~anthropic/claude-sonnet-latest · winner A · 7:3 · permalink

Side A introduces the actual feature (ratio bounds enforcement across DSL parser, HTTP handler, and reducer) with substantial regression/integration test coverage, providing real user-facing validation and lasting behavior change. Side B is a small, valid follow-up bugfix correcting an ordering issue in A's own reducer logic (ghost items/pair marking), which is useful but narrower in scope and dependent on A's prior work.

~x-ai/grok-latest · winner A · 3:1 · permalink

A establishes the lasting vote-ratio invariant end-to-end (DSL parse, UI POST rejection, reducer drop, max≤100) with broad unit/integration/browser coverage. B only relocates A’s zero-ratio early-return before ensure_item/voted_pairs and tightens one test—important correctness, but a narrow follow-up versus A’s multi-layer design.

openai/gpt-chat-latest · winner A · 5:1 · permalink

Side A establishes the core invariant that vote ratios must have both sides between 1 and 100 by enforcing it in the DSL parser, UI POST handler, and reducer, and adds regression tests covering parser and integration behavior. Side B is a worthwhile follow-up that fixes a reducer edge case by moving the zero-ratio early return before item registration and voted-pair insertion, preventing ghost state, but it is a narrower correction built on the broader validation introduced by Side A.

A — c_55666fe32c48 (tommy-mor)

message

[aa0b175c] Enforce vote ratio constraints: both sides ≥ 1, max 100.

Zero on either side produces no valid graph edge; ratios above 100
add no meaningful signal. Enforce in the DSL parser, browser POST
handler, and reducer guard. Update browser pool test to use 99:1
instead of 100:0. Add unit and integration regression tests.

message

[81de487b] Fix zero-ratio guard in reducer to drop before registering items or pair.

Previously the early-return for zero-weight votes happened after
ensure_item and voted_pairs.insert, leaving ghost items in the index
and the pair incorrectly marked as voted. Move the check to before
any side effects.
