Toward Linking Declined Proposals and Source Code: An Exploratory Study on the Go Repository
Sota Nakashima, Masanari Kondo, Mahmoud Alfadel +4
Traceability links are key information sources for software developers, connecting software artifacts. Such links play an important role, particularly between contribution artifact…
Why Agentic-PRs Get Rejected: A Comparative Study of Coding Agents
Sota Nakashima, Yuta Ishimoto, Masanari Kondo +2
Agentic coding -- software development workflows in which autonomous coding agents plan, implement, and submit code changes with minimal human involvement -- is rapidly gaining tra…
Leveraging Mutation Analysis for LLM-based Repair of Quantum Programs
Chihiro Yoshida, Yuta Ishimoto, Olivier Nourry +4
In recent years, Automated Program Repair (APR) techniques specifically designed for quantum programs have been proposed. However, existing approaches often suffer from low repair…
AILINKPREVIEWER: Enhancing Code Reviews with LLM-Powered Link Previews
Panya Trakoolgerntong, Tao Xiao, Masanari Kondo +4
Code review is a key practice in software engineering, where developers evaluate code changes to ensure quality and maintainability. Links to issues and external resources are ofte…
An empirical study on declined proposals: why are these proposals declined?
Masanari Kondo, Mahmoud Alfadel, Shane McIntosh +2
Design-level decisions in open-source software (OSS) projects are often made through structured mechanisms such as proposals, which require substantial community discussion and rev…
How Far Have LLMs Come Toward Automated SATD Taxonomy Construction?
Sota Nakashima, Yuta Ishimoto, Masanari Kondo +2
Technical debt refers to suboptimal code that degrades software quality. When developers intentionally introduce such debt, it is called self-admitted technical debt (SATD). Since…
