AA Coding Agent Index: Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index

Metric: Index score (higher is better)Introduced: 2026

Composite coding-agent index published by Artificial Analysis. GPT-5.6 launch cites v1.1 scores at max reasoning; treat OpenAI-cited values as medium confidence until independently confirmed on the Artificial Analysis leaderboard. High benchmark score alone doesn't make a model the right pick — weigh it against pricing, API availability, and release date.

How to read this benchmark

This benchmark scores models where higher is better. Scores are useful for directional filtering and shortlisting — not for universal quality ranking. Prefer benchmarks closest to your workload, then validate the linked model pages for pricing, context window, and provider availability.

Trust this score when

  • There is a fresh timestamped snapshot (or multiple snapshots) for this benchmark.
  • The model list covers the same version family you can actually deploy today.
  • Top candidates overlap with your required routing and feature requirements.

Be cautious when

  • There is only one benchmark snapshot or the dataset appears stale.
  • The benchmark metric direction is opposite of your decision objective.
  • The score difference between options is narrow and likely within implementation variance.

FAQ

What does the AA Coding Agent Index benchmark measure?

Composite coding-agent index published by Artificial Analysis. GPT-5.6 launch cites v1.1 scores at max reasoning; treat OpenAI-cited values as medium confidence until independently confirmed on the Artificial Analysis leaderboard. On this page it ranks 1 tracked model where higher is better.

Is a higher Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index score always better?

For this benchmark, higher is better. A high score helps you shortlist, but confirm pricing, context window, and provider availability on each model page before committing — the top scorer is not always the right pick for your workload or budget.

How current is this Artificial Analysis Coding Agent Index data?

This benchmark was last reviewed on Jul 9, 2026. Re-check the linked model pages for the freshest provider and pricing detail.
