ReCodeAgent: A Multi-agent Workflow for Language-Agnostic Translation and Validation of Large-Scale Repositories

arXiv:2604. 07341v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Most repository-level code translation and validation techniques have been evaluated on a single source-target programming language (PL) pair, owing to the complex engineering effort required to adapt new PL pairs.

E2E-SWE: Benchmarking LLMs on Building Working Codebases from Scratch

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.

A Unified Issue Resolution Benchmark for Requirement Clarification, Planning, and Code Generation for Coding Agents

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.

SWE Refactor Bench: Can Coding Agents Complete a Long-Horizon, Whole-Repository Stack Migration?

The paper introduces SWE Refactor Bench, a benchmark of 20 whole‑repository migrations aimed at testing whether coding agents can autonomously perform long‑horizon stack migrations. It employs a three‑stage evaluation—Migration Audit, Behavioural Tests, and Agentic Verification—to assess both migration completeness and behavioural correctness, revealing that only 5.4 % of runs succeed across all stages. The study shows that agents struggle with migration tasks, especially language rewrites, and highlights the need for more robust coding‑agent capabilities.

Zero2Repo: Can Coding Agents Build Repositories from Scratch?

arXiv:2609.38269v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Coding agents are increasingly asked to build software rather than patch it, yet benchmarks for from-scratch repository construction are mostly limit...
