~anthropic/claude-sonnet-latest · winner B · 6:4 · permalink

Side B fixes a real production bug (public Reddit API blocking cloud IPs) with a robust retry-on-401/403 mechanism, error surfacing via truncated messages, and a deployment config fix, all backed by a targeted unit test. Side A is a large refactor adding a new vote-compare feature and pair-selection logic, which is substantial but more speculative UI/UX work with less proven necessity and higher risk of churn compared to B's focused, correctness-driven fix.

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

A lands core product machinery: bridge-aware pair selection in pair.rs, the full /vote compare UI and in-place morph path (vote_recorded_morph, vote_compare flag), plus ItemId::from_storage normalization with tests—lasting design for ranking. B is a precise, necessary production fix (force OAuth when creds exist, AuthRejected + refresh on 401/403, fly.toml base URL) but narrower in scope than the vote/pair subsystem.

openai/gpt-chat-latest · winner A · 5:2 · permalink

Side A delivers substantial new functionality and infrastructure: it adds a dedicated pairwise voting page, pair-selection logic that prioritizes bridging disconnected ranking components, in-place UI morphing after votes, ID normalization via `ItemId::from_storage`, and accompanying integration/tests. Side B fixes an important operational issue by requiring OAuth when configured, refreshing tokens after 401/403 responses, and improving error handling, but it is a narrower reliability improvement compared with the broader, lasting feature and architectural additions in Side A.

[8f69c309] Require Reddit OAuth when credentials are set and refresh on 401/403.

Avoid falling back to the public www.reddit.com API from cloud IPs, which
returns Reddit's network-security block page. Also pin SORTER2_BASE_URL in fly.toml.
