## Software

Bichel, Y. (2026). *python-vibe* [Computer software].
<https://github.com/YauhenBichel/python-vibe>

## This measurement

Bichel, Y. (2026, September 5). 0.5B exact-stdout eval.
In *python-vibe* experiments.
<https://yauhenbichel.github.io/python-vibe/investigations/held-out-exec-eval/>

Eighteen held-out scripts, three repeats, Ollama `qwen2.5-coder:0.5b`:
**7 / 54** base, **12 / 54** after one traceback repair.

The full table of laptop runs:
[Experiments]({{ '/investigations/experiments/' | relative_url }}).

## Sample-and-run

Bichel, Y. (2026, September 5). 0.5B sample-and-run.
In *python-vibe* experiments.
<https://yauhenbichel.github.io/python-vibe/investigations/sample-and-run/>

Same 18 scripts on MLX Qwen2.5-Coder-0.5B-Instruct-4bit. Four drafts
at temperature 0.7: **6 / 18** base, **9 / 18** with one repair,
**2 / 18** LoRA, **6 / 18** LoRA with repair. Greedy (temperature 0,
three repeats): **2 / 18** unique tasks on base, **3 / 18** with
repair, **0 / 54** LoRA. Later the same day, four drafts plus
`datetime` prepend and an 8B hint: **12 / 18**. Zero of those
twelve were a hint-repair.
