My favorite benchmark for LLMs and agents is to have it port a medium-complexity library to another programming language. If it can do that well, it's pretty capable of doing real tasks. So far, I always have to spend a lot of time fixing errors. There are also often deep issues that aren't obvious until you start using it.

Comments on here often criticise ports as easy for LLMs to do because there's a lot of training and tests are all there, which is not as complex as real word tasks
