PR #24627 ↗ · matplotlib/matplotlib · · merged Dec 7, 2022 · +16−1 · base 9d22ab09d52d
Agent prompt
what a new run launched now would send
cla(), clf() should unset the `.axes` and `.figure` attributes of deparented artists
mpl2.0b3: Removing an artist from its axes unsets its `.axes` attribute, but clearing the axes does not do so.
```
In [11]: f, a = plt.subplots(); l, = a.plot([1, 2]); l.remove(); print(l.axes)
None
In [12]: f, a = plt.subplots(); l, = a.plot([1, 2]); a.cla(); print(l.axes)
Axes(0.125,0.11;0.775x0.77)

Work only inside this repository checkout. Make the code change the task
describes, keeping the diff focused — no drive-by refactors.
When you are done, leave your changes committed or in the working tree;
they are collected automatically.
Stay on this snapshot checkout (`task/ycb_matplotlib_pr24627`). Never checkout, pull, or rebase onto `main`. That branch is a README-only orphan.
Stay on this HEAD. Do not fetch another default branch. Push only on the Cursor-created `crazy-cursor/…` side branch from this HEAD.
Some past runs of this task were launched with a different prompt (the prompt template changed since, or those runs predate this benchmark's stored prompt). Each run persists the exact prompt it sent at launch — that per-launch record is the audit trail; this page shows only the current one.
