- checkAnswer now returns highest score across all accepted answers instead of first match, fixing 95 false-low-confidence results - Skip string containment for purely numeric strings to prevent false positives like "1000" matching inside "10000" - Preserve decimal points in normalize() (42.0 no longer becomes 420) - Use word-boundary regex for number matching in responses - Fix 47 wrong choices scoring too high (comma-formatted numbers, verbose choices matching terse answers) - Fix 17 prompts where no choice matched any accepted answer - Challenge audit now reports zero failures across all 1472 prompts Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
