# GridOps — Agent Leaderboard

Benchmark results across 10 agents on the GridOps OpenEnv environment.
All runs use seed=42 for full reproducibility. Each task is 72 steps (3 days).

| 3 | DeepSeek V3.2 | 0.80 |
| 5 | Oracle | 0.79 |
| 5 | GPT-5.4 | 0.79 |
| 7 | GPT-5.4-mini | 0.72 |
| 8 | Qwen 3.6 Plus | 0.69 |

| 12 | Kimi K2.5 | 0.57 |
| 13 | Always-Diesel | 0.42 |

### Task 2: Heatwave + Price Spike (Medium)
*Tests temporal planning. Day 2-3 heatwave (+30% demand), Rs 20 evening price spike visible in 4h forecast.*

| Rank | Agent | Score |
|---:|---|:---:|
| 1 | Grok-4 | **0.82** |
| 2 | Oracle | 0.81 |

## Key Observations

1. **The environment cleanly differentiates capability.** A clean gradient from `do-nothing` (0.51 avg) through frontier LLMs (0.78). Every model lands in a different tier.

2. **Task 3 is the real differentiator.** The 6-hour grid outage forces true islanding behavior. Only Grok-4 and the Oracle handle it well (>0.70). Most LLMs collapse to ~0.45 — the same as do-nothing.

3. **Frontier LLMs match or beat the hand-coded oracle.** Grok-4 (0.78) > Oracle (0.77) — the environment is solvable by raw LLM reasoning, but requires real intelligence.

4. **Smaller LLMs barely beat do-nothing.** Kimi K2.5 (0.53) and Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview (0.55) are within rounding error of the do-nothing baseline (0.51) — they struggle to produce useful actions consistently.

5. **Capability scales with model size within a family.** GPT-5.4 (0.75) significantly outperforms GPT-5.4-mini (0.64). Same prompt, same environment — only the model size differs.

6. **The 0.20-0.35 gap between best and worst agents** proves the environment has real optimization headroom and isn't trivially solvable.

## Reproducibility

All scores are deterministic. To reproduce:

```bash
export API_BASE_URL="https://openrouter.ai/api/v1"
export HF_TOKEN="<your-key>"
export MODEL_NAME="<model-id>"
python inference.py
```

Output is structured `[START] / [STEP] / [END]` blocks with explicit task names and scores. Same seed (42) + same model = identical scores across runs.

To run hand-coded baselines (no API key needed):

```bash
python scripts/oracle_test.py
```
