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.

arXiv:2607. 29586v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The Abstraction and Reasoning Corpus (ARC) tests whether a model can infer an unseen transformation from a few input-output examples and apply it to a new grid.

The paper surveys Multimodal Code Intelligence, focusing on tasks where code is generated, edited, refined, or reasoned about under visually grounded inputs such as screenshots, charts, and videos. It categorizes the field by the role of code—rendered artifact, editable structure, intermediate reasoning trace, or executable tool interface—and organizes benchmarks into four domains: Graphical User Interface, Scientific Visualization, Structured Graphics, and Frontier Tasks and Frameworks. The authors argue that reliable evaluation must include evidence of semantics and interaction beyond visual fidelity, and propose four verification-centered research directions to advance the field toward evidence-grounded executable systems.

OmniHarness is a framework that enables generalizable visual generation by learning symbolic policies from verified executions. It abstracts shared procedures and applicability conditions, allowing these policies to be instantiated, adapted, and composed for new tasks while keeping model parameters fixed. The system uses intermediate verification for refinement, self-directed inquiry to generate practice tasks, and continuous feedback to expand capabilities, achieving strong results on multiple benchmarks and outperforming baselines on Creative tasks.

Code4Scene is a benchmark that evaluates coding agents on constructing and editing 3D scenes in Unreal Engine. It tests agents on two tasks: construction, where they must build a scene from open‑ended language, and editing, where they must recover a target scene from reference images while preserving everything else. The benchmark measures task fulfillment, artifact integrity, and physical validity, revealing that construction and editing performance are correlated but not interchangeable, with agents struggling most with spatial composition and precise edits.

AgenticCADedit introduces a stateful, tool‑mediated approach to multimodal 3D CAD editing, transforming the process from generating a single complete program to executing a sequence of incremental, verifiable actions on a persistent CAD state. By committing each step, inspecting geometry, and selectively reverting faulty operations, the method preserves partial progress and builds upon earlier edits. Experiments across three large language models show substantial gains in validity and acceptance, with the weakest baseline model’s validity rising from 51.0% to 94.8% and a token‑cost reduction of 66.7% compared to neuralCAD‑Edit.

FACET is a framework for synthesizing terminal tasks that preserves source intent and ensures cross‑artifact consistency. It reconstructs agent skills into coherent scenarios, repairs the execution environment, and uses the resulting container state as shared grounding for the instruction, solution, and verifier. By validating and repairing artifacts through execution, FACET produces complex tasks with dense executable checks and data‑efficient supervision, improving performance on Terminal‑Bench 2.1.
