| # 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. |

| ## 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. |
