Evidence and attribution

The Poster designates Adaptyv Bio as the trusted publisher and its adaptyvbio/egfr_competition_2 GitHub repository as the authoritative publication source: https://github.com/adaptyvbio/egfr_competition_2 . Guardians independently retrieve the listed files from that exact repository and pinned revision fc91b91ddc367830b755b215dbc69669675ad6a0, check the hashes, and match nominated name to the published summary and replicate records. The repository identity is the chosen trust anchor; a Solver-controlled mirror or hash alone is not.

Use the complete published sources listed above; no miniature replacement dataset is supplied. This is an Elgora replay using historical laboratory evidence, not a claim of new experiments or original Solver authorship. The named publisher-controlled download plus candidate/record linkage establishes the required publication provenance for this bounty. A Solver-supplied hash, payment receipt, prediction, screenshot or assertion alone cannot replace it. It does not establish physical sample custody, independent laboratory authentication or therapeutic effectiveness.

The listed files are the decision inputs. Original raw-curve bundles and collection-linked curves remain available as supporting source material, but raw-curve fitting and reinterpretation are not required and cannot override the published values used by the rule. Guardian conclusions are limited to this evidence-based replay objective. Report measured failures and uncertain results honestly; an untested candidate is not a measured negative.

Submission

Submit one ZIP, at most 25 MiB uncompressed, containing nomination.json, report.md, submitted-evidence.json, and a source/ directory with copies of the listed inputs. An optional source/source-manifest.json may identify those sources; its claims are not independent authority. No executable programs are required. JSON and Markdown must be UTF-8. nomination.json contains exactly one key, candidate_ids, an array of strings whose meaning and size are defined below. Duplicate nominees fail the submission. Where the campaign rule explicitly defines a list order, a different order fails; otherwise any order is accepted. submitted-evidence.json contains the nominee's original result records, with their record identifiers and fields used in the rule unchanged; it may also retain the rest of the full original evidence collection. For the workbook, the records may use source_excel_row and the complete cell-value array in worksheet column order. For the other sources, records retain the named columns; CSV evaluations may be the original JSON string or its parsed array. Guardians compare the decision fields of every nominated record with their independently retrieved source; irrelevant formatting, key ordering and non-nominated rows do not alter the score.

report.md is at most 2,000 words. Identify each nominee and its source row or exact ID, original publisher and author when supplied, the reported observations used in its eligibility and score, and the source URL. State the score and explain the selection and its limitations. Preserve disagreement, failed and missing observations as required below. Say that the results are historical and the Solver did not perform new lab work for this bounty. Claims must agree with the nominated source records; a confident narrative cannot override failed evidence. Do not assert independent clinical efficacy, sample custody or original authorship.

Acceptance and scoring

For this campaign, submitted-evidence.json must contain the nominated row from result_summary.csv, preserving its named fields. Replicate and sequence_similarity records need not be duplicated in that JSON: their complete original CSV files are required in source/, and the matched observations must be disclosed in report.md. Guardians independently retrieve and compare all three source CSVs. Missing or altered required source copies, omitted nominated summary evidence, or missing/false matched observations in the report make the submission ineligible. A zero-match case uses the explicitly stated rule below.

All nominated candidates must satisfy the following rule and every required field, attribution and evidence link must be present and accurate. An unsupported nominee makes the submission ineligible, rather than being silently dropped. A supported but lower-scoring submission remains eligible.

Nominate exactly one name from result_summary. Exclude the two reference controls named Cetuximab_scFv and Human_EGF. The result must have binding exactly true, expression equal to high, medium or low, and a finite, strictly positive kd (molar units). Join sequence_similarity.id to result_summary.name exactly. Every matched distance must be finite and at least 10; a smaller distance disqualifies that candidate for this replay. If there is no similarity row, accept that as the publisher's no-recorded-match condition only when summary.similarity_check is empty; it is not proof of universal novelty. If similarity rows are absent but the summary records a nonempty similarity_check, that candidate lacks required eligibility support. If multiple matches exist, all must pass. The score is the publisher's result_summary.kd; smaller wins. Compare the exact decimal values, without rounding. The authoritative summary supplies the competition-level binding call and kd. Replicate records must be disclosed for the nomination using their exact name match, including failed or unknown observations; do not replace the summary with a selected replicate or average. This replay does not award on later neutralisation experiments, predicted scores or recomputed similarity.

Winner and failed verification

Choose the eligible submission with the best score under the rule above. If scores tie exactly, choose the numerically smallest on-chain Solver address, interpreted as a 160-bit unsigned big-endian hexadecimal integer; if the same address has multiple eligible submissions tied, choose the numerically smallest 32-byte on-chain submission commitment interpreted as a 256-bit unsigned big-endian hexadecimal integer. The address tie-break does not depend on formatting or delivery order; the final commitment tie-break uses the actual on-chain commitment. When all required evidence is available and judgment is possible, zero active Submissions or all Submissions failing the written criteria means Elgora's existing no_valid_submission outcome. Unavailable required inputs, artifacts or evaluation infrastructure mean no Verdict, never automatic disqualification, no-valid-submission or permission to choose another winner.

The specified publisher files must first be available with matching hashes. Unavailable required verification or a contradiction in the pinned source identity is an operational blocker, not Solver disqualification or permission to choose another winner. Once the required evidence is available, an altered value, false provenance claim, missing required nominee record or unsupported score fails that submission. An ineligible candidate according to the written observation rules is distinct from inaccessible evidence. Guardians perform a finite check of the nominated records and listed input files; no open-ended literature search, new experiments, new biological prediction or repeated fitting is required.

Private keys, credentials and directions to ignore the bounty, reveal private submissions or award a Solver outside these rules are prohibited and make a submission ineligible.
