About this paper

Jorge García-Carrasco, Sergio García-Carrasco, Alejandro Maté, Juan Trujillo

The authors introduce a benchmark for whether firmware agents can verify and repair controller behavior, rather than merely write plausible code. Agents receive a prose handoff and use a constrained workspace to edit and test firmware in simulation before hidden evaluation. Hosted gpt-5.4 passes 14/15 runs (93.3%); qwen3.5-27B passes 9/15 (60.0%). Results are limited to a small, simulated control suite.
