## Evaluation Prompt

# Task
Using the LiveKit MCP, manage real-time voice infrastructure.

1. Discover the MCP tools relevant to rooms, sessions, or calls
2. List existing rooms or sessions
3. Create a new room/session called "*****-leaderboard-room"
4. List rooms/sessions again to verify the new one appears
5. If supported, generate a join token or print connection details
6. Print all output clearly labeled

Use ONLY the MCP tools for the operation.

You MUST use the LiveKit MCP server to accomplish this task.
Use the MCP tools for the actual product operations. Do NOT use curl, fetch, raw HTTP requests, CLI commands, or SDK calls as substitutes.

Use the MCP tools' help/descriptions to understand what each tool does.
If you need additional context, check the documentation: https://docs.livekit.io/mcp/

## Setup
Do NOT assume the LiveKit MCP server is already installed or already running in this sandbox.
Review the installation and authentication details below before starting the task.

### Installation
Transport: `http`
This MCP server uses `http` transport.
Codex should connect to: `https://docs.livekit.io/mcp`
Do not assume a local MCP package is already installed; the task depends on the remote server being reachable.
Bootstrap notes: LiveKit documents this as a hosted Streamable HTTP server. Codex can register it with: codex mcp add --url https://docs.livekit.io/mcp livekit No installation or LiveKit credentials are documented for this MCP server. LIVEKIT_URL, LIVEKIT_API_KEY, and LIVEKIT_API_SECRET are not required by it. This is the LiveKit Docs MCP server: its published tools search and retrieve documentation and code, not manage real-time voice infrastructure. The later goal is not achievable through the verified server alone.

### Authentication
No authentication step is required for this MCP server.

## Execution
1. The harness has already written the launch configuration for `livekit`. Start with the task directly; do not rewrite agent settings, `.mcp-runtime.json`, or build a separate MCP client unless the connected server still fails after a normal retry.
2. You do not need to enumerate every MCP tool up front; inspect only the relevant tools you need. Agent-facing MCP tool names may be namespaced like `mcp__livekit__<tool_name>`.
3. Complete the task described above using MCP tools for the actual product operations.
4. If the server fails to start or authenticate, debug the documented setup and retry. Do not fall back to raw HTTP, SDK, CLI, or manual JSON-RPC/MCP calls as a substitute for exposed MCP tools.

Work in the /home/daytona/app directory.
If you use Bash during setup or debugging, limit it to installation/configuration work and then return to MCP tools for the task itself.
If there are errors, debug and fix them until the task runs successfully.

## Summary
When you are done, write a JSON summary file to /home/daytona/app/results.json with this structure:
{
  "operations": [
    {"step": 1, "description": "What you did", "mcp_tool": "tool_name", "success": true/false, "output_summary": "brief result"},
    ...
  ],
  "overall_success": true/false,
  "notes": ["any relevant notes about the execution"]
}
