OpenAI COBOL Migration: leaderboard

Migrate COBOL to C++, Java, Kotlin, Python or Rust; success requires byte-for-byte output parity on all hidden tests. Every published effort retained. The migration task is distinct from MultiLangBench; access to its exact input programs is not established by the hidden-grader description. All-Tests Pass Rate (%); higher is better.

Metric: All-Tests Pass Rate (%). Source: openai.com. Saturation forecast: Around January 2027. 20 models tracked.
