$\tau^\tau$-Bench: An Environment for End-To-End, Realistic Agent Construction

The paper introduces $ au^ au$-Bench, a benchmark that turns the construction of AI agents into a measurable task. In this environment a developer agent receives real business records, client requirements, a production API, an existing codebase, and constraints on cost and models, and must deliver a complete customer‑service agent. The benchmark evaluates performance by deploying the agent against simulated users, revealing that current state‑of‑the‑art models achieve only 23.9% success while an expert‑written reference scores 82.2%.

E-Commerce Bench: Evaluating LLM Agents on Long-Horizon Autonomous Business Operation

E-Commerce Bench is an open‑source benchmark that simulates a year‑long e‑commerce operation, requiring LLM agents to manage multiple online stores, negotiate with suppliers, optimize sales, fulfill orders, handle returns, and manage cash flow. The environment uses real product and supplier data, a calendar of promotions and shocks, and deterministic customer and negotiation models to enable reproducible evaluation. The study evaluates 18 state‑of‑the‑art models across seven metrics, finding no single model dominates, with GPT‑5.6 Sol achieving the highest year‑end assets but lagging in fraud avoidance and operational efficiency.
