Evo-Bench: leaderboard

Evo-Bench (Huang et al., 2026) measures harness evolution: within 20 iterations the evaluated model rewrites a minimal CodeAct agent harness from validation feedback, and a fixed DeepSeek-V4-Flash policy then runs the frozen harness on held-out tasks. Score is the mean held-out score over BrowseComp, HLE, GDPval, APEX-Agents and Claw-Eval tasks, in percent; higher is better.

Metric: Held-out score (%; the fixed DeepSeek-V4-Flash policy runs the harness the model evolved from a CodeAct seed within 20 iterations, 1,000 steps and 48 hours; mean of the five source benchmarks (BrowseComp, HLE, GDPval, APEX-Agents, Claw-Eval) over the 448-task evaluation suite; one run). Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Around 2028. 9 models tracked.
