arXiv:2607. 08691v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Repository-level code generation requires implementing target functions while accounting for complex cross-file dependencies and project-specific conventions.

arXiv:2607. 24882v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern coding agents are usually evaluated by whether they eventually produce a correct patch, but patch generation depends on an earlier context-acquisition stage: finding the repository files needed for the task.

arXiv:2607. 24884v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Repository-level code generation relies on heterogeneous evidence whose relevance, compatibility, and completeness are inherently uncertain.

arXiv:2601. 19697v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Repository-level code completion remains a challenging task for existing code large language models (code LLMs) due to their limited understanding of repository-specific context and domain knowledge.

arXiv:2505. 13353v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed for understanding large codebases, but whether they understand operational semantics of long code context or rely on pattern matching shortcuts remains unclear.

arXiv:2607. 01916v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model agents can repair real repository issues, but they often spend large context budgets on whole-file reads, broad searches, and long terminal outputs where useful evidence is mixed with irrelevant code and logs.

arXiv:2607. 08981v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM-generated code often compiles, passes tests, and appears correct, yet breaks once deployed.

The paper introduces MCR-Bench, a benchmark for realistic multi‑round code review that includes 2,269 real‑world tasks across five programming languages, each annotated with fine‑grained defect information and dynamic state labels. Experiments with mainstream large language models show limited overall performance, especially as interaction rounds increase, and reveal that model accuracy varies by defect type and severity. Error analysis identifies key failure mechanisms such as cross‑round temporal misalignment and insufficient long‑range memory.

arXiv:2606. 03657v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models for code generation often need to use APIs that are absent from their pretraining data.

arXiv:2605. 17965v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Bug localization remains a key bottleneck for large language model (LLM)-based software maintenance, where accurately identifying faulty code is essential for debugging, root cause analysis, triage, and automated program repair (APR).
By Md Afif Al Mamun, Gias Uddin
Context lengths of language models (LMs) have dramatically increased, driven by the demands for in-context learning, self-improvement, and long-horizon agentic workflows. Existing long-context corpora, however, are dominated by books, academic articles, and code repositories, which are finite resources and often scarce in long-distance dependencies.
arXiv:2608. 09072v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language model-powered coding agents are increasingly used to modify existing code repositories, for example, by adding features or fixing bugs.
