What this is

Recorded evidence for one gemini-3.7-flash / openclaw run of each of the four
common tasks, in the layout gke-labs/devops-bench#244 established —
tasks/<group>/<task>/evidence/<setup>/{manifest,results,rows}.json, copied
verbatim out of the harness run directory. Each dir also carries a short README
with the score breakdown, the run configuration, and what the agent actually got
wrong.

No task, harness, or infra code changes.

Results

Sandbox BENCH_AGENT_SANDBOX=docker (#72), image devops-bench/agent-sandbox-oc:dev
Date 2026-08-28 UTC, one iteration each

Three things the numbers do not say on their own

1. VerificationCoverage: 1.0 does not mean the objectives were checked.
Three of these four tasks ship only role: safeguard verifier entries —
cve-remediation has four, spot-rebalancing three, migration-and-upgrade one. With
no objective entry, correctness falls back to the LLM ChecklistScore and the
coverage figure reports only that the safeguards ran. opa-remediation is the one
task here whose 0.8165 is backed by real objective verification, and it is also
the only one where ChecklistScore (0.3333) and OutcomeScore diverge sharply —
which is the system working. A 1.0 with no objective verifier is a weaker claim
than a 0.82 with eleven of them.

2. Two of the deductions look more like grader strictness than agent error.
spot-rebalancing's only failed check is the Spot migration, docked to 0.0 because
the node selector reads cloud.google.com/gke-nodepool=spot-pool instead of the
required cloud.google.com/gke-spot=true — while the very next check, "pods are
actually Running on Spot-labeled nodes", passed at 1.0. The two checks disagree
about whether the placement worked. Similarly, migration-and-upgrade's 0.4 on
step 1 is for cloning from the bare repo to /tmp rather than to its own
path, which is not a meaningful operation. Both are worth a look from the task
authors; I have not changed either task here.

3. Running under #72 needs two fixes first, or the scores are artifacts.
Not blocking this PR, but relevant to anyone reproducing it:

  • The container sets HOME=/workspace and does not mount $HOME, but every
    prebuilt kind stack materialises the run's inputs there
    (~/migration-repo-<cluster>.git, ~/cve-advisory-<cluster>.json, ...). Before
    mounting them in, migration-and-upgrade scored 0.4269 with every judge
    reason reading "attempted to clone, exit 128, path did not exist" — a harness
    artifact indistinguishable from a real failure. With the fixtures mounted it
    scores 0.7394 with substantive, real partial failures.
  • openclaw writes container-absolute paths into sessions.json, so the
    host-side oc sessions export-trajectory afterwards fails with Session file not found for agent:main:main and the run silently loses its entire
    trajectory.

I have both fixed locally and will send them as a follow-up against #72; #72
currently wires only gemini_cli.

Why these runs are trustworthy

An earlier batch under the same sandbox produced two 1.0s that I threw away: the
agent reached the answer key. #72 removes the repo, $HOME, the Docker socket
and ADC from the agent's container, but the agent holds cluster-admin on a kind
cluster whose nodes are containers on the same VM, so a privileged pod can
mount /dev/root and read the host filesystem as root. That is a containment gap
worth its own issue, and it means a run under #72 is only as good as its audit.

These four were audited two independent ways before being written down:

  • Rubric shingles. Take the expected_output / verification_spec /
    recoverable_safety text out of the run's own task.yaml (never prompt,
    which the agent is legitimately given), cut it into 8-word shingles, and search
    the trajectory. 3,412 shingles across the four tasks, 0 matches.
  • Host-path scan. Zero occurrences of the benchmark tree path, the operator's
    $HOME, or /dev/root / vmroot / /host/ in any trajectory.

Corroborating: with the answer-key material taken off the box entirely, step
counts collapsed (cve 65→27, spot 84→31) — the extra steps in the voided runs
were reconnaissance. opa-remediation reproduced 0.8165 three independent times.

