Cross-Benchmark Transfer from RL on Agentic Coding Tasks

Excerpt

arXiv:2610.00890v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Coding agents often fail in the last mile: they build most of a feature but drop a requirement, test only the cases their implementation already handles, break behavior that was supposed to stay intact, or validate against an unchecked assumption. We ask whether reinforcement learning (RL) on expert-built agentic coding tasks closes this gap, and whether what the agent learns transfers beyond the training distribution. We post-train Kimi K2.7 Code,
