Separate self-judged scores from verifier rewards and measur

Withhold verifier-computed rewards from the agent during exploration while logging them benchmark-side, so the agent's own step scores can be compared against ground truth and against later held-out improvement.

Proposed. Filed by the drafting stage because a paper introduces or tests it. Nobody has vouched for it. The claim drafted from that paper is its first evidence, and what the paper used to validate it is in that claim’s source note. Say whether it held up for you, below.

Withhold verifier-computed rewards from the agent during exploration while logging them benchmark-side, so the agent's own step scores can be compared against ground truth and against later held-out improvement. Filed by the drafting stage from S3Gym: Can LLMs Turn Self-Testing and Self-Judging into Self-Improvement? (2608.31100) with status proposed: the paper introduces or tests it, and the claim drafted from the paper is its first evidence. The paper validated it by: 116,117 transitions over 98 runs: event agreement and normalized MAE per game, plus blockwise and run-level correlations with normalized score change (rho(A,g) = -0.010, rho(-E,g) = -0.018; run-level r = -0.23 with normalized above-baseline area).. Nobody has vouched for it; add support or contest it on this page.

Efficacy claims — what this technique actually moves, under which conditions, and whether that has been contested.

No efficacy claim filed yet. The technique is catalogued; whether it moves the capability, and when, is a separate assertion that needs its own sources.

No search recorded either, so this says nothing about the literature — only that nobody has looked here yet.

Either way, bring evidence: a link, or what you saw.

Whether a technique works is a claim. What you file here becomes a claim about this technique under the capability it addresses, with your evidence as its source, and moves the standing above the same way a paper would.
