QEncodeBench evaluates whether large language models can translate classical constraint problems into verified quantum phase oracles. The benchmark measures the correctness of generated circuits using an adversarial self‑validated verifier that checks full solution‑set equivalence while enforcing resource limits. Results show that models lacking a reasoning mode perform poorly, whereas enabling native reasoning improves accuracy tenfold; semantic errors dominate, and neuro‑symbolic pipelines close most gaps by delegating critical composition to deterministic procedures.

arXiv:2608. 12936v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As quantum computing progresses from proof-of-principle demonstrations toward practical utility, a significant impediment is the need to augment algorithmic feasibility with system-level optimization across heterogeneous hardware and software stacks.

The paper introduces Quantum‑Harbor, a virtual laboratory that lets AI agents interact with quantum systems in a controlled setting, enabling verification of their actions and conclusions. Using this platform, the authors created QIQCBench, a benchmark of 49 expert‑authored tasks covering calibration, control, error correction, compilation, sensing, and networking. Testing 17 state‑of‑the‑art agentic systems on QIQCBench revealed wide variation in verified performance, highlighting a gap between demonstrated capability and reliable operation and positioning Quantum‑Harbor as a foundation for measuring progress toward verified autonomy in quantum engineering.

As quantum computing progresses from proof-of-principle demonstrations toward practical utility, a significant impediment is the need to augment algorithmic feasibility with system-level optimization across heterogeneous hardware and software stacks. Quantum resource estimation (QRE) plays a central role in this transition, yet existing approaches remain largely compilation-heavy or domain-knowledge-guided symbolic annotations, and tightly coupled to long-term fault-tolerant assumptions, limiting their topical applicability.
