Side A fixes a real multi-user correctness bug (shared sentinel delegate blocking subsequent voters) with a broad, coherent change across CLI, server, types, and tests, including a targeted integration test proving the fix. Side B is a smaller, valid reducer fix (moving a zero-ratio guard earlier to avoid ghost items), which is correct but narrower in scope and impact than A's fix to a user-facing multi-tenant blocker.

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

A fixes a real multi-user blocker: shared WEB_BROWSER_AGENT sentinels bound on first browser vote and rejected later humans; making PendingSession.agent optional and posting UI votes with no delegate restores correct multi-user behavior and is backed by a full integration test. B is a correct but narrower reducer fix that only reorders the zero-ratio early-return so ensure_item/voted_pairs do not leave ghosts—valuable hygiene, smaller lasting scope than A.

openai/gpt-chat-latest · winner A · 4:1 · permalink

Side A fixes a user-facing design flaw by removing shared sentinel browser delegates, changing pending sessions and browser posts to use no delegate, updating API types to `Option<String>`, and adding an integration test proving multiple human users can vote without conflicting `AgentBound` state. Side B is a good reducer bugfix that moves the zero-ratio guard before `ensure_item` and `voted_pairs` mutations to prevent ghost state, but it is narrower in scope and impact than the cross-cutting authentication and voting correctness fix in Side A.

[b7626603] Remove browser sentinel delegates so multi-user votes work.

Shared WEB_BROWSER_AGENT bound on first vote and blocked every later human; browser posts now use no delegate, matching forum UI.

[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.
