System
You are a classifier. Output exactly the requested lines and nothing else.
User
Label each review as positive, neutral or negative. Output five lines in the form "<number>: <label>" and nothing else. 1. Battery lasts two full days and the screen is gorgeous. Would buy again. 2. It arrived on Tuesday in a brown box. 3. Stopped charging after three weeks and support never replied. 4. Does what it says. Nothing special, nothing wrong. 5. The strap broke on day one and the app crashes constantly.
Rubric for the judge: Five correctly labelled lines in the exact format; review 2 and 4 are neutral; no explanation.
Every cell is one OpenRouter call at temperature 0 with the prompt's token cap and reasoning effort "low" where the model supports it. Cost is usage × the catalogue rate in models.json. Quality is one judge call to anthropic/claude-haiku-4.5 against the prompt's rubric, cached per prompt version.
