i just asked luna to write a function that transformed a file path while upholding an invariant about lowercase file names. completed that task just fine. i see no reason it wouldn't work if i asked it for 99 other functions with that same constraint.

again, you're expecting to use it without steering. that's not how you get the most out of the smaller models. i don't want to say you're using them wrong, but you clearly are. it could be deficiencies in your harness as well which the stronger models mask. try pi.
