    OSWorld-Science tests 12 VLMs on 146 scientific-software tasks: the strongest agent averages 73.7% and only 40% on the hardest set

    The work introduces OSWorld-Science, a benchmark and evaluation environment combining expert-defined scientific tasks, artifact-based execution graders, and a shared agent harness, and evaluates 12 vision-language models across 7 scientific domains, 17 software packages, and 3 languages, finding that the strongest model, Claude Fable 5.1, averages 73.7% and about 40% on the hardest task set, with failures concentrated in the interaction layer and result verification rather than in scientific reasoning itself.

    EngiWorld tests 1,301 real engineering tasks and finds the strongest model reaches only 44.3 EngiScore, with 3.6% success on multi-software attempts

    The authors built EngiWorld, a benchmark structured around the complete engineering design loop, with 1,301 expert-curated tasks across 6 domains (CAD, CAE, CAM, BIM, EDA, and 3D visualization) and 26 professional software platforms, evaluated through a unified domain-verifier suite that checks geometric validity, physical feasibility, and rule compliance of final and intermediate artifacts; across seven frontier models the strongest reaches an EngiScore of only 44.3, and just 3.6% of multi-software attempts succeed.

    HybridCUA lets a 9B agent reach 53.6% on OSWorld by mixing GUI and CLI, 14.8 points above its base model

    The work builds HybridCUA-8K, a data pipeline of 5,000 GUI-only, CLI-only, and interleaved GUI–CLI trajectories plus 3,000 verified RLVR tasks, and a two-stage framework of supervised fine-tuning followed by online reinforcement learning with CLI-aware rewards; the resulting HybridCUA-9B reaches 53.6% accuracy on OSWorld (14.8 points above its Qwen3.5-9B base, with average steps falling from 31.6 to 14.0) and 36.0% on WindowsAgentArena (a 4.0-point gain).
