What is Codeforces?

Codeforces evaluates models on competition-level programming problems from the Codeforces platform, reporting human-comparable Elo ratings.

  • Coding mostly

    “standardize a CodeForces evaluation benchmark to assess the competition-level coding capabilities of LLMs and reflect their corresponding sophisticated reasoning abilities.”

Lineage

Benchmarks this one is built on and built from: versions, subsets, extensions and the indexes that combine them.

Derived benchmarks

Tier B

B

Established: 15 or more models scored, or curated RL directories rate it.

How much stands behind a tier: usage, who backs it, a confirmed line from its own site or paper, and a clear read on X. High with three of the four, medium with two, low otherwise.

  • no usage data
  • in curated RL directories (1 pt)
  • its family includes Codeforces ELO (tier A)

On X · unclear, low buzz, from 1 post about Codeforces in the last month

Codeforces shows up mainly as one row in DeepSeek model-card score tables, with little discussion of the benchmark's own quality or reliability.

How we got to tier B
  1. Adoption: no usage data. Tier D.
  2. On X: unclear, low buzz. “Codeforces shows up mainly as one row in DeepSeek model-card score tables, with little discussion of the benchmark's own quality or reliability.” No move.
  3. In curated RL directories: 1 point, a floor of none.
  4. Root of a benchmark family that includes Codeforces ELO (tier A): raised to B, one step below.
  5. Confirmed: a line from its own site or paper places it.

A clear view on X moves a tier one step up or down; most entries don't move. How tiers work.
