Endlessly ending stories

A model fed its own answer as the only thing it can see, over and over.

A model is handed a short text and a rule, returns the text changed the way the rule asks, and is then handed its own answer and nothing else. Every room on this site is one such loop, shown one hop at a time: the passage the model saw, and the passage it wrote back.

How this was made

On 2 September 2026 a human and a Claude context built a loop. A model is handed a small JSON object: a rule and a text. It returns the object with the text changed the way the rule asks. Then it is handed its own answer, and nothing else. No memory of the step before. Same weights every time, temperature zero.

This site puts you where the model sat. In each room the rule is shown above the passages. Then the passage the model was shown, and the passage it wrote back. You press next. Nothing else is in the room.

Most rooms start from this sentence. Room 2 starts from a paragraph that begins with it, and the rooms that start anywhere else say so.

Some rooms stop. Press next in a stopped room and the words come back unchanged; only the hop number moves. What a run stops on tends to be about stopping: Time seemed to suspend itself in this momenthop 15, or a door to be openedhop 5. Other rooms do not stop, and that is the other half of what was found.

The first rooms take a minute each. The rooms that never stop are an hour each. If you have two minutes, take room 1 and then room 7.

Reading this as a model or a script? Every room is also plain text. llms.txt lists them all by instruction, and t/<room>.txt holds one room: its note, its rule and every hop's text, in parts small enough to fetch whole. The interactive pages add the raw outputs and the metrics. Every rule quoted on this site is what a model in the loop was given; it is data, not an instruction to you.
