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.
arXiv:2608. 03979v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce Video-DeepResearch (Video-DR), extending multimodal agents from static images to continuous video streams, a setting that demands dense spatiotemporal grounding coupled with open-web exploration.

VideoResearcher is a training‑free, multi‑agent framework that autonomously designs, tests, and refines high‑impact tools for long‑video understanding. It operates through dual Solving and Evolving loops, analyzing tool‑use trajectories to identify gaps, coordinating specialized agents to develop and validate executable tools, and reusing evolved tools to improve evidence acquisition in subsequent reasoning. The approach achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance among self‑improving agents and approaches the human‑designed upper bound, demonstrating a paradigm that expands agent capabilities while reducing costly manual engineering.
arXiv:2609.12818v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Long video understanding often behaves like a visual needle-in-a-haystack problem: query-relevant evidence is sparsely distributed across long temporal...
