What progress have you made since your last update?

I worked on this project for 7 months instead of the 2 months I had written in the project, and prioritized building features and fixing bugs in inspect_ai. When I was blocked or didn’t have other things to work on, I completed open issues in inspect_evals.

I authored 56 merged PRs in Inspect repos:

• 28 in inspect_ai

• 25 in inspect_evals

• 2 in inspect_swe

• 1 in inspect_scout
  

Some features I contributed:

• Support for Gemini Computer Use

• Score editing

• S3 conditional writes

• Google agent bridge

• Gemini CLI agent

• Sandbox configuration using Compose files

• API key refreshing

• Adapter for Harbor evals
  

Examples I produced that researchers can refer to:

• Running Inspect evals (in Docker containers) inside an Inspect eval

• How to intercept, modify, and control HTTP requests made by an agent
  

Meridian Labs based their Inspect Harbor package on my Harbor task implementation.

I also developed my own package Inspect Modal Sandboxes. Meridian based their Modal Sandbox in their Inspect Sandboxes package on this.

I also wrote docs for features and looked into bugs, for which I didn’t author merged PRs.

What are your next steps?

1. Continue to work with Inspect maintainers on new, substantial features in Inspect repos.

2. Secure long-term funding.

Is there anything others could help you with?

Donating another 10k for the next month until long-term funding is confirmed.

I really want to continue doing this work and have been doing it unpaid for the past 5 months until I secure longer-term funding. I’ve updated the project for a third $10,000.

If any other grant meets my funding needs, I’ll coordinate to avoid double funding.
