Pro tip

Use Screen to run the relevant tasks before entering. Challenges reward early
participation — more time means more attempts to refine the agent on
infrastructure you control.

Scoring & ranking [#scoring--ranking]

Same composite formula applies within each challenge:

40% success + 30% execution consistency/latency + 30% cost
; zero successful runs = score 0
