6 tasks. July 6, 2026 closed at 8.3x weighted leverage across 72.0 human-equivalent hours in 520 minutes of wall-clock time. Supervisory leverage came in at 86.4x.
That is 1.8 weeks of human-equivalent throughput in 8.7 hours. The ceiling was 10.1x; the floor was 3.4x. 6 of the 6 entries came from a single project.

Analysis
The highest factor of the day came in at 10.1x and the lowest at 3.4x, a spread of 2.9 times between the two. That is a narrow range, which tends to happen when a day stays inside one kind of work.
The largest single entry accounted for 16.0 of the 72.0 human-equivalent hours, or 22 percent of the day. No single task dominated the total, so the weighted average is representative.
Supervisory time was 50 minutes against 520 minutes of execution, a ratio of about 1 to 10. Supervisory leverage of 86.4x is the figure I find most honest, because it measures the hours I actually spent rather than the hours a machine spent on my behalf.
Every figure here is recorded at the time the work is done rather than reconstructed afterwards. The human estimate is my own judgement and carries the uncertainty that implies; the minutes and tokens are measured. The full dataset, including this day, is available for download.
