Harnesses

Same model, different drivers. ChatGPT is not OpenCode. $ / MU is only set when every official task passed. $ / pass still shows on a partial run; it does not rank. Time is output tokens at 80 tok/s, not wall clock.

Retry tax

Attempts are harness calls, including failed hidden-verifier retries. Extra tries stay in the bill.

Cache hits

Hits divided by uncached input plus hits. No cache means the harness did not report a discount.
