We envision a proactive multi-modal assistant system which gives users real-time step-by-step guidance on a procedural task, autonomously deciding \textit{when} to interrupt, and \textit{how} to coach. However, progress is limited by the absence of large-scale, cross-domain benchmarks that reflect realistic conditions, particularly the common case in which users deviate from the expected step sequence.

The paper introduces the Agent-Editing World Model (AEWM), a new approach that models how reasoning and actions influence future task progress instead of simulating tool responses. AEWM includes an Action Judge that classifies decisions as Critical, Exploratory, or Noisy, and a State Revision mechanism that edits noisy reasoning–action continuations from the same observed history. The integrated system, EditAct, directly updates the underlying state during real execution, leading to significant performance gains across multiple benchmarks and agent backbones.

OmniAssistBench is a new benchmark for evaluating omni-modal large language models (Omni-LLMs) as real‑time video assistants that actively guide users toward goals. The benchmark addresses the challenge of dynamic interaction paths by providing models with predefined priors from source videos, forcing them to follow the same routes as users. The dataset was constructed by reverse‑engineering existing Internet videos into multi‑turn clips, a process that required over 1,000 expert person‑hours. Results show that proprietary Gemini‑3‑Pro scores 66.4/100 while open‑source Qwen3‑Omni‑Instruct scores 51.2, revealing that current models often give incorrect or incomplete answers, struggle with visual prompts, and fail to maintain context or delay responses until target events.
