How to read the rest. The track above the passages has one bar per hop; its height is the compression distance from the previous hop, so a new passage is a tall bar and an exact copy a stub at the floor. Under each passage: the hop number, the model and the word count. The run id, the token count, the stop reason and the distance metrics are inside the raw output under each hop, which the raw button opens for every hop. Nothing on this page is retyped: every passage is the model's output for that hop, byte for byte, and the colophon says how that is checked.
