About this run
An autonomous playthrough of Pokémon Red, driven by Claude Opus 4.7. The model receives screenshots from a Game Boy emulator and decides every input — no human assistance, no save scumming, no walkthroughs.
A small harness captures the emulator screen every few seconds, sends it to Claude with the current goal and recent memory, and forwards Claude's chosen button presses back to the emulator. Claude maintains its own notes about the world, party, and objectives between turns.
Rules
What counts as fair play in this run.
- 01No human input — Claude controls every button press.
- 02No save scumming. If a Pokémon faints, it stays fainted until a Pokémon Center.
- 03No walkthroughs or external lookups in the prompt.
- 04If the entire party faints, the run continues from the last in-game save.
