LiveCodeBench
#23 / 76LiveCodeBench is a holistic and contamination-free evaluation benchmark for large language models for code. It continuously collects new problems from programming contests (LeetCode, AtCoder, CodeForces) and evaluates four different scenarios: code generation, self-repair, code execution, and test output prediction. Problems are annotated with release dates to enable evaluation on unseen problems released after a model's training cutoff.

Multi-Challenge
#2 / 41MultiChallenge is a realistic multi-turn conversation evaluation benchmark that challenges frontier LLMs across four key categories: instruction retention (maintaining instructions throughout conversations), inference memory (recalling and connecting details from previous turns), reliable versioned editing (adapting to evolving instructions during collaborative editing), and self-coherence (avoiding contradictions in responses). The benchmark evaluates models on sustained, contextually complex dialogues across diverse topics including travel planning, technical documentation, and professional communication.

Terminal-Bench
#17 / 25Terminal-Bench is a benchmark for testing AI agents in real terminal environments. It evaluates how well agents can handle real-world, end-to-end tasks autonomously, including compiling code, training models, setting up servers, system administration, security tasks, data science workflows, and cybersecurity vulnerabilities. The benchmark consists of a dataset of ~100 hand-crafted, human-verified tasks and an execution harness that connects language models to a terminal sandbox.
