MulFCoder: Framework-conditioned Multi-agent for MLLM-based Multi-framework Front-end Code Generation

MulFCoder is a framework-conditioned multi-agent system designed to generate runnable front‑end code from UI screenshots across multiple frameworks such as React, Vue, and Angular. It orchestrates four specialized agents—Grounder, Planner, Writer, and Judger—to construct element tables, build a DOM‑like layout tree, produce framework‑specific file contracts, and enforce constraints that prevent drift and deadlocks. Experiments show that MulFCoder significantly improves compilation success rates and reduces framework‑specific errors, especially for Angular.

ChatDev 2.0: A No-Code Multi-Agent Platform for Developing Everything

ChatDev 2.0, also called DevAll, is a no-code platform that lets users build, run, and inspect heterogeneous multi‑agent systems (MAS) powered by large language models. It combines a declarative executable graph abstraction with a cycle‑aware execution engine, enabling representation and execution of dynamic, cyclic interactions among diverse agents. The integrated visual interface allows users to author, monitor, and inspect MAS—including human‑in‑the‑loop steps—without writing code, and experiments show it matches state‑of‑the‑art MAS performance across three tasks.

Multi-step SWE: Can Coding Agents Keep Building on Their Own Code Over Long Horizons?

The paper introduces Multi-step SWE, a benchmark consisting of 69 software engineering tasks that require a coding agent to perform 5–15 sequential, multi-hour engineering requests on a single codebase. Each step builds on the code produced in the previous step, making early design decisions and errors propagate throughout the chain. The benchmark covers four engineering work families, nine programming languages, and includes both from-scratch builds and existing open-source projects, with each step verified against a source of truth. Across nine state‑of‑the‑art models, the best achieves only an 18.5% solve rate, and 38 tasks remain unsolved by any model.

WebUIProof: Benchmarking WebUI Code Generators with UI-Agent Execution Harness

WebUIProof is a new execution‑oriented benchmark for WebUI code generation that supplies structured specifications and dense, executable interaction tests across general WebUIs and 3D interactive simulations. It employs a UI‑agent harness that runs tests in a headless browser using a plan–act–observe loop to locate DOM elements, perform actions, observe changes, and verify assertions. Evaluations on eight commercial LLMs reveal frequent interaction‑based failures, especially on 3D interfaces, and demonstrate that training compact models with RL rewards from these tests improves functional completion and reduces build failures.

MACGen: Toward Functionally Correct and Secure Code Generation via Multi-Agent Collaboration

MACGen is a multi‑agent framework designed to produce code that is both functionally correct and secure. It orchestrates four specialized agents—planner, security advisor, coder, and reviewer—each receiving only structured artifacts from the previous stage, thereby enforcing role specialization and limiting context bloat. The approach yields significant improvements on benchmark datasets, outperforming direct prompting by 19.61 and 10.57 percentage points on average.

Can Agents Design Libraries for Agents?

The paper introduces LibraryDesignBench, a benchmark that tests how well agents can design reusable libraries from specifications without prescribed designs. It evaluates libraries by measuring the correctness and simplicity of programs written by three different user agents across 242 programming problems in four languages. Findings show that while agents often replicate human-designed abstractions, downstream agents still tend to reimplement library features due to rigidity or usability issues, and that providing more prescriptive guidance improves reuse and program simplicity.
