Claims (2)

claim

Weak-tier models often fail to invoke relevant harness artifacts during task-solving, with Qwen3-32B showing a 25% load rate against ~96% for strong models
supports
Diagnosis of first failure mode explaining low harness-benefit for weak-tier models
Weak-tier model deficits are not in task understanding but in protocol-level and procedural execution: they identify the right skill but cannot operate under it
supports
Diagnostic claim from case studies of activation and adherence failures in Qwen3-32B
