New 'Agentic Coding Index' Measures Coding Intelligence Density Across Models
Informal-Trouble2183 · reddit · 2026-08-31
The author aggregated major agentic coding benchmarks (SWE-bench Pro, DeepSWE, Terminal-Bench, etc.) into a composite "Agentic Coding Index." A new formula, Intelligence/Parameter, was introduced to calculate "Intelligence Density." It features a super-linear exponent (2.5354) to prevent tiny models from dominating and sets an 8B parameter lower bound for regularization, aiming to measure true autonomous mastery per parameter.
