ORBench reproduction protocol v1

Seed: 25. Code version: 0.1.0. Solver: OR-Tools CP-SAT, 1 thread, 6–8 seconds.

1. Generate the catalog with python scripts/build_artifacts.py.
2. Each problem stores schema_payload, bilingual prompts, gold_status, gold_objective, and gold_solution.
3. Evaluated methods: structured-solver, heuristic, json-extractor+solver, template-extractor+solver, naive-direct.
4. Listed but not run: Qwen/Qwen3-4B-Instruct-2507, Qwen/Qwen3.8-27B, moonshotai/Kimi-K3, zai-org/GLM-5.3, deepseek-ai/DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash. Cells are not_evaluated.
5. Gap = max(0, (method_obj − gold_obj) / max(1, |gold_obj|)) only if gold status is optimal and the method plan is feasible.
6. Paid APIs stay off. Do not substitute a second paid provider when the first is missing.
7. Synthetic results in this dataset are not customer data.

Run pytest tests/test_pipeline.py after generation. A passing suite is the acceptance check for constraint validation, split hygiene, and honest unevaluated cells.
