Prompt

I filled index.html (link is to index.original.html) with the polygot code needed for the prompt, then ran:

multi-lang-coder #index.html

context = The page will be hosted on GitHub Pages, and built from action `.github/workflows/deploy.yml`.

Results

Great! I mixed-up the code in the script tag, leaving about 25% of it maybe valid JavaScript. The rest a mix of bash, implied Python, and HTML DOM inferences. With that:

  • It improved the UI significantly, which at the time of the prompt was - good enough
  • The functionality was exactly what I was intending
  • The fact that the UI was changed (improved) significantly is controversial, but could easliy be resolved with an extra sentence in the prompt
