DataClawEval

Tasks Evaluated Models License Paper arXiv

An executable benchmark for end-to-end data-engineering agents in industrial environments.

DataClawEval measures an autonomous agent's ability to inspect data, implement and debug pipelines, and materialize correct artifacts in realistic data-engineering workflows. It contains 100 production-grounded tasks across five execution engines: PySpark, MySQL, HiveSQL, PrestoSQL/Trino, and FlinkSQL. Each task runs in an isolated Docker sandbox and is evaluated by a case-specific, deterministic, rule-based grader.


What's Inside

  • Production-grounded tasks — 100 end-to-end tasks reconstructed from production-grade implementations written by professional enterprise data engineers and validated through execution checks, expert perturbations, and expert review.
  • Batch and streaming coverage — batch transformations in PySpark, MySQL, HiveSQL, and PrestoSQL/Trino, plus streaming-oriented FlinkSQL tasks involving event time, watermarks, windows, joins, and aggregations.
  • End-to-end agent workflows — schema inspection, data exploration, implementation, execution, debugging, output validation, and artifact materialization.
  • Artifact- and process-oriented grading — task-specific graders assess executable outputs and engineering behaviors such as exploration, execution efficiency, and self-verification.
  • Reproducible environments — every run starts in a fresh container with task-specific data, services, execution engines, and deterministic initialization.
  • Flexible agent integration — run evaluations with the codebuddy, claude-code, or codex backend. The paper evaluates 16 model configurations through a unified CodeBuddy scaffold.
  • Batch experiments — evaluate one or more engines in parallel and generate combined reports.

Task Suite

Execution engine Workload Tasks
PySpark Batch (offline-compute) 20
MySQL Batch (offline-compute) 20
HiveSQL Batch (offline-compute) 28
PrestoSQL/Trino Batch (offline-compute) 12
FlinkSQL Streaming (online-compute) 20
Total 100

The suite is also balanced between 50 English and 50 Chinese task prompts and covers five business domains: Ops & Resource Governance (30), Data Analytics & User Growth (30), Security & Risk Control (16), Content, Community & Dev-Efficiency (14), and Advertising & Marketing (10).

Each task lives in tasks/<workload>/<engine>/<task_id>/ and contains:

  • task.md — the natural-language request and metadata such as timeout and engine
  • init/ — initialization or verification assets; batch tasks initialize tables here, while FlinkSQL tasks generally define generated streaming inputs in the submitted SQL
  • gt/ — the reference implementation and task-specific grade.py used during evaluation

How It Works

For every model–task run, the harness:

  1. Starts a fresh Docker container from the configured DOCKER_IMAGE.
  2. Starts the services required by the selected engine and initializes task-specific inputs.
  3. Prepares the agent workspace with the task prompt and engineering tools.
  4. Runs the selected agent backend and records its execution trajectory.
  5. Loads gt/ after agent execution and runs the task-specific grader in the same container.
  6. Collects the submitted solution files, workspace snapshot, scores, usage data, and execution transcript into output/, then removes the container.

Requirements

Component Requirement
Docker Docker CLI and a running daemon
Python Python 3.11 on the host; the scripts invoke python3.11
Storage Enough free space for the multi-engine image and task outputs
Model access Credentials and network access for the selected agent backend

The evaluation image provides a ready-to-use multi-engine environment with Spark 3.5.0, Flink 1.18.1, Trino 435, MySQL, a Hive Metastore, Python 3.11.13, and the supported agent runtimes.


Quick Start

0. Verify prerequisites

Make sure Docker is installed and running, and that Python 3.11 is available.

docker version          # verifies the Docker CLI and daemon connection
python3.11 --version    # Python 3.11 is required

1. Install Python dependencies

python3.11 -m pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Get the evaluation image

You have two options.

Option A — Pull the prebuilt image (recommended)

Skip the local build and pull the ready-made image from the registry:

docker pull dicemy/dataclaweval:v1.0
docker tag dicemy/dataclaweval:v1.0 dataclaw-eval:v1.0   # match DOCKER_IMAGE in .env

The default DOCKER_IMAGE in .env is dataclaw-eval:v1.0. Either retag the pulled image as shown above, or set DOCKER_IMAGE=dicemy/dataclaweval:v1.0 in your .env.

Option B — Build locally

prepare.sh vendors the installed CodeBuddy Agent SDK and builds the dataclaw-eval:v1.0 evaluation image.

bash script/prepare.sh

3. Configure credentials

Copy the example env file and fill in the values for the agent backend you plan to use.

cp .env.example .env

Then edit .env:

DOCKER_IMAGE=dataclaw-eval:v1.0

# CodeBuddy auth (required for the `codebuddy` harness)
CODEBUDDY_AUTH_TOKEN=
CODEBUDDY_API_KEY=
CODEBUDDY_INTERNET_ENVIRONMENT=ioa   # public | internal | ioa

# OpenRouter (required for `claude-code` and `codex` harnesses)
OPENROUTER_API_KEY=
OPENROUTER_BASE_URL=https://openrouter.ai/api/v1

Get a CodeBuddy API key: overseas → https://www.codebuddy.ai/profile/keys · China → https://copilot.tencent.com/profile/ · iOA (Tencent staff) → https://tencent.sso.copilot.tencent.com/profile/keys. Set CODEBUDDY_INTERNET_ENVIRONMENT to match your account type.

