OpenAI published an audit of SWE-Bench Pro this week, and the headline number is uncomfortable: they estimate that around 30% of the tasks are broken. That is the kind of number that should make anyone using coding-agent leaderboards for serious decisions put the coffee down and stare at the wall for a minute. <a href="https://media2.dev.to/dynamic/image/width=800%2Cheight=%2Cfit=scale-down%2Cgravity=auto%2Cformat=auto/https%3A%2F%2Fdev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fuploads%2Far
