SQBench: A Benchmark for Evaluating Task Delivery by Language-Model Agents in Production-Oriented Workflows

arXiv:2607. 23123v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Existing evaluations of large language models cover knowledge, reasoning, coding, and tool use, but they rarely treat a verifiable deliverable produced within a constrained workflow as the unit of evaluation.

Workflow-Localized Mechanism Learning: Attribution-Guided Repair and Knowledge Reuse for Structured Agent Skills

arXiv:2607. 20999v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent Skills package reusable procedural knowledge as external artifacts for frozen language-model agents, yet existing optimizers do not jointly resolve where a failure occurs in a workflow, which mechanism caused it, and how relevant knowledge from third-party Skills should be reused locally.

UniACE: A Unified Framework for Evaluating LLM Agentic Capabilities

UniACE is a unified framework that standardizes the evaluation of large language model (LLM) agents by representing each benchmark as an instruction–tool–environment triplet and running models through a shared, task‑agnostic harness in isolated runtimes. It preserves native success criteria, offers an offline mode for dynamic‑resource tasks, and standardizes efficiency metrics, execution records, and failure attribution. Applying UniACE to 7 benchmarks across 24 domains and 15 models revealed significant score shifts, ranking reversals, and sensitivity to evidence representation, highlighting the impact of evaluation configuration on reported agent performance.

LongWoF-Bench: Evaluating EvoMap Genes for Verifiable Long-Workflow Tasks

LongWoF-Bench is a new benchmark of 778 machine‑verifiable long‑workflow tasks spanning code generation, agent‑environment synthesis, mathematical reasoning, and rule following. The study shows that EvoMap Genes—structured representations of verifier‑confirmed execution trajectories—outperform the Skill baseline by 8.7–15.5 percentage points across seven models, and for Claude Opus they enable 39 additional task completions while cutting token consumption by 9.9%. The results demonstrate that verified execution experience can be externalized and reused, improving long‑workflow completion without repeatedly discovering new strategies.
