The benchmark consists of 15 tasks across three domains (SRE log analysis, software engineering, customer support), using synthetically injected failures with ground-truth labels. It scores Engine on four dimensions: trace classification, issue category assignment, existing issue attachment, and new issue grouping. Key lessons include the value of synthetic data for eval calibration, the importance of clean traces for false positive control, and cross-domain testing to verify the model understands abstract failure modes rather than domain-specific patterns. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
