Hi @itssimrank. Thanks for your PR.

I'm waiting for a kubernetes-sigs member to verify that this patch is reasonable to test. If it is, they should reply with /ok-to-test on its own line. Until that is done, I will not automatically test new commits in this PR, but the usual testing commands by org members will still work.

Tip

We noticed you've done this a few times! Consider joining the org to skip this step and gain /lgtm and other bot rights. We recommend asking approvers on your previous PRs to sponsor you.

Once the patch is verified, the new status will be reflected by the ok-to-test label.

I understand the commands that are listed here.

Details

Instructions for interacting with me using PR comments are available here. If you have questions or suggestions related to my behavior, please file an issue against the kubernetes-sigs/prow repository.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull request expands contribution guidance and adds a roadmap for DevOps Bench and DevOps Arena. The roadmap covers evaluation, integrations, providers, task coverage, adversarial initiatives, and completed capabilities.

Changes

DevOps Bench roadmap documentation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Contribution tracks
CONTRIBUTING.md, README.md
Adds four contribution tracks and links the project roadmap and participation guidance.
Roadmap scope and planned initiatives
roadmap.md
Documents evaluation initiatives, harness and model integrations, provider support, leaderboard plans, and task-library expansion.
Arena plans and completed capabilities
roadmap.md
Documents DevOps Arena initiatives and lists completed evaluation, orchestration, CLI, integration, and provider capabilities.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 7cc2e

The roadmap documents Arena metrics without defining units or zero-case handling, which could lead to inconsistent or incomparable evaluation results. The change remains mergeable with explicit owner follow-up to clarify those definitions.

In `@roadmap.md`:
- Around line 28-31: Align the harness inventory across the roadmap: update the
“Expand Community Harness Support” entry, the support table, and the Completed
status list so they use the same complete set of supported harnesses, including
OpenClaw, Antigravity, Gemini CLI, Hermes, Claude Code, and Codex.
- Line 5: Update the provider-coverage claims in the roadmap overview and the
corresponding line around the provider interface to avoid asserting universal
present-tense support. Rephrase them as architecture goals or explicitly limit
validated coverage to the providers listed as completed, while preserving the
distinction between planned, in-progress, and validated providers.
- Line 11: Change the five top-level roadmap section headings, including “Core
Harness & Orchestration” and the sections at the other referenced locations,
from level-3 (`###`) to level-2 (`##`) so they match the `## Completed` heading
hierarchy.

- Reword the provider-coverage claims (intro + Infrastructure Providers
  section) as an architecture goal rather than a present-tense universal
  claim, consistent with AWS/Azure being planned and only GCP/Kind done.
- Use ## for all top-level roadmap sections, matching ## Completed.
- Wrap $/Uptime and $/Downtime in code spans so they render correctly.
- Rename the harness table's Cells column to Supported Models, and
  G-Flash/G-Pro to Gemini-Flash/Gemini-Pro for clarity and consistency.

- Add a vCluster Provider bullet to Infrastructure Providers (In Progress,
  matches 3 open upstream PRs).
- Add a Multi-Iteration Pass@k Scoring planned item under Core Harness
  (schema already supports it; iteration execution does not yet).
- Add verification-category detail to Task Library, and a new
  Fault-Injection Scenario Coverage (Agent vs. System) planned item,
  built on the completed chaos/ base.
- Reframe DevOps Arena as agent-vs-agent competitive evaluation: move
  Rogue Developer Simulation and Stealth Attacker & Compliance Security
  into the new fault-injection item, move Closed-Loop Self-Improvement
  there too (reworded to trigger off an injected fault rather than an
  exploit), and keep only Game-Theoretic Duel Framework in Arena.
- Update the top-level intro to match the new Bench vs. Arena framing.

In `@roadmap.md`:
- Around line 83-84: Update the “Game-Theoretic Duel Framework” metric
description to define whether $ represents monetary cost or token budget,
specify the time unit for uptime and downtime, and document the behavior when
either duration is zero before labeling these metrics standardized.
- Around line 21-22: Update the “Multi-Iteration Pass@k Scoring” roadmap entry
to explicitly state that multi-iteration execution and Pass@k aggregation remain
pending, including defining success thresholds and computing metrics such as
Pass@5 and Pass^5; retain the note that ResultRow supports continuous
outcome_score and grouping fields while build_rows() currently hard-codes
iteration=0.

- Remove Hermes, Claude Code, and Codex from the current harness x model
  support table (not actually implemented yet); name them explicitly as
  next targets under Expand Community Harness Support instead.
- Add a Gemini CLI row to the table (Gemini-Flash, Gemini-Pro only).
- Strengthen the Pass@k roadmap item to name both remaining pieces
  (multi-iteration execution and Pass@k aggregation/threshold logic),
  matching what's actually in build_rows()/aggregate.py today.
- Drop the undefined $/Uptime vs. $/Downtime notation from the
  Game-Theoretic Duel Framework item pending an actual metric design.
