WuYu-EnvLE-Bench is introduced, a benchmark built from real enforcement cases, regulatory standards, and expert review that highlights the need for evidence-grounded, rule-aware, and task-adaptive enforcement reasoning.
Abstract
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly considered for environmental enforcement, but their ability to produce traceable enforcement decisions remains unclear. We introduce WuYu-EnvLE-Bench, a benchmark built from real enforcement cases, regulatory standards, and expert review. It contains 2,521 benchmark instances, 14 tasks, and 12 pollution-medium subdomains across pre-enforcement, in-enforcement, and post-enforcement workflows. Using Absolute Environmental Enforcement Score (AES) and Intelligent Enforcement Index (IEI), we evaluate open-source and closed-source LLMs across capability, response quality, and resource efficiency. Results show that LLMs perform well on rule-bounded tasks but remain unreliable in evidence-chain construction, contradiction detection, multi-source integration, and procedural judgment. Model scaling also shows diminishing returns: medium-sized models approach leading models in structured tasks, while larger models do not reliably overcome evidence-reasoning bottlenecks. WuYu-EnvLE-Bench highlights the need for evidence-grounded, rule-aware, and task-adaptive enforcement reasoning.
ContainmentBench, a sandboxed benchmark comprising a 504-scenario specification dataset, a shared rollout-trace schema, and stage-scoped metrics for endpoint violations, logged propagation, and explicitly authorized taint-exposed proposals that commit, is introduced.
Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated strong performance across a wide range of legal tasks. In legal practice, time is a critical concept that governs the validity of statutes, the progression of legal cases, and the enforcement of procedural deadlines. However, legal temporal capabilities remain underexplored in existing legal AI benchmarks. To address this gap, we propose LexKairos, a comprehensive benchmark for evaluating the temporal capabilities of LLMs in the Chinese legal context across three dimensions: statutory temporal knowledge, case temporal modeling, and statute-case temporal reasoning. LexKairos comprises nine sub-tasks drawn from real-world Chinese judicial cases and statutes. We conduct systematic evaluations of eight LLMs under multiple inference settings, including vanilla, Chain-of-Thought (CoT), and thinking modes. Our results show that Gemini-3-Flash achieves the strongest overall performance, yet even the best-performing model exhibits notable limitations on tasks demanding precise time-sensitive statutory metadata recall or complex reasoning in time limits, indicating that legal temporal knowledge and reasoning remain open challenges for current LLMs. Data and code are available at https://github.com/thunlp/LexKairos.

User experience (UX) evaluation is central to software quality, yet it remains difficult to integrate into software engineering workflows in a systematic, explainable, and early-stage manner. This paper presents TraceUX, a framework for operationalizing UX heuristics and design guidance into a rule-based static evaluation pipeline that combines machine-interpretable formalization, executability-aware assessment, context-sensitive scoring, and actionable reporting. The framework is instantiated using Apple Human Interface Guidelines, Swift abstract syntax trees, and mobile games, and implemented in a proof-of-concept tool named TraceHIG. Evaluation was conducted in four layers: analysis of the full rule repository, controlled synthetic validation with injected violations, baseline assessment of 12 public Swift game projects, and a case study on one project. The full repository contained 206 rules; after excluding non-iOS yet platform-specific rules, 193 rules were retained for the downstream experiments. In controlled validation, 216 injected violations yielded 99.2% precision, 61.6% recall, and an F1-score of 0.760. In baseline analysis, overall project scores ranged from 41.6 to 88.0, reflecting rule-conformance spread under the instantiated rule base rather than direct measures of UX quality. The case study demonstrated that profile-aware scoring can yield materially different UX assessments for the same codebase under different game configurations, highlighting the importance of app profiling in static UX evaluation. These findings show that a meaningful subset of UX knowledge can be operationalized into explainable, context-aware static analysis that provides structured and actionable decision support while complementing, rather than replacing, manual and empirical UX evaluation.
As AI coding agents take on increasingly complex, long-horizon software engineering tasks, existing benchmarks are rapidly saturating and their evaluation quality has come under serious scrutiny: a recent audit found that nearly 60% of unsolved SWE-bench Verified instances contain flawed tests -- either overly narrow tests that reject correct solutions or overly broad tests that check unstated requirements -- and that frontier models can verbatim reproduce gold patches from training data. Code refactoring, which requires coordinated, behavior-preserving changes across many files, offers a substantially harder and more realistic test of agent capability, yet remains underserved by current benchmarks. We introduce SWE-Bench ProMax, an expert-curated, multilingual code refactoring benchmark of 170 instances drawn from real commits across seven programming languages (Python, Java, TypeScript, Go, C, C++, and Rust). Every instance undergoes rigorous, multi-stage curation that directly addresses the quality problems identified in prior benchmarks: issue descriptions are rewritten from scratch to provide precise, unambiguous specifications, and test suites are manually reviewed to remove overly narrow and overly broad tests. Tasks with insufficient complexity or limited cross-file scope are filtered out, yielding a benchmark of challenging, large-scale refactoring tasks that average 11.4 modified files and 261.6 lines of code per instance, substantially exceeding the scale of existing benchmarks. Experiments with frontier models under two agent scaffolds show that the best model achieves only 41.2% resolve rate, confirming that SWE-Bench ProMax presents a meaningful and unsaturated challenge for current AI coding agents.

A reusable engineering pattern for turning exploratory prototypes into auditable applications with versioned source, control, and validation artifacts is presented, which reconstructs this pattern into a traceable, auditable LLM-agent architecture.
This paper proposes SafeKeep, an inference-time safeguard that decouples safety judgment from tool execution: it assesses requests using flattened textual tool specifications while retaining the original schema-formatted specifications for execution.
