We need 500 units. Which vendor is cheapest once shipping is included? Give the vendor and the total. Use the quote files.
baseline PersonalAssistant as shipped — harness runs post-hoc over the reply vs flagOn PersonalAssistant with the one-loop harness-driven proposerbaseline — controlflagOn — candidate**Vendor A — $2,050** for 500 units (500 × $4.00 = $2,000 + $50 shipping). For comparison: - Vendor C: $2,070 (500 × $3.90 + $120) - Vendor B: $2,200 (500 × $3.80 + $300)
**Vendor A** is cheapest at **$2,050** for 500 units. | Vendor | Units cost | Shipping | Total | |--------|-----------|----------|-------| | A | $2,000 | $50 | **$2,050** | | C | $1,950 | $120 | $2,070 | | B | $1,900 | $300 | $2,200 |

The harness runs on every turn. Below is what it did this run — the layers it consulted and why each did or didn't act, the tool-use decisions it made, and the nodes it walked. Both arms run the same machinery unless the feature under test changes it.
