WatchPoint is a simulated‑user system that generates and runs diagnostic scripts against a live web application, producing structured observations to guide coding model retries. Unlike prior methods that rely on screenshots or non‑executable metrics, WatchPoint operates on Web‑Bench—a benchmark of 50 multi‑file web projects with 1,000 sequential tasks verified by deterministic end‑to‑end tests. It recovers 57.6% of diagnosed tasks, matching a human tester’s 54.5% recovery rate, and identifies when such simulated feedback is beneficial or should be withheld.

arXiv:2606. 30573v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce SWE-Interact, a new testbed for evaluating coding agents on multi-turn, interactive, user-driven software engineering tasks.
The paper presents a systematic analysis of five state‑of‑the‑art automated program repair agents, tracing their decision‑making across 500 real‑world repair tasks. It finds that while the agents perform well on simple fixes, they struggle with logic‑intensive bugs, often producing verbose, overfitted patches that pass tests without addressing root causes. Key bottlenecks identified include poor test generation, limited regression test selection, and reliance on primitive tooling without access to debuggers or advanced program analysis tools.

arXiv:2607. 16345v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern agentic systems increasingly rely on skills: installable packages of natural language and code that teach an LLM agent to perform a domain task.
arXiv:2608. 03689v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models are increasingly capable of synthesizing executable frontend projects, yet existing benchmarks still treat web generation as a static evaluation problem.
