BenchLM mirrors the public Vals AI AIME leaderboard as display-only external evidence. The captured snapshot preserves overall scores, task-level scores where Vals publishes them, uncertainty, latency, and cost-per-test metadata. It is excluded from BenchLM weighted rankings.

AIME is currently displayed on BenchLM for reference, but it is excluded from the weighted scoring formula.
