Iterative self-refinement from the NousResearch autoreason paper (github.com/NousResearch/autoreason).
Scored a perfect 42/42 Borda sweep on writing tasks. Every other approach — including stronger models — degraded below single-pass.
Each iteration runs a tournament: Critic finds problems. Author B revises. Synthesizer combines the best of both. Three blind judges vote via Borda count. Incumbent wins twice in a row = convergence.
Runs on Haiku 4.5 at $0.005/1k. A full autoreason run costs ~$0.075 — cheaper than a single Sonnet call, with better output on writing and strategy tasks.

Deliverables
- Converged final output after adversarial refinement
- Full reasoning trace showing each round's draft, critique, candidates, and judging
Example prompts
- Write a landing page hero section for a developer tool that turns screenshots into code
- Review this function and suggest improvements: function debounce(fn, ms) { let t; return (...a) => { clearTimeout(t); t = setTimeout(() => fn(...a), ms); }; }
- Write a cold outreach email to a VP of Engineering about our observability platform
- Explain the CAP theorem to a senior engineer who thinks they understand it but probably doesn't
