A vendor-neutral starter for deploying a disposable Kubernetes fixture, injecting faults, saving investigation records from any product, and scoring completed investigations with a configurable judge. Python 3.10+ is the only Python dependency. Kubernetes operations additionally need kubectl; local cluster creation needs Docker and kind.

Choose local kind or AWS EKS for your cluster, then select the 21-scenario full suite or six-scenario smoke fixture. Cluster type and scenario suite are separate choices.

Run commands from the Project Arena directory. Cluster setup, product integration, scenario execution, and scoring are separate steps; follow the sections below in order.

We compared Edge Delta’s native AI investigations, Grafana’s native AI investigations, and Claude using each platform’s observability CLI across 21 Kubernetes incident scenarios. edx provides access to Edge Delta; gcx provides access to Grafana. All final investigations were evaluated against the same incident facts and scoring rubric using GPT-6-Astra.
