Lot more details in the linked report
https://ai.meta.com/static-resource/muse-spark-1-1-evaluatio...From Terminal-bench-2.1 details,
> We use a bash-tool-only agent harness to evaluate 89 Terminal-Bench 2.1 tasks from the official repository, where resources are capped at 6 CPU cores and 8GB RAM.
This disqualifies the results. Each terminal bench task has a cpu upper limit and RAM upper limit. Overriding either is disqualification.
For reference, in tbench-2.1,
1. 0 out of 89 task allow 6 cpu cores (highest is 4, and i think only 1 task)
2. 8 out of 89 tasks allow 8GB RAM
This kind of shady benchmarking (I was talking about it just yesterday in a different context https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48838212) takes all joy out of building a harness to improve benchmark performance of a model because no matter what you do, you won't beat the headline (cheating) number. This is presumably why this model is not in the official benchmark leaderboard https://www.tbench.ai/leaderboard/terminal-bench/2.1
As an ex Meta employee, this is a little sad but not massively surprising. 'Number go up' is the core performance evaluation metric until PSC is done and you move on.
