Each model's best published result is shown; "Not reported" means no matched evaluation, not a score of zero. Arena and DeepSWE ranks are the leaderboards' own; other ranks are among catalogue models with a score. Results from different harnesses or settings are not directly comparable.

Arena ratings: Arena (lmarena-ai/leaderboard-dataset), licensed CC BY 4.0. Ratings come from pairwise human votes and are only comparable within one leaderboard; the interval is Arena's 95% confidence interval. Model names are matched to the Vertical Tabs catalog.
