Large language model (LLM) agents are beginning to automate machine learning engineering (MLE) by coupling planning, code execution, debugging, and empirical feedback. Translating this capability to medical imaging remains difficult because each task imposes modality-specific experimentation and strict requirements for validation protocols and prediction artifacts.

MedBenchAgent is a multi‑agent framework that automates the entire process of constructing medical vision‑language model benchmarks, from deriving the benchmark specification to generating and auditing evaluation items. It uses a Benchmark Intermediate Representation (BIR) to encode task definitions, evidence mappings, evaluation protocols, and item specifications, separating planning from instantiation. The system achieves a Task‑Space F1 of 90.9% and demonstrates high audit pass rates, outperforming existing task induction methods and showing portability across specialized medical domains.

Benchmarking competitions are central to AI development in medical imaging, but it is unclear if they provide representative, accessible, and reusable data for clinical relevance. This study systematically examined 249 challenges (458 tasks) across 19 imaging modalities, finding limited geographic, modality, and problem-type representation. Additionally, many datasets suffer from restrictive access, ambiguous licensing, and poor documentation, hindering reproducibility and long-term reuse.
