Definition
An agent that reads a real GitHub issue, navigates the repository, edits files, and produces a patch. Its central finding is about the tooling rather than the model: replacing a bare shell with a purpose-built set of commands for viewing, editing, and testing code changes the success rate substantially. It is the reference implementation people cite when discussing how to approach SWE-bench.
