Pawel Huryn published full Bug Hunt Bench results for DeepSeek V4.1 Flash 1017 across harnesses: fixing 105 planted bugs, the DeepSeek harness averaged 42.5 (7 runs), Pi harness 42.2 (5 runs), and Claude Code 39.1 (7 runs) — Pi matching top scores at lower cost. Notably, Claude Code at high effort (36.4) underperformed max effort (39.1). Diffs were blind-judged by Grok; three runs that read answers from outside their folder were voided. High effort + Pi testing is next.
