arXiv:2609.29754v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Current multimodal software-engineering benchmarks expose images as additional context, but do not test whether an agent can integrate evidence distributed across images into a verified repository-level repair. We present SWE-PolyVision, an executable benchmark of 92 real tasks from 36 open-source organizations, with 48 public tasks and 44 private holdouts. The release contains 402 static images and 6 videos, with at least two visual inputs per task. Each task pairs a fixed pre-fix repository with an isolated verifier and is evaluated under the supported conditions among three access modes: Text-only, Native Vision, and Tool-mediated Vision. Across eleven coding models, visual access changes which tasks are solved, but effects depend on both model and task. Two trace-linked Native Vision cases illustrate how complementary visual and textual clues can lead to source-localized, verified repairs; controlled interventions show that this conversion is not yet stable across inputs. SWE-PolyVision thus separates the availability of multi-image evidence from its successful use in repository-level repair, without treating patch success alone as proof of explicit reasoning.
