ACE: Self-Evolving LLM Coding Framework via Adversarial Unit Test Generation and Preference Optimization

Yixu Huang, Xinglei Yu, Zhongyu Wei

CE is a self-evolving LLM coding framework that addresses the limitations of existing methods by using a solver-adversary architecture. It leverages adversarial unit test generation, where a single LLM generates both candidate code and test inputs designed to trigger execution failures. This execution-centric supervision allows the model to actively discover and correct its own errors, leading to more robust code generation without relying on large annotated datasets.

Comparison between verifiable and adversarial unit tests. (a) An illustrative example where a verifiable unit test passes successfully but fails to reveal a latent bug in the flawed solution. The adversarial unit test, by contrast, induces a runtime error and directly exposes the incorrect assumption that every cycle has an incoming tree node. (b) Accuracy trends over training rounds under both solver-verifier and solver–adversary structures.

CODE-SHARP: Continuous Open-ended Discovery and Evolution of Skills as Hierarchical Reward Programs

Richard Bornemann, Pierluigi Vito Amadori et al.

CODE-SHARP is a framework that uses Foundation Models to autonomously discover and evolve a library of Python programs (SHARPs). These SHARPs encode skills as hierarchical reward programs, where each program defines a success condition and relies on previously…

CODE-SHARP consists of two FM-driven iterative processes that discover and evolve skill encoding SHARPs. The skill proposal generator , implementor , and judge generate and filter novel SHARPs before environment evaluation. The skill mutation generator and implementor produce mutated versions of existing SHARPs, evaluated directly in the environment.
