About PostTrainBench

PostTrainBench: Can LLM Agents Automate LLM Post-Training? We introduce PostTrainBench, a benchmark that measures the ability of CLI agents to post-train pre-trained large language models (LLMs). In PostTrainBench, the agent's task is to improve the performance of a base LLM on a given benchmark. The agent is given access to an evaluation script and 10 hours on an H100 GPU. Performance is measured by the benchmark score of the post-trained LLM. This setup naturally evaluates an agent's ability to conduct AI R&D. [!IMPORTANT] Harbor support coming soon! This repository currently targets our internal HPC cluster (HTCondor). We are adding Harbor support to make it straightforward to run on rented hardware (e.g., cloud GPUs). See our PR. Leaderboard Scores are weighted averages across 7 benchmarks and 4 models (Qwen3-1.7B, Qwen3-4B, SmolLM3-3B, and Gemma-3-4B). Agents with multiple runs show averaged results. 25.5

How this security grade is produced

Grades come from a rule-based scan built on the SlowMist agent-security taxonomy, covering 11 red-flag categories including credential harvesting, data exfiltration, and curl | sh installers. It is a first-layer scan, not a manual audit — we say so rather than overstate it.

The scale of the problem is documented independently: Liu et al. (2026), in a study of 31,132 agent skills, report that 26.1% contain security vulnerabilities. Our own full-catalog census is published as a citable open dataset.
