arXiv:2610.14115v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models have significantly lowered the barrier to writing code. Naturally, this has also led to the development of data science agents that promise automating the design and execution of data science from task formulation to model development. Existing evaluations of agentic data science (agentic DS) assess downstream predictive performance and code correctness, providing preliminary insight in agentic DS capabilities. We argue that these evaluations overlook the fundamental principles of data science: methodological data science- and domain knowledge. As such, only assessing downstream performance masks methodological failures su
