SummarySourcegraph analyzed 1,281 agent runs across 40+ large open source repositories and identified five recurring failure patterns in coding agents, along with specific infrastructure fixes for each pattern.
Why it mattersDataset of over a thousand agent runs with named failure modes and matched infrastructure fixes; concrete material for anyone deploying coding agents against real codebases.
