Evaluating Agentic Code Repair Capabilities in Distributed Systems

Excerpt

arXiv:2608.14863v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: LLM-based coding agents have advanced rapidly on single-process SWE tasks, with frontier models now clustering in the high-70s on SWE-bench Verified. Distributed-system debugging, however, remains an under-explored regime: bugs span processes, nodes, and protocol interactions, with root causes rarely recoverable from source alone and brute-force exploration intractable across non-deterministic interleavings. This leaves two gaps in LLM and agent
