SWE-bench Multilingual extends SWE-bench-style repository repair beyond Python. It contains 300 curated tasks from 42 repositories across 9 programming languages: C, C++, Go, Java, JavaScript, TypeScript, PHP, Ruby, and Rust (benchmark page, dataset). Each task starts from a real GitHub issue and the repository state before its fix. A coding agent must produce a patch, and AgentCompass evaluates it with the upstream SWE-bench test specification in a fresh environment.

How it works

  1. Load and prepare. AgentCompass loads the public test split and reads the issue, repository, base commit, gold patch, test metadata, and task image metadata. A built-in provider recipe normally exposes the prebaked repository at /testbed.
  2. Run the coding agent. A harness such as mini-SWE-agent or OpenHands receives the issue, edits the repository, and writes the final unified diff to /testbed/patch.txt under the standard recipe layout.
  3. Start a fresh evaluation environment. The modified inference workspace is discarded for scoring. AgentCompass creates a new task environment, restores the repository at base_commit, and applies the submitted patch.
  4. Execute the upstream test spec. make_test_spec() supplies repository-specific setup, install, and evaluation commands for the task’s language and build system.
  5. Parse resolution. get_eval_report() checks fail-to-pass and pass-to-pass tests. The task is resolved only when the issue-specific failures are fixed without regressing the required existing tests.

Parameters

Pass benchmark configuration via --benchmark-params '{...}', or through benchmark.params in a YAML file given to --config; the CLI wins on shared keys.

Parameter reference

ParameterTypeDefaultChoices / valuesDescription
prepare_modestringgit_clonegit_clone / prebakedHow inference and evaluation repositories are prepared. Built-in provider recipes normally replace this with prebaked.
workspace_rootstring/testbedabsolute environment pathRoot for per-instance workspaces before recipe overrides.
dataset_zip_urlstring""ZIP URLOptional dataset mirror. Empty loads SWE-bench/SWE-bench_Multilingual from Hugging Face.
repo_url_templatestringhttps://github.com/{repo}.gittemplate containing {repo}Repository clone URL used in git_clone mode.
sample_idslist / string / nullnullvalid instance idsOptional exact task filter. Unknown ids fail fast.
The model id is the third positional argument to agentcompass run, not a --benchmark-params field. The dataset is fixed to its test split; there is no benchmark split or language-filter parameter. Use sample_ids to select tasks.

Inference, model, and evaluation controls

eval_timeout controls only fresh multilingual repository evaluation after patch collection. It cannot extend inference. Thinking/reasoning belongs in --model-params; use the protocol/provider form documented for mini-SWE-agent or OpenHands.

Run examples

Replace <instance-id> with an instance_id from the Multilingual dataset. mini-SWE-agent is the recommended harness for SWE-bench Multilingual. It selects the SWE-bench-specific configuration and executes language-specific repository commands in the task environment.
Run one task to verify inference, patch collection, and fresh multilingual evaluation end to end.

Other optional harnesses

OpenHands is also supported. The following single-task command exposes its independent model-request, terminal-command, agent-loop, whole-task, and evaluation limits:

Outputs

Aggregate metrics

The Metric Contract declares binary correct, derived from the evaluator’s resolved decision. At k=1 it produces the native series. With k>1, avg produces both correct.avg@k and correct.pass@k; pass produces only correct.pass@k and can stop early. Read the human-readable output in summary.md and the canonical report in metrics.json. See Metrics and Aggregation.

Per-task details (details/)

Per-task detail JSON files are written under:
The attempt record contains: Do not classify a task from the detail filename alone. Use status, metrics.correct, error, meta.harness.telemetry, and meta.benchmark.eval_raw_data together: a valid but unresolved task is different from a Harness or evaluation failure.
