UI videos provide a natural input for generating interactive webpages, as they capture both webpage appearance and action-triggered state transitions. However, directly applying video-capable vision-language models to this task remains insufficient. Existing models typically rely on sparse sampling or compressed temporal representations, which may miss short action boundaries and break the state-action-state transitions needed to implement webpage behavior. We formulate UI video-to-code generation as executable state-transition recovery from interaction videos, and identify this failure mode as state-transition misalignment. We introduce Video2Code, an action-aware video-to-code approach for recovering executable UI state transitions. Rather than allocating the visual budget uniformly across the video, Video2Code first performs coarse video understanding to locate action-critical regions, then invokes a temporal clipping tool to revisit these regions at higher temporal resolution before generating HTML/CSS/JavaScript code. We instantiate Video2Code with action-aligned video-code supervision and evaluate it under both visual and functional criteria. Experiments show that Video2Code substantially strengthens the underlying open-source model for UI video-to-code generation, improving functional correctness over direct video observation, especially on dense multi-step interactions.

Large language models (LLMs) conventionally represent text as sequences of discrete tokens, making long-context scaling largely a matter of processing more tokens more efficiently.We instead explore a complementary direction: increasing how much original context each token represents.To this end, we introduce Glyph, a framework that renders long texts into compact visual pages and processes them with a vision-language model (VLM), allowing a fixed context window to cover substantially more text.To make visual compression practical, Glyph combines continual pre-training on rendered long-text data, an LLM-driven genetic search to identify rendering configurations that balance compression and task performance, and post-training with supervised fine-tuning and reinforcement learning.Across multiple long-context benchmarks, Glyph achieves 3–4× token compression while maintaining performance comparable to strong text-only LLMs such as Qwen3-8B, with over 4× faster prefilling and decoding and 2× faster supervised fine-tuning.Under more aggressive compression, a VLM with a 128K context window can handle tasks that would otherwise require up to 1M input tokens.Our code and model are released at https://github.com/thu-coai/Glyph.
