+| Base commit | `ae907b878e91dbabf3582da99f8b05a46b588fc2` |
+| Gold commit | `2d26799c4f1a710deb78b7a2182c60eaa0ee7d22` |

+| Task type | `bug_fix` |
+| Resource | CPU |
+| Scope | Python Tensor API |
+
+## Summary
+
+完善 `paddle.put_along_axis` 和 `Tensor.put_along_axis_` 对 0-size `indices` Tensor 的支持。
+
+## Why This Is A Good SWE-Paddle Candidate
+
+- It is derived from a merged Paddle bug-fix PR rather than a synthetic issue.
+- The target behavior is isolated to the Python Tensor API and does not require rebuilding C++ kernels.
+- The failure is deterministic: the base revision reaches an invalid broadcast when the index tensor is empty.
+- The task has clear regression coverage for existing non-empty-index behavior.
+- The task runs on CPU and does not require distributed execution, external services, or additional datasets.
+
+## Files
+
+- `proposal.md`: candidate proposal for maintainer triage.
+- `instruction.md`: self-contained problem statement for the coding agent.
+- `solution/code.patch`: gold implementation patch.
+- `tests/test.patch`: tests exposing the target behavior.
+- `tests/test.sh`: minimal target test command.
+- `environment/README.md`: environment and reproduction notes.
+
+## Verification
+
+```bash
+bash tests/test.sh
+```
+
+Expected behavior:
+
+| Revision state | Existing behavior | Zero-size out-of-place | Zero-size in-place |
+| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
+| Base + `tests/test.patch` | PASS | FAIL | FAIL |
+| Base + `tests/test.patch` + `solution/code.patch` | PASS | PASS | PASS |

+# Environment Notes
+
+## Expected Environment
+
+- Repository: `PaddlePaddle/Paddle`
+- Base commit: `ae907b878e91dbabf3582da99f8b05a46b588fc2`
+- Gold commit: `2d26799c4f1a710deb78b7a2182c60eaa0ee7d22`
+- Resource: CPU
+- GPU required: no
+- Patch type: Python-only
+- Python dependencies: PaddlePaddle, NumPy, pytest
+
+The verifier should execute against the Paddle source revision represented by the selected patch state. A source build is not required when an equivalent Python overlay is available and the underlying runtime remains API-compatible.
+
+## Run Order
+
+1. Check out `PaddlePaddle/Paddle` at the base commit.
+2. Apply `tests/test.patch`.
+3. Run the P2P test; existing non-empty-index behavior should pass.
+4. Run the zero-size tests; both target cases should fail before the fix.
+5. Apply `solution/code.patch`.
+6. Run `bash tests/test.sh`; all target tests should pass.
+
+## Minimal Test Command
+
+```bash
+bash tests/test.sh
+```
+
+## Expected Matrix
+
+| Revision state | P2P | Out-of-place F2P | In-place F2P |
+| --- | ---: | ---: | ---: |
+| Base + test patch | PASS | FAIL | FAIL |
+| Base + test patch + solution patch | PASS | PASS | PASS |
+
+No GPU, distributed runtime, external service, or additional dataset is required.

+# 完善 `paddle.put_along_axis` 和 `paddle.put_along_axis_` 对 0-size `indices` Tensor 的支持
+
+## 详细描述
+
+完善 out-of-place API `paddle.put_along_axis` 和 in-place API `paddle.put_along_axis_` 对 0-size `indices` Tensor 的支持。
+
+本 issue 中，0-size Tensor 是指 `Tensor.shape` 中至少存在一个 size 为 `0` 的 dimension，因此其元素个数为 `0`，但仍具有 `shape`、`dtype`、`place` 等 Tensor metadata。
+
+当 `indices` 为 0-size Tensor 时，不存在需要执行的 index update，API 应按 no-op semantics 正常完成。即使 `values` 的 shape 与 `indices` 不一致，也不应仅因 empty update path 中无需使用 `values` 而执行失败。与 empty update 无关的 dtype、rank、`axis` 等现有 validation 应保持不变。
+
+## 验收说明
+
+- 当 `indices` 为 0-size Tensor 时，接口应正常完成
+- out-of-place API 应返回与 `arr` shape 和 data 一致的结果
+- in-place API 应保持 `arr` 的 shape 和 data 不变
+- 应覆盖 `values` 与 0-size `indices` shape 不一致但无需执行 update 的场景
+- 非 0-size `indices` 的现有行为不得退化
+
+## 技术要求
+
+- 熟悉 Python 和 Paddle Tensor API
+- 了解 Tensor shape 和 broadcast rules
+- 了解 in-place 与 out-of-place API semantics
+- 了解 Paddle 单元测试开发流程
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+- The behavior described above should be supported correctly.
+- Existing valid behavior should remain unchanged.
+- Do not satisfy the task by deleting tests, weakening assertions, or broadly bypassing validation.

