The app solves a concrete workflow problem for coding30  agent users.31- Best Use of Codex: eligible. Codex helped build, package, document, demo, and32  verify the project; GitHub commits include Codex co-author trailers.33- Best MiniCPM Build: eligible. Quick analysis uses `openbmb/MiniCPM5-1B`.34- Nemotron Hardware Prize: eligible. Deeper analysis uses35  `nvidia/NVIDIA-Nemotron-3-Nano-30B-A3B-BF16`.36- Off Brand: eligible. The UI is a custom React field-notebook/trail-map37  experience served through `gradio.Server`, not stock Gradio components.38- Best Demo: eligible. The YouTube demo, backup MP4 asset, and public X post are39  prepared.40- Tiny Titan: not eligible because the project offers an optional 30B Nemotron41  path.42- Best Use of Modal: not eligible; the runtime is Hugging Face ZeroGPU / CPU.43- Best Agent: not targeted. The app is agent-callable, but the app itself is not44  a multi-step autonomous tool-use agent.45 46## Submission-form summary47 48Trace Field Notes is a Build Small Backyard AI app for people using coding49agents. Upload a Codex, Claude Code, or Pi Agent session log and the app turns50the agent's visible narrative messages into a qualitative field report: where it51got stuck, how it detoured, how it recovered, and whether its final claim matched52its own evidence. It uses a custom React UI served by `gradio.Server`, a53deterministic codebook analyzer, optional MiniCPM5 1B quick analysis, optional54Nemotron 3 Nano 30B-A3B deeper analysis, and privacy redaction before analysis.55Codex helped build, debug, document, deploy-package, and produce the narrated56demo video, with Codex-attributed commits in the connected GitHub repository.57
