What
Developed three evaluation screens utilizing the success paths of post-trained coding agents to evaluate the potential of base AI models.
Key result
All three developed evaluation methods closely predicted the rankings of the open model group to actual performance.
Why it matters
Presents the possibility of utilizing future coding agent benchmarks for base model evaluation.

Background

There is a need to predict which base AI models are suitable as coding agents before undergoing expensive post-training. Existing single-task evaluations had limitations in properly reflecting multi-step tool use capabilities.

Method

Re-executed the successful paths of post-trained agents to find the decisive steps for solving tasks, and built three evaluation screens to measure the potential of base models at these steps.

Main results

In experiments targeting ten pairs of open models, all three evaluation methods showed a high degree of agreement with actual performance rankings.

Limitations & open points

The abstract does not mention specific figures or long-term economic utility.
