Incident‑Arena is a new benchmark for AI coding agents focused on production incident response, featuring 20 tasks derived from real‑world open‑source software. Each task deploys a production application on an ephemerally created Kubernetes cluster, injects faults at various layers, and applies a sustained load profile. The benchmark introduces functional verifiers that maintain system‑level metrics while ensuring safe repairs, and shows that current frontier models achieve below 64.3% across the tasks, highlighting challenges in diagnosis, repair, and regression safety.
