Villani Code is a local-first coding-agent runtime designed to make smaller open models do real repository work: navigate files, run commands, make patches, survive verification, and keep working through messy terminal environments. The thesis is simple: small models do not just need better weights. They need a better runtime. Terminal-Bench 2.0: Qwen3.6 27B full-suite run Villani Code achieved a 196/445 lower-bound score on the full Terminal-Bench 2.0 suite using Qwen3.6 27B . That is 44.0% across 89 tasks with 5 attempts per task . Headline result System Model Terminal-Bench 2.0 accuracy --- --- ---: Codex CLI GPT-5-Codex 44.3% Villani Code Qwen3.6 27B 44.0% Mini-SWE-Agent GPT-5-Codex 41.3% Claude Code Claude Sonnet 4.5 40.1% Dakou Agent Qwen 3 Coder 480B 27.2% little-coder Qwen3.6-35B-A3B 24.6% Bash Agent TermiGen-32B 19.3% little-coder Qwen3.5-9B 9.2% Villani Code lands within 0.3 percentage points of Codex CLI + GPT-5-Codex and ahead of Claude Code + Claude Sonnet 4.5, while running a much smaller local Qwen model. Full report The full visual report is available here: Villani Code Terminal-Bench 2.0 Qwen3.6 27B Report Run status: self-run lower-bound benchmark result, not yet Terminal-Bench team verified. Why this matters Most coding-agent performance is attributed to the foundation model. Villani Code shows the runtime can move the frontier too. The runner matters. Tool handling matters.
