Work2Skill is a framework that captures human GUI experience to induce reusable agent skills. It introduces WorkRecorder, an infrastructure that aligns screen recordings, mouse and keyboard events, and accessibility-tree data, and uses it to build WorkDemo-350, the first synchronized multimodal dataset of 350 human desktop GUI demonstrations. The proposed skill‑induction method extracts workflow rules, step dependencies, and completion checks, achieving higher scores and success rates than baseline methods on MyPCBench and OSWorld benchmarks.

AgentHorizon is a benchmark comprising 1,373 computer‑use tasks with instruction‑trajectory pairs collected from 166 hours of human‑recorded activity across three operating systems. The benchmark uses a paired design that swaps instructions to create negative tasks, testing judges’ ability to distinguish successful trajectories from those that completed a similar but incompatible request. Eleven judges were evaluated, with GPT‑5.5 achieving the highest balanced accuracy of 80.9% on the full trajectory subset, while tool‑use benefits some models but harms others, revealing large variability in judges’ performance.

The paper introduces Trace, a framework that transforms sparse-reward trajectories into executable walkthroughs by identifying progress anchors, propagating credit, and estimating action prerequisites. Trace compiles noisy trajectories into state‑conditioned, verifiable procedures that remove loops and detours, enabling reuse, intermediate‑state resumption, and programmatic verification. Experiments on J‑TTL, WebShop, and ScienceWorld with three open‑source LLMs show that Trace outperforms eight baselines, improving average AUC and Final‑$3$ by 30.0% and 40.5% while using fewer inference tokens.
