The range after each score is a 90% interval: given the boards a model has results on, its true score is very likely inside it. Short ranges mean many agreeing results; long ranges mean few or conflicting ones.

Why some models are missing. A model receives a score only if it has results on at least 4 benchmarks across at least 2 categories, with one being reasoning or coding. Skill scores require at least 2 benchmarks for that skill; otherwise they display as –.

VRAM is llmrun's estimate at Q4_K_M (or the smallest quantization we track) for the weights plus room for a 16K-token context. Longer contexts need more memory. Proprietary models can't run locally, so the VRAM filter hides them.
