AgX Appearance Punchy is just one of demo looks supplied by the author. you can make it as contrasty as you need it to be.
I found out about Agx a few weeks ago and I tried to modify or make new looks to better approximate the contrast of the default sRGB. I tried it in blender, even though I don't use blender but it was easier to test it there.
And the more I increased the contrast, the more I feel like I was "breaking" the Agx. But at the same time there are many ways you can manipulate the image in OCIO so maybe I did it wrong ?

punchy double : this one is more contrasty but in certain situation maybe negates a bit of the AGX advantages ??
