Could you build this?
Partial The lab shell (local cluster provisioning, fault injection, grading harness) is buildable with AI-assisted coding, but credible Kubernetes failure scenarios and fair grading rubrics need real platform-engineering expertise.
What it would actually take: Build on kind or k3d with a scenario engine that applies fault manifests and runs automated checks against cluster state. The hard part is authoring realistic, production-shaped failure scenarios and grading criteria that reflect actual SRE practice, which requires experienced Kubernetes operators. Testing these scenarios reliably across cluster versions also takes significant engineering time.
