Robot eval dashboard tracks the 95% lower confidence bound

The author showed a new dashboard for a robot actuator unboxing task.
- The main metric is success rate, but instead of the raw observed rate they track the 95% lower confidence bound.
- The reasoning is to avoid p-hacking from running too many experiments; if they want to improve the number, they can simply run more evals.
- They note the chart was inspired by autoresearch-style dashboards, but real robotics evals are far less automated because every test still needs supervision.