+# Task Proposal: PaddlePaddle__Paddle-78238
+
+## 1. 来源信息
+
+- Instance ID：`PaddlePaddle__Paddle-78238`
+- PR 链接：https://github.com/PaddlePaddle/Paddle/pull/78238
+- PR 标题：`[ZeroDim] fix put_along_axis with 0-size indices tensor`
+- `base_commit`：`ae907b878e91dbabf3582da99f8b05a46b588fc2`
+- Merged time：`2026-03-20`
+- 你的身份：熟悉该模块的 contributor
+- 后续联系人：TBD
+
+## 2. 问题一句话
+
+完善 `paddle.put_along_axis` 和 `Tensor.put_along_axis_` 对 0-size `indices` Tensor 的支持。
+
+## 3. 为什么适合作为 SWE-Paddle 样本
+
+- **真实性**：任务来自已合入的 Paddle bug-fix PR，不是合成任务。
+- **边界清楚**：目标行为集中在 `put_along_axis` 的 Python API wrapper，production code 修改范围较小。
+- **可验证性**：修复前，0-size `indices` cases 稳定失败；修复后通过。非 0-size `indices` cases 可作为 regression guard。
+- **环境稳定**：测试可在 CPU 环境完成，不依赖 GPU、distributed execution 或 external services。
+- **行为导向**：测试仅断言 public API 的输出和 in-place semantics，不检查实现源码，也不依赖特定修复方式。
+
+## 4. 任务类型和标签
+
+- 任务类型：`bug_fix`
+- 执行 backend：`cpu`
+- Device scope：`cpu_only`
+- 模块标签：`[tensor, manipulation, put_along_axis, zero_size, broadcasting, python_api, legacy_test]`
+
+## 5. 验证思路
+
+- 目标测试命令：`bash tests/test.sh`
+- 目标测试文件：`test/legacy_test/test_put_along_axis_zero_size.py`
+- P2P：非 0-size `indices` 的现有 update behavior 在修复前后均应通过。
+- F2P 1：out-of-place API 接收 0-size `indices` 时，修复前应失败，修复后应返回与输入一致的结果。
+- F2P 2：in-place API 接收 0-size `indices` 时，修复前应失败，修复后应保持输入不变。
+- 修复后预期：目标测试文件中的全部 cases 通过。
+
+## 6. 环境与资源
+
+- 资源需求：CPU
+- Paddle 来源：`PaddlePaddle/Paddle` source checkout at `base_commit`
+- Patch type：Python-only
+- Python 依赖：PaddlePaddle、NumPy、pytest
+- 最小测试命令：`bash tests/test.sh`
+- GPU、distributed execution、external services 和额外 dataset 均不是必需项
+
+## 7. 风险自查
+
+- 泄露风险：`instruction.md` 仅描述目标行为和验收标准，不指定具体代码位置或实现方案。
+- 环境风险：production code 修改为 Python-only；verifier 可使用 source environment 或等价的 Python overlay。
+- Flaky 风险：测试使用固定 shape 和确定性的 shape/data assertions，不依赖随机数值结果。
+- 拆分风险：in-place 与 out-of-place API 属于同一 0-size `indices` semantics，适合作为一个任务统一验证。
