We provide sufficient conditions on a positive function so that the associated special flow over any irrational rotation is either weak mixing or $L^2$-conjugate to a suspension flow. This gives the first such complete classification within the class of Liouville dynamics. This rigidity coexists with a plethora of pathological behaviors.
