# Pardon My Pleasure

> A playful first-principles game for adults about small guilty pleasures: list up to six, answer three quick questions about each, and see each one re-tried from first principles - pardoned in full, pardoned with a curfew, pardoned once settled, or not for this court - with a short mock-formal pardon for each.

## What it does

- You list small guilty pleasures (cereal for dinner, a reality TV marathon, ketchup on everything) with an optional line on what each looks like.
- For each pleasure you answer three questions: who pays for it (Only me, Someone else a little, Someone else a lot), whether it crowds out something you care about (No, Sometimes, Often), and where the guilt comes from (What others might think, A rule from growing up, My own sense it is too much, Not sure).
- Free, in the browser: a weight (0-4), a verdict with fixed rules (gambling, drink, smoking or vaping, drugs, debt, speeding, taking things, hurting yourself or someone else, or adult content: not for this court; someone else pays: pardoned once settled; crowds out often, or sometimes with your own guilt: pardoned with a curfew; otherwise pardoned in full), what the guilt rests on (borrowed, your own or unclear), the page's pick of the next step, the most innocent pleasure, an SVG/PNG roll of wax-sealed scrolls, and Markdown, CSV and JSON downloads.
- Metered (one run on gpt-terra): a short mock-formal pardon for each pleasure, a first-principles reason from your own answers, and one next step. The run never changes the page's verdicts.

## Contract

POST https://api.skillsafe.ai/v1/app-api/run with string fields: task = "grant-pardons", pleasures (one numbered line per pleasure with its three answers), facts (the page's weights, verdicts, what the guilt rests on, pardon openings, steps, counts and the most innocent pleasure). The reply is one JSON object: {task, headline, pleasures: [{name, verdict, decree, why, step}], closing}.

## Notes

A playful game about small harmless pleasures, not advice of any kind and not a judgement of anyone. If something you enjoy ever worries you, talk to someone you trust or a professional.
