Supabase Releases Evals: an Open Source Benchmark That Scores Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode on Real Supabase Tasks
Supabase has open sourced Supabase Evals, its benchmark and framework for testing how well AI agents build using Supabase. It runs coding agents including Claude Code, Codex, and OpenCode against real tasks, such as building a schema, debugging a failed Edge Function, or fixing a broken RLS policy, then scores the result. It powers the public leaderboard at supabase.com/evals and an internal regression suite monitored daily. Is it deployable? Yes, today. supabase/evals is public under Apa
Supabase has released an open source benchmark framework called Supabase Evals that tests how well AI coding agents perform on real database and backend tasks, such as building schemas, debugging functions, and fixing security policies. The benchmark runs multiple AI agents against actual Supabase environments in containers rather than simulated versions, then scores results using a combination of automated checks and AI-based judgment. The framework matters for developers using AI agents to write code in regulated industries like fintech and healthcare, where mistakes in security policies could create serious vulnerabilities. The benchmark is publicly available and powers both a public leaderboard and internal testing, revealing that top models perform well without additional guidance while smaller models benefit more from skills and that different agents vary significantly in how often they consult documentation.

Google DeepMind researchers used agentic AI to mathematically prove, or “formally verify,” a number of the Signal protocol’s key cryptographic guarantees—a landmark development for the widely used cryptography and AI itself. Conducted as a sort of proof-of-concept project in just four weeks, the work is significant in two ways. It serves as further independent validation of the cryptography that protects massive quantities of the world's communications on platforms like the Signal app, Google Me

Baidu’s ERNIE Evolve Automated Research System Beats NanoChat and NanoGPT Records
Baidu has just released ERNIE Evolve, an automated research system that improves AI training and inference code. Given a repository, an objective and evaluation criteria, it picks research directions, edits code and runs experiments. Only changes that pass a hidden evaluator and a separate reviewer are kept. Baidu team tested the ERNIE Evolve automated research system on three public benchmarks. It then optimized inference for ERNIE-5.5-Flash, still in development. TL;DR Size: It is an

AI coding agents still need human cleanup on nearly three out of four tasks in a real-world test
Alibaba's new coding-agent benchmark, Co-Design Bench, tests AI agents on real user requests that already tripped them up in practice. Even GPT-6 Astra, the top performer, fully solves only 26.4 percent of tasks. On older benchmarks, the same models score above 99 percent. The article AI coding agents still need human cleanup on nearly three out of four tasks in a real-world test appeared first on The Decoder.

The gap between open and closed AI models in cyber capabilities keeps shrinking
In the Vals AI benchmark, OpenAI's GPT-6 Sol Daybreak hits 80.8 percent of attack objectives in simulated corporate networks. Worse, the open-weight model DeepSeek V4.1 Flash reaches 72.8 percent at a tenth of the cost. Because open models can no longer be restricted, analysts say the window for defenders is shrinking fast.

Nine AI agents tried autonomous research on open questions from US national labs and none passed the experts' bar
The "Into the Unknown" benchmark tasks nine AI agents with tackling open research questions from U.S. national laboratories. None of the 135 submissions meets all requirements. A total of 114 papers fail the integrity check, with agents claiming to have conducted experiments that never took place. GPT-6 Astra performs best but still doesn't meet the experts' standards.

Ripple-65B Preview delivers strong agentic coding results as a fully Apache 2.0 open US model
Ricursive Intelligence is releasing Ripple-65B Preview, a 65-billion-parameter open-weight language model that the company says achieves the top score among open-source U.S. models on the TerminalBench 2.1 coding benchmark at a total R&D cost of $32 million. On other benchmarks, however, Ripple falls behind the likewise newly released western open model Inkling 2 Small.
