Benchmark-level evidence
These are individual benchmarks, not collection rollups. Scores remain on their original scales, and agent or harness results stay labelled as system configurations.
Spring Prompt benchmark

Mean prediction score
Can LLMs anticipate next week’s Guardian agenda from last week’s coverage?
This benchmark is not on a weekly live cadence yet. The table and charts reflect a single multi-model comparison on one forecast window—a pilot snapshot, not an updating leaderboard. The evaluation setup (clustering, prompts, automated judge, and scoring checks) is still being refined; reported scores and details may change as we improve the pipeline.

Average ROASBench score
A 12-month performance-marketing simulation scored on business outcomes, planning, behavior, and persona fit.
MoonshotAI: Kimi K2.5

source-native benchmark
68.8%
OpenHands SWE-Bench resolved
Direct OpenHands SWE-Bench outcomes for resolving real repository issues with a pinned OpenHands agent and language-model configuration.
Scores are official OpenHands SWE-Bench resolved percentages for exact OpenHands and model configurations, not bare-model scores or SpringPrompt predictions. Twenty-nine exact task sidecars support marginal 95% bootstrap score intervals; five rows explicitly have no interval. No full-cohort rank confidence is claimed.

Early-user signal
A paraphrased editorial synthesis of 4 Reddit discussions created in the 14 days after launch (27 Jan 2026 to 10 Feb 2026). Anecdotal context only — it never affects scores or rankings.
The search-indexed launch-window sample treated Kimi K2.5 as a capable open-weight option for coding, vision, and agent workflows, particularly when instructions were explicit. Recurring limitations included uneven non-coding style, occasional hallucination reports in particular hosts, and hardware demands that placed meaningful self-hosting outside ordinary consumer setups.
Independent early-test signal
An editorial paraphrase of 2 launch-window field tests from 2 independent authors on X, including 2 reports with a described method or inspectable artifact. The window runs from 27 Jan 2026 up to 10 Feb 2026, and exact model identity was editor reviewed.
Early Kimi K2.5 field reports highlighted multimodal tool use and parallel-agent workflows. One tester exercised more than one hundred interleaved image and tool calls, while another used the model in Kimi Code for parallel research and software work and found that software tasks benefited from more deliberate system prompts and sub-agent coordination. The evidence suggests high orchestration potential with host and configuration sensitivity.
These reports are selectively surfaced and are not a representative sample. They never affect benchmark scores, rankings, winners, or comparison outcomes.
Business Skills V3 · proposed
The setup below is proposed and may change until preflight and execution approval are complete. Existing benchmark evidence above does not authorize or stand in for a Business Skills V3 result.

Model comparisons
Editorially reviewed comparisons appear first. Every page matches only benchmark records with the same reviewed protocol key and does not manufacture an overall winner.

Stable family URL
New reviewed benchmark snapshots, operational facts, community themes, and early field-test syntheses can be added here while the canonical model-family identity remains fixed.
