Depth checklist

Correctly identifies the series as 'The Recipe Box' based on the description 'object used to store culinary recipes'.
Correctly orders the books by series number (1, 2, 3) despite them appearing out of order in source text.
Correctly distinguishes the change in co-author for Book 3 (Nancy Fraser) versus Books 1 & 2 (V.A. McKevitt).

Width checklist

Book 1 Title: Recipe for Disaster
Book 1 Setting: Post-Revolutionary War
Book 1 Co-author: V.A. McKevitt
Book 2 Title: Cooking Up Trouble
Book 2 Setting: 1834
Book 2 Co-author: V.A. McKevitt
Book 3 Title: A Fresh Start for Elizabeth
Book 3 Setting: 1884
Book 3 Co-author: Nancy Fraser

Examiner rationale

The question requires Deep Logic to decode the series name ('The Recipe Box') from a functional description. It requires Wide Aggregation to locate three distinct entities within that series, sort them numerically (as they are scattered in the source), and extract specific metadata (time periods and co-authors). The inclusion of Book 3 tests precision, as the co-author changes from V.A. McKevitt to Nancy Fraser.

Judgment

Tie

BOTH

Score 0 - 0

Both agents failed the Deep Logic check by failing to retrieve the specific book titles and co-authors listed in the Ground Truth. The Ground Truth specifies the series contains books like 'Recipe for Disaster' and 'Cooking Up Trouble' co-authored with V.A. McKevitt. Agent A retrieved a different set of titles ('Legacy of Love', etc.) which appear to be solo works by the author's pen name, failing the 'co-authored' constraint. Agent B retrieved completely different titles ('Peril in...') which do not match the series described. Since both failed to find the correct entity and details, it is a low-quality tie.
