Multi-Modal Vessel Loading Inspection Agent with Claude SDK and Gemini 2.5 Flash

Maritime crude oil loading requires dynamic inspection of vessel draft marks, loading arm alignment, and safety compliance images at marine terminals. Build a multimodal vision-language agent using Claude Agents SDK and Gemini 2.5 Flash as high-speed secondary vision runtime. The agent analyzes port surveillance photos, checks safety compliance against international tanker standards (ISGOTT), and calculates estimated laytime remaining based on visual pump connections.

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

safety_clearance_passed

Verify clearance is granted when sensors are normal.

Binary check

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

Dimension 2

issue_detection_recall

Recall metric for detecting visual safety violations. • target: 0.95 • range: 0-1

Binary check
