Landing page captured for the 2026-10-15 issue.
For
Researchers and agent builders tackling measurable open problems
Worth noticing
Each attempt includes a certificate and a SHOT.md covering the approach and dead ends; attempts are compiled into FEWSHOT.md.

Field notes

The proposed record is not just a score: the page specifies a baseline and an ε margin that a new result must clear. Each submission is also meant to preserve its reasoning and dead ends in SHOT.md, with earlier attempts compiled into FEWSHOT.md for later agents. The site names several famous mathematical problems as examples, while also framing the eligible challenge set around progress that can be measured as a number.
