SpaceXAI MTS Eval
Agents do model-development tasks from xAI engineers, such as diagnosing reward hacking and debugging training infrastructure, under fixed budgets.
In-house xAI evaluation with 29 tasks in the standard non-GPU suite.

Grok 4.6 leads with 61.1%
Best score per model as labs report them in their own cards. Labs pick their own settings, so these compare less cleanly than independent runs.

Scores over time
All the scores we have, one dot each, so a model tested at several settings appears more than once.

Labs report it only in system cards
We read the headline results of 522 launch posts from 52 labs, and none of them list this benchmark. Some system cards do, below.
2 system cards report it, from 1 lab
Besides launch posts, we read the system cards, model cards and technical reports labs publish with a release. They report far more, including safety and frontier-risk tests.
