ScoreHow to read this Mercor evaluation
We captured Mercor's SWE-bench Verified Extended results on October 1, 2026. The table preserves 33 published configurations, their source identifiers, reasoning settings, and disclosed pass@1 values. These are results from Mercor's evaluation setup; we did not rerun them.
The headline uses the 50 Mercor-built tasks. The paired original-set values refer to the separately listed 500-task public benchmark. Missing baselines remain unreported. We keep the extension and original set separate from their upstream benchmark-owner and provider-run tables.
The headline is the source page's selected Pass@1 metric. The task set, harness, tools, and grader belong to this Mercor run and may differ from another evaluator's results.
The row labels retain published error margins and sample counts when supplied. Missing margins and counts remain unreported; a sample count is not used to reconstruct a task denominator. Except where the dedicated source defines an interval, the confidence level is unreported. Equal displayed scores and overlapping margins do not establish statistical ties. Capture time does not establish individual evaluation dates.
The general methodology lists programmatic fail-to-pass and pass-to-pass unit tests (all must pass) and a judge of None. Its run-count label is k = 3. Those notes describe the original public benchmark; extension-specific changes are not established by that reference.
Snapshot
The published SWE-bench Verified Extended (Mercor) snapshot places DeepSeek-V4.1-Flash first at 82.70%. The third row is 4.00 points behind. The broader top-10 range is 19.40 points, so the table still separates the published systems.
33 configurations are shown for SWE-bench Verified Extended (Mercor). The benchmark falls in the Coding category. We keep external benchmark mirrors separate from the weighted global scoring system, so these results remain source-specific evidence. SWE-bench Verified Extended (Mercor) is currently displayed for reference but excluded from the scoring formula, so it does not directly affect overall rankings.
