Benchmark methodology

The ParseBench score is an end-to-end pipeline measurement — this model served via vLLM plus deterministic rule-based post-processing of model output — consistent with how all ParseBench providers are evaluated (every provider is a submitter-hosted endpoint). No other learned models, classifiers, or ensembles are involved: single model, single pass.
