After a 20-step smoke RL run on LFM3-1.7B, evaluated on 150 held-out tasks never seen in training (paired with base, 95% CI): opencode +9.4 ± 6.3 points pass@1 (69%→79%), hermes +6.7 ± 7.1, pi flat (−1.3 ± 6.7).

The author notes results are early and noisy (one sample per task), but the opencode gain clears the noise band. Full runs start on a livestream.
