coding-agent / rank 23 of 41 / cycle 04

Codebuff benchmark

A terminal agent that spreads a task over several specialised sub agents, which keeps the median low and occasionally produces two edits that disagree with each other. Three of the five recorded conflicts of that kind were caught by its own review step. Fast, cheap enough, and best on well bounded tasks rather than open ended ones.

What agent performance looked like in practice

A terminal agent that spreads a task over several specialised sub agents, which keeps the median low and occasionally produces two edits that disagree with each other. Three of the five recorded conflicts of that kind were caught by its own review step. Fast, cheap enough, and best on well bounded tasks rather than open ended ones.

Across 45 recorded executions this product met the published pass criterion cleanly 31 times, partially 7 times and failed 7 times. The rows above carry the reviewer note for every non clean outcome, which is the only way to tell a product that fails loudly from one that fails quietly.
