The paper introduces ASIL, an Agent‑Software Interaction Layer that replaces traditional screenshot‑and‑click interfaces with structured JSON observations and code‑executable semantic actions. ASIL is implemented across 15 applications and evaluated on 300 single‑application and 80 multi‑application tasks, achieving over 80% success with fewer than five actions per task. The structured interface also improves training efficiency, boosting performance of Qwen models from 58–66% to 72–80% with small‑scale supervised fine‑tuning and further gains with on‑policy reinforcement learning.

arXiv:2608. 02352v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Native computer use offers a general interface for agents to operate almost any software available to people, but requires long-horizon state tracking, large-scale interactive experience, and learning from sparse yet verifiable outcomes.
CUA-Universe is a scalable environment-to-data pipeline that transforms real desktop software into hybrid GUI+CLI environments, enabling agents to coordinate visual inspection with command-line operations. It includes App-Forge for reproducible VMs and CLI surfaces, Task-Weave for generating diverse hybrid tasks, and Path-Steer for efficient rollouts and trajectory harvesting. Training on this data improves agent success and efficiency across multiple benchmarks, demonstrating the value of hybrid interaction.

arXiv:2606. 09426v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Computer-use agents (CUAs) increasingly operate in runtimes that combine visual desktop control, command-line execution, code editing, browsers, and external tools.
arXiv:2607. 14443v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Computer-use agents are becoming capable software operators, but their interface to desktop applications is still often a brittle motor layer: they look at screenshots, predict coordinates, click, and hope that the visible state changed as intended.
arXiv:2606. 24551v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Computer-use agents can execute software tasks through either graphical interfaces or programmatic command interfaces, but existing evaluations confound interaction modality with differences in tasks, initial states, verifiers, and permitted actions.
arXiv:2608. 15930v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Foundation GUI agents can automate complex digital tasks, but deployment is hindered by scarce and biased training data, ambiguous prompts, and unreliable execution.
OpenClaw has emerged as a leading agent framework for complex task automation, yet it faces insufficient cross-platform GUI interaction support and a well-built self-evolution mechanism. These flaws limit its adaptation to diverse device ecosystems and prevent performance improvements through continuous learning from execution experience.
arXiv:2606. 28480v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As large language models and harness frameworks continue to advance, agents operating in terminals are increasingly capable of performing a broader range of general computer-use tasks beyond coding.
arXiv:2606. 13239v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Existing computer-use agents remain fundamentally limited in professional software manipulation: GUI-based agents suffer from fragile visual grounding and long-horizon error accumulation, while API-basedapproaches struggle with heterogeneous protocols and inaccessible commercial interfaces.
The paper introduces the State-Path Tool Menu, a method that presents agents with a short, ordered subset of tools before execution, ensuring that both the final action and its prerequisite tools are available in a usable sequence. By learning a pre‑execution route from the request state to the desired outcome, the menu acts as an execution prior, encoding which tools can run from the current state, how outputs satisfy later inputs, and recurring orders from training paths. Experiments on ToolBench show that this approach boosts online success from 0.737 to 0.898 and outperforms several baselines while covering more complete tool chains with fewer tools.
