ICAE-Bench: Evaluating Coding Agents as Interactive Project Builders
The recent emergence of vibe-coding workflows is changing what coding agents are expected to do. Instead of merely completing code under fully specified instructions, agents are increasingly expected to transform incomplete product intent into working software by combining various abilities including planning, requirement clarification, tool use, debugging, and repository-level construction. Yet existing benchmarks have not fully caught up with this shift, evaluating agents on static, fully specified tasks. In this paper, we introduce ICAE-Bench, a benchmark for evaluating coding agents under interactive project-building settings. The basic idea is to start from a fuzzy product requirement, simulating the dynamic paradigm with an automated User Agent. To make this setting both realistic and evaluable, ICAE-Bench introduces three key designs. First, to avoid the ambiguity of unconstrained fuzzy requirements, each task derives ambiguity from a precise real open-source repository with executable behavior. Second, to ensure high-quality and reproducible user simulation, ICAE-Bench grounds interaction through User Agent Data, allowing the User Agent to reveal hidden constraints without inventing new requirements or leaking implementation artifacts. Third, to evaluate open-ended repositories fairly, ICAE-Bench uses standardized black-box tests together with multi-dimensional diagnostics, including functional correctness, semantic and API similarity, structural fidelity, design quality, and interaction quality.
LongCat-Flash-Thinking-2601 Technical Report
We introduce LongCat-Flash-Thinking-2601, a 560-billion-parameter open-source Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) reasoning model with superior agentic reasoning capability. LongCat-Flash-Thinking-2601 achieves state-of-the-art performance among open-source models on a wide range of agentic benchmarks, including agentic search, agentic tool use, and tool-integrated reasoning. Beyond benchmark performance, the model demonstrates strong generalization to complex tool interactions and robust behavior under noisy real-world environments. Its advanced capability stems from a unified training framework that combines domain-parallel expert training with subsequent fusion, together with an end-to-end co-design of data construction, environments, algorithms, and infrastructure spanning from pre-training to post-training. In particular, the model's strong generalization capability in complex tool-use are driven by our in-depth exploration of environment scaling and principled task construction. To optimize long-tailed, skewed generation and multi-turn agentic interactions, and to enable stable training across over 10,000 environments spanning more than 20 domains, we systematically extend our asynchronous reinforcement learning framework, DORA, for stable and efficient large-scale multi-environment training. Furthermore, recognizing that real-world tasks are inherently noisy, we conduct a systematic analysis and decomposition of real-world noise patterns, and design targeted training procedures to explicitly incorporate such imperfections into the training process, resulting in improved robustness for real-world applications. To further enhance performance on complex reasoning tasks, we introduce a Heavy Thinking mode that enables effective test-time scaling by jointly expanding reasoning depth and width through intensive parallel thinking.
