# Objective: the command that produces a score for an iteration.

# `direction` is "min" or "max". `parse` is one of:
# { kind = "float" } # stdout is the score
# { kind = "regex", pattern = "score=([0-9.]+)" } # first capture group
# { kind = "jq", path = ".metrics.bpb" } # JSON path lookup
#
# `fail_mode` controls what happens when scoring fails:
# "invalid" — discard the iteration, don't count it (default)
# "worst" — treat as the worst possible score
# "abort" — stop the whole run
