Evaluation protocol

Measure agentic follow-through

01

Choose a representative agentic task

Use a real coding, research, or tool workflow with clear permissions, acceptance tests, and a human sign-off. Avoid deciding from a single generated answer.

02

Record effort and review cost

Track tool calls, retries, output tokens, wall time, accepted changes, and review effort. Provider token price is only one part of completed-task cost.

03

Verify the time-sensitive fields

The launch price changes after August 31, 2026. Context windows, plan limits, regions, and feature access also need a live provider check.
