UI2App: Benchmarking Visual Interaction Inference in Executable Web Application Generation
Large language models (LLMs) have demonstrated growing competence in web page generation. However, existing text-driven approaches rely on complex prompts that impose substantial demands on users and offer limited expressivity for page layout and cross-page visual coherence.

The Hard Part Comes After Search: Benchmarking Web Agents on Synthesizing, Organizing, and Displaying Knowledge
The paper introduces KNOWS, a benchmark for evaluating web agents that act as assistants by retrieving, synthesizing, and presenting information across complex, multi-step browser tasks. It outlines a task design rubric, evaluation protocol combining deterministic checks with LLM judgments, and reports that current agents achieve only modest success, with the best performing agent succeeding on less than 3% of tasks. The study highlights significant gaps in agents’ tool use, visual understanding, and long‑horizon reasoning.

Beyond NL2Code: A Structured Survey of Multimodal Code Intelligence
The paper surveys Multimodal Code Intelligence, focusing on tasks where code is generated, edited, refined, or reasoned about under visually grounded inputs such as screenshots, charts, and videos. It categorizes the field by the role of code—rendered artifact, editable structure, intermediate reasoning trace, or executable tool interface—and organizes benchmarks into four domains: Graphical User Interface, Scientific Visualization, Structured Graphics, and Frontier Tasks and Frameworks. The authors argue that reliable evaluation must include evidence of semantics and interaction beyond visual fidelity, and propose four verification-centered research directions to advance the field toward evidence-grounded executable systems.

PPTBench: Can Coding Agents Reconstruct the Visual World through Structured, Editable Slides
PPTBench is a new benchmark that tests coding agents’ ability to reconstruct scientific flow diagrams from arXiv papers into editable PowerPoint slides. The dataset contains 500 tasks, each requiring agents to produce a single PPTX page with native, editable objects, and a four‑stage Agentic Judge evaluates validity, semantic correctness, rendering quality, and fine‑grained visual quality. Across 31 model configurations, the best score is 67.80, with a median of 19.47, showing that while agents can generate valid PPTX files, they still struggle with semantic and visual accuracy, especially text details.

ATP-Bench: Towards Agentic Tool Planning for MLLM Interleaved Generation
ATP‑Bench proposes a new benchmark for evaluating agentic tool planning in multimodal large language models (MLLMs) that generate interleaved text-and-image responses. The benchmark contains 7,702 QA pairs, including 1,592 visual‑question‑answer pairs, across eight categories and 25 visual‑critical intents, all verified by humans. A Multi‑Agent MLLM‑as‑a‑Judge (MAM) system is introduced to assess tool‑call precision, missed opportunities, and overall response quality without relying on ground‑truth references.
