We need more models that optimize for coding and that can be cheaper than frontier models, like what SWE 1.7 and composer 2.5 are trying to do. I don't think there's an effort to make something GLM-5.2 level but focused only on coding.

And make it run locally!

On artificialanalysis.ai, Kimi 2.7 Code is way worse than GLM 5.2 at everything (general intelligence, coding, agentic tasks). But here, both Kimi 2.7 and its derivative SWE-1.7 are ahead of GLM 5.2. This tells me the benchmarks they use are cherry-picked.

Likely benchmaxxed. You see it in Qwen and other smaller models all the time.

I’ve unfortunately had to temper my excitement with Cognition’s models/products given the amount of unwarranted hype they created with Devin on first release, but hopefully this is good.

I work with Devin daily (as well as Claude and a few others) and I can attest it's not a cheap product but it's a good one and it saves me a bunch of time.

Very thankful someone is doing this work! I suspect it will be thankless work for a while: we're not far enough into diminishing gains territory for anything other than the absolute best being worth considering for most people, but I reckon we will be pretty soon. If a year from now swe 2.0 or whatever reaches fable 5 parity for a fraction of the cost, that'll be very attractive indeed!
