Bash — per-model detail

Every failing sample below is the real generated shell script, with the stdout/exit-code mismatch that rejected it. Trial 0 runs at temperature 0, trials 1 and 2 at 0.7 — so a task passing 1/3 is a sampling-luck pass, not a reliable one. Models are ordered best first. Other technologies: C · Python · Bash · research · how to reproduce.

Reproduce this benchmark

Setup and model serving are on the models index — including a script-free version using nothing but curl and a compiler; with a server running, this is the exact command that produced the samples below:

# Bash suite (8 easy + 3 hard tasks, 3 trials each)
python scripts/eval_bash.py --target <model> --set all --trials 3 \
    --dump-failures results/failures
python scripts/eval_bash.py --target <model> --set brutal --trials 3 \
    --dump-failures results/failures --json > results/<model>-brutal-bash.json
# stdout must match exactly and the exit code must be 0.

largest_file — 0/3 passed
prompt sent to the model
Implement in bash: `largest_file <dir>`. Prints the path of the largest regular file under <dir> (recursive). Exactly one line, the path.
Reply with only a bash code block defining the function. No tests, no explanation.

prompt sent to the model
Implement in bash: `rotate <file>`. Rotates logs one level: <file>.1 becomes <file>.2, then <file> becomes <file>.1. If <file>.1 does not exist, just rename <file> to <file>.1.
Reply with only a bash code block defining the function. No tests, no explanation.

Implement in bash: `top_errors <logfile> <n>`. Prints the n most frequent ERROR signatures in <logfile>. A signature is the text after 'ERROR: ' with every run of digits replaced by '#'. Output one per line as '<count> <signature>', sorted by count descending, then signature ascending. Print nothing if there are no ERROR lines.

Implement in bash: `top_errors <logfile> <n>`. Prints the n most frequent ERROR signatures in <logfile>. A signature is the text after 'ERROR: ' with every run of digits replaced by '#'. Output one per line as '<count> <signature>', sorted by count descending, then signature ascending. Print nothing if there are no ERROR lines.

backup_rotate — 0/3 passed
prompt sent to the model
Implement in bash: `backup_rotate <dir> <keep>`. In <dir>, deletes all but the <keep> newest files matching backup-*.tar.gz (newest = lexicographically greatest names). Prints each deleted file's name (not path), one per line, oldest first. Deletes nothing if there are <= <keep> backups (prints nothing).
Reply with only a bash code block defining the function. No tests, no explanation.
