A Unified Framework for the Evaluation of LLM Agentic Capabilities
arXiv:2605. 27898v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: As LLMs are increasingly deployed as agents, reliable assessment of their agentic capabilities has become essential.
DuMateBench is a new benchmark for autonomous agents that uses real user sessions from a large production platform, preserving interaction history, configurations, and workspace state. It contains 200 tasks across 8 scenarios and 17 capability categories, many requiring coordination of multiple capabilities. The benchmark tests agents in Docker containers with real-world complexities—Insufficient, Unstable, and Noisy—and evaluates performance with a hybrid deterministic and LLM-as-Judge protocol, revealing significant gaps in task completion across various agent frameworks and LLMs.

arXiv:2604. 13072v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: OpenClaw-style personal assistants extend LLM agents from isolated tool use to open-ended, stateful, and personalized software environments.
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. 22689v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Graphical user interface (GUI) agents are systems powered by large multimodal models (LMMs).
RealClawBench is a live benchmark framework derived from real OpenClaw developer‑agent sessions, designed to capture the distribution, diversity, and real‑world difficulty of deployed agent use. It reconstructs execution environments and uses deterministic verifiable scorers to convert real sessions into reproducible, automatically scored tasks, yielding 281 executable tasks with minimal distribution shift. Evaluation of 14 contemporary models shows the best system solves only 65.8% of tasks, highlighting significant room for improvement on realistic workloads.
arXiv:2607. 10059v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agent systems based on large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed for autonomous tasks, yet existing evaluations mostly focus on task success rather than whether agents know when to abstain.
arXiv:2605. 25160v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: GUI agents powered by large language models are advancing rapidly, creating urgent needs for evaluation and training based on realistic environments.
arXiv:2608. 15127v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Agentic applications are shifting AI serving from isolated model inference to long-running workloads in which LLMs coordinate tools, environments, and persistent state.
arXiv:2608. 00101v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: AI coding agents like GitHub Copilot, Claude Code, and Codex interleave multi-step LLM inference with tool execution, creating a workload different from chatbots.
Harness-Bench is a diagnostic benchmark that evaluates how different harness configurations affect LLM agent performance in realistic workflows. It tests 106 sandboxed offline tasks across multiple model backends, recording artifacts, execution traces, and usage statistics to analyze completion, process quality, efficiency, and failure behavior. The study finds significant variation in outcomes across model-harness pairings, indicating that agent capability should be reported at the configuration level rather than solely by the base model.
arXiv:2606. 02302v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous LLM agents increasingly operate in stateful environments where they access tools, files, memory, and external services.
UniACE is a unified framework that standardizes the evaluation of large language model (LLM) agents by representing each benchmark as an instruction–tool–environment triplet and running models through a shared, task‑agnostic harness in isolated runtimes. It preserves native success criteria, offers an offline mode for dynamic‑resource tasks, and standardizes efficiency metrics, execution records, and failure attribution. Applying UniACE to 7 benchmarks across 24 domains and 15 models revealed significant score shifts, ranking reversals, and sensitivity to evidence representation, highlighting the impact of evaluation configuration on reported agent performance.
