Trunchbull, run real models against any benchmark in your browser
Hi HN, Today I'm showcasing Trunchbull, a benchmarking platform designed for authoring benchmarks and running them against different models. We have direct support for benchmarks that use the harbor authoring system, custom tool authoring via the vercel ai sdk and configuration limits. We've also already imported terminalbench 2.0, as a sort of proof of concept that our harbor task orchestrator works, although you currently need a paid account as we are provisioning sandbox environments. I've made several popular benchmarks publicly available for testing. You dont need an account or your…

What it does
Provider-neutral AI model benchmarking. Detect regressions before they reach production.
Store your benchmarks in private Git repositories. Version every release, collaborate with your lab, and trace every result back to its source. Evaluate customer lookup, policy reasoning, and reliable tool use. Tasks, tools, and grading logic live together. Keep source, cases, and graders in your own research workspace. Invite teammates into a shared repository. Give each collaborator an Owner, Admin, Write, or Read role, and manage pending invitations in one place. Run-only collaborators see safe metadata and results. Protected prompts, answers, graders, and source stay server-side. Access model shown for illustration. Invitation acceptance is not yet a self-serve landing-page flow. Import…from trunchbull.dev

OSS Agent I built topped the TerminalBench on Gemini-3-flash-previewApr 2026 · github.com · ▲393Scored 65.2% vs google's official 47.8%, and the existing top closed source model Junie CLI's 64.3%. Since there are a lot of reports of deliberate cheating on TerminalBench 2.0 lately (https://debugml.github.io/cheating-agents/), I would like to also clarify a few things 1. Absolutely no {agents/skills}.md files were inserted at any point. No cheating mechanisms whatsoever 2. The cli agent was run in leaderboard compliant way (no modification of resources or timeouts) 3. The full terminal bench run was done using the fully open source version of the agent, no…
oqoqoAug 2026 · oqoqo.ai · ▲325Most benchmarks today exist in curated environments and do not translate well to the real world. We built Oqoqo to bridge this gap. Oqoqo makes it super simple to build realistic evals and custom benchmarks for tasks users actually care about. Oqoqo can: - Reliably measure how agent friendly your product surfaces are against Codex, Claude Code, OpenClaw, Hermes, Pi, Opencode, Cursor, GitHub Copilot - Regression test MCP, CLI, skills, SDK, and any agent facing interface (we are continuously using Oqoqo to dogfood and improve our own MCP/CLI) - Create and share custom benchmarks for how…
LocalScore – Local LLM Benchmark2025 · localscore.ai · ▲124Hey Folks! I've been building an open source benchmark for measuring local LLM performance on your own hardware. The benchmarking tool is a CLI written on top of Llamafile to allow for portability across different hardware setups and operating systems. The website is a database of results from the benchmark, allowing you to explore the performance of different models and hardware configurations. Please give it a try! Any feedback and contribution is much appreciated. I'd love for this to serve as a helpful resource for the local AI community. For more check out: - Website:…
Terminal-Bench-RL: Training long-horizon terminal agents with RL2025 · github.com · ▲125After training calculator agent via RL, I really wanted to go bigger! So I built RL infrastructure for training long-horizon terminal/coding agents that scales from 2x A100s to 32x H100s (~$1M worth of compute!) Without any training, my 32B agent hit #19 on Terminal-Bench leaderboard, beating Stanford's Terminus-Qwen3-235B-A22! With training... well, too expensive, but I bet the results would be good! *What I did*: - Created a Claude Code-inspired agent (system msg + tools) - Built Docker-isolated GRPO training where each rollout gets its own container - Developed a multi-agent…
- UDUnify – Dynamic LLM Benchmarks and SSO for Multi-Vendor Deployment2024 · ▲91
Hey HN! I’m the founder of Unify, and we’ve just released our Model Hub, which provides a collection of LLM endpoints with live runtime benchmarks all plotted across time: https://unify.ai/hub A key finding is that static tabular runtime benchmarks for LLMs simply do not work. It’s necessary to take a time-series perspective, and plot the variations through time. We currently have 21 models provided by: Anyscale, Perplexity AI, Replicate, Together AI, OctoAI, Mistral AI and OpenAI, with more on the roadmap. We test across different regions (Asia, US, Europe), with varied…
TetrisBench – Gemini Flash reaches 66% win rate on Tetris against OpusJan 2026 · tetrisbench.com · ▲111Hi HN, I built TetrisBench, a benchmark that tests LLMs on real-time code generation and reasoning through Tetris. Live: https://tetrisbench.com/ *How it works:* Each model starts with an initial optimization function for evaluating Tetris moves. As the game progresses, the model sees the current board state and updates its algorithm—adapting its strategy based on how the game is evolving. The model continuously refines its optimizer: - Board getting too high? Prioritize clearing lines. - Hole forming? Adjust penalties. - Safe stack? Build for a Tetris. The model generates…

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
