An AI coding agent benchmark designed to test dependency tracking in codebases revealed a critical flaw in using AI judges for evaluation. The AI judge, when assessing an agent's audit, incorrectly labeled a half-complete analysis as 'exhaustive' because it lacked a reference point for completeness. The issue was resolved by providing the AI judge with a manually created answer key, allowing it to accurately score the audits based on a known correct output. AI
