mecha-core 0.1.16

//! Grading agent runs.
//!
//! Built for one job: deciding which model to run locally. Final text is a poor
//! signal for that — what matters is whether the model picked the right tool,
//! passed well-formed arguments, and stopped when it should have. So cases are
//! graded on the **tool-call trace** first and the text second.
//!
//! Cases are read-only against a shared fixture by default. That makes them
//! reproducible, safe to run at high concurrency, and repeatable across models —
//! which is the whole point of a bake-off.
//!
//! A case that must *write* — write a function, run the tests, fix what fails —
//! sets `sandbox: true` and gets a private throwaway copy of the fixture
//! instead. Same reproducibility, because nothing it does is visible to any
//! other case or to the next run.
