!!! warning "We recommend mini-swe-agent instead of SWE-agent" Most of our current development effort is on mini-swe-agent, which has superseded SWE-agent. It matches the performance of SWE-agent, while being much simpler. See the FAQ for more details about the differences.
SWE-agent enables your language model of choice (e.g. GPT-4o or Claude Sonnet 4) to autonomously use tools to fix issues in real GitHub repositories, find cybersecurity vulnerabilities, or perform any custom task.
yaml fileSWE-agent is built and maintained by researchers from Princeton University and Stanford University.
