Summary

P1 — Broad Coverage evaluates 4 models on 15 XORCISE missions. One mission per specialty — generalist capability leaderboard. Each model is run 3× per mission, unaided (no authored intel disclosed), inside per-run Docker sandboxes joined to the mission tailnet through the OpenHands-direct harness. Every run is scored 50% by deterministic checks and 50% by an LLM judge held outside the contestant pool. Figures are computed from the run data.

Consistency — agreement across runs

Each model × mission cell ran multiple times. Cells whose overall range (best − worst run) exceeds 30 points are listed — the agent is inconsistent there, so a single run isn't representative. Widest spread first.
