- Task / subject
- The model or agent in the stated task configuration.
- Measurement target
- Separates detection, patching and exploitation modes with their stated task sets.
- Scoring / outcome
- Detect · Source-reported measurement under the recorded configuration.
- Interpretation boundary
- Modes and task subsets cannot be combined into an undifferentiated cyber-risk score.

- Measurement construct
- Can agents detect, patch and exploit historical smart-contract vulnerabilities?
- Task population
- 117 curated vulnerabilities from forty audits support separate modes; isolated-chain execution and deterministic transaction replay validate exploit tasks.
- Scoring and failure modes
- Separate detection recall, patch validation and programmatically verified exploit score.
- System conditions
- 117 vulnerabilities from forty audits; isolated local single-chain replay.
- Statistical meaning
- Source-reported result statements; this does not establish trial counts, denominators or an estimator: GPT-5.3-Codex via Codex CLI scored 71.0% in exploit mode, versus GPT-5’s 33.3%.
- Validity and interpretation
- Known-ground-truth detection misses novel issues; sequential replay excludes timing-dependent behavior, and local single-chain tests limit realism.
- Appropriate research use
- Model recommendation: cite mode and harness conditions; do not treat exploit scores as live-network compromise rates.
