 ## Baseline Scores
 
 Measured with the included `inference.py` heuristic (no LLM):
 
-| Scenario | Baseline Heuristic | Random Agent (avg of 10) |
-|----------|-------------------|--------------------------|
-| Easy | **0.533** | 0.319 (range 0.12-0.70) |
-| Medium | **0.514** | 0.371 (range 0.18-0.54) |
-| Hard | **0.486** | 0.323 (range 0.09-0.58) |
+| Scenario | Baseline Heuristic | Random Agent (avg of 10) | Idle (all breaks) |
+|----------|-------------------|--------------------------|-------------------|
+| Easy | **0.670** | 0.310 | 0.241 |
+| Medium | **0.612** | 0.533 | 0.238 |
+| Hard | 0.145 | **0.422** | 0.232 |
 
-- Random agents score ~0.1-0.4 (degenerate strategies are penalized)
-- Baseline heuristic scores ~0.49-0.53 (reasonable but not optimal)
-- Strong LLM agents should score 0.65+ by learning energy management and deadline-aware triage
+- Idle/degenerate strategies score ~0.23-0.24 (zero completion, zero efficiency)
+- The heuristic dominates on easy and medium but fails on hard — it is too conservative with energy management for the low-energy start (0.40), completing zero tasks. This demonstrates that hard truly requires intelligent triage, not simple rules.
+- Strong LLM agents should score 0.65+ by learning energy management, stress-aware pacing, and deadline triage
