Squeez: Task-Conditioned Tool-Output Pruning for Coding Agents

Pruning long context for coding agents has been a vital technology for efficient context management. While existing context pruning methods such as SWE-Pruner realize this by attaching a separate code classifier, we find the agent itself encodes internal representations indicating the relevance of code context when reading tool output. Based on this finding, we propose SWE-Pruner Pro, which prunes tool outputs directly inside the agent. Concretely, a small head turns the agent's own internal representations into a keep-or-prune label for each line, with a length-aware embedding keyed to each tool output's line count. Across two open-weight backbones and four multi-turn benchmarks, SWE-Pruner Pro saves up to 39% of prompt and completion tokens while preserving task quality, with bounded inference overhead. Notably, on MiMo-V2-Flash SWE-Pruner Pro additionally raises the SWE-Bench Verified resolve rate by +3.8% and the long-context Oolong accuracy by +2.2 points.

Coding agents re-send large file reads and tool outputs to a frontier LLM every turn, and this context dominates their token bill. General-purpose prompt compressors are trained on prose and suit code poorly: they paraphrase identifiers and drop the exact spans an agent needs to edit. We present Paritok-4B, a 4B LoRA compressor for coding-agent trajectories built on two commitments. It is extractive: it selects spans rather than rewriting them, and 96.0% of the identifiers, paths, and numbers it emits already appear in its input, holding at 96.2% on held-out SWE-bench Lite output. It is intent-conditioned: told the agent's current task, it acts chiefly inside a retained segment, selecting which lines survive (retained lines are +0.067 more intent-relevant than removed ones, paired 95% CI [+0.056, +0.078]) rather than changing how much is retained. We distil a gpt-4.1-mini teacher over 67,074 real OpenHands trajectories into 40,606 validated examples and fine-tune Qwen3-4B. On all 300 SWE-bench Lite instances, Paritok-4B compresses agent context to 25.7% of its size, 2.0x harder than a gpt-4.1-mini compressor (50.2%) and 2.4x harder than gpt-5 (61.9%), while retaining 86.5% of uncompressed single-shot solve quality. Fed the cat -n line-numbered input real agents produce, it compresses slightly less (27.8%) and retains more (89.3%); there the paired test is informative, with 30 instances solved only uncompressed and 17 only compressed, an exact McNemar p=0.079, so at this sample size compressing context to roughly a quarter of its size does not significantly reduce the solve rate. The model is a 264 MB adapter that self-hosts on one 24 GB GPU with no per-token compressor fee, which at list prices decides the economics: gpt-5 as a compressor is net-negative, costing more than the downstream tokens it saves. Weights, data, and evaluation scripts are open (Apache 2.0).

We present Qwen3-Coder-Next, an open-weight language model specialized for coding agents. Qwen3-Coder-Next is an 80-billion-parameter model that activates only 3 billion parameters during inference, enabling strong coding capability with efficient inference. In this work, we explore how far strong training recipes can push the capability limits of models with small parameter footprints. To achieve this, we perform agentic training through large-scale synthesis of verifiable coding tasks paired with executable environments, allowing learning directly from environment feedback via mid-training and reinforcement learning. Across agent-centric benchmarks including SWE-Bench and Terminal-Bench, Qwen3-Coder-Next achieves competitive performance relative to its active parameter count. We release both base and instruction-tuned open-weight versions to support research and real-world coding agent development.
