What Coral New Task does

Coral New Task explains how to add a new CORAL task under examples/, including task.yaml, seed/, and a packaged grader. Use it when porting a benchmark or creating a task that CORAL can validate and grade.

Coral New Task is cataloged under AI Engineering on DirSkills. Coral New Task comes from a repository tagged agent-framework, agent-orchestration, agentic-ai, ai-agents and alpha-evolve.

Documentation

README

Creating a new CORAL task

A CORAL task is three things that must line up:

examples/<task>/
โ”œโ”€โ”€ task.yaml      # config: name, description, grader entrypoint, agent count
โ”œโ”€โ”€ seed/          # starter code agents see when they begin (the repo_path)
โ”‚   โ””โ”€โ”€ solution.py
โ””โ”€โ”€ grader/        # standalone Python package
    โ”œโ”€โ”€ pyproject.toml
    โ””โ”€โ”€ src/<task>_grader/
        โ”œโ”€โ”€ __init__.py
        โ””โ”€โ”€ grader.py     # class Grader(TaskGrader): ...

The packaged form is the only supported form. The package gives the grader its own venv and ships everything the eval needs โ€” grader code, helper modules, and hidden data (see "Hidden data" below).

CORAL Quickstart

CORAL Quickstart explains what CORAL does and when to use it, then walks through installing the CLI, registering a runtime, and scaffolding a `.coral_workspace/` for a codebase you want optimized. Use it to get from zero to a validated CORAL task and launch point.

Coral Debug

Coral Debug verifies and debugs changes to CORAL itself, with the smallest repro loop for each area like grader, daemon, CLI, hooks, manager, workspace, hub, template, config, and web. Use it when editing code under coral/ or investigating a CORAL bug.

Coral Extend

Coral Extend adds new components to the CORAL framework itself, such as agent runtimes, CLI commands, hooks, config fields, bundled templates, or grader infrastructure. Use it when changing the package internals, not for per-task graders or debugging existing code.
