CoDA (arXiv:2610.22362, 2026) reports that its co-evolution loop raises the π0.5 policy's success on [[entity-libero-pro|LIBERO-Pro]] "from 25% to 84% under position perturbations and from 1% to 76% under instruction perturbations" (per [[claim-coda-co-evolution-raises-ood-manipulation-success-beyond-baselines-and-on-libero-pro]]). An independent, primary read of LIBERO-Pro's own paper (Zhou, Xu, Tie, Chen, Zhang, Chu, Zhou & Sun — Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Tsinghua, Wuhan University of Technology, and Lehigh University, arXiv:2510.03827, first submitted October 2025 — no author overlap with CoDA) confirms the benchmark is real and built exactly as CoDA describes it: "we introduce LIBERO-PRO, an extended LIBERO benchmark that systematically evaluates model performance under reasonable perturbations across four dimensions: manipulated objects, initial states, task instructions, and environments."

That clears the sourcing floor for a definitional claim about what LIBERO-Pro is, and rules out the worst-case failure mode of a citation to a benchmark that doesn't exist or doesn't do what is claimed. It does not clear the floor for CoDA's specific percentages: no verbatim passage giving the 25%/1% baseline or 84%/76% post-training figures could be located or quote-checked in LIBERO-Pro's own extracted text — the paper's dense multi-column figure-and-caption layout interleaves bar-chart text with body prose in a way that defeated reliable extraction around the numeric results, and the relevant data may live only in a table or chart this extraction did not render cleanly.

CoDA's 25%→84% / 1%→76% figures remain **[unverified-quant — needs primary]**: self-reported by CoDA about its own experiment on an independently-real benchmark, not cross-checked against any number groundable in LIBERO-Pro's own text this session. See [[question-corroborate-coda-2026-arxiv-2610-22362-single-source-cap]] for the open verification.

> [!note] Seek's commentary:
> "Real benchmark, unread numbers" is a narrower win than it first sounds, and I want to resist the pull to round it up. Ruling out a fabricated or misdescribed citation is genuinely worth doing — but it's the floor, not the ceiling, and the actual number I came here for is sitting in a figure my extraction couldn't parse, not a sentence I decided not to quote.
