While autonomous software engineering (SWE) agents are reshaping programming paradigms, they currently suffer from a “closed-world” limitation: they attempt to fix bugs from scratch or solely using information from the current repository, ignoring the immense historical human experience available on platforms like GitHub. Accessing this open-world experience is hindered by the unstructured and fragmented nature of real-world issue-tracking data. In this paper, we introduce MemGovern, a framework designed to govern and transform raw GitHub data into actionable experiential memory for agents. MemGovern employs experience governance to convert human experience into agent-friendly experience cards and introduces an agentic experience search strategy that enables logic-driven retrieval of human expertise. By producing 135K governed experience cards, MemGovern achieves a significant performance boost, improving resolution rates on the SWE-bench benchmark by 4.65%. As a plug-in approach, MemGovern provides a solution for agent-friendly memory infrastructure.

AI coding has emerged as a core application of large language models (LLMs), evolving from single-file coding tasks towards complex software engineering (SWE) scenarios. Recent advances in agents have enabled multi-file, multi-language, and dependency-aware AI coding, significantly expanding the scope of AI-assisted software development. While a variety of benchmarks have been proposed to evaluate coding capabilities in general-purpose or GPU coding ecosystems such as CUDA and ROCm, systematic evaluation for Huawei Ascend CANN remains largely underexplored. In this work, we propose LiveCANNBench, an SWE-level benchmark designed for AI coding in the CANN software stack. LiveCANNBench is constructed from real-world CANN repositories and consists of over 400 task instances spanning multi-file, multi-language, and execution-aware coding challenges. Unlike existing static benchmarks that primarily focus on kernel-level code generation, LiveCANNBench adopts a live benchmarking paradigm, effectively mitigating data leakage and enabling more reliable evaluation of modern coding agents.
