Abstract

We introduce 3DCodeVerse, a research ecosystem that enables coding agents to create editable and verifiable 3D content at scale. 3DCodeVerse comprises large-scale, high-quality datasets of executable 3D code, a coding harness for spatial reasoning and automated verification, and practical guidance for 3D coding. First, we construct 3DCodeVerse-2M, a large-scale curated dataset of standalone 3D executable code. We build this corpus by collecting open-source data, converting specialized representations, and generating new programs with coding agents. Each program is packaged with the source files and associated assets required for execution in its declared environment, along with available descriptions and verification records. Second, we develop the 3DCodeVerse Harness, a multi-agent directed acyclic graph framework for generating and refining 3D content. It uses execution checks, spatial measurements, and visual feedback to automatically evaluate and revise generated programs without human feedback during generation. Third, we conduct systematic empirical studies of 3D coding, establishing baselines with fine-tuned open models and deriving practical guidance through component-level analyses of our harness. Extensive experiments demonstrate that fine-tuning on our dataset significantly improves the 3D coding capabilities of open-source models. Notably, our 3DCodeVerse harness achieves a 90% win rate against Claude Design (3D Object) in pairwise human evaluations, when both are utilized by Claude Opus 5.5.

The editor's rubric

Heuristic review

DimensionLevelWeightWhat that level means
Leverage███░░ 324%A method or resource many groups across the field will adopt within a year.
Magnitude██░░░ 218%Solid incremental gain on a meaningful problem.
Evidence███░░ 314%Solid: multiple benchmarks or cohorts, ablations, fair baselines, released code or data.
Novelty██░░░ 216%A new combination of known ideas.
Trajectory██░░░ 218%Some room to improve with obvious engineering.
Stakes██░░░ 210%Benefits a professional community (practitioners, clinicians, engineers).

Editor’s rationale

Heuristic triage from title and abstract text only, not a reading of the paper. Cues found: method (we propose); verification (error bars, human evaluation, code released); scale (scalable); stakes (general AI).
