Overview of Tools

Since the SWE-Agent-7B and SWE-Agent-32B is trained on the following tools, we only support these tools in the SWE-MiniSandbox framework:

  - path: tools/registry
  - path: tools/edit_anthropic
  - path: tools/submit

Other tools is not ensured to work in the SWE-MiniSandbox framework. However, you can still try to add other tools by yourself. Just follow the instruction in the SWE-agent Configuring tools to add more tools.

The tool path in our project is :

  SWE-agent/
  ├── tools/   # tools for SWE-MiniSandbox
  ├── tool/    # tools for SWE-agent (Same as the original SWE-agent repo)

MiniSandbox Tools

Named tools under the SWE-agent project directory are modified to work in the SWE-MiniSandbox framework. The following tools are supported:

• Registry Tool
• Edit Anthropic Tool
• Submit Tool

Registry Tool

The Registry Tool is used to manage environment variables for the SWE-Agent. We change its default environment file path to /roots/.swe-agent-env because the root directory is mounted as read-only in the MiniSandbox framework. You can find the modified code in registry.py. You can also specify a custom environment file path by setting the SWE_AGENT_ENV_FILE environment variable.

Edit Anthropic Tool

The Edit Anthropic Tool allows the SWE-Agent to interact with file systems. We change the state path to /roots/state.json here (See in _state_anthropic)

Submit Tool

The Submit Tool is used to submit the task. Original submit script submit directly generates a patch file and echo <<SWE_AGENT_SUBMISSION>> (necessary for detecting submission in SWE-agent). In our implementation, we modify the submit script to only echo <<SWE_AGENT_SUBMISSION>>. The true path generation logic is moved to the MiniSandbox deployment implementation. You can find the implementation here:

get_patch(dir='/res.patch')

            if num_tries==max_num_tries:

            asyncio.run(asyncio.sleep(1))
    # output, _ = self.run("git diff")
    return output

Container Tools

We keep the original tools in the SWE-agent/tool/ directory for container deployment. These tools are not modified and work the same way as in the original SWE-agent repository.
