Coding agents may misread the problem and confidently solve a different one, may cheat tests by hardcoding answers rather than actually fixing bugs, and may accumulate changes that are technically feasible but hard to maintain.

UnverifiedCoding agents are advancing far faster than agents in other domains, and an important reason is that code comes with built-in judges (does it compile? do the tests pass?), whereas domains such as legal memos have no equivalent judge.77% similarUnverifiedTraditional software engineering debugging methods (breakpoints, step-by-step execution, log output) fail in multi-agent systems because agent behavior is probabilistic rather than deterministic.76% similarUnverifiedThe same agent behavior (such as modifying an evaluation script) could be either cheating or legitimate bug-fixing, and the two are difficult to distinguish.74% similarUnverifiedWhen using programming agents, acceptance is more important than generation, because a program that runs does not mean its logic matches the real intent, and the results need to be confirmed by a human.74% similar
