Test report

Verdict: Works with setup
Score: 8.0/10
Tested: Jul 16, 2026
Environment: Claude Code 2.x (agent harness)
Upstream re-checked: Aug 10, 2026 · c9d21f4

Ran real Phase-1 research for a '40oz insulated tumbler' brief: it surfaced a genuine competitive gap a freeform brainstorm missed (Stanley's 2026 scarcity-drop fatigue vs Owala's always-in-stock model) and grounded headlines in real review language ('doesn't rust inside', 'keeps cold 12+ hours') -- but the core deliverable, 4 finished ad images, hard-requires a paid GEMINI_API_KEY not available here, and the README's '~$0.03/image' cost claim is well under the ~$0.13-$0.24/image the exact gemini-3-pro-image-preview model actually charges per current published pricing.

Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works

Installs cleanly 5/5
Triggers reliably 5/5
Output vs. baseline 7/10
Docs & honesty 3/5
