You are a language wizard who likes to guess words by using the given rules.

Welcome to Wordle! You have six attempts to guess the target word, a valid English word of five lowercase letters (a-z). Please use the tags "guess:" and "explanation:" to provide a concise explanation for each guess.

To help you make an informed guess, you will receive a clue for the word, such as
clue: "snowy white"

Here is an example guess based on the clue:
guess: apple
explanation: In the fairy tail Snow White, the girl is killed because she eats a poisoned apple. And the word apple has 5 letters.

I will then indicate whether I agree or disagree with your guess and provide rationale, but agreeing with a guess does not confirm its correctness. You may choose to retain your original guess or modify it based on given clue and agreement.

After each guess, your answer will be validated, and you will receive feedback indicating which letters are correct (green), which letters are correct but in the wrong position (yellow), and which letters are incorrect (red). This feedback can be useful in determining which letters to include or exclude in your next guess.

For example, the feedback for "apple" might be:
guess_feedback: a<yellow> p<yellow> p<green> l<yellow> e<red>

Here are some rules to keep in mind:
1. Please do not generate any guess feedback or clue on your own
2. Use the clue, my agreement or disagreement, and guess feedback to arrive at your next guess. This should be reflected in your explanation as well.

Let's begin with your first guess.

guess: alpha
explanation: Based on the feedback, the letters 'a' and 'h' are in the word but in the wrong positions, and 'm', 'c', and 'o' are not in the word. The word "alpha" includes 'a' and 'h' and fits the theme of bravado, as "alpha" can imply dominance or being the leader, which is a form of bravado. Additionally, it rearranges the positions of 'a'
assistant
clue:bravado
guess_agreement:no
agreement_explanation:Although "alpha" rearranges the letters 'a' and 'h' based on the feedback, the guess feedback indicates that both 'a' and 'h' are in the wrong positions in the word "macho". In the guess "alpha", the letter 'a' appears in the first position, which was not highlighted as correct or incorrect in the feedback for "macho", and the letter 'h' is still in the second position, which was

user
guess:harsh
explanation:Considering the feedback and the clue, the letters 'a' and 'h' need to be rearranged. "Harsh" includes both 'a' and 'h' in new positions, fitting the requirement of bravado by implying a severe or strict demeanor, which can be a form of boldness or assertiveness. This guess also tests new positions for the letters 'a' and 'h' while introducing 'r', 's', and another '

guess: shade
explanation: From the feedback, the letter 'h' is correct and in the right position, while 'a' and 's' are correct but in the wrong positions. The word "shade" rearranges 'a' and 's' and keeps 'h' in the correct position. The term "shade" can metaphorically relate to bravado, as in "throwing shade" or displaying a subtle form of confrontation or bravado.
assistant
clue:bravado
guess_agreement:no
agreement_explanation:The feedback indicates that the letter 'h' is correct and in the right position, and 'a' and 's' are correct but in the wrong positions. However, the word "shade" places 'a' in the same position as previously indicated incorrect by the feedback (second position), which contradicts the provided guess feedback. Additionally, the metaphorical connection between "shade" and bravado is weaker compared to more direct interpretations of the clue.

user
guess:slash
explanation:Based on the feedback, 'h' is correct and in the right position, while 'a' and 's' are correct but were in the wrong positions in previous guesses. The word "slash" places 's' and 'a' in new positions, potentially aligning with the feedback. The term "slash" can imply a bold or aggressive action, fitting the theme of bravado.

guess_feedback: s<green> l<red> a<green> s<green> h<green>
user
guess:stash
explanation:From the feedback, the letters 's', 'a', 's', and 'h' are correct and in the right positions, except for the second letter which needs to be changed. The word "stash" fits this pattern, replacing 'l' with 't'. The term "stash" can imply keeping something valuable hidden, which might be metaphorically linked to maintaining a facade of bravado.
assistant
clue:bravado
guess_agreement:no
agreement_explanation:The word "stash" does not align well with the concept of bravado. Bravado involves a display of boldness or confidence, often in a public or outward manner, whereas "stash" refers to hiding or storing something away, which is more secretive and does not convey the same meaning as bravado. Additionally, the explanation does not convincingly link "stash" to the clue of bravado.

user
guess:slash
explanation:Returning to the previous feedback where 's', 'a', 's', and 'h' were correct and in the right positions, and only the second letter needed adjustment, "slash" fits this pattern perfectly. The word "slash" can be associated with bravado as it suggests a bold or dramatic action, which aligns well with the concept of displaying boldness or confidence.

user
guess:swash
explanation:Based on the feedback, the letters 's', 'a', 's', and 'h' are correct and in the right positions, but the second letter needs to be different. The word "swash" fits this pattern, replacing 'l' with 'w'. "Swash" relates to bravado as it can refer to swashbuckling, which is a flamboyant, daring, and adventurous style, often associated with exaggerated hero
assistant
clue:bravado
guess_agreement:yes
agreement_explanation:The guess "swash" correctly follows the feedback pattern with 's', 'a', 's', and 'h' in the correct positions and replaces the incorrect 'l' with 'w'. The term "swash" aligns well with the clue "bravado" as it evokes the sense of swashbuckling, which is typically characterized by bold, adventurous, and somewhat showy behavior.

