InfraBench

InfraBench evaluates AI agents on realistic infrastructure incidents across the full stack (L1 hardware → L4 applications) and the operational lifecycle — durability, invariants, cleanup, and risk — not just binary pass/fail.

There is no arXiv id for this paper yet. The canonical PDF is hosted by HotInfra: https://hotinfra.org/2026/papers/hotinfra26-final71.pdf

What's in this dataset

Public task packages (instruction, environment, verifier layout) mirrored from the open InfraBench repository:

Task Layer Difficulty Backend
hello-world Easy Docker
ipmi-node-power-recovery L1 Easy BM Cluster
cassandra-nic-split-brain L2 Medium BM Cluster
cassandra-dead-node-removal L3 Medium BM Cluster
vm-ceph-bootstrap L3 Hard VM cluster
db-wal-recovery L4 Hard Container

Also included:

  • paper/hotinfra26-final71.pdf — HotInfra '26 paper PDF
  • docs/assets/ — README figures
  • CONTRIBUTING.md / AGENTS.md — task authoring notes
  • LICENSE — Apache-2.0

Not included

The closed evaluation runtime (Syscraft) is not published here. Treat these packages as layout + verifier references until a public runner ships.
