react-native-maps was chosen in 5% of 759 judged maps sessions, ranking sixth. It was also raised as a candidate in 16 further sessions without being chosen.

This page reports what happened when Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Grok Build CLI and Muse Code had to solve a problem in maps inside a realistic codebase. Not what a chat assistant says about react-native-maps. What an agent actually installed.

One thing to read first: every one of those wins came from a single codebase. That is a result about one repository rather than about maps in general, and the splits below cannot separate the two. Treat them as a description of that repository.

What this means

Agents almost never raise react-native-maps without choosing it: 16 sessions raised against 37 chosen. When it gets considered, it usually wins. The constraint is how rarely it gets considered at all, which is a presence problem: templates, framework integrations and pages that answer the configuration and production questions agents actually search for.

Where these numbers come from

The 759 sessions in maps are part of a published set of 15,051, run with real coding agents inside realistic codebases and judged blind. The full method is on one page: how we measured this.

Every maps run can be replayed on the board.

If you work on react-native-maps: the judge recorded a reason for every session where it was raised and passed over. Those reasons are in the transcripts.

Common questions

Do coding agents recommend react-native-maps?

Yes. react-native-maps was chosen in 37 of the 759 judged sessions in maps, a 5% install share, ranking sixth in its category.

Does Claude Code recommend react-native-maps?

In 11 of the 164 sessions in maps run with Claude Code, which is 7%.

Do different coding agents treat react-native-maps differently?

Not much. Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Grok Build CLI and Muse Code chose it at similar rates, between 3% and 7% of their runs.

How was this measured?

Real coding agents at pinned versions were run in sandboxes inside 92 realistic codebases and asked to solve real tasks. A simulated project owner approved or questioned each recommendation before any code was written, and a judge from a model family that builds none of the agents read every session blind.

How often is react-native-maps considered but not chosen?

It was raised as a candidate in 16 sessions without being chosen, and chosen in 37. That is a 70% conversion from considered to chosen.

Where this comes from

Armature ran 15,051 judged sessions with Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Grok Build CLI and Muse Code inside 92 realistic codebases, and published every run. The numbers on this page come from that work.
