A free web tool where someone pastes a draft and gets back every case and statute citation in it, each marked as found on CanLII (with a link), not found, or found with a different name or year.

Solved looks like

A Yarn plugin or patch that, at install time, fails with a clear message when a package that had provenance in earlier versions resolves to a version without it. Tested against a local test registry with a downgrade case and a never-had-provenance case.

Solved looks like

A design note and prototype for an opt-in size limit that removes least-recently-used entries after an install, without breaking other uv processes running at the same time. Tested by filling a cache past the limit and checking it ends under the limit while recent packages still install offline.

Solved looks like

A firmware setting for up to three privacy zones (centre and radius). Inside a zone, the position sent is rounded to the zone's precision; outside, the normal setting applies. Checked on a bench node with simulated GPS that the exact home position is never transmitted.

Solved looks like

Each remaining ecosystem gets a PURL converter with tests using the type in the PURL spec, or is listed as having no PURL equivalent, and a test fails whenever a new ecosystem is added without either.

Solved looks like

A small web service and form: given a Transitous trip id, it works out which feed the trip came from, returns the right contact (or says none is known) and a prefilled report. Tested on 20 trips from different feeds.

Solved looks like

A pull request that fills each argument's description in the tool schema from Google, NumPy or Sphinx style docstrings, leaves the schema unchanged when there is no docstring, and has tests for each style.

Solved looks like

A small, documented setup (script or container image) that gives an agent a shell and a PostgreSQL connection where reads run without prompts and every write is refused by account permissions, not by text matching. Checkable with a test list of 30 commands and queries (15 reads, 15 writes, including tricky ones like find -delete or SELECT ... INTO) where every write fails and every read works.
