Benchmark for tracking model capability after release.
What livenerf is
livenerf is a small, boring, append-only benchmark for one question: does a model get worse after it ships? For months there have been reports that Anthropic "nerfs" models some days or weeks after release. That could mean quantization, a smaller model behind the same name, lower effort, or routing changes. It could also mean nothing happened and people are pattern-matching on noise. Nobody has had a clean day-0 baseline to check against, so every argument ends up as vibes versus vibes.
