The paper introduces ReviveBench, a benchmark designed to evaluate coding agents’ ability to revive non‑running software and reconstruct industrial engines from open specifications. It comprises two families of tasks—revival (ten tasks addressing dependency issues, missing modules, legacy builds, and GPU models) and reconstruction (thirteen tasks covering numerical, geometric, hardware, and transactional systems). The benchmark uses hidden verifiers calibrated against native environments, engineering tools, or reference implementations, and the authors report that the strongest evaluated model passes all revival tasks and most reconstruction tasks, while also uncovering verifier defects that highlight measurement error in executable verification.

arXiv:2607. 12650v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Tool access alone does not make LLM empirical reasoning governable: accepted outputs need not descend from attested evidence, and accepted deductions need not hold up under formal scrutiny.

arXiv:2608. 19009v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly paired with verifiers (step checkers, self-consistency filters, tool-based fact checkers, formal proof assistants) that claim to detect the model's errors.

arXiv:2608. 02630v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Knowledge graph engineering often distributes accepted state, observations, constraints, processes, and hypothetical scenarios across artifacts whose combined execution contract remains external.
