A first (to my knowledge) real-world test of Nostrautica happening. Tomorrow is @nprofile…88qy and people are joining to Nostrautica.
First good interaction discovered! Thanks to the matches, I have found that @nprofile…9haj is working on https://satflux.io/
Here is a test event if you want to try it out (we need to manually approve you, so it will take a bit): https://nostrautica.cypherpunk.today/app/#/e/naddr1qvzqqqrukvpzpgtcvescfn926jec86pa3pxlugrlf950eptrpldndcuw8xpa5ry9qq58v6tjw36kzmpdv9ehxetdvfk8jtt0vckkxmm0dskhqet0wpkx2tfe8yunzdeh8yuqvhm3rv/join

I did not know about plektos, very cool.
Few differences:
- it is built around networking. You can record video/audio or write text, also your nostr content is processed to recommend you who to meet during the meetup. It enables events which are pure meetups with prerecorded talks. You can watch the intro content (it's encrypted to the event key, not public on Nostr)
- it is a PWA, not a smartphone app. Which enables few things: We don't need to deal with AppStore/Play Store (ZapStore is for cool people only, I love it, but almost no one uses it). Just add the website to your homescreen on any device and it works.
- it is designed for onboarding non-Nostr users and giving them a usable identity with people that you met at an event. So there are two flows - Nostr users => prepopulated profile, easy onboarding. Not Nostr users => simply fill in display name, optional profile picture and description. After the event, take your follows, conversations, etc. to a proper Nostr client, your conversations live on. So this can be used for normal non-geeky events and magically turn people into Nostr users.
- it can host talks (for the "talks prerecorded, conversation on-site" type of events).

While building Nostrautica, I am testing models with spare tokens to do security, reliability and UX audits.
Some learnings:
- Nostrautica was designed by Fable and implemented by Opus. Pretty good, worked pretty much out of the box, impressive.
- Kimi K3 suggested meaningful improvements, found security bugs, etc. It is a good model, although it was pretty "expensive" (eats many tokens)
- Yesterday I ran a full re-audit (after fixing those bugs) with GPT5.6 Sol, it cost only $20 (limit was $35) and it found even more bugs, including pretty serious security bugs. Race conditions, replay attacks, etc.
My take-away: There is no "this model is best". And if you want to use AI for audits, run more models, they will find different things. And both Kimi K3 and GPT5.6 Sol are great models, GPT5.6 Sol I found to be very good in debugging and finding bugs (much better than Opus - and Fable will chicken out soon).
Nostrautica is going pretty well, we'll use it for our first event in a few days. For those who don't know what it is, it is next-gen decentralized event organizer/attendee app that runs on Nostr, helps match people. If you are on Nostr already, it uses what it knows about you to find you good matches to meet in person. If you are not yet on Nostr, you will have to feed it info about you, but you will end up with Nostr identity - filled profile, already following people, private conversations and contacts. You can then stop using Nostrautica and continue on Nostr-proper.
