Earlier quoted context omitted.

So this has to be a meaningful PR for the open source repository? You can't just invent arbitrary coding challenges? This seems like trying to get free code contributions with a weird sort of gambling mechanic attached.

Nothing is free, of course, since we transparently pay per task (and as previously stated, the pay is very generous). There are certainly guidelines for what kinds of tasks you can submit to our platform, but beyond that, you can make any verifiable coding task in any of our qualifying open-source repositories. We also definitely do not require you to write new code into the repo. As I said, you can adapt existing me…

How do we know in advance if something it going to be hard enough?

For example I have a bunch of closed PRs on my Vibe-Prolog project that took multiple attempts to get right: https://github.com/nlothian/Vibe-Prolog/pulls?q=is%3Apr+is%3...

As a specific example: https://github.com/nlothian/Vibe-Prolog/pull/214 which implements https://github.com/nlothian/Vibe-Prolog/issues/204

I'd be very interested if it is eligible!
