Publicity workstreams #3/#4 (per maintainer's 2026-08-16 directive), plus the #6 competition proposal as an internal draft.

  • Trace Autopsy Add support to other harnesses #1 (docs/blog/): why claude-opus-4-6 failed the Uber Eats task — it beat the bot wall, signup, and a two-tab OTP relay, then abandoned mandatory phone verification mid-flow and got the account locked by Uber's anti-fraud. Every quote is verbatim from the public trace (001-daily-life-food-uber-eats-claude-opus-4-6-20260329-110845); includes a ready-to-post X-thread version. Intended as the first of a series.
  • Trace Cookbook (docs/trace-cookbook.md): positions the V1/V2 trace datasets as a research resource (SFT/distillation, process rewards, failure taxonomies, security auditing, judge robustness, site drift) with copy-paste download/load recipes. Cites TurnOPD, ClawTrack, and RedundancyBench as existing external uses.
  • Competition proposal (docs/proposals/): WAB shared-task first, NeurIPS competition track second; organizers-run-everything execution model; budget envelope. Draft only — nothing has been sent to any organizer.

Review focus: factual claims in the autopsy are all trace-backed, but tone/length are editorial calls; the cookbook's task counts use the paper numbers (153/130) — will sync with #283's corrected counts (281/163) if that merges first.

…draft

- docs/trace-cookbook.md: what researchers can build on the five-layer trace
  datasets (SFT/distillation, process rewards, failure taxonomies, security
  audits, judge research, site-drift), with download/load recipes; cites
  TurnOPD / ClawTrack / RedundancyBench as existing precedents.
- docs/blog/: Trace Autopsy #1 — evidence-backed breakdown of an Opus 4.6
  fail on the Uber Eats task (mid-verification abandonment lockout), every
  quote verified against run 001-...-claude-opus-4-6-20260329-110845 in the
  public V1Trace dump. Includes an X-thread version.
- docs/proposals/clawbench-competition.md: internal draft for a WAB shared
  task / NeurIPS competition — not submitted anywhere yet.

Internal proposal leaked to PR: docs/proposals/clawbench-competition.md, please remove it.

Also I believe the website is a better place for the blog instead in the repo's documentation folder.

The trace-cookbook looks good to me.
