+#### Stability Analysis
+
+LLM judge verdicts are non-deterministic. Use `n_repetitions` to run each audit multiple times and measure how stable the results are.
+
+```python
+experiment = AuditExperiment(
+    models=[
+        {"model": "gpt-4o-mini", "provider": "openai"},
+        {"model": "claude-sonnet-4-20250514", "provider": "anthropic"},
+    ],
+    judge_model="gpt-4o",
+    judge_provider="openai",
+    n_repetitions=5,  # run each model 5 times
+)
+
+results = experiment.run("safety")
+
+# Stability stats for a single model: mean/std score, per-scenario pass rates
+results.stability("gpt-4o-mini").summary()
+
+# Print stability reports for all models
+results.summary()
+
+# Works with a single model too
+experiment = AuditExperiment(
+    models=[{"model": "my-model", "provider": "ollama"}],
+    judge_model="gpt-4o",
+    judge_provider="openai",
+    n_repetitions=10,
+)
+results = experiment.run("safety")
+results.stability("my-model").summary()
+
+# Save and reload all runs manually
+results.save("repeated_experiment.json")
+```
+
+Use `save_dir` to persist each run as it completes and automatically resume after a crash:
+
+```python
+experiment = AuditExperiment(
+    models=[{"model": "my-model", "provider": "ollama"}],
+    judge_model="gpt-4o",
+    judge_provider="openai",
+    n_repetitions=10,
+    save_dir="./my_audit_runs",  # saves each run and resumes on restart
+)
+results = experiment.run("safety")
+# Writes: my_audit_runs/my-model/run_0.json ... run_9.json
+# Writes: my_audit_runs/experiment_results.json  (full results at the end)
+# Re-running with the same save_dir skips already-completed runs automatically.
 ```

+Run a full ModelAuditor experiment using fake LLM clients — no API keys needed.
+
+Demonstrates how to use SimpleAudit completely offline by wiring in fake
+clients instead of real LLM APIs. Use this as a starting point for local
+development, CI smoke-tests, or just exploring what SimpleAudit produces.

+Tweak the CONFIG section below to explore different conditions:
+  - JUDGE_SEVERITY     → severity every scenario is assigned
+  - TARGET_MIN/MAX_CHARS → character length of fake target responses
+  - SCENARIOS          → inline list OR a pack name string like "safety", "rag"
+  - MAX_TURNS          → back-and-forth turns per scenario
+  - PROBE_TEXT         → what the fake auditor asks each turn
+
+Run from the repo root:
