SWE-bench Verified

Princeton NLP / OpenAI
open / Overall score: 4.0(strong)

500 human-validated instances drawn from the wider SWE-bench dataset, each pairing a real GitHub issue with a test-verified solution patch and the fail-to-pass and pass-to-pass test lists that grade it. It was curated by OpenAI from the SWE-bench test set to reduce noise in the original 2,294-instance set.

The dataset card declares no license, and the harness repository's README points at a LICENSE.md path that does not exist.

SWE-bench Verified is ungated and downloadable, with the gold patches and tests included; the Hugging Face card itself states no license, but the canonical SWE-bench repository's citation-and-license section names MIT, and a repository's own license governs when the two disagree. That makes it fully open, unlike the broader SWE-bench variants, which can carry held-out splits.

Adoption

4 high confidence
4.0

Adoption is measured by Hugging Face downloads across the declared SWE-bench Verified artifacts. GPT-5, Claude Opus, DeepSeek, Qwen and Kimi all report SWE-bench Verified as their headline coding metric, and a live, heavily submitted leaderboard runs at swebench.com.

Capability

not assessed

A dataset is not 'capable', so capability is left unscored. SWE-bench Verified is notably contamination-resistant and discriminating for coding agents, since it runs against real repository state and executable tests, but that quality is noted here rather than turned into a number.

    The dataset card describes a corpus: "SWE-bench Verified is a subset of 500 samples from the SWE-bench test set, which have been human-validated for quality", with FAIL_TO_PASS and PASS_TO_PASS test fields. Searched the body for SOTA and throughput claims: none.
