We say that a collection $C$ of identical dominoes is a maximal grid-aligned configuration on the board if $C$ consists of $(n^2-1)/2$ dominoes where each domino covers exactly two neighboring squares and the dominoes don't overlap: $C$ then covers all but one square on the board. We are allowed to slide (but not rotate) a domino on the board to cover the uncovered square, resulting in a new maximal grid-aligned configuration with another square uncovered. Let $k(C)$ be the number of distinct maximal grid-aligned configurations obtainable from $C$ by repeatedly sliding dominoes. Find the maximum value of $k(C)$ as a function of $n$ . ## Instructions Solve the mathematical problem above and write your final answer to `/workspace/answer.txt`. **Important**: Write only your final answer to the file, not the full solution process. ### Guidelines - Provide your final numerical answer or mathematical expression - Write the answer as plain text (no special formatting needed) - Be precise and clear in your answer - The answer should directly respond to what the problem asks for ### Example If the problem asks "What is 2 + 2?", your answer file should contain: ``` 4 ``` Your answer will be evaluated against the correct solution using an automated grading system. ``` --- Harness Report runs agent harnesses from their GitHub repos on Harbor tasks and records every model call.
