Challenge

Real-Time AI Operations Controller with Claude Agents SDK

Build an intelligent operations monitoring system designed for real-time decision-making in large-scale tech infrastructure. Using the Claude Agents SDK, you will implement an agent capable of extended reasoning to monitor system health and resolve anomalies. This system will integrate LiveKit for real-time voice-based operational alerts and use Portkey to maintain high-precision evaluation pipelines and observability for agent decisions. You will incorporate Neurolink to manage the persistent state and context of the operational agent, while using Captum to analyze and debug model decision-making patterns during operation. This setup focuses on the high-stakes requirement of corporate infrastructure monitoring, mirroring concerns faced by platforms managing complex domain-blocking or enterprise policy adherence.

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

Latency Check

Response under 500ms

Binary check

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

Dimension 2

Decision Accuracy

Correctness of diagnosis • target: 0.95 • range: 0-1
