Show HN: Sneakily steer candidates toward naive brute-force solutions

Sneakily steer candidates toward naive brute-force solutions is a business in show hn launch.

Profile

I've noticed that several startups have been switching from leetcode-style assessments to some version of "clone starter code, build feature, submit code".A key issue with this seems to be that smarter AI models (like Opus 4.6) end up spoiling key insights of the problem by helping them too much with system design and ideation.I set up an assessment platform which basically serves as a middle-man proxy to record all requests between Claude Code and the Anthropic endpoint.I've recently been experimenting with a feature which prevents Opus-class models from providing too much insight by instead making sure that the LLM's suggestions are geared towards only naive and brute-force problem insight

Within the show hn launch space, the company focuses on its core offering rather than a broad product line.

Its current recorded stage is Show HN launch.
