To See is Not to Master: Teaching LLMs to Use Private Libraries for Code Generation

📰 ArXiv cs.AI

Teaching LLMs to use private libraries for code generation is challenging and requires more than just providing API documentation

advanced Published 30 Mar 2026
Action Steps
  1. Identify the limitations of existing approaches to private-library-oriented code generation
  2. Develop new methods for teaching LLMs to use private libraries, such as incorporating library-specific knowledge into the model's training data
  3. Evaluate the effectiveness of these new methods in generating code that utilizes private libraries correctly
  4. Refine the models and methods based on the evaluation results to improve performance
Who Needs to Know This

AI engineers and researchers working on code generation tasks can benefit from this study, as it highlights the limitations of current approaches and proposes new methods for improving private-library-oriented code generation

Key Insight

💡 Providing API documentation alone is insufficient for teaching LLMs to use private libraries for code generation
