The paper introduces CRATE, a two‑stage vision‑language model framework that evaluates mobile agents by reasoning about each step’s consequences and aggregating this evidence to assess task completion. It also presents CRATE‑S, an extension that evaluates operational safety. Experiments show CRATE and CRATE‑S outperform existing benchmarks, achieving high F1‑scores on AndroidWorld and MobileRisk datasets.

Autonomous mobile GUI agents require accurate action reflection for reliable long-horizon execution. Existing approaches rely on open-ended multimodal reasoning after each action, which is costly and poorly matched to the structured nature of GUI state transitions.

The paper introduces Evidence-First Reflection (EFR), a two-stage reflector for desktop GUI agents that separates visual difference extraction from outcome verification. EFR uses Set-of-Marks annotations to locate action sites and candidate changed regions, filters action-relevant changes, and then makes a final judgment based on cleaned evidence. Experiments on OSWorld-Verified and WindowsAgentArena show that EFR improves reflector accuracy by 7.11% and increases end-to-end task success by roughly 5–6%.

arXiv:2606. 07027v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Reinforcement Learning (RL) has become a promising approach for improving GUI Agents in long-horizon, stochastic digital environments, but trajectory-level success feedback is too sparse to provide reliable credit assignment for intermediate exploration steps.

The paper introduces AdaptRubric, a Coarse-to-Fine Rubrics Framework designed to create task‑adaptive judging criteria for GUI reward modeling. It first retrieves a category‑level coarse rubric by mapping instructions to a GUI task family, then generates an instance‑level fine rubric that captures specific values, scopes, and constraints from the instruction. Experiments show that AdaptRubric outperforms existing reward agents, improving F1 by 3.6 points and achieving a 4.23‑point task‑success gain under a matched image budget.
