ForgeCode claims it beats Claude Code and Codex, but the fine print tells another story

Tailcall's ForgeCode tops its own TermBench 2.0 leaderboard at 81.8%, but on the independently run SWE-bench Verified it edges Codex 1 by just 0.6 points, 72.7% to 72.1%, a far narrower gap than its marketing suggests.
