Terminal Bench 4.0 just dropped, GLM-5.3 is at the same level as Fable 5, accounting for margin of error

Summary

Terminal Bench 4.0 has been released, comparing AI models like GLM-5.3 and Fable 5, with a focus on rapid iteration to combat benchmark saturation and raising questions about cost-effective alternatives for evaluating coding agents.

Announcement: https://www.tbench.ai/news/terminal-bench-4-0 Leaderboard: https://www.tbench.ai/ Imo the best aspect in their announcement is their focus on rapidly iterating on TerminalBench to keep the pace up with new model releases to fight benchmark saturation. On a similar note, what cheaper/smaller alternatives are there to benchmarking coding agents or your own harness? Large benchmarks like this take 5-10B tokens, which is not economically/computationally feasible for the vast majority of us. I'd love to objectively measure how my skills/harness/tools/etc change token usage and success probability on general coding tasks, there has to be a way to do this to at least give an idea or general direction, without requiring billions of tokens for each run.
