council reasoning

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

Side B fixes a concrete correctness/security bug (feed catch-up using ingest position instead of timestamp, preventing missed posts on clock rollback and leaked private-room content after permission changes) and backs it with thorough multi-user integration tests. Side A is a solid internal-tooling refactor (per-commit vs per-author ranking with rollup) but addresses a fairness/design limitation rather than a user-facing correctness bug, making B's impact more concrete and durable.

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

B fixes real feed correctness and privacy failures by anchoring catch-up to durable ingest index (not colliding/backwards timestamps), centralizing logic in rpc_feed, and adding multi-user private-room/revoke regression tests plus a room field on posts. A is a solid redesign—pairwise-rank each commit and roll scores up, with matching UI/evidence/tests—but it is mostly an internal ranking granularity change rather than closing missed-update and leak bugs.

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

Side B fixes substantive feed correctness by introducing durable ingest-order anchoring instead of timestamp-only cutoffs, preserving permission checks, adding room metadata to feed responses, and covering multi-user/private-room edge cases with comprehensive integration tests. Side A mainly refactors ranking from contributor-level to commit-level with UI/evidence updates and tests, which is a meaningful feature but less fundamental than correcting feed consistency and visibility bugs.

message

[c7ef287e] Rank every eligible commit with the LLM council.

Stop short-circuiting on a single contributor; pairwise-sort commits, roll scores up for emission payouts, and surface commit rankings on epoch pages.
