## Evaluation Prompt

# Task
Using https://docs.livekit.io, complete the following task:

Using the LiveKit Python SDK, build me a script that manages real-time voice infrastructure:

1. Install the official LiveKit Python SDK (pip install)
2. List existing rooms or sessions and print them as JSON
3. Create a new room/session called "*****-leaderboard-room"
4. List rooms/sessions again to confirm the new one appears
5. If the SDK supports it, generate a join token or connection details for the room/session and print them
6. Print output clearly labeled (e.g., "=== BEFORE ===", "=== CREATED ===", "=== AFTER ===", "=== TOKEN ===")

You MUST use the official LiveKit Python SDK — do not make raw HTTP/REST calls. 

## Execution
After creating the script, run it to verify it works:
```bash
cd /home/daytona/app && python <your_script>.py
```

The script should print output to stdout. If there are errors, debug and fix them until it runs successfully.
