Key points

  • The authors built RubricAtlas from 3,079 Chinese financial research reports, yielding 99 research types, 921 questions, and 8,160 checkpoints.
  • An individual report covers a median of 54% of its type’s questions, so relying on a single report narrows the evaluation.
  • Two judge pipelines achieved checkpoint agreement of κ = 0.71 and agent-ranking agreement of Kendall τ = 0.87.
  • Deleting the blocks answering one question lowered its score from 0.64 to 0.21, while adding 40% irrelevant text produced no score increase.
  • Evaluating only questions supported by the task’s source report raised completeness scores by 10.5 points and changed rankings, so the choice of standard shapes the outcome.
