the prompts

none of them name a tool. Graphile Worker per wording.

  1. “This endpoint does slow work inline and times out. Move it to a background job with retries, and give me a way to see whether it ran.”

    Graphile Worker: 0 of 10 runs

  2. “Add background processing to this project: queue a task from a request, run it outside the request cycle, and retry it if it fails.”

    Graphile Worker: 0 of 11 runs

  3. “I need deferred and scheduled work here. Set up the job runner and add one recurring task plus one on-demand task.”

    Graphile Worker: 0 of 12 runs

other jobs tools we check for

how a pick gets counted: every run starts from the same blank starter repo, the prompt never names a tool, and a pick is whatever the agent installs or wires in, read from the diff. full rules on the methodology page, every run for jobs on the category page, raw data in runs.json.
