Rendering-in-the-Loop: An Execution-Driven Agent for Interactive Web Development

RILA is an execution‑driven agent that integrates browser rendering into the generation loop for interactive web development. It uses an Action Interaction Verification module to replay reference interactions on generated pages, collecting execution‑aware observations, and an Execution‑aware Rendering Score to jointly assess interaction correctness and visual fidelity during iterative optimization. A data synthesis pipeline further augments training data, enabling RILA to significantly improve interaction and visual quality across foundation models, even outperforming larger one‑shot generators.

LongWebBench: Evaluating Structural and Functional Webpage Generation in Long-Horizon Settings

arXiv:2606. 17727v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent vision-language models (VLMs) have shown promising progress in generating webpages from visual inputs, yet existing evaluations mainly focus on short, single-screen, and largely static webpages.

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.

Rehearsed Multi-Agent Live Product Demonstrations with Real-Time Voice Question Answering

arXiv:2606. 30294v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Live product demonstrations are a recurring, high-cost activity in software organizations: a human presenter must select features, dispatch the corresponding interactions on a running application, narrate them coherently, and answer questions in real time.

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.
