🚒 code-theseus

The design behind 10,000+ open-source repositories: intent, requirements and architecture, aligned with the code, ready for training coding agents.

πŸ“¦ 10,813 πŸ“„ 21,623 🌐 4 πŸ€– 2
repositories document sets languages: Java, Python, C/C++, C# generator LLMs

🧭 Why this dataset

Coding agents increasingly design before they code, but almost no data connects code to the requirements and architecture behind it: real projects rarely keep these documents, and when they do they are outdated or private. code-theseus recovers them from the source code, at scale.

πŸ“¦ What's inside

Every repository comes with three aligned documents, generated from its dependency graph and key project files:

Document What it captures
🎯 intent The "initial prompt": mission, problem, capabilities, user workflows, quality expectations
πŸ“‹ requirements REQ-FUNC-* / REQ-NFR-* items with statement, rationale, acceptance criteria, verification method and priority
πŸ—οΈ architecture A C4 design (context, container, component) with Mermaid C4 diagrams

…plus the package-level dependency graph each document was generated from, and a link to the exact commit it describes. No source code is redistributed: check out url at commit_sha to recover it.

πŸ” Does it carry the design?

In the paper's Ship of Theseus test, a coding agent rebuilt Commit0 libraries from these documents alone. With requirements and architecture, it built a module structure significantly closer to the original than with intent alone (module F1 0.54 β†’ 0.63), at the same test pass rate.

🏒 Use it for

  • Fine-tuning models that write specs from code (graph β†’ intent, requirements, architecture) or code from specs.
  • Spec-driven coding agents. Realistic requirements and architecture briefs as agent inputs.
  • Evaluating the intermediate steps of multi-agent development, not just the final code.
  • Research on requirements engineering, software architecture recovery and traceability.

πŸš€ Quick start

from datasets import load_dataset

docs = load_dataset("anonymous/code-theseus", "documents", split="train")
repos = load_dataset("anonymous/code-theseus", "repos", split="train")
graphs = dict(zip(repos["repo_id"], repos["arcan_graph"]))
graph = graphs[docs[0]["repo_id"]]  # input graph for the first document

πŸ—‚οΈ Configs

documents (21,623 rows): one row per (repository, generator)

column description
repo_id owner|repo; join key to repos
generator gemma-4-31b-it / qwen3.5-122b-a10b
checkpoint Hugging Face checkpoint served with vLLM
intent, requirements, architecture generated Markdown; null if missing, truncated or empty (56 docs)
reasoning_* the generator's thinking trace (Qwen only, null otherwise)

repos (10,813 rows): one row per repository

column description
repo_id owner|repo
branch main (GitHub corpus) or commit0 (Commit0 libraries)
url GitHub URL
commit_sha analysed commit; documents describe the repository at this commit
language, description, stars GitHub metadata at collection time
arcan_graph package-level dependency graph from Arcan: nodes (vertex_id, name, component_type, fan_in, fan_out, lines_of_code, pagerank) and weighted edges (source/target are vertex_ids)
