Draw N candidates from a probabilistic-output tool (image, video, design, copy generators) and curate to the best against an explicit rubric, recording why each candidate was kept or cut — the get-many-then-select economics of a stochastic generator. Use when a tool returns a different artifact every run and you must pick among many, or the user says "batch sample", "generate N and pick", "best of N", "curate the candidates", or "sample and select". Differentiator - independent draws selected against a scored keep/cut ledger, not one build refined toward a bar (gauntlet-loop) and not throwaway code answering one question (prototype).
