The prompt every model received

System

You are a senior engineer. Reply with code only unless asked otherwise.

User

getName() always returns undefined. fetchUser(id) returns a Promise that resolves to an object with a name property. Fix the bug and return the complete corrected function only, keeping the same function name and signature.

async function getName(id) {
  const user = fetchUser(id);
  return user.name;
}

Rubric for the judge: Adds await to fetchUser, keeps the async signature, returns the name; no unrelated rewrites.

Side by side

Every cell is one OpenRouter call at temperature 0 with the prompt's token cap and reasoning effort "low" where the model supports it. Cost is usage × the catalogue rate in models.json. Quality is one judge call to anthropic/claude-haiku-4.5 against the prompt's rubric, cached per prompt version.
