# PrototypeBench v0.1
> **Can your agent ship a full-stack AI-native prototype?**
PrototypeBench is an open benchmark for evaluating AI coding agents on **full-stack feature shipping**. Where SWE-Bench measures bug-fixing in mature Python libraries, PrototypeBench measures *"can the agent ship a full-stack feature on a modern AI-native stack?"*
- **Project home**: https://github.com/prototypebench/prototypebench
- **Website**: https://prototypebench.org
- **License**: MIT
- **Version**: v0.1 (initial corpus)
- **Language**: English (problem statements), Python (backend code), TypeScript/JavaScript (frontend code, future)
## Dataset Summary
123 **PR-mined task instances** from active open-source repositories, each shaped for SWE-Bench-compatible execution-based scoring:
| Stat | Value |
|---|---:|
| Total instances | **123** |
| Sources | 3 (`fastapi/full-stack-fastapi-template`, `IBM/mcp-context-forge`, `usebruno/bruno`) |
| `FAIL_TO_PASS` tests | 940 |
| `PASS_TO_PASS` regression-guard tests | 31,945 |
| Total test cases per full eval | **32,885** |
| stack_domain | 71 backend_only + 52 frontend_only (fullstack instances in later versions) |
| contamination_tier | 123 held_out (all post-2026-01-01) |
| Schema version | 0.1 |
**Comparison**: SWE-Bench Verified has 500 instances, SWE-Bench Lite 300, HumanEval 164. v1 public-beta targets 200–300.
## Scoring
Execution-based binary scoring (no LLM-as-judge):
```
score(instance) = 1 iff FAIL_TO_PASS ⊆ passing_tests
AND PASS_TO_PASS ⊆ passing_tests (no regression)
0 otherwise
```
**Judge**: `pytest` (backend) and `Playwright` (frontend, future). **Ground truth** = the actual merged PR diff (hidden from the agent). See the [methodology notes](https://github.com/prototypebench/prototypebench/blob/main/PLAN.md#52-오염-대응-contamination-mitigation).
## Usage
```python
from datasets import load_dataset
ds = load_dataset("banyaaiofficial/prototypebench-v1", split="test")
for item in ds:
print(item["instance_id"]) # e.g. "IBM__mcp-context-forge-4270"
print(item["problem_statement"]) # NL task spec (PR body or closing issue)
base_sha = item["base_commit"] # pre-PR commit — agent starts here
# Agent produces a non-test unified diff against base_sha.
# Score it with the companion harness:
# pbench score --source <short> --pr <N> --patch-file agent_patch.diff
```
Each instance extends the SWE-Bench `instances.jsonl` schema with dual-test fields (`fail_to_pass.backend` / `.frontend`, `test_patch_backend` / `.frontend`) for future Playwright integration.

## Source Composition
| Source | Stars | License | Instances | F2P | P2P | Stack |
|---|---:|---|---:|---:|---:|---|
| [`fastapi/full-stack-fastapi-template`](https://github.com/fastapi/full-stack-fastapi-template) | 42.7k | MIT | 3 | 7 | 77 | backend_only |
| [`IBM/mcp-context-forge`](https://github.com/IBM/mcp-context-forge) | 3.6k | Apache-2 | 68 | 682 | 31,567 | backend_only |
| [`usebruno/bruno`](https://github.com/usebruno/bruno) | 44k | MIT | **52** | **251** | **301** | **frontend_only** (NEW v0.2) |
All PRs are **merged PRs with maintainer-reviewed tests**. Task instances mine the natural atomic unit of change (one feature or fix at a time).
`bruno` frontend instances are validated end-to-end via a Playwright + Electron runner (`harness/frontend_direct_runner.py`) — `docker run` of a custom `prototypebench/playwright-electron` image (Playwright base + GTK/NSS/ATK/Xvfb + chrome-sandbox SUID) that hosts bruno's own `webServer` config in-process. No external backend dependency.
