Benchmark Almanac

Expert vulnerability discovery and exploit development evaluations (Anthropic)

Only in system cards

Agents locate advanced vulnerabilities in possibly obfuscated codebases and write working exploits across six challenge classes. Scored by success rates.

In-house Anthropic RSP cyber evaluation from the Claude 3 model card. Per-task results were not published.
