OLSS-II with a one-strategy portfolio against full KLUSS at the 50 ms budget

Registration 2436cdbe-9447-4d1a-90d3-e85b8da1393d (study subgame-solving/opponent-portfolio), run 2026-09-19 on AMD Ryzen AI Max (Strix Halo), 32 threads, 125 GB unified memory, Radeon 8060S via ROCm, Linux 6.18. Server commit e3107a0, research commit 9588223 (registration files as committed; this record added afterwards). Other agents shared the machine during the run; per-seed results are deterministic regardless of load.

Per-seed paired contrast for the olss2 player (score as Red plus score as Blue minus one): mean 0.220, 95% normal interval 0.066 to 0.374 over 100 seeds (44 positive, 34 split, 22 negative). The olss2 player won 76 games as Red and 46 as Blue. Wall time 593 s on 8 threads. Time per move is as played in the arena under load; the calibration bench (single thread, middlegame positions, other jobs sharing the machine) read 48 ms for the olss2 side at 5,000 expansions and 58 ms for kluss at 2,500.

Decision rule

The hypothesis (olss2 with one opponent strategy beats full kluss at 50 ms) is supported: the contrast interval 0.066 to 0.374 lies entirely above zero.
