is NO_APPLICABLE_REFERENCE.

Wait, let me check. R7 rule 3: A month without a reference row: return clarify with NO_APPLICABLE_REFERENCE, citing R1 and R7.

The month 2025-11 is outside 2026, so no reference row. Let me verify by checking the reference tables.

Let me lookup references to confirm.

Please provide a payroll month within a covered reference period (or the applicable reference schedule) so the payroll can be calculated."
}
Reasoning
The payroll month is 2025-11. Reference rows cover 2026-01 to 2026-06 and 2026-07 to 2026-12. So 2025-11 has no applicable reference row. Return clarify with NO_APPLICABLE_REFERENCE, citing R1 and R7.

Wait, but there's no contract_gross_pay or amendment. The order of checks: 1 missing gross_pay, 2 missing payroll_month, 3 month without reference row, 4 conflicting contract. Gross pay present, month present but no applicable row → NO_APPLICABLE_REFERENCE.

Let me produce the JSON. Include explanation naming the unresolved blocker.
