Show the model the repository's file tree and the issue and have it rank suspicious files, retrieve files by embedding similarity to the issue, merge the two lists, then narrow within the chosen files to classes and functions and finally to Filed by the drafting stage from Agentless: Demystifying LLM-based Software Engineering Agents (2407.01489) with status proposed: the paper introduces or tests it, and the claim drafted from the paper is its first evidence. The paper validated it by: Contains-ground-truth rate after each localization step on SWE-bench Lite with GPT-4o (file-level 78.7% prompting, 67.7% embedding, 81.7% combined), and end-to-end resolve rate and cost against contemporaneous open-source agents; no comparison against a tool-using agent given the same localization..

Efficacy claims — what this technique actually moves, under which conditions, and whether that has been contested.

No efficacy claim filed yet. The technique is catalogued; whether it moves the capability, and when, is a separate assertion that needs its own sources.

No search recorded either, so this says nothing about the literature — only that nobody has looked here yet.

Either way, bring evidence: a link, or what you saw.

Whether a technique works is a claim. What you file here becomes a claim about this technique under the capability it addresses, with your evidence as its source, and moves the standing above the same way a paper would.