4. Run the evaluation

# Run a single execution engine
bash script/run_batch.sh -P     # PySpark
bash script/run_batch.sh -M     # MySQL
bash script/run_batch.sh -H     # HiveSQL
bash script/run_batch.sh -F     # FlinkSQL
bash script/run_batch.sh -PR    # PrestoSQL/Trino

# Run workload groups
bash script/run_batch.sh -offline   # PySpark + MySQL + HiveSQL + PrestoSQL/Trino
bash script/run_batch.sh -online    # FlinkSQL
bash script/run_batch.sh -all       # all 100 tasks

Use script/run_batch.sh -all to evaluate the complete 100-task suite. Results and a combined report are written to output/.


Usage Reference

run_batch.sh options:

Flag / Option Description
-P -M -H -F -PR Select PySpark / MySQL / HiveSQL / FlinkSQL / PrestoSQL/Trino
-offline -online -all Run predefined workload groups
--parallel N Number of tasks to run concurrently (default: 10)
--harness NAME Agent backend: codebuddy (default), claude-code, codex
--model MODEL Model name (repeatable, codebuddy only) for multi-model runs

Examples:

# PySpark with 5 workers
bash script/run_batch.sh -P --parallel 5

# Use the Claude Code harness
bash script/run_batch.sh -P --harness claude-code

# Compare two CodeBuddy models on PySpark
bash script/run_batch.sh -P --model model_a --model model_b

To run a single task directly (bypassing batch mode):

python3.11 eval/run_batch.py \
  --agent-backend codebuddy \
  --task tasks/offline-compute/PySpark/pyspark_001/task.md \
  --model deepseek-v4-flash-ioa

Output & Scoring

Each run is saved under output/<harness>/<category>/<task_id>/<run_suffix>/ with the submitted solution, workspace snapshot, transcript, usage statistics, and score.json.

DataClawEval evaluates both the final data product and the engineering workflow:

  • Artifact quality — executability, schema correctness, row-level alignment, numerical accuracy, and categorical or business correctness.
  • Process quality — exploration adequacy, execution efficiency, and self-verification.

The overall score combines both dimensions:

[ S = \alpha S_{artifact} + (1-\alpha)S_{process} ]

The artifact weight (\alpha) is configured per task, with 0.7 as the most common value. Repository outputs normalize overall_score to 0–1, while the paper presents scores on a 0–100 scale.

Batch runs aggregate model and engine summaries into output/experiment_report_<timestamp>.json and report the average score and the number of tasks with overall_score >= 0.5:

  Category/Model                            Tasks  Avg Score  Pass(>=0.5)
  offline-compute/PySpark/model_a              20     0.7350        15/20

Paper Results

The paper evaluates 16 model configurations from eight families on all 100 tasks: 1,600 primary runs in total. Every model uses the same fixed Tencent CodeBuddy scaffold, and only the underlying LLM changes. The primary table uses one run per model–task pair; task prompts are evenly split between English and Chinese (50 each).

Model Overall score (0–100) Avg. tokens/task
GPT 5.5 74.9 299.8k
Claude Opus 4.8 74.3 318.3k
Claude Sonnet 5 73.8 457.9k
Gemini 3.1 Pro 73.7 292.4k
Gemini 3.5 Flash 73.3 973.8k
DeepSeek V4 Flash 73.0 419.6k
MiniMax M3 71.8 714.1k
GLM 5.1 71.6 355.4k
DeepSeek V4 Pro 70.6 359.3k
Kimi K2.6 69.0 428.8k
GLM 5.2 68.8 403.9k
Kimi K2.7 68.1 407.5k

Research highlights:

  • GPT 5.5 achieves the highest overall score at 74.9.
  • Engine-level results reveal complementary strengths: Claude Opus 4.8 leads PySpark; GPT 5.5 leads HiveSQL and MySQL; DeepSeek V4 Pro and Gemini 3.5 Flash tie on PrestoSQL/Trino; and DeepSeek V4 Flash leads FlinkSQL.
  • Token and tool-call analyses identify models that combine strong task performance with efficient agent execution.
  • Repeated-run experiments add execution consistency as a first-class evaluation dimension.
  • Execution-grounded, rule-based graders provide stable, case-specific assessment of both generated artifacts and engineering processes.
