Anthropic finds container resource limits can shift agentic coding eval scores

Anthropic reports that resource configuration alone can move Terminal-Bench 2.0 scores by up to 6 percentage points, with infra error rates falling from 5.8% under strict enforcement to 0.5% when uncapped. Above about 3x the per-task specs, extra headroom starts letting agents solve tasks they previously could not, so limits can change what the eval measures.
