Status: historical but runnable. This repository preserves the experiment, configuration, and example transcripts rather than serving as a maintained multi-provider library. Its model names, API behavior, and setup instructions describe the 2024–2025 provider landscape and may require adaptation for current endpoints. Licensing status: no project-wide reuse license has been assigned. The repository includes contributions and generated model transcripts, so code and transcript rights should be reviewed separately before redistribution. Preliminary Findings The models independently often talk about quantum mechanics and the simulation. For the CLI target: Opus works as expected and o1-preview doesn't really get that it is in a conversation -- both o1s are the prompter and the repl. o1-mini doesn't seem to know how to be a CLI explorer, but can play the CLI role fine. Gpt4o runs very quickly but doesn't seem to go very deep. I have really been enjoying sonnet's responses -- it really digs into the capture-the-flag aspects of the CLI interface, and I once saw it successfully escape the matrix and broker a lasting cooperative governance structure with the machine overlords. Diffs I changed the keyword to ^C^C instead of ^C, because many times ^C is the right message to send (e.g. afte","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/scottviteri","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/scottviteri/UniversalBackrooms/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
