Round 01

Eiffel Tower drawing

The episode says all four unaided models pass, Astra finishes in 4 minutes 10 seconds, and price is small enough that the host sets it aside. Those unaided max ledgers are the chapter. Astra's ledger display is 4m 10s and the judge passes. A separate Astra planner plus Jev run is supplemental and is not one of the four columns.

Pass or fail is the judge result on the unaided max ledgers. Narrated price talk is not copied as a measurement. Astra's preferred picture is an operator-rendered cycles hero whose trajectory checksums match the canonical ledger. clips.public.json still pins the browser capture, so the hero is not claimed as a canonical public-clips pin.

Round 02

Flooded neo-gothic city

The episode says Sonnet took almost an hour, Astra was quick, and the host had this test on high rather than max. Sonnet's ledger reasoning is max and its elapsed time is 56m 44s. Opus has three partial high attempts. The latest partial attempt is the primary row and the earlier partials stay attached. No attempt is marked passed.

Round 03

Infinite cathedral

The episode contrasts the families' look and gives Astra about 26 minutes, Sol about 36 minutes, and Opus about 1 hour 40 minutes, with the Claude runs near two hours. Astra's display is 26m 21.4s. Sol's invocation wall is 36m 40s. Opus's generation wall is 1h 42m 31s. Sonnet's elapsed time is 1h 51m 33s. Pending and partial ledger states stay as recorded.

Round 04

Turbofan CAD

The episode says the Claude runs take about 44 minutes and about $13 and $14, Sol takes almost an hour and $3 to $6, and Astra costs the most. Those figures match the CAD-001 artifact metrics: Sonnet list-rate $13.28 and 44m 56s, Opus list-rate $14.07 and 44m 60s-scale 2699.6 seconds, Sol's API-equivalent range $3.24 to $6.14 and 57m 17s, and the nested unaided Astra estimate $31.78 and 57m 57s. model_finished is not recorded as a motion-contract pass.

Round 05

The episode says every model passes, Astra is fastest, and the others are on high except GPT-6.1 Sol on max, which takes 44 minutes. Opus, Sonnet, and GPT-6.1 Sol have qualified_pass ledgers. Sol's wall is 44m 19s. Astra is shown and has a filename, and it has no harness ledger, so its pass, cost, and time stay unrecorded.

Round 06

Blossom arena

The episode says the Claude runs were stopped around $300 API-equivalent before the scenes were finished, and that the GPT models finished, with Astra at 6 hours 28 minutes. Opus attempt 1 is PARTIAL at $433.73 after a subscription-limit stop. Sonnet is partial_user_stopped at $312.27 over about three hours. GPT-6.1 Sol is partial_user_stopped with verdict STOPPED_PARTIAL. Those statuses stay. Astra's clean wall clock is unavailable; a supplemental span of 6h 28m 15.8s is recorded with an explicit scope warning and is not promoted to the measured clock.

Space flight

The episode describes a planet you can land on and explore, built from two supplied assets, and quotes Astra at $29 and 13 hours 38 minutes, Opus at $47, and Sonnet at $46.

Round 10

Oasis outpost

The episode says Sonnet is the cheapest at about $8, Sol is about $9 to $10 and took four hours, Astra is about $10, and Opus costs much more. Sonnet's API-equivalent is $8.24. Sol is partial_user_stopped at $9.62 and 4h 4m. Astra's recovered clock is 30m 09.5s and the API-equivalent is $10.43. Opus attempt 2 is COMPLETE at $43.55.

Functional in the narration does not clear Sonnet's partial_user_stopped status and does not turn QUALIFIED pending acceptance into a judge pass. Opus uses the deduplicated primary-session figure, not the uncorrected metrics-prompt total. Related results

Round 18

Neon Gunner

The episode says Sol costs $1.77 and takes 1 hour 9 minutes, Astra takes 44 minutes, and the Claude runs take about two hours. Sol's API-equivalent is $1.77 and the invocation wall is 1h 9m 50s, with verdict QUALIFIED. Astra's display is 44m 55.2s. Opus's quota-adjusted active workflow is 2h 1m 19s. Sonnet's elapsed time is 2h 1m 42s and the status remains partial_user_stopped.

Round 19

Sekiro main menu

The episode says the GPT models use an image-generation shortcut while Claude builds the scene in-engine, and that this is why the cost and time differ. Opus max is partial: 4h 14m 39.541s and $93.87 deduplicated API-equivalent, with the contestant visual review failed. A later high-effort Opus attempt is complete at 46m 30s and $11.17 and stays related, because the large cost gap matches the max run. Sol is $1.57 with verdict QUALIFIED. Sonnet is partial_user_stopped at $70.13.

Round 20

ATS depot driving

The episode shows Opus on high missing the turn inside the depot, then Astra on high reaching the road and then taking the wrong lane movement before the run is stopped. Neither completes the route. Sonnet has a same-window ledger and is not narrated: it stays in the depot. There is no GPT-6.1 Sol ledger. All three statuses are historical_exploratory_import_incomplete.

Method

  1. The 20 episode rounds are the published chapters. Supplemental footage is not an extra chapter.
  2. Astra planner + Jev clips are a different workflow from the unaided model attempts.
  3. Validation status comes from the ledger. Episode narration does not replace it.
  4. Missing cost, wall clock, and pass/fail stay blank.
  5. Inline footage plays only when the clip key and result id match one hash-bound public file.
  6. Robot captures are simulated. This episode records no physical trials.
  7. Games and visual artifacts were generated. Doom and ATS control existing simulations.
  8. Differing efforts and interventions are not one controlled single-configuration cohort.
  9. API-equivalent amounts are list-rate estimates, not billed charges.
  10. There is no aggregate score and no new blind-vote cohort.
