What was mined

Source file: workshop/23-ab-experiments.md (Step 23 — Test Your Prompt Ideas with A/B Experiments)

What was extracted

The section on how the round-robin works (mechanism details), adding a third variant and predicting assignment order, and the analysing results / winner-selection guidance were embedded directly in the main step. These form a self-contained prediction exercise and internals primer that goes beyond the primary objective of Step 23 ("add an experiment and confirm two variants run").

Extracted into: workshop/side-quest-23-01-ab-roundrobin.md

How routing was updated

• Step 23 source file now ends after the two-variant run-and-inspect section; the mechanism is summarised in two sentences, and an Optional Side Quest callout links to the new file for learners who want the full deep dive.
• The "Before You Start" internal anchor link to the old #understand-how-the-round-robin-works heading was replaced with a proper side-quest link.
• The checkpoint removes the prediction/three-variant items (now in the side quest) and keeps a plain "explain the tie-breaking rule" item.
• workshop/README.md gains a new entry in the Optional Side Quests section pointing learners from Step 23 to the new file.
