105 planted bugs: Astra ties GPT-6.1 Sol at a fraction of the cost
The author planted 105 bugs across two repos to test bug fixing: Astra scored 45 for $33, while GPT-6.1 Sol scored 44 for just $6.56.

So I tested GPT-6.1 Sol on real work: 2 repos, 105 planted bugs. Find and fix what you can. Unlike GPT-6 Sol, which was just a nerfed GPT-5.6 Terra, this one is real. The results: - GPT-6 Astra (max): 45 for $33 - GPT-6.1 Sol (max): 44 for $6.56 - GPT-5.6 Sol (max): 43.5 for $95.35 - Opus 5.5 (max): 41.7 for $58.53 - GPT-6 Sol (max): 29.3 for $9.33 With a model like this, the 50% cut to the $200 plan doesn't matter. n=1.
