SWE-bench Bash Only Leaderboard
SWE-bench Bash Only runs the SWE-bench Verified issues through a minimal, single-tool bash agent — no specialised scaffolding — so the score reflects the model's own agentic coding ability rather than the harness around it. A cleaner, harder read on raw software-engineering skill.
