CLAIM-2026-10-12-05
On mini-swe-agent the monitored run cost 1.03M tokens per task against 1.42M unmonitored, while on Moatless it cost 0.48M against 0.32M.
Why it matters
Supervision paid for itself on the weaker agent and cost money on the stronger one, which is what decides where an inspection budget goes.
