Key Highlights
- Pick an anchor tool and design a problem that hinges on its waveform-processing kernels, geophysical inversion routines, sub-surface flow solvers, or community-validated data pipelines.
- Write a Python reference solution, supply input files and model or domain definitions where needed.
- Decide the numerical answer and how close the model needs to get — with a domain-appropriate tolerance — to count as right.
- Test the problem against the model in batches of parallel attempts, tuning the problem difficulty until the agent only succeeds in a small number of attempts.
- Once you’re happy with the task, and it scores within range, the task goes to a senior reviewer in your subfield. They will provide feedback to ensure task quality is high.
