IOI v2 (Vals)

GPT-6 Astra 100% leads since Oct 2026 Not in model cards

Agents solve 18 International Olympiad in Informatics problems from 2024, 2025 and 2026 in C++ inside OpenCode. Official tests and graders score the final solution by subtask after the run.

Unlike v1 there is no interactive grading tool, and Vals says the two harnesses are not comparable. Score is the mean of three yearly scores. Released between 2026-08-09 and 2026-10-29.

No lab model card reports it yet

We read the headline results of 479 launch posts from 51 labs, and none of them list this benchmark.

Versions

We switch the top row to each new version when it comes out. Open it for one row per version. An old version stays in play while people still test it, so whoever first takes it past 85% gets credit for closing it out.
