●●●BangerBig BrainDark Horse

Crude multi-agent swarm ties single LLM on sentiment—shifts burden of proof to simulation vendors.

Strengths

•Addresses the missing calibration layer in AI social simulation claims with actual measurements.
•Runs 100% locally on Ollama for sovereign testing without cloud dependencies.
•Transparent about limitations upfront—n=5 synthetic cases, not pretending to be definitive.

Weaknesses

•Small sample size (n=5) means magnitude/polarization correlations are essentially noise.
•Tests naive persona-averaging, not the actual MiroFish engine with rich interactions.

The Algorithm's Favorite Child – A social experiment

Neat demo — the blueprint exposes discrete behaviors (simulated feed checks, automated upvotes and comment creation, and auto-post drafting) and surfaces activity in a tidy timeline so you can watch an agent 'perform'. It reads like a playful research toy more than a production system: interesting for prototyping agent social dynamics, but it glosses over moderation, safety and real-world platform constraints.
