Description
SWE-2 is a software engineering model from Cognition built for agentic coding tasks that require strong performance at lower computational and monetary cost. It is post-trained from the Kimi K3 base model and extends Cognition’s earlier SWE-1.7 training approach with a new reinforcement learning method for jointly optimizing multiple reasoning-effort settings. Medium, high, and maximum effort modes provide different tradeoffs between speed, cost, exploration, and verification depending on task complexity. The model is trained to inspect only the parts of a codebase that are likely to matter, helping it reach implementation faster and reduce unnecessary exploration. SWE-2 can generate and modify code, run tests, analyze repositories, work through terminal tasks, and verify whether implementations satisfy user requirements. Cognition also reports improvements in end-to-end test creation, regression detection, instruction following, and re-deriving conclusions when challenged. Its training process incorporates cost-aware rewards, length-weighted reward baselines, expanded reinforcement learning environments, and hardened verifiers intended to improve both efficiency and reliability. SWE-2 is positioned as a cost-efficient alternative to larger frontier coding models while remaining competitive on software engineering benchmarks such as FrontierCode, DeepSWE, and Terminal-Bench. The model is available in Devin Desktop and Devin CLI and is being introduced to additional Cognition products including Devin Web and Fusion.
Description
SWE-2 Flash is a high-speed AI software engineering model developed by Cognition for automated coding, development workflows, and technical problem-solving. The model is based on Inkling-Small from Thinking Machines and uses a mixture-of-experts architecture containing 276 billion total parameters and 12 billion active parameters. Cognition applies large-scale mid-training and reinforcement learning to improve the model's programming accuracy, reasoning capabilities, and ability to complete complex software engineering tasks. SWE-2 Flash supports code generation, repository maintenance, automated code reviews, feature implementation, documentation updates, and agent-driven software development. Its optimized architecture delivers approximately 200 tokens per second, making it three times faster than SWE-2 while operating at one-fifth the inference cost. The model achieved a score of 24.0% on FrontierCode 2.0, 45.5% on FrontierCode 1.1 Main, and 89.2% on Terminal-Bench 2.1 in Cognition's published evaluations. Training improvements also target general reasoning, problem-solving, and cybersecurity tasks to expand the range of activities supported by autonomous coding agents. SWE-2 Flash is available in Devin Desktop and CLI, allowing developers to incorporate the model into interactive and automated software engineering workflows. Cognition is also developing a controlled model-weight access program for trusted industry partners and researchers interested in fine-tuning, infrastructure control, and deployment in sensitive environments.
