How Context.dev’s scores are calculated

The full audit trail, recomputed from the verdict data at build time through the same code that produced the leaderboard: verdict × quality × story weight per cell, cells sum to dimension scores, dimensions blend into the PA Score. Every number on the product page is reproducible from this page alone; for why the formula looks like this, see the methodology.

verdict factors: full ×1.0 · partial ×0.6 · disputed ×0.3 · none ×0.0 · n/a excluded from both sides · cell points = weight × quality × factor · cell max = weight × 10

PA Score35/100

Agent-ready 62.3 × 0.30 = 18.69

API quality 25.2 × 0.20 = 5.04

Openness 23.2 × 0.20 = 4.64

Built-in AI 13.1 × 0.15 = 1.96

Automation 31.7 × 0.15 = 4.75

(18.69 + 5.04 + 4.64 + 1.96 + 4.75) ÷ (0.30 + 0.20 + 0.20 + 0.15 + 0.15) = 35.09 ÷ 1.00 = 35.1

Scores are stored to 1 decimal; the product page’s pills round to whole numbers for display. Each dimension below shows the stories, verdicts, and cited evidence behind its number.
