The authors present ProgramGym, which builds behavior-checked training environments for source-free program reproduction and pairs them with a staged agent workflow. The workflow separates exploration, implementation, and review, while persistent records carry evidence between stages. On ProgramBench, Qwen3.8-27B with Program-Agent scores 55.71% Tests Passed versus 34.87% with Claude Code, but resolves only 0.50% of tasks.
