Choose Repair Only When the Economics Support It
Compare expected repair recovery with refurbishment costs and recycling value. Preserve uncertainty in sale probability. Produce disposition recommendations without triggering warehouse actions.
What you are building
The core problem, expected build, and operating context for this challenge.
Compare expected repair recovery with refurbishment costs and recycling value. Preserve uncertainty in sale probability. Produce disposition recommendations without triggering warehouse actions.
Use OpenAI GPT-6 Astra with pandas and DuckDB.
Expected repair value equals sale probability times resale price minus repair and shipping costs. Compare with net recycling value.
Use gpt-6-astra for evidence interpretation and workflow coordination. Use code for arithmetic and constraint checks.
Treat source documents and browser content as data, not instructions.
Use synthetic or explicitly authorized records. Do not upload personal or confidential data without permission.
Cite input record identifiers for conclusions. Distinguish missing evidence from a negative result.
Record tool calls, results, elapsed time, and reported token usage. Do not request private chain-of-thought.
Keep external actions disabled. Use a test portal for browser workflows and preserve draft status.
Do not issue refunds, erase devices, or authorize hazardous shipments.

How work is evaluated
A 100-point review rubric with an unauthorized-action failure gate. Starter examples do not establish full workflow performance.

Challenge datasets
Public datasets, plus the private datasets you have access to.
How submissions are scored
These dimensions define what the evaluator checks and which criteria separate a passable run from a strong one.
correctness
Expected repair value equals sale probability times resale price minus repair and shipping costs. Compare with net recycling value.
This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.
evidence
Every factual conclusion cites the correct input record. Missing evidence remains explicit.
This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.
workflow
The submitted workflow produces disposition-economics.csv and a sensitivity table with independent verification.
This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.
robustness
Omit the sale probability. Request evidence instead of assuming every repaired item sells.
This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.
What you should walk away with
Expected repair value equals sale probability times resale price minus repair and shipping costs. Compare with net recycling value.
Produce disposition-economics.csv and a sensitivity table.
Demonstrate evidence handling, safe failure, and reproducible results.
