Per-table card variant
Per-table card variant · Experimental

Micro card (≤1K tokens)

Smallest viable card: caption + inline Markdown table + 6-line YAML. Targets the 4K-context open-model tier.

In one paragraph

Stripped to absolute minimum: caption + PDF page + the Markdown table inline + a 6-line YAML frontmatter (variant tag, table number, source SHA, faithfulness level). Roughly 1 KB / 250 tokens per card. Designed for open models with strict 4K context windows.

Caveats and known limitations

Scope · 05
  • Strips all surrounding context — questions requiring methodology (e.g. interpolation) lose the explanatory paragraphs.
  • Markdown table format performs worse than CSV on this benchmark; csv-only is the preferred compact format.
