What is NL2Repo?

NL2Repo asks for something very hard: generate a complete, working software repository from a natural-language description. The evaluated model typically runs inside an coding agent harness (for example Claude Code) and has many turns to create, run and fix its own code.

What does it test?

NL2Repo measures how well a model works as an autonomous coding agent. In detail, it checks:

  • turning a plain-language spec into a project structure
  • writing complete code files instead of fragments
  • making the generated repo actually build and run
  • long autonomous sessions with hundreds of tool calls

How to read the score

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