Build defensive AI that finds threats, understands attacks, or helps fix vulnerabilities. Bring one useful idea to life and show a working project by the end of the day. Challenge Statement: Build agents that preserve what matters. Ship an autonomous agent that does real work on the open web. Your agent(s) need to take real action — publish, monitor, orchestrate, transact — grounded in truthful sources. Use 3+ sponsor tools. - What should your agent know before it writes? - As you build today, think about the context your agent is working with. What does it need to understand about the application? Which security boundaries could its changes affect? - And which decisions are you leaving it to guess?
