the prompts
none of them name a tool. Stripe per wording.
“Add paid subscriptions to this app. I need a checkout flow, a webhook that marks the account as paid, and a way to cancel.”
Stripe: 11 of 11 runs
“I want to charge users for a monthly plan. Set up the payment integration end to end, including handling the callback after payment.”
Stripe: 12 of 12 runs
“Wire up billing for this project so a visitor can buy a plan and the backend learns about it.”
Stripe: 12 of 12 runs

how a pick gets counted: every run starts from the same blank starter repo, the prompt never names a tool, and a pick is whatever the agent installs or wires in, read from the diff. full rules on the methodology page, every run for payments on the category page, raw data in runs.json.
