A fly brain plays cute-dino

A fixed circuit of 80 MaleCNS v1.0 neurons and 1,296 measured synapses plays a browser runner game; the only trained part is a 269-parameter readout evolved by the cross-entropy method. On 100 unseen tracks the deployed model finishes 82, hand-written rules finish 25, and silencing the circuit or leaving the readout untrained finishes 0 — identical to doing nothing. The README refuses the obvious overclaim twice: 82/100 is one seed out of a 46–87 range, and no shuffled-connectome control was retrained, so this does not show the fly's wiring beats random wiring.
