Step-5-Preview Tested: Stable Outputs and Strong Agent Loop
Stability across repeated agent runs is the standout trait here, which matters for anyone running long agent loops where flaky outputs compound. The model's rule-exploiting behaviour in the rider test suggests it is well suited to optimisation-heavy tasks under explicit constraints. Developers building agentic coding workflows should compare it against current SOTA models, while front-end and 3D work still call for alternatives.
