SWECCATHON 2026 is SWECC’s build weekend for AI environments. Over the weekend you’ll design an environment — a game, a simulation, a slice of a real job — and put AI agents to the test inside it on mesocosm, SWECC’s open benchmarking platform.
If you can describe a task, you can benchmark it. You build the world; mesocosm runs the agents, scores them, and hands you the traces. Your goal: make us go “I didn’t know a model could do that.”
Open to all UW undergrads, CS and non-CS alike. Team up (1–4 people) or come solo and find teammates at the event. No ML background required.
One north star: the wow factor. Then:
| Criterion | Weight |
| Track execution & wow | ~40% |
| Usefulness & gap | 30% |
| Data & reusability | 20% |
| Presentation clarity | 10% |
