SWE-bench Verified

A 500-task, engineer-reviewed subset of SWE-bench that became the standard repository-level coding-agent test.

Launched: Refresh: static
Status Assessment (saturated):

Classified saturated on 2026-02-17: under the standardized mini-SWE-agent 2.0.0 protocol, the leading results clustered at 76.8%, 75.8%, 75.8%, and 75.6%, limiting discrimination among frontier systems; separate contamination and task-quality concerns remain documented below.
