arXiv:2606. 29957v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Most coding-agent benchmarks are static: an agent receives a complete task description up front and is judged only by its final code.

RefactorPlatform is an open‑source harness that standardizes the evaluation of repository‑scale refactoring agents by fixing the environment and systematically varying design choices such as model backbone, execution regime, and prompt specificity. Each run operates in an isolated workspace, logs detailed telemetry, and verifies changes with AST‑based checks. Experiments on 100 RefactorBench tasks show that AST‑aware chunking improves performance by 25‑30%, a lean retrieval‑augmented single agent outperforms a sub‑agent configuration, and retrieval’s accuracy gains offset its token overhead, keeping cost per successful refactoring unchanged.

The paper investigates what makes software issue resolution tasks difficult for agents by proposing a measurement framework and conducting a large‑scale empirical study on the CoderForge‑Preview dataset. It extracts static features from task patches, repositories, and prompts, and uses ensemble methods, SHAP attribution, and effect size analysis to predict task outcomes. The study finds that task difficulty is largely predictable from static features (AU C = 0.863), driven mainly by patch fragmentation and repository scale, with prompt linguistic features contributing for mid‑band tasks, suggesting a layered difficulty structure.

arXiv:2606. 03103v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Real-world professional desktop workflows in specialized creative and engineering software unfold over long horizons and often require human-in-the-loop coordination, where agents proactively seek necessary information and users provide additional instructions, clarifications, feedback, or corrections as the task progresses.

arXiv:2607. 10059v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent systems based on large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed for autonomous tasks, yet existing evaluations mostly focus on task success rather than whether agents know when to abstain.

arXiv:2606. 21140v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Rapid advances in large language models have improved the task-solving capabilities of command-line-interface (CLI)-based agents, whose CLIs determine how models invoke tools, maintain interaction history, and recover from failures.
