One method. #### GlimmerTown Game · three lines of development An original isometric pixel-art city. One HTML file, no dependencies, works offline. 2026-07-12 → 2026-09-30 1,392 commits · PASS=12,513 1 ◆ = 1 PASS [Read the case](https://lijiabao.dev/en/glimmertown/) #### Frontier Lab Research governance · 16 repos One governance repo, 15 discipline labs, 150 problem cards. 2026-09-27 → 2026-09-29 150 problem cards · default budget $0 per round 1 ○ = 1 problem card [Read the case](https://lijiabao.dev/en/frontier/) ### Method > "Just build it — like the lab line: first it looked good, then it grew its own standard." [— the owner, GlimmerTown3D-lab `docs/D000-vision.md`, 2026-09-25](https://github.com/lijiabao1998/GlimmerTown3D-lab/blob/main/docs/D000-vision.md) #### One round of work 1. Measure 2. write the card: acceptance criteria before the work 3. build 4. write the guards 5. green, and the owner's nod, before merge Seven model writers from different vendors work on the lab line. Two can push to main; the other five each work on a branch and open PRs. Nothing merges without the owner's nod. > What didn't get done may not be left blank, and may not be dressed up. [— GlimmerTown-lab `AUTORUN.md`](https://github.com/lijiabao1998/GlimmerTown-lab/blob/main/AUTORUN.md) ### Is not Compiling is not correctness, a high benchmark score is not general ability, and two models agreeing is not independent verification. [— FrontierComputerScience README](https://github.com/lijiabao1998/FrontierComputerScience/blob/main/README.md) > Passing code, model consensus, the owner's approval: none of them makes a scientific claim true.

Under the right rules, any model can help build a city or do research, and anyone can rerun every result. #### What the work itself says 1. "No agent is exempt from verification because of its brand." — Frontier `AGENTS.md` 2. "Two models agreeing is not an independent experiment." — Frontier `AGENTS.md` 3. Tooling is the Python standard library only; the default budget per round is $0. — FrontierLab-Governance 4. The game is one HTML file: no dependencies, works offline, plays on a phone. — GlimmerTown README 5. Acceptance criteria come before the work; merges happen only when the guards are green. — GlimmerTown-lab `AUTORUN.md` #### This site does the same - Glimmer by default: every device gets the same content first. - Every tier draws all 1,946 commits. What changes is the animation, not the record. - Turn JavaScript off and you can still read every word. - Chinese and English, the same content. - Every number has a source and a date. No trackers, no cookies. #### Three tiers, one record ##### Full - Every record, a 12,288-point portrait, scroll animation, smooth scrolling. Turns on by itself only when your device keeps up. Cap 200 KB (enforced in CI) ##### Glimmer - The default. Every record; a 4,096-point portrait. Cap 200 KB (enforced in CI) ##### Static - No WebGL and no animation library. Every record drawn as a still image; exactly the same words. Cap 110 KB (enforced in CI) ### About (Portrait: A portrait, not data.) Portrait: 6,144 points of light, set on baselines. The light here is not data. An abstract portrait of Li Jiabao in points of light set on horizontal baselines. This image is not data. The owner. Sets the direction, makes the final call, dates the decision. GitHub lijiabao1998 · 19 public repos · account created 2026-09-23 The work is older: GlimmerTown's first main-line commit is from 2026-07-12. - 心存善念，盡力而為 Keep good intentions; do your best. - 但行好事，勿問前程 Do good; don't ask where it leads. לראות את הבלתי יאומן, לעשות את הבלתי אפשרי To see the unbelievable, to do the impossible. #### Two art rules this site follows 1. Light comes from the left. 2. No light without a lamp. So light here sweeps in from the left, and every point of light maps to a record, or is labelled schematic or portrait. Now — I define it. ### Contact Code, task cards and failure records all live on GitHub. [GitHub · lijiabao1998](https://github.com/lijiabao1998)
