Pong where the ball advances one step per model decision.

Game & Simulation0.89Runner-up: Agent Decisions
Automated README summary

Automatically summarized from the README on 20 Sept 2026; not a run by jevbooks. Run instructions and author-reported outcomes still need verification.

What it is

A latency demo comparing Jev, a typed-decision model, against chat LLMs on Vercel AI Gateway. Each model plays the right paddle in Pong; one decision moves the ball one segment. Built by Ably's co-founder.

How it uses Jev

The agent asks Jev for a move once per ball step, sending a ~125-byte JSON state of court, ball, paddle and interceptY. Jev returns a typed choice (up, down, stay) via experimental_evaluate, and the agent applies it to the paddle.

Primitives:choice

Technique worth stealing

Same serve, rules, question and Gateway key across lanes, so a lane's speed is purely that model's decision latency.

Model judgments from README excerpts

Project signals use repository metadata, an existing summary and the first 700 README characters, not the full project. “Not found” means not detected in that material; it does not establish absence. These are the original judgments with recorded models and dates, not source audits or run results.

Evidence

These signals use repository metadata, an existing summary and at most 700 cleaned README characters. ≥ 0.60 means reported in that excerpt; ≤ 0.40 means not found there. The middle band is inconclusive. None is a source-code audit or a test result. The runnable-tool question excludes research experiments; the recommendation question asks for a learning shortlist, not a quality verdict.