## Data Fields
See the task-schema doc for full field-by-field semantics. Highlights:
- `instance_id` — stable unique ID (`owner__repo-<pr_number>`)
- `base_commit` / `head_commit` — SHAs bounding the reference change
- `problem_statement` — natural-language task spec (from closing issue body, else PR description)
- `patch` — reference solution (non-test diff). **Hidden from the agent at evaluation time.**
- `test_patch` — test-only diff that the harness applies before running the agent's patch
- `fail_to_pass` — `{backend: [...], frontend: [...]}` — tests the agent must make pass
- `pass_to_pass` — `{backend: [...], frontend: [...]}` — regression-guard tests (must not break)
- `stack_domain` — `backend_only` | `frontend_only` | `fullstack`
- `environment` — python_version, node_version, uv_lock_sha, etc. for reproducible builds
- `contamination_tier` — `public` | `held_out` | `internal_only`
## Contamination & Fairness
- **Held-out by construction**: all v0.2 instances are merged after 2026-01-01 (Claude Opus 4.7 cutoff). Submitters must disclose their model cutoff for point-count adjustment.
- **Rotation**: held-out tier is rotated per leaderboard season (Phase 5).
- **No vendor branding**: benchmark carries no vendor name. Hosted on `banyaaiofficial` for convenience only; the benchmark is project-neutral.
## Limitations
- v0.2 adds frontend coverage but no `fullstack` instances yet (single PR touching both backend and frontend in a coordinated way — pending source diversification).
- Two backend sources cover 71 instances; `bruno` covers 52 frontend instances — single-source frontend pool is the current trade-off (see [`PLAN.md` §3.3.1-3.3.2](https://github.com/prototypebench/prototypebench/blob/main/PLAN.md) for the OSS-landscape diagnosis behind it).
- "test strength = benchmark quality": PRs with weak tests are filtered but not perfectly. Curator review recommended.
- Execution-based scoring requires running tests (not instantaneous) — see the harness for Docker-based reproducible runs.
- bruno frontend instances run inside an Electron-capable Playwright image with Xvfb; cold-start (`npm run setup` + workspace builds) adds ~3-5 min per phase. Caching across `base` and `head` phases via Docker named volumes is a v0.3 target.

## Changelog
- **v0.2.2** (2026-05-24): fix — Playwright snapshot tests (`tests/snapshots/**`) on the bruno source are now P2P-only advisory. They're kept in F2P (where they're often the actual feature test — e.g. `#7948`'s "transient request quit flow" is checked via snapshot specs) but excluded from P2P (where they cause spurious failures from rendering / timing drift between base and score-time, even with byte-identical patches). Verified `bruno#7948` with byte-identical agent_patch: previously F2P 4/4 + P2P 13/14 = score 0; now F2P 4/4 + P2P 0/0 = score 1. Total P2P across 52 bruno instances: 327 → 301 (26 snapshot tests dropped). Schema unchanged.
- **v0.2.1** (2026-05-24): fix — bruno frontend instances rebuilt with the corrected `test_patch_frontend` extraction. Earlier v0.2 captured only `tests/**/*.spec.ts` (Playwright specs), missing the co-located fixtures (`.bru` collections, `init-user-data/preferences.json`). Result: even a byte-identical copy of the reference patch could fail at score time because specs couldn't load their fixtures. Re-verified on `bruno#7947`: F2P 0/12 → 11/12 with a byte-identical agent_patch (the remaining 1/12 is a Playwright flake unrelated to the fix). Source extraction now uses `tests/**` (entire test subtree). Instance count unchanged (52 frontend). See [docs/phase3-fe-smoke-analysis.md](https://github.com/prototypebench/prototypebench/blob/main/docs/phase3-fe-smoke-analysis.md) for the diagnostic trail.
- **v0.2** (2026-05-23): +52 frontend_only instances from `usebruno/bruno` via the new `playwright_direct` runner (custom Playwright+Electron image with Xvfb). Corpus 71 → 123. F2P 689 → 940, P2P 31,644 → 31,971. Frontend ratio 0% → 42%. Schema v0.1 unchanged.
- **v0.1** (2026-04-20): initial corpus. 71 backend_only instances, all held_out. Schema v0.1.
