DAYJOB: Finance (October 2026 rescoring)
Finance & Accounting
Surge's DAYJOB: Finance board as rescored between its October 23 and October 27, 2026 site builds, on 80 assignments built by finance professionals. The page has no changelog and names no metric or rubric threshold. The paper and dataset card still describe passing only on every rubric criterion, and the launch post still quotes the old 23.9% leader. Surge doesn't say what the new scores measure, but against the paper's strict column they reproduce its statistics for a 95% rubric threshold, which Surge states only for DAYJOB: Tax: Kendall tau-b 0.92 and the top five multiplied by 1.8 on average. Every value fits 400 attempts, five per task as the linked harness repository states; that repository, unchanged since September 23, also names a Claude Opus 4.8 judge. Kept apart from the original board because scores rose by as much as 18.6 points (Claude Opus 5.5 Max, 23.9 to 42.5).
