Retained because it is the highest-scoring model on the Aider polyglot benchmark and is still list-priced.

Benchmark rows

Where the pass rate comes from

Every row that names this model, with its harness and cost basis. Rows are harness + model combinations, not properties of the bare model.

stale peers

Cost per solved task against its peers

Stale rows only, heavy tier, 200 tasks a month. Lower is better. These are Solvency estimates, not observed costs.
