@VmaxAI ↗What is unix-ctf?
unix-ctf procedurally generates capture-the-flag tasks in Linux containers to train and evaluate shell agents' Unix competence, scored by solve rate on recovering hidden flags.
Security mostly
“unix-ctf is a procedural generator of capture-the-flag tasks for shell agents.”

Tier B
Established: 15 or more models scored, or curated RL directories rate it.
How much stands behind a tier: usage, who backs it, a confirmed line from its own site or paper, and a clear read on X. High with three of the four, medium with two, low otherwise.
- built by Vmax
- in curated RL directories (5 pts)
How we got to tier B
- Adoption: built by Vmax. Tier C.
- Not yet read on X.
- In curated RL directories: 5 points, a floor of B. Raised to B.
- Confirmed: a line from its own site or paper places it.
A clear view on X moves a tier one step up or down; most entries don't move. How tiers work.
