Code Benchmark Evaluation:
- [ ] Step 1: Choose benchmark suite
- [ ] Step 2: Configure model and generation
- [ ] Step 3: Run evaluation with code execution
- [ ] Step 4: Analyze pass@k results

# Standard HuggingFace model
accelerate launch main.py \
  --model bigcode/starcoder2-7b \
  --tasks humaneval \
  --max_length_generation 512 \
  --temperature 0.2 \
  --do_sample True \
  --n_samples 200 \
  --batch_size 50 \
  --allow_code_execution

# Quantized model (4-bit)
accelerate launch main.py \
  --model codellama/CodeLlama-34b-hf \
  --tasks humaneval \
  --load_in_4bit \
  --max_length_generation 512 \
  --allow_code_execution

# Custom/private model
accelerate launch main.py \
  --model /path/to/my-code-model \
  --tasks humaneval \
  --trust_remote_code \
  --use_auth_token \
  --allow_code_execution

# Full evaluation with pass@k estimation (k=1,10,100)
accelerate launch main.py \
  --model bigcode/starcoder2-7b \
  --tasks humaneval \
  --temperature 0.8 \
  --n_samples 200 \
  --batch_size 50 \
  --allow_code_execution \
  --save_generations \
  --metric_output_path results/starcoder2-humaneval.json

{
  "humaneval": {
    "pass@1": 0.354,
    "pass@10": 0.521,
    "pass@100": 0.689
  },
  "config": {
    "model": "bigcode/starcoder2-7b",
    "temperature": 0.8,
    "n_samples": 200
  }
}

Multi-Language Evaluation:
- [ ] Step 1: Generate solutions (host machine)
- [ ] Step 2: Run evaluation in Docker (safe execution)
- [ ] Step 3: Compare across languages

# Generate without execution (safe)
accelerate launch main.py \
  --model bigcode/starcoder2-7b \
  --tasks multiple-py,multiple-js,multiple-java,multiple-cpp \
  --max_length_generation 650 \
  --temperature 0.8 \
  --n_samples 50 \
  --batch_size 50 \
  --generation_only \
  --save_generations \
  --save_generations_path generations_multi.json

# Pull the MultiPL-E Docker image
docker pull ghcr.io/bigcode-project/evaluation-harness-multiple

# Run evaluation inside container
docker run -v $(pwd)/generations_multi.json:/app/generations.json:ro \
  -it evaluation-harness-multiple python3 main.py \
  --model bigcode/starcoder2-7b \
  --tasks multiple-py,multiple-js,multiple-java,multiple-cpp \
  --load_generations_path /app/generations.json \
  --allow_code_execution \
  --n_samples 50

Instruction Model Evaluation:
- [ ] Step 1: Use instruction-tuned tasks
- [ ] Step 2: Configure instruction tokens
- [ ] Step 3: Run evaluation

# For models with chat templates (e.g., CodeLlama-Instruct)
accelerate launch main.py \
  --model codellama/CodeLlama-7b-Instruct-hf \
  --tasks instruct-humaneval \
  --instruction_tokens "<s>[INST],</s>,[/INST]" \
  --max_length_generation 512 \
  --allow_code_execution

# Test code synthesis across 6 languages
accelerate launch main.py \
  --model codellama/CodeLlama-7b-Instruct-hf \
  --tasks humanevalsynthesize-python,humanevalsynthesize-js \
  --prompt instruct \
  --max_length_generation 512 \
