Despite the remarkable progress achieved by recent efficient methods in accelerating multimodal understanding, they still suffer from noticeable performance degradation. Their emphasis on the high compression ratio of a single visual clue and reliance on the heuristic pruning strategy with coarse attention alignment incurs a bottleneck on the information *capacity* and *density* of visual tokens. Addressing this limitation, we propose VEN-VL, a visual ensemble MoE framework for effective and efficient perception following the *enrich then compact* principle. Specifically, we first enrich the information capacity by unifying the visual representations of different perspectives, and then progressively compact it with adaptive routers in specialized visual experts to enhance the information density. Furthermore, we incorporate the reconstruction ability of vanilla structure via explicit visual supervision, facilitating crucial information preservation. Experimental results demonstrate our superiority in complex visual tasks with few information-condensed tokens, which effectively bridges the gap between performance and efficiency. Code will be available.

Program verifiers play a central role in training coding agents, including selecting trajectories for supervised fine-tuning (SFT) and providing rewards for reinforcement learning (RL). Standard execution-based verification requires running unit tests inside per-repository environments such as Docker images, incurring substantial environment setup costs. We propose Dockerless, an environment-free agentic patch verifier that evaluates generated code patches without executing them. Rather than simply matching candidate patches to references, Dockerless judges patch correctness using evidence gathered through agentic repository exploration. On a verifier evaluation benchmark, Dockerless outperforms the strongest open-source verifier by 14.3 AUC points. Using Dockerless as both the SFT trajectory filter and the RL reward enables a fully environment-free post-training pipeline. The resulting model reaches 62.0%, 50.0%, and 35.2% resolve rate on SWE-bench Verified, Multilingual, and Pro, respectively. It surpasses the Qwen3.5-9B baseline by 2.4, 8.7, and 2.9 points, matching environment-based post-training.

Long-horizon software engineering agents often need to manage lengthy and noisy interaction histories under limited context budgets. Existing memory management methods rely on static compression workflows or rigid compression schedules, and often decouple memory decisions from task-solving performance. We present SWE-MeM, a training framework for proactive and on-demand memory management in software engineering agents. SWE-MeM provides a flexible memory tool that lets agents decide when, what, and how to compress based on trajectory state, task progress, and remaining context budget. We train agents with synthesized proactive memory-management trajectories and Memory-aware GRPO, which jointly optimizes memory management and issue resolution through memory-aware trajectory splitting and step-level credit assignment. On SWE-Bench Verified, SWE-MeM achieves 43.4% and 60.2% resolve rate with 4B and 30B models, respectively, outperforming existing memory management baselines in both performance and efficiency.

In this paper, we present HumanEval Pro and MBPP Pro, a series of benchmarks to evaluate LLMs on self-invoking code generation task. This task involves providing LLMs with a base problem alongside a related, more complex problem. The models must solve the base problem and leverage its solution to address the more complex one, thereby showcasing their capacity for progressive reasoning and problem-solving. This work features three key contributions. First, we propose a general recipe for generating more challenging versions of existing benchmarks. Second, from the analysis of experimental results over twenty large language models (LLM) on our benchmarks, we have two important observations: (i) Most LLMs excel in traditional code generation benchmarks like HumanEval and MBPP, but their performance declines on self-invoking tasks. For example, o1-mini achieves 96.2% pass@1 on HumanEval but only 76.2% on HumanEval Pro. (ii) On self-invoking code generation task, the instruction-tuned models demonstrate only marginal improvements compared to the base models. Third, we disclose the types of failure modes that exist in our evaluation results. All these results underscore the need for further advancements in this area and provide a new prospective to future research.

Large Language Models (LLMs) can achieve enhanced complex problem-solving through test-time computing scaling, yet this often entails longer contexts and numerous reasoning token costs. In this paper, we propose an efficient test-time scaling method that trains LLMs on code-related reasoning trajectories, facilitating their reduction of excess thinking tokens while maintaining performance.First, we create Z1-Code-Reasoning-107K, a curated dataset of simple and complex coding problems paired with their short and long solution trajectories. Second, we present a novel Shifted Thinking Window to mitigate overthinking overhead by removing context-delimiting tags (e.g., <think>...</think>) and capping reasoning tokens. Trained with long and short trajectory data and equipped with Shifted Thinking Window, our model, Z1-7B, demonstrates the ability to adjust its reasoning level as the complexity of problems and exhibits efficient test-time scaling across different reasoning tasks that matches R1-Distill-Qwen-7B performance with about 30% of its average thinking tokens.Notably, fine-tuned with only code trajectories, Z1-7B demonstrates generalization to broader reasoning tasks (47.5% on GPQA Diamond). Our analysis of efficient reasoning elicitation also provides valuable insights for future research.

Recent work demonstrates that, after instruction tuning, Code Large Language Models (Code LLMs) can obtain impressive capabilities to address a wide range of code-related tasks. However, current instruction tuning methods for Code LLMs mainly focus on the traditional code generation task, resulting in poor performance in complex multi-task scenarios. In this paper, we concentrate on multiple code-related tasks and present WaveCoder, a series of Code LLMs trained with Widespread And Versatile Enhanced instruction data. To enable the models to tackle complex code-related tasks, we propose a method to stably generate diverse, high-quality instruction data from open source code dataset in multi-task scenarios and obtain CodeOcean, a dataset comprising 19,915 instruction instances across 4 code-related tasks, which is aimed at improving the generalization ability of Code LLM. Our experiments demonstrate that WaveCoder models significantly outperform other open-source models in terms of the generalization ability across different code-related tasks. Moreover, WaveCoder-Ultra-6.7B presents the state-of-the-art generalization abilities on a wide range of code-related tasks.
