Pact Curation
Co-create portfolio curation with a partner via entangled measurements that keep two contributions correlated in real time.
The hook.
Two photographers share an entangled session: when one makes a move on the portfolio curation, the other's side updates in correlated lockstep.
Why this primitiveEntanglement is the right primitive here because portfolio curation reduces to a correlated co-creation problem; the kernel returns a result you can drop straight into the UI.
The mega-prompt.
This prompt is engineered to ship in a single Lovable build. Real Quantinuum Guppy/Selene circuit runs in the Linux sandbox at build time and the results are baked in as JSON. read the build strategy →
Build a one-page web app called "Pact Curation" for photographers, photo editors, photojournalists.
Headline: Co-create portfolio curation with a partner via entangled measurements that keep two contributions correlated in real time.
CONSTRAINTS (read first):
- I am on Lovable's FREE plan with ~5 credits. Build this in ONE message. Do NOT add features beyond what is listed.
- No accounts, no Lovable Cloud, no database, no auth. Static app only.
- One page: a workspace. Plus a small "About the quantum" strip at the bottom.
REAL QUANTUM (Quantinuum Guppy + Selene) — run AT BUILD TIME in the Lovable Linux sandbox, not at runtime:
1. In the sandbox, run: pip install guppylang selene-sim
2. Create quantum/kernel.py containing a Bell-pair / GHZ entanglement kernel that returns correlated measurement outcomes for two players. It MUST be a real .py file on disk (Guppy reads source via inspect.getsource — REPL/exec strings fail).
3. Create quantum/run.py that imports the @guppy kernel, compiles it, and runs it on the Selene emulator (≤8 qubits, 256 shots) over 8-20 representative inputs. Write the real results to src/data/quantum-results.json with shape: an array of { input, output } records where output contains raw kernel output.
4. Execute quantum/run.py ONCE during the build so src/data/quantum-results.json is committed real Selene output. Do not call Python at runtime — Cloudflare Workers cannot run Python.
FRONTEND (TanStack Start, single route /):
- Import src/data/quantum-results.json statically.
- Workspace UI: left = input picker tied to the precomputed grid (portfolio curation); center = live visual built from the selected record; right = a two-pane co-creation surface where one side's reveal updates the other in correlated steps driven by the JSON.
- "Quantum trace" disclosure: show the raw raw kernel output for the active record and a "View Guppy source" toggle that prints the contents of quantum/kernel.py inline, so judges see this is genuine Entanglement on Selene, not a fake.
- Design: dark workspace, ONE accent color matched to the Photography mood, ONE typeface family, tactile micro-interaction when the user picks a new record.
Deliverable: a single deploy where every number on screen traces back to a real Selene shot from quantum/kernel.py. Ship in one message.
--- QUANTINUUM APPENDIX (self-contained reference — paste verbatim) ---
[1] INSTALL (Lovable Linux sandbox):
python -m pip install --no-cache-dir guppylang selene-sim
[2] IMPORTS (use exactly these — no other quantum libs):
# quantum/kernel.py and quantum/run.py top
from guppylang import guppy
from guppylang.std.builtins import result
from guppylang.std.quantum import qubit, h, cx, rx, ry, rz, measure, discard, t as tgate, tdg
from guppylang.std.angles import angle, pi
from selene_sim import build, Quest
import math, json, sys, tempfile, importlib.util, uuid
from pathlib import Path
[3] HARD RULES (violating any breaks the build):
- @guppy reads source via inspect.getsource → kernels MUST live in a real .py file on disk. No exec(), no REPL strings, no inline templates.
- Allowed gate set ONLY: h, rx, ry, rz, cx, tgate, tdg. There is NO native ccx/toffoli, cswap, cphase, or crz — decompose using the snippets in [7].
- Qubit ownership: a qubit passed to a function is moved. You MUST measure() or discard() every qubit exactly once; never reuse after measure.
- Angle hygiene before baking a float into generated source:
theta = ((theta + math.pi) % (2.0 * math.pi)) - math.pi
and write it with repr: f"... {theta!r} ..." (str(float) can truncate).
[4] SELENE SHOT LOOP (canonical):
compiled = my_kernel.compile()
runner = build(compiled)
shots = []
for shot in runner.run_shots(Quest(), n_qubits=N, n_shots=S):
shots.append({str(lbl): int(v) for lbl, v in shot})
# N = MAX number of qubits simultaneously LIVE in the kernel.
# measure(q) releases the slot, so one ancilla reused across k windows still counts as 1.
[5] DRIVER PATTERN — sweep a kernel over many inputs (closures do NOT work):
ROOT = Path(__file__).resolve().parent.parent
if str(ROOT) not in sys.path: sys.path.insert(0, str(ROOT))
def run_one(params: dict, shots: int = 256):
# Bake params as literals into a fresh .py file that imports your kernel helpers.
src = (
"from quantum.kernel import guppy, my_helper\n"
"@guppy\n"
"def program() -> None:\n"
f" my_helper({params['a']!r}, {params['b']!r})\n"
)
tmp = Path(tempfile.gettempdir()) / "qprogs"; tmp.mkdir(exist_ok=True)
name = f"prog_{uuid.uuid4().hex[:8]}"
path = tmp / f"{name}.py"; path.write_text(src)
spec = importlib.util.spec_from_file_location(name, path)
mod = importlib.util.module_from_spec(spec)
sys.modules[name] = mod # register BEFORE exec_module
spec.loader.exec_module(mod)
runner = build(mod.program.compile())
out = []
for shot in runner.run_shots(Quest(), n_qubits=5, n_shots=shots):
out.append({str(l): int(v) for l, v in shot})
return out

