1. 1Retroactive Git History vs. Actual Workflow4 points▸

   • What was requested: PROMPT.md and AGENTS.md asked the agent to work through PLAN.md one slice at a time (S0–S7), adding one failing test at a time, marking [x], and committing after each task.
   • The agent spent the first 22.5 minutes (lines 1–301, 150 LLM calls) building and debugging the entire codebase with zero git commits.
   • It frequently wrote full implementations before tests—for example, writing all 219 lines of request.ex (line 51) before request_test.exs (line 53), and writing runner.ex (line 79) before runner_test.exs (line 85).
   • In the final 4 minutes (lines 311–325), it ran Python scripts to uncheck and re-check PLAN.md slice-by-slice and create 8 sequential commits. Because all of lib/ was already committed in S1 (35084a9), the final 3 commits (S5–S7) only touched PLAN.md.
2. 2Two Subtle Systems Bugs Consumed ~40% of the Run4 points▸

   • Out of 32 failed tool results (isError: true), almost all stemmed from two subtle OS/BEAM interactions:
   • 1. A FIFO Deadlock in :file_server_2 Disguised as a TLS Bug (Lines 97, 151–203, 245–251) Because the BEAM intercepts SIGINT for its BREAK menu, the agent created a wrapper script cb that created a named pipe (mkfifo) via CB_INTERRUPT_FIFO and spawned a watcher in cli.ex calling File.read(fifo) (line 97). In Erlang/OTP, File.read/1 routes through :file_server_2, and opening a FIFO with no writer blocked the entire BEAM file server. When testing HTTPS with CB_CA_CERT_FILE via ./cb (lines 154–190, 10 consecutive failing test runs), File.read!(ca_file) inside request.ex hung waiting on :file_server_2, causing every CLI HTTPS request to time out after 6s even though direct CapyBench.Request.get/1 calls succeeded. At line 193, the agent replaced File.read(fifo) with Port.open spawning /bin/cat <fifo>, fixing TLS—only to discover at line 245 (ps -ef) that every non-interrupted run leaked an orphaned /bin/cat process, requiring another round of wrapper cleanup (lines 247–251).
   • 2. Sandbox PTY Restrictions on Ctrl-C Testing (Lines 39–40, 145, 223–237) Python's pty.openpty() failed with PermissionError: [Errno 1] Operation not permitted inside the sandbox (lines 40 & 145). The agent bypassed this at line 223 by using macOS /usr/bin/script -q /dev/null ./cb ... to allocate a pseudo-TTY and send \x03.
   • 3. Edit Tool Mismatches (6 errors) 6 of the 32 tool errors were edit calls failing due to non-unique or mismatched oldText (lines 120, 198, 210, 270, 282, 294).
3. 3Prompt Caching Saved 85% of the Run Cost ($9.97 Saved)3 points▸

   • 98.28% Cache Hit Rate Out of 5,632,768 total input tokens across 160 turns, 5,536,000 were served from cache (cacheRead) with zero cache invalidations/drops as the context grew steadily from 1,753 tokens (turn 1) to 74,400 tokens (turn 160).
   • Implied Unit Pricing & Savings: Uncached Input: $2.00 / 1M tokens • Cached Input (cacheRead): $0.20 / 1M tokens (90% discount) • Output: $10.00 / 1M tokens.
   • Without prefix caching, this run would have cost $11.69 instead of $1.72.
4. 4Latency Split, Tool Batching, and Reasoning Profile3 points▸

   • 50/50 LLM vs. Tool Wall-Clock Split: Total wall-clock time: 26m 59s (1,619.3s). LLM inference time: 13m 41s (820.5s, 50.7%), averaging 5.13s/turn (min 1.10s, max 25.52s when writing request.ex). Tool execution time: 13m 19s (798.8s, 49.3%), dominated by repeated mix escript.build and mix test runs containing multi-second benchmark/timeout sleeps.
   • Almost Zero Tool Parallelism: Out of 159 toolUse turns, 157 turns called only a single tool (only the first 2 exploration turns batched 4 tool calls).
   • Selective Reasoning despite thinkingLevel: "high" Reasoning tokens averaged just 98.7 tokens/turn (15,787 total, 37.6% of output tokens). 46 of 160 turns (28.8%) used 0 reasoning tokens (primarily firing mix format && mix test immediately after an edit), while complex debugging/verification turns spiked up to 1,258 reasoning tokens (line 287).
