AARRI-Bench (Mini-SWE-Agent) - Hands-on: leaderboard
AARRI-Bench (Act As a Real Research Intern, 2026) is a set of 82 hand-crafted AI-research tasks graded by unit tests, testing whether an agent harness and model behave like a careful human researcher. This board is the percentage of the hands-on tasks: coding, experimental setup and data processing solved in full with the Mini-SWE-Agent harness; higher is better.
Metric: Task success rate (%) under the 0/1 reward on the hands-on tasks: coding, experimental setup and data processing; Harbor containerized runs, Mini-SWE-Agent agent harness; a configuration's tasks without a valid run are left out of its denominator; higher is better.
