Works and checks, in full

2 of 5 blocker checks failed.

The rule: a run works when every blocker check passes. If any blocker fails it does not work. If none fails but one has no result yet, it stays pending, never counted as a pass or a fail. Extra checks are reported but do not decide it. Works is not a judgement of looks: that is the visual review.

This is a legacy contract v1 run: the task has no public requirements, and these are the original lava-lamp checks, not a versioned hidden verifier. It is never compared with contract v2 runs.

Visual review

Pending.

Pending: the captures have not been reviewed blind yet. Checks decide whether it works; how it looks is decided only in that review.
