説明

When neither model nor a bound model_role is available, model-graded scorers silently fall back to the evaluated model — i.e. the model grades itself:

https://github.com/UKGovernmentBEIS/inspect_ai/blob/797362280ba84f79009d22db78c9b9a5ce48979e/src/inspect_ai/scorer/_model.py#L173-L182

get_model(role="grader") falls through to the ambient/active model with no warning when the role isn't bound. Self-grading as a silent default is counterintuitive and not good science: self-grading bias varies by model, and it's easy to run a whole eval without realizing no grader was configured.

Suggestion: emit a warning at score time when the resolution falls through to the evaluated model (e.g. "no 'grader' model role bound; the evaluated model will grade itself"). This needs to be a runtime check rather than a construction-time one, since model roles can be bound later via eval(..., model_roles=...).
