MLS-Bench-Lite

MLS-Bench-Lite is a benchmark for how well a model works as an autonomous coding agent. The official description says: "MLS-Bench-Lite - agentic coding benchmark". Below we describe in simple words what benchmarks of this type generally examine.

MLS-Bench-Lite measures how well a model works as an autonomous coding agent. In detail, it checks:

• fixing real, open bugs from real software repositories
• planning multi-step changes, running commands and editing files by itself
• passing the project's test suite after its changes
• handling whole repositories, not just small isolated code snippets

The score is accuracy: the percentage of tasks answered or solved correctly. 100% means every task was solved perfectly; higher is better.

Official methodology note: MLS-Bench-Lite - agentic coding benchmark. Evaluated with Claude Code using a 5-hour timeout and max_tokens=131,072. Scores from the official leaderboard.
