LLM-Stats logged a cluster of coding-model releases on June 12 alone, continuing the month's heavy cadence. Chinese labs keep pushing fast, cheaper, code-specialized checkpoints into the same week as OpenAI's GPT-5.5 family and Google's Gemini 3.1 line. The practical effect: the coding tier is a commodity in motion. Pin a model and re-benchmark monthly, because the leader changes faster than your eval suite.
