Summary

Exact prompt

# Marina berth occupancy queries at scale `input.json` (synthetic) has `bookings` ([start, end) integer minute pairs), `points` (integer times) and `ranges` ([l, r) pairs). Write `solve.py` (Python 3 standard library only); `python solve.py input.json answer.json`. One hidden input has **150,000 bookings and about 300,000 queries and must finish within 20 seconds** (other runs: 30 s). Answers must be exact. ## Rules 1. A booking with start > end is invalid: count it in `invalid_bookings` and ignore it. A booking with start == end is ignored (not invalid). Duplicate bookings count separately. 2. Occupancy at integer time t = number of valid bookings with start <= t < end. 3. `points`: occupancy at each time, in input order. 4. `ranges`: for each [l, r): if l >= r the answer is null; otherwise the maximum occupancy over all integer t with l <= t < r. In input order. 5. `peak` = maximum occupancy over all times (0 if there are no valid bookings); `peak_first_time` = the earliest time it is reached (null if peak is 0). ## answer.json `{"invalid_bookings", "peak", "peak_first_time", "points": [...], "ranges": [...]}` ## Scoring Hidden checks (partial credit; all must pass; all exact): `invalid_and_peak`, `point_queries`, `range_max_queries` on the given input; `fresh_run_1`, `fresh_run_2`; `big_150k_bookings_300k_queries_20s`.

The rules are simple and a brute-force answer is correct on small inputs, so separation comes from choosing a sweep plus range-maximum structure and getting the half-open boundaries right. Original benchmark task written for usecaserank.com. Headless, offline run on a reproducible fixture. Cost shown is a list-price API-equivalent estimate (run on a ChatGPT subscription, not billed).

Success criteria: 1. invalid_and_peak 2. point_queries 3. range_max_queries 4. fresh_run_1 5. fresh_run_2 6. big_150k_bookings_300k_queries_20s

Setup notes: Use Case Scout batch12 case m08-berth-occupancy-queries (offline fixture). Prepared with batch12/prepare.sh on the shared box; only TASK.md + starting files were copied to the agent machine, hidden key/tests stayed on the box. Prompt = TASK.md verbatim on stdin. Flags: --json -s workspace-write --skip-git-repo-check --ephemeral --ignore-user-config --ignore-rules -C <workdir>. Scored on the box with the scout's scorer: `python score.py WORKDIR KEYDIR`. Single run, no retries. User-level AGENTS.md (846 bytes, sha256 83ec4fe50da8) may have been in context; --ignore-user-config does not document excluding it. Serving model not confirmed: requested via -m; the event log does not echo the serving model id. Price source is secondary (pricing.json verification='secondary', https://www.actuia.com/en/news/ai-api-pricing-in-october-2026-050-to-50-for-output/), not an official OpenAI price page. Score: 6/6. Cost is an ESTIMATE: measured tokens x pricing.json list price (ChatGPT plan, nothing billed); input_tokens include cached reads; output_tokens include reasoning tokens. Tool calls 4 (1 failed, recovered). Single run.

Estimated cost List-price estimate; not actually billed.

Reproduce this run

  1. Use the use case prompt on the use case page.
  2. Same setup: GPT-6.1 Sol (openai/gpt-6.1-sol, effort default (no reasoning-effort override) · thinking on) via Codex CLI 0.163.0 (codex exec --json), cloud.
  3. It counts as a success only if it meets every success criterion: 1. invalid_and_peak 2. point_queries 3. range_max_queries 4. fresh_run_1 5. fresh_run_2 6. big_150k_bookings_300k_queries_20s
  4. Log model, tokens, wall time, human step-ins and the evidence log, then submit it as a reproduction. A different model? Submit a head-to-head rerun.
