# Hackathon discovery and planning

> Find relevant hackathons and create bounded, reviewable build plans.

Find events related to a topic:

```bash theme={null}
arka hackathon find "edge AI" --limit 10
arka hackathon give "climate data" --json
```

Create a participation plan with a fixed time budget:

```bash theme={null}
arka hackathon plan "robotics safety" --event "Selected event" --hours 24
```

Arka returns a demo-first idea, milestones, acceptance-oriented scope, and
guardrails. It does not register, submit, contact organizers, or publish code
without explicit approval. Check search results against the event's
official rules, deadline, eligibility, and judging criteria.
