Researchers from Alibaba and several Asian universities have created a new coding agent test called Co-Design Bench from real user requests. Even the best model was able to fully solve only 26.4 percent of the tasks.
A benchmark based on actual requests shows that programming agents can solve much of a task, but they still leave incomplete assignments often: even the best evaluated model correctly completed only 26.4% of the tasks.
AI coding agents still need human cleanup on nearly three out of four tasks in a real-world test
Alibaba's new coding-agent benchmark, Co-Design Bench, tests AI agents on real user requests that already tripped them up in practice. Even GPT-6 Astra, the top performer, fully solves only 26.4 percent of tasks. On older benchmarks, the same models score above 99 percent.
