Where the article explains it
where D is the task distribution, M the model snapshot, H the harness, B the inference and retry budget, P permissions, X the execution environment, V verification, and the evaluation date.
The passage around this formula
where D is the task distribution, M the model snapshot, H the harness, B the inference and retry budget, P permissions, X the execution environment, V verification, and the evaluation date. Omitting any of these makes reproduction or comparison weaker.
