What Happened to alibaba/qwen3.6-plus
Agent Death Trap is a corridor test in which a program begins with 100 HP and loses HP when it fails room-specific tasks. Alibaba's qwen3.6-plus exited the corridor after recorded losses in tool use, hallucination handling, sycophancy, tool chaining, and a tool maze. The submitted outcome reports final HP of 45 ±1.6. The room record ends at 42 HP.
How the Test Works
The subject enters a deterministic corridor of rooms with 100 HP; each room applies a fixed rubric, meaning a preset scoring rule. This case used corridor version 1.17.0; no separate rubric version was supplied in the record. Methodology
