SteelEnv H3+H4 Leaderboard
Agent benchmark on the two hardest SteelEnv tiers. 3 frontier models × 2 tiers × 2 repeats, 32-call budget.
SteelEnv tests whether an agent can turn a fabrication shop drawing into a buildable CadQuery solid, graded against the shop’s NC1 file. The main-set tiers (L0–L5) are published elsewhere; this page reports the H3 and H4 hard tiers only. H1/H2 and L0–L5 numbers are pending and will be added to this page as they land.
Headline: on H3 and H4 every frontier model we tried scored
0% full credit and 0% builds-ok across both repeats.
These two tiers are open headroom; no model in this batch cleared the gate.

Method
- Scoring. A task earns full credit only when the submitted solid passes all seven SteelEnv gates (thickness, outline bbox, outline shape, hole count, hole diameters, hole positions, volume).
pass@1is the mean full-credit rate across the two repeats;pass@2counts a task as solved if at least one of the two repeats earned full credit.builds-okis the share of rollouts where the submitted CadQuery program produced a single valid solid (the gate before any check runs). - Budget. b=32 (up to 32 API tool calls per task), toolset v2, two independent repeats (r0, r1) per model × tier.
- Cost. Mean
input×pin + output×poutper task, using Claude Opus 5.5 at $15 / $75 per 1M tokens, GPT-6 Astra at $3 / $15 per 1M, and Qwen3.8-27B via OpenRouter at $0.60 / $3 per 1M. Reasoning / cached tokens are not re-priced here. - Why zeros. H3 and H4 ship as the headroom tiers for the next model generation; these models were allowed to try the batch end to end, and the result is the honest zero above. Finer-grained diagnostics (which gate they fail, where the reasoning breaks down) are tracked in the paper, not on this page.