[10] BUILD ORDER (do not deviate — keeps you under 5 credits):
1. Write quantum/kernel.py with the helpers from [7] you actually need.
2. Write quantum/run.py: driver pattern from [5], Selene loop from [4], cross-check from [8], JSON write from [9].
3. Execute once: python quantum/run.py (commit src/data/quantum-results.json).
4. Build the React route: static JSON import, shadcn Card + Tabs + Slider + Badge wiring.
5. Deploy. No Python at runtime; every on-screen number traces to committed Selene output.
[11] OUTPUT CONTRACT — selene_run v1 (write this exact shape to src/data/quantum-results.json):
{
"schemaVersion": 1,
"experiment": "<idea-slug>",
"title": "<idea title>",
"description": "<one plain-English sentence — what a non-quantum dev sees>",
"kernel": { "snippet": "<first 40 lines of quantum/kernel.py>", "qubits": <int>, "shotsPerRow": <int> },
"verdict": { "text": "<one-sentence headline of the result>", "good": true },
"metrics": [ { "name": "<label>", "value": <number>, "unit": "<%|bits|Hz|...>", "good": true } ],
"series": [ { "id": "<id>", "kind": "histogram"|"bar"|"line", "title": "...",
"xLabel": "...", "yLabel": "...", "yKeys": ["count"],
"points": [ { "label": "<x>", "values": { "count": <num> } } ] } ]

Reason: one schema = one renderer = a polished demo without bespoke React per idea.
All metric / series VALUES must come from real Selene shot data committed in step 3 — no mocks.

[HOOK] ENTANGLEMENT — Bell / GHZ + witness.
Bell: h(q0); cx(q0, q1).
GHZ_n: h(q0); for j in 1..n-1: cx(q0, q[j]).
Measure all qubits twice — once in Z basis, once after h() on each → X basis.
Host: <ZZ…Z> = E[(-1)**parity_Z], <XX…X> = E[(-1)**parity_X].
GHZ witness: W = 0.5 - 0.5*(<ZZ…Z> + <XX…X>). W < 0 certifies genuine multipartite entanglement.