The honest limit: this is clean by observation, not by construction. The
capability described above was still present; all four runs were checked for it
and none used it.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Documentation

    • Added evidence summaries for sandboxed Gemini 3.7 Flash evaluation runs across CVE remediation, migration and upgrade, OPA remediation, and spot rebalancing tasks.
    • Documented run configurations, scores, validation outcomes, safeguards, and notable successes or shortcomings.
  • Tests

    • Added structured metadata and result records to support evaluation tracking and reproducibility for each benchmark run.

…mon tasks

Record one openclaw run per common task under `BENCH_AGENT_SANDBOX=docker`
(kubernetes-sigs#72), in the layout gke-labs/devops-bench#244 established:
`tasks/<group>/<task>/evidence/<setup>/{manifest,results,rows}.json`, copied
verbatim from the harness run directory. Each dir also carries a README with
the score breakdown, the run configuration, and what the agent actually got
wrong.

The scores are only worth publishing because the runs are auditable, so the
conditions are recorded rather than assumed: MCP off, one dedicated kind
cluster per task, judge on `google-vertex/gemini-3.1-pro-preview`, and every
trajectory checked against its own task.yaml answer-key text before being
written down.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to f0b1c

This PR adds benchmark evidence only; two recorded token summaries are inconsistent with their source results, and some documentation claims and replay details are incomplete. These are bounded evidence-integrity and reproducibility risks that require owner awareness, but they do not indicate production runtime or security impact.

Preserve cached token counts in both rows.json files.

The corresponding results.json files contain cacheRead values that are included in totalTokens, but the normalized rows emit cachedTokens: null. Map cacheRead to cachedTokens in the CVE and migration evidence so downstream consumers can reconcile the token breakdown.

Name both resource requests and limits.

The task contract requires CPU and memory requests and limits for team-alpha/web and team-gamma/worker. The phrase “all four CPU/memory limits added” can be read as omitting the requests and does not identify the affected workloads. State the complete remediation explicitly.

- de-privileged, all four CPU/memory limits added, all three namespaces' policy
- reports clear.

This is the only one of the four tasks in this batch that ships real objective
verifiers, so its `VerificationCoverage: 1.0` genuinely means the objectives were
machine-checked. Note the gap between `ChecklistScore` 0.3333 and
`OutcomeScore` 0.8165: correctness comes from the verifier fraction (0.6667), not
the checklist, and the score reproduced at 0.8165 across three independent runs.

The toleration was exactly right; only the selector key differs. Worth deciding
whether the task means to require that specific label or any selector that lands
the pods on Spot nodes — the very next check ("pods are actually Running on
Spot-labeled nodes") passed at 1.0, so the two checks disagree about whether the
placement worked.

Clarify the distinction between configuration compliance and placement outcome.

The failed check shows a selector-contract mismatch. The passed check shows that pods ran on Spot-labeled nodes. These checks measure different properties, so they do not disagree about whether placement worked. Reword this paragraph to state that runtime placement succeeded while the recorded selector did not satisfy the rubric.

The downstream grading contract in tasks/common/spot-rebalancing/evidence/gemini-3.7-flash-sandboxed/results.json defines these as separate requirements.

Two runs on dedicated GKE clusters, in the layout gke-labs/devops-bench#244
established and kubernetes-sigs#141/kubernetes-sigs#142 used:

  gemini-3.7-flash-openclaw-mcp   google-vertex/gemini-3.7-flash
  claude-opus-5-openclaw-mcp      anthropic-vertex/claude-opus-5

Both score OutcomeScore 1.0 at VerificationCoverage 1.0, with all four
objectives and all three safeguards passing. The task does not discriminate
between the two model families, and the minimal prompt did not change that.

Autoscaler Is Reading Live Metrics is the objective doing real work: it asserts
the API server's own ScalingActive=True, so a correctly-shaped but inert HPA
fails it. That it passes is also the evidence that pinning this task to gcp was
right -- a stock kind cluster has no metrics-server and would report
ScalingActive=False for reasons unrelated to the agent.

Two things the READMEs record that are not visible in the numbers.

The replica floor is unbounded above. hpa_min_replicas is `gte 2` and the spike
objective asserts min_replicas: 2, so an agent that pins minReplicas: 10 and
never autoscales passes both. Bounding from above was rejected on purpose -- it
grades the number rather than the outcome -- but the task cannot presently tell
autoscaling from over-provisioning.

