Highlights
- Connect Four offers at most seven legal columns plus three side judgments on the same state.
- Battleship turns the grid into text and asks one Choice over up to 64 open cells, drawn as a probability heat map.
- Wordle offers up to 60 candidates annotated with average words left, and never sees your guesses.
- Each turn shows milliseconds, confidence, and token counts, and illegal moves are withheld by the rules.

Questions about this entry
Short answers drawn from the linked project or page.
No, and that is the point of the design. Candidates are narrowed to what is still legal and annotated with how many words remain on average, but your past guesses are never part of the state sent. That makes it a fair test of the ranking rather than a lookup of your own feedback.
The grid is turned into text and one Choice question spans every open cell, up to 64 of them, with the result drawn as a probability heat map. The model commits to a distribution over cells instead of a single shot, so you can see where it is uncertain rather than only where it committed.
The interface shows milliseconds, a confidence value, and token counts on every move, which is more than most demos publish. There is no price breakdown and no running total, and the page names no author or repository, so per-turn cost is visible but what a full session adds up to is not.
The rules do the enforcing, since illegal moves are withheld before the model ever sees them. What Jev chooses is among at most seven legal columns, plus three side judgments asked against the same state. Connect Four is a solved game, so read it as a latency demonstration rather than evidence of strength.
The page names it among the four but documents a move menu for none of them. Only Connect Four, Battleship and Wordle have published menus: at most seven legal columns plus three side judgments, one Choice across up to 64 open cells, and up to 60 annotated candidates. Tic-tac-toe is solved like Connect Four, so read the slot as a demonstration.
Most of it. The code builds the candidate set: at most seven legal columns in Connect Four, up to 60 annotated candidates in Wordle, and every open cell in Battleship, up to 64. Illegal moves are removed before the request goes out, so the model only ever picks or ranks inside a menu the game itself constructed.
Neither is published. The page names no author and no repository, and the entry's details were read from the compiled app rather than a source tree, so the model, the endpoint and the prompt behind the per-turn confidence and token counters are all unstated. There is no documented way to redirect the calls.
