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.

SpecFirst: Behavioral Specification Elicitation as a First-Class Step in Agent-Based Program Synthesis from Scratch

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.

WiseSpec: Requirements-Driven Agents for Code Generation

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.
