Moatless Tree Search

Code for paper SWE-Search: Enhancing Software Agents with Monte Carlo Tree Search and Iterative Refinement

Note: The original development code can be found at github.com/a-antoniades/swe-search. It is only intended for reproducing the results in the paper. This is a clean refactor with a modular design, which will be maintained and extended.

Overview of SWE-Search showing the tree search process, where states (nodes) and actions (edges) are evaluated using contextual information and value function feedback to guide expansion.

Installation

Install the package:

pip install moatless-tree-search

Environment Setup

Before running the evaluation, you'll need:

1. At least one LLM provider API key (e.g., OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.)
2. A Voyage AI API key from voyageai.com to use the pre-embedded vector stores for SWE-Bench instances.
3. (Optional) Access to a testbed environment - see moatless-testbeds for setup instructions

You can configure these settings by either:

1. Create a .env file in the project root (copy from .env.example):

   cp .env.example .env
   # Edit .env with your values
   

2. Or export the variables directly:

   # Directory for storing vector index store files  
   export INDEX_STORE_DIR="/tmp/index_store"    
   
   # Directory for storing clonedrepositories 
   export REPO_DIR="/tmp/repos"
   
   # Required: At least one LLM provider API key
   export OPENAI_API_KEY="<your-key>"
   export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="<your-key>"
   export HUGGINGFACE_API_KEY="<your-key>"
   export DEEPSEEK_API_KEY="<your-key>"
   
   # ...or Base URL for custom LLM API service (optional)
   export CUSTOM_LLM_API_BASE="<your-base-url>"
   export CUSTOM_LLM_API_KEY="<your-key>"
   
   # Required: API Key for Voyage Embeddings
   export VOYAGE_API_KEY="<your-key>"
   
   # Optional: Configuration for testbed environment (https://github.com/aorwall/moatless-testbeds)
   export TESTBED_API_KEY="<your-key>"
   export TESTBED_BASE_URL="<your-base-url>"
   

Streamlit

To launch the Streamlit app, run:

# Launch with direct file loading
moatless-streamlit path/to/trajectory.json

# Launch interactive UI (file can be selected in browser)
moatless-streamlit

The following badges are used to indicate the status of a node:

Badge	Shape	Color	Description
⭐	Star	Green	Node is marked as resolved
❌	X	Red	Invalid edits or failed tests
🟢	Circle	Green	Correct code spans present in the context
🟡	Circle	Yellow	Either: • Found files but not spans • Found spans but in wrong files

Evaluation

To run the evaluation script

moatless-evaluate \
    --model "gpt-4o-mini" \
    --repo_base_dir /tmp/repos \
    --eval_dir "./evaluations" \
    --eval_name mts \
    --temp 0.7 \
    --num_workers 1 \
    --use_testbed \
    --feedback \
    --max_iterations 100 \
    --max_expansions 5

You can optionally set the --instance_ids to evaluate on a specific instance or a list of instances.

Use --use_testbed if you got access to a testbed environment. Otherwise, tests will not be run.
