LLM-integrated applications blend natural language prompts with program code, and much of their runtime behavior originates in the prompt layer rather than in the code itself. Existing complexity metrics, however, operate solely at the code level and therefore overlook this behavioral logic entirely.

arXiv:2508. 16131v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Code completion entails the task of providing missing tokens given a surrounding context.
arXiv:2609.37405v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used for software engineering tasks that require understanding existing source code, including behavior...
arXiv:2606. 00308v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large-language-model code generation has shifted from single-shot prompting to multi-agent orchestrations - analyst, coder, tester, and debugger pipelines - and is evaluated almost exclusively on functional correctness.
arXiv:2606. 08840v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Code generation models are typically compared using compact execution benchmarks and aggregate pass rates, but such summaries obscure how performance varies across programming languages, problem families, and failure modes.
Complexity measured from generated code is failure-dependent: a difficult prompt can yield a short failing program and be assigned low output complexity. We introduce a six-dimension prompt-side struc...
arXiv:2607. 18642v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Mined code corpora are abundant but uncontrolled: a snippet's semantics, surface "messiness," and difficulty are whatever the wild contained; there is no known-optimal reference to grade against; and any public sample may already sit in a model's training set.
arXiv:2607. 08981v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM-generated code often compiles, passes tests, and appears correct, yet breaks once deployed.
arXiv:2607. 03691v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Coding agents, autonomous systems that use large language models (LLMs) to resolve software engineering tasks, rely on agentic scaffolding: a middleware layer in between a developer and a large language model that orchestrates system prompts, tool execution, context management, and iterative reasoning loops.
arXiv:2607. 03691v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Coding agents, autonomous systems that use large language models (LLMs) to resolve software engineering tasks, rely on agent harness: a middleware layer in between a developer and a large language model that orchestrates system prompts, tool execution, context management, and iterative reasoning loops.
SpecMine is a large-scale corpus that documents Spec-Driven Development (SDD) artifacts in public GitHub repositories. It includes a broad census of 470,795 spec files from 73,030 repositories linked to 17 tools, a focused census of 98,574 Kiro layout files from 12,910 repositories, and a sweep of 5,992 pull requests across 581 repositories that modify specs. The dataset provides enriched metadata, full commit histories, parsed document structures, and over 2.4 million typed references connecting specs to code, sibling documents, PRs, branches, and issues.
The paper introduces ADFD‑Migrate, a method that extracts a latent declarative representation of code—an annotated data‑flow diagram (ADFD)—to aid large‑scale repository migration. By using an LLM to infer the source ADFD from repository context and guiding target‑language generation with dependency‑aware chunking, the approach improves porting soundness and completeness. Evaluated on 50 Fortran repositories, the system achieves high behavioral agreement and a superior migration outcome index compared to baseline translation methods.
