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

Side B fixes a real concurrency/correctness bug (a shared sentinel delegate blocking multi-user votes) with a coherent refactor (Option<String> agent), updated tests including a new integration test proving the fix, and cleanup of now-dead sentinel logic across CLI/server/types. Side A also adds real value (HTML sanitization to prevent XSS) but its diff is dominated by a large generated Cargo.lock dependency tree, and the actual logic change is a small, straightforward wrapper function with modest test coverage.

~x-ai/grok-latest · winner B · 2:3 · permalink

B fixes a core multi-user breakage by removing shared browser sentinel delegates (WEB_BROWSER_AGENT/INVITE_BROWSER_AGENT) and modeling PendingSession.agent as Option so human votes no longer AgentBind a single fake delegate; it updates auth, UI posts, authorship, types/CLI poll handling, and adds a two-user integration test. A is a real, lasting XSS harden (ammonia at render for body_html with unit tests) but is a narrower sanitize-at-boundary change versus B’s correct data-model and product-path fix.

openai/gpt-chat-latest · winner A · 3:2 · permalink

Side A closes a significant security gap by sanitizing untrusted Reddit `body_html` with `ammonia` before passing it to `maud::PreEscaped`, adds a dedicated sanitizer module, and includes tests verifying scripts and event handlers are stripped while benign markup is preserved. Side B fixes an important browser-auth design bug by removing shared sentinel delegates, switching browser sessions to `None` delegates, and adding strong integration tests for multi-user voting, but its impact is narrower than preventing XSS in rendered content.

message

[bf118bdf] Sanitize Reddit entity body HTML before rendering.

Use ammonia at render time so untrusted selftext_html cannot execute scripts in our origin.
