Live-SWE-agent: Can Software Engineering Agents Self-Evolve on the Fly?

Understand

Large Language Models (LLMs) are reshaping almost all industries, including software engineering.

• In recent years, a number of LLM agents have been proposed to solve real-world software problems.
• Such software agents are typically equipped with a suite of coding tools and can autonomously decide the next actions to form complete trajectories to solve end-to-end software tasks.
• While promising, they typically require dedicated design and may still be suboptimal, since it can be extremely challenging and costly to exhaust the entire agent scaffold design space.
