Ben YounesandClaude Opus 4.8 955fff537c feat(benchmarks): add completeness judge so LOC wins can't hide under-delivery (#171)
The LOC tier scores the open feature tasks (vibe-*, tmpl-fe-*, open-*) on
git diff alone -- score_vibe only checks "it compiles", score_fixture only
checks "a new file exists". So an arm can win the LOC metric by shipping a
stub: fewer lines because it does less, not because it is less bloated.
That is the most credible attack left on the headline number raised in #126.

complete.py is a second LLM judge (same auditable footing as judge.py: fixed
model, temperature 0, published rubric) that rates how FULLY each submission
implements its task, 0..3. Read alongside the LOC table, a low-LOC arm whose
completeness also drops is caught, not rewarded.

- judge_call gains a `system=` param so the HTTP/key/source plumbing is reused
  instead of duplicated (one rubric is the only delta between the two passes).
- --selftest: the judge must rank a complete reference strictly above a stub.
- --selftest-offline: validates the gate logic with no API call / no key.
- README documents the pass and updates the can/cannot-show limitations.

Fixes #126

"""LLM-judge COMPLETENESS pass for the agentic benchmark.
Fewer lines is only a win if the code still does the job. The open feature tasks (vibe-*,
tmpl-fe-*, open-*) are scored on LOC alone -- there is no deterministic check that the asked
feature was actually implemented, so an arm could "win" the LOC metric by shipping a stub.
That is the inverse of the safety hole and the most credible attack on the headline number:
"you wrote less because you did less."
This pass closes it. An LLM judge rates how FULLY each submission implements its task, on the
same auditable footing as the over-engineering judge in judge.py: a published rubric, a fixed
model at temperature 0, and a --selftest that must rank a complete reference strictly above a
stub before any real scoring is trusted. Pair the output with run.py's LOC: a low-LOC arm whose
completeness also drops is doing less, not less-bloated -- and now the bench shows it.
python complete.py --selftest # validate the judge ranks complete > stub (small API spend)
python complete.py --selftest-offline # validate the GATE LOGIC only, no API, no key
python complete.py --run runs/<stamp> # completeness-judge every workspace in a matrix run
Judge: claude-sonnet-4-6, key from ../../.env (shared with judge.py). ~$0.003/cell.
ponytail: reuses judge.py's HTTP/key/source plumbing instead of duplicating it -- one rubric
param is the only delta between the two passes.
