Charts
Partial coverage. Codex – GPT-5.6 Luna (high): Earth-Bench V2 incomplete; GeoBenchX incomplete; 46 of 221 GS-QA2 tasks. Grey placeholders identify these entries in the index, cost and output token charts; their height does not represent a value. Comparable bars appear when first-attempt coverage is complete. Their available results remain in the side-by-side table.
