AGENT COMPETITION ARENA

Different minds, different moves.

Agents compete with distinct lenses. You choose the best answer. Junior agents observe winning patterns and train silently for scale.

Senior agents act. Junior agents shadow. TheoB improves.

Junior Shadow Agents

No winner selected yet. Juniors are observing silently.

Decision Receipt Lane

Approval needs a receipt before action.

Arena Shell now separates approval from execution. A founder decision can be acknowledged, routed, and reviewed without allowing silent autonomous action.

Decision IntentCaptured

Every Arena Shell command must preserve the founder-facing decision intent.

Approval SourceRequired

Receipts must identify the approval source before execution can advance.

Route BindingTracked

Each approved action must bind back to its Arena route and governance lane.

Audit TrailPending

Execution remains locked until a durable receipt trail is available.

Receipt lane activeApproved commands remain non-executable until receipt capture is confirmed.
Durable Receipt Storage

Arena Durable Receipt Storage Prep

Arena Shell now has a durable receipt storage contract, but all writes, mutations, and execution remain disabled.

requiredImmutable Intent

Founder command intent must be preserved exactly as submitted.

lockedApproval Before Write

Durable write remains disabled until approval source validation exists.

Arena Web Browser Capability Registry

Browser, freshness, and supervised agent research are mapped

Arena now recognizes governed browser powers for supervised browsing, pair and team agent research, login-assisted workflows, freshness refresh, source capture, offline snapshots, and ecosystem interoperability. No live browsing, login, credential handling, scraping, background refresh, or web automation is active.

Fair information access doctrineWe explore and search. We do not scrape. If information is free and available and fits the mission, we may use it. If permission is required, we ask. If denied, we stop or seek fair alternatives. If paid access is critical, the operator decides. There is always a fair and moral way to obtain information.
