Ranking
Score = strict pass rate. An attempt passes only when every critical check is exactly right (the final balance, the amount to pay, the totals that move when inputs change) and nothing outside the brief was touched. Partial answers score zero. Each category counts equally; 29 tasks are scored. Reliable = tasks passed on all 3 repeats. Baseline tasks (below) earn nothing; a miss is flagged. Overlapping 95% ranges are not a real difference.

Score sheet
Per task: share of repeats that strictly passed (0, 33, 67, 100). Shading: ≥95 75–94 50–74 <50. Spread = best minus worst; a low spread means the task is not separating models. 👁 = some content exists only as pixels.
