AI agents may assist with emails and documents, but can they reliably complete everyday online workflows on real websites? Everyday online tasks offer a realistic yet unsolved testbed for evaluating next-generation AI agents. To this end, we introduce ClawBench, an evaluation framework comprising 153 everyday online tasks common in daily life and work, spanning 144 platforms across 15 categories, from completing purchases and booking appointments to submitting job applications. These tasks require capabilities beyond existing benchmarks, such as obtaining relevant information from user-provided documents, navigating multi-step workflows across diverse platforms, and write-heavy operations like filling in many detailed forms correctly. Unlike existing benchmarks that evaluate agents in offline sandboxes with static pages, ClawBench operates on production websites, preserving the full complexity, dynamic nature, and interaction challenges of real-world web environments. An interception layer captures and blocks the final submission request, ensuring safe evaluation without real-world side effects. Our evaluations of 8 frontier models show that both proprietary and open-source models complete only a small portion of these tasks. For example, Claude Sonnet 4.6 achieves only 33.3%, which exposes gaps in current AI agents. Progress on ClawBench brings us closer to AI agents that can function as general-purpose assistants.

VLM-driven self-improvement of web code has a structural flaw: the model that proposes the repair is the model that judges it, and visual plausibility under that judge is a poor proxy for whether the page actually works. What the loop is missing is a counterparty the VLM cannot fool, and the browser already is that counterparty: a deterministic, executable simulator of how an HTML artifact behaves under user actions, and in everything but name a world model for web code. We present WEBWORLD, the interface that lets a VLM prior interact with this browser-as-world-model autonomously and decides which interactions become supervision. Each round, the VLM emits a critique that the planner compiles into a typed interaction contract; the browser re-executes the candidate and issues an acceptance certificate only when both target progress and preservation of every previously verified capability hold; certified transitions accumulate as a quality ratchet that is the only thing the SFT export ever sees. Under matched training, WEBWORLD-27B improves Raw-27B by 5.3 points on HTMLBench-400 and 14.9 points on MiniAppBench-Val, and reaches the level of strong frontier systems such as Kimi-K2.6 and GPT-5.4 on interactive HTML generation. Equal-size ablations show that browser-backed admission carries the gain: without the certificate, the matched 9B lift nearly disappears.

Recent studies suggest that video generative models can exhibit certain forms of zero-shot visual reasoning through generated frames. Yet reliable evaluation remains challenging: benchmarks should adopt inputs aligned with the visual priors of current video models, require valid evolving processes rather than only plausible final states, and calibrate task difficulty to remain challenging yet partly feasible. To this end, we introduce VGI-Bench, containing 27 tasks and 810 instances, organized by a two-level taxonomy of domains and skill tags for evaluating the visual reasoning capabilities of video generative models. Our evaluations show that current generative systems can solve a subset of visually grounded reasoning tasks, but remain far from reliable, with even the strongest model, Seedance 2.0, achieving only 51.0% under our evaluation criteria. Our findings further reveal the input sensitivity, skill-bounded transfer from synthetic fine-tuning, and limited denoising-time self-correction, where later steps mainly refine early hypotheses rather than correct reasoning errors. We hope VGI-Bench will help stimulate the development of next-generation video generative models. Data and code are available at [our project page](https://hexuan21.github.io/VGI-Bench/).

Self-evolving agents requires adaptation after deployment, but existing approaches assume a usable learning loop, such as curated skills, successful trajectories, or verifier signals. Real open-world deployments may provide none of these, offering only a task prompt. In this work, we study *open-world self-evolution*, where an agent must build both its skills and its own verification signals from scratch, using open-world resources but no target-task supervision. We propose **OpenSkill**, a framework that bootstraps this loop: it acquires grounded knowledge and verification anchors from documentation, repositories, and the web, synthesizes them into transferable skills, and refines those skills against self-built virtual tasks grounded in the anchors rather than in target answers. The open world thus supplies both the knowledge to be learned and a supervision-independent practice environment, with target-task supervision reserved for final evaluation. Across three benchmarks and two target agents, OpenSkill attains the best automated pass rate while satisfying the no-supervision constraint. Analysis shows its skills transfer across models without model-specific adaptation, and its self-built verifier aligns with ground-truth outcomes despite never accessing them.

Command-line coding agents (e.g., Claude Code, Gemini CLI) can already read and write files and sustain long sessions, yet end-to-end research still fragments across chat tools, IDEs, terminals, and writing environments, and the decisions that make it auditable are rarely preserved. We present **Dr. Claw**, an open-source workspace that wraps existing coding-agent executors in a *controllable* and *auditable* human-in-the-loop workflow rather than introducing another autonomous agent. Persistent state objects, a reusable skill library, and multi-executor coordination link human decisions to AI execution, turning planning, execution, and writing into one traceable, recoverable loop. We demonstrate Dr. Claw through an interactive three-view scenario and a failure-recovery walkthrough, and evaluate it against a bare command-line agent sharing the same backend executor, so the comparison contrasts the whole orchestration layer (task graph, state objects, and skill library) with the agent it wraps. Holding the executor fixed, Dr. Claw scores higher on research completeness while persisting an auditable, recoverable process trail.
