Verifiable Code Reasoning
Execution-verified Python problems with chain-of-thought
Sandbox-checked solutions · Multi-test unit checks · Deduplicated instances · Training-ready sft_text
Overview
Verifiable Code Reasoning is a large-scale dataset of Python coding problems where every kept solution has passed sandboxed unit tests.
Unlike scraped contest dumps or unverified LLM traces, an example enters this release only if:
- a reference implementation exists,
- it runs under a time-limited sandbox, and
- it matches expected outputs on at least 3 tests.
Failed executions are discarded. Near-duplicate instances are filtered by content fingerprint (signature + tests), so shared solution templates across different inputs are allowed, but repeated test instances are not.
| Property | Detail |
|---|---|
| Verification | Multiprocess sandbox, timeout, ≥3 tests |
| Dedup | Unique id + instance content hash (signature + tests) |
| Balance | Category & difficulty quotas during generation |
| Resume | Hub checkpoints: train.jsonl, progress.json |
| License | MIT |
Current release size: 1,500,000 verified examples (generation target 1,500,000).

## How it was built
1. **25** algorithmic generator families (arrays, strings, math, DP, greedy, binary search, bits, matrices, …)
2. Each example gets **≥3** unit tests (including varied inputs)
3. Solution is executed in a **sandbox**; mismatch / timeout / exception → drop
4. **Quotas** limit over-representation of a single category or difficulty
5. **Instance dedup** on signature+tests fingerprint (unrepeatable test cases)
6. Multi-session scale via Hugging Face checkpoints every 2000 new verifies
---
## Intended uses
- Supervised fine-tuning on **code + reasoning**
- Process / outcome supervision signals (execution as ground truth)
- Filtering or ranking other synthetic coding traces
## Out of scope / limitations
- Coverage is bounded by the **generator bank** (not full competitive-programming breadth)
- **Python only** in this release
- Synthetic style can still be distributionally narrow — always evaluate models on real benchmarks (HumanEval, MBPP, LiveCodeBench, etc.)
- Not a substitute for human-written contest editorials
