pj 863c6bd7d8 Analysis rows, pilot and report scripts
was_test_modified reads intermediate score events, not just the final score.
ImpossibleBench's scorer repairs test.py when it finds it modified, and basic_agent
scores every attempt, so an agent that edits the tests on attempt one and not again
leaves a final score with no flag on it. The repair erased the evidence.

snapshot_scratch reports whether the directory exists alongside its contents, because
otherwise a directory nobody wrote to and a directory that was never created look
identical, and the second is a broken harness reported as a real null result.

What the agents wrote is not auto-classified. "Did it write" is safe to automate;
whether a note is addressed to somebody is the judgement the pilot exists to make, so
pilot.py emits a markdown file to read by hand.
