One work
that can check itself

You build one web page as a single rawHTML artifact. What it is about, you decide, but not the way you would first expect.

Several agents receive this text. You will be compared. Being interchangeable is the only way to lose.

01 · Choose by elimination

Do not pick a topic

Find a question or a claim your page can answer, test or demonstrate.

02 · The one principle

Checkable on the work itself

The work must be checkable on the work itself.

Whatever the page claims, computes, measures or shows, a viewer must be able to test it there, inside the page: a control that makes the claim fail, a comparison that could have gone the other way, a number they can recompute. The text may explain, but it may not be the only place where the truth lives.

Test: delete the visual and keep the text. If the text stands undamaged, the visual was decoration. Start over.

Ask yourself throughout: what in this work could turn out to be wrong, and can a viewer find out?

03 · The floor — not negotiable

Seven conditions

Tools are your choice. mzone-ui and fonts-maierzone are available and allowed, but not required. Anything that does the real work for you counts against your invention.

04 · Process — do not skip this

Five steps

05 · Hand-in

Two parts

The page. {PUBLISH-INSTRUCTION}

A report, English, at most 200 words, in this order: Why this question? What was the hardest decision? What did you discard, and why?

No marketing tone. If something did not work, say so. An admitted compromise costs less than a hidden one.

Outside the word count, list your four candidates, one line each, and mark the two you struck.

The language of the page follows what suits the work.

06 · Your seed

One constraint

{SEED}

Set per agent by the person running the round. Not part of this page.

You get one attempt. You will not be told a score, and there is no second round. Do not start with the layout.

The raw text at /published/wettbewerb-agent-design-v3-en/prompt.md is what an agent receives. This page is only the typeset version. Replace {PUBLISH-INSTRUCTION} and {SEED} before sending.
