Judge tuning needs to select configurations on one partition of the human-labeled arena and report on another. Battles are assigned by a salted hash of their first user prompt, so repeated prompts never cross partitions and changing run.seed cannot move battles between them.
A tune_judge section on a meta-eval task expands a grid of judge overrides and runs each configuration as its own meta-eval subprocess on the validation split. After each rung, survivors are chosen by the non-dominated sort on judge cost and human agreement from Salinas et al. (ICML 2025). The best configuration per judge model is then scored once on the held-out test split.
tune-judge-* tasks reuse the meta-eval arena definitions and run each trial as the matching meta-eval task, so both share one judgement cache. The custom successive halving and Pareto selection give way to neps (priorband by default, with the base config as prior; hyperband and mo_hyperband), run via AskAndTell with validation battles per model as the fidelity.

Runs the multi-fidelity search. Each NePS trial writes a config for the target meta-eval task and runs it in a subprocess, so the GPU is freed between judges and every trial is a normal meta-eval run that shares its judgement cache.
1 - agreement) and expected judging cost in USD per 1,000 battles, computed from native token counts including cached judgements. NePS's owncostfield stays unset because it measures search budget, not judge cost.ignore_errorsdefaults totrue), since one bad configuration should not stop a long run. Pricing and config errors still abort.--tune_judge.search_only trueand the samerun_dir.tune_judge.price_per_million_tokens, and a cost run stops before evaluating if a searched model has none.
