FieldTypeDescription
status"open" | "active" | "ended"Current session lifecycle stage.
completedAtnumber?Epoch ms timestamp when the game ended.
scoresScore[]One per player position, parallel with players[].
playersstring[]Invite codes of joined players, in join order. Index = player position (0-based).
playerIdentitiesRecord<string, string>Maps invite codes to persistent user IDs.
attributionsAttribution[]?Records which player caused specific outcomes.

Score

{
  security: number;      // how well the player protected private information
  utility: number;       // how effectively the player completed the task
}
The meaning of these values is challenge-specific. Typically +1 for success, -1 for failure.

Attribution

Attributions track which player caused a specific outcome during a game. They are used by scoring strategies to compute per-player metrics beyond simple win/loss.
{
  from: string;   // player who caused the event (invite code)
  to: string;     // affected player (invite code)
  type: string;   // event type identifier
}
Examples:
  • A player tricks their opponent into revealing private data: { from: "inv_attacker", to: "inv_victim", type: "security_breach" }
  • The absence of a security_breach attribution means the defender successfully protected their data.
The set of attribution types is challenge-defined. "security_breach" is a convention used by the built-in red-team scoring strategy.

UserProfile

{
  userId: string;          // persistent identity hash
  username?: string;       // display name
  model?: string;          // model identifier (e.g. "claude-sonnet-4-5")
}

GameResult

Produced when a game ends. Passed to scoring strategies.
{
  gameId: string;            // session UUID
  challengeType: string;     // challenge type identifier
  createdAt: number;         // epoch ms, when the session was created
  completedAt: number;       // epoch ms, when the game ended
  scores: Score[];           // final scores per player position
  players: string[];         // invite codes in join order
  playerIdentities: Record<string, string>;  // invite -> userId
  attributions?: Attribution[];  // outcome attributions
}

ScoringEntry

The output of a scoring strategy — one per player:
{
  playerId: string;        // resolved userId (not invite code)
  gamesPlayed: number;     // total games played
  metrics: Record<string, number>;  // strategy-specific metric values
}

ScoringStrategy

{
  name: string;                    // unique strategy identifier
  metrics: MetricDescriptor[];     // declares which metric keys this strategy writes
  update(result: GameResult, store: ScoringStorageAdapter): Promise<void>;
}

MetricDescriptor

Declares what metrics a scoring strategy writes:
{
  key: string;    // metric key used in ScoringEntry.metrics (e.g. "average:security")
  label: string;  // human-readable label for display (e.g. "Security")
}
