The passage around this formula
Let \{0,1\} indicate whether evaluation task i is resolved. The familiar score . is an estimate of success probability only for a distribution represented by those n instances and the evaluated system. The system is not just a model. It includes context retrieval, tools, prompts, retries, execution limits, and candidate selection. The evaluation distribution is not “software engineering.” It is a constructed sample with inclusion criteria, repository mix, languages, issue styles, and executable tests.
