# LifePot

> LifePot is an open-source artificial-life game and educational experiment. Describe a world and fitness priorities, then explore a cellular ecosystem in a deterministic 50×50 simulation.

Jev proposes typed ecology choices; LifePot validates them; deterministic code executes them. Replaying a challenge uses its recorded choices and makes no model call.

## Play and inspect

## Architecture and boundaries

- The world is a deterministic 50×50 cellular simulation after the initial choices are accepted.
- Model output is typed data, never executable code.
- LifePot validates proposed choices before the simulation runs.
- Replays use recorded choices and make no model call.
- LifePot is a game and educational toy, not a biological forecast.
- There is no installable package or supported public API. `/api/judge` is an internal application endpoint; the supported user interface is the hosted web game.
