The prompt

Written to be pasted straight into an agent with no editing. It describes the whole job, including the parts that will go wrong.

Build a server-rendered index site that scores products against a single question, in the style of a compatibility table.

Data: one JSON file per entry in data/entries/, each with slug, name, domain, category, a one-line description, a verdict from a three-value enum, supporting bullet lists, and a long-form text field. Load them at build time and fail the build on a slug/filename mismatch.

Routes: a homepage with live client-side filtering over the full set plus a ranked table; a detail page per entry at /:slug; a category index and per-category pages; a stats page. Static-generate everything.

UI: verdict badges colour-coded by enum value, favicon-per-row pulled from the entry domain, a sticky filter bar, and a copy-to-clipboard control on the long-form field.

SEO: question-shaped titles, canonical URLs, JSON-LD for ItemList and BreadcrumbList, a generated sitemap, and a per-page share image rendered at build time.

No accounts. No tracking. Contribution happens by pull request, so document the JSON schema in CONTRIBUTING.md.

What copies cleanly

  • The entire product surface. It is a sorted table, a search box, category chips and a detail page.
  • The data model, which they publish: one JSON file per entry, contributed by pull request.
  • The vote counter. An integer, a rate limit, and a column.
  • The generated share images, the sitemap, the structured data. All of it is a build step.
  • The source, in full, because the repository is public and MIT licensed.

Where it stops

  • Nothing technical. This is the point of the entry.
  • The judgement calls. Deciding that a tool is a weekend project rather than a real one is an opinion, and opinions do not come out of the repository.
  • The entries themselves, which are hand-written and accumulate slowly.
  • Being first, which is not available to copy.

What actually protects them

  • Taste, expressed as a verdict column.
  • The contributor habit. Once people file pull requests against your index, the index is theirs too.
  • Name recognition on a domain that is a complete sentence.

Editor's note

We want to be fair, because they have been fair. This site exists because they published a page inviting people to rebuild their site, released the source under MIT, and promised the prompts would stay free. That is a real position, honestly held, and we agree with it. The joke is only that a directory of things AI can replace is itself a thing AI can replace, and they clearly know that, because they wrote the instructions down. Consider this a pull request they cannot merge.
