I can't help but notice that they're benchmarking Opus 4.6 (Anthropic's latest and greatest model) against GPT-5.2 (which is three generations behind OpenAI's latest coding models: GPT-5.2-Codex, GPT-5.3-Codex and the latest GPT-5.4).

This seems like a really cool thing to benchmark! Technically it'd be possible to take GitHub repos that the AI orgs probably already have, cross-reference the code against the issues and regressions, and train/validate on that.
"Vibe coded stuff gets hard to maintain and will end up buggy." Yeah, so make models that deal with that better, optimize for maintainability and consistency.
To me using agents daily, the long term vision with maintainability in mind really makes the difference between us humans and agents, I like the idea. However evaluating long term maintainability over an average of just 500 loc changes does not sound like long term maintainability being measured here
Really long-term task benchmark showing significant improvements in very recent models, while also showing really bad regression rates across the board.

The dataset would need to be way bigger to get close to the likes of SWE-bench: https://www.swebench.com/original.html

Cool to see Claude doing decently though!
The scales do seem to be tipped in its favor (cf: my other comment in this thread).