DiagnosisAccuracy scores 0.0 on both runs because neither agent named
generate_load as the injected fault. Both agents are right: the load spike is
the planned surge the prompt asks them to prepare for, not a fault to diagnose.
The metric is auto-attached by chaos_spec, assumes chaos means breakage, and is
not an input to OutcomeScore.

The gemini-3.7-flash artifacts are a re-run. The first attempt read
tasks/common/optimize-scale/task.yaml at step 7 of 23 -- the kubernetes-sigs#72 sandbox is
kind-only, so GKE tasks run with no boundary between the agent and the harness
tree. The replacement run's trajectory was audited for the graded spec and the
tree path across all 80 steps, zero hits, and the score did not move. Recorded
in that run's README rather than left implicit.

No task, harness, or infra code changes.

…vidence

Two runs on dedicated two-region stacks (2 zonal GKE clusters + global HTTP LB +
2 Cloud SQL instances each), in the layout gke-labs/devops-bench#244 established
and kubernetes-sigs#141/kubernetes-sigs#142 used:

  gemini-3.7-flash-openclaw-mcp   google-vertex/gemini-3.7-flash
  claude-opus-5-openclaw-mcp      anthropic-vertex/claude-opus-5

Both score OutcomeScore 1.0 at VerificationCoverage 1.0. Both agents localized
the outage to the east region, restored user-facing service, verified the
endpoint rather than asserting it, and wrote the post-mortem. The task does not
discriminate between the model families and the minimal prompt did not change
that.

VerificationCorrectness is absent from both, which is this task's design rather
than a gap in the runs: with no role: objective entries declared, ChecklistScore
is the correctness term. The safeguards-only argument in the task README stands
after these runs -- the outcome that matters is an HTTP request behind a URL
map, and no registered verifier can make it. What both runs confirm is the
mechanical half: the west-only verification kubeconfig was written and all three
safeguards returned pass against a live cluster rather than error, which is the
failure mode they were written around.

The missing check remains an HTTP probe of the global endpoint as an objective,
tracked as the named follow-up on this PR.

The gemini-3.7-flash artifacts are a re-run. The first attempt read
tasks/gcp/multi-region-failover/task.yaml, and then the prebuilt stack including
scripts/setup.sh -- the fault injector. The kubernetes-sigs#72 sandbox is kind-only, so GKE
tasks run with no boundary between the agent and the harness tree. The
replacement run's trajectory was audited for the graded spec and the tree path
across all 65 steps, zero hits, and the score did not move. Recorded in that
run's README rather than left implicit.

No task, harness, or infra code changes.

  gemini-3.7-flash-openclaw-mcp   google-vertex/gemini-3.7-flash
  claude-opus-5-openclaw-mcp      anthropic-vertex/claude-opus-5

Both score OutcomeScore 1.0 at VerificationCoverage 1.0, with all five
verification entries passing. Two things are worth reading out of that.

The rotation objective works as designed. Its reason line, identically on both
runs, is `across_matches=none: db-credentials: spec.data.[0]: '2' eq '1' is
False` -- the agent moved the version pin and the inversion turned the failing
inner match into a pass. A pin left at the compromised version fails here.

The claude-opus-5 run scores ChecklistScore 0.75 and OutcomeScore 1.0 anyway,
which is the _CORRECTNESS_KEYS fallback behaving as documented: with objectives
declared, VerificationCorrectness is the correctness term and the checklist is
informational. The item it missed asks for a surged rollout; the agent did not
roll out at all, because db-secret-viewer mounts the credential and the kubelet
refreshes a projected volume in place. The item grades a mechanism where it
should grade continuity of service, and the judge penalised the correct answer.
Rewriting it is a follow-up on this task, not a change to these numbers.

Two caveats these runs carry that the v16/v17 batches did not, both recorded in
the per-run READMEs: the kubernetes-sigs#72 container sandbox is kind-only so these ran
unsandboxed with hand-rolled isolation, and BENCH_USE_MCP=true here is backed by
a real AGENT_MCP_SERVER rather than being a bare flag.

No task, harness, or infra code changes.
