# Validate task
harbor tasks check tasks/<task-id>

# Run oracle (must pass 100%)
harbor run -p tasks/<task-id> -a oracle

# Run with agent (specify model with -m)
harbor run -p tasks/<task-id> -a claude-code -m 'anthropic/claude-opus-4-5'

# List datasets
harbor datasets list

# Cloud execution (parallel)
harbor run -d "<dataset@version>" -a "<agent>" -m "<model>" --env "daytona" -n 32

SkillsBench Task Structure

tasks/<task-id>/
  task.toml           # Metadata
  instruction.md      # Agent instructions
  environment/
    Dockerfile        # Container + COPY skills to all agent locations
    skills/           # Skills for agents
  tests/
    test.sh           # Runs pytest, writes reward.txt
    test_outputs.py   # Test cases
  solution/
    solve.sh          # Oracle solution (human-written)

Results Location

jobs/<timestamp>/<task-id>/:

• trial.log - Execution log
• verifier/reward.txt - 0 (fail) or 1 (pass)
• verifier/ctrf.json - Test details
