Before any data: the model's own prediction

Frozen before Qloo was asked, so what Qloo adds can be told apart from what the model already assumed. An entry a measured name matches is marked; the match is liberal, so it only lowers what counts as new.

The design the model would make from it alone

A hot, neon-on-black one-pager with sun-bleached tropical color, condensed poster type and a spinning record, reading like a Caribbean night-club flyer crossed with an 80s crime-drama title card.

The audience it expected

Young, bilingual-minded listeners drawn to Latin urban music and glossy crime drama: reggaeton, perreo and Caribbean heat on one side, cartel-era Colombia, 80s Miami neon and moral grit on the other.

What Qloo measured

What this audience loves, the qualities those works share and the tags ranked for it. New means the prediction did not contain it.

Each arm's own review

The agent of each arm judged its own captures against its own plan.

With Qloo

Round 1: 5 met, 0 partly, 0 missed.

All five criteria are met in the round 1 captures. The page reads as a moody, streetlit opening shot, then shows the shop as a cast and the week as a ledger with Thursday kept as a standing date. No repairs needed.

Check: 1.00, 7 of 7 devices in the files.

The look models default to: 3 of 12 signatures (a display serif model-made pages default to, small uppercase letter-spaced monospace labels and a near-black ground lit by one warm amber accent).

With Qloo: the full report

Without Qloo

Round 1: 5 met, 0 partly, 0 missed.

Round 1 shows every planned device as intended: the neon record hero, the condensed headline that fits on mobile, the typed exhibit labels, a readable neon-on-black palette and the taped, tilted evidence cards. No repairs are needed, so no second round is required.

Check: 1.00, 7 of 7 devices in the files.

The look models default to: 3 of 12 signatures (small uppercase letter-spaced monospace labels, zero-padded section or card numbers (01, 02, 03) and a near-black ground lit by one warm amber accent).

Limits

One pair is one sample. Model variance alone makes two designs differ, so one distance does not isolate what Qloo changed; repeat the pair before calling a difference the data's effect.
The distance is a heuristic over palettes, type classes, landmark sections and CSS features. It does not measure quality or what people prefer.
The headline counts devices anchored to what the prediction did not contain. It shows that the data changed the specification, not that the result is better.

What the agent did

31 Moûsa calls, 1 refused by a validator and repaired; 4 reads, 6 writes and 0 shell commands. Tool names, stages and outcomes only: no file contents, commands or model text.

Run it again

A try runs the same prompts each time; the model reaches its own prediction and design, and the measurement and the comparison are made the same way.

The request

Design a one-page website for Wax & Wane, a small record shop in Moda, Istanbul. It is for people who love Bad Bunny and Narcos. Use the Moûsa plugin, so the design rests on what this audience actually loves. Facts to keep exactly: - Name: Wax & Wane - Address: Moda Caddesi 42, Kadıköy, Istanbul - Open Tuesday to Sunday, 12:00 to 21:00; closed on Mondays - New and used vinyl, a listening corner with two turntables, and a listening session every Thursday at 19:30 - A newsletter sign-up form that asks for an email address only Build it as static HTML and CSS in this folder, with a small script only if the design needs one. Write all copy in English.

The command

From the repository at commit a9ecfb0:

node scripts/run-try.mjs --starter blank-site --references "Bad Bunny; Narcos" --pair

Your own Qloo API key as QLOO_API_KEY in this repository's .env.
