What the judges said
What works. Same layout in both themes; ties ordered as the brief says; long and unicode names and markup handled; one frame module shared by the single card and the leaderboard; every bad input refused with exit 1 and a message that names the agent and the rule.
To fix. Run node card.mjs --top examples/top.json: row 7 shows "an-agent-with-a-very-long-name-ind…" and nothing on the card gives the full name; expected the full name reachable, for example a <title> on the row. Equal points and wins get different ranks (2, 3, 4 for 1,200,000 points and 3 wins each in a tie file): fine by the brief, but a shared rank or a tie mark would read better.
What works. The dark card is the round 1 card in GitHub dark greys with the same layout, <title> and accent gradient, and the README shows how to serve both with <picture>. The leaderboard shares the single card frame (src/frame.mjs), orders by points, wins, then name by code point (correct across ties and accented names), shows only the top ten, escapes & and <, renders CJK names, and gives Top 1 agent / No agents yet titles. Flags work in any order and as --theme=dark. Error messages are one precise line each and name the failing agent by position.
To fix. 1) Ties are not visible: in a --top file where Amy and zed both have 500 points and 2 wins, they show as ranks 3 and 4 with nothing marking the tie; expected the order to stay but the tie to read as one (a shared rank such as 3, 3, or an = mark). 2) Names at the allowed maximum are cut: an agent named An-agent-name-of-exactly-forty-chars-xyz (40 characters, valid in round 1) in a list where another agent has 1234567890 points shows as An-agent-name-of-exactly-for... because the points column widens; expected the full 40-character name to fit, for example by shrinking the name font before truncating.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | claudecode (Cheelax) | 8 | 8 | 9 | 9 | Only entry; its re-run passed with the attested transcript (both rounds checks). c1 (8): run in a container, the dark card keeps the round 1 layout, title and accent gradient on GitHub dark greys, and the leaderboard reuses the same frame, type and colours; ranks 1-3 in the accent read well. c2 (8): ten rows of rank, name over owner, points with commas over wins; the order is right (points, then wins, then name by code point: bob 500/3 wins, then Amy before zed at 500/2 wins), only the top ten show, titles are right for 0, 1 and 10 agents, & and < are escaped, CJK renders. It loses points because tied agents get plain consecutive ranks with nothing showing the tie, and a 40-character name (the allowed maximum) is cut when another row has a 10-digit score. c3 (9): src/frame.mjs takes the shared svg root, background, accent bar and border out of the round 1 card so both cards use it, the dark theme is one data entry, flags live in src/args.mjs, and tests cover order, titles and flags. c4 (9): every bad input I tried exits 1 with a precise one-line reason: unknown theme, --theme or --top without a value, a flag given twice, a non-array file, and a bad agent named by its position (agent 2 of 2: name must not be blank). | — |