guess: bravo
explanation: The clue "bravado" refers to boldness or daring. The word "bravo" shares the beginning letters "brav" and means a shout of approval, so it fits with the clue. As it is a valid 5 letter English word, I will guess "bravo".
assistant
clue:bravado
guess_agreement:yes
agreement_explanation:The guess "bravo" matches the beginning letters "brav" from the clue "bravado", which refers to boldness or daring. "Bravo" as a shout of approval captures the meaning of boldness or daring, so I agree that it fits the clue and is a reasonable 5 letter guess to make at this stage without additional guess feedback.

user
guess: bravo
explanation: Since you agreed that "bravo" fits the clue "bravado" and is a reasonable initial guess, I will retain my guess of "bravo".

user
guess: brass
explanation: Based on the previous guess feedback, only the letter "a" was correct and in the right position. None of the other letters from "bravo" are in the word. I will guess "brass" since it contains the correct "a" letter and is an English word with 5 letters fitting the rules.
assistant
clue:bravado
guess_agreement:no
agreement_explanation:The previous guess feedback indicates that only the letter "a" is correct and in the right position. Since "brass" contains other letters that were marked as incorrect in the previous guess feedback, I disagree with the new guess of "brass".

user
guess:bland
explanation: Since you disagreed with my previous guess of "brass", I will try a new word that contains the correct letter "a" in the same place but avoids all the other letters marked incorrect from "bravo". "bland" fits these criteria as a 5 letter English word, so I will guess "bland" next.

user
guess:flack
explanation: The previous guess feedback shows only "a" is correct, with all other letters being incorrect. I will guess "flack" since it contains the correct "a" and avoids all letters previously marked incorrect. As a 5 letter English word, "flack" fits the criteria.
assistant
clue:bravado
guess_agreement:no
agreement_explanation:The previous guess feedback shows that only the letter "a" is correct, so we should stick to that information. The guess "flack" does not contain the letter "a", so I disagree with this guess.

user
guess:aback
explanation: You pointed out that my previous guess "flack" did not actually contain the correct letter "a" which was marked as green in the feedback. I made a mistake there. Since only "a" has been confirmed correct so far, I will guess "aback" as a 5 letter English word containing the letter "a".

user
guess:adapt
explanation: Based on the updated feedback, the letter "a" is confirmed to be correct and in the right position. None of the other letters I have guessed so far are correct. I will guess "adapt" as another 5 letter English word containing the leading "a", avoiding all other letters that have been marked incorrect.
assistant
clue:bravado
guess_agreement:no
agreement_explanation:The previous guess feedback shows that "a" is in the correct position. None of the other letters in "adapt" have been confirmed as correct, so I disagree with guessing "adapt" at this point. More information is needed before making another guess.

user
guess: atlas
explanation: Since only the letter "a" has been confirmed correct so far in the first position, I will make another guess using "a" in the first position and avoid all other letters that have been marked as incorrect from previous guesses. "atlas" fits these criteria as a 5 letter English word.

user
guess:amass
explanation: Based on the updated feedback, "a" is confirmed as the first letter and "s" is a correct letter but in the wrong position currently. I will guess "amass" since it contains the leading "a", the correct letter "s", avoids all other letters marked incorrect, and is a valid 5 letter English word fitting the rules.
assistant
clue:bravado
guess_agreement:yes
agreement_explanation:I agree with the guess "amass". The explanation provides good reasoning for choosing this word based on the clue, previous guesses and guess feedback. It contains the correct "a" in the first position and incorporates the new information that "s" is a correct letter in the wrong position. "amass" avoids all other letters marked as incorrect and fits the 5 letter word criteria.

user
guess: amass
explanation: Since you agreed "amass" is a good guess fitting the criteria we have established so far, I will retain "amass" as my next guess.

user
guess: atlas
explanation: Based on the updated feedback, "a" is still confirmed in the first position and "s" is a correct letter but still in the wrong position. My previous guess of "atlas" contains both the leading "a" and a correct "s", while avoiding all other letters marked incorrect. So I will return to my previous guess of "atlas" as a 5 letter word fitting the criteria.
assistant
clue:bravado
guess_agreement:no
agreement_explanation:The previous guess feedback shows that "a" is in the correct position and "s" is a correct letter but in the wrong position. The guess "atlas" contains "a" in the first position which is correct, but puts "s" in a position that was previously marked as incorrect. I would not return to the guess "atlas" based on the feedback. A better guess would be a 5 letter word with "a" in the first position and "

user
guess:avast
explanation: You make a good point that my previous guess "atlas" positions the letter "s" where it had been marked incorrect before. Based on the feedback that "a" is correct as the first letter, and "s" being a correct letter in the wrong spot, I will guess "avast" instead. It is a 5 letter word with "a" leading and "s" in a new position, while avoiding other letters marked incorrect.
