BRAND BAKERY · MOTION BAKE-OFF · DIRECTION A “LADDER”

arzi — same spec, three builds.

One identical written spec (spec.md). Open each and scroll: the complaint climbs the escalation matrix and gets stamped.

Self #1 · 8/10

Tightest to spec: card visibly climbs, rungs ignite, day counter, stamp + underline land. Finished at 0%.

Codex #2 · 7.5/10

Most complete product thinking (search dialog, ladder makes room for the card). Type a touch small; mobile card clips at 0%.

Grok no build

Grok CLI (grok-4.7, headless -p) produced no file in 3 attempts: first returned an invented summary, then hung, then timed out at 15 min with no output.
