The paper investigates whether large language model–based coding agents can automatically synthesize programs that solve generalized task and motion planning (TAMP) problems across diverse instances. Using Claude Code and Codex, the authors evaluate 980 generated programs on 100 held‑out environments from KinDER and PDDLStream, achieving mean success rates between 56 % and 95 %—higher than hand‑engineered planners and other baselines—while requiring an order of magnitude less computation per instance. The study demonstrates that coding agents can calibrate physical models, test edge cases, and refine strategies, suggesting they are a strong baseline for generalized TAMP.

The paper investigates whether coding agents can automate the synthesis of programs that solve generalized Task and Motion Planning (TAMP) problems. By evaluating Claude Code and Codex on 28 simulated environments, the authors find that these agents outperform hand-engineered planners and other baselines, achieving higher success rates and lower computation per instance. The agents also demonstrate adaptive behaviors such as calibrating physical models and refining strategies during interaction.

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.
