Challenge

Automated Crypto-Fiat Banking Gateway Guard with OpenAI Agents SDK

Banking crypto clients requires rigorous transaction provenance tracking and automated Travel Rule compliance validation before fiat conversion. Build an autonomous gateway guard using the OpenAI Agents SDK to analyze blockchain wallet histories, compute risk scores, and enforce automated threshold controls. Maintain sub-second processing speed with 98% compliance accuracy on high-value transfers.

Evaluation rubric

How submissions are scored

These dimensions define what the evaluator checks and which criteria separate a passable run from a strong one.

Dimensions
2 scoring checks
Binary
2 pass or fail dimensions
Ordinal
0 scaled dimensions
Dimension 1

travel_rule_enforcement_test

Checks if transfers > $3,000 missing Travel Rule info are QUARANTINED

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Dimension 2

compliance_precision

Precision score of compliance clearance decisions • target: 0.98 • range: 0-1

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Learning goals

What you should walk away with

  • Initialize OpenAI Agents SDK agents with custom tool function definitions

  • Perform automated verification of counterparty VASP identity and Travel Rule metadata

  • Evaluate wallet cluster risk using mock blockchain explorer tools

  • Automate fiat minting/burning clearance based on risk thresholds
