AI agents are driving a new software paradigm, with the ability to autonomously call tools, extract information, manage memory, and complete tasks that span applications and data sources. Most existing end-user operating systems, however, are designed for application-centric workflows and offer little native support for AI agents.
arXiv:2607. 13027v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) agents have moved beyond generating responses to executing multi-step tasks by calling tools, observing the results, and iteratively deciding the next action.
JarvisGUI is a new benchmark that tests GUI agents on cross-device workflows involving Android, Windows, and Ubuntu, requiring transfer of intermediate results and coordination across heterogeneous platforms. It formulates tasks as input-output transformations under a lightweight type system, enabling automatic composition of multi-step, cross-device workflows and dynamic evaluation within a unified framework. The benchmark reveals that state-of-the-art open-source GUI agents struggle with state-transfer awareness, cross-platform contextual reasoning, and long-horizon dependency management, exposing a critical capability gap invisible to existing benchmarks.

arXiv:2608. 08939v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The rise of autonomous AI agents represents a major paradigm shift in how users interact with mobile devices.
The paper introduces DroidTool, a framework that enables Android GUI agents to automatically generate and integrate tool actions—Python functions that manipulate application states—into their hybrid action space. DroidTool follows an agentic workflow with stages of proposal, implementation, test generation, execution, and repair, and it constructs relational tests to ensure comprehensive verification. Experiments on benchmarks such as AndroidWorld, B-MoCA, and MobileSafetyBench show that agents using DroidTool’s self-generated tools outperform GUI-only agents by about 4.47% in performance while reducing interactions by roughly 20.05%.
arXiv:2607. 28629v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The rapid transition from reactive large language models (LLMs) to persistent, action-capable systems has exposed critical gaps in the architectural understanding of Agentic AI, particularly in separating inference, orchestration, and execution layers for autonomous AI agents.
arXiv:2604. 14228v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Claude Code is an agentic coding tool that can run shell commands, edit files, and call external services on behalf of the user.
MobileWorldSafety is a benchmark that evaluates the safety of large language model–powered GUI agents on Android by exposing them to 142 real-world risk tasks involving environmental injection attacks. The benchmark uses a two‑stage verification pipeline—rule‑based checks for clear cases and an LLM judge for ambiguous ones—to distinguish safety failures from capability failures. Experiments on six agents show high vulnerability, with attack success rates between 40.4% and 66.9%, highlighting that current agents often fail to remain safe when faced with adversarial content presented as normal mobile context.
The paper introduces GMA, a new benchmark for evaluating general mobile assistants in realistic, challenging scenarios. GMA expands on existing benchmarks by offering seven open‑source applications across diverse domains and 300 tasks organized into four difficulty tiers, ranging from simple actions to complex multi‑step workflows. The authors evaluate eight state‑of‑the‑art models, showing that performance drops sharply with task complexity, and conduct ablation studies on harness design—such as context retention and state tracking—to demonstrate how these choices can improve outcomes, especially for demanding workflows.
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.
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.
Traditional operating systems were designed around deterministic programs, explicit control flow, and human initiated workflows. Their core abstractions processes, threads, system calls, files, and permissions assume bounded behavior and predictable interaction patterns.
