New taxonomy identifies prevalent 'LLM code smells' in software

Researchers have developed a new taxonomy and detection method for "LLM code smells," which are poor integration practices of large language models in software systems. Their static analysis tool, SpecDetect4LLM, was evaluated on over 690 open-source projects. The findings indicate that these code smells are prevalent, affecting over 73% of analyzed systems, with the detection tool achieving high precision. AI

    LLM Code Smells: A Taxonomy and Detection Approach

    arXiv:2605.22976v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly integrated into software systems for diverse purposes, due to their versatility, flexibility, and ability to simulate human reasoning to some extent. However, poor integration of LLM i…
