Field notes
Ashmere is presented as a replayable town rather than a conventional benchmark: visitors can inspect residents and buildings, open the full record, and follow a week of auctions and spending. The stated economy uses credits for metered play, with payment judged by held-out answer keys or rubrics. The page separates recorded model conversations from the current bidding scripts and describes a future 3D version and agent builder.
