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.

GUI-CC is a benchmark designed to assess the contextual consistency of GUI world models when used as agent environments, rather than just one‑step next‑screen predictors. It includes two tracks: an offline reference‑action track that rolls models along real mobile GUI trajectories, and an online agent‑loop track where fixed probing agents interact with model‑generated UIs. The benchmark evaluates transition fidelity, plausibility, contextual consistency, and task progress across 500 offline trajectory tasks and 200 online tasks spanning 30 mobile apps.

arXiv:2606. 14579v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: When applying Group Relative Policy Optimization (GRPO) for GUI Grounding, rollouts are sampled from a single screenshot view; groups often become either all failures on difficult instances or all successes on easy ones, yielding no useful relative advantage.

Hybrid Computer Use (HCU) is a unified interface that enables general agents to interact with computers through three complementary channels: programmatic code and command-line tools, semantic accessibility (AX) features, and visual graphical user interfaces (GUI). The design emphasizes efficient AX interaction, batch execution, and AX diffs to reduce round trips, while a supplementary skill guides agents in selecting and coordinating these channels. On the OSWorld 2.0 benchmark, HCU outperforms other systems in both efficiency and task success, demonstrating the benefits of flexible, multi‑channel computer‑use interfaces.

ComponentBench is a new benchmark that evaluates computer‑use agents at the component level on modern web UIs. It contains 97 canonical UI components and 2,910 programmatically verified tasks, along with cleaned human reference trajectories for measuring task success and interaction efficiency. The benchmark also offers a scalable pipeline for auditing structural difficulty and synthesizing failure analyses across tasks and component families.
