FrontierPhysics - Overall Pass@1: leaderboard

FrontierPhysics (You and colleagues, 2026; arXiv:2611.06910v1) measures end-to-end physics research on 56 physicist-authored tasks across nine domains. Agents review literature, plan and run research, then submit numerical outputs and a scientific manuscript. This board reports Overall Pass@1: Percentage of all 168 rollouts passing every deterministic verifier and blocking rubric. There are three trials per task, 168 designated rollouts per configuration and a 10-hour cap per rollout. Missing outcomes remain failures/zero scores. Each row preserves its native Codex, Claude Code, Grok Build or Antigravity harness and inference effort; exact harness versions and deployment checkpoints are not disclosed. All results use task-set v0.1.

Metric: Percentage of all 168 rollouts passing every deterministic verifier and blocking rubric; v0.1, 10-hour cap per rollout; missing outcomes count as zero/failure; higher is better. Source: arxiv.org. Saturation forecast: Rough model projection: around 2026. 26 models tracked.
