HarnessOpt-Bench measured optimizer-model swaps at 0.142 average gain versus 0.079 for harness swaps. And explore broadly rather than reading traces closely: exploration correlated +0.34 to +0.88 with gains, detailed trace inspection correlated -0.31 to -0.64. Budget your case passes, not your eval calls: case-pass utilization ran 82% median against 4%.
