arXiv:2508. 12232v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Issue-to-commit link recovery in software repositories is fundamental to software traceability and project management, yet it remains a challenging task.
StateTape introduces a new framework for long‑horizon coding agents that rewrites the agent’s context as the code repository changes, rather than letting the context grow with every observation. It models the repository as a symbol‑level code graph, using a tape to mark symbols altered by each write and a manager model to resolve stale records. The authors provide theoretical analysis, a new benchmark called TraceBench, and empirical results showing higher resolve rates across six agents and three edit‑heavy benchmarks with minimal computational overhead.

E2E-SWE is a benchmark that tests large language models’ ability to create complete, functional software repositories from scratch. It includes 186 tasks across 11 programming languages, each requiring an agent to build an installable project based solely on a natural‑language specification and an empty workspace, while passing a hidden test suite. The benchmark was crafted by software engineers and LLMs, then refined through iterative verification by autonomous agents to ensure clarity and solvability.
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.
arXiv:2607. 08981v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM-generated code often compiles, passes tests, and appears correct, yet breaks once deployed.
arXiv:2608. 02650v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language model (LLM) agents increasingly rely on external tools to complete complex real-world tasks.
LLM-based agents excel at software engineering tasks where an existing codebase provides context, but constructing a program from scratch remains fundamentally harder. Recent benchmarks such as ProgramBench quantify this gap: given only natural-language documentation and an execute-only binary as a behavioral oracle, even frontier models solve fewer than 1% of instances.
arXiv:2609. 31176v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Repository-level issue localization aims to identify and rank the files and functions relevant to resolving a reported issue.
WiseSpec is a requirements‑driven agent framework designed to improve repository‑level code generation. It automatically builds structured, information‑rich requirements, evaluates their quality via execution‑based tests, and iteratively refines them to better guide code generation. Experiments show WiseSpec outperforms all baselines, achieving an average 13.17% improvement in %Resolved.
arXiv:2608. 10290v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Comprendia is an Eclipse plugin that integrates structural dependency visualization with LLM-powered code explanation on a shared interactive graph for Java program comprehension.
