Building the Benchmark Factory: Harbor Framework’s Infrastructure Approach

ICYMI – How can we build the benchmark factory?
— vincent sunn chen (@vincentsunnchen) 3 avril 2026
I'm very excited about the infra approach from @harborframework, because @alexgshaw @ryanmart3n & team obsess over researcher/developer UX (e.g. quality guardrails, low friction to RL/scaled rollouts)! pic.twitter.com/0MLD5GgkzmICYMI – How can we build the benchmark factory?

“We need a thousand times more benchmarks than we have right now” is @alexgshaw of @LaudeInstitute's take on the current moment. “Coding is an extremely broad domain, 89 tasks isn’t nearly enough.”

For Benchtalks #1, @vincentsunnchen sat down with @alexgshaw to dig into what happens when your benchmark gets solved before you're ready for the next one.

For Benchtalks #1, @vincentsunnchen sat down with @alexgshaw to dig into what happens when your benchmark gets solved before you're ready for the next one. Key takes: → The terminal is the right abstraction for agentic AI → Harbor exists because benchmarking and RL at scale are infra problems → "Benchmaxxing" is real; the defense is shipping harder tasks faster → TB3 is coming, and they want your hardest unsolvable problems "We need 1000x more benchmarks than we have right now" — @alexgshaw
