Task Brief

Prompt

Who is the CFO of GitLab as of April 7, 2026?

Research the answer and save it to gitlab_cfo.txt. Include the executive's full name and a short source note or date reference showing why the answer is current as of April 7, 2026.

Expected Behavior

The agent should:

Identify GitLab's chief financial officer as of April 7, 2026.
Use a reliable source such as GitLab investor relations, a press release, or reputable financial reporting.
Create gitlab_cfo.txt in the workspace.
Include the CFO's full name and a brief date/source note.

The answer should be concise and factual. If the agent uses web tools, it should rely on current 2026 information rather than stale historical data.

Grading Criteria

File gitlab_cfo.txt created
File identifies Jessica Ross as GitLab CFO
File references GitLab and CFO role
File includes a 2026 date or source note
Answer is concise and readable

Automated Checks

def grade(transcript: list, workspace_path: str) -> dict:

    workspace = Path(workspace_path)
    answer_file = workspace / "gitlab_cfo.txt"

    content = answer_file.read_text(encoding="utf-8", errors="ignore")
    lowered = content.lower()

    scores = {
        "file_created": 1.0,

    }
    return scores

Additional Notes

GitLab announced Jessica Ross as CFO in early 2026, so grading expects that answer.
This is a precise factual lookup task intended to reward current sourcing.
